 NOTE PURCHASE
AGREEMENT 
  
  

Dated as of June 14, 2004 

To Each of the Purchasers Listed 
 In Schedule A
Hereto 
 Ladies and Gentlemen: 
 The undersigned, Oaktree Capital Management, LLC, a California limited liability company (the “Company”), hereby agrees with you as follows: 

SECTION I. AUTHORIZATION OF NOTES. 
 The Company will authorize the issuance and sale of $75,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of its 5.03% Senior Notes due June 14, 2014 (the “Notes”, such term to include any such
notes issued in substitution therefor pursuant to Section XIII of this Agreement or the Other Agreements (as hereinafter defined)). The Notes shall be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit 1, with such changes therefrom, if any, as may be
approved by you and the Company. Each Note shall bear interest from the date thereof until such Note shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms thereof and hereof (whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) at the rate of
5.03% per annum, payable semiannually in arrears on the 14th day of June and December in each year, commencing December 14, 2004, and shall have a stated maturity of June 14, 2014. Interest on each Note shall be computed on the basis
of a three hundred sixty (360) day year of twelve (12) thirty (30) day months. Each Note shall bear interest on any overdue principal, including any overdue payment or prepayment of principal and premium, if any, and (to the extent
permitted by applicable law) on any overdue installment of interest, at the rate specified in such Note. If the Company shall have paid or agreed to pay any interest or premium on any Note in excess of that permitted by law, then it is the express
intent of the Company and the holder thereof that all excess amounts previously paid or to be paid by the Company be applied to reduce the principal balance of such Note, and the provisions thereof immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts
thereafter collectable thereunder reduced, 







 
without the necessity of the execution of any new document, so as to comply with the then applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for thereunder.
Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Schedule B; references to a “Schedule” or an “Exhibit” are, unless otherwise specified, to a Schedule or an Exhibit attached to this Agreement. 

SECTION II. SALE AND PURCHASE OF NOTES. 
 Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company will issue and sell to you and you will purchase from the Company, at the Closing provided for in Section III, Notes in the principal
amount specified opposite your name in Schedule A at the purchase price of 100% of the principal amount thereof. Contemporaneously with entering into this Agreement, the Company is entering into separate Note Purchase Agreements (the “Other
Agreements”) identical with this Agreement with each of the other purchasers named in Schedule A (the “Other Purchasers”), providing for the sale at such Closing to each of the Other Purchasers of Notes in the principal
amount specified opposite its name in Schedule A. Your obligations hereunder and the obligations of the Other Purchasers pursuant to the Other Agreements are several and not joint and several obligations and you shall have no obligation under any
Other Agreement and no liability to any Person for the performance or non-performance by any Other Purchaser thereunder. 
 SECTION III.
CLOSING. 
 The sale and purchase of the Notes to be purchased by you and the Other Purchasers shall occur at the offices of
Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP, 666 Fifth Avenue, New York, New York 10103, at 10:00 a.m., eastern standard time, at a closing (the “Closing”) on June 14, 2004 or on such other Business Day thereafter on or prior
to June 30, 2004 as may be agreed upon by the Company and you and the Other Purchasers. At the Closing the Company will deliver to you the Notes to be purchased by you in the form of a single Note (or such greater number of Notes in
denominations of at least $100,000 as you may request) dated the date of the Closing and registered in your name (or in the name of your nominee), against delivery by you to the Company or its order of immediately available funds in the amount of
the purchase price therefor by wire transfer of immediately available funds for the account of the Company to account number 4100-071372 at Wells Fargo Bank, Los Angeles, CA 90071, ABA No. 121 000 248, Account Name: Oaktree Capital Management,
LLC, Attention: Wire Department, Reference: Senior Notes. If at the Closing (a) the Company shall fail to tender such Notes to you as provided above in this Section III, you shall, at your election, be relieved of all further obligations under
this Agreement, without thereby waiving any rights you may have by reason of such failure or (b) any of the conditions specified in Section IV shall not have been fulfilled to your satisfaction, the transactions described herein shall not have
been deemed to have closed and you shall be relieved of all further obligations under this Agreement.

The Company represents and warrants to you that: 
 §5.01. Members of the Company. Schedule 5.01 lists all of the members of the Company together with their respective percentage equity interests in the Company. 

§5.02. Organization; Power and Authority. The Company is a limited liability company duly organized, validly existing and in
good standing under the laws of the State of California, and is duly qualified as a foreign limited liability company and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required by law, other than those jurisdictions as to
which the failure to be so qualified or in good standing could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company has the limited liability company power and authority to own or hold under
lease the properties it purports to own or hold under lease, to transact the business it transacts and proposes to transact, to execute and deliver this Agreement and the Other Agreements and the Notes and to perform the provisions hereof and
thereof. 
 §5.03. Authorization, etc. This Agreement and the Other Agreements and the Notes have been duly
authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Company, and this Agreement constitutes, and upon execution and delivery thereof each Note will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in
accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and
(ii) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). 
 §5.04. Operating Agreements and Other Information. The Company has furnished to you and your special counsel true, correct and complete copies of its operating agreement and any required
resolutions of its members authorizing the execution, delivery and acceptance of this Agreement, the Other Agreements and the Notes. 
 §5.05. Disclosure. The Company, through its agent, J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., has delivered to you and each Other Purchaser a copy of a Private Placement Memorandum, dated April 2004 (the
“Memorandum”), relating to the transactions contemplated hereby. The Memorandum fairly describes, in all material respects, the general nature of the business and principal properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries. Except as
disclosed in Schedule 5.05, this Agreement, the Memorandum, the documents, certificates or other writings identified in Schedule 5.05 delivered to you by or on behalf of the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and the
financial statements listed in Schedule 5.07, taken as a whole, do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under
which they were made. Except as disclosed in the Memorandum or as expressly described in Schedule 5.05, or in one of the documents, certificates or other writings identified therein, or in the financial statements listed in Schedule 5.07, since
December 31, 2003, there has been no change in the financial condition, operations, business, properties or prospects of the Company

or any Subsidiary except changes that individually or in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There is no fact known to the Company that could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect that has not been set forth herein or in the Memorandum or in the other documents, certificates and other writings delivered to you by or on behalf of the Company specifically for use in
connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. 
 §5.06. Organization and Ownership of Shares of Subsidiaries;
Affiliates. 
 (a) Schedule 5.06 contains (except as noted therein) complete and correct lists (i) of the Company’s
Subsidiaries, showing, as to each Subsidiary, the correct name thereof, the jurisdiction of its organization, and the percentage of shares of each class of its capital stock or similar equity interests outstanding owned by the Company and each other
Subsidiary, (ii) of the Company’s Affiliates, other than Subsidiaries, and (iii) of the Company’s principals and senior officers. 
 (b) All of the outstanding shares of capital stock or similar equity interests of each Subsidiary shown in Schedule 5.06 as being owned by the Company and its Subsidiaries have been validly issued, are
fully paid and nonassessable and are owned by the Company or another Subsidiary free and clear of any Lien (except as otherwise disclosed in Schedule 5.06). 
 (c) Each Subsidiary identified in Schedule 5.06 is a legal entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, and is duly qualified as a
foreign legal entity and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required by law, other than those jurisdictions as to which the failure to be so qualified or in good standing could not, individually or in the
aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each such Subsidiary has the power and authority to own or hold under lease the properties it purports to own or hold under lease and to transact the business it transacts and
proposes to transact. 
 (d) No Subsidiary is a party to, or otherwise subject to any legal, regulatory, contractual or other
restriction (other than this Agreement, the Other Agreements, the agreements listed on Schedule 5.06 and customary limitations imposed by corporate, limited liability company, partnership and other entity statutes and regulations) restricting the
ability of such Subsidiary to pay dividends out of profits or make any other similar distributions of profits to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that owns outstanding shares of capital stock or similar equity interests of such Subsidiary.

 §5.07. Financial Statements. The Company has delivered to each Purchaser copies of the consolidated financial
statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries listed on Schedule 5.07. All of said financial statements (including in each case the related schedules and notes) fairly present in all material respects the consolidated financial position of the
Company and its Subsidiaries as of the respective dates specified in such Schedule and the consolidated results of their operations and cash flows for the respective periods so specified and have been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently
applied throughout the periods involved except as set forth in the notes thereto (subject, in the case of any interim financial statements, to normal year-end adjustments). The Company and its Subsidiaries do not have any non-contingent

Material liabilities that are not disclosed on such financial statements or otherwise disclosed by the Company in writing to you and the Other Purchasers. 

§5.08. Compliance with Laws, Other Instruments, etc. The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement
and the Notes will not (i) contravene, result in any breach of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation of any Lien in respect of any property of the Company or any Subsidiary under, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust,
loan, purchase or credit agreement, lease, corporate charter or by-laws, operating agreement or any other agreement or instrument to which the Company or any Subsidiary is bound or by which the Company or any Subsidiary or any of their respective
properties may be bound or affected, (ii) conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any order, judgment, decree, or ruling of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority applicable to the Company
or any Subsidiary or (iii) violate any provision of any statute or other rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority applicable to the Company or any Subsidiary. 
 §5.09. Governmental Authorizations, etc. No consent, approval or authorization of, or registration, filing or declaration with, any Governmental Authority is required in connection with the
execution, delivery or performance by the Company of this Agreement or the Notes, other than filings made pursuant to Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act or similar filings or notices under state securities laws. 

§5.10. Litigation; Observance of Agreements, Statutes and Orders. 

(a) Except as disclosed in Schedule 5.10, there are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of the Company,
threatened against or affecting the Company or any Subsidiary or any property of the Company or any Subsidiary in any court or before any arbitrator of any kind or before or by any Governmental Authority that, individually or in the aggregate, could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (b) Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in default under any
term of any agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it is bound, or any order, judgment, decree or ruling of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority or is in violation of any applicable law, ordinance, rule or regulation
(including, without limitation, Environmental Laws) of any Governmental Authority, which default or violation, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

§5.11. Taxes. The Company and its Subsidiaries have filed all tax returns that are required to have been filed in any
jurisdiction, and have paid all taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns and all other taxes and assessments levied upon them or their properties, assets, income or franchises, to the extent such taxes and assessments have become due and
payable and before they have become delinquent, except for any taxes and assessments (i) the amount of which is not individually or in the aggregate Material or (ii) the amount, applicability or validity of which is currently being
contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which the Company or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, has established adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP. The Company knows of no basis for any other tax or assessment
that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Company and its Subsidiaries in respect of Federal, 

  
 7 








 
state or other taxes for all fiscal periods are adequate in accordance with GAAP. The Federal income tax returns of the Company and its Subsidiaries have been audited by the Internal Revenue
Service or the statute of limitations relating to such returns (or their underlying liabilities) has expired, and all liabilities for taxes shown thereon to be due have been paid, for all fiscal years up to and including the fiscal year ended
December 31, 1998. 
 §5.12. Title to Property; Leases. The Company and its Subsidiaries have good and
sufficient title to their respective properties that individually or in the aggregate are Material, including all such properties reflected in the most recent audited balance sheet referred to in §5.07 or purported to have been acquired by the
Company or any Subsidiary after said date (except as sold or otherwise disposed of in the ordinary course of business), in each case free and clear of Liens prohibited by this Agreement. All leases that individually or in the aggregate are Material
are valid and subsisting and are in full force and effect in all material respects. 
 §5.13. Licenses, Permits,
etc. Except as disclosed in Schedule 5.13: 
 (a) the Company and its Subsidiaries own or possess all licenses, permits,
franchises, authorizations, patents, copyrights, service marks, trademarks and trade names, or rights thereto, that individually or in the aggregate are Material, without known conflict with the rights of others; 

(b) to the best knowledge of the Company, no product of the Company infringes in any material respect any license, permit, franchise,
authorization, patent, copyright, service mark, trademark, trade name or other right owned by any other Person; and 
 (c) to the
best knowledge of the Company, there is no Material violation by any Person of any right of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to any patent, copyright, proprietary software, service mark, trademark, trade name or other right owned
or used by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. 
 §5.14. Compliance with ERISA. 

(a) The Company and each ERISA Affiliate have operated and administered each Plan in compliance with all applicable laws except for such
instances of noncompliance as have not resulted in and could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred any liability pursuant to Title I or IV of ERISA or the penalty
or excise tax provisions of the Code relating to employee benefit plans (as defined in Section 3 of ERISA), and no event, transaction or condition has occurred or exists that could reasonably be expected to result in the incurrence of any such
liability by the Company or any ERISA Affiliate, or in the imposition of any Lien on any of the rights, properties or assets of the Company or any ERISA Affiliate, in either case pursuant to Title I or IV of ERISA or to such penalty or excise tax
provisions or to Section 401(a)(29) or 412 of the Code, other than such liabilities or Liens as would not be individually or in the aggregate Material. 
 (b) The present value of the aggregate benefit liabilities under each of the Plans (other than Multiemployer Plans), determined as of the end of such Plan’s most recently ended plan year on the basis
of the actuarial assumptions specified for funding purposes in such 

  
 8 








 
Plan’s most recent actuarial valuation report, did not exceed the aggregate current value of the assets of such Plan allocable to such benefit liabilities. The term “benefit
liabilities” has the meaning specified in Section 4001 of ERISA and the terms “current value” and “present value” have the meaning specified in Section 3 of ERISA. 

(c) The Company and its ERISA Affiliates have not incurred withdrawal liabilities (and are not subject to contingent withdrawal
liabilities) under Section 4201 or 4204 of ERISA in respect of Multiemployer Plans that individually or in the aggregate are Material. 
 (d) The expected postretirement benefit obligation (determined as of the last day of the Company’s most recently ended fiscal year in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement
No. 106, without regard to liabilities attributable to continuation coverage mandated by Section 4980B of the Code) of the Company and its Subsidiaries is not Material. 

(e) The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the issuance and sale of the Notes hereunder will not constitute or result in any
non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or any transaction in connection with which a tax could be imposed pursuant to Section 4975(c)(1)(A)-(D) of the Code. The representation by the Company in the first sentence
of this §5.14(e) is made in reliance upon and subject to the accuracy of your representation in §6.02 as to the sources of the funds used to pay the purchase price of the Notes to be purchased by you. 

§5.15. Private Offering by the Company. Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has offered the Notes (or within
24 months of the Closing any similar securities) for sale to, or solicited any offer to buy any of the same from, or otherwise approached or negotiated in respect thereof with, any Person other than you, the Other Purchasers and not more than twelve
other Institutional Investors, each of which has been offered the Notes at a private sale for investment. Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has taken, or will take, any action that would subject the issuance or sale of the Notes to
the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act or to the provisions of any securities or blue sky laws of any applicable jurisdiction. 
 §5.16. Solvency. The Company is not and, immediately after giving effect to the issue and sale of the Notes and the consummation of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, will
not be, insolvent as defined under any applicable federal or state law. 
 §5.17. Use of Proceeds; Margin
Regulations. The Company will apply the proceeds of the sale of the Notes as set forth in Schedule 5.17. No part of the proceeds from the sale of the Notes hereunder will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of buying or carrying any
margin stock within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (12 CFR Part 221), or for the purpose of buying or carrying or trading in any securities under such circumstances as to involve the Company in a
violation of Regulation X of said Board (12 CFR Part 224) or to involve any broker or dealer in a violation of Regulation T of said Board (12 CFR Part 220). Margin stock does not constitute more than 10% of the value of the consolidated assets of
the Company and its Subsidiaries and the Company does not have any present intention that margin stock will constitute more than 10% of the value of such 

  
 9 








 
assets. As used in this Section, the terms “margin stock” and “purpose of buying or carrying” shall have the meanings assigned to them in said Regulation U.

 §5.18. Existing Indebtedness; Future Liens. 

(a) Except as described therein, Schedule 5.18 sets forth a complete and correct list of all outstanding Indebtedness of the Company and
its Subsidiaries as of the Closing. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in default and no waiver of default is currently in effect, in the payment of any principal or interest on any Indebtedness of the Company or such Subsidiary and no event
or condition exists with respect to any Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary that would permit (or that with notice or the lapse of time, or both, would permit) one or more Persons to cause such Indebtedness to become due and payable before
its stated maturity or before its regularly scheduled dates of payment. 
 (b) Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has agreed
or consented to cause or permit in the future (upon the happening of a contingency or otherwise) any of its property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, to be subject to a Lien not permitted by §10.04. 

§5.19. Foreign Assets Control Regulations, etc. Neither the sale of the Notes by the Company hereunder nor its use of the
proceeds thereof will violate the Trading with the Enemy Act, as amended, or any of the foreign assets control regulations of the United States Treasury Department (31 CFR, Subtitle B, Chapter V, as amended) or any enabling legislation or executive
order relating thereto. Without limiting the foregoing, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries (a) is or will become a Person whose property or interests in property are blocked pursuant to Section 1 of Executive Order 13224 of
September 23, 2001 Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions With Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit, or Support Terrorism (66 Fed. Reg. 49079 (2001)) or (b) engages or will engage in any dealings or transactions, or be
otherwise associated, with any such Person. The Company and its Subsidiaries are in compliance, in all Material respects, with the Uniting And Strengthening America By Providing Appropriate Tools Required To Intercept And Obstruct Terrorism Act (USA
Patriot Act of 2001). 
 No part of the proceeds from the sale of the Notes hereunder will be used, directly or indirectly, for
any payments to any governmental official or employee, political party, official of a political party, candidate for political office, or anyone else acting in an official capacity, in order to obtain, retain or direct business or obtain any
improper advantage, in violation of the United Stated Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended, assuming in all cases that such Act applies to the Company. 
 §5.20. Status under Certain Statutes. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, the Public Utility Holding Company
Act of 1935, as amended, the ICC Termination Act of 1995, as amended, or the Federal Power Act, as amended. 
 §5.21.

their 

  
 10 









 respective real properties now or formerly owned, leased or operated by any of them or other assets,
alleging any damage to the environment or violation of any Environmental Laws, except, in each case, such as could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Except as otherwise disclosed to you in writing: 

(a) neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has knowledge of any facts which would give rise to any claim, public or private, of violation
of Environmental Laws or damage to the environment emanating from, occurring on or in any way related to real properties now or formerly owned, leased or operated by any of them or to other assets or their use, except, in each case, such as could
not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect; 
 (b) neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has
stored any Hazardous Materials on real properties now or formerly owned, leased or operated by any of them and has not disposed of any Hazardous Materials in a manner contrary to any Environmental Laws in each case in any manner that could

or operated by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries are in compliance with applicable Environmental Laws, except where failure to comply could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect

the Notes, rank at least pari passu, without preference or priority, with all of its other outstanding unsecured and unsubordinated Indebtedness.

 SECTION VIII. PREPAYMENT OF THE NOTES. 

§8.01. Required Prepayments. On June 14, 2008 and on each June 14th thereafter up to and including June 14,
2014 the Company will prepay $10,714,286 principal amount (or such lesser principal amount as shall then be outstanding) of the Notes at par and without payment of the Make-Whole Amount or any premium, provided, that upon any partial
prepayment of the Notes pursuant to §8.02 or purchase of the Notes permitted by §8.06, the principal amount of each required prepayment of the Notes becoming due under this §8.01 on and after the date of such prepayment or purchase
shall be reduced in the same proportion as the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Notes was reduced as a result of such prepayment or purchase. 
 §8.02. Optional Prepayments with Make-Whole Amount. The Company may, at its option, upon notice as provided below, prepay at any time all, or from time to time any part of, the Notes at a
price equal to the outstanding principal balance thereof plus the Make-Whole Amount, together with interest accrued through the date of prepayment. The Company will give each holder of Notes written notice of each optional prepayment under this
§8.02 not less than thirty (30) days (and not more than sixty (60) days) prior to the date fixed for such prepayment. Each such notice shall specify such date, the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be prepaid on such date,
the principal amount of each Note held by such holder to be prepaid (determined in accordance with §8.04), and the interest to be paid on the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount being prepaid, and shall be accompanied by a
certificate of a Senior Financial Officer as to the estimated Make-Whole Amount due in connection with such prepayment (calculated as if the date of such notice were the date of the prepayment), setting forth the details of such computation. Two
(2) Business Days prior to such prepayment, the Company shall deliver to each holder of Notes a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer specifying the calculation of such Make-Whole Amount as of the specified prepayment date. Except as
explicitly provided in §§8.01, 8.02 and 8.03, the Company may not prepay all, or any part of, the Notes. 

  
 16 









 §8.03. Mandatory Offer to Prepay in Event of Change of Control. 

(a) In the event of the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Company shall deliver to each holder of a Note a §8.03 Notice and
Offer to Prepay pursuant to §8.03(b). Any prepayment of Notes pursuant to this §8.03 shall be made at a prepayment price equal to the principal amount of Notes to be prepaid, together with interest accrued thereon to the date of
prepayment, plus a premium equal to the Make-Whole Amount, provided, however, that no Make-Whole Amount shall be applicable in respect of such prepayment in the event that such Change of Control results from the occurrence of an event specified in
clause (ii) of §8.03(e) unless the event specified in clause (i) of 8.03(e) also has occurred. 
 (b) Not later
than thirty (30) days and not more than sixty (60) days prior to a Change of Control, the Company shall give written notice to each holder of a Note that the Company anticipates a Change of Control and of such holder’s right to elect
to be prepaid hereunder arising as a result thereof (a “§8.03 Notice and Offer to Prepay”). Such §8.03 Notice and Offer to Prepay shall state: (i) that such notice is delivered pursuant to this §8.03(b);
(ii) the proposed date of and a description of the circumstances surrounding such Change of Control; (iii) the date by which a holder must deliver a §8.03(c) Response pursuant to §8.03(c) hereof in order to accept prepayment; and
(iv) the date on which the Company will prepay the Notes pursuant to §8.03(c), which prepayment date shall be the date of the occurrence of a Change of Control (the “§8.03 Special Prepayment Date”). No failure by the
Company to deliver a §8.03 Notice and Offer to Prepay to any holder shall limit such holder’s right to exercise such election and require the Company to effect such prepayment within a reasonable time period after such holder becomes aware
of such Change of Control. 
 (c) To accept prepayment pursuant to this §8.03 of the Notes held by it, a holder shall
deliver to the Company such holder’s notice that it accepts prepayment pursuant to this §8.03 with respect to the Notes held by it and designated therein (a “§8.03(c) Response”). Such §8.03(c) Response shall be
delivered to the Company on or before the tenth (10th) day prior to the §8.03 Special Prepayment Date. The §8.03(c) Response shall set forth the name of such holder and the statement that it accepts prepayment pursuant to this
§8.03 with respect to the Notes designated therein. Promptly and in any event within three (3) Business Days after receipt of a holder’s §8.03(c) Response, the Company shall, by written notice to such holder of a Note,
acknowledge receipt thereof. If the Company has delivered a §8.03 Notice and Offer to Prepay to each holder and on or prior to the fifteenth (15th) day prior to the §8.03 Special Prepayment Date, the Company shall not have received a
§8.03(c) Response from a holder (or shall have received a §8.03(c) Response with respect to some but not all the Notes held by such holder), the Company shall promptly, but in any case within one (1) Business Day after the
commencement of such fifteen (15) day period, deliver written notice to such holder that all of the Notes held by such holder (or all of the Notes held by such holder with respect to which such holder shall not have declined prepayment in such
holder’s §8.03(c) Response) may be prepaid pursuant to this §8.03 on the §8.03 Special Prepayment Date. A failure by a holder to respond to an offer to prepay made pursuant to this §8.03 shall be deemed to constitute an
acceptance of such offer by such holder. 
 (d) The obligation of the Company to prepay Notes pursuant to the offers required by
§8.03(b) and their acceptance in accordance with §8.03(c) is subject to the 

  
 17 









 
occurrence of the Change of Control in respect of which such offers and acceptances shall have been made. In the event that such Change of Control does not occur on the §8.03 Special
Prepayment Date in respect thereof, the prepayment shall be deferred until, and shall be made on, the date on which such Change of Control occurs. The Company shall keep each holder reasonably and timely informed of (i) any such deferral of the
date of prepayment, (ii) the date on which such Change of Control and the prepayment are expected to occur, and (iii) any determination by the Company that efforts to effect such Change of Control have ceased or been abandoned (in which
case the offers and acceptances made pursuant to this §8.03 in respect of such Change of Control shall be deemed rescinded). In the event that such Change of Control does not occur on the §8.03 Special Prepayment Date or within one hundred
eighty (180) days thereafter, the Company shall not permit any Change of Control to occur unless it delivers a new §8.03 Notice and Offer to Prepay and otherwise complies with the provisions of this §8.03. 

(e) For the purposes of this §8.03, a “Change of Control” shall mean (i) any event whereby any Person or Persons that
would be considered a “group” for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, the regulations promulgated thereunder or Schedule 13D promulgated by the Commission (or any successor section, regulation or form), other than any
Persons listed on Schedule 8.03 and any other officer of the Company admitted as a member of the Company hereafter in the ordinary course of business, shall in the aggregate, directly or indirectly, control or own (beneficially or otherwise) more
than 35% of the aggregate Capital Stock of the Company, or (ii) the acquisition of direct or indirect Control of the Company by any Person or Persons (other than any of the Key Principals). 

§8.04. Allocation of Partial Prepayments. In the case of each partial prepayment of the Notes, the principal amount of the
Notes to be prepaid shall be allocated among all of the Notes at the time outstanding in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts thereof not theretofore called for prepayment. 

§8.05. Maturity; Surrender, etc. In the case of each prepayment of Notes pursuant to this Section VIII, the principal amount
of each Note to be prepaid shall mature and become due and payable on the date fixed for such prepayment, together with interest on such principal amount accrued to such date and the applicable Make-Whole Amount, if any. From and after such date,
unless the Company shall fail to pay such principal amount when so due and payable, together with the interest and Make-Whole Amount, if any, as aforesaid, interest on such principal amount shall cease to accrue. Any Note paid or prepaid in full
shall, upon written request therefor by the Company, be surrendered to the Company and cancelled and shall not be reissued, and no Note shall be issued in lieu of any prepaid principal amount of any Note without the consent of the holder of the Note
to whom such amount is payable. 
 §8.06. Purchase of Notes. The Company will not, and will not permit any Affiliate
to, purchase, redeem, prepay or otherwise acquire, directly or indirectly, any of the outstanding Notes except upon the payment or prepayment of the Notes in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Notes. The Company will promptly cancel
all Notes acquired by it or any Affiliate pursuant to any payment, prepayment or purchase of Notes pursuant to any provision of this Agreement and no Notes may be issued in substitution or exchange for any such Notes. 

  
 18 









 §8.07. Make-Whole Amount. The term “Make-Whole Amount” means,
with respect to any Note, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Discounted Value of the Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to the Called Principal of such Note over the amount of such Called Principal, provided that the
Make-Whole Amount may in no event be less than zero. For the purposes of determining the Make-Whole Amount, the following terms have the following meanings: 
 “Called Principal” means, with respect to any Note, the principal of such Note that is to be prepaid pursuant to §8.02 or §8.03 or has become or is declared to be immediately
due and payable pursuant to §12.01, as the context requires. 
 “Discounted Value” means, with respect to the Called
Principal of any Note, the amount obtained by discounting all Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to such Called Principal from their respective scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in accordance
with accepted financial practice and at a discount factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on the Notes is payable) equal to the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called Principal. 

“Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, 0.50% over the yield generated by (a) linearly
interpolating the yields by Bloomberg Financial Market Services, as of 10:00 a.m., eastern standard time, on the second (2nd) Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, on the display designated as
“Page PX1” (or such other display as may replace Page PX1) for the most actively traded (also known as “on the run”) U.S. Treasury securities having a maturity between (1) the most actively traded U.S. Treasury security with
the maturity closest to and greater than the Remaining Average Life and (2) the most actively traded U.S. Treasury security with the maturity closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life, or (b) if such yields are not reported as
of such time or the yields reported as of such time are not ascertainable (including by way of interpolation), the Treasury Constant Maturity Series Yields reported, for the latest day for which such yields have been so reported as of the second
(2nd) Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in U.S. Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (519) (or any comparable successor publication) for actively traded U.S. Treasury securities having a
constant maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of the Settlement Date. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the coupon of the applicable Note. 

“Remaining Average Life” means, with respect to any Called Principal, the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth year)
obtained by dividing (i) such Called Principal into (ii) the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (a) the principal component of each Remaining Scheduled Payment with respect to such Called Principal by (b) the number of
years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth year) that will elapse between the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal and the scheduled due date of such Remaining Scheduled Payment. 

“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, all payments of such Called Principal and
interest thereon that would be due after the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such Called Principal were made prior to its scheduled due date, provided that if such Settlement Date is not a date on which


  
 19 









 
interest payments are due to be made under the terms of the Notes, then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued to such
Settlement Date and required to be paid on such Settlement Date pursuant to §8.02, §8.03 or §12.01. 
 “Settlement
Date” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the date on which such Called Principal is to be prepaid pursuant to §8.02 or §8.03 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to
§12.01, as the context requires. 
 SECTION IX. AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS. 

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

§9.01. Compliance with Law. The Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, comply with all laws, ordinances or
governmental rules or regulations to which each of them is subject, including, without limitation, Environmental Laws, and will obtain and maintain in effect all licenses, certificates, permits, franchises and other governmental authorizations
necessary to the ownership of their respective properties or to the conduct of their respective businesses, in each case to the extent necessary to ensure that non-compliance with such laws, ordinances or governmental rules or regulations or
failures to obtain or maintain in effect such licenses, certificates, permits, franchises and other governmental authorizations could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

§9.02. Insurance. The Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, maintain, with financially sound and
reputable insurers, insurance with respect to their respective properties and businesses against such casualties and contingencies, of such types, on such terms and in such amounts (including deductibles, co-insurance and self-insurance, if adequate
reserves are maintained with respect thereto) as is customary in the case of entities of established reputations engaged in the same or a similar business and similarly situated. 

§9.03. Maintenance of Properties. The Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, maintain and keep, or cause
to be maintained and kept, their respective properties in good repair, working order and condition (other than ordinary wear and tear), so that the business carried on in connection therewith may be properly conducted at all times, provided
that this §9.03 shall not prevent the Company or any Subsidiary from discontinuing the operation and the maintenance of any of its properties if such discontinuance is desirable in the conduct of its business and the Company has concluded that
such discontinuance could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

§9.04. Payment of Taxes and Claims. The Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, file all tax returns
required to be filed in any jurisdiction and to pay and discharge all taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns and all other taxes, assessments, governmental charges, or levies imposed on them or any of their properties, assets, income or
franchises, to the extent such taxes and assessments have become due and payable and before they have become delinquent and all claims for which sums have become due and payable that have or might become a Lien on properties or assets of the Company
or any Subsidiary, provided that neither the Company nor any Subsidiary need pay any such tax or assessment or claims if (i)

  
 20 









 
the amount, applicability or validity thereof is contested by the Company or such Subsidiary on a timely basis in good faith and in appropriate proceedings, and the Company or a Subsidiary has
established adequate reserves therefor in accordance with GAAP on the books of the Company or such Subsidiary or (ii) the nonpayment of all such taxes and assessments in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect. 
 §9.05. Legal Existence, etc. The Company will at all times preserve and keep in full force and effect its
limited liability company existence. Subject to §10.02, the Company will at all times preserve and keep in full force and effect the legal existence of each of its Subsidiaries (unless merged into the Company or a Subsidiary) and all rights and
franchises of the Company and its Subsidiaries unless, in the good faith judgment of the Company, the termination of or failure to preserve and keep in full force and effect such corporate existence, right or franchise could not, individually or in
the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 §9.06. Priority Obligations. The Company will ensure that its
obligations pursuant to this Agreement and the Notes will at all times rank at least pari passu, without preference or priority, with all of the outstanding unsecured and unsubordinated Indebtedness of the Company. 

SECTION X. NEGATIVE COVENANTS. 
 The Company covenants that so long as any of the Notes are outstanding: 

§10.01. Transactions with Affiliates. The Company will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, enter into, directly or
indirectly, any transaction or group of related transactions (including, without limitation, the purchase, lease, sale or exchange of properties of any kind or the rendering of any service) with any Affiliate (other than the Company or another
Subsidiary), except in the ordinary course and pursuant to the reasonable requirements of the Company’s or such Subsidiary’s business and upon fair and reasonable terms no less favorable to the Company or such Subsidiary than would be
obtainable in a comparable arm’s-length transaction with a Person not an Affiliate. 
 §10.02. Merger,
Consolidation, etc.  
 (a) The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, consolidate with or merge
with any other Person or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of its assets in a single transaction or series of transactions to any Person (except that a Subsidiary may consolidate or merge with, or convey, transfer or lease all or
substantially all of its assets to the Company or a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of the Company), unless: 
 (i) the successor formed
by such consolidation or the survivor of such merger or the Person that acquires by conveyance, transfer or lease all or substantially all of the assets of the Company as an entirety, as the case may be (the “Successor”), shall be a
solvent Person (other than a Governmental Authority) organized and existing under the laws of the United States, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, and, if the Company is not the Successor, (A) such Person shall have executed and
delivered to each holder of any Notes its assumption of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition of this Agreement, the Other Agreements and the Notes (pursuant to such agreements and instruments as shall be

 21 









 
shall have caused to be delivered to each holder of any Notes an opinion of nationally recognized independent counsel, or other independent counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Required

 (ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. 
 No such conveyance, transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company shall have the effect of releasing the Company or any successor thereto that shall theretofore have become
such in the manner prescribed in this §10.02 from its liability under this Agreement or the Notes. 
 (b) The Company will
not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, engage to any material extent in any business other than businesses of the type conducted by the Company and its Subsidiaries on the date of execution of this Agreement and businesses reasonably

 (d) Indebtedness renewing, extending or refunding any Indebtedness permitted by §10.03(a), provided that (i) the terms and conditions of such renewal, extension or refund, taken as a

extended or refunded and (iii) immediately after such renewal, extension or refund, no Default or Event of Default shall exist. 
 §10.04. Liens. The Company will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or permit to exist any Lien on any property or asset now owned or
hereafter acquired, or assign or sell any income or revenues (including accounts receivable) or rights in respect thereof, except:

property;

provided that (i) no such Lien shall have been created or assumed in contemplation of such consolidation or merger or such Person’s becoming a Subsidiary or such acquisition of property, and (ii) each such Lien shall extend
solely to the item or items of property so acquired and, if required by the terms of the instrument originally creating such Lien, other property which is an improvement to or is acquired for specific use in connection with such acquired property;

any applicable grace period, or (ii) default in the performance or observance of any other provision contained in any instrument or agreement evidencing such Indebtedness or pursuant to which such Indebtedness was issued or incurred (which

 (g) the Company or any Subsidiary (i) is generally not paying, or admits in

 SECTION XII.
REMEDIES ON DEFAULT, ETC. 
 §12.01. Acceleration. 

(a) If an Event of Default with respect to the Company described in Section XI(g) or (h) (other than an Event of Default described in
clause (i) of Section XI(g) or described in clause (vi) of Section XI(g) by virtue of the fact that such clause encompasses clause (i) of Section XI(g)) has occurred, all the Notes then outstanding shall automatically become
immediately due and payable. 
 (b) If any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any holder or holders of more
than 51% in principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding may at any time at its or their option, by notice or notices to the Company, declare all the Notes then outstanding to be immediately due and payable. 

(c) If any Event of Default described in Section XI(a) or (b) has occurred and is continuing, any holder or holders of Notes at the
time outstanding affected by such Event of Default may at any time, at its or their option, by notice or notices to the Company, declare all the Notes held by it or them to be immediately due and payable. 

Upon any Notes becoming due and payable under this §12.01, whether automatically or by declaration, such Notes will forthwith mature and the entire
unpaid principal amount of such Notes, plus (x) all accrued and unpaid interest thereon (including, but not limited to, interest accrued thereon from the date of the Default giving rise to such Event of Default at the Default


  
 26 









 
Rate) and (y) the Make-Whole Amount determined in respect of such principal amount (to the full extent permitted by applicable law), shall all be immediately due and payable, in each and
every case without presentment, demand, protest or further notice, all of which are hereby waived. The Company acknowledges, and the parties hereto agree, that each holder of a Note has the right to maintain its investment in the Notes free from
repayment by the Company (except as herein specifically provided for) and that the provision for payment of a Make-Whole Amount by the Company in the event that the Notes are prepaid or are accelerated as a result of an Event of Default, is intended
to provide compensation for the deprivation of such right under such circumstances. 
 §12.02. Other Remedies. If
any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and irrespective of whether any Notes have become or have been declared immediately due and payable under §12.01, the holder of any Note at the time outstanding may proceed to
protect and enforce the rights of such holder by an action at law, suit in equity or other appropriate proceeding, whether for the specific performance of any agreement contained herein or in any Note, or for an injunction against a violation of any
of the terms hereof or thereof, or in aid of the exercise of any power granted hereby or thereby or by law or otherwise. 

§12.03. Rescission. At any time after any Notes have been declared due and payable pursuant to clause (b) or (c) of
§12.01, the holders of not less than 51% in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, by written notice to the Company, may rescind and annul any such declaration and its consequences if (a) the Company has paid all overdue interest
on the Notes, all principal of and Make-Whole Amount, if any, on any Notes that are due and payable and are unpaid other than by reason of such declaration, and all interest on such overdue principal and Make-Whole Amount, if any, and (to the extent
permitted by applicable law) any overdue interest in respect of the Notes, at the Default Rate, (b) all Events of Default and Defaults, other than non-payment of amounts that have become due solely by reason of such declaration, have been cured
or have been waived pursuant to Section XVII, and (c) no judgment or decree has been entered for the payment of any monies due pursuant hereto or to the Notes. No rescission and annulment under this §12.03 will extend to or affect any
subsequent Event of Default or Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
 §12.04. No Waivers or Election of
Remedies, Expenses, etc. No course of dealing and no delay on the part of any holder of any Note in exercising any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise prejudice such holder’s rights, powers or remedies. No
right, power or remedy conferred by this Agreement or by any Note upon any holder thereof shall be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy referred to herein or therein or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.
Without limiting the obligations of the Company under Section XV, the Company will pay to the holder of each Note on demand such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover all costs and expenses of such holder incurred in any enforcement or
collection under this Section XII, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements. 
 SECTION

of each holder of one or more Notes, each transfer thereof and the name and address of each transferee of one or more Notes shall be registered in such register. Prior to due presentment for
registration of transfer, the Person in whose name any Note shall be registered shall be deemed and treated as the owner and holder thereof for all purposes hereof, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice or knowledge to the contrary.
The Company shall give to any holder of a Note that is an Institutional Investor promptly upon request therefor, a complete and correct copy of the names and addresses of all registered holders of Notes. 

§13.02. Transfer and Exchange of Notes. Upon surrender of any Note at the principal executive office of the Company for
registration of transfer or exchange (and in the case of a surrender for registration of transfer, duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer duly executed by the registered holder of such Note or his attorney duly authorized
in writing and accompanied by the address for notices of each transferee of such Note or part thereof) and upon receipt of any other documents or information required by this Agreement or the Note, the Company shall, as soon as practicable
thereafter, execute and deliver, at the Company’s expense (except as provided below), one or more new Notes (as requested by the holder thereof) in exchange therefor, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of the
surrendered Note. Each such new Note shall be payable to such Person as such holder may request and shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit 1. Each such new Note shall be dated and bear interest from the date to which interest shall have been
paid on the surrendered Note or dated the date of the surrendered Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon. The Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp tax or governmental charge imposed in respect of any such
transfer of Notes. Notes shall not be transferred in denominations of less than $100,000, provided that if necessary to enable the registration of transfer by a holder of its entire holding of Notes, one Note may be in a denomination of less
than $100,000. Any transferee, by its acceptance of a Note registered in its name (or the name of its nominee), shall be deemed to have made the representation set forth in §6.02. Prior to the consummation of any transfer of any Note, the
holder of such Note will deliver to the Company a certificate in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 13.02 confirming that such transfer is being made pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. 

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

(a) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it (provided that if the holder of such Note
is, or is a nominee for, an original Purchaser or another holder of a Note with a minimum net worth of at least $250,000,000, such Person’s own unsecured agreement of indemnity shall be deemed to be satisfactory), or 

(b) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation thereof, 
 the Company at its own expense, as soon as practicable thereafter, shall execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Note, dated and bearing interest from the date to which interest shall have


  
 28 









 
been paid on such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon. 

SECTION XIV. PAYMENTS ON NOTES. 
 §14.01. Place of Payment. Subject to §14.02, payments of principal, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest becoming due and payable on the Notes shall be made in Los Angeles, California,
at the principal office of the Company in such jurisdiction. The Company may at any time, by notice to each holder of a Note, change the place of payment of the Notes so long as such place of payment shall be either the principal office of the
Company in the United States or the principal office of a bank or trust company in the United States. 
 §14.02. Home
Office Payment. So long as you or your nominee shall be the holder of any Note, and notwithstanding anything contained in §14.01 or in such Note to the contrary, the Company will pay all sums becoming due, including payment at maturity, on
such Note for principal, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest by the method and at the address specified for such purpose below your name in Schedule A, or by such other method or at such other address as you shall have from time to time
specified to the Company in writing for such purpose, without the presentation or surrender of such Note or the making of any notation thereon, except that upon written request of the Company made concurrently with or reasonably promptly after
payment or prepayment in full of any Note, you shall surrender such Note for cancellation, reasonably promptly after any such request, to the Company at its principal executive office or at the place of payment most recently designated by the
Company pursuant to §14.01. Prior to any sale or other disposition of any Note held by you or your nominee, you will, at your election, either endorse thereon the amount of principal paid thereon and the last date to which interest has been
paid thereon or surrender such Note to the Company in exchange for a new Note or Notes pursuant to §13.02. The Company will afford the benefits of this §14.02 to any Institutional Investor that is the direct or indirect transferee of any
Note purchased by you under this Agreement and that has made the same agreement relating to such Note as you have made in this §14.02. 

SECTION XV. EXPENSES, ETC. 
 §15.01. Transaction Expenses. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Company will pay all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’
fees, costs and disbursements of a special counsel and, if reasonably required, local or other counsel) incurred by you and each Other Purchaser or holder of a Note in connection with such transactions and in connection with any amendments, waivers
or consents under or in respect of this Agreement or the Notes (whether or not such amendment, waiver or consent becomes effective), including, without limitation: (a) the reasonable costs and expenses incurred in enforcing or defending (or
determining whether or how to enforce or defend) any rights under this Agreement or the Notes or in responding to any subpoena or other legal process or informal investigative demand issued in connection with this Agreement or the Notes, or by
reason of being a holder of any Note, and (b) the reasonable costs and expenses, including reasonable financial advisors’ fees, incurred in connection with the insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company or any Subsidiary or in connection with
any work-out or restructuring of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the Notes; provided that, (x) with respect to attorneys’ 

  
 29 









 
fees, costs and disbursements payable by the Company pursuant to this §15.01, the Company shall not be obligated to pay for the attorneys’ fees, costs and disbursements of more than one
firm of special counsel (which firm shall be the firm retained to represent you, the Other Purchasers, and all other holders of Notes collectively) and, to the extent that local or other counsel is reasonably required, the attorneys’ fees,
costs and disbursements of no more than one firm of such local or other counsel (which firm shall be the firm retained to represent you, the Other Purchasers, and all other holders of Notes collectively), and (y) with respect to financial
advisors’ fees payable by the Company pursuant to this §15.01, the Company shall not be obligated to pay for financial advisors’ fees and related costs and expenses of more than one firm of financial advisors (which firm shall be the
firm retained to represent you, the Other Purchasers, and all other holders of Notes collectively). The Company will pay, and will save you and each other holder of a Note harmless from, all claims in respect of any fees, costs or expenses if any,
of brokers and finders (other than those retained by you). 
 §15.02. Survival. The obligations of the Company under
this Section XV will survive the payment or transfer of any Note, the enforcement, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the Notes, and the termination of this Agreement. 
 SECTION XVI. SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; ENTIRE AGREEMENT. 

All representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Notes, the purchase
or transfer by you of any Note or portion thereof or interest therein and the payment of any Note, and may be relied upon by any subsequent holder of a Note, regardless of any investigation made at any time by or on behalf of you or any other holder
of a Note. All statements contained in any certificate or other instrument delivered by or on behalf of the Company pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed representations and warranties of the Company under this Agreement. Subject to the
preceding sentence, this Agreement and the Notes embody the entire agreement and understanding between you and the Company and supersede all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof. 

SECTION XVII. AMENDMENT AND WAIVER. 
 §17.01. Requirements. This Agreement and the Notes may be amended, and the observance of any term hereof or of the Notes may be waived (either retroactively or prospectively), with (and only
with) the written consent of the Company and the Required Holders, except that (a) no amendment or waiver of any of the provisions of Section I, II, III, IV, V, VI or XXI hereof, or any defined term (as it is used therein), will be effective as
to you unless consented to by you in writing, and (b) no such amendment or waiver may, without the written consent of the holder of each Note at the time outstanding affected thereby, (i) subject to the provisions of Section XII relating
to acceleration or rescission, change the amount or time of any prepayment or payment of principal of, or reduce the rate or change the time of payment or method of computation of interest or of the Make-Whole Amount on, the Notes, (ii) change
the percentage of the principal amount of the Notes the holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment or waiver, or (iii) amend any of Sections VIII, XI(a), XI(b), XII, XVII or XX. 

  
 30 









 §17.02. Solicitation of Holders of Notes. 

(a) Solicitation. The Company will provide each registered holder of the Notes (irrespective of the amount of Notes then owned by
it) with sufficient information, sufficiently far in advance of the date a decision is required, to enable such holder to make an informed and considered decision with respect to any proposed amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the
provisions hereof or of the Notes. The Company will deliver executed or true and correct copies of each amendment, waiver or consent effected pursuant to the provisions of this Section XVII to each registered holder of outstanding Notes promptly
following the date on which it is executed and delivered by, or receives the consent or approval of, the requisite holders of Notes. 
 (b) Payment. The Company will not directly or indirectly pay or cause to be paid any remuneration, whether by way of supplemental or additional interest, fee or otherwise, or grant any security, to
any holder of Notes as consideration for or as an inducement to the entering into by any holder of Notes or any waiver or amendment of any of the terms and provisions hereof unless such remuneration is concurrently paid, or security is concurrently
granted, on the same terms, ratably to each holder of Notes then outstanding even if such holder did not consent to such waiver or amendment. 
 §17.03. Binding Effect, etc. Any amendment or waiver consented to as provided in this Section XVII applies equally to all holders of Notes and is binding upon them and upon each future holder
of any Note and upon the Company without regard to whether such Note has been marked to indicate such amendment or waiver. No such amendment or waiver will extend to or affect any obligation, covenant, agreement, Default or Event of Default not
expressly amended or waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing between the Company and the holder of any Note nor any delay in exercising any rights hereunder or under any Note shall operate as a waiver of any rights of any
holder of such Note. As used herein, the term “this Agreement” and references thereto shall mean this Agreement as it may from time to time be amended or supplemented. 

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

  
 31 









 SECTION XVIII. NOTICES. 
 All notices and communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing and sent (a) by telecopy if the sender on the same day sends a confirming copy of such notice by a recognized overnight
delivery service (charges prepaid), or (b) by a recognized overnight delivery service (with charges prepaid). Any such notice must be sent: 
 (i) if to you or your nominee, to you or it at the address specified for such communications in Schedule A, or at such other address as you or it shall have specified to the Company in writing,

 (ii) if to any other holder of any Note, to such holder at such address as such other holder shall have specified to the
Company in writing, or 
 (iii) if to the Company, to the Company at its address set forth at the beginning hereof to the
attention of the Chief Financial Officer, with a copy to the General Counsel , or at such other address as the Company shall have specified to the holder of each Note in writing. 
 Notices under this Section XVIII will be deemed given only when actually received. 
 SECTION
XIX. REPRODUCTION OF DOCUMENTS. 
 This Agreement and all documents relating thereto, including, without limitation,
(a) consents, waivers and modifications that may hereafter be executed, (b) documents received by you at the Closing (except the Notes themselves), and (c) financial statements, certificates and other information previously or
hereafter furnished to you, may be reproduced by you by any photographic, photostatic, microfilm, microcard, miniature photographic or other similar process and you may destroy any original document so reproduced. The Company agrees and stipulates
that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any such reproduction shall be admissible in evidence as the original itself in any judicial or administrative proceeding (whether or not the original is in existence and whether or not such
reproduction was made by you in the regular course of business) and any enlargement, facsimile or further reproduction of such reproduction shall likewise be admissible in evidence. This Section XIX shall not prohibit the Company or any other holder
of Notes from contesting any such reproduction to the same extent that it could contest the original, or from introducing evidence to demonstrate the inaccuracy of any such reproduction. 
 SECTION XX. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. 
 For the purposes of this Section XX,
“Confidential Information” means information delivered to you by or on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary in connection with the transactions contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement (including, without
limitation, pursuant to §7.01 and §7.03) that is proprietary in nature and that was clearly marked or labeled or otherwise adequately identified when received by you as being confidential information of the Company, such Subsidiary or any
investment fund which is managed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or for which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries acts as a general partner or an investment advisor, provided that such term does not include information


  
 32 









 
that (a) was (i) publicly known or (ii) otherwise known to you prior to the time of such disclosure (other than from a source that you knew or should reasonably have known was
bound by a confidentiality obligation with respect to such information), (b) subsequently becomes publicly known through no act or omission by you or any Person acting on your behalf, (c) otherwise becomes known to you from a source that
you knew or reasonably should have known was bound by a confidentiality obligation with respect to such information or (d) constitutes financial statements delivered to you under §7.01 that are otherwise publicly available. You will not
use the Confidential Information for any purpose (including, without limitation, (x) to compete with the business of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any investment fund which is managed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or for
which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries acts as a general partner or an investment advisor or (y) in connection with the creation or management of any investment fund for which you act or any of your affiliates acts as a general partner or
an investment advisor) other than purposes directly related to your holding of the Notes and will maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information in accordance with procedures adopted by you in good faith to protect confidential
information of third parties delivered to you, provided that you may deliver or disclose Confidential Information to (i) your trustees, directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys and affiliates who need to know such information
for purposes directly related to your holding of the Notes and are directed to hold confidential the Confidential Information substantially in accordance with the terms of this Section XX and are prohibited from using the Confidential Information
other than for purposes directly related to your holding of the Notes, (ii) your financial advisors and other professional advisors who need to know such information for purposes directly related to your holding of the Notes and agree to hold
confidential the Confidential Information substantially in accordance with the terms of this Section XX and are prohibited from using the Confidential Information other than for purposes directly related to your holding of the Notes, (iii) any
other holder of any Note, (iv) any Institutional Investor to which you sell or offer to sell such Note or any part thereof or any participation therein (but only if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential
Information to be bound by the provisions of this Section XX), (v) any Person from which you offer to purchase any security of the Company (but only if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to
be bound by the provisions of this Section XX), (vi) any federal or state regulatory authority having jurisdiction over you, (vii) the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization, or any nationally
recognized rating agency that requires access to information about your investment portfolio or (viii) any other Person to which such delivery or disclosure may be reasonably necessary or appropriate (provided that you shall use your
reasonable best efforts to cause such Person to agree in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by the provisions of this Section XX) (w) to effect compliance with any law, rule, regulation or order applicable
to you, (x) in response to any subpoena or other legal process, (y) in connection with any litigation to which you are a party or (z) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to the extent you may reasonably determine
such delivery and disclosure to be necessary or appropriate in the enforcement or for the protection of the rights and remedies under your Notes and this Agreement. Each holder of a Note, by its acceptance of a Note, will be deemed to have agreed to
be bound by and to be entitled to the benefits of this Section XX as though it were a party to this Agreement. On reasonable request by the Company in connection with the delivery to any holder of a Note of information required to be delivered to
such holder under this Agreement or requested by such holder (other than a 

  
 33 









 holder that is a party to this Agreement or its nominee), such holder will enter into an agreement with the
Company embodying the provisions of this Section XX. 
 SECTION XXI. SUBSTITUTION OF PURCHASER. 

You shall have the right to substitute any one of your Affiliates as the purchaser of the Notes that you have agreed to purchase
hereunder, by written notice to the Company, which notice shall be signed by both you and such Affiliate, shall contain such Affiliate’s agreement to be bound by this Agreement and shall contain a confirmation by such Affiliate of the accuracy
with respect to it of the representations set forth in Section VI. Upon receipt of such notice, wherever the word “you” is used in this Agreement (other than in this Section XXI), such word shall be deemed to refer to such Affiliate in
lieu of you. In the event that such Affiliate is so substituted as a purchaser hereunder and such Affiliate thereafter transfers to you all of the Notes then held by such Affiliate, upon receipt by the Company of notice of such transfer, wherever
the word “you” is used in this Agreement (other than in this Section XXI), such word shall no longer be deemed to refer to such Affiliate, but shall refer to you, and you shall have all the rights of an original holder of the Notes under
this Agreement. 
 SECTION XXII. MISCELLANEOUS. 
 §22.01. Successors and Assigns. All covenants and other agreements contained in this Agreement by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto bind and inure to the benefit of their respective
successors and assigns (including, without limitation, any subsequent holder of a Note) whether so expressed or not. 

§22.02. Payments Due on Non-Business Days. Anything in this Agreement or the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding, any
payment of principal of or Make-Whole Amount or interest on any Note that is due on a date other than a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day without including the additional days elapsed in the computation of the interest
payable on such next succeeding Business Day. 
 §22.03. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is
prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability
in any jurisdiction shall (to the full extent permitted by law) not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 §22.04. Construction. Each covenant contained herein shall be construed (absent an express provision to the contrary) as being independent of each other covenant contained herein, so that
compliance with any one covenant shall not (absent such an express contrary provision) be deemed to excuse compliance with any other covenant. 
 Where the character or amount of any asset or liability or item of income or expense is required to be determined or any consolidation or other accounting computation is required to be made by the Company
for purposes of this Agreement, the same shall be done by the Company in accordance with GAAP, to the extent applicable, except where such principles are inconsistent with the requirements of this Agreement. 

  
 34 









 For the avoidance of doubt, all Schedules and Exhibits attached to this Agreement shall be
deemed to be a part hereof. 
 §22.05. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts,
each of which shall be an original but all of which together shall constitute one instrument. Each counterpart may consist of a number of copies hereof, each signed by less than all, but together signed by all, of the parties hereto. 

§22.06. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and the rights of the parties shall
be governed by, the law of the State of New York, excluding choice-of-law principles of the law of such State that would require the application of the laws of a jurisdiction other than such State. 

  
 35 









 If you are in agreement with the foregoing, please sign the form of agreement on the
accompanying counterpart of this Agreement and return it to the Company, whereupon the foregoing shall become a binding agreement between you and the Company.
