Interest Expense for such period;


 


provided,
however, that Consolidated Interest Expense shall be adjusted to give effect on a pro forma basis to any Debt that has been Incurred,
repaid or redeemed by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than revolving credit borrowings Incurred for working capital purposes
unless, in connection with any such repayment, the commitments to lend associated with such revolving credit borrowings are permanently

or any Restricted Subsidiary as if in each case such Debt had been Incurred, repaid or redeemed on the first day of such period; provided,
however, that in making such computation, the Consolidated Interest Expense attributable to interest on any proposed Debt bearing
a floating interest rate shall be computed on a pro forma basis as if the rate in effect on the date of computation had been the applicable
rate for the entire period; and provided, further, that, in the event the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries has
made Asset Dispositions or acquisitions of assets not in the ordinary course of business (including acquisitions of other Persons by merger,
consolidation or purchase of Capital Stock) during or after such period, such computation shall be made on a pro forma basis as if the
Asset Dispositions or acquisitions had taken place on the first day of such period; provided, however, that any such Asset
Dispositions or acquisitions of assets having an aggregate consideration value of less than $5.0 million shall not be calculated on a
 “pro forma basis.” For purposes of this definition, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to any calculation under this

expenditure for a future period); provided that, if any such non-cash charges, write-downs or items represent an accrual or reserve for
potential cash items in any future period, (A) the Issuer may determine not to add back such non-cash-charges, writedowns or items
in the current period and (B) to the extent the Issuer does decide to add back such non-cash charges, write-downs or items, the cash

SECTION 1.4.        Financial
Calculations for Committed Debt, Limited Condition Transactions and Otherwise.


 


In connection with the Incurrence
or issuance, as applicable, of (x) revolving Debt under Section 4.9 or (y) any commitment relating to the Incurrence or
issuance of Debt or Preferred Stock under Section 4.9 and/or the granting of any Lien to secure any of the foregoing, the Issuer
or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary may designate such Incurrence or issuance and/or the granting of any Lien therefor as having occurred
on the date of first Incurrence of such revolving Debt or commitment (such date, the “Deemed Date”), and any related
subsequent actual Incurrence or issuance and/or granting of such Lien therefor will be deemed for all purposes under the Indenture to
have been Incurred or issued and granted on such Deemed Date, including, without limitation, for purposes of calculating the Consolidated
Coverage Ratio, usage of any baskets hereunder (if applicable), the Total Leverage Ratio, the Secured Leverage Ratio and Trailing Consolidated
EBITDA (and all such calculations on and after the Deemed Date until the termination or funding of such commitment or until such election
is rescinded shall be made on a pro forma basis giving effect to the deemed Incurrence or issuance, the granting of any Lien therefor
as if all such Debt remains outstanding).


 






    -24-


     


    

 


When calculating the availability
under any basket or ratio under this Indenture or compliance with any provision of this Indenture in connection with any Limited Condition
Transaction and any actions or transactions related thereto (including acquisitions, Investments, the Incurrence or issuance of Debt
and the use of the proceeds thereof, the Incurrence of Liens, repayments, Restricted Payments and Asset Dispositions), in each case, at
the option of the Issuer (the Issuer’s election to exercise such option, an “LCT Election”), the date of determination
for availability under any such basket or ratio and whether any such action or transaction is permitted (or any requirement or condition
therefor is complied with or satisfied (including as to the absence of any Default or Event of Default)) under this Indenture shall be
deemed to be the date (the “LCT Test Date”) the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Transaction are entered
into (or, if applicable, the date of delivery of an irrevocable notice, declaration of a dividend or similar event) and if, after giving
pro forma effect to the Limited Condition Transaction and any actions or transactions related thereto (including acquisitions, Investments,
the Incurrence or issuance of Debt and the use of proceeds thereof, the Incurrence of Liens, repayments, Restricted Payments and Asset
Dispositions) and any related pro forma adjustments, the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries would have been permitted to take
such actions or consummate such transactions on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with such ratio, test or basket (and any related
requirements and conditions), such ratio, test or basket (and any related requirements and conditions) shall be deemed to have been complied
with (or satisfied) for all purposes; provided that (a) compliance with such ratios, tests or baskets (and any related requirements
and conditions) shall not be determined or tested at any time after the applicable LCT Test Date for such Limited Condition Transaction
and any actions or transactions related thereto (including acquisitions, Investments, the Incurrence or issuance of Debt and the
use of proceeds thereof, the Incurrence of Liens, repayments, Restricted Payments and Asset Dispositions) and (b) Consolidated EBITDA
for purposes of the Consolidated Coverage Ratio will be calculated using an assumed interest rate based on the indicative interest margin
contained in any financing commitment documentation with respect to such Debt or, if no such indicative interest margin exists, as reasonably
determined by the Issuer in good faith.


 


For the avoidance of doubt,
if the Issuer has made an LCT Election, (1) if any of the ratios, tests or baskets for which compliance was determined or tested
as of the LCT Test Date would at any time after the LCT Test Date have been exceeded or otherwise failed to have been complied with as
a result of fluctuations in any such ratio, test or basket, including due to fluctuations in Consolidated EBITDA of the Issuer, such baskets,
tests or ratios will not be deemed to have been exceeded or failed to have been complied with as a result of such fluctuations (and no
Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred due to such failure to comply), and (2) in calculating the availability
under any ratio, test or basket in connection with any action or transaction unrelated to such Limited Condition Transaction following
the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or the date
that the definitive agreement or date for redemption, purchase or repayment specified in an irrevocable notice for such Limited Condition
Transaction is terminated, expires or passes, as applicable, without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such ratio,
test or basket shall be determined or tested giving pro forma effect to such Limited Condition Transaction.


 


ARTICLE II

THE NOTES


 


SECTION 2.1.        Form and
Dating. The Notes shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto. The Notes may have notations, legends
or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or usage. Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication. The Notes
will be issued in registered form, without coupons, and in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.
The registered Holder will be treated as the owner of such Note for all purposes.


 


The terms and provisions contained
in the Notes shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture, and the Issuer and the Trustee, by their execution
and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the extent any provision
of any Note conflicts with the express provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling.


 


(a)            The
Notes shall be issued initially in the form of one or more Global Notes, which shall be deposited on behalf of the purchasers of the Notes
represented thereby with the Note Custodian, and registered in the name of the Depositary or a nominee of the Depositary, duly executed
by the Issuer and authenticated by the Trustee as hereinafter provided.


 


Each Global Note shall represent
such of the outstanding Notes as shall be specified therein, and each shall provide that it shall represent the aggregate amount of outstanding
Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby may from time to time
be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges, redemptions and transfers of interests. Any endorsement of a Global Note
to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby shall be made by the Trustee
or the Note Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, in accordance with instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.6.


 






    -25-


     


    

 


(b)            The
Initial Notes are being issued by the Issuer only (i) to “qualified institutional buyers” (as defined in Rule 144A
under the Securities Act (“Rule 144A”)) (“QIBs”) and (ii) in reliance on Regulation S
under the Securities Act (“Regulation S”). After such initial issuance, Initial Notes that are Transfer Restricted
Notes may be transferred to QIBs in reliance on Rule 144A, outside the United States pursuant to Regulation S, to IAIs or to the
Issuer, in accordance with certain transfer restrictions. Initial Notes that are offered in reliance on Rule 144A shall be issued
in the form of one or more permanent Global Notes substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A and bear the Restricted
Notes Legend (collectively, the “Rule 144A Global Note”), deposited with the Note Custodian, duly executed by
the Issuer and authenticated by the Trustee as hereinafter provided. Initial Notes that are offered in offshore transactions in reliance
on Regulation S shall be issued in the form of one or more permanent Global Notes substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A
and bear the Regulation S Legend (collectively, the “Regulation S Global Note”), deposited with the Note Custodian,
duly executed by the Issuer and authenticated by the Trustee as hereinafter provided. Initial Notes resold to IAIs in the United States
shall be issued in the form of one or more permanent Global Notes substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A and bear
the Restricted Notes Legend (collectively, the “Institutional Accredited Investor Note”), deposited with the Note Custodian,
duly executed by the Issuer and authenticated by the Trustee as hereinafter provided. The aggregate principal amount of each Global Note
may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Note Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee.
Transfers of Notes among QIBs, to or by purchasers pursuant to Regulation S and to or by IAIs shall be represented by appropriate increases
and decreases to the respective amounts of the appropriate Global Notes, as more fully provided in Section 2.15.


 


(c)            Section 2.1(b) shall
apply only to Global Notes deposited with or on behalf of the Depositary.


 


The Issuer shall execute and
the Trustee shall, in accordance with this Section 2.1 and Section 2.2, authenticate and deliver the Global Notes that (i) shall
be registered in the name of the Depositary or the nominee of the Depositary and (ii) shall be delivered by the Trustee to the Depositary
or pursuant to the Depositary’s instructions or held by the Note Custodian for the Depositary.


 


SECTION 2.2.        Execution
and Authentication. An Officer shall sign the Notes for the Issuer by manual, electronic, facsimile or PDF transmission signature.


 


If an Officer whose signature
is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time a Note is authenticated, the Note shall nevertheless be valid.


 


A Note shall not be valid
until authenticated by the manual or electronic signature of a Responsible Officer of the Trustee. The signature of a Responsible Officer
of the Trustee shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been authenticated under this Indenture.


 


The Trustee shall, upon receipt
of a written order of the Issuer signed by an Officer of the Issuer (an “Authentication Order”) directing the Trustee
to authenticate the Notes and an Officer’s Certificate stating that all conditions precedent to the issuance of the Notes contained
herein have been complied with, authenticate Notes for original issue in the aggregate principal amount stated in such written order.


 


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


 


SECTION 2.3.        Registrar;
Paying Agent. The Issuer shall maintain (i) an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or
for exchange (“Registrar”) and (ii) an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment to a Paying Agent.
The Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange. The Issuer may appoint one or more co-registrars
and one or more additional Paying Agents. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar, and the term “Paying Agent”
includes any additional Paying Agent. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Issuer and/or
any Restricted Subsidiary may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.


 






    -26-


     


    





 


The Issuer shall notify the
Trustee in writing, and the Trustee shall notify the Holders, of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. The
Issuer shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Issuer fails to appoint or
maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, or fails to give the foregoing notice, the Trustee shall act as such, and shall be entitled to appropriate
compensation in accordance with Section 7.6.


 


The Issuer initially appoints
the Trustee to act as the Registrar and Paying Agent at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee.


 


The Issuer initially appoints
DTC to act as the Depositary with respect to the Global Notes.


 


SECTION 2.4.         Paying
Agent to Hold Money in Trust. The Issuer shall require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying
Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of the Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal,
premium or interest on the Notes, and shall notify the Trustee of any Default by the Issuer in making any such payment. While any such
Default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay to the Trustee all money held by it in trust for the benefit of the Holders
or the Trustee. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it in trust for the benefit of the Holders
or the Trustee to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries)
shall have no further liability for such money. If the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and
hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon the occurrence of any of the events
specified in Section 6.1, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Notes.


 


SECTION 2.5.         Holder
Lists. The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names
and addresses of all Holders. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee at least seven (7) Business
Days before each interest payment date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such
date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Holders, including the aggregate principal amount of the
Notes held by each Holder thereof.


 


SECTION 2.6.         Book-Entry
Provisions for Global Notes.


 


(a)            Each
Global Note shall (i) be registered in the name of the Depositary for such Global Notes or the nominee of such Depositary, (ii) be
delivered by the Trustee to the Depositary or pursuant to the Depositary’s instructions or held by the Note Custodian for the Depositary
and (iii) bear the Global Note legends as required by Section 2.6(e).


 


Members of, or Participants
in, the Depositary shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by the Depositary, or
the Note Custodian, or under such Global Note, and the Depositary may be treated by the Issuer, and the Trustee or any Agent and any of
their respective agents, as the absolute owner of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever under this Indenture. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Issuer, the Trustee or any Agent or their respective agents from giving effect to any written
certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary or impair, as between the Depositary and its Participants, the
operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of an owner of a beneficial interest in any Global Note.


 


Neither the Trustee nor any
Agent shall have any responsibility or obligation to any Holder that is a member of (or a Participant in) the Depositary or any other
Person with respect to the accuracy of the records of the Depositary (or its nominee) or of any member or Participant thereof, with respect
to any ownership interest in the Notes or with respect to the delivery of any notice (including any notice of redemption) or the payment
of any amount or delivery of any Notes (or other security or property) under or with respect to the Notes. The Trustee and any Agent may
conclusively rely (and shall be fully protected in relying) upon information furnished by the Depositary with respect to its members,
Participants and any beneficial owners in the Notes.


 






    -27-


     


    

 


Neither the Trustee nor any
Agent shall have any responsibility for any actions taken or not taken by the Depositary.


 


(b)            Transfers
of a Global Note shall be limited to transfers of such Global Note in whole, but not in part, to the Depositary, its successors or their
respective nominees. Interests of beneficial owners in a Global Note may be transferred in accordance with Section 2.15 and the rules and
procedures of the Depositary. In addition, certificated Notes shall be transferred to beneficial owners in exchange for their beneficial
interests only if (i) the Depositary notifies the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the Global
Notes and a successor depositary is not appointed by the Issuer within 90 days of such notice, (ii) the Depositary ceases to be a
 “clearing agency” registered under the Exchange Act and a successor depositary is not appointed by the Issuer within 90 days
of such notice, (iii) an Event of Default of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has written notice has occurred and is continuing
and the Registrar has received a request from any Holder of a Global Note to issue such certificated Notes or (iv) the Issuer, in
its sole discretion, notifies the Trustee in writing that it elects to cause the issuance of certificated Notes.


 


(c)            In
connection with the transfer of an entire Global Note to beneficial owners pursuant to Section 2.6(b), such Global Note shall be
deemed to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver
to each beneficial owner identified by the Depositary in exchange for its beneficial interest in such Global Note an equal aggregate principal
amount of certificated Notes of authorized denominations.


 


(d)            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 which a Holder is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Notes.


 


(e)            Each
Global Note shall bear the Global Note Legend on the face thereof.


 


(f)            At
such time as all beneficial interests in Global Notes have been exchanged for certificated Notes, redeemed, repurchased or cancelled,
all Global Notes shall be returned to or retained and cancelled by the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.11. At any time prior
to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for certificated Notes, redeemed, repurchased or cancelled,
the principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note shall be reduced accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global
Note, by the Trustee or the Note Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, to reflect such reduction.


 


(g)            General
Provisions Relating to Transfers and Exchanges:


 


 (1)           To
permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Global Notes and certificated
Notes upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.2 or at the Registrar’s request.


 


 (2)           No
service charge shall be made to a Holder for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient
to cover any stamp or transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such stamp or transfer
taxes or similar governmental charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Section 2.7, Section 2.10, Section 3.6,
Section 4.10, Section 4.13 or Section 9.4).


 


 (3)           All
Global Notes and certificated Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Global Notes or certificated Notes shall be
the valid obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Global Notes
(or interests therein) or certificated Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.


 


 (4)           The
Registrar is not required (A) to issue, to register the transfer of or to exchange Notes during a period beginning at the opening
of business 15 days before the day of any selection of Notes under Section 3.2 hereof and ending at the close of business on the
day of such selection, (B) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except
the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part, or (C) to register the transfer of or to exchange a Note between a record
date and the next succeeding interest payment date.


 






    -28-


     


    

 


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


 


 (6)           The
Trustee shall authenticate Global Notes and certificated Notes in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.2. Except as provided
in Section 2.6(b), neither the Trustee nor the Registrar shall authenticate or deliver any certificated Note in exchange for a Global
Note.


 


 (7)           Each
Holder agrees to indemnify the Issuer and the Trustee against any liability that may result from the transfer, exchange or assignment
of such Holder’s Note in violation of any provision of this Indenture and/or applicable United States federal or state securities
law.


 


 (8)           Neither
the Trustee nor any Agent shall have any obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on
transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note (including any
transfers between or among Participants or beneficial owners of interests in any Global Note) other than to require delivery of such certificates
and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by the terms of, this Indenture,
and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.


 


 (9)            The
transferor of any Note held in certificated form shall provide or cause to be provided to the Trustee all information necessary to allow
the Trustee to comply with any applicable tax reporting obligations, including without limitation any cost basis reporting obligations
under Section 6045 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The Trustee may conclusively rely on information provided to
it and shall have no responsibility to verify or ensure the accuracy of such information.


 


SECTION 2.7.         Replacement
Notes. If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee, the Registrar or the Issuer and the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction
of the ownership and destruction, loss or theft of any Note, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication
Order, shall authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements are met. An indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder
that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Issuer to protect the Issuer, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating
agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Issuer, the Trustee and the Agents may charge for their expenses
in replacing a Note.


 


Every replacement Note is
an additional obligation of the Issuer and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with
all other Notes duly issued hereunder.


 


SECTION 2.8.         Outstanding
Notes. The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those cancelled by it, those delivered
to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof,
and those described in this Section 2.8 as not outstanding. Except as set forth in Section 2.9, a Note does not cease to be
outstanding because the Issuer, the Subsidiary Guarantors or any of their respective Affiliates holds the Note.


 


If a Note is replaced pursuant
to Section 2.7, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by
a protected purchaser.


 


If the principal amount of
any Note is considered paid under Section 4.1 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue.


 






    -29-


     


    

 


If the Paying Agent (other
than the Issuer, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds, on the maturity date or date of redemption, money sufficient to pay
all amounts under the Notes payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes shall be deemed to be no longer outstanding and
shall cease to accrue interest.


 


SECTION 2.9.         Treasury
Notes. In determining whether the Holders of the required aggregate principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver
or consent, Notes owned by the Issuer, the Subsidiary Guarantors or by any of their respective Affiliates shall be considered as though
not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction,
waiver or consent, only Notes of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has written notice as being so owned shall be so disregarded.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Notes that are to be acquired by the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer pursuant to an exchange offer,
tender offer or other agreement shall not be deemed to be owned by such entity until legal title to such Notes passes to such entity.


 


SECTION 2.10.       Temporary
Notes. Until certificated Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication
Order, shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of certificated Notes but may have variations
that the Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Notes. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer shall prepare and the Trustee shall
upon receipt of a written order of the Issuer signed by one Officer, authenticate certificated Notes in certificate form in exchange for
temporary Notes.


 


Holders of temporary Notes
shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture.


 


SECTION 2.11.       Cancellation.
The Issuer at any time may deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated and delivered hereunder or which
the Issuer may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Notes so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. All Notes
surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange or payment, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, shall be delivered
to the Trustee. The Trustee and no one else shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement
or cancellation. Subject to Sections 2.7 and 2.16, the Issuer may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has redeemed or paid or
that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. All cancelled Notes held by the Trustee shall be disposed of in accordance with
its customary practice.


 


SECTION 2.12.       Defaulted
Interest. If the Issuer defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it shall pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus,
to the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date,
which date shall be the earliest practicable date but in all events at least five (5) Business Days prior to the payment date, in
each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.1; provided that no special record date shall be required with
respect to any defaulted interest that is paid within the applicable grace period. The Issuer shall fix or cause to be fixed each such
special record date and payment date and shall promptly thereafter notify the Trustee of any such date. At least 15 days before the special
record date, the Issuer (or the Trustee, in the name and at the expense of the Issuer) shall mail or cause to be mailed to Holders a notice
that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid. The Trustee will have no duty
whatsoever to determine whether any defaulted interest is payable or the amount thereof.


 


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


 


SECTION 2.14.       CUSIP
and ISIN Numbers. The Issuer in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP” and “ISIN” numbers, and, if it does so,
the Trustee shall use the CUSIP and/or ISIN number in notices of redemption or exchange as a convenience to Holders; provided that
any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of such numbers printed in the notice or on
the Notes and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption or exchange
shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers, and, provided further that the Trustee shall have no liability
for any defect in the “CUSIP” numbers as they appear on any Note, notice or elsewhere. The Issuer shall promptly notify the
Trustee in writing of any change in the CUSIP number and ISIN number.

(c)            In
the event that a Global Note is exchanged for Notes in certificated, registered form pursuant to Section 2.6, such Notes may be exchanged
only in accordance with such procedures as are substantially consistent with the provisions of clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 2.15
(including the certification requirements intended to ensure that such transfers comply with Rule 144A or Regulation S, as the case
may be) and such other procedures as may from time to time be adopted by the Issuer and notified to the Trustee in writing.


 


(d)           Restricted

Counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer to the effect that neither such legend nor the related restrictions on transfer are required
in order to maintain compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act.


 


(e)            Regulation
S Legend. Upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes not bearing the Regulation S Legend, the Registrar shall deliver Notes

acknowledges the restrictions on transfer of such Note set forth in this Indenture and in the Restricted Notes Legend or the Regulation
S Legend, as applicable, and agrees that it shall transfer such Note only as provided in this Indenture. A transfer of a beneficial interest
in a Global Note that does not involve an exchange of such interest for a certificated Note or a beneficial interest in another Global
Note shall be subject to compliance with applicable law and the applicable procedures of the Depositary but is not subject to any procedure
required by this Indenture.


 


In connection with any proposed
transfer pursuant to Regulation S or pursuant to any other available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act
(other than pursuant to Rule 144A), the Issuer may require the delivery of an Opinion of Counsel, other certifications or other information
satisfactory to the Issuer.


 


The Registrar shall retain
copies of all letters, notices and other written communications received pursuant to this Section 2.15.


 


SECTION 2.16.       Issuance

Notes, other than with respect to the date of issuance, issue price, first interest payment date applicable thereto, first date from which
interest will accrue, transfer restrictions, any registration rights agreement and additional interest with respect thereto; provided
that such issuance is not prohibited by the terms of this Indenture, including Section 4.9 and provided, further,
that if any Additional Notes are not fungible with the existing Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as determined by the Issuer,
such Additional Notes will have a separate CUSIP number and ISIN number. The Initial Notes and any Additional Notes shall be treated as
a single class for all purposes under this Indenture.


 






    -32-


     


    

 


With respect to any Additional
Notes, the Issuer shall set forth in an Officer’s Certificate, a copy of which shall be delivered to the Trustee, the following
information:


 


 (1)            the
aggregate principal amount of such Additional Notes to be authenticated and delivered pursuant to this Indenture;


 


 (2)            the
issue price, the issue date, the CUSIP and/or ISIN number of such Additional Notes, the first interest payment date and the amount of
interest payable on such first interest payment date applicable thereto and the date from which interest shall accrue;


 


 (3)            whether
such Additional Notes shall be Transfer Restricted Notes; and


 


 (4)            that
such issuance is not prohibited by this Indenture.


 


The Trustee shall, upon receipt
of the Officer’s Certificate, an Authentication Order and an Opinion of Counsel confirming that all conditions precedent to the
authentication and delivery of the Additional Notes have been satisfied and stating that the Additional Notes are the legal, valid and
binding obligation of the Issuer, subject to the customary exceptions, authenticate the Additional Notes in accordance with the provisions
of Section 2.2 of this Indenture.


 


ARTICLE III

REDEMPTION AND PREPAYMENT


 


SECTION 3.1.         Notices
to Trustee. If the Issuer elects to redeem Notes pursuant to the optional redemption provisions of Section 3.7, it shall furnish
to the Trustee, at least five Business Days (or such shorter period as is acceptable to the Trustee) before sending a notice of such redemption,
an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the (i) paragraph of the Notes and/or section of this Indenture pursuant to which the
redemption shall occur, (ii) redemption date (which, in the case of a redemption subject to conditions, may be subject to extension
until such conditions are satisfied), (iii) principal amount of Notes to be redeemed and (iv) redemption price or method for
determining the redemption price.


 


SECTION 3.2.         Selection
of Notes to Be Redeemed. In the event that less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee shall select the
Notes (or portions of Notes) to be redeemed among the Holders in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities
exchange, if any, on which the Notes are listed or, if the Notes are not then listed on a national security exchange, on a pro rata basis
or by lot (except that any Notes represented by a Global Note will be selected by such method the Depositary may require); provided,
however, that no Notes of $2,000 in original principal amount or less shall be redeemed in part and no portion of a Note shall
be redeemed that would result in the Note remaining outstanding having a principal amount that is not a multiple of $1,000. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary stated herein, to the extent any such Notes are held in the form of Global Notes, the Notes to be redeemed shall
be selected in accordance with the applicable procedures and requirements of DTC.


 


SECTION 3.3.         Notice
of Redemption. The Issuer shall mail or cause to be mailed (in each case sent by first class mail) in accordance with Section 11.1
and, in the case of Global Notes given in accordance with DTC procedures, a notice of redemption pursuant to Section 3.7 to each
Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address (with a copy to the Trustee), at least 10 days but not more than 60 days
before the expected redemption date (except that notices may be delivered more than 60 days before a redemption date if the notice is
issued in accordance with Article VIII).


 


The notice shall identify
the Notes to be redeemed (including the name of the Notes, the series, “CUSIP” numbers and corresponding “ISINs,”
if applicable, interest rate, maturity date and, if known, certificate numbers) and shall state:


 


 (1)            the
redemption date (which, in the case of a redemption subject to conditions, may be subject to extension until such conditions are satisfied);


 






    -33-


     


    

 


 (2)            the
redemption price (or the method by which it is to be determined);


 


 (3)            if
any Note is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Note to be redeemed and that, after the redemption date,
upon surrender of such Note, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion shall be issued upon cancellation
of the original Note (or appropriate adjustments to the amount and beneficial interests in a Global Note will be made, as appropriate);


 


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


 


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


 


 (6)            that,
unless the Issuer defaults in making such redemption payment, interest, if any, on Notes called for redemption ceases to accrue on and
after the redemption date;


 


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


 


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


 


 (9)            any
conditions precedent to such redemption.


 


At the Issuer’s written
request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Issuer’s name and at the Issuer’s expense; provided,
however, that the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least five Business Days prior to the date of the giving of the
notice of redemption (or such shorter period as is acceptable to the Trustee), an Officer’s Certificate requesting that the Trustee
give such notice and setting forth the information to be stated in the notice as provided in the preceding paragraph and confirming that
all conditions precedent to the redemption, if any, have been satisfied. The notice sent in the manner herein provided shall be deemed
to have been duly given whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case, failure to give such notice or any defect in the
notice to the Holder of any Note shall not affect the validity of the proceeding for the redemption of any other Note.


 


SECTION 3.4.         Effect
of Notice of Redemption. Subject to the next paragraph, once notice of redemption is delivered in accordance with Section 3.3,
Notes called for redemption become due and payable on the redemption date at the applicable redemption price.


 


Any redemption notice may,
at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to the satisfaction or waiver of one or more conditions precedent, including completion of
an Equity Offering or other corporate transaction. In addition, if such redemption is subject to satisfaction or waiver 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.
The Issuer shall provide written notice, in the form of an Officer’s Certificate, of the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions,
the delay of such redemption date or the rescission of such notice of redemption to the Trustee no later than the redemption date, and
upon receipt the Trustee shall provide such notice to each holder of the Notes in the same manner in which the notice of redemption was
given.


 


SECTION 3.5.         Deposit
of Redemption Price. On or before 11:00 a.m.  (New York City time) on the redemption date, the Issuer shall deposit with the
Trustee or with the Paying Agent (other than the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer) money sufficient to pay the redemption price, together
with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable redemption date on all Notes to be redeemed on that date.
The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall promptly return to the Issuer any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Issuer
in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption price and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable
redemption date on all Notes to be redeemed.


 






    -34-


     


    

 


If the Issuer has deposited
with the Trustee or Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption price of, and unpaid and accrued interest, if any, on, all Notes
to be redeemed, then on and after the redemption, interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption
(regardless of whether certificates for such securities are actually surrendered). If a Note is redeemed on or after an interest record
date but on or prior to the related interest payment date, then any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name
such Note was registered at the close of business on such record date. If any Note called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender
for redemption because of the failure of the Issuer to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal
from the redemption until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each
case, at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.1.


 


SECTION 3.6.         Notes
Redeemed in Part. Upon surrender and cancellation of a Note that is redeemed in part, the Issuer shall issue and, upon the written
request of an Officer of the Issuer, the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder at the expense of the Issuer a new Note equal in principal
amount to the unredeemed portion of the Note surrendered and canceled; provided that each such new Note will be in a principal
amount of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.


 


SECTION 3.7.         Optional
Redemption.


 


(a)            The
Notes may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time prior to September 15, 2024 at the option of the Issuer,
at a redemption price equal to 100.0% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and
unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant
regular record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date). The Issuer will, prior to such redemption date, provide
written notice executed by an officer of the Issuer of the Treasury Rate and Applicable Premium, including the calculations thereof in
reasonable detail.


 


(b)            At
any time or from time to time on or after September 15, 2024, the Issuer, at its option, may redeem the Notes in whole or in part,
at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed) set forth below, together with accrued
and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the
relevant regular record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date), if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning
September 15 of the years indicated below:


 


	Year	 	Redemption Price	 
	2024	 	 	101.938	%
	2025	 	 	100.969	%
	2026 and thereafter	 	 	100.000	%



 


(c)            In
the event that on or before September 15, 2024, the Issuer receives net cash proceeds from one or more Equity Offerings, the Issuer
may use an amount not greater than the amount of such net cash proceeds to redeem up to 40% of the original aggregate principal amount
of all Notes issued (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of Additional Notes) at a redemption price of 103.875% of the principal
amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable redemption date (subject to the rights of
Holders of Notes on the relevant regular record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date); provided that:


 


 (1)            at
least 50.0% of the original aggregate principal amount of all Notes issued (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of Additional
Notes) remains outstanding after each such redemption; and


 


 (2)            the
redemption date occurs not more than 180 days after the date of the consummation of any such Equity Offering.


 


(d)            Nothing
herein shall limit the ability of the Issuer or its Affiliates to purchase or acquire Notes in open market purchases, tender or exchange
offers or other negotiated transactions.


 






    -35-


     


    

 


(e)            If
Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in connection
with any tender offer or other offer to purchase the Notes (including pursuant to a Change of Control Offer, Alternate Offer or an offer
to purchase with the proceeds from any Asset Disposition) and the Issuer, or any other Person making such offer in lieu of the Issuer,
purchases all of the Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn by such Holders, the Issuer will have the right, upon not less than
10 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, to redeem all Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price
in cash equal to the applicable price paid to Holders in such purchase, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the
redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant regular record date to receive interest due on the relevant
interest payment date).


 


ARTICLE IV

COVENANTS


 


SECTION 4.1.         Payment
of Notes.


 


(a)            The
Issuer shall pay or cause to be paid the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes on the dates and in the manner provided
in the Notes. Principal, premium, if any, and interest shall be considered paid for all purposes hereunder on the date the Trustee or
the Paying Agent (if other than the Issuer or a Subsidiary thereof) holds, as of 11:00 a.m.  (New York City time) on the relevant
payment date, U.S. dollars deposited by the Issuer in immediately available funds and designated for and sufficient to pay all such principal,
premium, if any, and interest then due.


 


(b)            The
Issuer shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal at the rate
equal to the then applicable interest rate on the Notes to the extent lawful; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest
in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace period), at the
same rate to the extent lawful.


 


SECTION 4.2.         Maintenance
of Office or Agency. The Issuer shall maintain an office or agency in the United States where Notes may be surrendered for registration
of transfer or for exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors in respect of the Notes
and this Indenture may be served. The Issuer shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location,
of such office or agency. If at any time the Issuer shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish
the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust
Office of the Trustee.


 


The Issuer may also from time
to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and
may from time to time rescind such designations; provided that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the
Issuer of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in the United States for such purposes. The Issuer shall give prompt written
notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.


 


The Issuer hereby designates
the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee as one such office or agency of the Issuer in accordance with Section 2.3.


 


SECTION 4.3.         Provision
of Financial Information.


 


(a)            Whether
or not the Issuer is subject to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, or any successor provision thereto, the Issuer
shall provide to the Trustee and, upon request, Holders the annual reports, quarterly reports and other reports which the Issuer would
have been required to file with the SEC pursuant to such Section 13(a) or 15(d), or any successor provision thereto, if the
Issuer were so required, such documents to be provided to the Trustee and Holders on or prior to the respective dates (the “Required
Filing Dates”) by which the Issuer would have been required to file such documents with the SEC if the Issuer were so required
(after giving effect to all applicable grace periods under the Exchange Act and the rules, regulations and orders of the SEC thereunder);
provided that any such reports and documents filed with the SEC pursuant to its Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval
system (“EDGAR”) (or any successor system) or made publicly available on the Issuer’s website shall be deemed
to have been delivered to the Trustee and the Holders of Notes for purposes of the foregoing requirements; provided, that the Trustee
shall have no obligation whatsoever to determine if such filings have been made. The reports so provided will be prepared in all material
respects with the rules and regulations of the SEC with respect to such reports, except they need not contain the information that
would be required by Items 3-09, 3-10, 3-16, 13-01 or 13-02 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the SEC.


 






    -36-


     


    

 


(b)            So
long as any of the Notes remain outstanding, if at any time the Issuer is not subject to Section 13(a) or 15(d) under the
Exchange Act, the Issuer will make available to any prospective purchaser of Notes or beneficial owner of Notes, upon their request, the
information required by Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act until such time as the Holders of the Notes, other than Holders
that are Affiliates of the Issuer, are able to sell all such Notes immediately without restriction pursuant to the provisions of Rule 144
under the Securities Act, or any successor provision thereto.


 


(c)            In
the event that any direct or indirect parent company of the Issuer becomes a guarantor of the Notes, the Issuer may satisfy its obligations
under this Section 4.3 with respect to financial information relating to the Issuer by furnishing financial information relating
to such parent company; provided that the same is accompanied by consolidating information that explains in reasonable detail the
differences between the information relating to such parent, on the one hand, and the information relating to the Issuer and its Subsidiaries
on a standalone basis, on the other hand.


 


(d)            Any
and all Defaults or Events of Default arising from a failure to furnish in a timely manner any information required by this covenant shall
be deemed cured (and the Issuer shall be deemed to be in compliance with this covenant) upon furnishing such information as contemplated
by this covenant (but without regard to the date on which such financial statement or report is so furnished).


 


(e)            Delivery
of reports and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute
actual or constructive knowledge or notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including
the Issuer’s or any Subsidiary Guarantor’s, as the case may be, compliance with any of its covenants under this Indenture
(as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officer’s Certificates of the Issuer). The Trustee shall have no obligation
or responsibility to determine whether the Issuer is required to file any reports or other information with the SEC, whether the Issuer’s
information is available on EDGAR (or any successor system) or whether the Issuer has otherwise delivered any notice or report in accordance
with the requirements specified in this Section 4.3.


 


SECTION 4.4.         Compliance
Certificate. The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year beginning with the fiscal
year ending December 26, 2021, an Officer’s Certificate stating that a review of the activities of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries
during the preceding fiscal year has been made under the supervision of the signing Officer with a view to determining whether each has
kept, observed, performed and fulfilled its obligations under this Indenture, and further stating, as to such Officer signing such certificate,
that, to his or her knowledge, each entity has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and every covenant contained in this Indenture
and is not in default in the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture (or, if a Default
or Event of Default shall have occurred, describing all such Defaults or Events of Default of which he or she may have knowledge and what
action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto).


 


The Issuer shall, so long
as any of the Notes are outstanding, deliver to the Trustee, within 30 days after any Officer becomes aware of any Default or Event of
Default, an Officer’s Certificate specifying such Default or Event of Default and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to

SECTION 4.6.         Stay,
Extension and Usury Laws. The Issuer and each of the Subsidiary Guarantors covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that

provided,
however, that at the time of, and after giving effect to, any Restricted Payment permitted under clauses (10), and (11), no Default

(c)            The
amount of net proceeds from any exchange for, conversion into or sale of Capital Stock of the Issuer pursuant to clause (2) of Section 4.7(b) shall
be excluded from the calculation of the amount available for Restricted Payments pursuant to clause (a)(iii)(2) of Section 4.7.
For purposes of determining compliance with this covenant, (A) a Restricted Payment or Permitted Investment need not be permitted
solely by reference to one category of permitted Restricted Payments (or any portion thereof) or Permitted Investments (or any portion
thereof) described in the above clauses or the definitions thereof but may be permitted in part under any combination thereof and (B) in
the event that a Restricted Payment (or any portion thereof) or Permitted Investment (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of one
or more of the categories of permitted Restricted Payments (or any portion thereof) or Permitted Investments (or any portion thereof)
described in the above clauses or the definitions thereof, the Issuer may, in its sole discretion, divide, classify or reclassify, or
later divide, classify or reclassify, such permitted Restricted Payment (or any portion thereof) or Permitted Investment (or any portion
thereof) in any manner that complies with this covenant and at the time of division, classification or reclassification will be entitled
to only include the amount and type of such Restricted Payment (or any portion thereof) or Permitted Investment (or any portion thereof)
in one of the categories of permitted Restricted Payments (or any portion thereof) or Permitted Investments (or any portion thereof) described
in the above clauses or the definitions thereof. In the event that a Restricted Payment (or any portion thereof) or Investment (or any
portion thereof) is divided, classified or reclassified under the Cumulative Credit or clause (10) of Section 4.7(b) (such
clauses, the “Incurrence Clauses”), the determination of the amount of such Restricted Payment or Investment that may
be made pursuant to the Incurrence Clauses shall be made without giving pro forma effect to any substantially concurrent Restricted Payment
(or any portion thereof) or Investment (or any portion thereof) divided, classified or reclassified under any of the above clauses other
than an Incurrence Clause or the incurrence of Debt to finance any such Restricted Payment (or any portion thereof) or Investment (or
any portion thereof).


 


(d)            In
connection with any commitment, definitive agreement, declaration, notice, action or similar event relating to the payment or making of
an Investment or Restricted Payment, the Issuer or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary may designate such Investment or Restricted Payment
as having occurred on the date of the commitment, definitive agreement, declaration, notice, action or similar event relating thereto
(such date, the “Election Date”) if, after giving pro forma effect to such Investment or Restricted Payment and all
related transactions in connection therewith and any related pro forma adjustments, the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries would
have been permitted to make such Investment or Restricted Payment on the relevant Election Date in compliance with the Indenture, and
any related subsequent actual declaration, payment or making of such Investment or Restricted Payment will be deemed for all purposes
under the Indenture to have been made on such Election Date, including, without limitation, for purposes of calculating any ratio, compliance
with any test, usage of any baskets hereunder (if applicable) and Consolidated EBITDA and for purposes of determining whether there exists
any Default or Event of Default (and all such calculations on and after such Election Date until the termination, expiration, passing,
rescission, retraction or rescindment of such commitment, definitive agreement, declaration, notice, action or similar event shall be
made on a pro forma basis giving effect thereto and all related transactions in connection therewith).


 


(e)            For
purposes of this Section 4.7, if a particular Restricted Payment involves a non-cash payment, including a distribution of assets,
then such Restricted Payment shall be deemed to be an amount equal to the cash portion of such Restricted Payment, if any, plus an amount
equal to the Fair Market Value of the non-cash portion of such Restricted Payment.

SECTION 4.8.         Limitation
on Dividend and Other Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries.


 


(a)            The
Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause or suffer to exist
or become effective any encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary:


 


 (1)            to
pay dividends (in cash or otherwise) or make any other distributions in respect of its Capital Stock owned by the Issuer or any other
Restricted Subsidiary or pay any Debt or other obligation owed to the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary (it being understood that
the priority of any Preferred Stock in receiving dividends, distributions or liquidating distributions prior to dividends, distributions
or liquidating distributions being paid on Capital Stock shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make distributions on Capital
Stock and any subordination of any obligation to any other obligation shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to pay any Debt
or other obligation);


 


 (2)            to
make loans or advances to the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary; or


 


 (3)            otherwise
to transfer any of its property or assets to the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary.


 


(b)            Notwithstanding
the restrictions in Section 4.8(a), the Issuer may, and may permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, suffer to exist any such encumbrance
or restriction:


 


 (1)            pursuant
to any agreement in effect on the Issue Date (including the Amended Credit Agreement);


 


 (2)            pursuant
to this Indenture, the Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees;


 


 (3)            pursuant
to an agreement relating to any Debt Incurred by or Capital Stock of a Person (other than a Restricted Subsidiary existing on the Issue
Date or any Restricted Subsidiary carrying on any of the businesses of any such Restricted Subsidiary) prior to the date on which such
Person became a Restricted Subsidiary and outstanding on such date and not Incurred in connection with, or anticipation of, becoming a
Restricted Subsidiary, which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other
than the Person so acquired; provided, that the Incurrence of such Debt was permitted under Section 4.9;


 


 (4)            pursuant
to an agreement effecting a renewal, refunding, replacement, refinancing or extension of Debt Incurred pursuant to an agreement referred
to in clause (1) or (3) of this Section 4.8(b); provided, however, that the provisions contained in such
renewal, refunding, replacement, refinancing or extension agreement relating to such encumbrance or restriction are not materially more
restrictive, taken as a whole, than the provisions contained in the agreement being renewed, refunded, replaced, refinanced or extended;


 


 (5)            in
the case of a restriction described in clause (3) of Section 4.8(a), contained in any security agreement (including a finance
lease) securing Debt of a Restricted Subsidiary otherwise permitted under this Indenture, but only to the extent such restrictions restrict
the transfer of the assets or property subject to such security agreement; provided that any such encumbrance or restriction is
released to the extent the underlying Lien is released or the related Debt repaid;


 


 (6)            in
the case of a restriction described in clause (3) of Section 4.8(a), consisting of customary non-assignment provisions entered
into in the ordinary course of business in leases and other contracts to the extent such provisions restrict the transfer or subletting
of any such lease or the assignment of rights under any such contract;


 






    -42-


     


    

 


 (7)            with
respect to a Restricted Subsidiary, imposed pursuant to an agreement which has been entered into for the sale or disposition of all or
substantially all of the Capital Stock or assets of such Restricted Subsidiary; provided that such restriction terminates if such
transaction is closed or abandoned;


 


 (8)            in
bona fide contracts for the sale of any property or assets;


 


 (9)            any
encumbrance or restriction contained in the terms of any Debt or Capital Stock otherwise permitted to be Incurred under this Indenture
if the Issuer determines that any such encumbrance or restriction either (i) will not materially affect the Issuer’s ability
to make principal or interest payments on the Notes and such restrictions are not materially less favorable to Holders of Notes than is
customary in comparable financings or (ii) are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, with respect to any Restricted
Subsidiary than those in effect on the Issue Date with respect to that Restricted Subsidiary pursuant to agreements in effect on the Issue
Date or those contained in this Indenture or the Amended Credit Agreement, in each case as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors
or an Officer of the Issuer;


 


 (10)          restrictions
applicable to Foreign Subsidiaries in agreements or instruments governing Debt of Foreign Subsidiaries; or


 


 (11)            if
such encumbrance or restriction is the result of applicable laws or regulations.


  


SECTION 4.9.         Limitation
on Debt.


 


(a)            The
Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, Incur any Debt, except that the Issuer and any Restricted Subsidiary

1.00 or, if any such Debt is Incurred in connection with an acquisition of assets or equity interests or a merger, consolidation or amalgamation
not prohibited under the Indenture, does not cause the Secured Leverage Ratio, determined on a pro forma basis, to be greater than the
Secured Leverage Ratio immediately prior thereto, plus, in the case of any refinancing of any Debt permitted under this clause (1) or
any portion thereof, any increase in the amount of such Debt in connection with any refinancing expenses, accrued and unpaid interest,

such Debt owing by the Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor to a Restricted Subsidiary that is not an Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor shall
be expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all obligations with respect to the Notes, and


 






    -43-

disposition of shares of Capital Stock (including by consolidation or merger) of such Restricted Subsidiary to a Person other than the

any Subsidiary Guarantor in any way (provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Issuer may deliver a customary "comfort letter"
in connection with the issuance of any such Debt);


 


 (19)          (i) guarantees
by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of Debt of franchisees in an aggregate principal amount that, when aggregated with the principal
amount of all other Debt then outstanding and Incurred pursuant to this clause at the time of Incurrence (together with any Permitted
Refinancing Debt in respect thereof) and all loans and advances then outstanding and made pursuant to clause (2) of the definition
of "Permitted Investments," does not exceed the greater of (x) $75.0 million and (y) 35.0% of Trailing Consolidated

(i) $50.0 million and (ii) 23.5% of Trailing Consolidated EBITDA determined at the time of Incurrence.


 


(c)            For
purposes of determining compliance with, and the outstanding principal amount of any particular Debt Incurred pursuant to, and in compliance
with, this Section 4.9:


 


 (1)            in
the event that Debt meets the criteria of more than one of the types of Debt described in Section 4.9(a) and Section 4.9(b) of
this covenant, the Issuer, in its sole discretion, may classify such item of Debt on the date of Incurrence (or later classify or reclassify
such Debt, in its sole discretion) in any manner permitted by this covenant and shall only be required to include the amount and type
of such Debt in one of such clauses; provided that all Debt outstanding on the Issue Date under the Amended Credit Agreement shall
be deemed Incurred under clause (1) of the second paragraph of this covenant and may not later be reclassified;


 






    -45-


     


    

 


 (2)            Guarantees
of, or obligations in respect of letters of credit relating to, Debt which is otherwise included in the determination of a particular
amount of Debt shall not be included;


 


 (3)           the
principal amount of any Redeemable Stock or Preferred Stock of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary will be equal to the greater of the
maximum redemption or repurchase price (not including, in either case, any redemption or repurchase premium) or the liquidation preference
thereof;


 


 (4)           Debt
permitted by this covenant need not be permitted solely by reference to one provision permitting such Debt but may be permitted in part
by one such provision and in part by one or more other provisions of this covenant permitting such Debt;


 


 (5)           any
Receivables Sale shall be the amount for which there is recourse to the seller;


 


 (6)           the
amount of Debt issued at a price that is less than the principal amount thereof will be equal to the amount of the liability in respect
thereof determined in accordance with GAAP; and


 


 (7)            at
the time of Incurrence, division, classification or reclassification, the Issuer will be entitled to divide and classify an item of Debt
in more than one of the categories of Debt described in Section 4.9(a) or clauses (1) through (21) of Section 4.9(b) (or
any portion thereof) without giving pro forma effect to the Debt Incurred, divided, classified or reclassified pursuant to any other clause
or paragraph above (or any portion thereof) when calculating the amount of Debt that may be Incurred, divided, classified or reclassified
pursuant to any such clause or paragraph (or any portion thereof) at such time.


 


(d)            Accrual
of interest, accrual of dividends, the accretion of accreted value, the payment of interest in the form of additional Debt and the payment
of dividends in the form of additional shares of Preferred Stock or Redeemable Stock will not be deemed to be an Incurrence of Debt for
purposes of this Section 4.9.


 


(e)            For
purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the Incurrence of Debt, the U.S. dollar-equivalent
principal amount of Debt denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect
on the date such Debt was Incurred, in the case of term Debt, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit Debt; provided
that if such Debt is Incurred to refinance other Debt denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable
U.S. dollar-dominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing,
such U.S. dollar-dominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Debt
does not exceed the principal amount of such Debt being refinanced. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.9, the
maximum amount of Debt that the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries may Incur pursuant to this Section 4.9 shall not be deemed
to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies.


 


SECTION 4.10.       Limitation
on Asset Dispositions.


 


(a)            The
Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, make any Asset Disposition unless:


 


 (1)           the
Issuer or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration for such Asset Disposition at least equal to the Fair
Market Value (measured as of the date of the definitive agreement with respect to such Asset Disposition) for the assets or Capital Stock
sold or disposed of; and


 






    -46-


     


    





 


(2)            in
the case of an Asset Disposition or series of related Asset Dispositions having a Fair Market Value in excess of the greater of (i) $15.0
million and (ii) 7.0% of Trailing Consolidated EBITDA, at least 75% of the consideration for such Asset Disposition or series of
related Asset Dispositions consists of:


 


(i)          cash
or Cash Equivalents;


 


(ii)         the
assumption by the transferee of Debt of the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary (other than Debt that is subordinated to the Notes or
such Restricted Subsidiary’s Subsidiary Guarantee) and release of the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from all liability on
the Debt assumed;


 


(iii)        Replacement
Assets;


 


(iv)        Designated
Noncash Consideration;


 


(v)         Debt
of any Restricted Subsidiary (other than Subordinated Debt) that is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such Asset Disposition,
to the extent that the Issuer and each other Restricted Subsidiary is released from any guarantee of payment of such Debt in connection
with the Asset Disposition;


 


(vi)        consideration
consisting of Debt of the Issuer or another Restricted Subsidiary (other than Subordinated Debt) received after the Issue Date from persons
who are not the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary (valued at the lower of the price paid by such third party for such Debt and
par); and


 


(vii)       any
combination of the foregoing;


 


provided
that the amount of any consideration received by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary that is converted into cash within
180 days of the closing of such Asset Disposition shall be deemed to be cash for purposes of this Section 4.10(a)(2) (to the
extent of the cash received). The foregoing clauses (1) or (2) of this Section 4.10(a) shall not apply with respect
to any condemnation, event of loss or other involuntary Asset Disposition.


 


(b)          Within
365 days after the receipt of any Net Available Proceeds from an Asset Disposition, the Issuer (or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary,
as the case may be), may apply such Net Available Proceeds at its option, in any combination of the following:


 


(1)          to
repay, repurchase or otherwise retire (i) any Debt of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor that is not Subordinated Debt or (ii) any
Debt of any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer that is not a Subsidiary Guarantor, in each case, other than Debt owed to the Issuer or
an Affiliate of the Issuer;


 


(2)          to
acquire Replacement Assets or make capital expenditures; provided that, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary will be deemed
to have complied with its obligations under this Section 4.10(b) if it enters into a binding commitment to acquire Replacement
Assets prior to 365 days after the receipt of the applicable Net Available Proceeds and such acquisition of Replacement Assets is consummated
prior to 545 days after the date of receipt of the applicable Net Available Proceeds; provided, further, that upon any abandonment
or termination of such commitment, the Net Available Proceeds not so applied shall constitute Excess Proceeds and be applied as set forth
in Section 4.10(c); or


 


(3)          any
combination of the foregoing.


 


(c)          Any
Net Available Proceeds that are not applied or invested as provided in Section 4.10(b) will constitute “Excess Proceeds.”
Subject to the limitations with respect to Foreign Dispositions below, when the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds the greater
of (i) $25.0 million and (ii) 11.5% of Trailing Consolidated EBITDA, or earlier, at the Issuer’s election, the Issuer
will apply the Excess Proceeds to the repayment of the Notes and any other Pari Passu Debt outstanding with similar provisions requiring
the Issuer to make an Offer to Purchase such Debt with the proceeds from any Asset Disposition as follows:


 


(1)          the
Issuer will make an Offer to Purchase from all Holders of the Notes in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture in the
maximum principal amount (expressed in amounts of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) of Notes that may be purchased
out of an amount (the “Note Amount”) equal to the product of such Excess Proceeds multiplied by a fraction, the numerator
of which is the outstanding principal amount of the Notes, and the denominator of which is the sum of the outstanding principal amount
of the Notes and such Pari Passu Debt (subject to proration in the event such amount is less than the aggregate Offered Price for all
Notes tendered); and


 






    -47-


     


    

 


(2)          to
the extent required by such Pari Passu Debt, the Issuer will make an offer to purchase or otherwise repurchase or redeem Pari Passu Debt
(a “Pari Passu Offer”) in an amount (the “Pari Passu Debt Amount”) equal to the excess of the Excess
Proceeds over the Note Amount. However, in no event will the Issuer be required to make a Pari Passu Offer in a Pari Passu Debt Amount
exceeding the principal amount of such Pari Passu Debt plus the amount of any premium required to be paid to repurchase such Pari Passu
Debt.


 


The offer price for the Notes
will be payable in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to,
but not including, the date (the “Offer Date”) such Offer to Purchase is consummated (the “Offered Price”),
in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture. To the extent that the aggregate Offered Price of the Notes tendered pursuant
to the Offer to Purchase is less than the Note Amount relating to the tendered Notes or the aggregate amount of Pari Passu Debt that is
purchased in a Pari Passu Offer is less than the Pari Passu Debt Amount, the Issuer may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for general
corporate purposes. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Debt surrendered by holders thereof exceeds the amount of
Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes and Pari Passu Debt to be purchased on a pro rata basis; provided, that, in
the case of Global Notes issued, beneficial interests in such Notes shall be repurchased on a pro rata basis based on amounts tendered
only if such proration is consistent with the procedures of the applicable clearing system; otherwise, such beneficial interests shall
be selected for repurchase in accordance with such procedures. Upon the completion of the purchase of all the Notes tendered pursuant
to an Offer to Purchase and the completion of a Pari Passu Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds, if any, shall be reset at zero.


 


Notwithstanding any other
provisions of this covenant, (i) to the extent that any of or all the Net available Proceeds of any Asset Disposition received or
deemed to be received by a Foreign Subsidiary (a "Foreign Disposition") is (x) prohibited or delayed by applicable
local law, (y) restricted by applicable organizational documents or any agreement or (z) subject to other onerous organizational
or administrative impediments from being repatriated to the United States, the portion of such Net Available Proceeds so affected will
not be required to be applied in compliance with this Section 4.10, and such amounts may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary
so long, but only so long, as the applicable local law, documents or agreements will not permit repatriation to the United States (the
Issuer hereby agreeing to use reasonable efforts (as determined in the Issuer's reasonable business judgment) to otherwise cause the applicable
Foreign Subsidiary to within one year following the date on which the respective payment would otherwise have been required, promptly
take all commercially reasonable actions reasonably required by the applicable local law, applicable organizational impediments or other
impediment to permit such repatriation), and if within one year following the date on which the respective payment would otherwise have
been required, such repatriation of any of such affected Net Available Proceeds is permitted under the applicable law, applicable organizational
impediments or other impediment, such repatriation will be promptly effected and the amount of such repatriated Net Available Proceeds
will be promptly (and in any event not later than five (5) Business Days after such repatriation) applied (net of additional taxes
payable or reserved against as a result thereof) in compliance with this covenant and (ii) to the extent that the Issuer has determined
in good faith that repatriation of any of or all the Net Available Proceeds of any Foreign Disposition would have an adverse tax consequence
(which for the avoidance of doubt, includes, but is not limited to, any repatriation whereby doing so the Issuer, any of its Subsidiaries
or any of their respective affiliates and/or equity owners would incur a tax liability, including as a result of a dividend or deemed
dividend, or a withholding tax) with respect to such Net Available Proceeds, the Net Available Proceeds so affected may be retained by
the applicable Foreign Subsidiary. The non-application of any prepayment amounts as a consequence of the foregoing provisions will not,
for the avoidance of doubt, constitute a Default or an Event of Default.


 


(d)          If
the Issuer becomes obligated to make an Offer to Purchase pursuant to this Section 4.10, the Notes (in amounts of $2,000 and integral
multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof), and the Pari Passu Debt shall be purchased by the Issuer, at the option of the Holders thereof,
in whole or in part, on a date that is not earlier than 30 days and not later than 60 days from the date the notice of the Offer to Purchase
is given to Holders, or such later date as may be necessary for the Issuer to comply with the requirements under the Exchange Act.


 






    -48-


     


    

 


(e)          The
Issuer shall comply with all applicable securities laws and regulations in the United States, including, without limitation, the requirements
of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other applicable laws and regulations in connection with the purchase of Notes pursuant
to an Offer to Purchase. To the extent that the provisions of any applicable securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section 4.10,
the Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under
this Section 4.10 by virtue of such compliance.


 


SECTION 4.11.          Limitation
on Transactions with Affiliates.


 


(a)          The
Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, enter into any transaction or series of related
transactions having a value in excess of $10.0 million with or for the benefit of an Affiliate of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary,
including any Investment, either directly or indirectly, unless such transaction is on terms no less favorable to the Issuer or such Restricted
Subsidiary than those that could be obtained in a comparable arm’s-length transaction with an entity that is not an Affiliate or
is otherwise fair to the Issuer from a financial point of view. For any transaction or series of related transactions involving aggregate
value in excess of $15.0 million, such transaction or series of related transactions shall be approved by either (x) a majority of
the Disinterested Directors of the Board of Directors of the Issuer, if any, or in the event there is only one Disinterested Director,
by such Disinterested Director, or (y) the audit committee of the Board of Directors of the Issuer (with any Director on such committee
that is not a Disinterested Director recusing himself or herself).


 


(b)          The
preceding requirements shall not apply to:


 


(1)          any
transaction pursuant to agreements in effect on the Issue Date, as these agreements may be amended, modified, supplemented, extended or
renewed from time to time, so long as any such amendment, modification, supplement, extension or renewal is not more disadvantageous to
the Holders in any material respect in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors or senior management of the Issuer, when taken
as a whole, than the terms of the agreements in effect on the Issue Date;


 


(2)          any
employment agreement or employee benefit arrangements with any officer or director, including under any stock option or stock incentive
plans, entered into by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business of the Issuer or such Restricted
Subsidiary or approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors;


 


(3)          transactions
between or among the Issuer and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries and any Guarantees issued by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary for
the benefit of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, in accordance with Section 4.9;


 


(4)          any
transaction with any Person (x) that is not an Affiliate of the Issuer immediately before the consummation of such transaction that
becomes an Affiliate of the Issuer as a result of such transaction or (y) that is an Affiliate of the Issuer solely because the Issuer,
directly or indirectly, owns Capital Stock in, or controls, such Person;


 


(5)          transactions
with joint ventures entered into in the ordinary course of business, provided that no other Affiliate of the Issuer (other than
a Subsidiary thereof) directly or indirectly holds any Capital Stock of such joint venture;


 


(6)          payment
of reasonable directors fees to Persons who are not otherwise employees of the Issuer;


 


(7)          indemnities
of officers, directors and employees of the Issuer or any Subsidiary of the Issuer pursuant to bylaws, or statutory provisions or indemnification
agreements or the purchase of indemnification insurance for any director or officer;


 


(8)          any
Restricted Payment or Permitted Investment that is permitted to be made pursuant to Section 4.7;


 






    -49-


     


    

 


(9)          transactions
with customers, clients, suppliers or purchasers or sellers of goods or services, in each case in the ordinary course of the business
of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries and otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture; provided that in the
reasonable determination of the Issuer, such transactions are on terms that are no less favorable to the Issuer or the relevant Restricted
Subsidiary than those that could have been obtained at the time of such transactions in a comparable transaction by the Issuer or such
Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person;


 


(10)        the
grant, issuance or sale of Capital Stock (other than Redeemable Stock) to Affiliates of the Issuer and the granting of registration rights
and other customary rights in connection therewith;


 


(11)        any
transaction as to which the Issuer delivers to the Trustee a written opinion of an investment banking firm of national standing or other
recognized independent expert with experience in appraising the terms and conditions of the type of transaction or series of related transactions
for which an opinion is required stating that the transaction or series of related transactions is fair to the Issuer or such Restricted
Subsidiary from a financial point of view or stating that the terms are no less favorable to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary
than those that could be obtained in a comparable arm’s-length transaction with an entity that is not an Affiliate; and


 


(12)        written
agreements entered into or assumed in connection with mergers or acquisitions of other businesses with Persons who were not Affiliates
prior to such transactions; provided that such agreement was not entered into in contemplation of such merger or acquisition, and
any amendment thereto, so long as any such amendment is not disadvantageous to the Holders in the good faith judgment of the Board of
Directors or senior management of the Issuer, when taken as a whole, as compared to the applicable agreement as in effect on the date
of such acquisition or merger.


 


SECTION 4.12.          Limitation
on Liens.


 


(a)          The
Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer
to exist any Lien (other than a Permitted Lien) on any property or asset (including any intercompany notes) of the Issuer or a Restricted
Subsidiary now owned or hereafter acquired, or assign or convey a right to receive any income or profits from such Liens, to secure (i) any
Debt of the Issuer unless prior to, or contemporaneously therewith, the Notes are equally and ratably secured for so long as such other
Debt is so secured, or (ii) any Debt of any Subsidiary Guarantor, unless prior to, or contemporaneously therewith, the Subsidiary
Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor is equally and ratably secured for so long as such other Debt is so secured; provided, however,
that if such Debt is expressly subordinated to the Notes or a Subsidiary Guarantee, the Lien securing such Debt will be subordinated and
junior to the Lien securing the Notes or such Subsidiary Guarantee, as the case may be, with the same relative priority as such Debt has
with respect to the Notes or such Subsidiary Guarantee.


 


(b)          Notwithstanding
the foregoing, any Lien securing the Notes or any Subsidiary Guarantee granted pursuant to this Section 4.12 will be automatically
and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release by the holders of the Debt described in Section 4.12(a) of their
Lien on the property or assets of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary (including any deemed release upon payment in full of all obligations
under such Debt), at such time as the holders of all such Debt also release their Lien on the property or assets of the Issuer or such
Restricted Subsidiary, or upon any sale, exchange or transfer to any Person that is not an Affiliate of the Issuer of the property or
assets secured by such Lien, or of all of the Capital Stock held by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary in, or all or substantially
all the assets of, any Restricted Subsidiary creating such Lien.


 


SECTION 4.13.          Offer
to Purchase upon Change of Control. No later than 30 days after the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Issuer will be required
to make an Offer to Purchase (a “Change of Control Offer”), with a copy to the Trustee, all outstanding Notes at a
purchase price equal to 101% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of purchase
(the “Change of Control Purchase Price”) (subject to the right of Holders of Notes on the relevant regular record date
to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date).


 


On or before the Purchase
Date, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful, deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Purchase Price in
respect of the Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered.


 






    -50-


     


    

 


On the Purchase Date, the
Issuer will, to the extent lawful:


 


(1)          accept
for payment all Notes or portions of Notes (in a principal amount of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) properly
tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; and


 


(2)          deliver
or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes so accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate stating the aggregate principal
amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Issuer.


 


The Paying Agent will promptly
deliver to each Holder who has so tendered Notes the Change of Control Purchase Price for such Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate
and mail (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of
the Notes so tendered, if any; provided that each such new Note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or integral multiples of
$1,000 in excess thereof.


 


If the Purchase Date is on
or after an interest record date and on or before the related interest payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be
paid on the relevant interest payment date to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date
and will not be paid as part of the Change of Control Purchase Price.


 


The Issuer will not be required
to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control 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 validly tendered and not validly withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer, (ii) a notice
of redemption for all outstanding Notes has been given pursuant to Article III, unless and until there is a default in payment of
the applicable redemption price or (iii) in connection with or in contemplation of any publicly announced Change of Control, the
Issuer has made an offer to purchase (an “Alternate Offer”) any and all Notes validly tendered at a cash price equal
to or higher than the Change of Control Purchase Price and has purchased all Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn in accordance
with the terms of the Alternate Offer.


 


The Issuer shall comply with
all applicable securities rules and regulations in the United States, including, without limitation, the requirements of Rule 14e-1
under the Exchange Act and any other applicable laws and regulations in connection with the purchase of Notes pursuant to an Offer to
Purchase. To the extent that the provisions of any applicable securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section 4.13, the
Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under
this Section 4.13 by virtue of such compliance.


 


The provisions under this
Indenture relating to the Issuer’s obligation to make an offer to repurchase the Notes as a result of a Change of Control Offer
may be waived or modified with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes.


 


Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained herein, a Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditioned
upon the occurrence of such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time of making of
the Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer.


 


SECTION 4.14.          Corporate
Existence. Subject to Article V, the Issuer shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force
and effect its corporate existence and the corporate, partnership, limited liability company or other existence of each of the Subsidiary
Guarantors in accordance with the respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to time) of the Issuer or
any such Subsidiary Guarantor and the rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors;
provided that the Issuer shall not be required to preserve any such right, license or franchise, or the corporate, partnership
or other existence of any of the Subsidiary Guarantors, if the Issuer shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable
in the conduct of the business of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and that the loss thereof is not adverse in any material
respect to the Holders.


 






    -51-


     


    

 


SECTION 4.15.          Future
Guarantees. If any Domestic Subsidiary that is not already a Subsidiary Guarantor guarantees any Debt of the Issuer or a Subsidiary
Guarantor under, or borrows Debt under, (i) the Amended Credit Agreement or (ii) any Capital Markets/Term Loan Debt, in each
case, on or after the Issue Date, then such Domestic Subsidiary will become a Subsidiary Guarantor and execute a supplemental indenture
within 30 days of the date on which it became a guarantor or borrower with respect to such other Debt.


 


SECTION 4.16.          Designation
of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries.


 


(a)          The
Issuer, by delivery of an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee, may designate any Restricted Subsidiary to be an “Unrestricted
Subsidiary,” in which event such Subsidiary and each other Person that is then or thereafter becomes a Subsidiary of such Subsidiary
will be deemed to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary, if: (1) neither the Issuer nor any of its other Subsidiaries (other than another
Unrestricted Subsidiary) provides credit support for, or a Guarantee of, any Debt of such Subsidiary or any Subsidiary of such Subsidiary
(including any undertaking, agreement or instrument evidencing such Debt) or is directly or indirectly liable for any Debt of such Subsidiary
or any Subsidiary of such Subsidiary, and no default with respect to any Debt of such Subsidiary or any Subsidiary of such Subsidiary
(including any right which the holders thereof may have to take enforcement action against such Subsidiary) would permit (upon notice,
lapse of time or both) any holder of any other Debt of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries (other than another Unrestricted Subsidiary) to
declare a default on such other Debt or cause the payment thereof to be accelerated or payable prior to its final scheduled maturity,
except in either case to the extent that the amount of any such Debt constitutes a Restricted Payment or Permitted Investment that is
made in compliance with Section 4.7; (2) such Subsidiary does not own any Capital Stock of, or does not own or hold any Lien
on any property of, any other Restricted Subsidiary which is not a Subsidiary of the Subsidiary to be so designated or otherwise an Unrestricted
Subsidiary; (3) at the time of designation, the Issuer could make a Restricted Payment or Permitted Investment in an amount equal
to the Fair Market Value of its interest in such Subsidiary pursuant to Section 4.7; (4) such Subsidiary is a Person with respect
to which neither the Issuer nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries has any direct or indirect obligation to (a) subscribe for additional
Capital Stock of such Subsidiary or (b) maintain or preserve such Subsidiary’s financial condition or to cause such Subsidiary
to achieve any specified levels of operating results, except in either case to the extent that the amount of any such obligation constitutes
a Restricted Payment or Permitted Investment that is made in compliance with Section 4.7; and (5) no Default shall have occurred
and be continuing at the time of, or immediately after giving effect to, such designation.


 


(b)          The
Issuer, by delivery of an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee, may at any time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted
Subsidiary of the Issuer if: (1) (a) the Issuer would be able to Incur at least $1.00 of additional Debt pursuant to Section 4.9(a),
or (b) the Consolidated Coverage Ratio of the Issuer would not be less than the Consolidated Coverage Ratio of the Issuer immediately
prior to such designation, in each case on a pro forma basis taking into account such designation; (2) all Liens of such Unrestricted
Subsidiary outstanding immediately following such designation would, if Incurred at such time, have been permitted to be Incurred for
all purposes of this Indenture; and (3) no Default or Event of Default would occur and be continuing following such designation.


 


The Trustee shall have no
duty whatsoever to monitor or inquire whether a Subsidiary is a Restricted Subsidiary or an Unrestricted Subsidiary and may be entitled
to conclusively rely on the Officer’s Certificates delivered to it by the Issuer as described above.


 


SECTION 4.17.          Covenant
Suspension.


 


(a)          If
on any date following the Issue Date, the Notes have an Investment Grade Rating from two Rating Agencies; and no Default or Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, then, upon delivery to the Trustee of an Officer’s Certificate to the foregoing effect, the
covenants set forth in the following sections of this Indenture will be suspended:


 


(1)          Section 4.7;


 


(2)          Section 4.8;


 


(3)          Section 4.9;


 






    -52-


     


    

 


(4)          Section 4.10;


 


(5)          Section 4.11;


 


(6)          Section 4.15
(but only with respect to any Person that is required to become a Subsidiary Guarantor after the date of the commencement of the applicable
suspension date); and


 


(7)          Section 5.1(a)(3).


 


During any period that the
foregoing covenants have been suspended, the Issuer shall not designate any of its Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries unless such
designation would have complied with Section 4.7 as if Section 4.7 were in effect during such period.


 


Upon the occurrence of a covenant
suspension, the amount of Excess Proceeds from Net Available Proceeds shall be reset at zero. During any period that the foregoing covenants
have been suspended, any reference in the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary” or “Permitted Liens”
to Section 4.9 or any provision thereof shall be construed as if Section 4.9 had remained in effect since the Issue Date and
during such period.


 


(b)          Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if the Notes cease to have an Investment Grade Rating from two Rating Agencies, the foregoing covenants will be reinstated
as of and from the date of such rating decline, subject to further suspension in the future upon the satisfaction of the conditions described
in Section 4.17(a) above. Any Debt Incurred during the period when the covenants are suspended will be classified as having
been Incurred pursuant to Section 4.9(a) or one of the clauses of Section 4.9(b). To the extent such Debt would not be
so permitted to be Incurred, such Debt will be deemed to have been outstanding on the Issue Date, so that it is classified as permitted
under clause (2) of Section 4.9(b). Calculations under the reinstated Section 4.7 will be made as if Section 4.7 had
been in effect prior to, but not during, the suspension period. In addition: (i) for purposes of Section 4.8, all contracts
entered into during a suspension period that contain any of the restrictions contemplated by such covenant will be deemed to have been
entered into pursuant to Section 4.8(b)(1); (ii) for purposes of Section 4.12, any Lien Incurred during a suspension period
will be deemed to have been entered into pursuant to clause (9) of the definition of “Permitted Liens”; and (iii) for
purposes of Section 4.11, all agreements and arrangements entered into by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary with an Affiliate
of the Issuer during such period will be deemed to have been entered into pursuant to Section 4.11(b)(1). No Default or Event of
Default will be deemed to have occurred with respect to the suspended covenants as a result of any actions taken by the Issuer or its
Restricted Subsidiaries during the period when such covenants are suspended, and the Issuer and any Subsidiary of the Issuer will be permitted,
without causing a Default or Event of Default or breach of any of the suspended covenants (notwithstanding the reinstatement thereof)
under this Indenture, to honor, comply with or otherwise perform any contractual commitments or obligations entered into during the period
when such covenants are suspended following a downgrade and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby.


 


(c)          Promptly
following the occurrence of any suspension or reinstatement of the covenants as described above, the Issuer will provide an Officer’s
Certificate to the Trustee regarding such occurrence and the effective date of such change. The Trustee shall have no obligation to independently
determine, monitor or verify if a suspension or reinstatement has occurred or notify the Holders of any suspension or reinstatement.

resulting, surviving or transferee Person (the “Successor Company”) shall be a corporation, partnership, trust or limited
liability company organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia
and the Successor Company (if not the Issuer) shall expressly assume, by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee,
in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, all the obligations of the Issuer under this Indenture and the Notes and, if the Successor
Company is not a corporation, a co-obligor of the Notes is a corporation organized or existing under such laws;


 






    -53-


     


    

 


(2)          immediately
after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;


 


(3)          immediately
after giving pro forma effect to such transaction and treating any Debt which becomes an obligation of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary
as a result of such transaction as having been Incurred by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary at the time of the transaction, either
(i) the Issuer (including any Successor Company) could Incur at least $1.00 of additional Debt (other than Permitted Debt) pursuant

(5)          the
Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, stating that such consolidation,
merger, conveyance, transfer or lease and such supplemental indenture, if any, comply with this Indenture and that the supplemental indenture

or more Subsidiaries of the Issuer, which properties and assets, if held by the Issuer instead of such Subsidiaries, would constitute
all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Issuer on a consolidated basis, shall be deemed to be the sale, lease, conveyance,
assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Issuer.


 


The Successor Company will
succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Issuer under this Indenture, and, except in the case
of a lease of all or substantially all its assets, the Issuer will be released from the obligation to pay the principal of, and interest
on, the Notes and all other obligations under this Indenture.


 


(b)          Except
in circumstances under which this Indenture provides for the release of Subsidiary Guarantees as described under Section 10.5, each
Subsidiary Guarantor will not, and the Issuer will not permit a Subsidiary Guarantor to, consolidate with or merge with or into, or convey
or transfer or lease all or substantially all its assets to, another Person (other than the Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor), unless
at the time and after giving effect thereto:


 


(1)


 


(A)          the
resulting, surviving or transferee Person (the “Successor Subsidiary Guarantor”) shall be a corporation, partnership,
trust or limited liability company organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District
of Columbia and the Successor Subsidiary Guarantor (if not the Subsidiary Guarantor) shall expressly assume, by supplemental indenture,
executed and delivered to the Trustee, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, all the obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantor
under this Indenture and its Subsidiary Guarantee;


 






    -54-


     


    

 


(B)          immediately
after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and


 


(C)          the
Subsidiary Guarantor shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, stating that such consolidation,
merger, conveyance, transfer or lease and such supplemental indenture, if any, comply with this Indenture and that the supplemental indenture
constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Successor Company, subject to the customary exceptions; or


 


(2)            such
transaction does not violate Section 4.10.


 


For purposes of this Section 5.1(b),
the sale, lease, conveyance, assignment, transfer, or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of one
or more Subsidiaries of a Subsidiary Guarantor, which properties and assets, if held by such Subsidiary Guarantor instead of such Subsidiaries,
would constitute all or substantially all of the properties and assets of such Subsidiary Guarantor on a consolidated basis, shall be
deemed to be the sale, lease, conveyance, assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties and
assets of such Subsidiary Guarantor.


 


The Successor Subsidiary Guarantor
will succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Subsidiary Guarantor under this Indenture, but,
in the case of a lease of all or substantially all its assets, the Subsidiary Guarantor will not be released from its obligations under
its Subsidiary Guarantee.

(6)            default
under the terms of any instrument evidencing or securing any Debt of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary having an outstanding principal
amount of $50.0 million, individually or in the aggregate, which default results in the acceleration of the payment of such Debt or constitutes
the failure to pay the principal amount of such Debt when due (after giving effect to any applicable grace period provided in such Debt)

    -55-


     


    

 


(7)            the
rendering of one or more final judgments, orders or decrees (not subject to appeal) of any court or regulatory or administrative agency
against the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary or any of their respective properties in an amount in excess of $50.0 million, either
individually or in the aggregate, (exclusive of any portion of any such payment covered by insurance) which remains undischarged or unstayed
for a period of 60 days after the date on which the right to appeal has expired or been extinguished;


 


(8)            the
Issuer or any Significant Restricted Subsidiary or group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant
Restricted Subsidiary, pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:


 


(A)        commences
a voluntary case,


 


(B)         consents

a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or


 


(E)          admits
in writing to the Trustee that it generally is not paying its debts as they become due;


 


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


 


(i)           is
for relief against the Issuer or any Significant Restricted Subsidiary or group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would
constitute a Significant Restricted Subsidiary, in an involuntary case;


 


(ii)          appoints
a custodian of the Issuer or any Significant Restricted Subsidiary or group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute
a Significant Restricted Subsidiary or for all or substantially all of the property of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;
or


 


(iii)         orders
the liquidation of the Issuer or any Significant Restricted Subsidiary or group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would
constitute a Significant Restricted Subsidiary and, in each case, the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive
days; and


 


(10)          the
Subsidiary Guarantee of any Subsidiary Guarantor is held by a final non-appealable order or judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction
to be unenforceable or invalid or ceases for any reason to be in full force and effect (other than in accordance with the terms of this
Indenture) or any such Subsidiary Guarantor or any Person acting on behalf of any such Subsidiary Guarantor denies or disaffirms such
Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee (other than by reason of a release of such Subsidiary Guarantor
from its Subsidiary Guarantee in accordance with the terms of this Indenture).


 


SECTION 6.2.          Acceleration.
If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (8) or (9) of Section 6.1) shall occur and be
continuing under this Indenture, either the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding
by written notice to the Issuer and the Trustee, may declare (an “acceleration declaration”) the principal of, and
accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all outstanding amounts owing under the Notes to be due and payable. Upon such acceleration declaration,
the aggregate principal of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the outstanding Notes shall become due and payable immediately.


 






    -56-


     


    

 


At any time after such acceleration
pursuant to this Section 6.2, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding may rescind and
annul such acceleration if:


 


(1)          the
rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction;


 


(2)          all
existing Events of Default have been cured or waived other than nonpayment of accelerated principal and interest;


 


(3)          to
the extent the payment of such interest is lawful, interest on overdue installments of interest and overdue principal, which has become
due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration, has been paid;


 


(4)          the
Issuer has paid the Trustee its reasonable compensation and reimbursed the Trustee for its reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances;
and


 


(5)          in
the event of the cure or waiver of an Event of Default of the type described in clauses (8) or (9) of Section 6.1 hereof,
the Trustee shall have received an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel that such Event of Default has been cured or
waived.


 


No such rescission shall affect
any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto.


 


If an Event of Default specified
in clause (8) or (9) of Section 6.1 occurs, then all unpaid principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all
of the outstanding Notes shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other action or notice
on the part of the Trustee or any Holder of the Notes to the extent permitted by applicable law.


 


SECTION 6.3.          Other
Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal,
premium, if any, and interest, if any, on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture.


 


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


 


SECTION 6.4.          Waiver
of Past Defaults. Subject to Section 9.2, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding
by written notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, waive any existing Default or Event of Default and
its consequences under this Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest or premium on, or the
principal of, the Notes (other than any such payment that has become due because of an acceleration that has been rescinded).


 


SECTION 6.5.          Control
by Majority. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and
place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust power conferred on it. However,
(a) the Trustee may require indemnity and security satisfactory to it be furnished prior to taking such actions, (b) the Trustee
may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or that the Trustee determines in good faith may be unduly
prejudicial to the rights of Holders not joining in the giving of such direction (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an
affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not any such direction is unduly prejudicial to the rights of such other Holders) or that would
involve any personal liability for the Trustee and (c) the Trustee may take any other action it deems proper that is not inconsistent
with any such direction received from the Holders.


 






    -57-


     


    

 


SECTION 6.6.          Limitation
on Suits. Subject to Section 6.7, no Holder of a Note will have any right to institute any proceeding with respect to this Indenture,
or for the appointment of a receiver or a trustee, or for any other remedy thereunder unless (a) such Holder has previously given
to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Notes, (b) the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate
principal amount of the outstanding Notes have made written request, and such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity
and security satisfactory to the Trustee to institute such proceeding as trustee, (c) the Trustee has failed to institute such proceeding,
and (d) the Trustee has not received from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes a direction
inconsistent with such request, within 60 days after such notice, request and offer. However, such limitations do not apply to a suit
instituted by a Holder of a Note for the enforcement of payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on such Note on or after
the applicable due date specified in such Note.


 


A Holder may not use this
Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder (it being understood that
the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not any such use by a Holder prejudices the rights of any other
Holders or obtains priority or preference over such other Holders).


 


SECTION 6.7.          Rights
of Holders of Notes to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder to receive
payment of principal of, premium or interest on, such Note or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment, on or after the due
date expressed in the Notes, shall not be modified or amended in a manner adverse to such Holder without the consent of the Holder.


 


SECTION 6.8.          Collection
Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default specified in clauses (1) or (2) of Section 6.1 occurs and is continuing, the
Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer for the whole amount of
principal of, premium, if any, and interest remaining unpaid on the Notes and interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful,
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.


 


SECTION 6.9.          Trustee
May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary
or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements
and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer (or any
other obligor upon the Notes including the Subsidiary Guarantors), its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and empowered to
collect, receive and distribute any money or other securities or property payable or deliverable upon the conversion or exchange of the
Notes or on any such claims, and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments
to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the
Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel,
and any other amounts due to the Trustee under Section 7.6 and all amounts under the Indenture and the Notes. To the extent that
the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances to the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts
due the Trustee under Section 7.6 out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall
be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the
Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding, whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise.
Nothing in this Section 6.9 shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any
Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize
the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.


 


SECTION 6.10.          Priorities.
If the Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article VI, it shall pay out the money and property in the following
order:


 


First:
to the Trustee, its agents and attorneys for amounts due to the Trustee under Section 7.6 and under the Indenture and the Notes,
including payment of all reasonable compensation, expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by it and the costs and expenses
of collection;


 


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


 






    -58-


     


    

 


Third:
without duplication, to the Holders for any other obligations owing to the Holders under this Indenture and the Notes; and


 


Fourth:
to the Issuer or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct.


 


The Trustee may fix a record
date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section 6.10.


 


SECTION 6.11.          Undertaking
for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any
action taken or omitted by it as the Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an
undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’
fees and expenses, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made
by the party litigant. This Section 6.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 6.7,
or a suit by Holders of more than 10.0% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes.


 


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 proceedings, the Issuer, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored
severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall
continue as though no such proceeding has been instituted.


 


SECTION 6.13.          Rights
and Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or
stolen Notes in Section 2.7 hereof, 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 or employment
of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right
or remedy.


 


SECTION 6.14.          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 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.


 


ARTICLE VII

TRUSTEE


 


SECTION 7.1.          Duties
of Trustee.


 


(a)            If
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, 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 its exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct
of his or her own affairs.


 


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


 


(1)          the
duties of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture and no implied covenants or obligations shall
be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and


 


(2)          in
the absence of bad faith or willful misconduct 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 (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein); however,
the Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions furnished to it to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of
this Indenture.

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


 


(1)            this
paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section 7.1;


 


(2)            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 negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;


 


(3)            the
Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received
by it pursuant to Section 6.5; and


 


(4)            no
provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or incur any liability.


 


(d)            The
Trustee shall not be liable for interest on or the investment of any money received by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with
the Issuer. Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.


 


(e)            Whether
or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to this Section 7.1.


 


SECTION 7.2.         Rights
of Trustee.


 


(a)            In
the absence of bad faith or willful misconduct on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be fully protected in acting or
refraining from acting on any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, notice, report, request, direction, consent, order,
bond, debenture or other document (whether in original or facsimile form or PDF transmission or in accordance with Section 11.10
hereof) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact
or matter stated therein.


 


(b)            Before
the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both. 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. Prior to taking, suffering or admitting any action, the Trustee may consult with counsel of the Trustee’s own choosing,
and the Trustee shall be fully protected from liability in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith
and in conclusive reliance on the advice or opinion of such counsel.


 


(c)            The
Trustee may act through its attorneys and agents and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any attorney or agent
appointed with due care.


 


(d)            The
Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith that it believes to be authorized or within the discretion
or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture.


 


(e)            Unless
otherwise specifically provided in this Indenture, any demand, request, direction or notice from the Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor
shall be sufficient if signed by an Officer of the Issuer or such Subsidiary Guarantor.


 


(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 indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against
the costs, expenses and liabilities that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.


 






    -60-


     


    

 


(g)          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 documents,
but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and,
if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine during normal business hours
the books, records and premises of the Issuer, personally or by agent or attorney at the sole cost of the Issuer, and shall incur no liability
or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation.


 


(h)          The
rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified,
are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, to the Agents and to each other agent,
custodian and Person employed to act hereunder.


 


(i)           The
Trustee may request that the Issuer and each of the Subsidiary Guarantors shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate
setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of Officers of the Issuer and each Subsidiary Guarantor, as applicable, authorized
at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture of the Issuer, the Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees, 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.


 


(j)          The
Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice or be charged with knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer
of the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof with respect to Section 6.1(1), (2) or (3) or the Trustee shall have received
from the Issuer or Subsidiary Guarantor or from any Holder written notice thereof at its address set forth in Section 11.1 and such
notice references the Notes and this Indenture. In the absence of such notice, the Trustee may conclusively assume that no such Default
or Event of Default exists.


 


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


 


(l)           The
Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the performance of its powers and duties hereunder.


 


(m)         No
provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the
performance of any of its duties thereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers.


 


(n)          The
permissive rights of the Trustee enumerated in this Indenture shall not be construed as duties.


 


(o)           It
shall not be the duty of the Trustee to see that any duties or obligations imposed herein upon the Issuer or other persons are performed,
and the Trustee shall not be liable or responsible for the failure of the Issuer or such other persons to perform any act required of
them by this Indenture.


 


SECTION 7.3.          Individual
Rights of the Trustee. The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise
deal with the Issuer or any Affiliate of the Issuer with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Agent may do the same
with like rights and duties. The Trustee is also subject to Section 7.9.


 


SECTION 7.4.          Trustee’s
Disclaimer. The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture,
the Notes, the Offering Memorandum for the Notes or any Subsidiary Guarantee, it shall not be accountable for the use of the proceeds
from the Notes or any money paid to the Issuer or upon the Issuer’s direction under any provision of this Indenture, it shall not
be responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee, and it shall not be responsible
for any statement or recital herein or any statement in the Notes, any Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel delivered to
the Trustee hereunder, 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 hereunder.


 






    -61-


     


    

 


SECTION 7.5.          Notice
of Defaults. If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and the Trustee has notice or knowledge thereof as provided
in Section 7.2(j), the Trustee shall deliver to Holders a notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs.
Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note, the Trustee
may withhold the notice if and so long as it in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interest of the Holders.


 


SECTION 7.6.          Compensation
and Indemnity. The Issuer shall pay to the Trustee from time to time compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and for all
services rendered by it hereunder as agreed upon in writing. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation
of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuer shall reimburse the Trustee, as applicable, promptly upon request for all reasonable disbursements,
advances and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable
compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel.


 


Each of the Issuer and the
Subsidiary Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall indemnify, defend, protect and hold the Trustee (which for purposes of this Section 7.6
shall include its officers, directors, employees and agents) harmless against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs
or expenses suffered or incurred by it (including, without limitation, the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel), including taxes
(other than taxes based upon, measured by or determined by the income of the Trustee), arising out of or in connection with the acceptance
or administration of its duties under this Indenture, the performance of its obligations and/or exercise of its rights hereunder, including
the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor (including this Section 7.6) and
defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Issuer or any Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection with
the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, except to the extent any such loss, claim, damage, liability or
expense shall have been found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a non-appealable final decision to have been caused by its own 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 of its obligations hereunder. The Trustee may have separate counsel,
and the necessary local counsel, if applicable, and the Issuer shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel for the Trustee.
The Issuer need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.


 


The obligations of the Issuer
and the Subsidiary Guarantors under this Section 7.6 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the payment
of the Notes or the resignation or removal of the Trustee.


 


To secure the Issuer’s
payment obligations in this Section 7.6, the Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected
by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal or interest, if any, on particular Notes. Such Lien shall survive the satisfaction
and discharge of this Indenture, the payment of the Notes and the resignation or removal of the Trustee and any termination of this Indenture,
including a termination in connection with a bankruptcy.


 


When the Trustee incurs expenses
or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(7) occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the
services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy
Law.


 


SECTION 7.7.          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 7.7.


 


The Trustee may resign in
writing at any time and be discharged from the trust hereby created by so notifying the Issuer. The Holders of a majority in principal
amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee upon thirty days’ written notice to the Trustee and the Issuer. The
Issuer may remove the Trustee if no Event of Default exists and:


 


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


 






    -62-


     


    

 


(b)          a
custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or


 


(c)          the
Trustee becomes incapable of acting.


 


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


 


If a successor trustee does
not take office within 30 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, such retiring Trustee (at the expense of the Issuer),
the Issuer or the Holders of at least 10.0% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction
for the appointment of a successor trustee.


 


If the Trustee, after written
request by any Holder who has been a Holder for at least six months, fails to comply with this Section 7.7, such Holder may petition
any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor trustee.


 


A successor trustee shall
deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuer. Thereupon, the resignation or removal of the
retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor trustee shall have all the rights, powers and the duties of the Trustee under
this Indenture. The successor trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to the Holders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer
all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee; provided that all sums owing to the retiring Trustee hereunder have
been paid and subject to the Lien provided for in Section 7.6. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.7,
the Issuer’s and the Subsidiary Guarantors’ obligations under Section 7.6 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring
Trustee.


 


SECTION 7.8.          Successor
Trustee by Merger, Etc. If the Trustee or any Agent consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of
its corporate trust business (including this transaction) to, another corporation or banking association, the successor corporation or
banking association without any further act shall be the successor Trustee or Agent, as applicable.


 


SECTION 7.9.          Eligibility;
Disqualification. There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation organized and doing business under the laws
of the United States or of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power and that is subject
to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities. Such Trustee together with its affiliates shall at all times have a combined
capital surplus of at least $50.0 million as set forth in its most recent annual report of condition.


 


ARTICLE VIII

DEFEASANCE; DISCHARGE OF THIS INDENTURE


 


SECTION 8.1.          Option
to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The Issuer may, by delivery of an Officer’s Certificate, at any time, elect
to have either Section 8.2 or Section 8.3 applied to all outstanding Notes upon compliance with the conditions set forth below
in this Article VIII.


 


SECTION 8.2.          Legal
Defeasance. Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.1 of the option applicable to this Section 8.2, the Issuer
and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.4, be deemed to have been
discharged from their obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes and Subsidiary Guarantees and this Indenture on the date the conditions
set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the
Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall be deemed to have paid and discharged all of the obligations with respect to this Indenture,
the Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees, which shall thereafter be deemed to be outstanding only for the purposes of Section 8.5
and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in (a) and (b) below, and to have satisfied all of their other obligations
under such Notes, Subsidiary Guarantees and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on written demand of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall
execute instruments acknowledging the same), and this Indenture shall cease to be of further effect as to all such Notes and Subsidiary
Guarantees, except for the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (a) the rights
of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, and interest and premium on, such Notes when such
payments are due from the trust funds referred to in Section 8.4(1); (b) the Issuer’s obligations with respect to such
Notes under Section 2.2, Section 2.3, Section 2.4, Section 2.7, Section 2.10, and Section 4.2; (c) the
rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee, including without limitation thereunder, under Section 7.6, Section 8.5
and Section 8.7 and the obligations of the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors in connection therewith; and (d) the provisions
of this Article VIII. Subject to compliance with this Article VIII, the Issuer may exercise its option under this Section 8.2
notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 8.3.


 






    -63-


     


    

 


SECTION 8.3.          Covenant
Defeasance. Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.1 above of the option applicable to this Section 8.3, the Issuer
shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.4 below, be released from its obligations under Sections
4.3, 4.5, 4.7 through Section 4.16 and Section 5.1(a)(3) on and after the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied
(hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes shall thereafter be deemed not outstanding for the purposes of
any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants,
but shall continue to be deemed outstanding for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes shall not be deemed
outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes, the Issuer
or any of its Subsidiaries may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth
in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of
any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute
a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.1, and the Events of Default in clauses (3) through (7) or (8) (with
respect to a Subsidiary) and (9) (with respect to a Subsidiary) of Section 6.1 shall no longer apply but, except as specified
above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes and any Subsidiary Guarantees shall be unaffected thereby.


 


SECTION 8.4.          Conditions
to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. The following shall be the conditions to the application of either Section 8.2 or Section 8.3
to the outstanding Notes:


 


(1)          the
Issuer must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, as trust funds, in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders, U.S. dollars, non-callable
U.S. Government Obligations or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient without consideration of any reinvestment
of interest (if U.S. Government Obligations are deposited, in the opinion of a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or
firm of independent public accountants selected by the Issuer and delivered to the Trustee), to pay the principal of, premium, if any,
and interest, 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 any other amounts owing under this Indenture (in the case of an optional redemption date prior to electing to exercise either
Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, the Issuer has delivered to the Trustee an irrevocable notice to redeem all of the outstanding
Notes on such redemption date),


 


(2)          in
the case of Legal Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States reasonably acceptable
to the Trustee confirming that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions:


 


(A)          the
Issuer has received from, or there has been published by, the United States Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or


 


(B)          since
the 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 shall confirm that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, the beneficial owners of the
outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of the Legal Defeasance and
will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if
such Legal Defeasance had not occurred,


 






    -64-


     


    

 


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


 


(4)          no
Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be 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 Debt) and the
Incurrence of Liens associated with any such borrowings),


 


(5)          the
Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall 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 Debt being defeased, discharged or replaced) to which
the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is bound,


 


(6)          the
Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuer with the
intent of preferring the Holders over any other creditors of the Issuer or with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding
any other creditors of the Issuer or others, and


 


(7)          the
Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel (which opinion may be subject to customary
assumptions and exclusions) each stating that the applicable conditions precedent provided for in clauses (1) through (6) of
this Section 8.4 have been complied with.


 


SECTION 8.5.          Deposited
Money and U.S. Government Obligations to Be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. Subject to Section 8.6, all U.S. dollar
and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively
for purposes of this Section 8.5, the “Deposit Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.4 or Section 8.8 in respect
of the outstanding Notes shall be held in trust, shall not be invested, and shall be applied by the Deposit Trustee in accordance with
the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuer or any
Subsidiary acting as Paying Agent) as the Deposit Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and to become due
thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, and all other amounts due and owing under the Indenture and the
Notes but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.


 


The Issuer shall pay and indemnify
the Deposit Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or non-callable U.S. Government Obligations
deposited pursuant to Section 8.4 or Section 8.8 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such
tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes.


 


Anything in this Article VIII
to the contrary notwithstanding, the Deposit Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Issuer from time to time upon the written request of
the Issuer and be relieved of all liability with respect to any U.S. dollars or non-callable U.S. Government Obligations held by it as
provided in Section 8.4 or Section 8.8 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants
expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Deposit Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.4(1)),
are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance
or satisfaction and discharge, as the case may be.


 


SECTION 8.6.          Repayment
to Issuer. Subject to applicable escheat laws, any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Issuer,
in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such
principal and premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Issuer on its written request or (if then held
by the Issuer) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look
only to the Issuer for payment thereof; and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all
liability of the Issuer as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease.


 






    -65-


     


    

 


SECTION 8.7.          Reinstatement.
If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any U.S. dollars or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 8.2,
Section 8.3 or Section 8.8, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining,
restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the obligations of the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors under this Indenture
and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.2, Section 8.3 or Section 8.8
until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.2, Section 8.3
or Section 8.8, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the Issuer makes any payment of principal of, premium,
if any, or interest on any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders
of such Notes to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.


 


SECTION 8.8.          Discharge.
This Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect (except as to surviving rights or registration of transfer or
exchange of Notes which shall survive until all Notes have been canceled and the rights, protections and immunities of the Trustee, as
expressly provided for in this Indenture) as to all outstanding Notes and Subsidiary Guarantees when either:


 


(1)          all
the Notes that have been authenticated and delivered (except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes which have been replaced or paid and Notes
for whose payment money has been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Issuer and thereafter repaid to the Issuer
or discharged from this trust), have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or


 


(2)          (a)          all
Notes not delivered to the Trustee for cancellation otherwise (i) have become due and payable by reason of mailing of a notice of
redemption, (ii) will become due and payable, or may be called for redemption, within one year or (iii) have been called for
redemption pursuant to Article III and, in any case, the Issuer 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 in such amounts as will be sufficient without consideration
of any reinvestment of interest (if U.S. Government Obligations are deposited, in the opinion of a nationally recognized investment bank,
appraisal firm or firm of independent public accountants selected by the Issuer and delivered to the Trustee) to pay and discharge the
entire Debt (including all principal and accrued interest, if any) on the Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation;


 


(b)          the
Issuer has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable by it under this Indenture; and


 


(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 date of redemption, as the case may be.


 


In addition, the Issuer must
deliver an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction
and discharge have been complied with.


 


After the Notes are no longer
outstanding, the Issuer’s and the Subsidiary Guarantors’ obligations in Section 7.6, Section 8.5 and Section 8.7
shall survive any discharge pursuant to this Section 8.8.


 


After such delivery or irrevocable
deposit and receipt of the Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel, the Trustee, upon written request, shall acknowledge in

that, in each case, such provisions shall not adversely affect the interest of the Holders of the Notes in any material respect;

in an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee.


 






    -67-


     


    

 


After an amendment under this
Indenture becomes effective, the Issuer shall deliver to Holders of the Notes a notice briefly describing such amendment. However, the
failure to give such notice to all Holders, or any defect therein, will not impair or affect the validity of the amendment.


 


SECTION 9.2.    With
Consent of Holders of Notes. With the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes
then outstanding (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer
for, the Notes), the Issuer, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture, the Notes or any Subsidiary
Guarantees or waive any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with any provision of this Indenture or the Notes; provided,
however, that no such amendment, supplement or waiver shall, without the consent of the Holder of each outstanding Note affected
thereby (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, the
Notes):


 


(1)            change
the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any installment of interest on, any Note;


 


(2)            reduce
the principal amount of, (or the premium) or interest on, any Note;


 


(3)            change
the place or currency of payment of principal of (or premium), or interest on, any Note;


 


(4)            (i) modify,
in any manner adverse to the Holders of the Notes, the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment of principal of, (or
premium) or interest on, any Note, or (ii) waive any payment in respect thereof except a default in payment arising solely from an
acceleration of the Notes that has been rescinded;


 


(5)            modify
any provisions of this Indenture relating to the modification and amendment of this Indenture or the waiver of past defaults or covenants
which require each Holder’s consent;


 


(6)            amend
any provisions relating to the redemption of the Notes (other than the notice provisions) to reduce the premium payable or change the
dates on which the Notes may be redeemed, it being understood that, for the avoidance of doubt, the provisions described under Section 4.10
and Section 4.13 shall not be covered by this clause (6);


 


(7)            modify
the Subsidiary Guarantees in any manner adverse to the Holders, except in accordance with this Indenture; or


 


(8)            modify
any of the provisions of this Indenture adversely affecting the ranking of the Notes.


 


It shall not be necessary
for the consent of the Holders under this Section 9.2 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or waiver, but it
shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.


 


SECTION 9.3.    Revocation
and Effect of Consents. Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Note is a continuing
consent by the Holder and every subsequent Holder of that Note or portion of the Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s
Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on the Note. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as
to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the waiver, supplement or amendment becomes effective.
When an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms, it thereafter binds every Holder.


 


The Issuer may, but shall
not be obligated to, fix a record date for determining which Holders consent to such amendment, supplement or waiver.


 


SECTION 9.4.    Notation
on or Exchange of Notes. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation, provided by the Issuer in writing, about an amendment, supplement
or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Issuer in exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee shall authenticate new
Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver.


 






    -68-


     


    

 


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


 


SECTION 9.5.    Trustee
to Sign Amendments, Etc. The Trustee shall sign any amended or supplemental indenture authorized pursuant to this Article IX
if the amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. In signing or refusing
to sign any amendment or supplemental indenture, the Trustee shall be provided with and (subject to Section 7.1) shall be fully protected
in conclusively relying upon an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amendment or
supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that all conditions precedent thereto have been met or waived
and that such supplemental indenture constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuer, subject to the customary exceptions.


 


ARTICLE X

SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES


 


SECTION 10.1.  Subsidiary
Guarantees.


 


(a)            Each
Subsidiary Guarantor hereby jointly and severally, fully and unconditionally guarantees the Notes and obligations of the Issuer hereunder
and thereunder, and guarantees to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee, that: (i) the
principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Notes shall be paid in full when due, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration,
call for redemption or otherwise, together with interest on the overdue principal, if any, and interest on any overdue interest, to the
extent lawful, and all other obligations of the Issuer to the Holders or the Trustee under this Indenture or the Notes shall be paid in
full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (ii) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal
of any Notes or of any such other obligations, the same shall be paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the
extension or renewal, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. Each of the Subsidiary Guarantees shall be a guarantee
of payment and not of collection.


 


(b)            Each
Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or
enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder with
respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuer, any action to enforce the same or any other
circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a Guarantor.


 


(c)            Each
Subsidiary Guarantor hereby waives the benefits of diligence, presentment, demand for payment, filing of claims with a court in the event
of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer or any other Person, protest, notice
and all demands whatsoever and covenants that the Subsidiary Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor shall not be discharged as to any
Note or this Indenture except by complete performance of the obligations contained in such Note and this Indenture and such Subsidiary
Guarantee. Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby agrees that, in the event of a Default in payment of principal or premium, if any,
or interest on any Note, whether at its Stated Maturity, by acceleration, call for redemption, purchase or otherwise, legal proceedings
may be instituted by the Trustee on behalf of, or by, the Holder of such Note, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Indenture,
directly against each of the Subsidiary Guarantors to enforce each such Subsidiary Guarantor’s Subsidiary Guarantee without first
proceeding against the Issuer or any other Subsidiary Guarantor. Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that if, after the occurrence and during
the continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee or any of the Holders are prevented by applicable law from exercising their respective
rights to accelerate the maturity of the Notes, to collect interest on the Notes, or to enforce or exercise any other right or remedy
with respect to the Notes, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall pay to the Trustee for the account of the Holders, upon demand therefor, the
amount that would otherwise have been due and payable had such rights and remedies been permitted to be exercised by the Trustee or any
of the Holders and any other amounts due and owing to the Trustee under this Indenture.


 






    -69-


     


    

 


(d)            If
any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, or any custodian,
trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, any amount paid by any of
them to the Trustee or such Holder, the Subsidiary Guarantee of each of the Subsidiary Guarantors, to the extent theretofore discharged,
shall be reinstated in full force and effect. This paragraph (d) shall remain effective notwithstanding any contrary action which
may be taken by the Trustee or any Holder in reliance upon such amount required to be returned. This paragraph (d) shall survive
the termination of this Indenture.


 


(e)            Each
Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that, as between each Subsidiary Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the
other hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article VI for the purposes
of the Subsidiary Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration
in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article VI,
such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by each Subsidiary Guarantor for the purpose
of the Subsidiary Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor.


 


(f)             Each
Subsidiary Guarantor that makes a payment for distribution under its Subsidiary Guarantee is entitled upon payment in full of all guaranteed
obligations under this Indenture to seek contribution from each other Subsidiary Guarantor in a pro rata amount of such payment based
on the respective net assets of all the Subsidiary Guarantors at the time of such payment in accordance with GAAP.


 


SECTION 10.2.  Execution
and Delivery of Guarantee. To evidence its Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in Section 10.1, each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that
this Indenture or a supplemental indenture in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B shall be executed on behalf
of such Subsidiary Guarantor by an Officer of such Subsidiary Guarantor (or, if an officer is not available, by a board member or director
or other duly authorized signatory) on behalf of such Subsidiary Guarantor. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that its Subsidiary
Guarantee set forth in Section 10.1 hereof shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the absence of the endorsement of
any notation of such Subsidiary Guarantee on the Notes. In case the Officer, board member or director of such Subsidiary Guarantor whose
signature is on this Indenture or supplemental indenture, as applicable, no longer holds office at the time the Trustee authenticates
any Note, the Subsidiary Guarantee shall be valid nevertheless.


 


The delivery of any Note by
the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in this Indenture
on behalf of the Subsidiary Guarantors.


 


SECTION 10.3.  Severability.
In case any provision of any Subsidiary Guarantee shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability
of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.


 


SECTION 10.4.  Limitation
of Subsidiary Guarantors’ Liability. Each Subsidiary Guarantor and by its acceptance hereof each Holder confirms that it is
the intention of all such parties that the Subsidiary Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance
for purposes of the Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal
or state law or the provisions of its local law relating to fraudulent transfer or conveyance. To effectuate the foregoing intention,
the Trustee, the Holders and Subsidiary Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under its
Subsidiary Guarantee shall be limited to the maximum amount that will not, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities
of such Subsidiary Guarantor (including, without limitation, any guarantees under the Amended Credit Agreement) and after giving effect
to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Subsidiary Guarantor in respect
of the obligations of such other Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee, result in the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor
under its Subsidiary Guarantee constituting a fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent preference or fraudulent transfer or otherwise reviewable
under applicable law.


 






    -70-


     


    

 


SECTION 10.5.  Releases.
A Subsidiary Guarantee of a Subsidiary Guarantor shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon:


 


(a)            any
sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of such Subsidiary Guarantor (including by way of merger
or consolidation) to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary
of the Issuer, if the sale or other disposition does not violate Section 4.10 of this Indenture;


 


(b)           any
sale, transfer or other disposition of Capital Stock of such Subsidiary Guarantor (including by way of merger or consolidation) to a Person
that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer, if after such
sale, transfer or disposition, the Subsidiary Guarantor would cease to be a Restricted Subsidiary and the sale or other disposition does
not violate Section 4.10 of this Indenture;


 


(c)            the
exercise by the Issuer of its Legal Defeasance option or its Covenant Defeasance option or the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture,
in each case as provided under Article VIII;


 


(d)           the
proper designation of such Subsidiary Guarantor by the Issuer as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the terms of this Indenture;
or


 


(e)            the
Subsidiary Guarantor ceasing to guarantee any Debt of the Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor under, or be a borrower under, the Amended
Credit Agreement and, at such time, such Subsidiary Guarantor does not have any other Debt outstanding that required such Subsidiary Guarantor
to guarantee the Notes pursuant to Section 4.15, and no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.


 


Upon delivery to the Trustee
of an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that all conditions precedent to the release of a Subsidiary
Guarantor’s Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in this Indenture have been satisfied, the Subsidiary Guarantor shall be deemed automatically
and unconditionally released and discharged. The Trustee shall execute any documents reasonably requested by the Issuer in writing in
order to evidence the release of any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee at the Issuer’s direction
and expense. With their acquisition of the Notes, the Holders of the Notes have acknowledged that any release of a Subsidiary Guarantor
in accordance with this Section 10.5 shall be deemed not to impair the Holder’s repayment rights with respect to the Notes.


 


Any Subsidiary Guarantor not
released from its obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee shall remain liable for the full amount of principal of and interest on the
Notes and for the other obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor under this Indenture as provided in this Article X.


 


SECTION 10.6.  Benefits
Acknowledged. Each Subsidiary Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements
contemplated by this Indenture and that its guarantee and waivers pursuant to its Subsidiary Guarantee are knowingly made in contemplation
of such benefits.

shall bind their respective successors and assigns. All agreements of the Trustee in this Indenture shall bind its respective successors

SECTION 11.9.  Severability.
In case any provision, or portion thereof, in this Indenture or in the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity,
legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.


 


SECTION 11.10.Execution
in Counterparts. This Indenture may be executed in two or more counterparts, which when so executed shall constitute one and the same
agreement. The exchange of copies of this Indenture and of signature pages by facsimile or PDF transmission shall constitute effective
execution and delivery of this Indenture as to the parties hereto and may be used in lieu of the original Indenture for all purposes.
Signatures of the parties hereto transmitted by facsimile or PDF shall be deemed to be their original signatures for all purposes. The
words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating
to this Indenture or any document to be signed in connection with this Indenture shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, deliveries
or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually
executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, and the parties hereto
consent to conduct the transactions contemplated hereunder by electronic means. This Indenture shall be valid, binding, and enforceable
against a party only when executed and delivered by an authorized individual on behalf of the party by means of (i) any electronic
signature permitted by the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, state enactments of the Uniform Electronic
Transactions Act, and/or any other relevant electronic signatures law, including relevant provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code/UCC

manual signature. Each electronic signature or faxed, scanned, or photocopied manual signature shall for all purposes have the same validity,
legal effect, and admissibility in evidence as an original manual signature. Each party hereto shall be entitled to conclusively rely
upon, and shall have no liability with respect to, any faxed, scanned, or photocopied manual signature, or other electronic signature,
of any party and shall have no duty to investigate, confirm or otherwise verify the validity or authenticity thereof. This Indenture may
be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but such counterparts shall, together, constitute
one and the same instrument. For avoidance of doubt, original manual signatures shall be used for execution or indorsement of writings
when required under the UCC or other Signature Law due to the character or intended character of the writings.

of Contents, Headings, Etc. The Table of Contents, Cross-Reference Table and Headings of the Articles and Sections of this Indenture

restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.


 


SECTION 11.12.Acts
of Holders.


 


(a)            Any
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by
Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or
by agent duly appointed in writing (or, with respect to Global Notes, otherwise in accordance with the rules and procedures of the
Depositary); and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments
are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer. Such instrument or instruments (and the action
embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of Holders signing such instrument
or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose
of this Indenture and conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Issuer, if made in the manner provided in this Section 11.12.


 


(b)            The
fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved (1) by the affidavit of a witness of
such execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying
that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to such officer the execution thereof or (2) in any other manner
reasonably deemed sufficient by the Trustee. Where such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than such signer’s individual
capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of such signer’s authority. The fact and date of
the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner
which the Trustee deems sufficient.

(c)            The
ownership of Notes shall be proved by the register maintained by the Registrar hereunder.


 


(d)            Any
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act of the Holder of any Note shall bind every future Holder
of the same Note and the Holder of every Note issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof
in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the Issuer in reliance thereon, whether or not notation
of such action is made upon such Note.


 


(e)            If
the Issuer shall solicit from the Holders any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, the Issuer
may, at its option, by or pursuant to an Officer’s Certificate, fix in advance a record date for the determination of Holders entitled
to give such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, but the Issuer shall have no obligation
to do so. If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act may be
given before or after such record date, but only the Holders of record at the close of business on such record date shall be deemed to
be Holders for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of outstanding Notes have authorized or agreed
or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and for that purpose the outstanding
Notes shall be computed as of such record date; provided that no such authorization, agreement or consent by the Holders on such
record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later than six
months after the record date.


 


(f)             The
Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to join in
the giving or making of (1) any notice of default under Section 6.1, (2) any declaration of acceleration referred to in
Section 6.2, (3) any direction referred to in Section 6.5 or (4) any request to pursue a remedy as permitted in Section 6.6.
If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to join
in such notice, declaration, request or direction, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that
no such action shall be effective hereunder unless made, given or taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the
requisite principal amount of Notes or each affected Holder, as applicable, on such record date. Promptly after any record date is set
pursuant to this paragraph, the Trustee, at the Issuer’s expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by
Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Issuer and to each Holder in the manner set forth in Section 11.1.


 


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


 


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


 


(i)             The
Issuer may fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Persons who are beneficial owners of interests in any Global Note held
by a Depositary entitled under the procedures of such Depositary, if any, to make, give or take, by a proxy or proxies duly appointed
in writing, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided in this Indenture to be made,
given or taken by Holders; provided that if such a record date is fixed, only the beneficial owners of interests in such Global
Note on such record date or their duly appointed proxy or proxies shall be entitled to make, give or take such request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, whether or not such beneficial owners remain beneficial owners of interests in such
Global Note after such record date. No such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action shall be
effective hereunder unless made, given or taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date.

(j)             With
respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section 11.12, the party hereto that sets such record date may designate any day
as the “Expiration Date” and from time to time may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or later day; provided
that no such change shall be effective unless notice of the proposed new Expiration Date is given to the other party hereto in writing,
and to each Holder of Notes in the manner set forth in Section 11.1, on or prior to both the existing and the new Expiration Date.
If an Expiration Date is not designated with respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section 11.12, the party hereto which
set such record date shall be deemed to have initially designated the 90th day after such record date as the Expiration Date with respect
thereto, subject to its right to change the Expiration Date as provided in this clause (j).


 


SECTION 11.13.Force
Majeure. In no event shall the Trustee or any Agent be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations
hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, (i) any
act or provision of any present or future law or regulation or governmental authority, (ii) any act of God, (iii) nuclear or
natural disaster, (iv) pandemics, (v) epidemics, (vi) quarantine restrictions, (vii)  war, (viii) terrorism,
(ix) civil unrest, (x) national emergency, (xi) malware or ransomware, interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities,
communications or computer (software and hardware) services, and hacking, cyber-attacks, or other use or infiltration of the Trustee’s
technological infrastructure exceeding authorized access, (xii) unavailability of the Federal Reserve Bank wire or telex system or
other wire or other funds transfer systems, or (xiii) unavailability of any securities clearing system, it being understood that
the Trustee and each Agent shall use reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the U.S. banking industry to resume
performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances.


 


SECTION 11.14.Legal
Holidays. If any payment date with respect to the Notes falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment to be made on such
payment date will be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such payment date, and no additional
interest will accrue solely as a result of such delayed payment.


 


SECTION 11.15.USA
PATRIOT Act. The parties hereto acknowledge that in accordance with Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act, the Trustee, like all
financial institutions and in order to help fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering, is required to obtain, verify, and record
information that identifies each person or legal entity that establishes a relationship or opens an account. The parties hereto agrees
that it will provide the Trustee with information about the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors as the Trustee may reasonably request
in order for the Trustee to satisfy the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act.

3.875% Senior Notes due 2029


 


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


 


(1)           Interest.
Papa John’s International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (collectively with successors and assigns, the “Issuer”),
promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of this 3.875% Senior Note due 2029 (a “Note”) at a fixed rate
of 3.875% per annum. The Issuer will pay interest in U.S. dollars semiannually in arrears on March 15 and September 15, commencing
on March 15, 2022 (each an “Interest Payment Date”) or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding
Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such Interest Payment Date, and no additional interest shall accrue solely as
a result of such delayed payment. Interest on the Notes shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid, or, if
no interest has been paid, from and including the date of issuance. The Issuer shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in
any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal at the rate equal to the then applicable interest rate on the Notes to the
extent lawful; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments
of interest (without regard to any applicable grace period), at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest shall be computed on the
basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.


 


(2)           Method
of Payment. The Issuer will pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) on the applicable Interest Payment Date to the Persons
who are registered Holders at the close of business on the March 1 and September 1 preceding the Interest Payment Date (whether
or not a Business Day), even if such Notes are cancelled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as
provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. If a Holder having an aggregate principal amount of
Notes of more than $5,000,000 has given written wire transfer instructions to that holder’s U.S. dollar account within the United
States to the Trustee at least 10 Business Days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date, the Issuer will make all payments of principal,
premium and interest, on such Holder’s Notes by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account specified in those instructions.
Otherwise, payments on the Notes will be made at the office or agency of the Trustee or Paying Agent unless the Issuer elects to make
interest payments by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders. Such payment shall be in such
coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.


 


Any payments of principal
of this Note prior to Stated Maturity shall be binding upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration
of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not noted hereon. The final principal amount due and payable at
the maturity of this Note shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of this Note at an office of the Trustee or the Trustee’s
agent appointed for such purposes. Payments in respect of Global Notes will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to
the Depositary.


 


(3)           Paying
Agent and Registrar. Initially, the Trustee shall act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent or Registrar
without notice to any Holder, and the Issuer and/or any Restricted Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.


 


(4)           Indenture.
The Issuer issued the Notes under an Indenture, dated as of September 14, 2021 (the “Indenture”), among the Issuer,
the Subsidiary Guarantors thereto and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture. To the extent the provisions
of this Note are inconsistent with the provisions of the Indenture, the Indenture shall govern. The Notes are subject to all such terms,
and Holders are referred to the Indenture for a statement of such terms. The Initial Notes issued on the Issue Date were initially issued
in an aggregate principal amount of $400,000,000. The Indenture permits the issuance of Additional Notes subject to compliance with certain
conditions.


 


The payment of principal,
interest on the Notes and all other amounts under the Indenture is unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior unsecured
basis by the Subsidiary Guarantors.

Notes may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time prior to September 15, 2024 at the option of the Issuer,

(b)             At
any time or from time to time on or after September 15, 2024, the Issuer, at its option, may redeem the Notes in whole or in part
at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed) set forth below, together with accrued
and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant
regular record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date), if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning September 15

may use an amount not greater than the amount of such net cash proceeds to redeem up to 40% of the original aggregate principal amount
of all Notes issued (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of Additional Notes) at a redemption price of 103.875% of the principal
amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable redemption date (subject to the rights of
Holders of Notes on the relevant regular record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date); provided that:


 


(1)           at
least 50.0% of the original aggregate principal amount of all Notes issued (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of Additional
Notes) remains outstanding after each such redemption; and


 


(2)           the

Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in connection

to purchase with the proceeds from any Asset Disposition) and the Issuer, or any other Person making such offer in lieu of the Issuer,
purchases all of the Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn by such Holders, the Issuer will have the right, upon not less than
10 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, to redeem all Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price
in cash equal to the applicable price paid to Holders in such purchase, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the
redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant regular record date to receive interest due on the relevant
interest payment date).


 


(6)             Offer
to Purchase upon Change of Control or Asset Disposition.


 


(a)             Upon
the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Issuer may be required to offer to repurchase all or any part of each Holder’s Notes
pursuant to a Change of Control Offer on terms set forth in the Indenture.


 


(b)             Upon
the occurrence of certain Asset Dispositions, the Issuer may be required to offer to purchase Notes as provided in the Indenture.

(7)             Notice
of Redemption. Notice of redemption shall be delivered at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date (except
that notices may be delivered more than 60 days before an expected redemption date if the notice is issued in accordance with Article VIII
of the Indenture) to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed in accordance with Section 11.1 of the Indenture. Notices of redemption
may be subject to conditions precedent as set forth in the Indenture. Notes in denominations larger than $2,000 may be redeemed in part
so long as no partial redemption results in a Note having a principal amount that is not a multiple of $1,000.


 


(8)             Denominations,
Transfer, Exchange. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in initial denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of
$1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of the Notes may be registered and the Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The
Registrar, the Trustee and the Issuer may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents,
and the Issuer may require a Holder to pay any stamp or transfer tax or similar government charge required by law or permitted by the
Indenture in accordance with Section 2.6(g)(2) of the Indenture. The Registrar is not required (A) to issue, to register
the transfer of or to exchange Notes during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of any selection of Notes
for redemption and ending at the close of business on the day of such selection, (B) to register the transfer of or to exchange any
Note so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part, or (C) to
register the transfer of or to exchange a Note between a record date and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date.


 


(9)             Persons
Deemed Owners. The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes.


 


(10)           Amendment,
Supplement and Waiver. The Indenture, the Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees may be amended or supplemented as provided in the Indenture.


 


(11)           Defaults
and Remedies. If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default relating to certain bankruptcy events) shall have occurred and
be continuing under the Indenture, the Trustee, by written notice to the Issuer, or the Holders of at least 25.0% in aggregate principal
amount of the Notes then outstanding by written notice to the Issuer and the Trustee, may declare all amounts owing under the Notes to
be due and payable. Upon such acceleration declaration, the aggregate principal of and accrued and unpaid interest on the outstanding
Notes shall become due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default relating to specified bankruptcy events occurs, then all unpaid
principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all of the outstanding Notes shall ipso facto become and be immediately due
and payable without any declaration or other action or notice on the part of the Trustee or any Holder of the Notes. Accelerations may
be rescinded, and Events of Default may be waived as provided in the Indenture.


 


(12)           No
Recourse Against Others. No past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner or stockholder of the
Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor (other
than the Issuer in respect of the Notes and each Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of its Subsidiary Guarantee) under the Notes, the Subsidiary
Guarantees or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder
by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes.
The waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities law.


 


(13)           Authentication.
This Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual or electronic signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent.


 


(14)           Abbreviations.
Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants
by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= custodian) and U/G/M/A (=
Uniform Gifts to Minors Act).

has caused CUSIP and ISIN numbers to be printed on the Notes, and the Trustee may use CUSIP and ISIN numbers in notices of redemption
as a convenience to the Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained

		Re:	Papa John’s International, Inc. (the “Issuer”) 3.875% Senior Notes due 2029 (the “Notes”)



 


Ladies and Gentlemen:


 


This certificate is delivered to request a transfer of $                    
principal amount of the Notes.


 


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


 


Name:________________________________________


 


Address:______________________________________


 


Taxpayer ID Number:____________________________


 


The undersigned represents and warrants to you that:


 


1.              We
are an institutional “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3), (7), (9) or (12) under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)), purchasing for our own account or for the account of such an institutional
 “accredited investor” at least $250,000 principal amount of the Notes, and we are acquiring the Notes not with a view to,
or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution in violation of the Securities Act. We have such knowledge and experience in
financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risk of our investment in the Notes, and we invest in or
purchase securities similar to the Notes in the normal course of our business. We and any accounts for which we are acting are each able
to bear the economic risk of our or its investment.


 






    D-1


     


    

 


2.            We
understand that the Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act (or the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction)
and, unless so registered, may not be reoffered, sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, encumbered or otherwise disposed of except as permitted
in the following sentence. We agree on our own behalf and on behalf of any investor account for which we are purchasing Notes to offer,
sell or otherwise transfer such Notes prior to the date that is one year after the later of the date of original issue, the original issue
date of any additional Notes and the last date on which the Issuer or any affiliate of the Issuer was the owner of such Notes (or any
predecessor thereto) (the “Resale Restriction Termination Date”) only (a) to the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries,
(b) pursuant to a registration statement that has been declared effective under the Securities Act, (c) for so long as the Securities
are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act, in a transaction complying with the requirements of Rule 144A
under the Securities Act, to a person we reasonably believe is a “qualified institutional buyer” under Rule 144A under
the Securities Act (a “QIB”) that is purchasing for its own account or for the account of a QIB and to whom notice
is given that the transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A, (d) pursuant to offers and sales that occur outside the United
States to non-U.S. persons, in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act, (e) to an institutional “accredited investor”
within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3), (7), (9) or (12) under the Securities Act that is not a QIB and is purchasing
for its own account or for the account of another institutional “accredited investor,” in each case in a minimum principal
amount of Securities of $250,000, for investment purposes and not with a view to or for offer or sale in connection with any distribution
in violation of the Securities Act or (f) pursuant to any other available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities
Act, subject in each of the foregoing cases to any requirement of law that the disposition of our property or the property of such investor
account or accounts be at all times within our or their control and in compliance with any applicable state securities laws. The foregoing
restrictions on resale will not apply subsequent to the Resale Restriction Termination Date. If any resale or other transfer of the Notes
is proposed to be made pursuant to clause (e) above prior to the Resale Restriction Termination Date, the transferor shall deliver
a letter from the transferee substantially in the form of this letter to the Issuer and Truist Bank, as trustee (the “Trustee”),
which shall provide, among other things, that the transferee is an institutional “accredited investor” (within the meaning
of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3), (7), (9) or (12) under the Securities Act) and that it is acquiring such Securities for investment
purposes and not for distribution in violation of the Securities Act. Each purchaser acknowledges that the Issuer and the Trustee reserve
the right prior to any offer, sale or other transfer prior to the Resale Restriction Termination Date of the Notes pursuant to clause
(d), (e) or (f) above to require the delivery of an opinion of counsel, certifications and/or other information satisfactory
to the Issuer and the Trustee.
