corporation (the “Company”), each of the Subsidiary Guarantors named herein (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”) and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (the “Trustee”). 

Each party agrees as follows for the benefit of the other parties and for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders (as defined below)
of the Company’s Initial Securities, Exchange Securities and Private Exchange Securities (in each case, as defined in the Rule 144A/Regulation S/IAI Appendix attached hereto, collectively, the “Securities”): 

Article 1 

Definitions and Incorporation by Reference 

SECTION 1.01. Definitions.  

“Additional Assets” means 
  

	 	(1)	any property, plant or equipment used in a Related Business; 

  

	 	(2)	any other asset used in a Related Business; 

  

	 	(3)	the Equity Interests of a Person that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of the acquisition of such Equity Interests by the Company or another Restricted
Subsidiary; or 

  

	 	(4)	Equity Interests constituting a minority interest in any Person that at such time is a Restricted Subsidiary; 


provided, however, that any such Restricted Subsidiary described in clause (3) or (4) above is primarily engaged in a Related
Business. 
 “Additional Securities” means any Securities issued under this Indenture after the Issue Date and
in compliance with Sections 2.13 and 4.03, it being understood that any Securities issued in exchange for or replacement of any Initial Security issued on the Issue Date shall not be an Additional Security, including any such Securities issued
pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement. 
 “Adjusted Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption
date, (i) the yield, under the heading which represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently published statistical release designated “H.15(519)” or any successor publication which is
published weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption

  

 1 








 
“Treasury Constant Maturities,” for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue (if no maturity is within three months before or after April 15, 2013, yields for
the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue shall be determined and the Adjusted Treasury Rate shall be interpolated or extrapolated from such yields on a straight-line basis, rounding to the nearest
month) or (ii) if such release (or any successor release) is not published during the week preceding the calculation date or does not contain such yields, the rate per year equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable
Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such redemption date, in each case calculated on the third Business Day immediately preceding the redemption date, plus 0.50%. 

“Affiliate” of any specified Person means any other Person, directly or indirectly, controlling or controlled by or
under direct or indirect common control with such specified Person. For the purposes of this definition, “control” when used with respect to any Person means the power to direct the management and policies of such Person, directly or
indirectly, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise; and the terms “controlling” and “controlled” have meanings correlative to the foregoing. 

“Applicable Premium” means, as calculated by the Company, with respect to a Security at any redemption date, the greater
of (i) 1.00% of the principal amount of such Security and (ii) the excess of (A) the present value at such redemption date of (1) the redemption price of such Security on April 15, 2013 (such redemption price as set forth in
the second paragraph of Section 6 of the Securities exclusive of any accrued interest) plus (2) all required remaining scheduled interest payments due on such Security through April 15, 2013 (but excluding accrued and unpaid interest
to the redemption date), computed using a discount rate equal to the Adjusted Treasury Rate, over (B) the principal amount of such Security on such redemption date. 

“Applicable Senior Indebtedness” means 

(1) in respect of any asset that is the subject of an Asset Disposition at a time when such asset is included in the Collateral,
other Senior Indebtedness that is secured at such time by a Permitted Collateral Lien on such asset; 
 (2) in respect of
any asset that is the subject of an Asset Disposition at a time when such asset is owned, directly or indirectly, by a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Subsidiary Guarantor but the Equity Interests of which is included in the Collateral, other
Senior Indebtedness that is secured at such time by a Permitted Collateral Lien on such Equity Interests; or 
 (3) in
respect of any other asset (including any asset previously constituting Collateral that has been released from the Liens securing the Securities and the Subsidiary Guarantees), other Senior Indebtedness that is not a Subordinated Obligation.

  

 2 








 “Asset Disposition” means any sale, lease, transfer or other disposition
(or series of related sales, leases, transfers or dispositions) by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, including any disposition by means of a merger, consolidation or similar transaction (each referred to for the purposes of this definition
as a “disposition”), of: 
  

	 	(1)	any Equity Interests of a Restricted Subsidiary (other than directors’ (or similar persons) qualifying shares or shares required by applicable law to be held by a
Person other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary); 

  

	 	(2)	all or substantially all the assets of any division or line of business of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary; or 


 

	 	(3)	any other assets of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary outside of the ordinary course of business of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary;


 other than, in the case of clauses (1), (2) and (3) above, 

 

	 	(A)	a disposition by a Restricted Subsidiary to the Company or by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary to a Restricted Subsidiary; 


 

	 	(B)	for purposes of Section 4.06 only, (x) a disposition that constitutes a Restricted Payment (or would constitute a Restricted Payment but for the
exclusions from the definition thereof) and that is not prohibited by Section 4.04 and (y) a disposition of all or substantially all the assets of the Company in accordance with Section 5.01; 


 

	 	(C)	a disposition of assets with a Fair Market Value of less than $1,000,000; 

  


	 	(D)	a disposition of cash or Cash Equivalents; 

  

	 	(E)	the disposition of equipment, inventory (including raw materials, work-in-progress and finished goods), accounts receivable or other assets or rights in the ordinary
course of business, including any excess, obsolete, damaged, worn-out or surplus assets no longer used or useful in the conduct of business as then being conducted; 


 

	 	(F)	the creation of a Lien (but not the sale or other disposition of the property subject to such Lien); and 


 

	 	(G)	foreclosures on assets not constituting Collateral. 

  

 3 








 “Attributable Debt” in respect of a Sale/Leaseback Transaction means, as at
the time of determination, the present value of the total obligations of the lessee for rental payments during the remaining term of the lease included in such Sale/Leaseback Transaction (including any period for which such lease has been extended);
provided, however, that if such Sale/Leaseback Transaction results in a Capital Lease Obligation, the amount of Indebtedness represented thereby will be determined in accordance with the definition of “Capital Lease
Obligation.” Such present value shall be calculated using a discount rate equal to the rate of interest implicit in such transaction determined in accordance with GAAP (or, in the absence thereof, the original yield to maturity of the
Securities issued on the Issue Date).

any Indebtedness, the quotient obtained by dividing: 
  

	 	(1)	the sum of the products of the number of years from the date of determination to the date of each successive scheduled principal payment of or redemption or similar
payment with respect to such Indebtedness multiplied by the amount of such payment by

Stated Maturity thereof shall be the date of the last payment of rent or any other amount due under such lease prior to the first date upon which such lease may be terminated by the lessee without payment of a penalty. For purposes of
Section 4.10, a Capital Lease Obligation will be deemed to be secured by a Lien on the property being leased.

“P-1” (or higher) according to Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or “A-1” (or higher) according to Standard & Poor’s Ratings Group; 

(6) investments in securities with maturity of 360 days or less from the date of acquisition issued or fully guaranteed by any state,

Voting Stock of the Company; provided, however, that for purposes of this clause (1) such other Person shall be deemed to have “beneficial ownership” of any Voting Stock of a Person held by any other Person (the
“parent entity”), if such other Person is the beneficial owner (as defined above in this clause (1)), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the total voting power of the Voting Stock of such parent entity;

	 	(1)	if the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary has Incurred any Indebtedness since the beginning of such period (other than ordinary working capital borrowings) that
remains outstanding or if the transaction giving rise to the need to calculate the Consolidated Coverage Ratio is an Incurrence of Indebtedness, or both, EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period shall be calculated after giving
effect on a pro forma basis to such Indebtedness as if such Indebtedness had been Incurred (and the proceeds thereof applied) on the first day of such period; 


 

	 	(2)	if the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary has repaid, repurchased, defeased or otherwise discharged any Indebtedness since the beginning of such period or if any
Indebtedness is to be repaid, repurchased, defeased or otherwise discharged (in each case other than Indebtedness Incurred under any revolving credit facility unless such Indebtedness has been permanently repaid and has not been replaced) on the
date of the transaction giving rise to the need to calculate the Consolidated Coverage Ratio, EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period shall be calculated on a pro forma basis as if such discharge had occurred on the
first day of such period and as if the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary had not earned the interest income actually earned during such period in respect of cash or Cash Equivalents used to repay, repurchase, defease or otherwise discharge such
Indebtedness; 

  

	 	(3)	 if since the beginning of such period the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary shall have made any Asset Disposition, EBITDA for such period shall be
reduced by an amount equal to EBITDA (if positive) directly attributable to the assets which are the subject of such Asset Disposition for such period, or increased by an amount equal to EBITDA (if negative), directly attributable



  

 7 









	 	 
thereto for such period, and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Consolidated Interest Expense directly attributable to any Indebtedness of
the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary repaid, repurchased, defeased or otherwise discharged with respect to the Company and its continuing Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with such Asset Disposition for such period (or, if the Equity
Interests of any Restricted Subsidiary is sold, the Consolidated Interest Expense for such period directly attributable to the Indebtedness of such Restricted Subsidiary to the extent the Company and its continuing Restricted Subsidiaries are no
longer liable for such Indebtedness after such sale); 


  

	 	(4)	if since the beginning of such period the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (by merger or otherwise) shall have made an Investment in any Restricted Subsidiary (or
any Person which becomes a Restricted Subsidiary) or an acquisition of assets, including any acquisition of assets occurring in connection with a transaction requiring a calculation to be made hereunder, which constitutes all or substantially all of
an operating unit of a business, EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period shall be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto (including the Incurrence of any Indebtedness) as if such Investment or acquisition had
occurred on the first day of such period; and 

  

	 	(5)	if since the beginning of such period any Person (that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged with or into the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary
since the beginning of such period) shall have made any Asset Disposition, any Investment or acquisition of assets that would have required an adjustment pursuant to clause (3) or (4) above if made by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary
during such period, EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period shall be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Asset Disposition, Investment or acquisition had occurred on the first day of such
period. 

 For purposes of this definition, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to any of the transactions

to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefor pursuant to Section 7.07. The Company or any Wholly Owned Subsidiary incorporated or organized within the United
States of America may act as Paying Agent, Registrar, co-registrar or transfer agent. 
  

 35 








 The Company initially appoints the Trustee as Registrar and Paying Agent in connection with
the Securities. 
 SECTION 2.04. Paying Agent To Hold Money in Trust. The Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent a
sum sufficient to pay such principal and interest when so becoming due on the dates and in the manner provided in the Securities. Principal, premium, if any, and interest will be considered paid on the date due if the Paying Agent holds (as of
12:00 p.m., New York City time, on the due date) money deposited by the Company in immediately available funds and designated for and sufficient to pay all principal and premium, if any, and interest, if any, then due. The Company 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 Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of or interest on the Securities and
shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Company in making any such payment. If the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the money held by it as Paying Agent and hold it as a separate trust fund. The
Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed by the Paying Agent. Upon complying with this Section 2.04, the Paying Agent shall have no further liability for
the money delivered to the Trustee. 
 SECTION 2.05. Securityholder 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 Securityholders. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee, in writing at least five 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 Securityholders. 

SECTION 2.06. Transfer and Exchange. The Securities shall be issued in registered form and shall be transferable only upon the
surrender of a Security for registration of transfer. When a Security is presented to the Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to register a transfer, the Registrar shall register the transfer as requested if the requirements of this Indenture
and Section 8-401(a) of the Uniform Commercial Code are met. When Securities are presented to the Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Securities of other denominations, the Registrar
shall make the exchange as requested if the same requirements are met. 
 SECTION 2.07. Replacement Securities. If a
mutilated Security is surrendered to the Registrar or if the Holder of a Security claims that the Security has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Security if the
requirements of Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code are met and the Holder satisfies any other reasonable requirements of the Trustee. If required by the Trustee or the Company, such Holder shall furnish an indemnity bond that is
sufficient in the judgment of the Company and the Trustee to protect the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar and any co-registrar from any loss which any of them may suffer if a Security is replaced. The Company and the Trustee may
charge the Holder for their expenses in replacing a Security. 
  

 36 








 Every replacement Security is an additional Obligation of the Company. 

SECTION 2.08. Outstanding Securities. Securities outstanding at any time are all Securities authenticated by the Trustee except
for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation and those described in this Section as not outstanding. A Security does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Security. 

If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee and the Company receive proof
satisfactory to them that the replaced Security is held by a protected purchaser (as defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code). 

If the Paying Agent segregates and holds in trust, in accordance with this Indenture, on a redemption date or maturity date money
sufficient to pay all principal and interest payable on that date with respect to the Securities (or portions thereof) to be redeemed or maturing, as the case may be, then on and after that date such Securities (or portions thereof) cease to be
outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue. 
 SECTION 2.09. Temporary Securities. Until definitive Securities are
ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Securities. Temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of definitive Securities but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for
temporary Securities. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate definitive Securities and deliver them in exchange for temporary Securities. 

SECTION 2.10. Cancellation. The Company at any time may deliver Securities to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and the
Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else shall cancel and destroy (subject to the record retention requirements of the Exchange Act)
all Securities surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation and deliver a certificate of such destruction to the Company unless the Company directs the Trustee to deliver canceled Securities to the Company. The Company
may not issue new Securities to replace Securities it has redeemed, paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 

SECTION 2.11. Defaulted Interest. If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on the Securities, the Company shall pay
defaulted interest (plus interest on such defaulted interest to the extent lawful) in any lawful manner at the rate provided in the Securities and Section 4.01 hereof. The Company may pay the defaulted interest at the rate provided in the
Securities and Section 4.01 hereof to the persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date. The Company shall fix or cause to be fixed any such special record date and payment date to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee and
shall promptly mail to each Holder a notice that states the special record date, the payment date and the amount of defaulted interest to be paid. 
  

 37 








 SECTION 2.12. CUSIP Numbers, ISINs, etc. The Company in issuing the Securities may
use “CUSIP” numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers (in each case if then generally in use) and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers in notices of redemption as a
convenience to Holders; provided, however, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be
placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company shall advise the Trustee in writing of any change in any
“CUSIP” numbers, ISINs or “Common Code” numbers applicable to the Securities. 
 SECTION 2.13. Issuance
of Additional Securities. After the Issue Date, the Company shall be entitled, subject to its compliance with Section 4.03, to issue Additional Securities under this Indenture, which Securities shall have identical terms as the Initial
Securities issued on the Issue Date, other than with respect to the date of issuance and issue price. All the Securities issued under this Indenture shall be treated as a single class for all purposes of this Indenture including waivers, amendments,
redemptions and offers to purchase. 
 With respect to any Additional Securities, the Company shall set forth in a resolution of
the Board of Directors and an Officers’ Certificate, a copy of each which shall be delivered to the Trustee, the following information: 

(1) the aggregate principal amount of such Additional Securities to be authenticated and delivered pursuant to this
Indenture and the provision of Section 4.03 that the Company is relying on to issue such Additional Securities; 

(2) the issue price, the issue date and the CUSIP number of such Additional Securities, if any; provided,
however, that only those Additional Securities that are part of the “same issue” as all other Securities issued under this Indenture, as defined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1275-1(f), or issued in a “qualified
reopening” under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1275-2(k) will be issued with the same CUSIP number as the other Securities issued under this Indenture; and 

(3) whether such Additional Securities shall be issued in the form of Initial Securities as set forth in Exhibit 1 or
shall be issued in the form of Exchange Securities as set forth in Exhibit A. 
  

 38 








 Article 3 

Redemption 

SECTION 3.01. Notices to Trustee. If the Company elects to redeem Securities pursuant to Section 6 of the Securities, it
shall notify the Trustee in writing of the redemption date, the principal amount of Securities to be redeemed and the paragraph of the Securities pursuant to which the redemption will occur. 

The Company shall give each notice to the Trustee provided for in this Section at least 30 days before the redemption notice date
unless the Trustee consents to a shorter period. Such notice shall be accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel from the Company to the effect that such redemption will comply with the conditions herein. 

SECTION 3.02. Selection of Securities to Be Redeemed. If fewer than all the Securities are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall
select the Securities to be redeemed pro rata to the extent practicable, or to the extent not so practicable, by lot or such other method as the Trustee in its sole discretion shall deem to be fair and appropriate, unless another method is required
by law or applicable exchange or depositary requirements. The Trustee shall make the selection from outstanding Securities not previously called for redemption. The Trustee may select for redemption portions of the principal of Securities that have
denominations larger than $2,000. Securities and portions of them the Trustee selects shall be in principal amounts of $2,000 or any greater integral multiple of $1,000 thereof. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to Securities called for
redemption also apply to portions of Securities called for redemption. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of the Securities or portions of Securities to be redeemed. 

SECTION 3.03. Notice of Redemption. At least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a date for redemption of Securities,
the Company shall mail a notice of redemption by first-class mail to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed at such Holder’s registered address, except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to the redemption date if
the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Securities or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Article 8. Any defect in the notice of redemption, including a failure to give notice, to any Holder selected for
redemption shall not impair or affect the validity of the redemption of any other Security redeemed in accordance with provisions of this Indenture. 

The notice shall identify the Securities to be redeemed and shall state: 

(1) the redemption date; 

(2) the redemption price; 

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

 

 39 








 (4) that Securities called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying
Agent to collect the redemption price; 
 (5) if fewer than all the outstanding Securities are to be redeemed,
the identification and principal amounts of the particular Securities to be redeemed; 
 (6) that, unless the
Company defaults in making such redemption payment, interest on Securities (or portion thereof) called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date; 

(7) the “CUSIP” number, ISIN or “Common Code” number, if any, printed on the Securities being
redeemed; and 
 (8) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the “CUSIP”
number, ISIN, or “Common Code” number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Securities. 
 At the
Company’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at the Company’s expense. In such event, the Company shall provide the Trustee with the information required by this Section 3.03, at
least 40 days (unless a shorter time shall also be acceptable to the Trustee) prior to the redemption date. 
 SECTION 3.04.
Effect of Notice of Redemption. Once notice of redemption is mailed, Securities called for redemption become due and payable on the redemption date and at the redemption price stated in the notice, and from and after such redemption date
(unless the Company defaults in the payment of the redemption price and accrued and unpaid interest), such Securities will cease to bear interest. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such Securities shall be paid at the redemption price stated in
the notice, plus accrued interest to the redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the related interest payment date), and such Securities shall be canceled by the Trustee.
Failure to give notice or any defect in the notice to any Holder shall not impair or affect the validity of the notice to any other Holder. 

SECTION 3.05. Deposit of Redemption Price. Prior to the redemption date, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or, if
the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company is the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust) money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on all Securities to be redeemed on that date other than Securities or portions
of Securities called for redemption which have been delivered by the Company to the Trustee for cancellation. 
 SECTION 3.06.
Securities Redeemed in Part. Upon surrender of a Security that is redeemed in part, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder (at the Company’s expense) a new Security equal in principal amount to the
unredeemed portion of the Security surrendered. 
  

 40 








 Article 4 

Covenants 

SECTION 4.01. Payment of Securities. The Company shall promptly pay the principal of and interest on the Securities on the dates
and in the manner provided in the Securities and in this Indenture. Principal and interest shall be considered paid on the date due if on such date the Trustee or the Paying Agent holds in accordance with this Indenture (as of 12:00 p.m., New York
City time, on the due date) money sufficient to pay all principal and interest then due. 
 The Company shall pay interest on
overdue principal at the rate specified therefor in the Securities, and it shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest at the same rate to the extent lawful. 

SECTION 4.02. Reports. Whether or not the Company is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act, the Company shall file with the SEC and provide the Trustee and Holders with such annual and other reports as are specified in Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act and applicable to a U.S. corporation subject to such
Sections, such reports to be so filed and provided within the time periods specified for the filings of such reports under such Sections and containing all the information, audit reports and exhibits required for such reports. If, at any time, the
Company is not subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for any reason, the Company shall nevertheless continue filing the reports specified in the preceding sentence with the SEC within the time periods required unless the
SEC will not accept such a filing. The availability of the foregoing reports on the SEC’s EDGAR service (or successor thereto) shall be deemed to satisfy the Company’s delivery obligations to the Trustee and the Holders. The Company agrees
that it will not take any action for the purpose of causing the SEC not to accept such filings. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, the SEC will not accept such filings for any reason, the Company shall post the specified reports on its website
within the time periods that would apply if the Company were required to file those reports with the SEC. 
 At any time that
any of the Company’s Subsidiaries are Unrestricted Subsidiaries, then the quarterly and annual financial information required by the preceding paragraph shall include a reasonably detailed presentation, either on the face of the financial
statements or in the footnotes thereto, and in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” of the financial condition and results of operations of the Company and the Restricted
Subsidiaries separate from the financial condition and results of operations of the Unrestricted Subsidiaries of the Company. 

In addition, at any time when the Company is not subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act,
the Company shall furnish to the Holders and to prospective investors, upon the requests of such Holders, any information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act so long as the Securities are not freely
transferable under the Securities Act. 
  

 41 








 SECTION 4.03. Limitation on Indebtedness. (a) The Company shall not, and shall
not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, Incur, directly or indirectly, any Indebtedness; provided, however, that the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors will be entitled to Incur Indebtedness if, on the date of such Incurrence and
after giving effect thereto on a pro forma basis, the Consolidated Coverage Ratio exceeds 2.0 to 1.0 (any such Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to this Section 4.03(a) being herein referred to as “Coverage
Indebtedness”). 
 (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing Section 4.03(a), the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries
shall be entitled to Incur any or all of the following Indebtedness (any such Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to this Section 4.03(b) being herein referred to as “Permitted Indebtedness”): 

(1) Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to any Credit Facility in an aggregate amount outstanding at any time not to exceed
$25,000,000 (any such Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to this clause (1) being herein referred to as “Credit Facility Indebtedness”); 

(2) Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to any letters of credit, surety bonds or other similar arrangements procured in the
ordinary course of business (any such Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to this clause (2) being herein referred to as “L/C Indebtedness”); 

(3) Indebtedness owed to and held by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that any
subsequent issuance or transfer of any Equity Interests which results in any such Restricted Subsidiary ceasing to be a Restricted Subsidiary or any subsequent transfer of such Indebtedness (other than to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary)
shall be deemed, in each case, to constitute the Incurrence of such Indebtedness by the obligor thereon; 
 (4)
Indebtedness represented by the Securities to be issued on the Issue Date and the Subsidiary Guarantees thereof (and any Securities and Guarantees issued in exchange for the Securities and Subsidiary Guarantees thereof pursuant to the Registration
Rights Agreement); 
 (5) Indebtedness of the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries outstanding on the Issue
Date (other than Indebtedness described in clause (1), (2) or (3) of this Section 4.03(b)); 

(6) Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary Incurred and outstanding on or prior to the date on which such Subsidiary was
acquired by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary (other than Indebtedness Incurred in connection with, or to provide all or any portion of the funds or credit support utilized to consummate, the transaction or series of related transactions
pursuant to which such Subsidiary became a Subsidiary or was acquired by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary); provided, however, that on the date such Restricted Subsidiary was acquired by the Company or by a Restricted Subsidiary
or otherwise became a Restricted 
  

 42 








 
Subsidiary and after giving effect to the Incurrence of such Indebtedness, the Company would have been able to Incur an additional $1.00 of Coverage Indebtedness pursuant to Section 4.03(a);

 (7) Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of Coverage Indebtedness or of Permitted Indebtedness Incurred
pursuant to clause (4), (5) or (6) of this Section 4.03(b) or this clause (7); provided, however, that to the extent such Refinancing Indebtedness directly or indirectly Refinances Indebtedness of a Subsidiary
Incurred pursuant to clause (6), such Refinancing Indebtedness shall be Incurred only by such Subsidiary; 

(8) Hedging Obligations (excluding Hedging Obligations entered into for speculative purposes) consisting of Interest Rate
Agreements; 
 (9) Obligations in respect of workers’ compensation and auto claims, payment obligations in
connection with health or other types of social security benefits, unemployment or other insurance or self-insurance obligations, insurance premium finance agreements, reclamation, statutory and regulatory obligations, bankers’ acceptances,
performance, bid, surety or similar bonds and letters of credit or completion and performance guarantees or equipment leases or other similar obligations provided by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in the ordinary course of business;

 (10) Indebtedness arising from the honoring by a bank or other financial institution of a check, draft or
similar instrument drawn against insufficient funds in the ordinary course of business; provided, however, that such Indebtedness is extinguished within five Business Days of its Incurrence; 

(11) Indebtedness consisting of the Guarantee by any Subsidiary Guarantor of any Indebtedness of the Company or any
Subsidiary Guarantor that was permitted to be Incurred by the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to this Indenture; provided, however, that if the Indebtedness being Guaranteed is subordinated to or pari passu with the
Securities, then the Guarantee thereof shall be subordinated or pari passu, as applicable, to the same extent as the Indebtedness being Guaranteed; 

(12) Attributable Debt and Purchase Money Indebtedness or Capital Lease Obligations Incurred to finance all or any part of
the purchase price or cost of design, development, construction, installation or improvement of property (real or personal and including acquisitions of Equity Interests), plant, equipment or vehicles used in the business of the Company or any of
the Restricted Subsidiaries (in each case, whether through the direct purchase of such assets or the Equity Interests of any Person owning such assets), or repairs, additions or improvements to such assets, together with any Attributable Debt
Incurred pursuant to this clause (12) and any Refinancing Indebtedness Incurred to Refinance such Indebtedness, in an aggregate principal amount which, when added together with the amount of Attributable Debt and Indebtedness Incurred pursuant
to this clause (12) and then outstanding, does not exceed $15,000,000; 
  

 43 








 (13) Indebtedness arising from agreements of the Company or a Restricted
Subsidiary providing for indemnification, adjustment of purchase price, earn outs, Guarantees or similar obligations, in each case, Incurred or assumed in connection with the disposition of any business, assets or a Subsidiary, other than Guarantees
of Indebtedness Incurred or assumed by any Person acquiring all or any portion of such business, assets or Subsidiary, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed the gross proceeds actually received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary,
as applicable, in connection with such disposition; and 
 (14) Indebtedness of the Company or the Subsidiary
Guarantors in an aggregate amount which, when taken together with all other Indebtedness of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors outstanding on the date of such Incurrence (other than Coverage Indebtedness and Permitted Indebtedness Incurred
pursuant to clauses (1) through (13) above) does not exceed $5,000,000. 
 (c) For purposes of determining compliance
with this Section 4.03: 
 (1) any Indebtedness outstanding under letters of credit, surety bonds or similar
arrangements on the Issue Date will be treated as L/C Indebtedness Incurred on the Issue Date under Section 4.03(b)(2); 

(2) in the event that an item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of more than one of the types of
Indebtedness described in clauses (1) through (13) of Section 4.03(b), or is entitled to be Incurred pursuant to Section 4.03(a), the Company, in its sole discretion, shall classify (and may later reclassify) such item of
Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) at the time of Incurrence (and in the case of a reclassification, only to the extent the reclassified item could be Incurred pursuant to the criteria at the time of such reclassification) and shall only be
required to include the amount and type of such Indebtedness in one of the above clauses; provided, however, that no Credit Facility Indebtedness or L/C Indebtedness may be reclassified; and 

(3) the Company shall be entitled to divide and classify an item of Indebtedness in more than one of the types of
Indebtedness described above. 
 (d) For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar restriction on the Incurrence
of Indebtedness where the Indebtedness Incurred is denominated in a different currency, the amount of such Indebtedness shall be the U.S. Dollar Equivalent, determined on the date of the Incurrence of such Indebtedness; provided,
however, that if any such Indebtedness denominated in a different currency is subject to a Currency Agreement with respect to U.S. dollars, covering all principal, premium, if any, and interest payable on such Indebtedness, the amount of such
Indebtedness expressed in U.S. dollars shall be as provided in such Currency Agreement. The principal amount of any Refinancing Indebtedness Incurred in the same currency as 

 

 44 








 
the Indebtedness being Refinanced shall be the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the Indebtedness Refinanced, except to the extent that (1) such U.S. Dollar Equivalent was determined based
on a Currency Agreement, in which case the Refinancing Indebtedness shall be determined in accordance with the preceding sentence and (2) the principal amount of the Refinancing Indebtedness exceeds the principal amount of the Indebtedness
being Refinanced, in which case the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of such excess shall be determined on the date such Refinancing Indebtedness is Incurred. 

SECTION 4.04. Limitation on Restricted Payments. (a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary,
directly or indirectly, to make a Restricted Payment if at the time the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary makes such Restricted Payment: 

(1) a Default shall have occurred and be continuing (or would result therefrom); 

(2) immediately after giving effect to such Restricted Payment on a pro forma basis, the Company would not
be entitled to Incur an additional $1.00 of Coverage Indebtedness pursuant to Section 4.03(a); or 
 (3) the
aggregate amount of such Restricted Payment and all other Restricted Payments since the Issue Date (excluding Restricted Payments permitted by clauses (b)(1), (2), (4), (5), (6) and (8)) would exceed the sum of (without duplication):

 (A) 50% of the Consolidated Net Income accrued during the period (treated as one accounting period) from the
beginning of the fiscal quarter immediately following the fiscal quarter during which the Issue Date occurs to the end of the most recent fiscal quarter ending at least 45 days prior to the date of such Restricted Payment (or, in case such
Consolidated Net Income shall be a deficit, minus 100% of such deficit); plus 
 (B) 100% of the aggregate
Net Cash Proceeds and the Fair Market Value of marketable securities or other property received by the Company from the issuance or sale of its Qualified Equity Interests subsequent to the Issue Date and 100% of any cash (or the Fair Market Value of
any Cash Equivalents) consisting of a capital contribution received by the Company from its stockholders subsequent to the Issue Date; plus 

(C) the amount by which Indebtedness of the Company is reduced upon the conversion or exchange subsequent to the Issue
Date of any Indebtedness of the Company convertible or exchangeable for Qualified Equity Interests of the Company (less the amount of any cash, or the Fair Market Value of any other property, distributed by the Company upon such conversion or
exchange); provided, however, that 
  

 45 








 
the foregoing amount shall not exceed the Net Cash Proceeds received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary from the sale of such Indebtedness (excluding Net Cash Proceeds from sales to a
Subsidiary of the Company or to an employee stock ownership plan or a trust established by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for the benefit of their employees); plus 

(D) an amount equal to the sum of (x) the net reduction in the Investments (other than Permitted Investments) made by
the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in any Person resulting from repurchases, repayments or redemptions of such Investments by such Person, proceeds realized on the sale of such Investment and proceeds representing the return of capital
(excluding dividends and distributions), in each case received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, and (y) to the extent such Person is an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the portion (proportionate to the Company’s equity interest in
such Subsidiary) of the Fair Market Value of the net assets of such Unrestricted Subsidiary at the time such Unrestricted Subsidiary is designated a Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that the foregoing sum shall not exceed, in
the case of any such Person or Unrestricted Subsidiary, the amount of Investments (excluding Permitted Investments) previously made (and treated as a Restricted Payment) by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in such Person or Unrestricted
Subsidiary. 
 (b) The provisions of Section 4.04(a) shall not prohibit: 

(1) any Restricted Payment made out of the Net Cash Proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale of, or made by exchange
for, Qualified Equity Interests of the Company or a substantially concurrent cash capital contribution received by the Company from its stockholders; provided, however, that the Net Cash Proceeds from such sale or such cash
capital contribution (to the extent so used for such Restricted Payment) shall be excluded from the calculation of amounts under Section 4.04(a)(3)(B); 

(2) any purchase, repurchase, redemption, defeasance or other acquisition or retirement for value of Subordinated
Obligations of the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor made by exchange for, or out of the proceeds of the substantially concurrent Incurrence of, Indebtedness of such Person which is permitted to be Incurred pursuant to Section 4.03; 

(3) the payment of any dividend or redemption of any Capital Stock or Subordinated Obligations within 60 days after
the date of declaration thereof or call for redemption, if at such date of declaration or call for redemption such payment or redemption was permitted by the provisions of Section 4.04(a) (the declaration of such payment shall be deemed a
Restricted Payment under Section 4.04(a) as of the date of declaration, and the payment itself shall be deemed to 

 

 46 








 
have been paid on such date of declaration and will not also be deemed a Restricted Payment under Section 4.04(a)) (it being understood that any Restricted Payment made in reliance on this
clause (3) shall reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments pursuant to Section 4.04(a)(3) only once); 

(4) the declaration and payments of cash dividends or cash distributions on Disqualified Stock issued pursuant to
Section 4.03; provided, however, that, at the time of payment of such dividend or distribution, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing (or result therefrom); 

(5) repurchases of Equity Interests deemed to occur upon exercise of stock options if such Equity Interests represents a
portion of the exercise price of such options; 
 (6) cash payments in lieu of the issuance of fractional shares
in connection with the exercise of warrants, options or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for Equity Interests of the Company; provided, however, that any such cash payment shall not be for the purpose of evading the
limitation of this Section 4.04 (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company); 

(7) in the event of a Change of Control or an Asset Disposition, and if no Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
the payment, purchase, redemption, defeasance or other acquisition or retirement of Subordinated Obligations of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor, in each case, at a purchase price not greater than 101% of the principal amount of such
Subordinated Obligations in the case of a Change of Control and 100% in the case of an Asset Disposition, in each case plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided, however, that prior to such payment, purchase, redemption,
defeasance or other acquisition or retirement, the Company (or a third party to the extent permitted by this Indenture) has made a Change of Control Offer or an offer to purchase Securities pursuant to Section 4.06, as applicable, with respect
to the Securities as a result of such Change of Control or Asset Disposition, as applicable, and has repurchased all Securities validly tendered and not withdrawn in connection with such Change of Control Offer or an offer to purchase Securities
pursuant to Section 4.06; 
 (8) payments of intercompany subordinated Indebtedness, the Incurrence of which
was permitted under Section 4.03(b)(3); provided, however, that no Default has occurred and is continuing or would otherwise result therefrom; 

(9) the payment of any cash dividends on or in respect of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock in an aggregate amount not
to exceed $500,000 in any calendar year; provided, however, that no Default has occurred and is continuing or would otherwise result therefrom; 
  

 47

referred to in Section 4.05(1)(A) or (B) or this clause (C); provided, however, that the encumbrances and restrictions with respect to such Restricted Subsidiary contained in any such refinancing agreement or amendment are,
as determined by an Officer in good faith, not materially less favorable to the Holders than encumbrances and restrictions with respect to such Restricted Subsidiary contained in such predecessor agreements; and 

(D) any encumbrance or restriction with respect to a Restricted Subsidiary imposed pursuant to an agreement entered into
for the sale or disposition of all or substantially all the Equity Interests or assets of such Restricted Subsidiary pending the closing of such sale or disposition;

interests to the extent such provisions restrict the transfer of the lease or the property leased thereunder;

property purchased or leased. 
 SECTION 4.06. Limitation on Sales of Assets and Subsidiary Stock. (a) The Company
shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, consummate any Asset Disposition unless: 

(1) the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary receives consideration at the time of such Asset Disposition at least equal
to the Fair Market Value (including as to the value of all non-cash consideration), of the shares and assets subject to such Asset Disposition; and 

(2) at least 75% of the consideration thereof received by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of cash
or Cash Equivalents; 
 (3) in the case of an Asset Disposition of Collateral, the consideration from such Asset
Disposition is pledged as Collateral to secure the Securities; and 
 (4) an amount equal to 100% of the Net
Available Cash from such Asset Disposition is applied by the Company (or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) at its option to any one or more of the following uses: 

(A) to the extent the Company elects, within 365 days after the receipt of Net Available Cash, 

 

	 	(i)	to reduce the outstanding principal amount of Credit Facility Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to Section 4.03(b)(1); 


 

	 	(ii)	 to reduce the outstanding principal amount of any other Applicable Senior Indebtedness of the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor; provided,
however, that to the extent the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary repays any such other 



 

 50 









	 	 
Applicable Senior Indebtedness, the Company shall equally and ratably reduce the principal amount of Securities outstanding, through open-market purchases (to the extent such purchases are at or
above 100% of the principal amount thereof) or through redemption, or shall offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 4.06(b)) to all Holders to purchase their Securities at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued
but unpaid interest, if any, thereon up to a principal amount which, if the offer were accepted, would result in such reduction; 


  

	 	(iii)	in the case of an Asset Disposition by a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Subsidiary Guarantor or consisting of Equity Interests of a Restricted Subsidiary that is
not a Subsidiary Guarantor, Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Subsidiary Guarantor; or 

  

	 	(iv)	in the case of an Asset Disposition consisting of property or assets that are not Collateral, to reduce the outstanding principal amount of any other Indebtedness of
the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor, 

 in each case other than Indebtedness owed to the Company
or an Affiliate of the Company; 
 (B) to the extent the Company elects, to acquire Additional Assets within 365
days of the receipt of such Net Available Cash; provided, however, that to the extent the assets subject to such Asset Disposition were Collateral, such newly acquired assets shall also be Collateral; and 

(C) to the extent the Company elects, to make an offer to the Holders (and to holders of other Applicable Senior
Indebtedness of the Company or of a Subsidiary Guarantor designated by the Company) to purchase Securities (and such other Applicable Senior Indebtedness of the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor) pursuant to and subject to the conditions contained
in this Indenture. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.06(a), the Company and the Restricted
Subsidiaries shall not be required to apply any Net Available Cash in accordance with this Section 4.06(a) except to the extent that the aggregate Net Available Cash from all Asset Dispositions which is not applied in accordance with this
Section 4.06(a) exceeds $5,000,000. Pending application of Net Available Cash pursuant to this Section 4.06(a), such Net Available Cash shall be held in cash or invested in Cash Equivalents. 

 

 51 








 For the purposes of this Section 4.06(a), the following are deemed to be cash or Cash
Equivalents: 
 (1) the assumption or discharge of Applicable Senior Indebtedness of the Company (other than
obligations in respect of Disqualified Stock of the Company) or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than obligations in respect of Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock of a Subsidiary Guarantor) and the release of the Company or such Restricted
Subsidiary from all liability on such Applicable Senior Indebtedness in connection with such Asset Disposition; 

(2) securities, notes or other obligations received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary from the transferee that
are converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash within 365 days of the consummation of the Asset Disposition, to the extent of the cash received in such conversion; and 

(3) any Designated Non-cash Consideration received by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in such Asset
Disposition having an aggregate Fair Market Value, taken together with all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (3) that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed an amount equal to $10,000,000 at the time
of the receipt of such Designated Non-cash Consideration (with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Non-cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value). 

(b) In the event of an Asset Disposition that results in the purchase of Securities (and other Applicable Senior Indebtedness of the
Company or of a Subsidiary Guarantor) pursuant to Section 4.06(a)(4)(C), the Company shall purchase Securities tendered pursuant to an offer by the Company for the Securities (and such other Applicable Senior Indebtedness of the Company or of a
Subsidiary Guarantor permitted to be included in such offer) at a purchase price of 100% of their principal amount (or, in the event such other Applicable Senior Indebtedness was issued with significant original issue discount, 100% of the accreted
value thereof), without premium, plus accrued but unpaid interest (or, in respect of such other Applicable Senior Indebtedness, such lesser price, if any, as may be provided for by the terms of such other Applicable Senior Indebtedness) in
accordance with the procedures (including prorating in the event of oversubscription) set forth in this Indenture. If the aggregate purchase price of the securities tendered exceeds the Net Available Cash allotted to their purchase, the Company
shall select the securities to be purchased on a pro rata basis but in round denominations, which in the case of the Securities will be minimum denominations of $2,000 principal amount or any greater integral multiple of $1,000. The
Company shall not be required to make such an offer to purchase Securities (and other Applicable Senior Indebtedness of the Company or of a Subsidiary Guarantor) pursuant to this Section 4.06 if the Net Available Cash available therefor is less
than $10,000,000 (which lesser amount shall be carried forward for purposes of determining whether such an offer is 
  

 52 








 
required with respect to the Net Available Cash from any subsequent Asset Disposition). Upon completion of such an offer to purchase, Net Available Cash shall be deemed to be reduced by the
aggregate amount of such offer. 
 (c) The Company shall comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of
Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Securities pursuant to this Section 4.06. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict
with provisions of this Section 4.06, the Company shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.06 by virtue of its compliance with such
securities laws or regulations. 
 SECTION 4.07. Limitation on Affiliate Transactions. (a) The Company shall not, and shall
not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, enter into or permit to exist any transaction (including the purchase, sale, lease or exchange of any property, employee compensation arrangements or the rendering of any service) with, or for the benefit of,
any Affiliate of the Company (an “Affiliate Transaction”) unless: 
 (1) the terms of the Affiliate
Transaction are no less favorable to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary than those that could be obtained at the time of the Affiliate Transaction in arm’s-length dealings with a Person who is not an Affiliate; 

(2) if such Affiliate Transaction involves an amount in excess of $5,000,000, the terms of the Affiliate Transaction are
set forth in writing and a majority of the non-employee directors of the Company disinterested with respect to such Affiliate Transaction have determined in good faith that the criteria set forth in Section 4.07(a)(1) are satisfied and have
approved the relevant Affiliate Transaction as evidenced by a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company (unless the Board of Directors of the Company at the time of such Affiliate Transaction has no non-employee directors of the Company
disinterested with respect to such Affiliate Transaction, in which case clause (3) below will apply to such Affiliate Transaction); and 

(3) if such Affiliate Transaction involves an amount in excess of $10,000,000 (or if such Affiliate Transaction involves
an amount in excess of $5,000,000 and the Board of Directors of the Company at the time of such Affiliate Transaction has no non-employee directors of the Company disinterested with respect to such Affiliate Transaction), the Board of Directors of
the Company shall have received a written opinion from an Independent Qualified Party to the effect that such Affiliate Transaction is fair, from a financial standpoint, to the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries or is not materially less
favorable to the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries than could reasonably be expected to be obtained at the time in an arm’s-length transaction with a Person who was not an Affiliate. 

 

 53 








 (b) The provisions of Section 4.07(a) shall not prohibit: 

(1) any Investment (other than a Permitted Investment) or other Restricted Payment, in each case permitted to be made
pursuant to Section 4.04; 
 (2) any issuance of securities, or other payments, awards or grants in cash,
securities or otherwise pursuant to, or the funding of, employment arrangements, stock options and stock ownership plans approved by the Board of Directors of the Company; 

(3) loans or advances to employees made in the ordinary course of business for bona fide business purposes and consistent
with past practices of the Company or the Restricted Subsidiaries; 
 (4) the payment of reasonable fees to
directors of the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries who are not employees of the Company or the Restricted Subsidiaries; 

(5) any transaction with the Company, a Restricted Subsidiary or joint venture or similar entity which would constitute an
Affiliate Transaction solely because the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary owns an equity interest in or otherwise controls such Restricted Subsidiary, joint venture or similar entity; 

(6) the issuance or sale of any Qualified Equity Interests of the Company; 

(7) any agreement as in effect on the Issue Date and described in the Offering Circular or any renewals or extensions of
any such agreement (so long as such renewals or extensions are not less favorable to the Company or the Restricted Subsidiaries) and the transactions evidenced thereby; and 

(8) entering into and performing under indemnification arrangements or agreements in the ordinary course of business for
the benefit of former, current or future directors or officers of the Company or any or its Restricted Subsidiaries. 
 SECTION
4.08. Limitation on Line of Business. The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary, to engage in any business other than a Related Business. 

SECTION 4.09. Change of Control. (a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each Holder shall have the right to require
that the Company repurchase such Holder’s Securities at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof on the date of purchase plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase (subject to the right of
Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date). 
  

 54 








 (b) Subject to compliance with the provisions of Section 4.09(c), within 30 days
following any Change of Control, the Company shall mail a notice to each Holder with a copy to the Trustee (the “Change of Control Offer”) stating: 

(1) that a Change of Control has occurred and that such Holder has the right to require the Company to purchase such
Holder’s Securities at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof on the date of purchase, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant
record date to receive interest on the relevant interest payment date); 
 (2) the circumstances and relevant
facts regarding such Change of Control (including information to the extent available, with respect to pro forma historical income, cash flow and capitalization, in each case after giving effect to such Change of Control); 

(3) the purchase date (which shall be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice
is mailed); and 
 (4) the instructions, as determined by the Company, consistent with this Section, that a
Holder must follow in order to have its Securities purchased. 
 (c) The Company shall not be required to make a Change of
Control Offer following a Change of Control if (1) 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 Company and purchases all Securities validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer, (2) notice of redemption has been given pursuant to this Indenture as described above in Section 3.01, unless and until
there is a default in the payment of the applicable redemption price or (3) in connection with or in contemplation of any Change of Control for which a definitive agreement is in place, the Company or a third party has made an offer to purchase
(an “Alternate Offer”) any and all Securities validly and properly tendered at a cash price equal to or higher than the Change of Control payment (as described above) and has purchased all Securities validly and properly tendered and not
withdrawn in accordance with the terms of the Alternate Offer; provided, however, that the terms of such Alternate Offer shall not require the Holders to irrevocably tender the Securities and such Alternate Offer shall not close until
the Change of Control is actually consummated. 
 (d) The Company shall comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements
of Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Securities as a result of a Change of Control. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations
conflict with the provisions of this Section 4.09, the Company shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.09 by virtue of its compliance
with such securities laws or regulations. 
  

 55 








 SECTION 4.10. Limitation on Liens. The Company shall not, and shall not permit
any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, create, Incur or suffer to exist or become effective any Lien of any kind upon any of their assets, now owned or hereafter acquired, other than: 

(i) in the case of any asset that does not constitute Collateral, Permitted Liens; provided, however, that any Lien on
such asset shall be permitted notwithstanding that it is not a Permitted Lien if all payments due under this Indenture and the Securities are secured on an equal and ratable basis with the obligations so secured until such time as such obligations
are no longer secured by a Lien; and 
 (ii) in the case of any asset that constitutes Collateral, Permitted
Collateral Liens. 
 In the case of the clause (i) above, if the obligations so secured are expressly subordinated by their
terms to the Securities, the Lien securing such obligations shall also be so subordinated by its terms at least to the same extent. 

SECTION 4.11. Limitation on Sale/Leaseback Transactions. (a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted
Subsidiary to, enter into any Sale/Leaseback Transaction with respect to any property unless: 
 (1) the Company
or such Restricted Subsidiary would be entitled to (A) Incur Indebtedness in an amount equal to the Attributable Debt with respect to such Sale/Leaseback Transaction pursuant to Section 4.03 and (B) create a Lien on such property
securing such Indebtedness without equally and ratably securing the Securities pursuant to Section 4.10; 

(2) the net proceeds received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in connection with such Sale/Leaseback
Transaction are at least equal to the Fair Market Value of such property; and 
 (3) the Company applies the
proceeds of such transaction in compliance with Section 4.06, to the extent applicable. 
 SECTION 4.12. Future
Subsidiary Guarantors. (a) The Company shall cause each Domestic Subsidiary to (1) execute and deliver to the Trustee a Guarantee Agreement pursuant to which such Subsidiary shall Guarantee payment of the Securities and all other
monetary obligations under the Indenture on the same terms and conditions as those set forth in this Indenture and applicable to the other Subsidiary Guarantors and (2) execute and deliver such documentation with respect to such collateral as
shall be necessary to provide for Liens on such Subsidiary’s assets constituting Collateral to secure such Subsidiary Guarantee on the terms set forth in Article 11. 

SECTION 4.13. Compliance Certificate. The Company shall deliver to the Trustee within 120 days after the end of each fiscal
year of the Company an Officers’ Certificate stating whether or not to the best of the knowledge of the signers thereof a Default occurred during such period. If a Default shall have occurred during such period, the certificate shall describe

 Article 5 

Successor Company 

SECTION 5.01. When Company May Merge or Transfer Assets. (a) The Company shall not consolidate with or merge with or into, or
convey, transfer or lease, in one transaction or a series of transactions, directly or indirectly, all or substantially all its assets to, any Person, unless: 

(1)(x) the Company shall be the surviving corporation or (y) the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (the
“Successor Company”) shall be a corporation 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 Company) shall expressly assume, by an
indenture supplemental thereto, executed and delivered to the Trustee, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, all the Obligations of the Company under the Securities and this Indenture; 

(2) immediately after giving pro forma effect to such transaction (and treating any Indebtedness which
becomes an Obligation of the Successor Company or any Subsidiary as a result of such transaction as having been Incurred by such Successor Company or such Subsidiary at the time of such transaction), no Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

 (3) immediately after giving pro forma effect to such transaction, the Successor Company would
have been able to Incur an additional $1.00 of Coverage Indebtedness pursuant to Section 4.03(a); and 
 (4)
the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger or transfer and such supplemental indenture (if any) comply with this Indenture; 

provided, however, that clause (3) shall not be applicable to (A) a Restricted Subsidiary consolidating with, merging into or
transferring all or part of its properties and assets to the Company or (B) the Company merging with an Affiliate of the Company solely for the purpose and with the sole effect of reincorporating the Company in another jurisdiction. 

For purposes of this Section 5.01, 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 the Company, which properties and assets, if held by the Company instead of such Subsidiaries, would constitute all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company on a
consolidated basis, shall be deemed to be the transfer of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company. 
  

 57 








 The Successor Company (if not the Company) shall be the successor to the Company and shall
succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under this Indenture, and the predecessor Company, except in the case of a lease, shall be released from the obligation to pay the principal of and interest
on the Securities. 
 (b) The Company shall not permit any Subsidiary Guarantor to consolidate with or merge with or into, or
convey, transfer or lease, in one transaction or a series of transactions, all or substantially all of its assets to any Person unless immediately after giving effect to such transaction or transactions on a pro forma basis (and
treating any Indebtedness which becomes an obligation of the resulting, surviving or transferee Person as a result of such transaction as having been issued by such Person at the time of such transaction), no Default shall have occurred and be
continuing. 
 Article 6 

Defaults and Remedies 

SECTION 6.01. Events of Default. An “Event of Default” occurs if: 

(1) the Company defaults in the payment of interest on the Securities when due, continued for 30 days; 

(2) the Company defaults in the payment of principal of any Security when due at its Stated Maturity, upon optional
redemption, upon required purchase, upon declaration of acceleration or otherwise; 
 (3) the failure by the
Company to comply with its obligations under Section 5.01; 
 (4) the failure by the Company to comply for
45 days after notice with any of its obligations in Section 4.03, 4.04, 4.05, 4.06, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11 or 4.12 (other than a failure to purchase Securities when required under Section 4.06 or 4.09); 

(5) the failure by the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor to comply for 60 days after notice with any with its other
agreements contained in the Securities or this Indenture; 
 (6) Indebtedness of the Company or any Restricted
Subsidiary is not paid within any applicable grace period after final maturity or is accelerated by the holders thereof because of a default and the total amount of such Indebtedness unpaid or accelerated exceeds $10,000,000; 

(7) the Company or any Significant Subsidiary pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law: 

(A) commences a voluntary case; 
  

 58 








 (B) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an
involuntary case; 
 (C) consents to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for any substantial part of its
property; or 
 (D) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; 

or takes any comparable action under any foreign laws relating to insolvency; 

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

(A) is for relief against the Company or any Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case; 

(B) appoints a Custodian of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary or for any substantial part of its property; or

 (C) orders the winding up or liquidation of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary; 

or any similar relief is granted under any foreign laws and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive
days; 
 (9) any judgment or decree for the payment of money in excess of $10,000,000 is entered against the
Company or any Significant Subsidiary, remains outstanding for a period of 60 consecutive days following such judgment and is not discharged, waived or stayed; 

(10) any Subsidiary Guarantee ceases to be in full force and effect (other than in accordance with the terms of such
Subsidiary Guarantee) or any Subsidiary Guarantor denies or disaffirms its obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee; or 

(11)(1) a default by the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor in the performance of the Security Documents which
adversely affects the enforceability, validity, perfection or priority of the Collateral Agent’s Lien on the Collateral in any material respect, (2) repudiation or disaffirmation by the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor of any of its
material obligations under the Security Documents or (3) the determination in a judicial proceeding that any one or more material provisions of the Security Documents are unenforceable or invalid against the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor
for any reason except to the extent any such unenforceability or invalidity is caused by the failure of the Collateral Agent to make filings, renewals and continuations (or other equivalent filings) which the Company has indicated in the perfection
certificate are required to be made or the failure of the Collateral Agent to maintain possession of certificates actually delivered to it representing securities pledged under the Security Documents. 

 

 59 








 The foregoing will constitute Events of Default whatever the reason for any such Event of
Default and whether it is voluntary or involuntary or is effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body. 

The term “Bankruptcy Law” means Title 11, United States Code, or any similar Federal or state law for the relief of
debtors. The term “Custodian” means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator, custodian or similar official under any Bankruptcy Law. 

A Default under clauses (4) and (5) will not constitute an Event of Default until the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in
principal amount of the outstanding Securities notify the Company of the Default and the Company does not cure such Default within the time specified after receipt of such notice. Such notice must specify the Default, demand that it be remedied and
state that such notice is a “Notice of Default”. 
 If a Default occurs, is continuing and is known to the Trustee,
the Trustee must mail to each Holder of the Securities notice of the Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default in the payment of principal of or interest on any Security, the Trustee may withhold notice if and so long
as a committee of its Trust Officers in good faith determines that withholding notice is not opposed to the interest of the Holders. In addition, the Company is required to deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, a
certificate indicating whether the signers thereof know of any Default that occurred during the previous year. The Company is required to deliver to the Trustee, within 30 days after the occurrence thereof, written notice of any event which would
constitute certain Defaults, their status and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take in respect thereof. 

SECTION 6.02. Acceleration. If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(7) or
(8) with respect to the Company) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee by notice to the Company, or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Securities by notice to the Company and the Trustee, may declare the principal of and
accrued but unpaid interest on all the Securities to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal and interest shall be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(7) or (8) with respect to
the Company occurs and is continuing, the principal of and interest on all the Securities shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders. In the event of an
acceleration that occurs prior to October 15, 2014, an amount will also become due and payable as of the day immediately preceding the day that the Securities were accelerated equal to the premium that would then be payable by the Company if
the Company elected to redeem the Securities at its option on such date pursuant to the provisions described in Section 6 of the Securities. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities by notice

  

 60 








 
to the Trustee may rescind an acceleration and its consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default have been cured or waived
except nonpayment of principal or interest that has become due solely because of such declaration of acceleration. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto. 

SECTION 6.03. Other Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to
collect the payment of principal of or interest on the Securities or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Securities or this Indenture. 

The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Securities 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. No remedy is
exclusive of any other remedy. All available remedies are cumulative. 
 SECTION 6.04. Waiver of Past Defaults. The
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities by notice to the Trustee may waive an existing Default and its consequences except (a) a Default in the payment of the principal of or interest on a Security (b) a Default arising
from the failure to redeem or purchase any Security when required pursuant to this Indenture or (c) a Default in respect of a provision that under Section 9.02 cannot be amended without the consent of each Holder affected. When a Default
is waived, it is deemed cured, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any consequent right. 

SECTION 6.05. Control by Majority. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities may direct the time, method and
place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or, subject to
Section 7.01, that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders or would involve the Trustee in personal liability; provided, however, that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that
is not inconsistent with such direction. Prior to taking any action hereunder, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification reasonably satisfactory to it against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action. 

SECTION 6.06. Limitation on Suits. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium (if any) or interest when
due, no Holder may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Securities unless: 
 (1) the Holder
gives to the Trustee written notice stating that an Event of Default is continuing; 
  

 61 








 (2) the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Securities make a
written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy; 
 (3) such Holder or Holders offer to the Trustee
reasonable security or indemnity against any loss, liability or expense; 
 (4) the Trustee does not comply with
the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity; and 
 (5) the
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with the request during such 60-day period. 

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

 SECTION 6.07. Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right
of any Holder to receive payment of principal of and interest on the Securities held by such Holder, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Securities, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such
respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder. 
 SECTION 6.08. Collection Suit by
Trustee. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(1) or (2) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company for the whole amount then due and
owing (together with interest on any unpaid interest to the extent lawful) and the amounts provided for in Section 7.07. 

SECTION 6.09. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be
necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company, its creditors or its property and, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, may vote on behalf
of the Holders in any election of a trustee in bankruptcy or other Person performing similar functions, and any Custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the
Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel, and any other
amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07. 
 SECTION 6.10. Priorities. If the Trustee collects any money or
property pursuant to this Article 6, it shall pay out the money or property in the following order: 
 FIRST: to
the Trustee for amounts due under Section 7.07 and to the Collateral Agent for amounts due under the Collateral Agreement; 
  

 62 








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

THIRD: to the Company. 

The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section 6.10. At least 15 days
before such record date, the Company shall mail to each Holder and the Trustee a notice that states the record date, the payment date and amount to be paid. 

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 Trustee, a court of competent jurisdiction 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, 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 does not
apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 6.07 or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities. 

SECTION 6.12. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. The Company (to the extent it may lawfully do so) shall not at any time insist
upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the
Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and shall not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the
execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted. 
 Article 7 

Trustee 

SECTION 7.01. Duties of Trustee. (a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise the
rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent Person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such Person’s own affairs. 

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

(1) the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and
no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and 
  

 63 








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

(c) The Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own wilful
misconduct, except that: 
 (1) this paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section;

 (2) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Trust Officer unless it
is proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and 
 (3) the Trustee shall not be
liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.05. 

(a) Every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of
this Section 7.01. 
 (b) The Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Trustee
may agree in writing with the Company. 
 (c) Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except
to the extent required by law. 
 (d) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds
or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds to believe that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against
such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. 
 (e) Every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or
affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section and to the provisions of the TIA. 

SECTION 7.02. Rights of Trustee. (a) The Trustee may rely on any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been
signed or presented by the proper person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document. 
 (b)
Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officers’ Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on the Officers’
Certificate or Opinion of Counsel. 
  

 64 








 (c) The Trustee may act through agents and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or
negligence of any agent appointed with due care. 
 (d) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take
in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers; provided, however, that the Trustee’s conduct does not constitute wilful misconduct or negligence. 

(e) The Trustee may consult with counsel, and the advice or opinion of counsel with respect to legal matters relating to this Indenture
and the Securities shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect to any action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel. 

(f) Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Indenture, any demand, request, direction or notice from the Company shall be
sufficiently evidenced by a written order signed by one Officer of the Company. 
 (g) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have
notice of any Default or Event of Default unless a Trust Officer has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a default is received by the Trustee at the corporate trust office of the Trustee, and such
notice references the Securities and this Indenture. 
 (h) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given
to the Trustee, including its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities (including that of Collateral Agent) hereunder (and under the Security Documents and any Intercreditor
Agreement), and each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder or thereunder. 
 (i) In no event shall the
Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, 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. 
 (j) The Trustee may request that the Company deliver a certificate setting forth
the names of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture. 

(k) In no event shall the Trustee 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 strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and
interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services; it being understood that the Trustee shall use reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to
resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances. 
  

 65 








 SECTION 7.03. Individual Rights of Trustee. The Trustee in its individual or any
other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Paying Agent, Registrar, co-registrar or co-paying agent may do the
same with like rights. However, the Trustee must comply with Sections 7.10 and 7.11. 
 SECTION 7.04. Trustee’s
Disclaimer. The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Securities, it shall not be accountable for the Company’s use of the proceeds from the Securities, and
it shall not be responsible for any statement of the Company in this Indenture or in any document issued in connection with the sale of the Securities or in the Securities other than the Trustee’s certificate of authentication. 

SECTION 7.05. Notice of Defaults. If a Default occurs, is continuing and is known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail to each
Holder notice of the Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default in the payment of principal of or interest on any Security (including payments pursuant to the mandatory redemption provisions of such Security, if any),
the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Trust Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is not opposed to the interests of the Holders. 

SECTION 7.06. Reports by Trustee to Holders. As promptly as practicable after each October 1 beginning with the
October 1 following the Issue Date, and in any event prior to December 1 in each year, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder a brief report dated as of October 1 that complies with TIA § 313(a). The Trustee also shall comply
with TIA § 313(b). 
 A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to Holders shall be filed with the SEC and each
stock exchange (if any) on which the Securities are listed. The Company agrees to notify promptly the Trustee whenever the Securities become listed on any stock exchange and of any delisting thereof. 

As promptly as practicable, upon the Company’s request, the Trustee shall mail to each Securityholder any report received by the
Trustee from the Company pursuant to Section 4.02. 
 SECTION 7.07. Compensation and Indemnity. The Company shall
pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation for its services as shall be agreed to from time to time between the Trustee and the Company. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an
express trust. The Company shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, in addition to the 

 

 66 








 
compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee’s agents, counsel, accountants and experts. The
Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall jointly and severally indemnify the Trustee against any and all loss, liability or expense (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by it in connection with the administration of this trust and the
performance of its duties hereunder. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder. The Company
shall defend the claim and the Trustee may have separate counsel and the Company shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel. The Company need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Trustee
through the Trustee’s own wilful misconduct, negligence or bad faith. 
 To secure the Company’s payment obligations
in this Section 7.07, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee other than money or property held in trust to pay principal of and interest on particular Securities.

 The Company’s payment obligations pursuant to this Section shall survive the discharge of this Indenture. When the
Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 6.01(7) or (8) with respect to the Company, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under the Bankruptcy Law. 

SECTION 7.08. Replacement of Trustee. The Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the Company. The Holders of a majority in
principal amount of the Securities may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and may appoint a successor Trustee. The Company shall remove the Trustee if: 

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

(2) the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent; 

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

(4) the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting. 

If the Trustee resigns, is removed by the Company or by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities and such Holders
do not reasonably promptly appoint a successor Trustee, or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason (the Trustee in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Trustee), the Company shall promptly appoint a successor
Trustee. 
 A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the
Company. Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of
its succession to Holders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the lien provided for in Section 7.07. 

 

 67 








 If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee
resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee or the Holders of 10% in principal amount of the Securities may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 

If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10, any Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the
Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee. 
 Notwithstanding the replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section,
the Company’s obligations under Section 7.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee. 
 SECTION 7.09.
Successor Trustee by Merger. If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or
transferee corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee. 
 In case at the time such successor or
successors by merger, conversion or consolidation to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture any of the Securities shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate
of authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver such Securities so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Securities shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Securities either in the
name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Securities or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the
Trustee shall have. 
 SECTION 7.10. Eligibility; Disqualification. The Trustee shall at all times satisfy the
requirements of TIA § 310(a). The Trustee shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. The Trustee shall comply with TIA § 310(b);
provided, however, that there shall be excluded from the operation of TIA § 310(b)(1) any indenture or indentures under which other securities or certificates of interest or participation in other securities of the Company are
outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in TIA § 310(b)(1) are met. 
 SECTION 7.11.
Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company. The Trustee shall comply with TIA § 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA § 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been removed
shall be subject to TIA § 311(a) to the extent indicated. 
  

 68 








 SECTION 7.12. Limitation on Duty of Trustee in Respect of Collateral; Indemnification.
 
 (a) Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof, the Trustee, in its capacity as trustee, shall have no
duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee or any income thereon or as to preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto and the Trustee, in its
capacity as trustee, shall not be responsible for filing any financing or continuation statements or recording any documents or instruments in any public office at any time or times or otherwise perfecting or maintaining the perfection of any
security interest in the Collateral. The Trustee, in its capacity as trustee, shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that
which it accords its own property and shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or diminution in the value of any of the Collateral, by reason of the act or omission of any carrier, forwarding agency or other agent or bailee selected by the
Trustee, in its capacity as trustee, in good faith. 
 (b) The Trustee, in its capacity as trustee, shall not be responsible for
the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its
part hereunder, except to the extent such action or omission constitutes gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee, in its capacity as trustee, for the validity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any agreement or
assignment contained therein, for the validity of the title of the Company to the Collateral, for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the
Collateral. The Trustee, in its capacity as trustee, shall have no duty to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms of this Indenture, the Collateral Agency Agreement or the Security Documents by the Company or
the Collateral Agent. 
 Article 8 

Discharge of Indenture; Defeasance 

SECTION 8.01. Discharge of Liability on Securities; Defeasance. (a) When (1) the Company delivers to the Trustee
all outstanding Securities (other than Securities replaced pursuant to Section 2.07) for cancellation or (2) all outstanding Securities have become due and payable, whether at maturity or on a redemption date as a result of the mailing of
a notice of redemption pursuant to Article 3 hereof and the Company irrevocably deposits or causes to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Securityholders, cash in U.S. dollars, U.S. Government
Obligations, or a combination thereof, in amounts as will be sufficient, without consideration of any reinvestment of interest to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Securities not previously delivered to the Trustee for cancellation
(other than Securities replaced pursuant to Section 2.07) (including principal of, premium and interest, if any, on, the Securities to the date of maturity or redemption), and if in either

  

 69 








 
case the Company pays all other sums payable hereunder by the Company, then this Indenture shall, subject to Section 8.01(c), cease to be of further effect. The Trustee shall acknowledge
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture on demand of the Company accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel and at the cost and expense of the Company. 

(b) Subject to Sections 8.01(c) and 8.02, the Company at any time may terminate (1) all of the Company’s and each Subsidiary
Guarantor’s obligations under the Securities, the Subsidiary Guarantees and this Indenture (“legal defeasance option”) or (2) their obligations under Sections 4.02, 4.03, 4.04, 4.05, 4.06, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11 and
4.12 and the operation of Sections 6.01(4), 6.01(5), 6.01(6), 6.01(7), 6.01(8), 6.01(9) and 6.01(11) (but, in the case of Sections 6.01(7) and (8), with respect only to Significant Subsidiaries) and the limitations contained in
Section 5.01(a)(3) (“covenant defeasance option”). The Company may exercise its legal defeasance option notwithstanding its prior exercise of its covenant defeasance option. 

If the Company exercises its legal defeasance option, payment of the Securities may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default
with respect thereto. If the Company exercises its covenant defeasance option, payment of the Securities may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in Sections 6.01(4), 6.01(5), 6.01(6), 6.01(7), 6.01(8), 6.01(9) or
6.01(11) (but, in the case of Sections 6.01(7) and (8), with respect only to Significant Subsidiaries) or because of the failure of the Company to comply with Section 5.01(a)(3). If the Company exercises its legal defeasance option or its
covenant defeasance option, each Subsidiary Guarantor, if any, shall be released from all its obligations with respect to its Subsidiary Guarantee and the Security Documents. 

Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein and upon request of the Company, the Trustee shall acknowledge in writing the
discharge of those obligations that the Company terminates. 
 (c) Notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, the
Company’s obligations in Sections 2.03, 2.04, 2.05, 2.06, 2.07, 2.08, 7.07 and 7.08 and in this Article 8 shall survive until the Securities have been paid in full. Thereafter, the Company’s obligations in Sections 7.07, 8.04 and 8.05
shall survive. 
 SECTION 8.02. Conditions to Defeasance. The Company may exercise its legal defeasance option or its
covenant defeasance option only if: 
 (1) the Company irrevocably deposits in trust with the Trustee money
or U.S. Government Obligations for the payment of principal of and interest on the Securities to maturity or redemption, as the case may be; 

(2) the Company delivers to the Trustee a certificate from a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm
of independent public accountants expressing their opinion that the payments of principal and interest when due, plus any deposited money will provide cash at such times and in such amounts as will be sufficient to pay principal and interest when
due on all the Securities to maturity or redemption, as the case may be; 
  

 70 








 (3) the Company delivers to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel (which opinion
may be subject to customary assumptions and exceptions) to the effect that after the 91st day following the deposit, the trust funds will not be subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting
creditors’ rights generally; 
 (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 Indebtedness), and the granting of Liens to secure such
borrowings); 
 (5) the deposit does not constitute a default under any other material agreement (other than this
Indenture and the agreements governing any other Indebtedness being defeased, discharged or replaced) binding on the Company; 

(6) the Company delivers to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the trust resulting from the deposit does
not constitute, nor is qualified as, a regulated investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940; 

(7) in the case of the legal defeasance option, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel
stating that (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (B) since the Issue Date there has been a change in the applicable Federal income tax law, in either case to the
effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same
amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such defeasance had not occurred; 

(8) in the case of the covenant defeasance option, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel
to the effect that the Holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such covenant defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as
would have been the case if such covenant defeasance had not occurred; and 
 (9) the Company delivers to the
Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent to the defeasance and discharge of the Securities as contemplated by this Article 8 have been complied with. 

 

 71 








 Before or after a deposit, the Company may make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for
the redemption of Securities at a future date in accordance with Article 3. 
 SECTION 8.03. Application of Trust Money.
The Trustee shall hold in trust money or U.S. Government Obligations deposited with it pursuant to this Article 8. It shall apply the deposited money and the money from U.S. Government Obligations through the Paying Agent and in
accordance with this Indenture to the payment of principal of and interest on the Securities. 
 SECTION 8.04. Repayment to
Company. The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall promptly turn over to the Company upon request any excess money or securities held by them at any time. 

Subject to any applicable abandoned property law, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Company upon request any money held
by them for the payment of principal or interest that remains unclaimed for two years, and, thereafter, Holders entitled to the money must look to the Company for payment as general creditors. 

SECTION 8.05. Indemnity for Government Obligations. The Company shall pay and shall indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or
other charge imposed on or assessed against deposited U.S. Government Obligations or the principal and interest received on such U.S. Government Obligations. 

SECTION 8.06. Reinstatement. If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in
accordance with this Article 8 by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court of competent jurisdiction or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the
Company’s and each Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture, each Subsidiary Guarantee and the Securities shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article 8 until such time as the
Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this Article 8; provided, however, that, if the Company has made any payment of interest on or principal of any Securities
because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent. 

Article 9 

Amendments 

SECTION 9.01. Without Consent of Holders. The Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee may amend this Indenture, the
Securities, the Security Documents or any Intercreditor Agreement without notice to or consent of any Holder: 

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

 

 72

obligations of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor under the Securities, this Indenture, a Subsidiary Guarantee, the Security Documents or any Intercreditor Agreement, as applicable; 

(3) to provide for uncertificated Securities in addition to or in place of certificated Securities; provided,
however, that the uncertificated Securities are issued in registered form for purposes of Section 163(f) of the Code; 

(4) to add Guarantees with respect to the Securities, including any Subsidiary Guarantees; 

(5) to add to the covenants of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor for the benefit of the Holders or to surrender any

the Subsidiary Guarantees; 
 (9) to make any amendment to the provisions of this Indenture relating to the
transfer and legending of Securities; provided, however, that (a) compliance with this Indenture as so amended would not result in Securities being transferred in violation of the Securities Act or any other applicable securities
law and (b) such amendment does not materially and adversely affect the rights of Holders to transfer Securities, in each case evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel on which the Trustee may conclusively rely; 

(10) to add any additional assets to the Collateral; 

(11) to release Collateral from the Lien of the Security Documents when permitted or required by this Indenture and the
Security Documents; 
 (12) to provide for a successor trustee in accordance with the terms of this Indenture or
to otherwise comply with any requirement of this Indenture; or 
 (13) to comply with the rules of any applicable
securities depository. 
  

 73 








 After an amendment under this Section 9.01 becomes effective, the Company shall mail to
Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment. However, the failure to give such notice to all Holders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section 9.01. 

SECTION 9.02. With Consent of Holders. The Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee may amend this Indenture, the
Securities, the Security Documents or any Intercreditor Agreement with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or
exchange for the Securities) and any past default or compliance with any provisions may also be waived with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding. However, without the consent of
each Holder affected thereby, an amendment or waiver may not: 
 (1) reduce the amount of Securities whose
Holders must consent to an amendment; 
 (2) reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest on any
Security; 
 (3) reduce the principal of or change the Stated Maturity of any Security; 

(4) change the provisions applicable to the redemption of any Security contained in Article 3 hereto or
Section 6 of the Securities; 
 (5) make any Security payable in money other than that stated in the
Security; 
 (6) impair the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of and interest on such
Holder’s Securities on or after the due dates therefor or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Holder’s Securities; 

(7) make any change in the amendment provisions that require each Holder’s consent or in the waiver provisions;

 (8) make any change in the ranking or priority of any Security that would materially adversely affect the
Holders; 
 (9) release any Subsidiary Guarantee (other than in accordance with this Indenture); or 

(10)(A) modify any Security Document or any Intercreditor Agreement or the provisions in this Indenture dealing with
Security Documents in any manner that adversely changes the priority of the Liens in the Collateral or (B) release all or substantially all of the Collateral from the Liens created by the Security Documents, except in each case as specifically
provided for in this Indenture, the Security Documents and any Intercreditor Agreement. 
  

 74 








 It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 9.02 to
approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. 

After an amendment under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Company shall mail to Holders a notice briefly describing such
amendment. The failure to give such notice to all Holders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section 9.02. 

SECTION 9.03. Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. Every amendment to this Indenture or the Securities shall comply with the TIA
as then in effect. 
 SECTION 9.04. Revocation and Effect of Consents and Waivers. A consent to an amendment or a waiver
by a Holder of a Security shall bind the Holder and every subsequent Holder of that Security or portion of the Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Security, even if notation of the consent or waiver is not made on
the Security. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent or waiver as to such Holder’s Security or portion of the Security if the Trustee receives the notice of revocation before the date the amendment or waiver
becomes effective. After an amendment or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder. An amendment or waiver becomes effective upon the execution of such amendment or waiver by the Trustee. 

The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to give their
consent or take any other action described above or required or permitted to be taken pursuant to this Indenture. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the immediately preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such record date
(or their duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to give such consent or to revoke any consent previously given or to take any such action, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date. No
such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 120 days after such record date. 
 SECTION 9.05. Notation on or
Exchange of Securities. If an amendment changes the terms of a Security, the Trustee may require the Holder of the Security to deliver it to the Trustee. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation on the Security regarding the changed terms
and return it to the Holder. Alternatively, if the Company or the Trustee so determines, the Company in exchange for the Security shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Security that reflects the changed terms. Failure to make the
appropriate notation or to issue a new Security shall not affect the validity of such amendment. 
  

 75 








 SECTION 9.06. Trustee to Sign Amendments. The Trustee shall sign any amendment
authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. If it does, the Trustee may but need not sign it. In signing such amendment the Trustee shall be entitled
to receive indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it and to receive, and (subject to Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that such amendment is authorized or
permitted by this Indenture. 
 SECTION 9.07. Payment for Consent. Neither the Company nor any Affiliate of the Company
shall, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration, whether by way of interest, fee or otherwise, to any Holder for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture or
the Securities unless such consideration is offered to all Holders and is paid to all Holders that so consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement. 

Article 10 

Subsidiary Guarantees 

SECTION 10.01. Guarantees. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, jointly and severally on a
senior secured basis, to each Holder and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns (a) the full and punctual payment of principal of and interest on the Securities when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise,
and all other monetary obligations of the Company under this Indenture and the Securities and (b) the full and punctual performance within applicable grace periods of all other obligations of the Company under this Indenture and the Securities
(all the foregoing being hereinafter collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further
assent from such Subsidiary Guarantor and that such Subsidiary Guarantor will remain bound under this Article 10 notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Obligation. 

Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives presentation to, demand of, payment from and protest to the Company of any of the Guaranteed Obligations
and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment. Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives notice of any default under the Securities or the Guaranteed Obligations. The obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected by (1) the
failure of any Holder or the Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Company or any other Person (including any Subsidiary Guarantor) under this Indenture, the Securities or any other agreement or
otherwise; (2) any extension or renewal of any thereof; (3) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture, the Securities or any other agreement; (4) the release of any security
held by any Holder or the Trustee for the Guaranteed Obligations or any of them; (5) the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to exercise any right or remedy against any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations; or (6) except as set
forth in Section 10.06, any change in the ownership of such Subsidiary Guarantor. 
  

 76 








 Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee herein constitutes a
guarantee of payment, performance and compliance when due (and not a guarantee of collection) and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder or the Trustee to any security held for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations.

 Except as expressly set forth in Sections 8.01(b), 10.02 and 10.06, the obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor
hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim,
recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor herein
shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Indenture, the Securities or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification
of any thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the
risk of such Subsidiary Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of such Subsidiary Guarantor as a matter of law or equity. 

Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that its Guarantee herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be,
if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of or interest on any Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder or the Trustee upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company or otherwise. 

In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder or the Trustee has at law or in equity against
any Subsidiary Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Company to pay the principal of or interest on any Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, or to perform
or comply with any other Obligation, each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby promises to and shall, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustee, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Holders or the Trustee an amount equal to the sum of
(A) the unpaid amount of such Guaranteed Obligations, (B) accrued and unpaid interest on such Guaranteed Obligations (but only to the extent not prohibited by law) and (C) all other monetary Guaranteed Obligations of the Company to
the Holders and the Trustee. 
 Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that, as between it, on the one hand, and the Holders and the
Trustee, on the other hand, (i) the maturity of the Guaranteed Obligations hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 for the purposes of such Subsidiary Guarantor’s Subsidiary Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction
or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby, and (ii) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such Guaranteed Obligations as provided in Article 6, such Guaranteed
Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by such Subsidiary Guarantor for the purposes of this Section 10.01. 
  

 77 








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

SECTION 10.02. Limitation on Liability. Any term or provision of this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum
aggregate amount of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereunder by any Subsidiary Guarantor shall not exceed the maximum amount that can be hereby guaranteed without rendering this Indenture, as it relates to such Subsidiary Guarantor, voidable
under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally. 

SECTION 10.03. Successors and Assigns. This Article 10 shall be binding upon each Subsidiary Guarantor and its successors and
assigns and shall enure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Trustee and the Holders and, in the event of any transfer or assignment of rights by any Holder or the Trustee, the rights and privileges conferred upon that party in this
Indenture and in the Securities shall automatically extend to and be vested in such transferee or assignee, all subject to the terms and conditions of this Indenture. 

SECTION 10.04. No Waiver. Neither a failure nor a delay on the part of either the Trustee or the Holders in exercising any right,
power or privilege under this Article 10 shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any right, power or privilege. The rights, remedies and benefits of the Trustee and
the Holders herein expressly specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights, remedies or benefits which either may have under this Article 10 at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise. 

SECTION 10.05. Modification. No modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Article 10, nor the consent to any
departure by any Subsidiary Guarantor therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Trustee, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for
which given. No notice to or demand on any Subsidiary Guarantor in any case shall entitle such Subsidiary Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances. 

SECTION 10.06. Release of Subsidiary Guarantor. A Subsidiary Guarantor will be released from its obligations under this Article 10
(other than any obligation that may have arisen under Section 10.07). 
 (1) upon the sale (including any
sale pursuant to any exercise of remedies by a holder of Indebtedness of the Company or of such Subsidiary Guarantor) or other disposition (including by way of consolidation or merger) of a Subsidiary Guarantor (including the sale or disposition of
Equity Interests of a Subsidiary Guarantor) following which such Subsidiary Guarantor is no longer a Subsidiary of the Company; 
  

 78 








 (2) upon the sale or disposition of all or substantially all the assets of a
Subsidiary Guarantor; 
 (3) upon the designation of such Subsidiary Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary to
the extent permitted by this Indenture; 
 (4) upon defeasance of the Securities pursuant to Article 8; or

 (5) upon the full satisfaction of the Company’s obligations under this Indenture; 

provided, however, that in the case of clauses (1) and (2) above, (i) such sale or other disposition is made
to a Person other than the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company, (ii) such sale or disposition is otherwise permitted by this Indenture and (iii) the Company provides an Officers’ Certificate to the Trustee to the effect that the
Company will comply with its obligations under Section 4.06. 
 At the request of the Company, the Trustee shall execute and deliver an
appropriate instrument evidencing such release. 
 SECTION 10.07. Contribution. Each Subsidiary Guarantor that makes a
payment under its Subsidiary Guarantee shall be entitled upon payment in full of all Guaranteed Obligations under this Indenture to a contribution from each other Subsidiary Guarantor in an amount equal to such other Subsidiary Guarantor’s pro
rata portion of such payment based on the respective net assets of all the Subsidiary Guarantors at the time of such payment determined in accordance with GAAP. 

Article 11 

Security Documents 

SECTION 11.01. Collateral and Security Documents. (a) To secure the due and punctual payment of the obligations of the
Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors under this Indenture, the Securities and the Subsidiary Guarantees, the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Collateral Agent have entered into the Security Documents for the creation of specified security
interests and related matters. The Trustee, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby acknowledge and agree that the Collateral Agent holds the Collateral in trust for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders and the Trustee and the other
parties entitled to the benefit of the security provided under the Security Documents pursuant to the terms of the Security Documents and any Intercreditor Agreements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture, no security interest
or Lien is granted by the terms of this Indenture, the Securities or the Subsidiary Guarantees. 
  

 79 








 (b) Each Holder, by accepting a Security, agrees to all of the terms and provisions of the
Security Documents and any Intercreditor Agreements, as the same may be amended from time to time pursuant to the provisions of the Security Documents, any Intercreditor Agreements and this Indenture, and authorizes and directs the Trustee and the
Collateral Agent to perform their respective obligations and exercise their respective rights under the Security Documents and any Intercreditor Agreements in accordance therewith; provided, however, that if any provisions of the
Security Documents limit, qualify or conflict with the duties imposed by the provisions of the TIA (other than TIA §314(b) and TIA §314(d), which shall not be applicable to this Indenture unless it is qualified under the TIA), the TIA
(other than TIA § 314(b) and TIA § 314(d), which shall not be applicable to this Indenture unless it is qualified under the TIA) will control. 

(c) Each Holder, by accepting a Security, irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent to act as its agent under the Security Documents and
irrevocably authorizes the Collateral Agent to (i) perform the duties and exercise the rights, powers and discretions that are specifically given to it under the Security Documents, together with any other incidental rights, powers and
discretions and (ii) execute each document expressed to be executed by the Collateral Agent on its behalf. 
 (d) As among
the Holders, the Collateral shall be held for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders without preference, priority or distinction of any thereof over any other. 

SECTION 11.02. Release of Collateral. (a) Collateral may be released from the security interest created by the Security
Documents at any time or from time to time in accordance with the provisions of the Security Documents. The release of any Collateral from the terms hereof and of the Security Documents or the release of, in whole or in part, the Liens created by
the Security Documents, will not be deemed to impair the Lien on the Collateral in contravention of the provisions hereof if and to the extent the Collateral or Liens are released pursuant to the applicable Security Documents and pursuant to the
terms of this Article 11. The Trustee and each of the Holders acknowledge that a release of Collateral or a Lien strictly in accordance with the terms of the Security Documents and of this Article 11 will not be deemed for any purpose to
be an impairment of the Lien on the Collateral in contravention of the terms of this Indenture. 
 (b) The Liens created by the
Security Documents on the Collateral shall be automatically released, without the need for any further action by any Person, and will no longer secure the Securities or the Subsidiary Guarantees or any other Obligations under this Indenture, and the
right of the Holders and holders of such other Obligations to the benefits and proceeds of such Liens will terminate and be discharged: 

(1) in whole, upon payment in full of the principal of, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, and premium, if any, on, the
Securities; 
 (2) in whole, upon satisfaction and discharge of the Company’s obligations under this
Indenture in accordance with Article 8; 
  

 80 








 (3) in whole, upon a legal defeasance or covenant defeasance as described in
accordance with Article 8; 
 (4) in part, as to any property or asset constituting Collateral (A) that is
sold or otherwise disposed of or deemed disposed of in a transaction permitted by Section 4.06, (B) that is owned by a Subsidiary Guarantor to the extent such Subsidiary Guarantor has been released from its Subsidiary Guarantee in
accordance with Article 10 or (C) otherwise in accordance with, and as expressly provided for under, this Indenture (including a release of Excluded Assets (as defined in the Collateral Agreement) in connection with an Incurrence of Permitted
Indebtedness secured by a Permitted Lien or Permitted Collateral Lien); or 
 (5) pursuant to any amendment or
supplement to this Indenture or to the Securities effected in accordance with Article 9. 
 (c) In addition, Collateral may be
released from the Liens created by the Security Documents at any time or from time to time in accordance with the provisions of the Security Documents and any applicable Intercreditor Agreements. At the request of the Company (which request shall be
accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel and an Officers’ Certificate stating that all conditions precedent in the Indenture, Security Documents and any Intercreditor Agreement to the release of such Collateral have been satisfied) for a
confirmation, acknowledgement or other documentation reasonably requested by the Company to evidence the release of Liens or Collateral in accordance with this Section 11.02, at the Company’s and the Subsidiary Guarantors’ expense,
the Trustee shall promptly deliver such confirmation, acknowledgement or other documentation so reasonably requested by the Company. The release of any Collateral from the Lien of the Security Documents or the release, in whole or in part, of the
Liens created by the Security Documents, shall not be deemed to impair the Lien on the Collateral in contravention of the provisions of this Indenture if and to the extent the Collateral or Liens are released in accordance with the terms of the
applicable Security Documents, any applicable Intercreditor Agreements and this Article 11. 
 SECTION 11.03. After
Acquired Property. From and after the Issue Date, if the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor acquires any property which is of a type constituting Collateral under the Collateral Agreement or any other Security Document, it shall as soon as
practicable after the acquisition thereof execute and deliver such security instruments, financing statements and such Officers’ Certificates and Opinions of Counsel as are required under this Indenture and the Collateral Agreement to vest in
the Collateral Agent a perfected security interest (subject only to Permitted Collateral Liens) in such after-acquired property and to have such after-acquired property added to the Collateral, and thereupon all provisions of this Indenture relating
to the Collateral shall be deemed to relate to such after-acquired property to the same extent and with the same force and effect. If granting a security interest in such property requires the consent of a third party, the Company or the applicable
Subsidiary Guarantor will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such consent with respect to the first-priority security interest for the benefit of the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Holders of the

  

 81 








 
Securities. If such third party does not consent to the granting of the first-priority security interest after the use of such commercially reasonable efforts, the applicable entity will not be
required to provide such security interest. 
 SECTION 11.04. Reports, Certificates and Opinions. (a) To the extent
that this Indenture is qualified under the TIA, the Company will cause TIA §313(b), relating to reports, and TIA §314(d), relating to the release of property or securities or relating to the substitution therefor of any property or
securities to be subjected to the Lien of the Security Documents, to be complied with. Any certificate or opinion required by TIA §314(d) may be made by an Officer except in cases where TIA §314(d) requires that such certificate or opinion
be made by an independent Person, which Person will be an independent engineer, appraiser or other expert selected or reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee. 

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 11.04(a), the Company will not be required to comply with all or any portion
of TIA §314(d) if it determines, in good faith based on advice of counsel, that under the terms of TIA §314(d) and/or any interpretation or guidance as to the meaning thereof of the SEC and its staff, including “no action”
letters or exemptive orders, all or any portion of TIA §314(d) is inapplicable to the released Collateral. The Company will also not be required to comply with TIA §314(d) with respect to any of the following: 

(1) cash payments (including for the scheduled repayment of Indebtedness) in the ordinary course of business; 

(2) sales or other dispositions of inventory in the ordinary course of business; 

(3) collections, sales or other dispositions of accounts receivable in the ordinary course of business; and 

(4) sales or other dispositions in the ordinary course of business of any property the use of which is no longer necessary
or desirable in, and is not material to, the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries; 
 provided,
however, the Company’s right to rely on the above will be conditioned upon the Company’s delivering to the Trustee, within 30 calendar days following the end of each six-month period beginning on April 1 and October 1 of
each year, an Officers’ Certificate to the effect that all releases during such six-month period in respect of which the Company did not comply with TIA §314(d) in reliance on the above were made in the ordinary course of business. The
Company will otherwise comply with the provisions of TIA §314. 
 SECTION 11.05. Use of Trust Monies. To the extent
received by the Trustee pursuant to the provisions of any Intercreditor Agreement, this Indenture, the Security Documents or otherwise, all Trust Monies shall be held by the Trustee as a part of the Collateral securing the Securities and, so long as
no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, shall either (i) be released as contemplated by Section 4.06 if such 

 

 82 








 
Trust Monies represent Net Cash Proceeds or (ii) to the extent not required to be applied pursuant to Section 4.06, at the direction of the Company be applied by the Trustee from time
to time to the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on any Securities at maturity or upon redemption or retirement, or to the purchase of Securities upon tender or in the open market or otherwise, in each case in compliance
with this Indenture. The Trustee shall be entitled to apply any Trust Monies to cure any Event of Default. Trust Monies deposited with the Trustee shall be invested in Cash Equivalents pursuant to the direction of the Company and, so long as no
Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company shall be entitled to any interest or dividends accrued, earned or paid on such Cash Equivalents. 

Article 12

compliance with such instructions notwithstanding such instructions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction. The party providing electronic instructions agrees to assume all risks arising out of the use of such electronic

of Securities have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Securities owned by the Company or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company shall be disregarded
and deemed not to be outstanding, except that, for the purpose of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Securities which the Trustee knows are so owned shall be so disregarded.
Also, subject to the foregoing, only Securities outstanding at the time shall be considered in any such determination.

Holders. The Registrar and the Paying Agent may make reasonable rules for their functions.

Rule 144A Global Security or an IAI Global Security only upon certification in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee that (i) beneficial ownership interests in such Regulation S Global Security are owned either by non-U.S. persons or
U.S. persons who purchased such interests in a transaction that did not require registration under the Securities Act and (ii) in the case of an exchange for an IAI Global Security, certification that the interest in the Regulation S Global

view to or for offer or sale in connection with any distribution in violation of the Securities Act and (B) in accordance with all applicable securities laws of the States of the United States and other jurisdictions. 

Beneficial interests in a Rule 144A Global Security or an IAI Global Security may be transferred to a Person who takes delivery in
the form of an interest in a Regulation S Global Security, whether before or after the expiration of the Distribution 
  


 4 








 
Compliance Period, only if the transferor first delivers to the Trustee a written certificate (in the form provided in the Indenture) to the effect that such transfer is being made in accordance
with Rule 903 or 904 of Regulation S or Rule 144 (if applicable). 
 The Rule 144A Global Security, the IAI
Global Security and the Regulation S Global Security are collectively referred to herein as “Global Securities”. The aggregate principal amount of the Global Securities may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on
the records of the Trustee and the Depository or its nominee as hereinafter provided. 
 (b) Book-Entry Provisions. This
Section 2.1(b) shall apply only to a Global Security deposited with or on behalf of the Depository. 
 The Company shall
execute and the Trustee shall, in accordance with this Section 2.1(b), authenticate and deliver initially one or more Global Securities that (a) shall be registered in the name of the Depository for such Global Security or Global
Securities or the nominee of such Depository and (b) shall be delivered by the Trustee to such Depository or pursuant to such Depository’s instructions or held by the Trustee as custodian for the Depository. 

Members of, or participants in, the Depository (“Agent Members”) shall have no rights under the Indenture with respect to any
Global Security held on their behalf by the Depository or by the Trustee as the custodian of the Depository or under such Global Security, and the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be entitled to treat the
Depository as the absolute owner of such Global Security for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the Company or the Trustee from giving effect to any written
certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depository or impair, as between the Depository and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices of such Depository governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of a
beneficial interest in any Global Security.

Securities is to be authenticated and, in the case of any issuance of Additional Securities pursuant to Section 2.13 of the Indenture, shall certify that such issuance is in compliance with Section 4.03 of the Indenture.

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

 the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested if its reasonable requirements for such transaction are met;
provided, however, that the Definitive Securities surrendered for transfer or exchange: 
 (i)
shall be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or its attorney duly authorized in writing; and 

(ii) if such Definitive Securities are required to bear a restricted securities legend, they are being transferred or
exchanged pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, pursuant to Section 2.3(b) or pursuant to clause (A), (B) or (C) below, and are accompanied by the following additional information and documents, as
applicable: 
 (A) if such Definitive Securities are being delivered to the Registrar by a Holder for
registration in the name of such Holder, without transfer, a certification from such Holder to that effect; or 

(B) if such Definitive Securities are being transferred to the Company, a certification to that effect; or 

(C) if such Definitive Securities are being transferred (x) pursuant to an exemption from registration in accordance
with Rule 144A, Regulation S or Rule 144 under the Securities Act; or (y) in reliance upon another exemption from the requirements of the Securities Act: (i) a certification to that effect (in the form set forth on the reverse of the
Security) and (ii) if the Company so requests, an opinion of counsel or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to it as to the compliance with the restrictions set forth in the legend set forth in Section 2.3(e)(i). 

 

 6 








 (b) Restrictions on Transfer of a Definitive Security for a Beneficial Interest in a
Global Security. A Definitive Security may not be exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Rule 144A Global Security, an IAI Global Security or a Regulation S Global Security except upon satisfaction of the requirements set forth below.
Upon receipt by the Trustee of a Definitive Security, duly endorsed or accompanied by appropriate instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, together with: 

(i) certification, in the form set forth on the reverse of the Security, that such Definitive Security is either
(A) being transferred to a QIB in accordance with Rule 144A, (B) being transferred to an IAI or (C) being transferred after expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period by a Person who initially purchased such Security in reliance
on Regulation S to a buyer who elects to hold its interest in such Security in the form of a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Security; and 

(ii) written instructions directing the Trustee to make, or to direct the Securities Custodian to make, an adjustment on
its books and records with respect to such Rule 144A Global Security (in the case of a transfer pursuant to clause (b)(i)(A)), IAI Global Security (in the case of a transfer pursuant to clause (b)(1)(B)) or Regulation S Global Security (in the
case of a transfer pursuant to clause (b)(i)(B)) to reflect an increase in the aggregate principal amount of the Securities represented by the Rule 144A Global Security, IAI Global Security or Regulation S Global Security, as applicable, such
instructions to contain information regarding the Depository account to be credited with such increase, 
 then the Trustee shall cancel such
Definitive Security and cause, or direct the Securities Custodian to cause, in accordance with the standing instructions and procedures existing between the Depository and the Securities Custodian, the aggregate principal amount of Securities
represented by the Rule 144A Global Security, IAI Global Security or Regulation S Global Security, as applicable, to be increased by the aggregate principal amount of the Definitive Security to be exchanged and shall credit or cause to be credited
to the account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Security, IAI Global Security or Regulation S Global Security, as applicable, equal to the principal amount of the Definitive Security so
canceled. If no Rule 144A Global Securities, IAI Global Securities or Regulation S Global Securities, as applicable, are then outstanding, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate, upon written order of the Company in the form of
an Officers’ Certificate of the Company, a new Rule 144A Global Security, IAI Global Security or Regulation S Global Security, as applicable, in the appropriate principal amount. 

(c) Transfer and Exchange of Global Securities. 

(i) The transfer and exchange of Global Securities or beneficial interests therein shall be effected through the
Depository, in accordance with the Indenture (including applicable restrictions on transfer set forth herein, if any) and the procedures of the Depository therefor. A transferor of a beneficial interest in a Global Security shall deliver to the
Registrar a written order given in accordance with the Depository’s procedures containing information regarding the participant account of the Depository to be credited with a beneficial interest in the

  

 7 








 
Global Security. The Registrar shall, in accordance with such instructions instruct the Depository to credit to the account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in
the Global Security and to debit the account of the Person making the transfer the beneficial interest in the Global Security being transferred. 

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

(iii) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Appendix (other than the provisions set forth in Section 2.4), a
Global Security may not be transferred as a whole except by the Depository to a nominee of the Depository or by a nominee of the Depository to the Depository or another nominee of the Depository or by the Depository or any such nominee to a
successor Depository or a nominee of such successor Depository. 
 (iv) In the event that Global Security is
exchanged for Definitive Securities pursuant to Section 2.4 of this Appendix, prior to the consummation of a Registered Exchange Offer or the effectiveness of a Shelf Registration Statement with respect to such Securities, such Securities may
be exchanged only in accordance with such procedures as are substantially consistent with the provisions of this Section 2.3 (including the certification requirements set forth on the reverse of the Initial Securities intended to ensure that
such transfers comply with Rule 144A, Regulation S or another applicable exemption under the Securities Act, as the case may be) and such other procedures as may from time to time be adopted by the Company. 

(d) Restrictions on Transfer of Regulation S Global Securities. During the Distribution Compliance Period, beneficial ownership
interests in Regulation S Global Securities may only be sold, pledged or transferred in accordance with the Applicable Procedures and only (i) to the Company, (ii) in an offshore transaction in accordance with Regulation S or
(iii) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, in each case in accordance with any applicable securities laws of any State of the United States. 

 

 8 








 (e) Legend. 

(i) Except as permitted by the following paragraphs (ii), (iii) and (iv), each Security certificate evidencing
the Global Securities (and all Securities issued in exchange therefor or in substitution thereof) shall bear a legend in substantially the following form: 

THIS SECURITY (OR ITS PREDECESSOR) WAS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN A TRANSACTION EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT
OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND THIS SECURITY MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR AN APPLICABLE EXEMPTION THEREFROM. EACH PURCHASER OF THIS SECURITY IS HEREBY NOTIFIED
THAT THE SELLER OF THIS SECURITY MAY BE RELYING ON THE EXEMPTION FROM THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 5 OF THE SECURITIES ACT PROVIDED BY RULE 144A THEREUNDER. 

THE HOLDER OF THIS SECURITY AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE ISSUER THAT (A) THIS SECURITY MAY BE OFFERED, RESOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE
TRANSFERRED, ONLY (I) TO THE ISSUER, (II) IN THE UNITED STATES TO A PERSON WHOM THE SELLER REASONABLY BELIEVES IS A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) IN A TRANSACTION MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS
OF RULE 144A, (III) OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES IN AN OFFSHORE TRANSACTION IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 904 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, (IV) PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT PROVIDED BY RULE 144
THEREUNDER (IF AVAILABLE), (V) TO AN INSTITUTIONAL “ACCREDITED INVESTOR” WITHIN THE MEANING OF RULES 501(A)(1), (2), (3) OR (7) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT THAT IS ACQUIRING THE RESTRICTED NOTES FOR ITS OWN ACCOUNT OR FOR THE
ACCOUNT OF SUCH AN INSTITUTIONAL ACCREDITED INVESTOR IN EACH CASE IN A MINIMUM PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF SUCH NOTES 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 (VI) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, IN EACH OF CASES (I) THROUGH (VI) IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES, AND (B) THE HOLDER
WILL, AND EACH SUBSEQUENT HOLDER IS REQUIRED TO, NOTIFY ANY PURCHASER OF THIS SECURITY FROM IT OF THE RESALE RESTRICTIONS REFERRED TO IN (A) ABOVE. 
  

 9 








 Each certificate evidencing a Security offered in reliance on Regulation S
shall, in addition to the foregoing, bear a legend in substantially the following form: 
 THIS SECURITY (OR ITS PREDECESSOR)
WAS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN A TRANSACTION ORIGINALLY EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED IN THE UNITED STATES OR TO, OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OR BENEFIT OF,
ANY U.S. PERSON EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND ALL APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. TERMS USED ABOVE HAVE THE MEANINGS GIVEN TO THEM IN REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT.

 Each Definitive Security shall also bear the following additional legend: 

IN CONNECTION WITH ANY TRANSFER, THE HOLDER WILL DELIVER TO THE REGISTRAR AND TRANSFER AGENT SUCH CERTIFICATES AND OTHER INFORMATION AS
SUCH TRANSFER AGENT MAY REASONABLY REQUIRE TO CONFIRM THAT THE TRANSFER COMPLIES WITH THE FOREGOING RESTRICTIONS. 

(ii) Upon any sale or transfer of a Transfer Restricted Security (including any Transfer Restricted Security represented
by a Global Security) pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, the Registrar shall permit the transferee thereof to exchange such Transfer Restricted Security for a certificated Security that does not bear the legend set forth above and
rescind any restriction on the transfer of such Transfer Restricted Security, if the transferor thereof certifies in writing to the Registrar that such sale or transfer was made in reliance on Rule 144 (such certification to be in the form set
forth on the reverse of the Security). 
 (iii) After a transfer of any Initial Securities or Private Exchange
Securities pursuant to and during the period of the effectiveness of a Shelf Registration Statement with respect to such Initial Securities or Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be, all requirements pertaining to legends on such Initial
Security or such Private Exchange 
  

 10 








 
Security will cease to apply, the requirements requiring any such Initial Security or such Private Exchange Security issued to certain Holders be issued in global form will cease to apply, and a
certificated Initial Security or Private Exchange Security or an Initial Security or Private Exchange Security in global form, in each case without restrictive transfer legends, will be available to the transferee of the Holder of such Initial
Securities or Private Exchange Securities upon exchange of such transferring Holder’s certificated Initial Security or Private Exchange Security or directions to transfer such Holder’s interest in the Global Security, as applicable.

 (iv) Upon the consummation of a Registered Exchange Offer with respect to the Initial Securities, all
requirements pertaining to such Initial Securities that Initial Securities issued to certain Holders be issued in global form will still apply with respect to Holders of such Initial Securities that do not exchange their Initial Securities, and
Exchange Securities in certificated or global form, in each case without the restricted securities legend set forth in Exhibit 1 hereto will be available to Holders that exchange such Initial Securities in such Registered Exchange Offer.

 (v) Upon the consummation of a Private Exchange with respect to the Initial Securities, all requirements
pertaining to such Initial Securities that Initial Securities issued to certain Holders be issued in global form will still apply with respect to Holders of such Initial Securities that do not exchange their Initial Securities, and Private Exchange
Securities in global form with the global securities legend and the applicable restricted securities legend set forth in Exhibit 1 hereto will be available to Holders that exchange such Initial Securities in such Private Exchange. 

(f) Cancellation or Adjustment of Global Security. At such time as all beneficial interests in a Global Security have either been
exchanged for Definitive Securities, redeemed, purchased or canceled, such Global Security shall be returned to the Depository for cancellation or retained and canceled by the Trustee. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial
interest in a Global Security is exchanged for certificated Securities, redeemed, purchased or canceled, the principal amount of Securities represented by such Global Security shall be reduced and an adjustment shall be made on the books and records
of the Trustee (if it is then the Securities Custodian for such Global Security) with respect to such Global Security, by the Trustee or the Securities Custodian, to reflect such reduction. 

(g) No Obligation of the Trustee. 

(i) The Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation to any beneficial owner of a Global Security, a member of, or a
participant in the Depository or other Person with respect to the accuracy of the records of the Depository or its nominee or of any participant or member thereof, with respect to any ownership interest in the Securities or with respect to

  

 11 








 
the delivery to any participant, member, beneficial owner or other Person (other than the Depository) of any notice (including any notice of redemption) or the payment of any amount, under or
with respect to such Securities. All notices and communications to be given to the Holders and all payments to be made to Holders under the Securities shall be given or made only to or upon the order of the registered Holders (which shall be the
Depository or its nominee in the case of a Global Security). The rights of beneficial owners in any Global Security shall be exercised only through the Depository subject to the applicable rules and procedures of the Depository. The Trustee may rely
and shall be fully protected in relying upon information furnished by the Depository with respect to its members, participants and any beneficial owners. 

(ii) The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions
on transfer imposed under the Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Security (including any transfers between or among Depository participants, members or beneficial owners in any Global Security)
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 the Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial
compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof. 
 (iii) The Trustee shall have no responsibility for
any action taken or not taken by the Depository. 
 2.4 Definitive Securities. 

(a) A Global Security deposited with the Depository or with the Trustee as Securities Custodian for the Depository pursuant to
Section 2.1 shall be transferred to the beneficial owners thereof in the form of Definitive Securities in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Global Security, in exchange for such Global Security, only if such
transfer complies with Section 2.3 hereof and (i) the Depository notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depository for such Global Security and the Depository fails to appoint a successor depository or if at any
time such Depository ceases to be a “clearing agency” registered under the Exchange Act, in either case, and a successor depository is not appointed by the Company within 90 days of such notice, (ii) an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing or (iii) the Company, in its sole discretion, notifies the Trustee in writing that it elects to cause the issuance of Definitive Securities under the Indenture. 

(b) Any Global Security that is transferable to the beneficial owners thereof pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall be surrendered by
the Depository to the Trustee located at its principal corporate trust office in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, located at 101 Barclay Street, New York, New York 1286, Attention: Corporate Trust Administration, to be so transferred,
in whole or from time to time in 
  

 12 








 
part, without charge, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, upon such transfer of each portion of such Global Security, an equal aggregate principal amount of Definitive Securities of
authorized denominations. Any portion of a Global Security transferred pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall be executed, authenticated and delivered only in minimum denominations of $2,000 principal amount and any integral multiple of $1,000 in
excess thereof and registered in such names as the Depository shall direct. Any Definitive Security delivered in exchange for an interest in the Transfer Restricted Security shall, except as otherwise provided by Section 2.3(e) hereof, bear the
applicable restricted securities legend and definitive securities legend set forth in Exhibit 1 hereto. 
 (c) Subject to
the provisions of Section 2.4(b) hereof, the registered Holder of a Global Security shall be entitled to grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Agent Members and Persons that may hold interests through Agent Members, to
take any action which a Holder is entitled to take under the Indenture or the Securities. 
 (d) In the event of the occurrence
of one of the events specified in Section 2.4(a) hereof, the Company shall promptly make available to the Trustee a reasonable supply of Definitive Securities in definitive, fully registered form without interest coupons. In the event that such
Definitive Securities are not issued, the Company expressly acknowledges, with respect to the right of any Holder to pursue a remedy pursuant to Section 6.06 of the Indenture, the right of any beneficial owner of Securities to pursue such
remedy with respect to the portion of the Global Security that represents such beneficial owner’s Securities as if such Definitive Securities had been issued.

 [FORM OF REVERSE SIDE OF INITIAL SECURITY] 

10 
3/4% Senior Secured Notes due 2015 
  

	1.	Interest 

 Rotech
Healthcare Inc., a Delaware corporation (such corporation, and its successors and assigns under the Indenture hereinafter referred to, being herein called the “Company”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Security at
the rate per annum shown above; provided, however, that if a Registration Default (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) occurs, additional interest will accrue on this Security at a rate of 0.25% per annum (increasing
by an additional 0.25% per annum after each consecutive 90-day period that occurs after the date on which such Registration Default occurs up to a maximum additional interest rate of 1.00%) from and including the date on which any such
Registration Default shall occur to but excluding the date on which all Registration Defaults have been cured. Within a reasonable amount of time following the occurrence of a Registration Default, the Company will provide notice to the Trustee of
such Registration Default. The Company will pay interest semiannually on April 15 and October 15 of each year, commencing April 15, 2011. Interest on the Securities will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid
or, if no interest has been paid, from October 6, 2010. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. The Company will pay interest on overdue principal at the rate borne by this Security plus 1.00% per
annum, and it will pay interest on overdue installments of interest at the same rate to the extent lawful. 
  

	2.	Method of Payment 

 The
Company will pay interest on the Securities (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered holders of Securities at the close of business on the April 1 or October 1 next preceding the interest payment date even if
Securities are canceled after the record date and on or before the interest payment date. Holders must surrender Securities to a Paying Agent to collect principal payments. The Company will pay principal and interest in money of the United States
that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. Payments in respect of the Securities represented by a Global Security (including principal, premium and interest) will be made by wire transfer of immediately
available funds to the accounts specified by The Depository Trust Company. The Company will make all payments in respect of a certificated Security (including principal, premium and interest) by mailing a check to the registered address of each
Holder thereof; provided, however, that payments on a certificated Security will be made by wire transfer to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the payee with a bank in the United States if such Holder elects payment by wire transfer
by giving written notice to the Trustee or the Paying Agent to such effect designating such account no later than 30 days immediately preceding the relevant due date for payment (or such other date as the Trustee may accept in its discretion).

  

 5 









	3.	Maturity 

 The Securities
will mature on October 15, 2015; provided, that the maturity date of the Securities will be automatically shortened to December 31, 2011, unless prior to November 30, 2011, the aggregate principal amount of the Existing Notes
that have not been canceled in accordance with the indenture governing the Existing Notes is less than or equal to $10,000,000. Within 15 days following the date on which the aggregate principal amount of the Existing Notes that have not been
canceled in accordance with the indenture governing the Existing Notes has been reduced to an amount less than or equal to $10,000,000, the Company shall mail a notice to each Holder, with a copy to the Trustee stating that such condition has been
satisfied and providing the balance of the Existing Notes outstanding as of the date of the such notice. 
  

	4.	Paying Agent and Registrar 


Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (the “Trustee”), will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company
may appoint and change any Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar without notice. The Company or any of its domestically incorporated Wholly Owned Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar. 

 

	5.	Indenture 

 The Company
issued the Securities under an Indenture dated as of October 6, 2010 (“Indenture”), among the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee. The terms of the Securities include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of
the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S.C. §§ 77aaa-77bbbb) as in effect on the date of the Indenture (the “Act”). Terms defined in the Indenture and not defined herein have the meanings
ascribed thereto in the Indenture. The Securities are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the Act for a statement of those terms. 

The Securities are general secured obligations of the Company. The Company shall be entitled, subject to its compliance with
Section 4.03 of the Indenture, to issue Additional Securities pursuant to Section 2.13 of the Indenture. The Initial Securities issued on the Issue Date, any Additional Securities and all Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities
issued in exchange therefor will be treated as a single class for all purposes under the Indenture. The Indenture contains covenants that limit the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness; pay dividends or
distributions on, or redeem or repurchase capital stock; make investments; issue or sell capital stock of subsidiaries; engage in transactions with affiliates; create liens on assets; transfer or sell assets; guarantee indebtedness; restrict
dividends or other payments of subsidiaries; consolidate, merge or transfer all or substantially all of its assets and the assets of its subsidiaries; and engage in sale/leaseback transactions. These covenants are subject to important exceptions and
qualifications. 
  

 6 









	6.	Optional Redemption 


Except as set forth below, the Company shall not be entitled to redeem the Securities. 

On and after April 15, 2013, the Company shall be entitled at its option to redeem all or a portion of the Securities upon not less
than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at the redemption prices (expressed in percentages of principal amount on the redemption date), plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the
relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date), if redeemed on or after the dates set forth below: 
  

			
	 Period
	  	Redemption
Price
		
	 April 15, 2013 - October 14, 2013
	  	105.375%
		
	 October 15, 2013 - October 14, 2014
	  	102.688%
		
	 October 15, 2014 and thereafter
	  	100.000%

 Unless the
Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on the Securities or portions thereof called for redemption on the applicable redemption date. 

In addition, at any time prior to April 15, 2013, the Company shall be entitled at its option on one or more occasions to redeem
Securities (which includes Additional Securities, if any) in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities (which includes Additional Securities, if any) originally issued at a redemption price
(expressed as a percentage of principal amount) of 110.750%, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment
date), with the Net Cash Proceeds from one or more Equity Offerings; provided, however, that (1) at least 65% of such aggregate principal amount of Securities (which includes Additional Securities and Exchange Securities, if any)
remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of each such redemption (other than Securities held, directly or indirectly, by the Company or its Subsidiaries); and (2) each such redemption occurs within 90 days after the date of the
related Equity Offering. 
 Prior to April 15, 2013, the Company shall be entitled at its option to redeem all or a portion
of the Securities at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest to, the redemption date (subject to the right of Holders on the relevant record date
to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date). The Company shall cause notice of such redemption to be mailed by first-class mail to each Holder’s registered address, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the
redemption date. 
  

 7 









	7.	Notice of Redemption 

 The
Company shall cause notices of redemption to be mailed by first-class mail at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption
notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to the redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Securities or a satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture. Any defect in the notice of redemption, including a
failure to give notice, to any Holder selected for redemption will not impair or affect the validity of the redemption of any other Security redeemed in accordance with provisions of the Indenture. The Company will redeem Securities in denominations
of $2,000 or less in whole and not in part. If money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on all Securities (or portions thereof) to be redeemed on the redemption date is deposited with the Paying Agent by 1:00 P.M., New
York City time, on the redemption date and certain other conditions are satisfied, unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after such date interest ceases to accrue on such Securities (or such portions thereof) called
for redemption. 
  

	8.	Put Provisions 

 Upon a
Change of Control, any Holder of Securities will have the right to cause the Company to repurchase all or any part of the Securities of such Holder at a repurchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Securities to be repurchased plus
accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the related interest payment date) as provided in, and subject to the terms of, the
Indenture. 
  

	9.	Guarantee 

 The payment by
the Company of the principal of, and premium and interest on, the Securities is fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several senior secured basis by each of the Subsidiary Guarantors to the extent set forth in the Indenture.

  

	10.	Security 

 The Securities
will be secured by first-priority security interests (subject to Permitted Collateral Liens) in the Collateral. Subject to exceptions described in the Indenture and the Collateral Agreement, the Collateral consists of substantially all of the
property and assets of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors. 
  

	11.	Denominations; Transfer; Exchange 


The Securities are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 principal amount and whole multiples of $1,000. A Holder
may transfer or exchange Securities in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements or transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the
Indenture. The Registrar need not register the transfer of or exchange any Securities selected for redemption (except, in the case of a Security to be redeemed in part, the portion of the Security not to be redeemed) or any Securities for a period
of 15 days before a selection of Securities to be redeemed or 15 days before an interest payment date. 
  

 8 









	12.	Persons Deemed Owners 


The registered Holder of this Security may be treated as the owner of it for all purposes. 

 

	13.	Unclaimed Money 

 If money
for the payment of principal or interest remains unclaimed for two years, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall pay the money back to the Company at its request unless an abandoned property law designates another Person. After any such payment, Holders
entitled to the money must look only to the Company and not to the Trustee for payment. 
  

	14.	Discharge and Defeasance 


Subject to certain conditions, the Company at any time shall be entitled to terminate some or all of the Company’s and the Subsidiary
Guarantors’ obligations under the Securities, the Subsidiary Guarantees and the Indenture if the Company deposits with the Trustee money or U.S. Government Obligations for the payment of principal and interest on the Securities to redemption or
maturity, as the case may be. 
  

	15.	Amendment; Waiver 


Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, (a) the Indenture, the Securities, the Security Documents and any
Intercreditor Agreement may be amended with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount outstanding of the Securities and (b) any default or noncompliance with any provision may be waived with the written
consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount outstanding of the Securities. Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, without the consent of any Holder, the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee shall be
entitled to amend the Indenture, the Securities, the Security Documents and any Intercreditor Agreement to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency, or to comply with Article 5 of the Indenture, or to provide for uncertificated
Securities in addition to or in place of certificated Securities, or to add Guarantees with respect to the Securities, including Subsidiary Guarantees, or to secure the Securities, or to add additional covenants or surrender rights and powers
conferred on the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors, or to comply with any requirement of the SEC in connection with qualifying the Indenture under the Act, or to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder, or to make
amendments to provisions of the Indenture relating to the form, authentication, transfer and legending of the Securities. 
  

 9 









	16.	Defaults and Remedies 


Under the Indenture, Events of Default include (a) default for 30 days in payment of interest on the Securities;
(b) default in payment of principal on the Securities at maturity, upon redemption pursuant to Section 6 of the Securities, upon acceleration or otherwise, or failure by the Company to redeem or purchase Securities when required;
(c) failure by the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor to comply with other agreements in the Indenture or the Securities, in certain cases subject to notice and lapse of time; (d) certain accelerations (including failure to pay within any
grace period after final maturity) of other Indebtedness of the Company if the amount accelerated (or so unpaid) exceeds $10,000,000; (e) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company and the Significant Subsidiaries;
(f) certain judgments or decrees for the payment of money in excess of $10,000,000; (g) certain defaults with respect to Subsidiary Guarantees; and (h) certain defaults relating to the Collateral under the Security Documents. If an
Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Securities may declare all the Securities to be due and payable immediately. In the event of an acceleration that occurs prior to
October 15, 2014, an amount will also become due and payable as of the day immediately preceding the day that the Securities were accelerated equal to the premium that would then be payable by the Company if the Company elected to redeem the
Securities at its option on such date pursuant to the provisions described in Section 6 above. Certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency are Events of Default which will result in the Securities being due and payable immediately upon the
occurrence of such Events of Default. 
 Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Securities except as provided in the
Indenture. The Trustee may refuse to enforce the Indenture or the Securities unless it receives indemnity or security satisfactory to it. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities may direct the
Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders notice of any continuing Default (except a Default in payment of principal or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in the interest of the Holders.

  

	17.	Trustee Dealings with the Company 


Subject to certain limitations imposed by the Act, the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become
the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with and collect obligations owed to it by the Company or its Affiliates and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.

  

	18.	No Recourse Against Others 


A director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of the Company or the Trustee shall not have any liability for any obligations of
the Company under the Securities or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. By accepting a Security, each Holder waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are
part of the consideration for the issue of the Securities.

entireties), JT TEN (=joint tenants with rights of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (=custodian), and U/G/M/A (=Uniform Gift to Minors Act).

numbers to be printed on the Securities and has directed the Trustee to use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as
contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.

 [FORM OF REVERSE SIDE OF EXCHANGE SECURITY 

OR PRIVATE EXCHANGE SECURITY] 

10 
3/4% Senior Secured Notes due 2015 

1. Interest 

Rotech Healthcare Inc., a Delaware corporation (such corporation, and its successors and assigns under the Indenture
hereinafter referred to, being herein called the “Company”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Security at the rate per annum shown above[; provided, however, that if a Registration Default (as defined
in the Registration Rights Agreement) occurs, additional interest will accrue on this Security at a rate of 0.25% per annum (increasing by an additional 0.25% per annum after each consecutive 90-day period that occurs after the date on
which such Registration Default occurs up to a maximum additional interest rate of 1.00%) from and including the date on which any such Registration Default shall occur to but excluding the date on which all Registration Defaults have been cured.
Within a reasonable amount of time following the occurrence of a Registration Default, the Company will provide notice to the Trustee of such Registration
Default.]1 The Company will pay interest semiannually
on April 15 and October 15 of each year, commencing April 15, 2011. Interest on the Securities will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from October 6, 2010. Interest
will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. The Company will pay interest on overdue principal at the rate borne by this Security plus 1.00% per annum, and it will pay interest on overdue installments of interest at
the same rate to the extent lawful. 
 2. Method of Payment 

The Company will pay interest on the Securities (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered holders of Securities at the
close of business on the April 1 or October 1 next preceding the interest payment date even if Securities are canceled after the record date and on or before the interest payment date. Holders must surrender Securities to a Paying Agent to
collect principal payments. The Company will pay principal and interest in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. Payments in respect of the Securities represented by a Global
Security (including principal, premium and interest) will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by The Depository Trust Company. The Company will make all payments in respect of a certificated Security
(including principal, premium and interest) by mailing a check to the registered address of each Holder thereof; provided, however, that payments on a certificated Security will be made by wire transfer to a U.S. dollar account
maintained by 
  
  

	1
	 Insert if at the date of issuance of the Exchange Security or Private Exchange Security (as the case may be) any Registration Default has occurred with
respect to the related Initial Securities during the interest period in which such date of issuance occurs.

the payee with a bank in the United States if such Holder elects payment by wire transfer by giving written notice to the Trustee or the Paying Agent to such effect designating such account no
later than 30 days immediately preceding the relevant due date for payment (or such other date as the Trustee may accept in its discretion). 

3. Maturity 
 The
Securities will mature on October 15, 2015; provided, that the maturity date of the Securities will be automatically shortened to December 31, 2011, unless prior to November 30, 2011, the aggregate principal amount of the
Existing Notes that have not been canceled in accordance with the indenture governing the Existing Notes is less than or equal to $10,000,000. Within 15 days following the date on which the aggregate principal amount of the Existing Notes that
have not been canceled in accordance with the indenture governing the Existing Notes has been reduced to an amount less than or equal to $10,000,000, the Company shall mail a notice to each Holder, with a copy to the Trustee stating that such
condition has been satisfied and providing the balance of the Existing Notes outstanding as of the date of the such notice. 
 4. Paying
Agent and Registrar 
 Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (the “Trustee”), will act as
Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may appoint and change any Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar without notice. The Company or any of its domestically incorporated Wholly Owned Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent, Registrar or
co-registrar. 
 5. Indenture 

The Company issued the Securities under an Indenture dated as of October 6, 2010 (“Indenture”), among the Company, the
Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee. The terms of the Securities include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S.C. §§ 77aaa-77bbbb) as in
effect on the date of the Indenture (the “Act”). Terms defined in the Indenture and not defined herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture. The Securities are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the
Indenture and the Act for a statement of those terms. 
 The Securities are general secured obligations of the Company. The
Company shall be entitled, subject to its compliance with Section 4.03 of the Indenture, to issue Additional Securities pursuant to Section 2.13 of the Indenture. The Initial Securities issued on the Issue Date, any Additional Securities
and all Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities issued in exchange therefor will be treated as a single class for all purposes under the Indenture. The Indenture contains covenants that limit the ability of the Company and its
subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness; pay dividends or distributions on, or redeem or repurchase capital stock; make investments; issue or sell capital stock of subsidiaries; engage in transactions with affiliates; create liens on assets;
transfer or sell assets; guarantee indebtedness; restrict dividends or other payments of subsidiaries; consolidate, merge or transfer all or substantially all of its assets and the assets of its subsidiaries; and engage in sale/leaseback
transactions. These covenants are subject to important exceptions and qualifications.

 6. Optional Redemption 

Except as set forth below, the Company shall not be entitled to redeem the Securities. 

On and after April 15, 2013, the Company shall be entitled at its option to redeem all or a portion of the Securities upon not less
than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at the redemption prices (expressed in percentages of principal amount on the redemption date), plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the
relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date), if redeemed on or after the dates set forth below: 
  

				
	 Period
	  	Redemption
Price	 
	 April 15, 2013 - October 14, 2013
	  	105.375	% 
	 October 15, 2013 - October 14, 2014
	  	102.688	% 
	 October 15, 2014 and thereafter
	  	100.000	% 

 Unless the
Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on the Securities or portions thereof called for redemption on the applicable redemption date. 

In addition, at any time prior to April 15, 2013, the Company shall be entitled at its option on one or more occasions to redeem
Securities (which includes Additional Securities, if any) in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities (which includes Additional Securities, if any) originally issued at a redemption price
(expressed as a percentage of principal amount) of 110.750%, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment
date), with the Net Cash Proceeds from one or more Equity Offerings; provided, however, that (1) at least 65% of such aggregate principal amount of Securities (which includes Additional Securities and Exchange Securities, if any)
remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of each such redemption (other than Securities held, directly or indirectly, by the Company or its Subsidiaries); and (2) each such redemption occurs within 90 days after the date of the
related Equity Offering. 
 Prior to April 15, 2013, the Company shall be entitled at its option to redeem all or a portion
of the Securities at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest to, the redemption date (subject to the right of Holders on the relevant record date
to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date). The Company shall cause notice of such redemption to be mailed by first-class mail to each Holder’s registered address, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the
redemption date. 
  

 5 








 7. Notice of Redemption 

The Company shall cause notices of redemption to be mailed by first-class mail at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before
the redemption date to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to the redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of
the Securities or a satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture. Any defect in the notice of redemption, including a failure to give notice, to any Holder selected for redemption will not impair or affect the validity of the redemption of any other
Security redeemed in accordance with provisions of the Indenture. The Company will redeem Securities in denominations of $2,000 or less in whole and not in part. If money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on all
Securities (or portions thereof) to be redeemed on the redemption date is deposited with the Paying Agent by 1:00 P.M., New York City time, on the redemption date and certain other conditions are satisfied, unless the Company defaults in payment of
the redemption price, on and after such date interest ceases to accrue on such Securities (or such portions thereof) called for redemption. 

8. Put Provisions 
 Upon
a Change of Control, any Holder of Securities will have the right to cause the Company to repurchase all or any part of the Securities of such Holder at a repurchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Securities to be repurchased
plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the related interest payment date) as provided in, and subject to the terms of, the
Indenture. 
 9. Guarantee 

The payment by the Company of the principal of, and premium and interest on, the Securities is fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a
joint and several senior secured basis by each of the Subsidiary Guarantors to the extent set forth in the Indenture. 
 10. Security

 The Securities will be secured by first-priority security interests (subject to Permitted Collateral Liens) in the Collateral.
Subject to exceptions described in the Indenture and the Collateral Agreement, the Collateral consists of substantially all of the property and assets of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors. 

11. Denominations; Transfer; Exchange 

The Securities are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 principal amount and whole multiples of $1,000. A Holder
may transfer or exchange Securities in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar may require a Holder, among 
  

 6 








 
other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements or transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Registrar need not register the transfer
of or exchange any Securities selected for redemption (except, in the case of a Security to be redeemed in part, the portion of the Security not to be redeemed) or any Securities for a period of 15 days before a selection of Securities to be
redeemed or 15 days before an interest payment date. 
 12. Persons Deemed Owners 

The registered Holder of this Security may be treated as the owner of it for all purposes. 

13. Unclaimed Money 
 If
money for the payment of principal or interest remains unclaimed for two years, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall pay the money back to the Company at its request unless an abandoned property law designates another Person. After any such payment,
Holders entitled to the money must look only to the Company and not to the Trustee for payment. 
 14. Discharge and Defeasance

 Subject to certain conditions, the Company at any time shall be entitled to terminate some or all of the Company’s and
the Subsidiary Guarantors’ obligations under the Securities, the Subsidiary Guarantees and the Indenture if the Company deposits with the Trustee money or U.S. Government Obligations for the payment of principal and interest on the Securities
to redemption or maturity, as the case may be. 
 15. Amendment; Waiver 

Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, (a) the Indenture, the Securities, the Security Documents and any
Intercreditor Agreement may be amended with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount outstanding of the Securities and (b) any default or noncompliance with any provision may be waived with the written
consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount outstanding of the Securities. Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, without the consent of any Holder, the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee shall be
entitled to amend the Indenture, the Securities, the Security Documents and any Intercreditor Agreement to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency, or to comply with Article 5 of the Indenture, or to provide for uncertificated
Securities in addition to or in place of certificated Securities, or to add Guarantees with respect to the Securities, including Subsidiary Guarantees, or to secure the Securities, or to add additional covenants or surrender rights and powers
conferred on the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors, or to comply with any requirement of the SEC in connection with qualifying the Indenture under the Act, or to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder, or to make
amendments to provisions of the Indenture relating to the form, authentication, transfer and legending of the Securities. 
  

 7 








 16. Defaults and Remedies 

Under the Indenture, Events of Default include (a) default for 30 days in payment of interest on the Securities;
(b) default in payment of principal on the Securities at maturity, upon redemption pursuant to Section 6 of the Securities, upon acceleration or otherwise, or failure by the Company to redeem or purchase Securities when required;
(c) failure by the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor to comply with other agreements in the Indenture or the Securities, in certain cases subject to notice and lapse of time; (d) certain accelerations (including failure to pay within any
grace period after final maturity) of other Indebtedness of the Company if the amount accelerated (or so unpaid) exceeds $10,000,000; (e) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company and the Significant Subsidiaries;
(f) certain judgments or decrees for the payment of money in excess of $10,000,000; (g) certain defaults with respect to Subsidiary Guarantees; and (h) certain defaults relating to the Collateral under the Security Documents. If an
Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Securities may declare all the Securities to be due and payable immediately. In the event of an acceleration that occurs prior to
October 15, 2014, an amount will also become due and payable as of the day immediately preceding the day that the Securities were accelerated equal to the premium that would then be payable by the Company if the Company elected to redeem the
Securities at its option on such date pursuant to the provisions described in Section 6 above. Certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency are Events of Default which will result in the Securities being due and payable immediately upon the
occurrence of such Events of Default. 
 Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Securities except as provided in the
Indenture. The Trustee may refuse to enforce the Indenture or the Securities unless it receives indemnity or security satisfactory to it. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities may direct the
Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders notice of any continuing Default (except a Default in payment of principal or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in the interest of the Holders.

 17. Trustee Dealings with the Company 

Subject to certain limitations imposed by the Act, the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become
the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with and collect obligations owed to it by the Company or its Affiliates and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.

 18. No Recourse Against Others 

A director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of the Company or the Trustee shall not have any liability for any obligations of
the Company under the Securities or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. By accepting a Security, each Holder waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are
part of the consideration for the issue of the Securities.

 19. Authentication 

This Security shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee (or an authenticating agent) manually signs the certificate
of authentication on the other side of this Security.

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 rights of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (=custodian), and U/G/M/A (=Uniform Gift to Minors Act). 

21. CUSIP Numbers 

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

circumstance whatsoever (but, in each case, subject to Section 2.02), each Authorized Representative, for itself and on behalf of its Related Secured Parties, agrees that valid and perfected Liens on any Shared Collateral securing First Lien

Parties (all such proceeds, distributions and payments being collectively referred to as “Proceeds”), shall be applied as follows: 

(1) FIRST, to the payment of all amounts owing to the Collateral Agent (in its capacity as such) pursuant to the terms of

 B-9 








 
connection with such sale, collection or other liquidation, or such other enforcement of rights or exercise of remedies (including all court costs and the fees and expenses of their agents and

or reimbursable to the Collateral Agent under any First Lien Credit Document in its capacity as such; 
 (2)
SECOND, to the payment of all amounts owing to Authorized Representatives (in their capacity as such); 
 (3)
THIRD, to the payment in full of the First Lien Obligations of each Class secured by a valid and perfected Lien on such Shared Collateral at the time due and payable (the amounts so applied to be distributed ratably in accordance with the amounts of
the outstanding First Lien Obligations of each such Class on the date of such application); provided that amounts applied under this clause THIRD during any period when the First Lien Obligations of any such Class shall not be due and payable in
full shall be allocated to the First Lien Obligations of such Class as if such First Lien Obligations were at the time due and payable in full, and any amounts allocated to the payment of the First Lien Obligations of such Class that are not yet due

successors or assigns, as their interests may appear, to whosoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same pursuant to any Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

valid and perfected Lien on any of the Collateral securing any First Lien Obligations of any other Class and/or (iii) any

Obligations of such Class, but junior to the Lien on such Shared Collateral securing any First Lien Obligations of any other Class (any such Lien being referred to as an “Intervening Lien”, and any such Person being referred to as
an “Intervening Creditor”), or (b) the existence of any Collateral securing First Lien Obligations of any other Class that does not constitute Shared Collateral with respect to First Lien Obligations of such Class (any

Section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code), any reference to the First Lien Obligations of such Class or the First Lien Documents of such Class shall refer to such obligations or such documents as so modified.

contrary in the First Lien Credit Documents (other than this Agreement), (i) only the Collateral Agent shall, and shall have the right to, exercise, or refrain from exercising, any rights, remedies and powers with respect to the Shared

any such instruction or direction by the Applicable Authorized Representative, the Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion, could expose the Collateral Agent to liability or be contrary to any First Lien
Document or applicable law, and (iii) no Non-Controlling Authorized Representative or any other Secured Party (other than the Applicable Authorized Representative) shall, or shall instruct the Collateral Agent to, commence any judicial or
nonjudicial foreclosure proceedings with respect to, seek to have a trustee, receiver, liquidator or similar official appointed for or over, attempt any action to take possession of, take any other action to enforce its security interest in or

exercise any such rights, remedies and powers with respect to Shared Collateral. Notwithstanding the equal priority of the Liens established under Section 2.01(a), the Collateral Agent (acting on the instructions of the Applicable Authorized
Representative) may deal with the Shared Collateral as if the Collateral Agent had a senior Lien on such Collateral. No Non-Controlling Authorized Representative or Non-Controlling Secured Party will contest, protest or object to any foreclosure
proceeding or action brought by the Collateral Agent, the Applicable Authorized Representative or any Controlling Secured Party, or any other exercise by the Collateral Agent, the Applicable Authorized Representative or any Controlling Secured Party
of any rights, remedies or powers with respect to the Shared Collateral, or seek to cause the Collateral Agent to do so. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to limit the rights and priorities of the Collateral Agent, any Authorized
Representative or any other Secured Party with respect to any Collateral not constituting Shared Collateral.

Collateral Agent and each of the Authorized Representatives agrees that it will not accept any Lien on any asset of any Grantor securing First Lien Obligations of any Class for the benefit of any Secured Party of such Class other than pursuant to
the First Lien Security Documents, other than (i) any funds deposited for the discharge or defeasance of First Lien Obligations of any Class and (ii) any rights of set-off created under the First Lien Credit Documents of any Class.

Proceeding), (i) the validity, attachment, creation, perfection, priority or enforceability of a Lien held by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent or any other Authorized Representative or any of its Related Secured Parties in all or any part
of the Collateral, (ii) the validity, enforceability or effectiveness of any First Lien Obligation of any Class or any First Lien Security Document of any Class or (iii) the validity, enforceability or effectiveness of the priorities,
rights or duties established by, or other provisions of, this Agreement; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of the Collateral Agent, any Authorized Representative or any of its Related
Secured Parties to enforce this Agreement.

Authorized Representatives, for itself and on behalf of its Related Secured Parties, agrees that (i) neither such Authorized Representative nor its Related Secured Parties will (and each hereby waives any right to) take or cause to be taken any

Agent, (ii) except as provided in 
  

 B-12

Proceeding is pending at the time) the Liens on such Shared Collateral in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties of all Classes, will automatically be released and discharged; provided that any Proceeds realized
therefrom shall be applied pursuant to Section 2.01(b). 
  

 B-13 








 (b) Each of the Authorized Representatives, for itself and on behalf of its Related Secured
Parties, acknowledges and agrees that (i) the Collateral Agent may enter into any amendment or other modification to any First Lien Security Document so long as the Collateral Agent receives a certificate of the Issuer stating that such
amendment or other modification is permitted by the terms of the First Lien Credit Documents of each Class and (ii) the Collateral Agent may enter into any amendment or other modification to any First Lien Security Document solely as such First
Lien Security Document relates to First Lien Obligations of a particular Class so long as (A) such amendment or modification is in accordance with the First Lien Credit Documents of such Class and (B) such amendment or modification does
not adversely affect the interests of the Secured Parties of any other Class. 
 (c) Each Authorized Representative agrees to
execute and deliver (at the sole cost and expense of the Grantors) all such consents, confirmations, authorizations and other instruments as shall reasonably be requested by the Collateral Agent to evidence and confirm any release of Shared
Collateral or amendment or modification to any First Lien Security Document provided for in this Section. 
 SECTION 2.06.
Certain Agreements with Respect to Bankruptcy and Insolvency Proceedings. (a) The Authorized Representative of each Class, for itself and on behalf of its Related Secured Parties, agrees that, if any Issuer or any other Grantor shall
become subject to a case (a “Bankruptcy Case”) under the Bankruptcy Code and shall, as debtor-in-possession, move for approval of financing (“DIP Financing”) to be provided by one or more lenders (the “DIP
Lenders”) under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any equivalent provision of any other Bankruptcy Law or the use of cash collateral under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code or any equivalent provision of any other Bankruptcy
Law, neither such Authorized Representative nor its Related Secured Parties will raise any objection to any such financing or to the Liens on the Shared Collateral securing any such financing (“DIP Financing Liens”) or to any use of
cash collateral that constitutes Shared Collateral, in each case unless the Applicable Authorized Representative shall then oppose or object to such DIP Financing or such DIP Financing Liens or such use of cash collateral (and (i) to the extent
that such DIP Financing Liens are senior to the Liens on any such Shared Collateral for the benefit of the Controlling Secured Parties, each Non-Controlling Secured Party will subordinate its Liens with respect to such Shared Collateral on the same
terms as the Liens of the Controlling Secured Parties (other than any Liens of any Controlling Secured Parties constituting DIP Financing Liens) are subordinated thereto, and (ii) to the extent that such DIP Financing Liens rank pari
passu with the Liens on any such Shared Collateral granted to secure the First Lien Obligations of the Controlling Secured Parties, each Non-Controlling Secured Party will confirm the priorities with respect to such Shared Collateral as set
forth herein), in each case so long as (A) the Secured Parties of such Class retain the benefit of their Liens on all such Shared Collateral subject to the DIP Financing Liens, including proceeds thereof arising after the commencement of the
Bankruptcy Case, with such Liens having the same priority with respect to Liens of the Secured Parties of any other Class (other than any Liens of the Secured Parties of such other Class constituting DIP Financing Liens) as existed prior to the
commencement of the Bankruptcy Case, (B) the Secured Parties of such Class are granted Liens on any additional collateral provided to the Secured Parties of any other Class as adequate protection or otherwise in connection with such DIP
Financing or use of cash collateral, 
  

 B-14 








 
with such Liens having the same priority with respect to Liens of the Secured Parties of any other Class (other than any Liens of the Secured Parties of such other Class constituting DIP
Financing Liens) as existed prior to the commencement of the Bankruptcy Case, (C) if any amount of such DIP Financing or cash collateral is applied to repay any First Lien Obligations, such amount is applied in accordance with
Section 2.01(b), and (D) if the Secured Parties of any Class are granted adequate protection, including in the form of periodic payments, in connection with such DIP Financing or use of cash collateral, the proceeds of such adequate
protection are applied in accordance with Section 2.01(b); provided that the Secured Parties of each Class shall have a right to object to the grant, as security for the DIP Financing, of a Lien on any Collateral subject to Liens in
favor of the Secured Parties of such Class or its Authorized Representative that shall not constitute Shared Collateral; and provided further that any Secured Party receiving adequate protection granted in connection with the DIP
Financing or such use of cash collateral shall not object to any other Secured Party receiving adequate protection comparable to any such adequate protection granted to such Secured Party. 

SECTION 2.07. Reinstatement. If, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise, all or part of any payment with respect
to the First Lien Obligations of any Class previously made shall be rescinded for any reason whatsoever (including an order or judgment for disgorgement of a preference under the Bankruptcy Code, or any similar law), then the terms and conditions of
Article II shall be fully applicable thereto until all the First Lien Obligations of such Class shall again have been paid in full in cash. 

SECTION 2.08. Insurance and Condemnation Awards. As between the Secured Parties, the Collateral Agent, acting at the direction of
the Applicable Authorized Representative, shall have the exclusive right, subject to the rights of the Grantors under the First Lien Security Documents, to settle and adjust claims in respect of Shared Collateral under policies of insurance covering
or constituting Shared Collateral and to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding, or any deed in lieu of condemnation, in respect of the Shared Collateral; provided that any Proceeds arising therefrom shall be
subject to Section 2.01(b). 
 SECTION 2.09. Refinancings. The First Lien Obligations of any Class may be
Refinanced, in whole or in part, in each case, without notice to, or the consent of, any Secured Party of any other Class, all without affecting the priorities provided for herein or the other provisions hereof; provided that nothing in this
Section shall affect any limitation on any such Refinancing that is set forth in the First Lien Credit Documents of any such other Class; and provided further that, if any obligations of the Grantors in respect of such Refinancing
Indebtedness shall be secured by Liens on any Shared Collateral, then such obligations and the holders thereof shall be subject to and bound by the provisions of this Agreement and the Authorized Representative of the holders of any such Refinancing
Indebtedness shall have executed an Additional Authorized Representative Joinder Agreement. 
  

 B-15 








 SECTION 2.10. Possessory Collateral Agent as Gratuitous Bailee for Perfection.
(a) The Collateral Agent agrees to hold any Shared Collateral constituting Possessory Collateral that is part of the Collateral in its possession or control (or in the possession or control of its agents or bailees) as gratuitous bailee for the
benefit of each other Secured Party and any assignee solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted in such Possessory Collateral, if any, pursuant to the applicable First Lien Security Documents, in each case subject to the
terms and conditions of this Section. Pending delivery to the Collateral Agent, each Authorized Representative agrees to hold any Shared Collateral constituting Possessory Collateral, from time to time in its possession, as gratuitous bailee for the
benefit of each other Secured Party and any assignee, solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted in such Possessory Collateral, if any, pursuant to the applicable First Lien Security Documents, in each case, subject to the
terms and conditions of this Section. 
 (b) The duties or responsibilities of the Collateral Agent and each Authorized
Representative under this Section shall be limited solely to holding any Shared Collateral constituting Possessory Collateral as gratuitous bailee for the benefit of each other Secured Party for purposes of perfecting the Lien held by such
Secured Parties therein. 
 ARTICLE III 

Determinations with Respect to Obligations and Liens 

Whenever, in connection with the exercise of its rights or the performance of its obligations hereunder, the Collateral Agent or the
Authorized Representative of any Class shall be required to determine the existence or amount of any First Lien Obligations of any Class, or the Shared Collateral subject to any Lien securing the First Lien Obligations of any Class (and whether such
Lien constitutes a valid and perfected Lien), it may request that such information be furnished to it in writing by the Authorized Representative of such Class and shall be entitled to make such determination on the basis of the information so
furnished; provided that if, notwithstanding such request, the Authorized Representative of the applicable Class shall fail or refuse reasonably promptly to provide the requested information, the requesting Collateral Agent or Authorized
Representative shall be entitled to make any such determination by such method as it may, in the exercise of its good faith judgment, determine, including by reliance upon an Officers’ Certificate. The Collateral Agent and each Authorized
Representative may rely conclusively, and shall be fully protected in so relying, on any determination made by it in accordance with the provisions of the preceding sentence (or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction) and shall
have no liability to any Grantor, any Secured Party or any other Person as a result of such determination or any action or not taken pursuant thereto.

 ARTICLE IV 

Concerning the Collateral Agent 

SECTION 4.01. Appointment and Authority. (a) Each of the Authorized Representatives, for itself and on behalf of its Related
Secured Parties, hereby irrevocably appoints The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. to act as the Collateral Agent hereunder and under each of the First Lien Security Documents, and authorizes the Collateral Agent to take such actions and
to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, including for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any Grantor to secure any of the First Lien
Obligations, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. In addition, to the extent required under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States, each of the Authorized Representatives, for itself and on
behalf of its Related Secured Parties, hereby grants to the Collateral Agent any required powers of attorney to execute any First Lien Security Document governed by the laws of such jurisdiction on such Secured Party’s behalf. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the Collateral Agent is hereby expressly authorized to execute any and all documents (including releases) with respect to the Shared Collateral, and the rights of the Secured Parties with respect thereto, as
contemplated by and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the First Lien Security Documents. 
 (b) Each of
the Authorized Representatives, for itself and on behalf of its Related Secured Parties, acknowledges and agrees that the Collateral Agent shall be entitled, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of or deal
with any Shared Collateral as provided herein and in the First Lien Security Documents, without regard to any rights, remedies or powers to which the Non-Controlling Secured Parties would otherwise be entitled to as a result of their Non-Controlling
Secured Obligations. Without limiting the foregoing, each of the Authorized Representatives, for itself and on behalf of its Related Secured Parties, agrees that none of the Collateral Agent, the Applicable Authorized Representative or any other
Secured Party shall have any duty or obligation first to marshal or realize upon any type of Shared Collateral (or any other Collateral securing any of the First Lien Obligations), or to sell, dispose of or otherwise liquidate all or any portion of
such Shared Collateral (or any other Collateral securing any First Lien Obligations), in any manner that would maximize the return to the Non-Controlling Secured Parties, notwithstanding that the order and timing of any such realization, sale,
disposition or liquidation may affect the amount of proceeds actually received by the Non-Controlling Secured Parties from such realization, sale, disposition or liquidation. Each of the Authorized Representatives, for itself and on behalf of its
Related Secured Parties, waives any claim they may now or hereafter have against the Collateral Agent or the Authorized Representative or any Secured Party of any other Class arising out of (i) any actions that the Collateral Agent or any such
Authorized Representative or Secured Party takes or omits to take (including actions with respect to the creation, perfection or continuation of Liens on any Collateral, actions with respect to the foreclosure upon, sale or other disposition,
release or depreciation of, or failure to realize upon, any of the Collateral and actions with respect to the collection of any claim for all or any part of the First Lien Obligations from any account debtor, guarantor or any other party) in
accordance with the First Lien Security Documents or any other agreement related thereto or to the collection of the First Lien Obligations or the valuation, use, protection or release of any security for the First Lien Obligations, (ii) any
election by any Applicable Authorized Representative or Secured Parties, in any 
  

 B-17 








 
proceeding instituted under the Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or (iii) subject to Section 2.06, any borrowing by, or grant of a
security interest or administrative expense priority under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any equivalent provision of any other Bankruptcy Law by, the Issuer, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries, as debtor-in-possession.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall not accept any Shared Collateral in full or partial satisfaction of any First Lien Obligations pursuant to Section 9-620 of the Uniform Commercial Code of any
jurisdiction without the consent of each Authorized Representative representing Secured Parties for whom such Collateral constitutes Shared Collateral. 

(c) Each of the Authorized Representatives, for itself and on behalf of its Related Secured Parties, acknowledges and agrees that, upon
any other obligations being designated hereunder as Additional First Lien Obligations or any other Person becoming an Additional Authorized Representative or any other Persons becoming Additional Secured Parties, the Collateral Agent will continue
to act in its capacity as Collateral Agent in respect of the then existing Authorized Representatives and Secured Parties and such Additional Authorized Representative and Additional Secured Parties. 

SECTION 4.02. Rights as a Secured Party. (a) The Person serving as the Collateral Agent hereunder shall have the same rights
and powers in its capacity as a Secured Party of any Class as any other Secured Party of such Class and may exercise the same as though it were not the Collateral Agent and the term “Secured Party”, “Secured Parties”,
“Indenture Secured Party”, “Indenture Secured Parties”, “Additional Secured Party” or “Additional Secured Parties”, as applicable, shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise
requires, include the Person serving as the Collateral Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. The Person serving as the Collateral Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other
advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Issuer, the Company, or any of their respective Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Collateral Agent hereunder and without any duty to
account therefor to any other Secured Party. 
 SECTION 4.03. Exculpatory Provisions. The Collateral Agent shall not have
any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other First Lien Security Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Collateral Agent: 

(i) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing; 
 (ii) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any
discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the First Lien Security Documents that the Collateral Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Applicable Authorized Representative;
provided that the Collateral Agent 
  

 B-18 








 
shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Collateral Agent to liability or that is contrary to any First Lien Security Document
or applicable law; 
 (iii) shall not, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement and in the First Lien
Security Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Issuer, the Company, or any of their respective Subsidiaries or any of their respective Affiliates that is
communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Collateral Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity; 

(iv) shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (A) with the consent or at the request of the
Applicable Authorized Representative or (B) in the absence of its own gross negligence or wilful misconduct or (C) in reliance on an Officers’ Certificate stating that such action is permitted by the terms of this Agreement;

 (v) shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default under any First Lien Credit
Documents of any Class unless and until notice describing such Default or Event Default is given to the Collateral Agent by the Authorized Representative of such Class or the Issuer in accordance with the applicable First Lien Credit Document; and

 (vi) shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (A) any statement,
warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any First Lien Security Document, (B) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith,
(C) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (D) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or
genuineness of this Agreement, any First Lien Security Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the validity, attachment, creation, perfection, priority or enforceability of any Lien purported to be created by the First Lien
Security Documents, (E) the value or the sufficiency of any Collateral for First Lien Obligations of any Class or (F) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in any First Lien Credit Document, other than to confirm receipt of items
expressly required to be delivered to the Collateral Agent. 
 SECTION 4.04. Reliance by Collateral Agent. The Collateral
Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall not incur any liability for relying, upon any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting
or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Collateral Agent also shall be entitled to rely, and shall not incur any liability for relying, upon any statement
made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person. The Collateral Agent may consult with legal 

 

 B-19 








 
counsel (who may be counsel for the Issuer, any other Grantor or any Authorized Representative), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action
taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 
 SECTION 4.05.
Delegation of Duties. The Collateral Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other First Lien Security Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Collateral
Agent and the Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence of any such sub-agent appointed with due care. The Collateral Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and
powers by or through their respective Affiliates. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Affiliates of the Collateral Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities as
the Collateral Agent. 
 SECTION 4.06. Resignation of Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent may at any time give notice
of its resignation as Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the First Lien Security Documents to each Authorized Representative and the Issuer. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Applicable Authorized Representative shall have
the right, in consultation with the Issuer, to appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Applicable Authorized Representative and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring
Collateral Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Collateral Agent may, on behalf of the Secured Parties, appoint a successor Collateral Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Collateral Agent
shall notify each Authorized Representative and the Issuer that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (a) the retiring Collateral Agent
shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the First Lien Security Documents (except that in the case of any Collateral held by the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties under any First Lien Security
Document, the retiring Collateral Agent shall continue to hold such Collateral solely for purposes of maintaining the perfection of the security interests of the Secured Parties therein until such time as a successor Collateral Agent is appointed
but with no obligation to take any further action at the request of the Applicable Authorized Representative or any other Secured Parties) and (b) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the
Collateral Agent shall instead be made by or to each Authorized Representative directly, until such time as the Applicable Authorized Representative appoints a successor Collateral Agent as provided above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s
appointment as Collateral Agent hereunder and under the First Lien Security Documents, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Collateral Agent, and the
retiring Collateral Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the First Lien Security Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above). Notwithstanding the resignation of the Collateral
Agent hereunder and under the First Lien Security Documents, the provisions of this Article and the equivalent provision of any Additional First Lien Document shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Collateral Agent, its sub-agents
and their 
  

 B-20 








 
respective Related Secured Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Collateral Agent was acting as Collateral Agent. Upon any notice of
resignation of the Collateral Agent hereunder and under the First Lien Security Documents, the Issuer agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to transfer (and maintain the validity and priority of) the Liens in favor of the retiring Collateral
Agent under the First Lien Security Documents to the successor Collateral Agent. 
 SECTION 4.07. Collateral Matters.
Each of the Secured Parties irrevocably authorizes the Collateral Agent, at its option and in its discretion: 

(a) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any First Lien Security Document
in accordance with Sections 2.03 and 2.05 or upon receipt of an Officers’ Certificate stating that such release is permitted by the terms of the First Lien Credit Documents; and 

(b) to release any Grantor from its obligations under the First Lien Security Documents upon receipt of an Officers’
Certificate and Opinion of Counsel stating that such release is permitted by the terms of the First Lien Credit Documents.

duty to disclose to any Secured Party of any other Class any information relating to the Issuer, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries, or any other circumstance bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of any of the First Lien Obligations,
that is known or becomes known to any of them or any of their Affiliates. If the Collateral Agent or the Authorized Representative or any Secured Party of any Class, in its sole discretion, undertakes at any time or from time to time to provide any
such information to, as the case may be, the Authorized Representative or any Secured Party of any other Class, it shall be under no obligation (i) to make, and shall not be deemed to have made, any express or implied representation or
warranty, including with respect to the accuracy, completeness, truthfulness or validity of the information so provided, (ii) to provide any additional information or to provide any such information on any subsequent occasion or (iii) to
undertake any investigation. 
 SECTION 5.02. No Warranties or Liability. (a) Each Authorized Representative, for
itself and on behalf of its Related Secured Parties, acknowledges and agrees that neither the Collateral Agent nor the Authorized Representative or any Secured Party of any other Class has made any express or implied representation or warranty,
including with respect to the execution, validity, legality, completeness, collectability or enforceability of any of the First Lien Credit Documents, the ownership of any Shared Collateral or the perfection or priority of any Liens thereon. The
Authorized Representative and the Secured Parties of any Class will be entitled to manage and supervise their loans and other extensions of credit in the manner determined by them. 

 

 B-21 








 (b) No Authorized Representative or Secured Parties of any Class shall have any express or
implied duty to the Authorized Representative or any Secured Party of any other Class to act or refrain from acting in a manner that allows, or results in, the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default under any First Lien Credit
Document (other than, in each case, this Agreement), regardless of any knowledge thereof that they may have or be charged with. 

ARTICLE VI 

Additional First Lien Obligations 

The Issuer may, at any time and from time to time, subject to any limitations contained in the First Lien Credit Documents in effect at
such time, designate additional Indebtedness and related obligations that are, or are to be, secured by Liens on any assets of the Issuer or any other Grantor that would, if such Liens were granted, constitute Shared Collateral as “Additional
First Lien Obligations” by delivering to the Collateral Agent and each Authorized Representative party hereto at such time an Officers’ Certificate: 

(a) describing the Indebtedness and other obligations being designated as Additional First Lien Obligations, and including
a statement of the maximum aggregate outstanding principal amount of such Indebtedness as of the date of such certificate; 

(b) setting forth the Additional First Lien Documents under which such Additional First Lien Obligations are issued or
incurred or the guarantees of such Additional First Lien Obligations are, or are to be, created, and attaching copies of such Additional First Lien Documents as each Grantor has executed and delivered to the Person that serves as the administrative

the closing date of such Additional First Lien Obligations, certified as being true and complete by an Officers’ Certificate; 

(c) identifying the Person that serves as the Additional Authorized Representative; 

(d) certifying that the incurrence of such Additional First Lien Obligations, the creation of the Liens securing such
Additional First Lien Obligations and the designation of such Additional First Lien Obligations as “Additional First Lien Obligations” hereunder do not violate or result in a default under any provision of any First Lien Credit Documents
in effect at such time; 
  

 B-22 








 (e) certifying that the Additional First Lien Documents authorize the
Additional Authorized Representative to become a party hereto by executing and delivering an Additional Authorized Representative Joinder Agreement and provide that upon such execution and delivery, such Additional First Lien Obligations and the
holders thereof shall become subject to and bound by the provisions of this Agreement; and 
 (f) attaching a
fully completed Authorized Representative Joinder Agreement executed and delivered by the Additional Authorized Representative. 

Upon the delivery of such certificate and the related attachments as provided above, the obligations designated in such notice as
“Additional First Lien Obligations” shall become Additional First Lien Obligations for all purposes of this Agreement.

the part of any party hereto in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or
power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the parties hereto are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver

hereby authorized to enter without the consent of any other Secured Party), at the request of the Collateral Agent, any Authorized Representative or the Issuer, into such amendments or modifications of this Agreement as are reasonably necessary to
reflect such Refinancing or such incurrence and are reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and each such Authorized Representative; provided, however, that in entering into any such amendments or modifications of this
Agreement the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to receive, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, the documents specified under Section 9.06 of the Indenture.

which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a

 SECTION 7.06. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining
provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or
unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions. 

SECTION 7.07. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New
York.

behalf of itself and the Junior Priority Secured Parties acknowledges that the terms of the First Priority Obligations may be modified, extended or amended from time to time, and that the aggregate amount of the First Priority Obligations may be
increased, replaced or refinanced, in each event, without notice to or consent by the Junior Priority Secured Parties and without affecting the provisions hereof. The lien priorities provided in Section 2.1 shall not be altered or otherwise
affected by any such amendment, modification, supplement, extension, repayment, reborrowing, increase, replacement, renewal, restatement or refinancing of the First Priority Obligations, or any portion thereof, or by any amendment, modification,
supplement, extension, repayment, reborrowing, increase, replacement, renewal, restatement or refinancing of the Junior Priority Obligations, or any portion thereof. 

2.3 Agreements Regarding Actions to Perfect Liens. (a) The Junior Priority Representative on behalf of itself and the Junior
Priority Secured Parties agrees that UCC-1 financing statements, patent, trademark or copyright filings or other filings or recordings filed or recorded by or on behalf of the Junior Priority Representative shall be in form satisfactory to the First
Priority Representative. 
 (b) The Junior Priority Representative agrees on behalf of itself and the Junior Priority Secured
Parties that all Junior Priority Security Documents entered into on or about the date hereof shall contain the following notation: “The lien and security interest created by this Agreement on the property described herein is junior and
subordinate, in accordance with the provisions of the Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement dated as of [                    ], among The Bank of New
York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., [        ], Rotech Healthcare Inc. and the other Grantors referred to therein, as amended from time to time, to the lien and security interest on such property created by any
similar instrument now or hereafter granted to The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as collateral agent under the First Priority Documents, and its successors and assigns, in such property.” The Junior Priority Representative agrees
on behalf of itself and the Junior Priority Secured Parties that all other Junior Priority Security Documents shall bear an identical or, in the event that the Existing First Priority Agreement is no longer extant or The Bank of New York Mellon
Trust Company, N.A. shall cease to be the First Priority Representative, a substantially similar notation. 
 (c) The First
Priority Representative hereby agrees that, to the extent that it holds, or a third party holds on its behalf, physical possession of or “control” (as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code) (or any similar concept under foreign law) over
Shared Collateral pursuant to the First Priority Security Documents, such possession or control is also for the benefit of the Junior Priority Representative and the Junior Priority Secured Parties solely to the extent required to perfect their
security interest in such Shared Collateral (such bailment being intended, among other things, to satisfy the requirements of Sections 8-106(d)(3), 8-301(a)(2) and 9-313(c) of the Uniform Commercial Code). Nothing in the preceding sentence shall be
construed to impose any duty on the First 
  

 C-8 








 
Priority Representative (or any third party acting on its behalf) with respect to such Shared Collateral or provide the Junior Priority Representative or any Junior Priority Secured Party with
any rights with respect to such Shared Collateral beyond those specified in this Agreement and the Junior Priority Security Documents; provided that subsequent to the occurrence of the First Priority Obligations Payment Date, the First
Priority Representative shall (i) deliver to the Junior Priority Representative, at the Issuer’s sole cost and expense, the Shared Collateral in its possession or control together with any necessary endorsements to the extent required by
the Junior Priority Documents or (ii) direct and deliver such Shared Collateral as a court of competent jurisdiction otherwise directs; provided, however, that the provisions of this Agreement are intended solely to govern the
respective Lien priorities as between the First Priority Secured Parties and the Junior Priority Secured Parties and shall not impose on the First Priority Secured Parties any obligations in respect of the disposition of any Shared Collateral (or
any proceeds thereof) that would conflict with prior perfected Liens or any claims thereon in favor of any other Person that is not a Secured Party. 

2.4 No New Liens. So long as the First Priority Obligations Payment Date has not occurred, the parties hereto agree that
(a) there shall be no Lien, and no Grantor shall have any right to create any Lien, on any assets of any Grantor securing any Junior Priority Obligation if those same assets are not subject to, and do not become subject to, a Lien securing the
First Priority Obligations and (b) if any Junior Priority Secured Party shall acquire or hold any Lien on any assets of any Grantor securing any Junior Priority Obligation, which assets are not also subject to the first-priority Lien of the
First Priority Representative under the First Priority Documents, then the Junior Priority Representative shall be deemed to also hold and have held such Lien for the benefit of the First Priority Secured Parties and shall promptly notify the First
Priority Representative of the existence of such Lien and, upon demand by the First Priority Representative, will without the need for any further consent of any Junior Priority Secured Party, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any other
Junior Priority Document, either (i) release such Lien or (ii) assign it to the First Priority Representative as security for the First Priority Obligations (in which case the Junior Priority Representative may retain a junior lien on such
assets subject to the terms hereof). To the extent that the foregoing provisions are not complied with for any reason, without limiting any other rights and remedies available to the First Priority Secured Parties, the Junior Priority Representative
and the Junior Priority Secured Parties agree that any amounts received by or distributed to any of them pursuant to or as a result of Liens granted in contravention of this Section 2.4 shall be subject to Section 4.1. 

2.5 No Duties of First Priority Representative. Neither the First Priority Representative nor any First Priority Secured Party
will have any duties or other obligations to any Junior Priority Secured Party with respect to the Shared Collateral, other than, in the case of the First Priority Representative, to transfer to the Junior Priority Representative any such Shared
Collateral in which the Junior Priority Representative continues to hold a security interest and that is remaining following (x) any sale, transfer or other disposition of such Shared Collateral (in each case, unless the Lien securing the
Junior Priority Obligations on all such Shared Collateral is terminated and released prior to or concurrently with such sale, transfer, disposition, payment or 

 

 C-9 








 
satisfaction) and (y) the payment and satisfaction in full of such First Priority Obligations and termination of any commitment to extend credit that would constitute such First Priority
Obligations, or to the extent the First Priority Representative is in possession of any part of such Shared Collateral after such payment and satisfaction in full and termination, the part thereof remaining, in each case without representation or
warranty on the part of the First Priority Representative or any holder of First Priority Obligations. Without limiting the foregoing, neither the First Priority Representative nor any holder of any First Priority Obligations will have any duty or
obligation to marshal or realize upon the Shared Collateral, or to sell, dispose or otherwise liquidate all or any portion of the Shared Collateral, in any manner that would maximize the return to the Junior Priority Secured Parties notwithstanding
that the order and timing of any such realization, sale, disposition or liquidation may affect the amount of the proceeds actually received by the Junior Priority Secured Parties from such realization, sale, disposition or liquidation. The Junior
Priority Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Junior Priority Secured Party, waives any claim the Junior Priority Representative or such Junior Priority Secured Party may now or hereafter have against the First Priority Representative or
any First Priority Secured Party (or their representatives) arising out of any actions which the First Priority Representative or the First Priority Secured Parties take or omit to take (including actions with respect to the creation, perfection or
continuation of Liens on any Shared Collateral, actions with respect to the foreclosure upon, sale, release or depreciation of, or failure to realize upon, any of the Shared Collateral and actions with respect to the collection of any claim for all
or any part of the First Priority Obligations from any account debtor, guarantor or any other party) in accordance with the First Priority Security Documents or any other agreement related thereto or to the collection of the First Priority
Obligations or the valuation, use, protection or release of any Shared Collateral. 
 2.6 Further Assurances. Each First
Priority Representative, for itself and on behalf of the First Priority Secured Parties, and the Junior Priority Representative, for itself and on behalf of the Junior Priority Secured Parties, and each Grantor party hereto, for itself and on behalf
of its subsidiaries, agrees that it will execute, or will cause to be executed, any and all further documents, agreements and instruments, and take all such further actions, as may be required under any applicable law, or which the First Priority
Representative or the Junior Priority Representative may reasonably request, to effectuate the terms of this Agreement, including the relative Lien priorities provided for herein. 

SECTION 3. Enforcement Rights. 

3.1 Exclusive Enforcement. Until the First Priority Obligations Payment Date has occurred, whether or not an Insolvency Proceeding
has been commenced by or against any Grantor, the First Priority Secured Parties shall have the exclusive right to take and continue any Enforcement Action and make determinations regarding the release, dispositions or restrictions with respect to
the Shared Collateral, without any consultation with or consent of any Junior Priority Secured Party, but subject to the proviso set forth in Section 5.1. In exercising rights and remedies with respect to the Shared Collateral, the First
Priority Secured Parties may enforce the provisions of the First Priority Documents and exercise remedies thereunder, all in such order and in such 

 

 C-10 








 
manner as they may determine in the exercise of their sole discretion. Such exercise and enforcement shall include the rights of an agent appointed by any of them to sell or otherwise dispose of
the Shared Collateral upon foreclosure, to incur expenses in connection with such sale or disposition and to exercise all rights and remedies of a secured creditor under the Uniform Commercial Code and of a secured creditor under the Bankruptcy Law
of any applicable jurisdiction. 
 3.2 Standstill and Waivers. The Junior Priority Representative, on behalf of itself
and the Junior Priority Secured Parties, agrees that, until the First Priority Obligations Payment Date has occurred, subject to the proviso set forth in Section 5.1: 

(a) they will not take or cause to be taken any action, the purpose or effect of which is, or could be, to make any Lien
in respect of any Junior Priority Obligation pari passu with or senior to, or to give any Junior Priority Secured Party any preference or priority relative to, the Liens with respect to the First Priority Obligations or the First
Priority Secured Parties with respect to any of the Shared Collateral; 
 (b) they will not challenge or question
in any proceeding the validity or enforceability of any security interest in the Shared Collateral in favor of any First Priority Obligations, the validity, attachment, perfection or priority of any First Priority Lien or the validity or
enforceability of the priorities, rights or duties established by (or other provisions of) this Agreement; 
 (c)
they will not contest, oppose, object to, interfere with, challenge, hinder or delay, in any manner, whether by judicial proceedings (including the filing of an Insolvency Proceeding) or otherwise, any foreclosure, sale, lease, exchange, transfer or
other disposition of the Shared Collateral or any other First Priority Collateral by any First Priority Secured Party or any other Enforcement Action taken (or any forbearance from taking any Enforcement Action) by or on behalf of any First Priority
Secured Party; 
 (d) they have no right to (i) direct either the First Priority Representative or any First
Priority Secured Party to exercise any right, remedy or power with respect to the Shared Collateral or pursuant to the First Priority Security Documents or (ii) consent or object to the exercise by the First Priority Representative or any First
Priority Secured Party of any right, remedy or power with respect to the Shared Collateral or pursuant to the First Priority Security Documents or to the timing or manner in which any such right is exercised or not exercised (or, to the extent they
may have any such right described in this clause (d), whether as a junior lien creditor or otherwise, they hereby irrevocably waive such right); 

(e) they will not object to the forbearance by the First Priority Secured Parties from bringing or pursuing any
foreclosure proceeding or action or any other exercise of any rights or remedies relating to the Shared Collateral or any other First Priority Collateral; 
  

 C-11 








 (f) they will not oppose or seek to challenge any claim by any First
Priority Secured Party for allowance in any judicial or Insolvency Proceedings consisting of post-petition interest, fees or expenses (it being understood that the First Priority Secured Parties will not contest any similar action by any Junior
Priority Secured Party); 
 (g) they will not institute any suit or other proceeding or assert in any suit,
Insolvency Proceeding or other proceeding any claim against any First Priority Secured Party seeking damages from or other relief by way of specific performance, instructions or otherwise, with respect to, and no First Priority Secured Party shall
be liable for, any action taken or omitted to be taken by any First Priority Secured Party with respect to the Shared Collateral or pursuant to the First Priority Documents; 

(h) they will not make any judicial or nonjudicial claim or demand or commence any judicial or non-judicial proceedings
against any Grantor or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates under or with respect to any Junior Priority Security Document seeking payment or damages from or other relief by way of specific performance, instructions or otherwise under or with
respect to any Junior Priority Security Document or exercise any right, remedy or power under or with respect to, or otherwise take any action to enforce, any Junior Priority Security Document; 

(i) they will not commence judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure proceedings with respect to, seek to have a trustee,
receiver, liquidator or similar official appointed for or over, or attempt any action to take possession of any Shared Collateral, or exercise any right, remedy or power with respect to, or otherwise take any action to enforce their interest in or
realize upon, the Shared Collateral or pursuant to the Junior Priority Security Documents; 
 (j) they will not
seek, and hereby waive any right, to have the Shared Collateral or any part thereof marshaled upon any foreclosure or other disposition of the Shared Collateral and hereby waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any right to demand, request,
plead or otherwise assert or claim the benefit of, any marshalling, appraisal, valuation or other similar right that may otherwise be available under applicable law with respect to the Shared Collateral or any other similar rights a junior secured
creditor may have under applicable law; and 
 (k) they will not attempt, directly or indirectly, whether by
judicial proceedings or otherwise, to challenge the enforceability of any provision of this Agreement. 
 3.3 Judgment
Creditors. In the event that any Junior Priority Secured Party becomes a judgment lien creditor as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor, such judgment lien shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement for all
purposes (including in relation to the First Priority Liens and the First Priority Obligations) to the same extent as all other Liens securing the Junior Priority Obligations are subject to the terms of this Agreement. 

 

 C-12 








 3.4 Cooperation. The Junior Priority Agent, on behalf of itself and the Junior
Priority Secured Parties, agrees that each of them shall take such actions as the First Priority Representative shall request in connection with the exercise by the First Priority Secured Parties of their rights set forth herein. 

3.5 No Additional Rights For the Grantors Hereunder. Except as provided in Section 3.6, if any First Priority Secured Party
or Junior Priority Secured Party shall enforce its rights or remedies in violation of the terms of this Agreement, no Grantor shall be entitled to use such violation as a defense to any action by any First Priority Secured Party or Junior Priority
Secured Party, or to assert such violation as a counterclaim or basis for set off or recoupment against any First Priority Secured Party or Junior Priority Secured Party. 

3.6 Actions Upon Breach. (a) If any Junior Priority Secured Party, contrary to this Agreement, commences or participates in
any action or proceeding against any Grantor or the Shared Collateral, such Grantor, with the prior written consent of the First Priority Representative, may interpose as a defense or dilatory plea the making of this Agreement, and any First
Priority Secured Party may intervene and interpose such defense or plea in its or their name or in the name of such Grantor. 

(b) Should any Junior Priority Secured Party, contrary to this Agreement, in any way take, attempt to take or threaten to take any action
with respect to the Shared Collateral (including any attempt to realize upon or enforce any remedy with respect to this Agreement), or take any other action in violation of this Agreement, or fail to take any action required by this Agreement, this
Agreement shall create an irrebuttable presumption and admission by such Junior Priority Secured Party that any First Priority Secured Party (in its own name or in the name of the relevant Grantor) or the relevant Grantor may obtain relief against
such Junior Priority Secured Party by injunction, specific performance and/or other appropriate equitable relief, it being understood and agreed by the Junior Priority Representative on behalf of each Junior Priority Secured Party that (i) the
First Priority Secured Parties’ damages from such actions of any Junior Priority Secured Party may at that time be difficult to ascertain and may be irreparable and the harm to the First Priority Secured Parties may not be adequately
compensated in damages and (ii) each Junior Priority Secured Party waives any defense that the Grantors and/or the First Priority Secured Parties cannot demonstrate damage and/or be made whole by the awarding of damages. 

SECTION 4. Application of Proceeds of Shared Collateral; Dispositions and Releases of Shared Collateral; Inspection and Insurance.

 4.1 Application of Proceeds; Turnover Provisions. All proceeds of Shared Collateral (including any interest earned
thereon) resulting from the sale, collection or other disposition of Shared Collateral resulting from any Enforcement Action or that occurs after any Event of Default (as defined in the First Priority Documents), whether or

  

 C-13 








 
not pursuant to an Insolvency Proceeding, or during the pendency of any Insolvency Proceeding shall be distributed as follows: first to the First Priority Representative for application to
the First Priority Obligations in accordance with the terms of the First Priority Documents, until the First Priority Obligations Payment Date has occurred and thereafter, to the Junior Priority Representative for application in accordance
with the terms of the Junior Priority Documents. If any Junior Priority Secured Party obtains possession of the Shared Collateral or realizes any proceeds or payment in respect of the Shared Collateral, pursuant to any Junior Priority Security
Documents or by the exercise of any rights available to such Junior Priority Secured Party under applicable law or in any Insolvency Proceeding or through any other exercise of remedies, at any time when any First Priority Obligations secured or
intended to be secured by such Shared Collateral remains outstanding or any commitment to extend credit that would constitute First Priority Obligations secured or intended to be secured by such Shared Collateral remains in effect, then such Junior
Priority Secured Party will hold such Shared Collateral, proceeds or payments in trust for the First Priority Representative and the holders of any First Priority Obligations and transfer such Shared Collateral, proceeds or payments, as the case may
be, to the First Priority Representative. If, at any time, all or part of any payment with respect to any First Priority Obligations previously made are rescinded for any reason whatsoever, each Junior Priority Secured Party will promptly pay over
to the First Priority Representative any payment received by it in respect of any such Shared Collateral and shall promptly turn any such Shared Collateral then held by it over to the First Priority Representative, and the provisions set forth in
this Agreement shall be reinstated as if such payment had not been made, until the payment and satisfaction in full all of such First Priority Obligations. 

4.2 Releases of Junior Priority Lien. (a) Upon (i) any sale or other disposition of Shared Collateral permitted pursuant
to the terms of the First Priority Documents that results in the release of the First Priority Lien on any Shared Collateral (including any sale or other disposition pursuant to any Enforcement Action) or (ii) any other release of Shared
Collateral from the Lien under the First Priority Security Documents that is permitted pursuant to the terms of the First Priority Documents, the Junior Priority Lien on such Shared Collateral (excluding any portion of the proceeds of such Shared
Collateral remaining after the First Priority Obligations Payment Date occurs) shall be automatically and unconditionally released with no further consent or action of any Person. 

(b) The Junior Priority Representative shall promptly execute and deliver such release documents and instruments and shall take such
further actions as the First Priority Representative shall request to evidence any release of the Junior Priority Lien described in paragraph (a). The Junior Priority Representative hereby appoints the First Priority Representative and any officer
or duly authorized person of the First Priority Representative, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power of attorney in the place and stead of the Junior Priority Representative and in the
name of the Junior Priority Representative or in the First Priority Representative’s own name, from time to time, in the First Priority Representative’s sole discretion, for the purposes of carrying out the terms of this Section 4.2,
to take any and all appropriate action and to execute and deliver any and all 
  

 C-14 








 
documents and instruments as may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Section 4.2, including any financing statements, endorsements, assignments, releases or other
documents or instruments of transfer (which appointment, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable). 
 4.3 Inspection
Rights and Insurance. (a) Any First Priority Secured Party and its representatives and invitees may at any time inspect, repossess, remove and otherwise deal with the Shared Collateral, and the First Priority Representative may advertise
and conduct public auctions or private sales of the Shared Collateral, in each case without notice to, the involvement of or interference by any Junior Priority Secured Party or liability to any Junior Priority Secured Party. 

(b) Until the First Priority Obligations Payment Date has occurred, the First Priority Representative will have the sole and exclusive
right (i) to be named as additional insured and loss payee under any insurance policies maintained from time to time by any Grantor (except that the Junior Priority Representative shall have the right to be named as additional insured and loss
payee so long as its second lien status is identified in a manner satisfactory to the First Priority Representative), (ii) to adjust or settle any insurance policy or claim covering the Shared Collateral in the event of any loss thereunder and
(iii) to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding affecting the Shared Collateral. 
 4.4
Rights as Unsecured Creditors. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Junior Priority Representative and the Junior Priority Secured Parties may exercise rights and remedies as unsecured creditors against any Grantor
in respect of the Junior Priority Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Junior Priority Documents, including the acceleration of any Indebtedness or other obligations owing under the Junior Priority Documents or the demand for payment
under the guarantee in respect thereof, in each case in accordance with the terms of the applicable Junior Priority Documents and applicable law and not otherwise inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall
prohibit the receipt by any Junior Priority Representative or any Junior Priority Secured Party of the required payments of interest and principal so long as such receipt is not the direct or indirect result of (a) the exercise by any Junior
Priority Representative or any Junior Priority Secured Party of rights or remedies as a secured creditor in respect of Shared Collateral or other collateral or (b) the enforcement in contravention of this Agreement of any Lien in respect of
Junior Priority Liens held by any of them. Nothing in this Agreement impairs or otherwise adversely affects any rights or remedies the First Priority Representative or the First Priority Secured Parties may have with respect to the First Priority
Collateral. 
 SECTION 5. Insolvency Proceedings. 

5.1 Filing of Motions. Until the First Priority Obligations Payment Date has occurred, the Junior Priority Representative agrees on
behalf of itself and the Junior Priority Secured Parties that no Junior Priority Secured Party shall, in or in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding, file any pleading or motion, take any position at any

  

 C-15 








 
hearing or proceeding of any nature, or otherwise take any action whatsoever, in each case in respect of any of the Shared Collateral, including with respect to the determination of any Liens or
claims (including the validity and enforceability thereof) held by the First Priority Representative or any First Priority Secured Party or the value of any claims of such parties under Section 506(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise;
provided that (a) in any Insolvency Proceeding, the Junior Priority Representative may file a proof of claim or statement of interest with respect to the applicable Junior Priority Liens, (b) the Junior Priority Representative may
take any such action (not adverse to the First Priority Liens on the Shared Collateral securing the First Priority Obligations, or the rights of either the First Priority Representative or the First Priority Secured Parties to exercise remedies in
respect thereof) to the extent required to create, prove, perfect, preserve or protect (but not enforce) its rights in, and perfection and priority of its Liens on, the Shared Collateral, (c) in any Insolvency Proceeding, the Junior Priority
Representative may file any necessary or responsive pleading in opposition to any motion, adversary proceeding or other pleading filed by any Person objecting to or otherwise seeking disallowance of the claim or Lien of such Junior Priority
Representative or any Junior Priority Secured Party, (d) the Junior Priority Representative may file any pleadings, objections, motions or agreements which assert rights available to unsecured creditors arising under any Insolvency Proceeding
or applicable non-bankruptcy law and (e) the Junior Priority Representative and each Junior Priority Secured Party may vote on any plan of reorganization in any Insolvency Proceedings; provided, however, that in the case of each
of clauses (a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) above, such actions are permitted only to the extent such actions are not inconsistent with, and could not result in a resolution inconsistent with, the terms of this Agreement. 

5.2 Financing Matters. If any Grantor becomes subject to any Insolvency Proceeding, and if the First Priority Representative
(acting at the direction of the requisite First Priority Secured Parties) desires to permit the use of cash collateral or to permit any Grantor to obtain financing under Section 363 or Section 364 of Title 11 of the United States Code or
any similar provision in any Bankruptcy Law (“DIP Financing”), then the Junior Priority Representative, for itself and on behalf of each applicable Junior Priority Secured Party, agrees that it will raise no objection to, and will
not support any objection to, and will not otherwise contest such use of cash collateral or DIP Financing and will not request adequate protection or any other relief in connection therewith (except to the extent permitted by Section 5.4) and,
to the extent the Liens securing the First Priority Obligations are subordinated or pari passu with such DIP Financing, will subordinate the Liens in the Shared Collateral in favor of the Junior Priority Obligations to such DIP Financing (and all
Obligations relating thereto) on the same basis as they are subordinated to the First Priority Obligations. The Junior Priority Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Junior Priority Secured Party, agrees that, in the event of an
Insolvency Proceeding, it will raise no objection to, and will not support any objection to, and will not otherwise contest (a) any motion for relief from the automatic stay or from any injunction against foreclosure or enforcement in respect
of First Priority Obligations made by the First Priority Representative or any First Priority Secured Party, (b) any lawful exercise by the First Priority Representative or any other First Priority Secured Party of the right to credit bid any
First Priority Obligations at any sale in foreclosure of First Priority Collateral, (c) any other request for judicial relief made in any court by the 

 

 C-16 








 
First Priority Representative or any other First Priority Secured Party relating to the lawful enforcement of any First Priority Lien and (d) any order relating to a sale of assets of any
Grantor for which the First Priority Representative has consented that provides, to the extent the sale is to be free and clear of Liens, that the Liens securing the First Priority Obligations and the Second Priority Obligations will attach to the
proceeds of the sale on the same basis of priority as the existing Liens in accordance with this Agreement. 
 5.3 Relief
From the Automatic Stay. The Junior Priority Representative agrees, on behalf of itself and the Junior Priority Secured Parties, that none of them will seek relief from the automatic stay or from any other stay in any Insolvency Proceeding or
take any action in derogation thereof, in each case in respect of any Shared Collateral, without the prior written consent of the First Priority Representative and the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Notes. 

5.4 Adequate Protection. The Junior Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the Junior Priority Secured Parties, agrees
that none of them shall object to, contest, or support any other Person objecting to or contesting (a) any request by the First Priority Representative or the First Priority Secured Parties for adequate protection or any adequate protection
provided to the First Priority Representative or the First Priority Secured Parties, (b) any objection by the First Priority Representative or any First Priority Secured Parties to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on a claim of a
lack of adequate protection or (c) the payment of interest, fees, expenses, costs, charges or other amounts to the First Priority Representative or any First Priority Secured Party under Section 506(b) or 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or
otherwise. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 5.4 and in Section 5.2(b) (but subject to all other provisions of this Agreement, including Sections 5.2(a) and 5.3), in any Insolvency Proceeding, (i) if the First
Priority Secured Parties (or any subset thereof) are granted adequate protection that includes additional collateral (with replacement Liens on such additional collateral) in connection with any DIP Financing or use of cash collateral, then in
connection with any such DIP Financing or use of cash collateral the Junior Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and any of the Junior Priority Secured Parties, may seek or accept adequate protection consisting solely of a replacement Lien
on the same additional collateral, subordinated to the Liens securing (x) such DIP Financing on the same terms as the First Priority Liens are subordinated thereto (and such subordination will not alter in any manner the terms of this
Agreement) and (y) the First Priority Obligations on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Junior Priority Obligations are so subordinated to the First Priority Obligations under this Agreement and (ii) in the event the Junior
Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the Junior Priority Secured Parties, seeks or accepts adequate protection in accordance with clause (i) above in the form of additional collateral, then the Junior Priority Representative, on
behalf of itself or any of the Junior Priority Secured Parties, agrees that the First Priority Representative shall also be granted a senior Lien on such additional collateral as security for the First Priority Obligations and any such DIP Financing
and that any Lien on such additional collateral securing the Junior Priority Obligations shall be subordinated to (A) the Liens on such collateral securing the First Priority Obligations and any other Liens granted to the First Priority Secured
Parties as adequate protection on the same terms that 
  

 C-17 








 
the Liens securing the Junior Priority Obligations are subordinated to such First Priority Obligations under this Agreement and (B) (x) the Liens on such collateral securing such DIP
Financing (and all obligations relating thereto), (y) any “carve-out” agreed to by the First Priority Representative or the First Priority Secured Parties and (z) in the case of any Insolvency Proceeding outside the United
States, any administrative or other charges granted in any Insolvency Proceeding that are similar in nature to a “carve-out” and agreed to by the First Priority Representative or the First Priority Secured Parties, in the case of each of
clauses (B) (x), (y) and (z), with such subordination to be on the same terms as the Liens securing the First Priority Obligations are subordinated thereto (and such subordination will not alter in any manner the terms of this Agreement).
The Junior Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the Junior Priority Secured Parties, agrees that except as expressly set forth in this Section 5.4, and except for adequate protection in the form of access to information to the
extent such access is also made available to the First Priority Representative on behalf of itself and the First Priority Secured Parties, none of them shall seek or accept adequate protection without the prior written consent of the First Priority
Representative. 
 5.5 Avoidance Issues. If any First Priority Secured Party is required in any Insolvency Proceeding or
otherwise to disgorge, turn over or otherwise pay to the bankruptcy trustee or the estate of any Grantor, because such amount was avoided or ordered to be paid or disgorged for any reason, including because it was found to be a fraudulent or
preferential transfer, any amount (a “Recovery”), whether received as proceeds of security, enforcement of any right of set-off or otherwise, then the First Priority Obligations shall be reinstated to the extent of such Recovery and
deemed to be outstanding as if such payment had not occurred and the First Priority Obligations Payment Date, if it shall otherwise have occurred, shall be deemed not to have occurred. If this Agreement shall have been terminated prior to such
Recovery, this Agreement shall be reinstated in full force and effect, and such prior termination shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the obligations of the parties hereto. The Junior Priority Secured Parties agree
that none of them shall be entitled to benefit from any avoidance action affecting or otherwise relating to any distribution or allocation made in accordance with this Agreement, whether by preference or otherwise, it being understood and agreed
that the benefit of such avoidance action otherwise allocable to them shall instead be allocated and turned over for application in accordance with the priorities set forth in this Agreement. 

5.6 Asset Dispositions in an Insolvency Proceeding. Neither the Junior Priority Representative nor any Junior Priority Secured
Party shall, in an Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise, oppose any sale or other disposition of any assets of any Grantor that is supported by the First Priority Secured Parties, and the Junior Priority Representative and each Junior Priority Secured
Party will be deemed to have consented under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code (and otherwise) to any such sale or other disposition of assets supported by the First Priority Secured Parties and to have released their Liens on such assets;
provided, to the extent such sale is to be free and clear of Liens, that the Liens securing the First Priority Obligations and the Junior Priority Obligations will attach to the proceeds of the sale on the same basis of priority as the Liens
released on the assets sold. 
  

 C-18 








 5.7 Separate Grants of Security and Separate Classification. Each Junior Priority
Secured Party acknowledges and agrees that (a) the grants of Liens pursuant to the First Priority Security Documents and the Junior Priority Security Documents constitute two separate and distinct grants of Liens and (b) because of, among
other things, their differing rights in the Shared Collateral, the Junior Priority Obligations are fundamentally different from the First Priority Obligations and must be separately classified in any plan of reorganization proposed or adopted in an
Insolvency Proceeding. To further effectuate the intent of the parties as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, if it is held that the claims of the First Priority Secured Parties and Junior Priority Secured Parties in respect of the
Shared Collateral constitute only one class of secured claims (rather than separate classes of senior and junior secured claims), then the Junior Priority Secured Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that all distributions shall be made as if there
were separate classes of senior and junior secured claims against the Grantors in respect of the Shared Collateral (with the effect being that, to the extent that the aggregate value of the Shared Collateral is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring
all claims held by the Junior Priority Secured Parties), the First Priority Secured Parties shall be entitled to receive, in addition to amounts distributed to them in respect of principal, pre-petition interest and other claims, all amounts owing
in respect of Post-Petition Interest before any distribution is made in respect of the claims held by the Junior Priority Secured Parties, with the Junior Priority Secured Parties hereby acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the First Priority
Secured Parties amounts otherwise received or receivable by them to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this sentence, even if such turnover has the effect of reducing the claim or recovery of the Junior Priority Secured Parties), and
that, until turned over to the First Priority Secured Parties, such amounts will be held in trust for the First Priority Secured Parties. 

5.8 No Waivers of Rights of First Priority Secured Parties. Nothing contained herein shall prohibit or in any way limit the First
Priority Representative or any First Priority Secured Party from objecting in any Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise to any action taken by any Junior Priority Secured Party not expressly permitted hereunder, including the seeking by any Junior
Priority Secured Party of adequate protection (except as provided in Section 5.4) or the asserting by any Junior Priority Secured Party of any of its rights and remedies under the Junior Priority Documents or otherwise. 

5.9 Plans of Reorganization. No Junior Priority Secured Party shall support or vote in favor of any plan of reorganization (and
each shall be deemed to have voted to reject any plan of reorganization) unless such plan (a) pays off, in cash in full, all First Priority Obligations or (b) is accepted by the class of holders of First Priority Obligations voting
thereon. 
 5.10 [Reserved]. 

5.11 Effectiveness in Insolvency Proceedings. This Agreement, which the parties hereto expressly acknowledge is a
“subordination agreement” under section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, shall be effective before, during and after the commencement of an Insolvency Proceeding. All references to any Grantor herein shall apply to any trustee for such
Person and such Person as debtor in possession. The 
  

 C-19 








 
relative rights as to the Shared Collateral and other collateral and proceeds thereof shall continue after the filing thereof on the same basis as prior to the date of the petition, subject to
any court order approving the financing of, or use of cash collateral by, any such Person. 
 5.12 Reorganization
Securities. If, in any Insolvency Proceeding, debt obligations of the reorganized debtor secured by Liens upon any property of the reorganized debtor (“Reorganization Securities”) are distributed, pursuant to a plan of
reorganization or similar dispositive restructuring plan, on account of the Junior Priority Obligations, then the provisions of this Agreement will survive the distribution of such debt obligations pursuant to such plan and will apply with like
effect to the Liens securing such debt obligations. In no event shall the Junior Priority Secured Parties be required to turn over to the First Priority Representative or any First Priority Secured Party any Reorganization Securities to the extent
the same are subject to this Section 5.12. 
 5.13 Post-Petition Claims. None of the Junior Priority Representative
or any Junior Priority Secured Party shall oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the First Priority Representative or any First Priority Secured Party for allowance in any Insolvency Proceeding of First Priority Obligations consisting of
Post-Petition Interest or indemnities to the extent of the value of the Liens in favor of the First Priority Representative and the First Priority Secured Parties, without regard to the existence of the Liens of the Junior Priority Representative on
behalf of the Junior Priority Secured Parties on the Shared Collateral. 
 5.14 Waivers. Until the First Priority
Obligations Payment Date, the Junior Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and each Junior Priority Secured Party, agrees that (a) it will not assert or enforce any claim under Section 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code senior to or on a
parity with the Liens securing the First Priority Obligations for costs or expenses of preserving or disposing of any Shared Collateral or other collateral and (b) waives any claim it may now or hereafter have arising out of the election by any
First Priority Secured Party of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code. 
 SECTION 6. Junior
Priority Documents and First Priority Documents. 
 (a) Each Grantor and the Junior Priority Representative, on behalf of
itself and the Junior Priority Secured Parties, agrees that it shall not at any time execute or deliver any amendment or other modification to any of the Junior Priority Documents inconsistent with or in violation of this Agreement. 

(b) Each Grantor and the First Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the First Priority Secured Parties, agrees that it shall
not at any time execute or deliver any amendment or other modification to any of the First Priority Documents inconsistent with or in violation of this Agreement. 

 

 C-20 








 (c) In the event the First Priority Representative enters into any amendment, waiver or
consent in respect of any of the First Priority Security Documents for the purpose of adding to, or deleting from, or waiving or consenting to any departures from any provisions of, any First Priority Security Document or changing in any manner the
rights of any parties thereunder, then such amendment, waiver or consent shall apply automatically to any comparable provision of the Comparable Junior Priority Security Document without the consent of or action by any Junior Priority Secured Party
(with all such amendments, waivers and modifications subject to the terms hereof); provided that (other than with respect to amendments, modifications or waivers that secure additional extensions of credit and add additional secured creditors
and do not violate the express provisions of the Junior Priority Agreements), (i) no such amendment, waiver or consent shall have the effect of removing assets subject to the Lien of any Junior Priority Security Document, except to the extent
that a release of such Lien is permitted by Section 4.2, (ii) any such amendment, waiver or consent that materially and adversely affects the rights of the Junior Priority Secured Parties and does not affect the First Priority Secured
Parties in a like or similar manner shall not apply to the Junior Priority Security Documents without the consent of the Junior Priority Representative and (iii) notice of such amendment, waiver or consent shall be given to the Junior Priority
Representative no later than 15 days after its effectiveness; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the effectiveness and validity thereof. 

SECTION 7. Reliance; Waivers; etc. 

7.1 Reliance. The First Priority Documents are deemed to have been executed and delivered, and all issuances of debt or other
extensions of credit thereunder are deemed to have been made or incurred, in reliance upon this Agreement. The Junior Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the Junior Priority Secured Parties, expressly waives all notice of the acceptance
of and reliance on this Agreement by the First Priority Secured Parties. The Junior Priority Documents are deemed to have been executed and delivered, and all issuances of debt and other extensions of credit thereunder are deemed to have been made
or incurred, in reliance upon this Agreement. The First Priority Representative expressly waives, on behalf of itself and all the First Priority Secured Parties, all notices of the acceptance of and reliance by the Junior Priority Representative and
the Junior Priority Secured Parties. 
 7.2 No Warranties or Liability. The Junior Priority Representative and the First
Priority Representative acknowledge and agree that neither has made any representation or warranty with respect to the execution, validity, legality, completeness, collectibility or enforceability of any other First Priority Document or any Junior
Priority Document. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Junior Priority Representative and the First Priority Representative will be entitled to manage and supervise their respective extensions of credit to any Grantor in accordance
with law and their usual practices, modified from time to time as they deem appropriate. 
 7.3 No Waivers. No right or
benefit of any party hereunder shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of such party or any other party hereto or by any noncompliance by any Grantor with the terms and conditions of any of the
First Priority Documents or the Junior Priority Documents. 
  

 C-21
