 FIRST SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE (the “First Supplemental Indenture”), dated as
of May 2, 2013, among Rosetta Resources Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), the Subsidiary Guarantors (as defined herein) and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Trustee (the “Trustee”).

 The Issuer and the Trustee have executed and delivered a base indenture, dated as of May 2, 2013 (as amended,
supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Base Indenture”) to provide for the future issuance of the Issuer’s senior debt securities to be issued from time to time in one or more series. 

The Issuer has duly authorized the creation of an issue of $700,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 5.625% Senior Notes due 2021 (the
“Notes”) and in connection therewith, each of the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors have duly authorized the execution and delivery of this First Supplemental Indenture to set forth the terms and provisions of the Notes as
contemplated by the Base Indenture. This First Supplemental Indenture restates in their entirety the terms of the Base Indenture as supplemented by this First Supplemental Indenture and does not incorporate the terms of the Base Indenture. The
changes, modifications and supplements to the Base Indenture affected by this First Supplemental Indenture shall be applicable only with respect to, and shall only govern the terms of, the Notes, except as otherwise provided herein, and shall not
apply to any other securities that may be issued under the Base Indenture unless a supplemental indenture with respect to such other securities specifically incorporates such changes, modifications and supplements. 

Each party hereto agrees as follows for the benefit of the other parties and for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the
Notes.

connection with, or in anticipation or contemplation of, such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary or such acquisition. Acquired Indebtedness shall be deemed to have been Incurred, with respect to clause (i) of the preceding sentence, on the
date such Person becomes or is merged with and into a Restricted Subsidiary and, with respect to clause (ii) of the preceding sentence, on the date of consummation of such acquisition of assets. 

“Acquisition” means the acquisition by the Issuer of certain producing and undeveloped oil and gas interests in the
Delaware Basin in Gaines and Reeves Counties, Texas from Comstock Oil & Gas, LP pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement.

provided, however, that, in the case of clauses (3) and (4), such Restricted Subsidiary is primarily engaged in the Oil and Gas
Business. 
 “Additional Notes” means Notes, in addition to, and having identical terms (except for a date of
original issuance different than the Issue Date) as, the $700,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes issued on the Issue Date, issued pursuant to Article II and in compliance with Section 4.12. 

“Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets” of a Person means (without duplication), as of the date of determination,
the remainder of: 
 (a) the sum of: 

(i) discounted future net revenues from proved oil and gas reserves of such Person and its Restricted Subsidiaries
calculated in accordance with SEC guidelines before any state, federal or foreign income taxes, as estimated by the Issuer in a reserve report prepared as of the end of the Issuer’s most recently completed fiscal year for which audited
financial statements are available, as increased by, as of the date of determination, the estimated discounted future net revenues from 
 (A) estimated proved oil and gas reserves acquired since such year end, which reserves were not reflected in such year end reserve report, and 

(B) estimated oil and gas reserves attributable to extensions, discoveries and other additions and upward revisions of
estimates of proved oil and gas reserves since such year-end due to exploration, development or exploitation, production or other activities which would, in accordance with standard industry practice, cause such revisions (including the impact to
proved reserves and future net revenues from estimated development costs incurred and the accretion of discount since such year-end), 

  
 -2-








 and decreased by, as of the date of determination, the estimated discounted
future net revenues from 
 (C) estimated proved oil and gas reserves produced or disposed of since such year
end, and 
 (D) estimated oil and gas reserves attributable to downward revisions of estimates of proved oil and
gas reserves since such year-end due to changes in geological conditions or other factors which would, in accordance with standard industry practice, cause such revisions, in each case calculated on a pretax basis and substantially in accordance
with SEC guidelines, 
 in the case of clauses (A) through (D) utilizing prices and costs calculated in accordance with
SEC guidelines as if the end of the most recent fiscal quarter preceding the date of determination for which such information is available to the Issuer were year end; provided, however, that in the case of each of the determinations
made pursuant to clauses (A) through (D), such increases and decreases shall be as estimated by the Issuer’s petroleum engineers; 
 (ii) the capitalized costs that are attributable to Oil and Gas Properties of such Person and its Restricted Subsidiaries to which no proved oil and gas reserves are attributable, based on such
Person’s books and records as of a date no earlier than the date of such Person’s latest available annual or quarterly financial statements; 
 (iii) the Net Working Capital of such Person and its Restricted Subsidiaries on a date no earlier than the date of such Person’s latest annual or quarterly financial statements; and

Net Working Capital of such Person in accordance with clause (a)(iii) above of this definition); 
 (iii) to the
extent included in (a)(i) above, the discounted future net revenues, calculated in accordance with SEC guidelines (but utilizing prices and costs calculated in accordance with SEC guidelines as if the end of the most recent fiscal quarter preceding
the date of determination for which such information is available to the Issuer were year-end), attributable to reserves which are required to be delivered to third parties to fully satisfy the obligations of the Issuer and its Restricted
Subsidiaries with respect to Volumetric Production Payments (determined, if applicable, using the schedules specified with respect thereto); and 
 (iv) the discounted future net revenues, calculated in accordance with SEC guidelines, attributable to reserves subject to Dollar-Denominated Production Payments which, based on the estimates of
production and price assumptions included in determining the discounted future net revenues specified in (a)(i) above, would be necessary to fully satisfy the payment obligations of such Person and its Subsidiaries with respect to Dollar-Denominated
Production Payments (determined, if applicable, using the schedules specified with respect thereto). 
 If the Issuer changes

(1) if the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary: 

(a) has Incurred any Indebtedness since the beginning of such period that remains outstanding on such date of
determination or if the transaction giving rise to the need to calculate the Consolidated Coverage Ratio is an Incurrence of Indebtedness, Consolidated EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period will be calculated after giving effect
on a pro forma basis to such Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof as if such Indebtedness had been Incurred on the first day of such period and such proceeds had been applied as of such date (except that in making such computation, the
amount of Indebtedness under any revolving Credit Facility outstanding on the date of such calculation will be deemed to be (i) the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during such four fiscal quarters or such shorter period for which
such facility was outstanding or (ii) if such revolving Credit Facility was created after the end of such four fiscal quarters, the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during the period from the date of creation of such revolving Credit

each case other than Indebtedness Incurred under any revolving Credit Facility unless such Indebtedness has been permanently repaid and the related commitment terminated), Consolidated EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period will be
calculated after giving effect on a pro forma basis to such discharge of such Indebtedness as if such discharge had occurred on the first day of such period; 
 (2) if, since the beginning of such period, the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary has made any Asset Disposition or if the transaction giving rise to the need to calculate the Consolidated Coverage
Ratio is such an Asset Disposition, the Consolidated EBITDA for such period will be reduced by an amount equal to the Consolidated EBITDA (if positive) directly attributable to the assets which are the subject of such Asset


  
 -10-








 
Disposition for such period or increased by an amount equal to the Consolidated EBITDA (if negative) directly attributable 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 Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary repaid, repurchased, defeased or otherwise discharged with respect to the Issuer and
its continuing Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with or with the proceeds from such Asset Disposition for such period (or, if the Capital Stock 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 Issuer and its continuing Restricted Subsidiaries are no longer liable for such Indebtedness after such sale); 

(3) if, since the beginning of such period, the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary (by merger or otherwise) has made an
Investment in any Restricted Subsidiary (or any Person which becomes a Restricted Subsidiary or is merged with or into the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary) or an acquisition (or will have received a contribution) of assets (including the
Acquisition), including any acquisition or contribution of assets occurring in connection with a transaction causing a calculation to be made hereunder, which constitutes, all or substantially all of a company, division, operating unit, segment,
business, group of related assets or line of business, Consolidated EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period will be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto (including the Incurrence of any Indebtedness) as if such
Investment or acquisition or contribution had occurred on the first day of such period; and 
 (4) if, since the
beginning of such period, any Person (that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged with or into the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary since the beginning of such period) made any Asset Disposition or any Investment or acquisition
of assets that would have required an adjustment pursuant to clause (2) or (3) above if made by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary during such period, Consolidated EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period will be
calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Asset Disposition or Investment or acquisition of assets had occurred on the first day of such period. 
 For purposes of this definition, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to any calculation under this definition, the pro forma calculations will be determined in good faith by a responsible financial
or accounting officer of the Issuer; provided that such officer may in his or her discretion include any reasonably identifiable and factually supportable pro forma changes to Consolidated EBITDA, including any pro forma expenses and cost
reductions, that have occurred or in the judgment of such officer are reasonably expected to occur within 12 months of the date of the applicable transaction (regardless of whether such expense or cost reduction or any other operating improvements
could then be reflected properly in pro forma financial statements prepared in accordance with Regulation S-X under the Securities Act or any other regulation or policy of the SEC). If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being
given pro forma effect, the interest expense on such Indebtedness will be calculated as if the average rate in effect from the beginning of such period to the date of determination had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into
account any Interest Rate Agreement applicable to such Indebtedness, but if the remaining term of such Interest Rate Agreement is less than 12 months, then such Interest Rate Agreement shall only be taken into account for that portion of


  
 -11-








 
the period equal to the remaining term thereof). If any Indebtedness that is being given pro forma effect bears an interest rate at the option of the Issuer, the interest rate shall be calculated
by applying such optional rate chosen by the Issuer. Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, a eurocurrency interbank offered rate, or other rate, shall be deemed
to have been based upon the rate actually chosen, or, if none, then based upon such optional rate chosen as the Issuer may designate.

 (5) other non-cash charges of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries (excluding any such non-cash charge

(6) if the Issuer changes its method of accounting for Oil and Gas Properties from full cost to successful efforts or a
similar method of accounting, consolidated exploration and abandonment expense of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries; and

Person will be added to Consolidated Net Income to compute Consolidated EBITDA of such Person only to the extent (and in the same proportion) that the net income (loss) of such Restricted Subsidiary was included in calculating the


  
 -12-








 
Consolidated Net Income of such Person and, to the extent the amounts set forth in clauses (2) through (7) are in excess of those necessary to offset a net loss of such Restricted
Subsidiary or if such Restricted Subsidiary has net income for such period included in Consolidated Net Income, only if a corresponding amount would be permitted at the date of determination to be dividended to the Issuer by such Restricted

“Consolidated Interest Expense” means, for any period, the total consolidated interest expense of the Issuer and its
Restricted Subsidiaries, whether paid or accrued, plus, to the extent not included in such interest expense and without duplication:

(2) amortization of debt discount and debt issuance cost (provided that any amortization of bond premium will be
credited to reduce Consolidated Interest Expense unless, pursuant to GAAP, such amortization of bond premium has otherwise reduced Consolidated Interest Expense); 

(3) non-cash interest expense; 
 (4) commissions, discounts and other fees and charges owed with respect to letters of credit and bankers’ acceptance financing; 

(5) the interest expense on Indebtedness of another Person that is Guaranteed by the Issuer or one of its Restricted

(6) costs associated with Interest Rate Agreements (including amortization of fees); provided, however, that
if Interest Rate Agreements result in net benefits rather than costs, such benefits shall be credited to reduce Consolidated Interest Expense unless, pursuant to GAAP, such net benefits are otherwise reflected in Consolidated Net Income; 

(7) the consolidated interest expense of such Person and its Restricted Subsidiaries that was capitalized during such
period; and 
 (8) all dividends paid or payable in cash, Cash Equivalents or Indebtedness or dividends accrued

Exhibit A hereto. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or depository rule or usage. The Issuer shall approve the form of the Notes and any notation, legend or endorsement on them. Each
Note shall be dated the date of its issuance and shall show the date of its authentication. 
 The terms and provisions
contained in the Notes, a form of which is annexed hereto as Exhibit A, shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this First Supplemental Indenture and, to the extent applicable, the Issuer, the Subsidiary Guarantors and
the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this First Supplemental Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. 
 (b) Global Notes. Notes issued in global form shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A (the “Global Note”) attached hereto (including the Global Note Legend
thereon). Notes issued in definitive form shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (but without the Global Note Legend thereon). Each Global Note shall provide that it shall represent up to the aggregate principal
amount of Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as applicable, to reflect exchanges and redemptions. Any endorsement
of a Global Note to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby shall be made by the Trustee or the Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, in accordance with
instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.6 hereof. 
 (c) Terms. The aggregate principal
amount of Notes that may be authenticated and delivered under this First Supplemental Indenture is unlimited. 
 The Notes shall
be subject to repurchase by the Issuer pursuant to a Change of Control Offer as provided in Section 4.14 hereof or an Asset Disposition Offer as provided under Section 4.15 hereof. The Notes shall not be redeemable, other than as provided
in Article III. 
 Additional Notes ranking pari passu with the Notes issued on the Issue Date may be created and
issued from time to time by the Issuer without notice to or consent of the Holders and shall be consolidated with and form a single class with the Notes issued on the Issue Date and shall have the same terms as to status, redemption or otherwise as
the Notes issued on the Issue Date; provided that the Issuer’s ability to issue Additional Notes shall be subject to the Issuer’s compliance with Section 4.12 hereof. Any Additional Notes shall be issued with the benefit of an
indenture supplemental to this First Supplemental Indenture. 
 SECTION 2.2. Execution and Authentication; Aggregate
Principal Amount. 
 At least one Officer shall execute the Notes for the Issuer by manual or facsimile signature.


  
 -42-








 If an Officer whose signature is on a Note or a Subsidiary Guarantee was an Officer at the
time of such execution but no longer holds that office or position at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note, the Note shall nevertheless be valid. 
 A Note shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee manually or by facsimile signs the certificate of authentication on the Note. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the
Note has been authenticated under this First Supplemental Indenture. 
 The Trustee shall authenticate (i) Notes for
original issue on the Issue Date in the aggregate principal amount not to exceed $700,000,000 and (ii) subject to Section 4.12, Additional Notes, in each case, upon a written order of the Issuer in the form of an Officers’ Certificate
(an “Authentication Order”). Each such Authentication Order shall specify the amount of Notes to be authenticated and the date on which the Notes are to be authenticated, whether the Notes are to be Notes or Additional Notes and
whether the Notes are to be issued as Definitive Notes or Global Notes or such other information as the Trustee may reasonably request. Any Additional Notes shall be part of the same issue as the Notes being issued on the Issue Date and will vote on
all matters as one class with the Notes being issued on the Issue Date, including, without limitation, waivers, amendments, redemptions, Change of Control Offers and Asset Disposition Offers. For the purposes of this First Supplemental Indenture,
except for Section 4.12, references to the Notes include Additional Notes, if any. In addition, with respect to authentication pursuant to clause (ii) of the first sentence of this paragraph, the first such Authentication Order from the
Issuer shall be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel of the Issuer in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee stating that the issuance of the Additional Notes complies with this First Supplemental Indenture and has been duly authorized by the
Issuer. 
 The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent (the “Authenticating Agent”) reasonably acceptable
to the Issuer to authenticate Notes. Unless otherwise provided in the appointment, an Authenticating Agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this First Supplemental Indenture to authentication by the Trustee
includes authentication by such Authenticating Agent. An Authenticating Agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with the Issuer or with any Affiliate of the Issuer. 
 The Notes shall be issuable in fully registered form only, without coupons, in denominations of at least $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess of $2,000. 

SECTION 2.3. Registrar and Paying Agent. 
 The Issuer shall maintain an office or agency where (a) Notes may be presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange (“Registrar”), (b) Notes may be
presented or surrendered for payment (“Paying Agent”) and (c) notices and demands to or upon the Issuer in respect of the Notes and this First Supplemental Indenture may be served. The Registrar shall keep a register of the
Notes and of their transfer and exchange. The Issuer, upon prior written notice to the Trustee, may have one or more co-Registrars and one or more additional paying agents reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. The term “Paying Agent”
includes any additional Paying Agent. The Issuer may act as Paying Agent, except that, for the purposes of payments on the Notes pursuant to Sections 4.14 and 4.15, neither the Issuer nor any Affiliate of the Issuer may act as Paying Agent.


  
 -43-








 The Issuer shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Agent not a party to
this First Supplemental Indenture, which agreement shall incorporate the provisions of the TIA and implement the provisions of this First Supplemental Indenture that relate to such Agent. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee, in advance, of the name
and address of any such Agent. If the Issuer fails to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, or fails to give the foregoing notice, the Trustee shall act as such. 
 The Issuer initially appoints the Trustee as Registrar, Paying Agent and agent for service of demands and notices in connection with the Notes, until such time as the Trustee has resigned or a successor
has been appointed. Any of the Registrar, the Paying Agent or any other agent may resign upon 30 days’ prior written notice to the Issuer. 
 SECTION 2.4. Paying Agent To Hold Assets in Trust. 
 The
Issuer shall require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that such Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of the Holders or the Trustee all assets held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of, premium,
or interest on, the Notes (whether such assets have been distributed to it by the Issuer or any other obligor on the Notes), and the Issuer and the Paying Agent shall notify the Trustee of any Default by the Issuer (or any other obligor on the
Notes) in making any such payment. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent to distribute all assets held by it to the Trustee and account for any assets disbursed and the Trustee may at any time during the continuance of any payment
Default, upon written request to a Paying Agent, require such Paying Agent to distribute all assets held by it to the Trustee and to account for any assets distributed. If the Issuer acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate
trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all assets held by it as Paying Agent. Upon distribution to the Trustee of all assets that shall have been delivered by the Issuer to the Paying Agent, the Paying Agent (if other than the Issuer) shall have
no further liability for such assets. 
 SECTION 2.5. Holder Lists. 

The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and
addresses of the Holders and shall otherwise comply with TIA § 312(a). If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuer shall furnish or cause the Registrar to furnish to the Trustee before each Record Date and at such other times as the
Trustee may request in writing a list as of such date and in such form as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Holders, which list may be conclusively relied upon by the Trustee. 

SECTION 2.6. Transfer and Exchange. 
 (a) Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes. A Global Note may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depository to a nominee of the Depository, by a nominee of the Depository to the Depository
or to another nominee of the Depository, or by the Depository or any such nominee to a successor Depository or a nominee of such successor Depository. All Global Notes will be exchanged by the Issuer for Definitive Notes if: 

  
 -44-








 (i) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee notice from the Depository that the
Depository is unwilling or unable to continue to act as Depository or that it is no longer a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and, in either case, a successor Depository is not appointed by the Issuer within 120 days after the date
of such notice from the Depository; 
 (ii) the Issuer in its sole discretion determines that the Global Notes
(in whole but not in part) should be exchanged for Definitive Notes and delivers a written notice to such effect to the Trustee; or 
 (iii) there has occurred and is continuing a Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes, and the Depository has notified the Issuer and the Trustee of its desire to exchange the Global Notes
for Definitive Notes. 
 Upon the occurrence of any of the preceding events in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above, Definitive Notes
shall be issued in such names as the Depository shall instruct the Trustee. Global Notes also may be exchanged or replaced, in whole or in part, pursuant to this Section 2.6 or Section 2.7 and 2.10 hereof. Every Note authenticated and
delivered in exchange for, or in lieu of, a Global Note or any portion thereof, pursuant to this Section 2.6 or Section 2.7 or 2.10 hereof, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Note. A Global Note may
not be exchanged for another Note other than as provided in this Section 2.6(a), however, beneficial interests in a Global Note may be transferred and exchanged as provided in Section 2.6(b) or (c) hereof. 

(b) Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in the Global Notes. The transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in the
Global Notes shall be effected through the Depository, in accordance with the provisions of this First Supplemental Indenture and the Applicable Procedures. Beneficial interests in any Global Note may be transferred to Persons who take delivery
thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in a Global Note. No written orders or instructions shall be required to be delivered to the Registrar to effect the transfers described in this Section 2.6(b) and Section 2.6(d) hereof.

 (c) Transfer or Exchange of Beneficial Interests for Definitive Notes. If any holder of a beneficial interest in a
Global Note proposes to exchange such beneficial interest for a Definitive Note or to transfer such beneficial interest to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a Definitive Note, then, upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in
Section 2.6(b) hereof, the Trustee will cause the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Global Note to be reduced accordingly pursuant to Section 2.6(g) hereof, and the Issuer will execute and the Trustee will authenticate and
deliver to the Person designated in the instructions a Definitive Note in the appropriate principal amount. Any Definitive Note issued in exchange for a beneficial interest pursuant to this Section 2.6(c) will be registered in such name or
names and in such authorized denomination or denominations as the holder of such beneficial interest requests through instructions to the Registrar from or through the Depository and the Participant or Indirect Participant. The Trustee will deliver
such Definitive Notes to the Persons in whose names such Notes are registered. 

  
 -45-








 (d) Transfer and Exchange of Definitive Notes for Beneficial Interests in the Global
Notes. A Holder of a Definitive Note may exchange such Note for a beneficial interest in a Global Note or transfer such Definitive Notes to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in a Global Note at any time.
Upon receipt of a request for such an exchange or transfer, the Trustee shall cancel the applicable Definitive Note and increase or cause to be increased the aggregate principal amount of one of the Global Notes. 

(e) Transfer and Exchange of Definitive Notes for Definitive Notes. Upon request by a Holder of Definitive Notes and such
Holder’s compliance with the provisions of this Section 2.6(e), the Registrar shall register the transfer or exchange of Definitive Notes. Prior to such registration of transfer or exchange, the requesting Holder shall present or surrender
to the Registrar the Definitive Notes duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instruction of transfer in form satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed by such Holder or by its attorney, duly authorized in writing. In addition, the requesting
Holder shall provide any additional certifications, documents and information, as applicable, required pursuant to the following provisions of this Section 2.6(e). A Holder of Definitive Notes may transfer such Notes to a Person who takes
delivery thereof in the form of a Definitive Note. 
 (f) Global Note Legend. Each Global Note shall bear a legend in
substantially the following form: 
 “THIS GLOBAL NOTE IS HELD BY THE DEPOSITORY (AS DEFINED IN THE FIRST SUPPLEMENTAL
INDENTURE GOVERNING THIS NOTE) OR ITS NOMINEE IN CUSTODY FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE BENEFICIAL OWNERS HEREOF, AND IS NOT TRANSFERABLE TO ANY PERSON UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES EXCEPT THAT (I) THE TRUSTEE MAY MAKE SUCH NOTATIONS HEREON AS MAY BE
REQUIRED PURSUANT TO SECTION 2.6(g) OF THE FIRST SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE, (II) THIS GLOBAL NOTE MAY BE EXCHANGED IN WHOLE BUT NOT IN PART PURSUANT TO SECTION 2.6(a) OF THE FIRST SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE, (III) THIS GLOBAL NOTE MAY BE DELIVERED TO THE
TRUSTEE FOR CANCELLATION PURSUANT TO SECTION 2.11 OF THE FIRST SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE AND (IV) THIS GLOBAL NOTE MAY BE TRANSFERRED TO A SUCCESSOR DEPOSITORY WITH THE PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT OF THE ISSUER. UNLESS AND UNTIL IT IS EXCHANGED IN WHOLE OR
IN PART FOR NOTES IN DEFINITIVE FORM, THIS NOTE MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT AS A WHOLE 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. UNLESS THIS CERTIFICATE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY (55 WATER STREET, NEW YORK, NEW YORK) (“DTC”) TO
THE ISSUER OR ITS AGENTS FOR REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER, EXCHANGE OR PAYMENT, AND ANY CERTIFICATE ISSUED IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF CEDE & CO. OR SUCH OTHER 

  
 -46-








 
NAME AS MAY BE REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC (AND ANY PAYMENT IS MADE TO CEDE & CO. OR SUCH OTHER ENTITY AS MAY BE REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC),
ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL INASMUCH AS THE REGISTERED OWNER HEREOF, CEDE & CO., HAS AN INTEREST HEREIN.” 

(g) Cancellation and/or Adjustment of Global Notes. At such time as all beneficial interests in a particular Global Note have been
exchanged for Definitive Notes or a particular Global Note has been redeemed, repurchased or canceled in whole and not in part, each such Global Note shall be returned to or retained and canceled by the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.11
hereof. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note or for Definitive
Notes, the principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note shall be reduced accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by the Depository at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such reduction; and
if the beneficial interest is being exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note, such other Global Note shall be increased accordingly and an endorsement shall
be made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by the Depository at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such increase. 
 (h)
General Provisions Relating to Transfers and Exchanges. 
 (i) To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the
Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.2 hereof or at the Registrar’s request. 

(ii) No service charge shall be made to a holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Note or to a Holder of a Definitive Note for any
registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes or similar governmental charge
payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 2.7, 2.10, 3.8, 4.14, 4.15 and 9.5 hereof). 
 (iii) Neither the
Registrar nor the Issuer shall be required to register the transfer of or exchange any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. 

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


  
 -47-








 (v) The Issuer shall not be required (A) to issue, to register the transfer of or to
exchange any Notes during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of any selection of Notes for redemption under Section 3.2 hereof and ending at the close of business on the day of selection, (B) to register
the transfer of or to exchange any Note so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part or (C) to register the transfer of or to exchange a Note between a Record Date and the next
succeeding Interest Payment Date. 
 (vi) Prior to due presentment for the registration of a transfer of any Note, the Trustee,
any Agent and the Issuer may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and premium, if any), and interest on such Notes and for all other
purposes, and none of the Trustee, any Agent or the Issuer shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 (vii) Upon surrender
for registration of transfer of any Note at the office or agency of the Issuer designated pursuant to Section 4.2 hereof, the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and mail, in the name of the designated transferee or
transferees, one or more replacement Notes of any authorized denomination or denominations of a like aggregate principal amount. 
 (viii) At the option of the Holder, Notes may be exchanged for other Notes of any authorized denomination or denominations of a like aggregate principal amount upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged
at the office or agency of the Issuer designated pursuant to Section 4.2 hereof. Whenever any Global Notes or Definitive Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and mail, the
replacement Global Notes or Definitive Notes which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.2 hereof. 
 (ix) All certifications, certificates and Opinions of Counsel required to be submitted to the Registrar pursuant to this Section 2.6 to effect a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted
by facsimile. 
 SECTION 2.7. Replacement Notes. 

If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or if the Holder of a Note claims that the Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully
taken, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Note and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall execute a Subsidiary Guarantee thereon if the Trustee’s requirements are met. If required by the Trustee or the Issuer, such
Holder must provide an indemnity bond or other indemnity of reasonable tenor, sufficient in the reasonable judgment of the Issuer, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee, to protect the Issuer, the Subsidiary Guarantors, the Trustee or any Agent
from any loss which any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. Every replacement Note shall constitute an additional obligation of the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors. 
 SECTION 2.8. Outstanding Notes. 
 Notes outstanding at any
time are all the Notes that have been authenticated by the Trustee except those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in 

  
 -48-








 
the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof and those described in this Section 2.8 as not outstanding. Subject to the provisions of
Section 2.9, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or any of its Affiliates holds the Note. 
 If a
Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.7 (other than a mutilated Note surrendered for replacement), it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a bona fide
purchaser for value. A mutilated Note ceases to be outstanding upon surrender of such Note and replacement thereof pursuant to Section 2.7. 
 If on a Redemption Date or the Maturity Date the Paying Agent (other than the Issuer, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds U.S. Legal Tender or U.S. Government Obligations sufficient to pay
all of the principal, premium, if any, and interest due on the Notes payable on that date and is not prohibited from paying such money to the Holders thereof pursuant to the terms of this First Supplemental Indenture, then on and after that date
such Notes shall be deemed not to be outstanding and interest on them shall cease to accrue. 
 SECTION 2.9. Treasury
Notes. 
 In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any
direction, waiver, consent or notice, Notes owned by the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor or an Affiliate of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor shall be considered as though they are not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining
whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes which a Trust Officer of the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so considered. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee, in writing, when, to
its knowledge, any of its Affiliates repurchase or otherwise acquire Notes, of the aggregate principal amount of such Notes so repurchased or otherwise acquired and such other information as the Trustee may reasonably request and the Trustee shall
be entitled to rely thereon. 
 SECTION 2.10. Temporary Notes. 

Until Definitive Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Notes upon receipt of
an Authentication Order. The Officers’ Certificate shall specify the amount of temporary Notes to be authenticated and the date on which the temporary Notes are to be authenticated. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of
Definitive Notes but may have variations that the Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Notes and so indicate in the Officers’ Certificate. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer shall prepare, the Trustee shall authenticate and the
Subsidiary Guarantors shall execute Subsidiary Guarantees on, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, Definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes. 
 SECTION 2.11. Cancellation. 
 The Issuer at any time may
deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee, or at the direction of the Trustee, the Registrar or the
Paying Agent, and no one else, shall cancel and, at the written direction of the Issuer, shall dispose, in its customary manner, of all Notes surrendered for transfer, exchange, payment or 

  
 -49-








 
cancellation. The Trustee shall maintain a record of all canceled Notes. Subject to Section 2.7, the Issuer may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or delivered to the
Trustee for cancellation. If the Issuer acquires any of the Notes, such acquisition shall not operate as a redemption or satisfaction of the Indebtedness represented by such Notes unless and until the same are surrendered to the Trustee for
cancellation pursuant to this Section 2.11. 
 SECTION 2.12. CUSIP Number. 

The Issuer in issuing the Notes may use a “CUSIP” number, and, if so, the Trustee shall use the CUSIP number in notices of
redemption or exchange as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, that no representation is hereby deemed to be made by the Trustee as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP number printed in the notice or on the Notes, and
that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes. The Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the CUSIP number. 
 SECTION 2.13. Deposit of Monies. 
 Prior to 11:00 a.m.
New York City time on each Interest Payment Date, Maturity Date, Redemption Date, Change of Control Payment Date and Asset Disposition Purchase Date, the Issuer shall have deposited with the Paying Agent in immediately available funds money
sufficient to make cash payments, if any, due on such Interest Payment Date, Maturity Date, Redemption Date, Change of Control Payment Date and Asset Disposition Purchase Date, as the case may be, in a timely manner which permits the Paying Agent to
remit payment to the Holders on such Interest Payment Date, Maturity Date, Redemption Date, Change of Control Payment Date and Asset Disposition Purchase Date, as the case may be. 

SECTION 2.14. Designation. 
 The Indebtedness evidenced by the Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees is hereby irrevocably designated as “senior indebtedness” or such other term denoting seniority for the purposes of any
other existing or future Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be, which the Issuer or such Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be, makes subordinate to any senior (or such other term denoting seniority)
indebtedness of such Person. 
 ARTICLE III. 
 REDEMPTION 
 SECTION 3.1. Notices to Trustee. 

If the Issuer elects to redeem Notes pursuant to Paragraph 5 of the Notes, it shall notify the Trustee and the Paying Agent in
writing of the Redemption Date and the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed. 
 The Issuer shall give each notice
provided for in this Section 3.1 60 days before the Redemption Date (unless a shorter notice period shall be satisfactory to the Trustee, as evidenced in a writing signed on behalf of the Trustee), together with an Officers’
Certificate stating that such redemption shall comply with the conditions contained herein and in the Notes. 

  
 -50-








 SECTION 3.2. Selection of Notes To Be Redeemed. 

If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, selection of such Notes, or portions thereof, for redemption will be made by
the Trustee in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes are listed or, if the Notes are not then listed or admitted to trading on a national securities exchange, on a pro rata
basis, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee in its sole discretion shall deem fair and appropriate. No Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less shall be redeemed in part. Notice of redemption shall be mailed by first-class mail at
least 30 but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at its registered address. If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to such Note shall state the portion of
the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. A new Note in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Note. On and after the applicable Redemption
Date, interest will cease to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption unless the Issuer shall default in payment thereof. 
 SECTION 3.3. Optional Redemption. 
 (a) Except as set forth in
Section 3.3(b) and (c), the Issuer will not be entitled to redeem the Notes at its option prior to May 1, 2017. The Notes will be redeemable, at the Issuer’s option, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, on and after
May 1, 2017, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at the following Redemption Prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount thereof) if redeemed during the twelve-month period commencing on May 1 of the
years set forth below, plus, in each case, unpaid accrued interest thereon to the Redemption Date:

	 2018
	  	 	101.406	% 
	 2019 and thereafter
	  	 	100.000	% 

 (b) At any time, or from time to time, on or prior to May 1, 2016, the Issuer may, at its option,
use an amount of cash not greater than the Net Cash Proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings to redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes (including any Additional Notes) issued under this First Supplemental Indenture at a
Redemption Price equal to 105.625% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to the Redemption Date; provided, that: (1) at least 65% of the aggregate principal
amount of Notes issued under this First Supplemental Indenture on the Issue Date remains outstanding immediately after giving effect to any such redemption; and (2) the Issuer makes such redemption not more than 120 days after the
consummation of any such Equity Offering. 
 (c) In addition, the Notes may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at any time prior
to May 1, 2017 at the option of the Issuer upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice mailed by first class mail to each Holder at its registered address, at a Redemption

holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date). 
 SECTION 3.4.
Special Mandatory Redemption. 
 (a) If a Mandatory Redemption Event occurs, then on the Special Mandatory
Redemption Date, the Issuer will redeem all and not less than all the Notes then outstanding at a redemption price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the Special
Mandatory Redemption Date (the “Special Mandatory Redemption Price”). 
 (b) The Issuer shall promptly, and in
any event not more than three Business Days after the occurrence of a Mandatory Redemption Event, deliver notice of the Special Mandatory Redemption to the Trustee, who shall then promptly deliver such notice to each Holder of Notes at its
registered address. On or prior to the Special Mandatory Redemption Date, the Issuer will deposit with the Trustee an amount of cash sufficient to pay the Special Mandatory Redemption Price. Prior to any such deposit of cash with the Trustee to
fulfill the Special Mandatory Redemption Price or the consummation of the Acquisition, the Issuer shall maintain the net proceeds received from the issuance and sale of the Notes on hand at all times in cash or Cash Equivalents. 

SECTION 3.5. Notice of Redemption. 
 In connection with a redemption pursuant to Section 3.3, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a Redemption Date, the Issuer shall mail or cause to be mailed a notice of redemption
by first class mail to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at its registered address, with a copy to the Trustee and any Paying Agent. At the Issuer’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Issuer’s name and at the
Issuer’s expense. The Issuer shall provide such notices of redemption to the Trustee at least three Business Days before the intended mailing date. 
 Each notice of redemption shall identify (including the CUSIP number) the Notes to be redeemed and shall state: 
 (1) the Redemption Date; 
 (2) the Redemption Price and the amount
of unpaid accrued interest, if any, to be paid; 
 (3) the name and address of the Paying Agent; 

(4) the subparagraph of the Notes pursuant to which such redemption is being made; 

(5) that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the Redemption Price plus unpaid
accrued interest, if any; 

  
 -52-








 (6) that, unless the Issuer defaults in making the redemption payment,
interest on Notes or applicable portions thereof called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the Redemption Date, and the only remaining right of the Holders of such Notes is to receive payment of the Redemption Price plus unpaid accrued
interest as of the Redemption Date, if any, upon surrender to the Paying Agent of the Notes redeemed; 
 (7) if
any Note is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Note to be redeemed and that, after the Redemption Date, and upon surrender of such Note, a new Note or Notes in the aggregate principal amount equal to the unredeemed
portion thereof will be issued; and 
 (8) if fewer than all the Notes are to be redeemed, the identification of
the particular Notes (or portion thereof) to be redeemed, as well as the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be redeemed and the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be outstanding after such partial redemption. 

The Issuer will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations
thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the purchase of Notes. 
 SECTION 3.6.
Effect of Notice of Redemption. 
 Once notice of redemption is mailed in accordance with Section 3.5,
such notice of redemption shall be irrevocable and Notes called for redemption shall become due and payable on the Redemption Date and at the Redemption Price plus unpaid accrued interest, if any, as of such date. Upon surrender to the Trustee or
Paying Agent, such Notes called for redemption shall be paid at the Redemption Price plus unpaid accrued interest thereon to the Redemption Date, but installments of interest, the maturity of which is on or prior to the Redemption Date, shall be
payable to Holders of record at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates referred to in the Notes. Interest shall accrue on or after the Redemption Date and shall be payable only if the Issuer defaults in payment of the Redemption Price.

 SECTION 3.7. Deposit of Redemption Price. 

On or before the Redemption Date and in accordance with Section 2.13, the Issuer shall deposit with the Paying Agent U.S. Legal
Tender sufficient to pay the Redemption Price plus unpaid accrued interest, if any, of all Notes to be redeemed on that date. The Paying Agent shall promptly return to the Issuer any U.S. Legal Tender so deposited which is not required for that
purpose, except with respect to monies owed as obligations to the Trustee pursuant to Article VII. 
 Unless the Issuer fails to
comply with the preceding paragraph and defaults in the payment of such Redemption Price plus unpaid accrued interest, if any, interest on the Notes to be redeemed will cease to accrue on and after the applicable Redemption Date, whether or not such
Notes are presented for payment.

conduct of its business and the ownership of its properties, except for such noncompliance as could not singly or in the aggregate reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or results of operations of the

portions of any of the foregoing as the SEC may by rules and regulations prescribe) that are specified in Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act and applicable to a U.S. corporation within the time periods specified therein with respect to an
accelerated filer. In the event that the Issuer is not permitted to file such reports, documents and information with the SEC pursuant to the Exchange Act, the Issuer will nevertheless make available such Exchange Act information to the Trustee and
the Holders without cost to any Holder as if the Issuer were subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act within the time periods specified therein with respect to a non-accelerated filer.

any, on the Notes as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or which may affect the covenants or the performance of this First Supplemental Indenture; and (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) the Issuer
and each of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the
execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted. 
 SECTION 4.10. Limitation on Restricted
Payments. 
 The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, to:

Unrestricted Subsidiary of its Capital Stock or otherwise), 
 which amount in each case under this clause (iv) was included
in the calculation of the amount of Restricted Payments; provided, however, that no amount will be included under this clause (iv) to the extent it is already included in Consolidated Net Income.

 As of the Issue Date, each of the Issuer’s Subsidiaries will be Restricted
Subsidiaries. The Issuer will not permit any Unrestricted Subsidiary to become a Restricted Subsidiary except pursuant to the last sentence of the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary.” For purpose of designating any Restricted
Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, all outstanding Investments by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries (except to the extent repaid) in the Subsidiary so designated will be deemed to be Restricted Payments in an amount determined as set
forth in the last sentence of the definition of “Investment.” Such designation will be permitted only if a Restricted Payment in such amount would be permitted at such time, whether pursuant to the first paragraph of this Section 4.10
or under clause (12) of the second paragraph of this Section 4.10, or pursuant to the definition of “Permitted Investments,” and if such Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. Unrestricted
Subsidiaries will not be subject to any of the restrictive covenants set forth in this First Supplemental Indenture. 
 SECTION

 The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, enter into, make, amend or conduct any transaction (including making a payment to, the purchase, sale, lease or exchange of any property or the rendering of any service), contract, agreement or
understanding with or for the benefit of any Affiliate of the Issuer (an “Affiliate Transaction”) unless: 
 (1) the terms of such Affiliate Transaction are not materially less favorable to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those that could reasonably be expected to be obtained
in a comparable transaction at the time of such transaction in arm’s-length dealings with a Person who is not such an Affiliate or, if in the good faith judgment of the Issuer’s Board of Directors, no comparable transaction is available
with which to compare such Affiliate Transaction, such Affiliate Transaction is otherwise fair to the Issuer or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view; and 

(2) if such Affiliate Transaction involves an aggregate consideration in excess of $20.0 million, the terms of such
transaction have been approved by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the Issuer having no personal stake in such transaction, if any (and such majority determines that such Affiliate Transaction satisfies the criteria in clause
(1) above).

issued by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary for the benefit of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, permitted under Section 4.12; 
 (6) any transaction with a joint venture or similar entity which would constitute an Affiliate Transaction solely because the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary owns, directly or indirectly, an Equity
Interest in or otherwise controls such joint venture or similar entity; 
 (7) the issuance or sale of any
Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Issuer to or the receipt by the Issuer of any capital contribution from its shareholders; 
 (8) indemnities of officers, directors and employees of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries permitted by bylaw or statutory provisions and any employment agreement or other employee

provided, however, that any future amendment, modification, supplement, extension or renewal entered into after the Issue Date will be permitted only to the extent that its terms are not materially more disadvantageous, taken as a
whole, to the Holders of the Notes than the terms of the agreements in effect on the Issue Date; and 
 (11)
transactions with customers, clients, suppliers, or purchasers or sellers of goods or services, in each case in the ordinary course of business and otherwise in compliance with the terms of this First Supplemental Indenture; provided that in
the reasonable determination of the Board of Directors of the Issuer or the senior management of the Issuer, such transactions are on terms not materially less favorable to the Issuer, taken as a whole, than those that could reasonably be expected
to be obtained in a comparable transaction at such time on an arm’s-length basis from a Person that is not an Affiliate of the Issuer;

 (12) transactions with a Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary) that
is an Affiliate of the Issuer solely because the Issuer owns, directly or through a Restricted Subsidiary, an Equity Interest in such Person; 
 (13) transactions between the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary and any Person, a director of which is also a director of the Issuer or any direct or indirect Subsidiary of the Issuer, and such director
is the sole cause for such Person to be deemed an Affiliate of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that such director shall abstain from voting as a director of the Issuer or such direct or indirect parent
company, as the case may be, on any matter involving such other Person; and 
 (14) transactions in which the
Board of Directors of the Issuer has received a written opinion from an independent investment banking, accounting, engineering or appraisal firm of nationally recognized standing that such Affiliate Transaction is fair, from a financial standpoint,
to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary or is not materially less favorable than those that could reasonably be expected to be obtained in a comparable transaction at such time on an arm’s-length basis from a Person that is not an
Affiliate. 
 SECTION 4.12. Limitation on Incurrence of Indebtedness and Preferred Stock. 

The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, Incur any Indebtedness (including
Acquired Indebtedness) and the Issuer will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to issue Preferred Stock; provided, however, that the Issuer may Incur Indebtedness and any of the Subsidiary Guarantors may Incur Indebtedness
and issue Preferred Stock if on the date thereof: 
 (1) the Consolidated Coverage Ratio for the Issuer and its
Restricted Subsidiaries is at least 2.25 to 1.00, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of proceeds); and 
 (2) no Default would occur as a consequence of, and no Event of Default would be continuing following, Incurring the Indebtedness or transactions relating to such Incurrence. 

The first paragraph of this Section 4.12 will not prohibit the Incurrence of the following Indebtedness: 

(1) Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor Incurred pursuant to one or more Credit Facilities in an
aggregate amount not to exceed the greater of (i) $900.0 million or (ii) an amount equal to the sum of $150.0 million and 30.0% of the Issuer’s Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets determined as of the date of the Incurrence of
such Indebtedness after giving effect to the application of the proceeds therefrom; 
 (2) Guarantees by the
Issuer or Subsidiary Guarantors of Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be, Incurred in accordance with the provisions of this First Supplemental Indenture; provided that in the event such Indebtedness


  
 -65-








 
that is being Guaranteed is a Subordinated Obligation or a Guarantor Subordinated Obligation, then the related Guarantee shall be subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or the Subsidiary
Guarantee to at least the same extent as the Indebtedness being Guaranteed, as the case may be; 
 (3)
Indebtedness of the Issuer owing to and held by any Restricted Subsidiary or Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary owing to and held by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that (a) if the Issuer or a
Subsidiary Guarantor is the obligor of such Indebtedness and the obligee is not the Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor, such Indebtedness must be expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of the Notes or all obligations of such
Subsidiary Guarantor with respect to its Subsidiary Guarantee, as the case may be and (b) (i) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Capital Stock or any other event which results in any such Indebtedness being held by a Person other than
the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer and (ii) any sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person other than the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer shall be deemed, in each case, to constitute an
Incurrence of such Indebtedness by the Issuer or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, that was not permitted by this clause; 
 (4) Indebtedness represented by (a) the Notes issued on the Issue Date and all Subsidiary Guarantees, (b) the Existing Senior Notes and any other Indebtedness (other than the Indebtedness
described in clauses (1), (2) and 4(a)) outstanding on the Issue Date and (c) any Refinancing Indebtedness Incurred in respect of any Indebtedness described in this clause (4) or clause (5) or (7) or Incurred pursuant to the
first paragraph of this Section 4.12; 
 (5) Permitted Acquisition Indebtedness; 

(6) Indebtedness Incurred in respect of (a) self-insurance obligations, bid, appeal, reimbursement, performance,
surety and similar bonds and completion guarantees provided by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary in the ordinary course of business and any Guarantees or letters of credit functioning as or supporting any of the foregoing bonds or obligations
and (b) obligations represented by letters of credit for the account of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary in order to provide security for workers’ compensation claims (in the case of clauses (a) and (b) other than for an
obligation for money borrowed); 
 (7) Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary represented by
Capitalized Lease Obligations (whether or not incurred pursuant to Sale/Leaseback Transactions) or other Indebtedness incurred or assumed in connection with the acquisition, construction, improvement or development of real or personal, movable or
immovable, property, in each case Incurred for the purpose of financing, refinancing, renewing, defeasing or refunding all or any part of the purchase price or cost of acquisition, construction, improvement or development of property used in the
business of the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided that the aggregate principal amount incurred by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary pursuant to this clause (7) and any Refinancing Indebtedness Incurred under clause
(4)(c) above to refinance any Indebtedness originally Incurred under 

  
 -66-








 
this clause (7) outstanding at any time shall not exceed the greater of (x) $50.0 million and (y) 2.0% of the Issuer’s Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets; and
provided further that the principal amount of any Indebtedness permitted under this clause (7) did not in each case at the time of Incurrence exceed the Fair Market Value, as determined in accordance with the definition of such term, of
the acquired or constructed asset or improvement so financed; 
 (8) Capital Stock (other than Disqualified
Stock) of the Issuer or of any of the Subsidiary Guarantors; 
 (9) Indebtedness of Foreign Subsidiaries if, at
the time of Incurrence and after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of all Indebtedness of Foreign Subsidiaries Incurred pursuant to this clause (9) and then outstanding does not exceed the greater of $30.0 million and an
amount equal to 10% of the total assets of such Foreign Subsidiaries; and 
 (10) in addition to the items
referred to in clauses (1) through (9) above, Indebtedness of the Issuer and its Subsidiary Guarantors in an aggregate outstanding principal amount which, when taken together with the principal amount of all other Indebtedness Incurred
pursuant to this clause (10) and then outstanding, will not at any time exceed the greater of $120.0 million or 5.0% of the Issuer’s Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets, determined as of the date of Incurrence of such Indebtedness
after giving effect to such Incurrence and the application of the proceeds therefrom. 
 For purposes of determining compliance
with, and the outstanding principal amount of any particular Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to and in compliance with, this Section 4.12: 
 (1) in the event an item of that Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the types of Indebtedness described in the first and second paragraphs of this Section 4.12, the Issuer, in its
sole discretion, will be permitted to divide and classify such item of Indebtedness on the date of Incurrence and, subject to clause (2) below may later classify, reclassify or redivide all or a portion of such item of Indebtedness, in any
manner that complies with this Section 4.12; 
 (2) all Indebtedness outstanding on the date of this First
Supplemental Indenture under the Senior Secured Credit Agreement shall be deemed Incurred on the Issue Date under clause (1) of the second paragraph of this Section 4.12; 

(3) Guarantees of, or obligations in respect of letters of credit supporting, Indebtedness which is otherwise included in
the determination of a particular amount of Indebtedness shall not be included; 
 (4) if obligations in respect
of letters of credit are Incurred pursuant to a Credit Facility and are being treated as Incurred pursuant to clause (1) of the second paragraph above and the letters of credit relate to other Indebtedness, then such other Indebtedness shall
not be included; 

  
 -67-








 (5) the principal amount of any Disqualified Stock of the Issuer or a
Restricted Subsidiary, or Preferred Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Subsidiary Guarantor, will be equal to the greater of the maximum mandatory redemption or repurchase price (not including, in either case, any redemption or
repurchase premium) or the liquidation preference thereof; 
 (6) Indebtedness permitted by this
Section 4.12 need not be permitted solely by reference to one provision permitting such Indebtedness but may be permitted in part by one such provision and in part by one or more other provisions of this Section 4.12 permitting such
Indebtedness; and 
 (7) the amount of Indebtedness issued at a price that is less than the principal amount
thereof will be equal to the amount of the liability in respect thereof determined in accordance with GAAP. 
 Accrual of
interest, accrual of dividends, the amortization of debt discount or the accretion of accreted value, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness, the payment of dividends in the form of additional shares of Preferred Stock or
Disqualified Stock and unrealized losses, charges or other similar obligations in respect of Hedging Obligations (including those resulting from the application of Accounting Standards Codification No. 815) will not be deemed to be an
Incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of this Section 4.12. The Issuer will not permit any of its Unrestricted Subsidiaries to Incur any Indebtedness, or issue any shares of Disqualified Stock, other than Non-Recourse Debt. 

If at any time an Unrestricted Subsidiary becomes a Restricted Subsidiary, any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary shall be deemed to be
Incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary as of such date (and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be Incurred as of such date under this Section 4.12, the Issuer shall be in Default of this Section 4.12). 

For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the Incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S.
dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was Incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness, or first
committed, in the case of revolving credit Indebtedness; provided that if such Indebtedness is Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. dollar-denominated
restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S. dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such
refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.12, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Issuer may Incur pursuant to this
Section 4.12 shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies. The principal amount of any Indebtedness Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if Incurred in a different currency from
the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such Refinancing Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing. 

  
 -68-








 This First Supplemental Indenture will not treat (1) unsecured Indebtedness as
subordinated or junior to secured Indebtedness merely because it is unsecured or (2) senior Indebtedness as subordinated or junior to any other senior Indebtedness merely because it has a junior priority with respect to the same collateral.

 SECTION 4.13. Limitation on Restrictions on Distributions from Restricted Subsidiaries. 

The Issuer will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, create or otherwise cause or permit to exist or become effective
any consensual encumbrance or consensual restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to: 
 (1) pay
dividends or make any other distributions on its Capital Stock or pay any Indebtedness or other obligations owed to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary (it being understood that the priority of any Preferred Stock in receiving dividends or
liquidating distributions prior to dividends or liquidating distributions being paid on Common Stock shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make distributions on Capital Stock); 

(2) make any loans or advances to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary (it being understood that the subordination of
loans or advances made to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary to other Indebtedness Incurred by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make loans or advances); or 

(3) sell, lease or transfer any of its property or assets to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary. 

The preceding provisions will not prohibit: 

(i) any encumbrance or restriction pursuant to or by reason of an agreement in effect at or entered into on the Issue
Date, including, without limitation, this First Supplemental Indenture in effect on such date; 
 (ii) any
encumbrance or restriction with respect to a Person pursuant to or by reason of an agreement relating to any Capital Stock or Indebtedness Incurred by a Person on or before the date on which such Person was acquired by the Issuer or another
Restricted Subsidiary (other than Capital Stock or Indebtedness Incurred as consideration in, or to provide all or any portion of the funds utilized to consummate, the transaction or series of related transactions pursuant to which such Person was
acquired by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary or in contemplation of the transaction) and outstanding on such date; provided, that any such encumbrance or restriction shall not extend to any assets or property of the Issuer or any other
Restricted Subsidiary other than the assets and property so acquired; 
 (iii) encumbrances and restrictions
contained in contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business, not relating to any Indebtedness, and that do not, individually or in the aggregate, detract from the value of, or from the ability of the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries
to realize the value of, property or assets of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary in any manner material to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary; 

  
 -69-








 (iv) any encumbrance or restriction with respect to an Unrestricted
Subsidiary pursuant to or by reason of an agreement that the Unrestricted Subsidiary is a party to entered into before the date on which such Unrestricted Subsidiary became a Restricted Subsidiary; provided, that such agreement was not
entered into in anticipation of the Unrestricted Subsidiary becoming a Restricted Subsidiary and any such encumbrance or restriction shall not extend to any assets or property of the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary other than the assets
and property so acquired; 
 (v) with respect to any Foreign Subsidiary, any encumbrance or restriction contained
in the terms of any Indebtedness or any agreement pursuant to which such Indebtedness was Incurred if either (1) the encumbrance or restriction applies only in the event of a payment default or a default with respect to a financial covenant in
such Indebtedness or agreement or (2) the Issuer determines that any such encumbrance or restriction will not materially affect the Issuer’s ability to make principal or interest payments on the Notes, as determined in good faith by the
Board of Directors of the Issuer, whose determination shall be conclusive; 
 (vi) any encumbrance or restriction
with respect to a Restricted Subsidiary pursuant to an agreement effecting a refunding, replacement or refinancing of Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to an agreement referred to in clauses (i) through (v) or clause (xii) of this
paragraph or this clause (vi) or contained in any amendment, restatement, modification, renewal, supplemental, refunding, replacement or refinancing of an agreement referred to in clauses (i) through (v) or clause (xii) of this
paragraph or this clause (vi); provided that the encumbrances and restrictions with respect to such Restricted Subsidiary contained in any such agreement taken as a whole are no less favorable in any material respect to the Holders of the
Notes than the encumbrances and restrictions contained in the agreements governing the Indebtedness being refunded, replaced or refinanced; 
 (vii) in the case of clause (3) of the first paragraph of this Section 4.13, any encumbrance or restriction: 

(a) that restricts in a customary manner the subletting, assignment or transfer of any property or asset that is subject
to a lease (including leases governing leasehold interests or farm-in agreements or farm-out agreements relating to leasehold interests in Oil and Gas Properties), license or similar contract, or the assignment or transfer of any such lease
(including leases governing leasehold interests or farm-in agreements or farm-out agreements relating to leasehold interests in Oil and Gas Properties), license (including, without limitation, licenses of intellectual property) or other contract;

 (b) contained in mortgages, pledges or other security agreements permitted under this First Supplemental
Indenture securing Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary to the extent such encumbrances or restrictions restrict the transfer of the property subject to such mortgages, pledges or other security agreements; 

  
 -70-








 (c) pursuant to customary provisions restricting dispositions of real
property interests set forth in any reciprocal easement agreements of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary; 

(d) restrictions on cash or other deposits imposed by customers under contracts entered into in the ordinary course of
business; or 
 (e) provisions with respect to the disposition or distribution of assets or property in operating
agreements, joint venture agreements, development agreements, area of mutual interest agreements and other agreements that are customary in the Oil and Gas Business and entered into in the ordinary course of business; 

(viii) any encumbrance or restriction contained in (a) purchase money obligations for property acquired in the
ordinary course of business and (b) Capitalized Lease Obligations permitted under this First Supplemental Indenture, in each case, that impose encumbrances or restrictions of the nature described in clause (3) of the first paragraph of
this Section 4.13 on the property so acquired; 
 (ix) any encumbrance or restriction with respect to a
Restricted Subsidiary (or any of its property or assets) imposed pursuant to an agreement entered into for the direct or indirect sale or disposition of all or a portion of the Capital Stock or assets of such Restricted Subsidiary (or the property
or assets that are subject to such restriction) pending the closing of such sale or disposition; 
 (x) any
customary encumbrances or restrictions imposed pursuant to any agreement of the type described in the definition of “Permitted Business Investment”; 
 (xi) encumbrances or restrictions arising or existing by reason of applicable law or any applicable rule, regulation or order; 

(xii) encumbrances or restrictions contained in agreements governing Indebtedness of the Issuer or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries permitted to be Incurred pursuant to an agreement entered into subsequent to the Issue Date in accordance with Section 4.12; provided that the provisions relating to such encumbrance or restriction contained in such
Indebtedness are not materially less favorable to the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, as determined by the Board of Directors of the Issuer in good faith, than the provisions contained in the Senior Secured Credit Agreement
and in this First Supplemental Indenture as in effect on the Issue Date; 
 (xiii) the issuance of Preferred
Stock by a Restricted Subsidiary or the payment of dividends thereon in accordance with the terms thereof; provided that issuance of such Preferred Stock is permitted pursuant to Section 4.12 and the terms of such Preferred Stock do not
expressly restrict the ability of a Restricted Subsidiary to pay dividends or make any other distributions on its Capital Stock (other than requirements to pay dividends or liquidation preferences on such Preferred Stock prior to paying any
dividends or making any other distributions on such other Capital Stock); 

  
 -71-








 (xiv) supermajority voting requirements existing under corporate charters,
bylaws, stockholders agreements and similar documents and agreements; 
 (xv) restrictions on cash or other
deposits or net worth imposed by customers under contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business; 

(xvi) any encumbrance or restriction contained in the Senior Secured Credit Agreement as in effect as of the Issue Date,
and in any amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings thereof; provided that such amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings,
replacements or refinancings are no more restrictive with respect to such dividend and other payment restrictions than those contained in the Senior Secured Credit Agreement as in effect on the Issue Date; and 

(xvii) any encumbrance or restriction that is no more restrictive than any encumbrance or restriction in the Senior
Secured Credit Agreement and that is contained in any agreement creating Hedging Obligations permitted from time to time hereunder. 
 SECTION 4.14. Change of Control. 
 If a Change of Control
occurs, unless the Issuer has previously or concurrently exercised its right to redeem all of the Notes pursuant to Section 3.3, each Holder will have the right to require the Issuer to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral
multiple of $1,000 in excess of $2,000) of such Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes 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). 
 Within 30 days following
any Change of Control, unless the Issuer has previously or concurrently exercised its right to redeem all of the Notes pursuant to Section 3.3, the Issuer will mail a notice (the “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder, with
a copy to the Trustee, stating: 
 (1) that a Change of Control has occurred and that such Holder has the right
to require the Issuer to purchase such Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount of such Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record
on a record date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date) (the “Change of Control Payment”); 
 (2) the repurchase date (which shall be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed) (the “Change of Control Payment Date”); 

(3) that any Note not properly tendered will remain outstanding and continue to accrue interest; 

  
 -72-








 (4) that unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the Change of Control
Payment, all Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer will cease to accrue interest on the Change of Control Payment Date; 
 (5) that Holders electing to have any Notes purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender such Notes, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase”
on the reverse of such Notes completed, to the paying agent specified in the notice at the address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date; 

(6) that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their tendered Notes and their election to require the Issuer to purchase
such Notes, provided that the paying agent receives, not later than the close of business on the 30th day following the date of the Change of Control notice, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the
Holder, the principal amount of Notes tendered for purchase, and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its tendered Notes and its election to have such Notes purchased; 

(7) that if the Issuer is repurchasing less than all of the Notes, the Holders of the remaining Notes will be issued new
Notes and such new Notes will be equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered. The unpurchased portion of the Notes must be equal to a minimum principal amount of $2,000 and an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess
of $2,000; and 
 (8) the procedures determined by the Issuer, consistent with this First Supplemental Indenture,
that a Holder must follow in order to have its Notes repurchased. 
 On the Change of Control Payment Date, the
Issuer will, to the extent lawful: 
 (1) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes (in a minimum
principal amount of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess of $2,000) properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer and not properly withdrawn; 

(2) deposit with the paying agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions of
Notes properly tendered and not properly withdrawn; and 
 (3) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee
the Notes so accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Issuer. 
 The paying agent will promptly mail or deliver to each Holder properly tendered and not properly withdrawn the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail
(or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided that each such new Note will be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000 or an
integral multiple of $1,000 in excess of $2,000. 

  
 -73-








 If the Change of Control Payment Date is on or after an interest record date and on or
before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no further interest will be payable to Holders who
tender pursuant to the Change of Control Offer. 
 The Change of Control provisions described above will be applicable whether
or not any other provisions of this First Supplemental Indenture are applicable. Except as described above with respect to a Change of Control, this First Supplemental Indenture does not contain provisions that permit the Holders to require that the
Issuer repurchase or redeem the Notes in the event of a takeover, recapitalization or similar transaction. 
 The Issuer shall
not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon 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 First Supplemental
Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer, (2) notice of redemption of all outstanding Notes has been given pursuant to
Section 3.3 unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable Redemption Price, or (3) in connection with or in contemplation of any Change of Control, the Issuer has made an offer to purchase (an “Alternate
Offer”) any and all Notes validly tendered at a cash price equal to or higher than the Change of Control Payment and has purchased all Notes properly tendered in accordance with the terms of such Alternate Offer. 

A Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, and conditioned upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, if a
definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time of making the Change of Control Offer. 
 The Issuer will
comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Notes as a result of a Change of Control. To the extent that the provisions
of any securities laws or regulations conflict with provisions of this First Supplemental Indenture, or compliance with the Change of Control provisions of this First Supplemental Indenture would constitute a violation of any such laws or
regulations, the Issuer will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations described in this First Supplemental Indenture by virtue of its compliance with such securities laws or
regulations. 
 If Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes validly tender and do not
withdraw such Notes in a Change of Control Offer or an Alternate Offer and the Issuer, or any third party making a Change of Control Offer in lieu of the Issuer as described above, purchases all of the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by
such Holders, the Issuer will have the right, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following such purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer described above, to redeem
all Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a Redemption Price in cash equal to the applicable Change of Control Payment plus, to the extent not included in the Change of Control Payment, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, 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).

 SECTION 4.15. Limitation on Sales of Assets and Subsidiary Stock.

 The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any Asset Disposition unless: 

(1) the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at the time of such Asset
Disposition at least equal to the Fair Market Value (such Fair Market Value to be determined on the date of contractually agreeing to such Asset Disposition) of the shares or other assets subject to such Asset Disposition; 

(2) at least 75% of the aggregate consideration received by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be,
from such Asset Disposition and all other Asset Dispositions since the Issue Date, on a cumulative basis, is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents or Additional Assets, or any combination thereof; and 

(3) except as provided in the next paragraph, an amount equal to 100% of the Net Available Cash from such Asset
Disposition is applied, within 365 days from the later of the date of such Asset Disposition or the receipt of such Net Available Cash, by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be: 

(a) to prepay, repay, redeem or purchase Indebtedness of the Issuer under the Senior Secured Credit Agreement, any other
Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor that is secured by a Lien permitted to be Incurred under this First Supplemental Indenture or Indebtedness (other than Disqualified Stock) of any Wholly-Owned Subsidiary that is not a Subsidiary
Guarantor (in each case, excluding Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer); provided, however, that, in connection with any prepayment, repayment, redemption or purchase of Indebtedness pursuant to this clause
(a), the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary will retire such Indebtedness and will cause the related commitment (if any) to be permanently reduced in an amount equal to the principal amount so prepaid, repaid, redeemed or purchased; 

(b) to invest in or acquire Additional Assets; or 

(c) to prepay, repay, redeem or purchase any other Senior Indebtedness (and to correspondingly reduce commitments, if any,
with respect thereto); provided, however, that the Issuer shall equally and ratably reduce prepay, repay, redeem or purchase Notes, through open-market purchases (to the extent such purchases are at or above 100% of the principal
amount thereof) or by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth below for an Asset Disposition Offer) to all Holders to purchase their Notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the amount of accrued but unpaid interest,
if any, on the amount of Notes that would otherwise be prepaid. 

  
 -75-








 Pending the final application of any such Net Available Cash in accordance with clauses
(a) through (c) above, the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries may temporarily reduce Indebtedness or otherwise invest such Net Available Cash in any manner not prohibited by this First Supplemental Indenture. 

Any Net Available Cash from Asset Dispositions that is not applied or invested as provided in the preceding paragraph will be deemed to
constitute “Excess Proceeds.” Not later than the 366th day from the later of the date of such Asset Disposition or the receipt of such Net Available Cash, if the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $20.0 million, the Issuer
will be required to make an offer (“Asset Disposition Offer”) to all Holders and, to the extent required by the terms of other Pari Passu Indebtedness, to all holders of other Pari Passu Indebtedness outstanding with similar
provisions requiring the Issuer to make an offer to purchase such Pari Passu Indebtedness with the proceeds from any Asset Disposition (“Pari Passu Notes”) to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes and any such Pari Passu
Notes to which the Asset Disposition Offer applies that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds, at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount (or, in the event such Pari Passu Indebtedness of the Issuer was issued
with significant original issue discount, 100% of the accreted value thereof) of the Notes and Pari Passu Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, (or in respect of such Pari Passu Indebtedness, such lesser price, if any, as may be provided
for by the terms of such Indebtedness) 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), in accordance with the procedures set forth in this
First Supplemental Indenture or the agreements governing the Pari Passu Notes, as applicable, in each case in minimum principal amount of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess of $2,000. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes
surrendered by Holders thereof and holders of other Pari Passu Notes surrendered by holders or lenders, collectively, exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis on the basis of the
aggregate principal amount of tendered Notes and Pari Passu Notes (and when the Notes and Pari Passu Notes are in the form of one or more global notes, in as near a pro rata basis in accordance with the applicable procedures of DTC). To the extent
that the aggregate amount of Notes and Pari Passu Notes so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to an Asset Disposition Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Issuer may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for general corporate
purposes, subject to the other covenants contained in this First Supplemental Indenture. Upon completion of such Asset Disposition Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero. 

The Asset Disposition Offer will remain open for a period of 20 Business Days following its commencement, except to the extent that a
longer period is required by applicable law (the “Asset Disposition Offer Period”). No later than five Business Days after the termination of the Asset Disposition Offer Period (the “Asset Disposition Purchase
Date”), the Issuer will purchase the principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Notes required to be purchased pursuant to this Section 4.15 (the “Asset Disposition Offer Amount”) or, if less than the Asset Disposition
Offer Amount has been so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, all Notes and Pari Passu Notes validly tendered and not properly withdrawn in response to the Asset Disposition Offer. 

  
 -76-








 If the Asset Disposition Purchase Date is on or after an interest record date and on or
before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no further interest will be payable to Holders who
tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Disposition Offer. 
 On or before the Asset Disposition Purchase Date, the Issuer will, to
the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the Asset Disposition Offer Amount of Notes and Pari Passu Notes or portions of Notes and Pari Passu Notes so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to
the Asset Disposition Offer, or if less than the Asset Disposition Offer Amount has been validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, all Notes and Pari Passu Notes so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, in each case in minimum principal
amount of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess of $2,000. The Issuer will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Issuer in accordance with the
terms of this Section 4.15 and, in addition, the Issuer will deliver all certificates and notes required, if any, by the agreements governing the Pari Passu Notes. The Issuer or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, will promptly (but in any
case not later than five Business Days after the termination of the Asset Disposition Offer Period) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder or holder or lender of Pari Passu Notes, as the case may be, an amount equal to the purchase price of the
Notes or Pari Passu Notes so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn by such holder or lender, as the case may be, and accepted by the Issuer for purchase, and the Issuer will promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee, upon delivery of an
Officers’ Certificate from the Issuer, will authenticate and mail or deliver such new Note to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered; provided that each such new Note will be in a
minimum principal amount of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess of $2,000. In addition, the Issuer will take any and all other actions required by the agreements governing the Pari Passu Notes. Any Note not so accepted will be promptly
mailed or delivered by the Issuer to the Holder thereof. The Issuer will publicly announce the results of the Asset Disposition Offer on the Asset Disposition Purchase Date. 
 The Issuer will comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant
to an Asset Disposition Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with provisions of this Section 4.15, the Issuer will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be
deemed to have breached its obligations under this First Supplemental Indenture by virtue of its compliance with such securities laws or regulations. 
 For the purposes of clause (2) of the first paragraph of this Section 4.15, the following will be deemed to be cash: 

(1) the assumption by the transferee of any liabilities, as shown on the Issuer’s or such Restricted
Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet, of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary, including liabilities with respect to plugging and abandonment (other than Subordinated Obligations, Disqualified Stock, Guarantor Subordinated Obligations or
Disqualified Stock of any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Subsidiary Guarantor) and the 

  
 -77-








 
release of the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from all such liability in connection with such Asset Disposition in which case the Issuer will, without further action, be deemed to have
applied such deemed cash to Indebtedness in accordance with clause (3)(a) of the first paragraph of this Section 4.15; 
 (2) securities, notes or other obligations received by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary from the transferee that are converted by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash within 180 days
after receipt thereof; and 
 (3) any Designated Non-cash Consideration received by the Issuer or such Restricted
Subsidiary in an 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 3.0% of the
Issuer’s Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets 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. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the 75% limitation referred to in clause
(2) of the first paragraph of this Section 4.15 shall be deemed satisfied with respect to any Asset Disposition in which the cash or Cash Equivalents portion of the consideration received therefrom, determined in accordance with the
foregoing provision on an after-tax basis, is equal to or greater than what the after-tax proceeds would have been had such Asset Disposition complied with the aforementioned 75% limitation. 

The requirement of clause (3)(b) of the first paragraph of this Section 4.15 above shall be deemed to be satisfied if an
agreement (including a lease, whether a capital lease or an operating lease) committing to make the investments, acquisitions or expenditures referred to therein is entered into by the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiary within the specified time
period and such Net Available Cash is subsequently applied in accordance with such agreement within six months following such agreement. 
 The Issuer will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, engage in any Asset Swaps, unless: 
 (1) at the time of entering into such Asset Swap and immediately after giving effect to such Asset Swap, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would occur as a
consequence thereof; and 
 (2) in the event such Asset Swap involves the transfer by the Issuer or any
Restricted Subsidiary of assets having an aggregate Fair Market Value in excess of $20.0 million, the terms of such Asset Swap have been approved by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the Issuer. 

SECTION 4.16. Covenant Termination. 
 (a) From and after the occurrence of an Investment Grade Rating Event, the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries will no longer be subject to the provisions of this First Supplemental Indenture described
in Sections 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.15 and clause (3) of Section 5.1 hereof (collectively the “Eliminated Covenants”). 

  
 -78-








 (b) After the date on which the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries are not subject to
the Eliminated Covenants pursuant to Section 4.16(a), the Issuer may not designate any of its Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries pursuant to the second sentence of the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary.” 

SECTION 4.17. Limitation on Liens. 
 The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, Incur or suffer to exist any Lien (the “Initial Lien”) other than Permitted
Liens upon any of its property or assets (including Capital Stock of Restricted Subsidiaries), including any income or profits therefrom, whether owned on the date of this First Supplemental Indenture or acquired after that date, which Lien is
securing any Indebtedness, unless contemporaneously with the Incurrence of such Liens effective provision is made to secure the Indebtedness due under the Notes or, in respect of Liens on any Restricted Subsidiary’s property or assets, any
Subsidiary Guarantee of such Restricted Subsidiary, equally and ratably with (or senior in priority to in the case of Liens with respect to Subordinated Obligations or Guarantor Subordinated Obligations, as the case may be) the Indebtedness secured
by such Lien for so long as such Indebtedness is so secured. 
 Any Lien created for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes
pursuant to the preceding paragraph shall provide by its terms that such Lien shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release and discharge of the Initial Lien. 

SECTION 4.18. Additional Subsidiary Guarantees. 

If (a) any of the Issuer’s Restricted Subsidiaries that is not a Subsidiary Guarantor other than a Foreign Subsidiary guarantees
any Indebtedness under a Credit Facility or (b) any other Domestic Subsidiary that is not already a Subsidiary Guarantor guarantees any Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor, in each case, then the Issuer shall cause such
Restricted Subsidiary to become a Subsidiary Guarantor; provided that any Restricted Subsidiary that constitutes an Immaterial Subsidiary need not become a Subsidiary Guarantor until such time as it ceases to be an Immaterial Subsidiary. If
required to become a Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, such transferee or acquired or other Restricted Subsidiary shall within 30 days of such guarantee: 

(1) execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee pursuant to
which such Restricted Subsidiary shall unconditionally guarantee all of the Issuer’s obligations under the Notes and this First Supplemental Indenture on the terms set forth in this First Supplemental Indenture; and 

(2) deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel that such supplemental indenture has been duly authorized, executed and
delivered by such Restricted Subsidiary and constitutes a legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligation of such Restricted Subsidiary. Thereafter, such Restricted Subsidiary shall be a Subsidiary Guarantor for all purposes of this First
Supplemental Indenture.

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

 The Successor Issuer will succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right
and power of, the Issuer under this First Supplemental Indenture; and its predecessor Issuer, except in the case of a lease of all or substantially all its assets, will be released from all obligations under this First Supplemental Indenture and

 Notwithstanding the preceding clause (3), (x) any
Restricted Subsidiary may consolidate with, merge into or transfer all or part of its properties and assets to the Issuer and the Issuer may consolidate with, merge into or transfer all or part of its properties and assets to a Subsidiary Guarantor
and (y) the Issuer may merge with an Affiliate incorporated solely for the purpose of reincorporating the Issuer in another jurisdiction; provided that, in the case of a Restricted Subsidiary that consolidates with, merges into or

 ARTICLE VI. 
 REMEDIES 
 SECTION 6.1. Events of Default. 

An “Event of Default” means any of the following events: 

(1) default in any payment of interest on any Note when due, continued for 30 days; 

(2) default in the payment of principal of or premium, if any, on any Note when due at its Stated Maturity, upon optional
redemption, upon required repurchase (including pursuant to a Special Mandatory Redemption), upon declaration of acceleration or otherwise; 
 (3) failure by the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor to comply with its obligations under Section 5.1; 
 (4) failure by the Issuer to comply for 30 days after notice as provided below with any of its obligations under Sections 4.8, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.14, 4.15, 4.17 or 4.18 above (in each case, other
than a failure to purchase Notes which will constitute an Event of Default under clause (2) above); 
 (5)
failure by the Issuer to comply for 60 days (or 180 days in the case of a Reporting Failure) after notice as provided below with its other agreements contained in this First Supplemental Indenture; 

(6) default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured
or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries), other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or a
Restricted Subsidiary, whether such Indebtedness or guarantee now exists, or is created after the date of this First Supplemental Indenture, which default: 
 (a) is caused by a failure to pay principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on such Indebtedness prior to the expiration of the grace period provided in such Indebtedness (and any extensions of any
grace period) (“payment default”); or 
 (b) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness
prior to its Stated Maturity (the “cross acceleration provision”); 
 and, in each case, the principal amount of
any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a payment default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $50.0 million or more; 

  
 -82-








 (7) certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Issuer
or a Significant Subsidiary or group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together (as of the latest audited consolidated financial statements for the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary (the
“bankruptcy provisions”); 
 (8) failure by the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary or group of
Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together (as of the latest audited consolidated financial statements for the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary to pay final judgments aggregating in excess of $50.0
million (to the extent not covered by insurance by a reputable and creditworthy insurer as to which the insurer has not disclaimed coverage), which judgments are not paid or discharged, and there shall be any period of 60 consecutive days following
entry of such final judgment or decree during which a stay of enforcement of such final judgment or decree, by reason of pending appeal or otherwise, shall not be in effect (the “judgment default provision”); or 

(9) any Subsidiary Guarantee of a Significant Subsidiary or group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together (as of
the latest audited consolidated financial statements for the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries) would constitute a Significant Subsidiary ceases to be in full force and effect (except as contemplated by the terms of this First Supplemental
Indenture) or is declared null and void in a judicial proceeding or any Subsidiary Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary or group of Subsidiary Guarantors that, taken together (as of the latest audited consolidated financial statements of the
Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries) would constitute a Significant Subsidiary denies or disaffirms its obligations under this First Supplemental Indenture or its Subsidiary Guarantee. 
 However, a default under clauses (4) and (5) of this paragraph will not constitute an Event of Default until the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding
Notes notify the Issuer in writing and, in the case of a notice given by the Holders, the Trustee of the Default and the Issuer does not cure such Default within the time specified in clauses (4) and (5) of this paragraph after receipt of
such notice. 
 SECTION 6.2. Acceleration. 

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in clause (7) of Section 6.1) occurs and is continuing, the
Trustee by notice to the Issuer, or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes by notice to the Issuer and the Trustee, may, and the Trustee at the request of such Holders shall, declare the principal of, premium, if
any, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes to be due and payable. If an Event of Default described in clause (7) of Section 6.1 occurs and is continuing, the principal of, premium, if any, accrued and unpaid interest, if
any, on all the Notes will become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may waive all past defaults
(except with respect to nonpayment of principal, premium, or interest, if any) and rescind any such acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences if (1) rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of
competent jurisdiction and (2) all existing Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes that have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived.


  
 -83-








 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default specified in clause (6) of
Section 6.1 shall have occurred and be continuing, such Event of Default and any consequential acceleration (to the extent not in violation of any applicable law or in conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction)
shall be automatically rescinded if (i) the Indebtedness that is the subject of such Event of Default has been repaid or (ii) if the default relating to such Indebtedness is waived by the Holders of such Indebtedness or cured and if such
Indebtedness has been accelerated, then the Holders thereof have rescinded their declaration of acceleration in respect of such Indebtedness, in each case within 20 days after the declaration of acceleration with respect thereto, and (iii) any
other existing Events of Default, except nonpayment of principal, premium or interest on the Notes that became due solely because of the acceleration of the Notes, have been cured or waived. 

SECTION 6.3. Other Remedies. 
 If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy by proceeding at law or in equity to collect the payment of the principal of, premium, or interest, if any, on
the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this First Supplemental Indenture. 
 All rights of
action and claims under this First Supplemental Indenture or the Notes may be enforced by the Trustee even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder in
exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. No remedy is exclusive of any other remedy. All available remedies are
cumulative to the extent permitted by law. 
 SECTION 6.4. Waiver of Past Defaults. 

At any time prior to the declaration of acceleration of the Notes, the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount
of the Notes then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under this First Supplemental Indenture, except a Default or Event of Default
specified in Section 6.1(1) or (2) or in respect of any provision hereof which cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder so affected pursuant to Section 9.2. When a Default or Event of Default is so waived, it
shall be deemed cured and shall cease to exist. This Section 6.4 shall be in lieu of § 316(a)(1)(B) of the TIA and such § 316(a)(1)(B) of the TIA is hereby expressly excluded from this First Supplemental Indenture and the
Notes, as permitted by the TIA. 
 SECTION 6.5. Control by Majority. 

Holders of the Notes may not enforce this First Supplemental Indenture or the Notes except as provided in this Article VI and under the
TIA. The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or


  
 -84-








 
exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, provided, however, that the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction (a) that conflicts with any rule of law or this
First Supplemental Indenture, (b) that the Trustee reasonably determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder, or (c) that may expose the Trustee to personal liability for which reasonable indemnity provided to the
Trustee against such liability shall be deemed inadequate by the Trustee; provided, further, however, that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction or this
First Supplemental Indenture. This Section 6.5 shall be in lieu of § 316(a)(1)(A) of the TIA, and such § 316(a)(1)(A) of the TIA is hereby expressly excluded from this First Supplemental Indenture and the Notes, as permitted
by the TIA. 
 SECTION 6.6. Limitation on Suits. 

Subject to the provisions of this First Supplemental Indenture relating to the duties of the Trustee, if an Event of Default occurs and is
continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under this First Supplemental Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable
indemnity or security against any loss, liability or expense. 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 First Supplemental Indenture or
the Notes unless: 
 (1) such Holder has previously given the Trustee notice that an Event of Default is
continuing; 
 (2) Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes have requested the
Trustee to pursue the remedy; 
 (3) such Holder has offered the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against
any loss, liability or expense; 
 (4) the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the
receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity; and 
 (5) the Holders of a majority in principal
amount of the outstanding Notes have not waived such Event of Default or otherwise given the Trustee a direction that, in the opinion of the Trustee, is inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period. 

A Holder may not use this First Supplemental Indenture to prejudice the rights of any other Holders or to obtain priority or preference
over such other Holders. 
 SECTION 6.7. Right of Holders To Receive Payment. 

Notwithstanding any other provision in this First Supplemental Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Note to receive payment of the
principal of, premium and interest, if any, on such Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed or provided for in such Note, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after the respective due dates, is absolute and
unconditional and shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of the Holder. 

  
 -85-








 SECTION 6.8. Collection Suit by Trustee. 

If an Event of Default specified in clause (1) or (2) of Section 6.1 occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover
judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer, or any other obligor on the Notes for the whole amount of the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest remaining unpaid, together with interest on overdue
principal and, to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest on overdue installments of interest, in each case at the rate per annum provided for by the Notes and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and
expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel. 
 SECTION 6.9. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 
 The
Trustee may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
Trustee, its agents, counsel, accountants and experts) and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer or Restricted Subsidiaries (or any other obligor upon the Notes), their creditors or their property and shall be
entitled and empowered to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same, and any Custodian in any such judicial proceedings is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such
payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
Trustee, its agent and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.7. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding. 

SECTION 6.10. Priorities. 
 If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article VI it shall pay out such money in the following order: 
 First: to the Trustee for amounts due under Section 7.7; 
 Second: to Holders for interest accrued on the Notes, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for interest; 

Third: to Holders for the principal amounts (including any premium) owing under the Notes, ratably, without
preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for the principal (including any premium); and 
 Fourth: the balance, if any, to the Issuer. 

  
 -86-








 The Trustee, upon prior written notice to the Issuer, may fix a record date and payment date
for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section 6.10. 
 SECTION 6.11. Undertaking for
Costs. 
 In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this First Supplemental
Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, a court may in its discretion 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 6.11
does not apply to any suit by the Trustee, any suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 6.7, or a suit by a Holder or Holders of more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes. 

SECTION 6.12. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. 

If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this First Supplemental Indenture or any
Note and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case the Issuer, the Trustee and the Holders shall, subject to any determination in
such proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their former positions under this First Supplemental Indenture, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been
instituted. 
 ARTICLE VII. 
 TRUSTEE 
 SECTION 7.1. Duties of Trustee. 

(a) If an Event of Default has occurred, of which the Trustee is deemed to have notice, and is continuing, the Trustee may exercise such
of the rights and powers vested in it by this First Supplemental Indenture and shall use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise thereof as a prudent person would exercise or use in the conduct of his own affairs. 

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

(1) The Trustee need perform only those duties as are specifically set forth in this First Supplemental Indenture and no
covenants or obligations shall be implied in this First Supplemental Indenture that are adverse to the Trustee. The permissive right of the Trustee to do things enumerated in this First Supplemental Indenture shall not be construed as a duty.

 (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 First Supplemental Indenture. However, in the case of any such certificates or
opinions that by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this First Supplemental
Indenture. 

  
 -87-








 (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, the Trustee may not be
relieved from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that: 
 (1) This paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section 7.1. 
 (2) The Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Trust Officer, unless it is conclusively determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the Trustee was
negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts. 
 (3) The Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action
it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.2, 6.4 or 6.5. 

(d) No provision of this First Supplemental Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any
financial liability in the performance of any of its duties under this First Supplemental Indenture or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate
indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. 
 (e) Every provision of this First Supplemental
Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a), (b), (c) and (d) of this Section 7.1 and Section 7.2. 
 (f) The Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money or assets received by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the Issuer. Assets held in trust by the Trustee need not be
segregated from other assets except to the extent required by law. 
 SECTION 7.2. Rights of
Trustee. 
 Subject to Section 7.1: 

(a) The Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any document
believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person or Persons or to have been prepared and furnished pursuant to any of the provisions of this First Supplemental Indenture; and the Trustee shall be under no duty
to make any investigation as to any statement contained in any such instance, but may accept the same conclusive evidence of the truth and accuracy of such statement or the correctness of such opinions. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or
matter stated in the document. 
 (b) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may consult with
counsel of its selection and may require an Officers’ Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel, which shall conform to Sections 10.4 and 10.5. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance
on such advice or such Officers’ Certificate or Opinion of Counsel. 

  
 -88-








 (c) The Trustee may act through attorneys, agents, custodians or nominees
and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any attorney, agent, custodian or nominee appointed with due care. 
 (d) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action that it takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers conferred upon it by this First
Supplemental Indenture. 
 (e) The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters
stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into
such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled, upon reasonable notice to the Issuer, to examine the books, records, and premises of the Issuer,
personally or by agent or attorney and to consult with the officers and representatives of the Issuer, including the Issuer’s accountants and attorneys. 
 (f) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this First Supplemental Indenture at the request, order or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to
the provisions of this First Supplemental Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred by it in compliance with
such request, order or direction. 
 (g) The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect
of the performance of its powers and duties under this First Supplemental Indenture. 
 (h) Delivery of reports,
information and documents to the Trustee under Section 4.8 is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of the foregoing shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from
information contained therein, including the Issuer’s compliance with any of its covenants under this First Supplemental Indenture (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates). 

(i) Other than a consent revoked in accordance with Section 9.4, any action taken, or omitted to be taken, by the
Trustee in good faith pursuant to this First Supplemental Indenture upon the request or authority or consent of any Person who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is a Holder shall be conclusive and binding upon
every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the requesting or consenting Holder’s Note. 
 (j) The Trustee shall have no duty to inquire as to the performance of the Issuer’s covenants in Article IV hereof. 

  
 -89-








 SECTION 7.3. Individual Rights of Trustee. 

The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuer, any
of its respective Subsidiaries, or its respective Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Agent may do the same with like rights. However, the Trustee must comply with Sections 7.10 and 7.11. 

SECTION 7.4. Trustee’s Disclaimer. 

The Trustee makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this First Supplemental Indenture or the Notes, and it shall not be
accountable for the Issuer’s use of the proceeds from the Notes, and it shall not be responsible for any statement of the Issuer in this First Supplemental Indenture or the Notes other than the Trustee’s certificate of authentication.

 Under no circumstances shall the Trustee be liable in its individual capacity for the obligations evidenced by the Notes. In
accepting the trust hereby created, the Trustee acts solely as Trustee for the Holders and not in its individual capacity and all persons, including without limitation the Holders and the Issuer having any claim against the Trustee arising from this
First Supplemental Indenture shall look only to the funds and accounts held by the Trustee hereunder for payment except as otherwise provided herein. 
 SECTION 7.5. Notice of Default. 
 If a Default or an
Event of Default occurs and is continuing, of which the Trustee is deemed to have notice, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder notice of the uncured Default or Event of Default within 90 days after obtaining knowledge thereof. Except in the case of
a Default or an Event of Default in payment of principal of, premium or interest, if any, on, any Note, including an accelerated payment, a Default in payment on the Change of Control Payment Date pursuant to a Change of Control Offer or on the
Asset Disposition Purchase Date pursuant to an Asset Disposition Offer and a Default in compliance with Article V hereof, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as its Board of Directors, the executive committee of its Board of Directors
or a committee of its directors and/or Trust Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interest of the Holders. The foregoing sentence of this Section 7.5 shall be in lieu of the proviso to § 315(b) of
the TIA and such proviso to § 315(b) of the TIA is hereby expressly excluded from this First Supplemental Indenture and the Notes, as permitted by the TIA. 
 SECTION 7.6. Reports by Trustee to Holders. 
 Within 60
days after May 15 of each year beginning with 2014 and for so long as Notes remain outstanding, the Trustee shall, to the extent that any of the events described in TIA § 313(a) occurred within the previous twelve months, but not
otherwise, mail to each Holder a brief report dated as of such date that complies with TIA § 313(a). The Trustee also shall comply with TIA §§ 313(b), (c) and (d). 

A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to Holders shall be mailed to the Issuer. 

  
 -90-








 The Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee if the Notes become listed on any stock
exchange and the Trustee shall comply with TIA § 313(d). 
 SECTION 7.7. Compensation and
Indemnity. 
 The Issuer shall pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation for its services as has been
agreed to in writing signed by the Issuer and the Trustee. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuer shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it in connection with the performance of its duties under this First Supplemental Indenture. Such expenses shall include the reasonable fees and expenses of the Trustee’s agents, counsel, accountants
and experts. 
 The Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall indemnify each of the Trustee (or any predecessor Trustee) and
its agents, employees, stockholders, Affiliates and directors and officers for, and hold them each harmless against, any and all loss, liability, damage, claim or expense (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel), including taxes (other
than taxes based on the income of the Trustee) incurred by them except for such actions to the extent caused by any negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on their part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of
this First Supplemental Indenture including the reasonable costs and expenses of defending themselves against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of their rights, powers or duties under this First
Supplemental Indenture. The Trustee shall notify the Issuer promptly of any claim asserted against the Trustee for which it may seek indemnity, provided, however, that the failure of the Trustee to so notify the Issuer shall not
relieve the Issuer’s and Subsidiary Guarantors’ obligations to indemnify the Trustee as provided herein. At the Trustee’s sole discretion, the Issuer or such Subsidiary Guarantor shall defend the claim and the Trustee shall cooperate
and may participate in the defense; provided, however, that any settlement of a claim shall be approved in writing by the Trustee if such settlement would result in an admission of liability by the Trustee or if such settlement would
not be accompanied by a full release of the Trustee for all liability arising out of the events giving rise to such claim. Alternatively, the Trustee may at its option have separate counsel of its own choosing and the Issuer shall pay the reasonable
fees and expenses of such counsel. 
 To secure the Issuer’s and the Subsidiary Guarantors’ payment obligations in
this Section 7.7, the Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Notes on all assets or money held or collected by the Trustee, in its capacity as Trustee, except assets or money held in trust to pay principal of or premium, if any, or interest on
particular Notes. 
 When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in
Section 6.1(7) or (8) occurs, such expenses and the compensation for such services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law. 
 The provisions of this Section 7.7 shall survive the termination of this First Supplemental Indenture or the earlier resignation or removal of the Trustee. 

  
 -91-








 SECTION 7.8. Replacement of Trustee. 

The Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the Issuer. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may
remove the Trustee and appoint a successor Trustee with the Issuer’s consent, by so notifying the Issuer and the Trustee. The Issuer may 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 becomes incapable of acting. 
 If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Issuer shall notify each Holder of such event and shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee.
Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes may appoint a successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Issuer. 

A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuer. Immediately after
that, the retiring Trustee shall transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the Lien provided in Section 7.7, 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 First Supplemental Indenture. The Issuer shall mail notice of such successor Trustee’s appointment to each Holder. 

If a successor Trustee does not take office within 45 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the
Issuer or the Holders of at least 10% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes 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 any resignation or replacement of the Trustee pursuant to
this Section 7.8, the Issuer’s obligations under Section 7.7 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee. 
 SECTION 7.9. Successor Trustee by Merger, Etc. 
 If the
Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation without any further act shall, if such resulting,
surviving or transferee corporation is otherwise eligible under this First Supplemental Indenture, be the successor Trustee; provided, however, that such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this
Article VII. 

  
 -92-








 SECTION 7.10. Eligibility; Disqualification. 

This First Supplemental Indenture shall always have a Trustee who satisfies the requirement of TIA §§ 310(a)(1),
(2) and (5). The Trustee (or, in the case of a Trustee that is a corporation included in a bank holding company system, the related bank holding company) shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $150 million as set forth in its
most recent published annual report of condition and have a Corporate Trust Office in the City of New York. In addition, if the Trustee is a corporation included in a bank holding company system, the Trustee, independently of such bank holding
company, shall meet the capital requirements of TIA § 310(a)(2). 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 Issuer are outstanding, if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in TIA § 310(b)(1) are met. The
provisions of TIA § 310 shall apply to the Issuer, as obligor of the Notes. 
 SECTION 7.11. Preferential
Collection of Claims Against the Issuer. 
 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 therein. The provisions of TIA § 311 shall apply to the Issuer, as
obligor on the Notes. 
 SECTION 7.12. Force Majeure. 

In no event shall the Trustee be liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations under this First Supplemental
Indenture because of circumstances beyond the Trustee’s control, including, but not limited to, acts of God, flood, war (whether declared or undeclared), terrorism, fire, riot, embargo, government action, including any laws, ordinances,
regulations, governmental action or the like which delay, restrict or prohibit the providing of the services contemplated by this First Supplemental Indenture. 
 SECTION 7.13. Defaults and Events of Default. 
 The Trustee
shall not be required to take notice or be deemed to have notice of any Default, except failure of the Issuer to cause to be made any of the payments required to be made to the Trustee, unless the Trustee shall be specifically notified by a writing
of such Default by the Issuer or by the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of all Notes then outstanding delivered to the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee and, in the absence of such notice so delivered, the Trustee may
conclusively assume no Default exists. 

  
 -93-








 ARTICLE VIII. 
 DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE; DEFEASANCE 
 SECTION 8.1. Termination of
Issuer’s Obligations. 
 This First Supplemental Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further
effect (except as to surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of the Notes, as expressly provided for in this First Supplemental Indenture) as to all outstanding Notes when (a) either (i) all the Notes, theretofore
authenticated (except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes that have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Issuer and thereafter repaid to the Issuer or
discharged from such trust) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation or (ii) all Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable or will become due and payable within one year by reason of
the giving of a notice of redemption (including a notice of Special Mandatory Redemption) or otherwise and the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be irrevocably deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in
trust solely for such purpose, cash in U.S. dollars, U.S. Government Obligations, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on
the Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes to the date of maturity or redemption together with irrevocable instructions from the Issuer directing the Trustee to
apply such funds to the payment thereof at maturity or redemption, as the case may be; (b) the Issuer has paid all other sums payable under this First Supplemental Indenture by the Issuer; and (c) the Issuer has delivered to the Trustee an
Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that all conditions precedent under this First Supplemental Indenture relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this First Supplemental Indenture have been complied with;
provided, however, that such counsel may rely, as to matters of fact, on a certificate or certificates of officers of the Issuer. 
 The Issuer may, at its option and at any time, elect to have its obligations and the corresponding obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors discharged with respect to the outstanding Notes and Subsidiary
Guarantees (“Legal Defeasance”). Such Legal Defeasance means that the Issuer shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes, and satisfied all of its obligations with respect
to the Notes, except for: (1) the rights of Holders to receive payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes when such payments are due, (2) the Issuer’s obligations with respect to the Notes
concerning issuing temporary Notes, registration of Notes, mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and the maintenance of an office or agency for payments, (3) the rights, powers, trust, duties and immunities of the Trustee and the
Issuer’s obligations in connection therewith and (4) the Legal Defeasance provisions of this Section 8.1. In addition, the Issuer may, at its option and at any time, elect to terminate its obligations with respect to covenants
contained in Sections 4.4, 4.5, 4.8 and 4.10 through 4.18 and the operation of clauses (6), (7) (with respect to Significant Subsidiaries), (8) and (9) of Section 6.1 and the limitations described in clause (3) of the first
paragraph of Section 5.1 (“Covenant Defeasance”) and thereafter any omission to comply with such obligations shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes. The Issuer may exercise its Legal
Defeasance option notwithstanding its prior exercise of 

  
 -94-








 
its Covenant Defeasance option. In the event of Legal Defeasance, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default with respect thereto. In the event of Covenant
Defeasance, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in clause (4), (5), (6), (7) (with respect to only to Significant Subsidiaries), (8) or (9) of Section 6.1 or because of the failure
of the Issuer to comply with clause (3) of the first paragraph of Section 5.1. 
 In order to exercise
either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance: 
 (1) the Issuer must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in
trust, for the benefit of the Holders cash in U.S. dollars, U.S. Government Obligations, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants, to pay the
principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes on the stated date for payment thereof or on the applicable Redemption Date, as the case may be; 
 (2) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that (a) the Issuer has received from, or
there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (b) since the date of this First Supplemental Indenture, 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 Legal 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 Legal Defeasance had not occurred; 
 (3) in the
case of Covenant Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming 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; 

(4) no Default or Event of Default, of which the Trustee is deemed to have notice, shall have occurred and be continuing
on the date of such deposit or insofar as Events of Default under Section 6.1(7) or (8) from bankruptcy or insolvency events are concerned, at any time in the period ending on the 91st day after the date of deposit; 

(5) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default
under this First Supplemental Indenture or any other material agreement or instrument to which the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is bound; 

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

  
 -95-








 (7) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’
Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for or relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, have been complied with; provided, however, that such
counsel may rely, as to matters of fact, on a certificate or certificates of officers of the Issuer. 
 SECTION 8.2.
Application of Trust Money. 
 The Trustee or Paying Agent shall hold in trust U.S. Legal Tender or U.S.
Government Obligations deposited with it pursuant to Section 8.1, and shall apply the deposited U.S. Legal Tender and the money from U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this First Supplemental Indenture to the payment of the
principal of, premium, and interest, if any, on the Notes. The Trustee shall be under no obligation to invest said U.S. Legal Tender or U.S. Government Obligations except as it may agree in writing with the Issuer. 

The Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall pay jointly and severally and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge
imposed on or assessed against the U.S. Legal Tender or U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 8.1 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the
account of the Holders of outstanding Notes. 
 SECTION 8.3. Repayment to the Issuer. 

Subject to Section 8.1, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuer upon request any excess U.S. Legal Tender
or U.S. Government Obligations held by them at any time and thereupon shall be relieved from all liability with respect to such money. The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Issuer upon request any money held by them for the payment of
principal, interest or premium, that remains unclaimed for one year; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any payment, shall, at the written direction and expense of the Issuer cause
to be published once in a newspaper of general circulation in the City of New York or mail to each Holder entitled to such money notice that such money remains unclaimed and that after a date specified therein which shall be at least 30 days from
the date of such publication or mailing any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Issuer. After payment to the Issuer, Holders entitled to such money must look to the Issuer for payment as general creditors unless an
applicable law designates another Person. 
 SECTION 8.4. Reinstatement. 

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any U.S. Legal Tender or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 8.1
by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Issuer’s and the Subsidiary Guarantors’ obligations under
this First Supplemental Indenture and the Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.1 until such time 

  
 -96-








 
as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such U.S. Legal Tender or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 8.1; provided, however, that if the
Issuer has made any payment of interest, if any, or premium, on or principal of any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the
U.S. Legal Tender or U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent. 
 SECTION 8.5. Acknowledgment of
Discharge by Trustee. 
 After (i) the conditions of Section 8.1 have been satisfied, (ii) the Issuer
has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable under this First Supplemental Indenture by the Issuer and (iii) the Issuer has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all
conditions precedent referred to in clause (i) of this Section 8.5 relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this First Supplemental Indenture have been complied with, the Trustee upon request shall acknowledge in writing the discharge
of the Issuer’s obligations under this First Supplemental Indenture except for those surviving obligations specified in Section 8.1, provided the legal counsel delivering such Opinion of Counsel may rely as to matters of fact on one
or more Officers’ Certificates of the Issuer. 
 ARTICLE IX. 

MODIFICATION OF THE FIRST SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE 
 SECTION 9.1. Without Consent of Holders. 
 Without the consent
of any Holder, the Issuer, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee may amend this First Supplemental Indenture and the Notes to: 
 (1) cure any ambiguity, omission, defect, mistake or inconsistency; 

(2) provide for the assumption by a successor of the obligations of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor under this
First Supplemental Indenture; 
 (3) provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated
Notes (provided that the uncertificated Notes are issued in registered form for purposes of Section 163(f) of the Code, or in a manner such that the uncertificated Notes are described in Section 163(f)(2)(B) of the Code);

 (4) add Subsidiary Guarantees with respect to the Notes, including Subsidiary Guarantees, or release a
Subsidiary Guarantor from its Subsidiary Guarantee and terminate such Subsidiary Guarantee; provided, that the release and termination is in accordance with the applicable provisions of this First Supplemental Indenture; 

(5) secure the Notes or Subsidiary Guarantees; 

(6) add to the covenants of the Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor for the benefit of the Holders or surrender any right or
power conferred upon the Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor; 

  
 -97-








 (7) make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder;
provided, however, that any change to conform this First Supplemental Indenture to the “Description of notes” contained in the prospectus supplement of the Issuer dated April 18, 2013 relating to the offering of the
Notes will not be deemed to adversely affect the rights of any Holder; 
 (8) comply with any requirement of the
SEC in connection with the qualification of this First Supplemental Indenture under the TIA; or 
 (9) provide
for the succession of a successor Trustee, provided that the successor Trustee is otherwise qualified and eligible to act as such under this First Supplemental Indenture. 

SECTION 9.2. With Consent of Holders. 
 All other modifications and amendments of this First Supplemental Indenture may be made, subject to certain exceptions, with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then
outstanding (including without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes) and, subject to certain exceptions, any past default or compliance with any provisions may be waived with
the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes). However, without the
consent of each Holder of an outstanding Note affected, no amendment may, among other things: 
 (1) reduce the
principal amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver; 
 (2) reduce the
stated rate of or extend the stated time for payment of interest on any Note; 
 (3) reduce the principal of or
extend the Stated Maturity of any Note; 
 (4) reduce the premium payable upon the redemption of any Note
pursuant to Section 3.3, or change the time at which any Note may be redeemed pursuant to Section 3.3, or make any change relative to the Issuer’s obligation to make an offer to repurchase the Notes as a result of a Change of Control
described in Section 4.14 after (but not before) the occurrence of a Change of Control; 
 (5) make any Note
payable in money other than that stated in the Note; 
 (6) impair the right of any Holder to receive payment of,
premium, if any, principal of and interest on such Holder’s Notes 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 Notes; 

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


  
 -98-








 (8) modify the Subsidiary Guarantees in any manner adverse to the Holders of
the Notes; or 
 (9) make any change to or modify the ranking of the Notes that would adversely affect the
Holders. 
 Without the consent of the Holders of at least 75% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, no amendment or
waiver may make any change to, or extend the time for performance under Section 3.4. 
 The consent of the Holders is not necessary under
this First Supplemental Indenture to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment. It is sufficient if such consent approves the substance of the proposed amendment. A consent to any amendment or waiver under this First Supplemental
Indenture by any Holder given in connection with a tender of such Holder’s Notes will not be rendered invalid by such tender. After an amendment under this First Supplemental Indenture becomes effective, the Issuer is required to mail to the
Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment. However, failure to give such notice to all the Holders, or any defect in the notice will not impair or affect the validity of the amendment. 

SECTION 9.3. Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. 

Every amendment, waiver or supplement of this First Supplemental Indenture or the Notes shall comply with the TIA as then in effect;
provided, however, that this Section 9.3 shall not of itself require that this First Supplemental Indenture or the Trustee be qualified under the TIA or constitute any admission or acknowledgment by any party hereto that any such
qualification is required prior to the time this First Supplemental Indenture and the Trustee are required by the TIA to be so qualified. 
 SECTION 9.4. Revocation and Effect of Consents. 
 Until an
amendment, waiver or supplement becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder is a continuing consent by the Holder and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even
if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. Subject to the following paragraph, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to such Holder’s Note or portion of such Note by notice to the Trustee or the Issuer received
before the date on which the Trustee receives an Officers’ Certificate certifying that the Holders of the requisite principal amount of Notes have consented (and not theretofore revoked such consent) to the amendment, supplement or waiver. An
amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective upon receipt by the Trustee of such Officers’ Certificate and evidence of consent by the Holders of the requisite percentage in principal amount of outstanding Notes. 

The Issuer may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a Record Date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to consent to any
amendment, supplement or waiver, which Record Date shall be at least 30 days prior to the first solicitation of such consent. If a Record Date is fixed, then notwithstanding the second sentence of 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 revoke any consent previously given, whether or not such Persons 

  
 -99-








 
continue to be Holders after such Record Date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 90 days after such Record Date unless consents from Holders of the requisite percentage in
principal amount of outstanding Notes required under this First Supplemental Indenture for the effectiveness of such consents shall have also been given and not revoked within such 90-day period. 

SECTION 9.5. Notation on or Exchange of Notes. 

If an amendment, supplement or waiver changes the terms of a Note, the Trustee may require the Holder of such Note to deliver it to the
Trustee. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation on the Note about the changed terms and return it to the Holder. Alternatively, if the Issuer or the Trustee so determines, the Issuer in exchange for the Note shall issue and the Trustee shall
authenticate a new Note that reflects the changed terms. 
 SECTION 9.6. Trustee To Sign Amendments, Etc.

 The Trustee shall execute any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article IX; provided,
however, that the Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, execute any such amendment, supplement or waiver which affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this First Supplemental Indenture. In executing such
supplement or waiver the Trustee shall be entitled to receive indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it, and shall be fully protected in relying upon an Opinion of Counsel and an Officers’ Certificate of the Issuer, stating that the execution of
any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article IX is authorized or permitted by this First Supplemental Indenture, provided the legal counsel delivering such Opinion of Counsel may rely as to matters of fact on one or
more Officers’ Certificates of the Issuer. Such Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee. 
 ARTICLE X.

 MISCELLANEOUS 
 SECTION 10.1. TIA Controls. 
 If any provision of this First
Supplemental Indenture limits, qualifies, or conflicts with another provision which is required to be included in this First Supplemental Indenture by the TIA, the required provision shall control; provided, however, that this
Section 10.1 shall not of itself require that this First Supplemental Indenture or the Trustee be qualified under the TIA or constitute any admission or acknowledgment by any party hereto that any such qualification is required prior to the
time this First Supplemental Indenture and the Trustee are required by the TIA to be so qualified.

such counsel, all such conditions precedent to be performed by the Issuer, if any, provided for in this First Supplemental Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with (which counsel, as to factual matters, may rely on an
Officers’ Certificate). 
 SECTION 10.5. Statements Required in Certificate or Opinion. 

Each certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in this First Supplemental Indenture,
other than the Officers’ Certificate required by Section 4.6, shall comply with TIA § 314(e) and include:

 (2) a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such certificate or opinion are based; 

(3) a statement that, in the opinion of such Person, he has made such examination or investigation as is reasonably

intervening period. 

  
 -102-








 SECTION 10.8. Governing Law. 

THIS FIRST SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE, THE NOTES AND THE SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS
OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. Each of the parties hereto agrees to submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this First Supplemental Indenture. 

SECTION 10.9. No Adverse Interpretation of Other Agreements. 

This First Supplemental Indenture may not be used to interpret another indenture, loan or debt agreement of the Issuer or any of its
respective Subsidiaries. Any such indenture, loan or debt agreement may not be used to interpret this First Supplemental Indenture. 
 SECTION 10.10. No Personal Liability. 
 No director, officer,
employee, incorporator, stockholder, member, partner or trustee of the Issuer or director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of any Subsidiary Guarantor, as such, shall have any liability for any of the Issuer’s obligations under
the Notes, the Subsidiary Guarantors’ obligations under the Subsidiary Guarantees or this First Supplemental Indenture or any claim based on, in respect of, by reason of, these obligations or their creation. Each Holder, by accepting a Note,
waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. The waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws and it is the view of the SEC that such a
waiver is against public policy. 
 SECTION 10.11. Successors. 

All agreements of the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors in this First Supplemental Indenture, the Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees
shall bind their successors. All agreements of the Trustee in this First Supplemental Indenture shall bind its successors. 

SECTION 10.12. Duplicate Originals. 
 All parties may sign any number of copies of this First Supplemental Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together shall represent the same agreement. 

SECTION 10.13. Severability. 
 In case any one or more of the provisions in this First Supplemental Indenture or in the Notes shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, in any respect for any reason, the validity, legality and
enforceability of any such provision in every other respect and of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, it being intended that all of the provisions hereof shall be enforceable to the full extent permitted
by law. 

  
 -103-








 SECTION 10.14. Independence of Covenants. 

All covenants and agreements in this First Supplemental Indenture and the Notes shall be given independent effect so that if any
particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of
Default if such action is taken or condition exists. 
 ARTICLE XI. 

SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE OF NOTES 
 SECTION 11.1. Unconditional Subsidiary Guarantee. 
 Subject to
the provisions of this Article XI, each Subsidiary Guarantor, if any, hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, on an unsecured senior basis to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to
the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this First Supplemental Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Issuer or any other Subsidiary Guarantors to the Holders or the Trustee under this
First Supplemental Indenture or thereunder, that: (a) the principal of, premium, and interest on the Notes shall be duly and punctually paid in full when due, whether at maturity, upon redemption at the option of Holders pursuant to the
provisions of the Notes relating thereto, by acceleration or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal and (to the extent permitted by law) interest, if any, on the Notes and all other obligations of the Issuer or the Subsidiary Guarantors to
the Holders or the Trustee under this First Supplemental Indenture or thereunder (including amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.7 hereof) and all other obligations shall be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the
terms hereof and thereof; and (b) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, the same shall be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension
or renewal, whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed, or failing performance of any other obligation of the Issuer to the Holders under this First Supplemental Indenture or under the
Notes, for whatever reason, each Subsidiary Guarantor shall be obligated to pay, or to perform or cause the performance of, the same immediately. An Event of Default under this First Supplemental Indenture or the Notes shall constitute an event of
default under the Subsidiary Guarantees, and shall entitle the Holders of Notes to accelerate the obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors under this First Supplemental Indenture in the same manner and to the same extent as the obligations of the
Issuer. 
 Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby agrees that its obligations under this First Supplemental Indenture shall be
unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this First Supplemental Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any
provisions hereof or thereof, any release of any other Subsidiary Guarantor, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuer, any action to enforce the same, whether or not a Subsidiary Guarantee is affixed to any particular Note, or any other
circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby 

  
 -104-








 
waives the benefit of diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first
against the Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that its Subsidiary Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes, this First Supplemental Indenture and this
Subsidiary Guarantee. Each Subsidiary Guarantee is a guarantee of payment and not of collection. If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Issuer or to any Subsidiary Guarantor, or any custodian, trustee,
liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to the Issuer or such Subsidiary Guarantor, any amount paid by the Issuer or such Subsidiary Guarantor to the Trustee or such Holder, this Subsidiary Guarantee, to the extent theretofore
discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect. Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that, as between it, on the one hand, and the Holders of Notes and the Trustee, on the other hand, (a) subject to this Article XI, the maturity
of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article VI hereof for the purposes of its Subsidiary Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the
obligations guaranteed hereby, and (b) in the event of any acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article VI hereof, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Subsidiary Guarantors
for the purpose of its Subsidiary Guarantee. 
 No stockholder, member, officer, director, employee, partner or incorporator,
past, present or future, or any Subsidiary Guarantor, as such, shall have any personal liability under the Subsidiary Guarantees by reason of his, her or its status as such stockholder, member, officer, director, employee, partner or incorporator.

 SECTION 11.2. Limitations on Subsidiary Guarantees. 

The obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee will be limited to the maximum amount which, after giving
effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other
Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee or pursuant to its contribution obligations under this First Supplemental Indenture, will result in the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee not constituting a
fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under federal or state law. 
 SECTION 11.3. Execution and Delivery of
Subsidiary Guarantee Notation. 
 To further evidence its Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in Section 11.1, each
Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that a notation of such Subsidiary Guarantee, substantially in the form of Exhibit B herein, shall be endorsed on each Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee. Such notation shall be executed on
behalf of each Subsidiary Guarantor by either manual or facsimile signature of one Officer of each Subsidiary Guarantor, who, in each case, shall have been duly authorized to so execute by all requisite corporate action. The validity and
enforceability of any Subsidiary Guarantee shall not be affected by the fact that such notation is not affixed to any particular Note. 

  
 -105-








 Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in
Section 11.1 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Subsidiary Guarantee. 
 If an Officer of a Subsidiary Guarantor whose signature is on this First Supplemental Indenture or on a notation of a Subsidiary Guarantee no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates
the Note on which such notation is endorsed or at any time thereafter, such Subsidiary Guarantor’s Subsidiary Guarantee of such Note shall be valid nevertheless. 
 The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof under this First Supplemental Indenture, shall constitute due delivery of any Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in this First
Supplemental Indenture on behalf of each Subsidiary Guarantor. 
 SECTION 11.4. Release of a Subsidiary
Guarantor. 
 (a) If no Default exists or would exist under this First Supplemental Indenture, (i) upon the sale
or disposition of all of the Capital Stock of a Subsidiary Guarantor by either Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of such Issuer in a transaction constituting an Asset Disposition in accordance with Section 4.15, or upon the consolidation or
merger of a Subsidiary Guarantor with or into any Person in compliance with Article V (in each case, other than to the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary), or (ii) upon the designation of a Subsidiary Guarantor as
an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the second paragraph of the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary” or in connection with any Legal Defeasance or satisfaction and discharge of the Notes as provided in Section 8.1, such
Subsidiary Guarantor and each Subsidiary of such Subsidiary Guarantor that is also a Subsidiary Guarantor shall be deemed released from all obligations under this Article XI without any further action required on the part of the Trustee or any
Holder; provided, however, that each such Subsidiary Guarantor is sold or disposed of or designated in accordance with this First Supplemental Indenture. Any Subsidiary Guarantor not so released or the entity surviving such Subsidiary
Guarantor, as applicable, shall remain or be liable under its Subsidiary Guarantee as provided in this Article XI. 
 (b) The
Trustee shall deliver an appropriate instrument evidencing the release of a Subsidiary Guarantor upon receipt of a request by the Issuer or such Subsidiary Guarantor accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel certifying
as to the compliance with this Section 11.4, provided the legal counsel delivering such Opinion of Counsel may rely as to matters of fact on one or more Officers’ Certificates of the Issuer. 

The Trustee shall execute any documents reasonably requested by the Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor in order to evidence the release of
such Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee endorsed on the Notes and under this Article XI. 

Except as set forth in Articles Four and Five and this Section 11.4, nothing contained in this First Supplemental Indenture or in
any of the Notes shall prevent any consolidation or merger of a Subsidiary Guarantor with or into the Issuer or another Subsidiary Guarantor or shall prevent any sale or conveyance of the property of a Subsidiary Guarantor as an entirety or
substantially as an entirety to the Issuer or another Subsidiary Guarantor. 

  
 -106-








 SECTION 11.5. Waiver of Subrogation. 

Until this First Supplemental Indenture is discharged and all of the Notes are discharged and paid in full, each Subsidiary Guarantor
hereby irrevocably waives and agrees not to exercise any claim or other rights which it may now or hereafter acquire against the Issuer that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of the Issuer’s obligations under the
Notes or this First Supplemental Indenture and such Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee and this First Supplemental Indenture, in any such instance including, without limitation, any right of subrogation,
reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification, and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Holders against the Issuer, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity, or under contract, statute or common law,
including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from the Issuer, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim or other rights. If any amount shall be
paid to any Subsidiary Guarantor in violation of the preceding sentence and any amounts owing to the Trustee or the Holders of Notes under the Notes, this First Supplemental Indenture, or any other document or instrument delivered under or in
connection with such agreements or instruments, shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall have been deemed to have been paid to such Subsidiary Guarantor for the benefit of, and held in trust for the benefit of, the Trustee or the Holders
and shall forthwith be paid to the Trustee for the benefit of itself or such Holders to be credited and applied to the obligations in favor of the Trustee or the Holders, as the case may be, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms
of this First Supplemental Indenture. Each Subsidiary Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this First Supplemental Indenture and that the waiver set forth in this
Section 11.5 is knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits. 
 SECTION 11.6. Immediate Payment.

 Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees to make immediate payment to the Trustee on behalf of the Holders of all obligations under
the Notes and this First Supplemental Indenture owing or payable to the respective Holders upon receipt of a demand for payment therefor by the Trustee to such Subsidiary Guarantor in writing. 

SECTION 11.7. No Set-Off. 
 Each payment to be made by a Subsidiary Guarantor under this First Supplemental Indenture in respect of the obligations under the Notes and this First Supplemental Indenture shall be payable in the
currency or currencies in which such obligations are denominated, and shall be made without set-off, counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any kind or nature. 
 SECTION 11.8. Obligations Absolute. 
 The obligations of each
Subsidiary Guarantor under this First Supplemental Indenture are and shall be absolute and unconditional and any monies or amounts expressed to be owing or payable by each Subsidiary Guarantor under this First Supplemental Indenture which may not be
recoverable from such Subsidiary Guarantor on the basis of a Subsidiary Guarantee shall be recoverable from such Subsidiary Guarantor as a primary obligor and principal debtor in respect thereof. 

  
 -107-








 SECTION 11.9. Obligations Continuing. 

The obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor under this First Supplemental Indenture shall be continuing and shall remain in full force
and effect until all the obligations have been paid and satisfied in full. Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees with the Trustee that it will from time to time deliver to the Trustee suitable acknowledgments of this continued liability under this First
Supplemental Indenture and under any other instrument or instruments in such form as counsel to the Trustee may advise and as will prevent any action brought against it in respect of any default under this First Supplemental Indenture being barred
by any statute of limitations now or hereafter in force and, in the event of the failure of a Subsidiary Guarantor so to do, it hereby irrevocably appoints the Trustee the attorney and agent of such Subsidiary Guarantor to make, execute and deliver
such written acknowledgment or acknowledgments or other instruments as may from time to time become necessary or advisable, in the judgment of the Trustee on the advice of counsel, to fully maintain and keep in force the liability of such Subsidiary
Guarantor under this First Supplemental Indenture. 
 SECTION 11.10. Obligations Not Reduced. 

The obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor under this First Supplemental Indenture shall not be satisfied, reduced or discharged solely
by the payment of such principal, premium, if any, interest, fees and other monies or amounts as may at any time prior to discharge of this First Supplemental Indenture pursuant to Article VIII be or become owing or payable under or by virtue of or
otherwise in connection with the Notes or this First Supplemental Indenture. 
 SECTION 11.11. Obligations
Reinstated. 
 The obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor under this First Supplemental Indenture shall continue to
be effective or shall be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment which would otherwise have reduced the obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor under this First Supplemental Indenture (whether such payment shall have been made by
or on behalf of the Issuer or by or on behalf of a Subsidiary Guarantor) is rescinded or reclaimed from any of the Holders upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor or otherwise, all as
though such payment had not been made. If demand for, or acceleration of the time for, payment by the Issuer is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of the Issuer, all such Indebtedness otherwise subject to demand
for payment or acceleration shall nonetheless be payable by each Subsidiary Guarantor as provided herein. 
 SECTION 11.12.
Obligations Not Affected. 
 The obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor under this First Supplemental
Indenture shall not be affected, impaired or diminished in any way by any act, omission, matter or thing whatsoever, occurring before, upon or after any demand for payment under this First Supplemental Indenture (and whether or not known or
consented to by any Subsidiary Guarantor or 

  
 -108-








 
any of the Holders) which, but for this provision, might constitute a whole or partial defense to a claim against any Subsidiary Guarantor under this First Supplemental Indenture or might operate
to release or otherwise exonerate any Subsidiary Guarantor from any of its obligations under this First Supplemental Indenture or otherwise affect such obligations, whether occasioned by default of any of the Holders or otherwise, including, without
limitation: 
 (a) any limitation of status or power, disability, incapacity or other circumstance relating to
the Issuer or any other person, including any insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation, reorganization, readjustment, composition, dissolution, winding up or other proceeding involving or affecting the Issuer or any other person; 

(b) any irregularity, defect, unenforceability or invalidity in respect of any Indebtedness or other obligation of the
Issuer or any other person under this First Supplemental Indenture, the Notes or any other document or instrument; 
 (c) any failure of the Issuer, whether or not without fault on its part, to perform or comply with any of the provisions of this First Supplemental Indenture or the Notes, or to give notice thereof to a
Subsidiary Guarantor; 
 (d) the taking or enforcing or exercising or the refusal or neglect to take or enforce
or exercise any right or remedy from or against the Issuer or any other person or their respective assets or the release or discharge of any such right or remedy; 

(e) the granting of time, renewals, extensions, compromises, concessions, waivers, releases, discharges and other
indulgences to the Issuer or any other Person; 
 (f) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or
in any other term of, any of the Notes, or any other amendment, variation, supplement, replacement or waiver of, or any consent to departure from, any of the Notes or this First Supplemental Indenture, including, without limitation, any increase or
decrease in the principal amount of or premium, if any, or interest on any of the Notes; 
 (g) any change in the
ownership, control, name, objects, businesses, assets, capital structure or constitution of the Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor; 
 (h) any merger or amalgamation of the Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor with any Person or Persons; 
 (i) the occurrence of any change in the laws, rules, regulations or ordinances of any jurisdiction by any present or future action of any governmental authority or court amending, varying, reducing or
otherwise affecting, or purporting to amend, vary, reduce or otherwise affect, any of the Issuer’s obligations under the Notes or this First Supplemental Indenture or the obligations of a Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee; and

 (j) any other circumstance (other than by complete, irrevocable payment), including release of any other
Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to Section 11.4, that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of the Issuer under this First Supplemental Indenture or the Notes or of a Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of its
Subsidiary Guarantee under this First Supplemental Indenture. 

  
 -109-








 SECTION 11.13. Waiver. 

Without in any way limiting the provisions of Section 11.1 hereof, each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby waives notice of acceptance
hereof, notice of any liability of any Subsidiary Guarantor under this First Supplemental Indenture, notice or proof of reliance by the Holders upon the obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor under this First Supplemental Indenture, and diligence,
presentment, demand for payment on the Issuer, protest, notice of dishonor or non-payment of any of the Issuer’s obligations, under the notes or this First Supplemental Indenture, or other notice or formalities to the Issuer or any Subsidiary
Guarantor of any kind whatsoever. 
 SECTION 11.14. No Obligation To Take Action Against the Issuer.

 Neither the Trustee nor any other Person shall have any obligation to enforce or exhaust any rights or remedies or to take any
other steps under any security for the Issuer’s obligations under the notes or this First Supplemental Indenture, or against the Issuer or any other Person or any Property of the Issuer or any other Person before the Trustee is entitled to
demand payment and performance by any or all Subsidiary Guarantors of their liabilities and obligations under their Subsidiary Guarantees or under this First Supplemental Indenture. 

SECTION 11.15. Dealing with the Issuer and Others. 

The Holders, without releasing, discharging, limiting or otherwise affecting in whole or in part the obligations and liabilities of any
Subsidiary Guarantor under this First Supplemental Indenture and without the consent of or notice to any Subsidiary Guarantor, may 
 (a) grant time, renewals, extensions, compromises, concessions, waivers, releases, discharges and other indulgences to the Issuer or any other Person; 

(b) take or abstain from taking security or collateral from the Issuer or from perfecting security or collateral of the
Issuer; 
 (c) release, discharge, compromise, realize, enforce or otherwise deal with or do any act or thing in
respect of (with or without consideration) any and all collateral, mortgages or other security given by the Issuer or any third party with respect to the obligations or matters contemplated by this First Supplemental Indenture or the Notes;

 (d) accept compromises or arrangements from the Issuer; 

(e) apply all monies at any time received from the Issuer or from any security upon such part of the Issuer’s
obligations under the Notes and this First Supplemental Indenture as the Holders may see fit or change any such application in whole or in part from time to time as the Holders may see fit; and 

(f) otherwise deal with, or waive or modify their right to deal with, the Issuer and all other Persons and any security as
the Holders or the Trustee may see fit. 

  
 -110-








 SECTION 11.16. Default and Enforcement. 

If any Subsidiary Guarantor fails to pay in accordance with Section 11.6 hereof, the Trustee may proceed in its name as trustee under
this First Supplemental Indenture in the enforcement of the Subsidiary Guarantee of any such Subsidiary Guarantor and such Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations thereunder and under this First Supplemental Indenture by any remedy provided by law,

 (REVERSE OF SECURITY) 

5.625% Senior Note due 2021 
 (1) Interest. ROSETTA RESOURCES INC. (the “Issuer”) promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the rate per annum shown above and otherwise in accordance with
the First Supplemental Indenture referred to below. Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date on which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from May 2, 2013. The Issuer will pay interest semi-annually in
arrears on each Interest Payment Date, commencing November 1, 2013. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months and, in the case of a partial month, the actual number of days elapsed. 

(2) Method of Payment. The Issuer shall pay interest, if any, on the Notes (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are the
registered Holders at the close of business on the Record Date immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date even if the Notes are canceled on registration of transfer or registration of exchange after such Record Date. Holders must surrender
Notes to a Paying Agent to collect principal payments. The Issuer shall pay principal, premium, and interest in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts (“U.S. Legal
Tender”). The Issuer may deliver any such interest payment to the Paying Agent or to a Holder at the Holder’s registered address. 
 (3) Paying Agent and Registrar. Initially, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Trustee”) will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent,
Registrar or co-Registrar without notice to the Holders. 
 (4) Indenture. The Issuer issued the Notes under the Base
Indenture, dated May 2, 2013 (the “Base Indenture”), as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of May 2, 2013 (the “First Supplemental Indenture”), among the Issuer, the Subsidiary
Guarantors and the Trustee. This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Issuer designated as its 5.625% Senior Notes due 2021 (the “Notes”). The Notes include any Additional Notes. The Notes and any Additional Notes
are treated as a single class of securities under the First Supplemental Indenture. Capitalized terms herein are used as defined in the First Supplemental Indenture unless otherwise defined herein. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the
First Supplemental Indenture and those made part of the First Supplemental Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S. Code §§ 77aaa-77bbbb) (the “TIA”), as in effect on the date of the First
Supplemental Indenture. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders of Notes are referred to the First Supplemental Indenture and said Act for a statement of them. The Notes are general
unsecured obligations of the Issuer. Payment on each Note is guaranteed on a senior basis by the Subsidiary Guarantors pursuant to Article XI of the First Supplemental Indenture. Each Holder, by accepting a Note, agrees to be bound by all of
the terms and provisions of the First Supplemental Indenture, as the same may be amended from time to time in accordance with its terms.

 (5) Optional Redemption. (a) Except as described in subparagraphs (b) and
(c) below, the Issuer will not be entitled to redeem the Notes at its option prior to May 1, 2017. The Notes will be redeemable, at the Issuer’s option, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, on and after May 1, 2017,
upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at the following Redemption Prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount thereof) if redeemed during the twelve-month period commencing on May 1 of the years set forth below,
plus, in each case, unpaid accrued interest, if any, thereon to the Redemption Date: 
  

					
	 Year

	 2017
	  	 	102.813	% 
	 2018
	  	 	101.406	% 
	 2019 and thereafter
	  	 	100.000	% 

 (b) At any time, or from time to time, on or prior to May 1, 2016, the Issuer may, at its option,
use an amount of cash not greater than the Net Cash Proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings to redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes (including any Additional Notes) issued under the First Supplemental Indenture at a
Redemption Price equal to 105.625% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to the Redemption Date; provided, that: (1) at least 65% of the aggregate principal
amount of Notes issued under the First Supplemental Indenture on the Issue Date remains outstanding immediately after giving effect to any such redemption; and (2) the Issuer makes such redemption not more than 120 days after the consummation
of any such Equity Offering. 
 (c) In addition, the Notes may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at any time prior to
May 1, 2017 at the option of the Issuer upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice mailed by first class mail to each Holder at its registered address, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes
redeemed plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest to, the applicable 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).

 (6) Special Mandatory Redemption. (a) If a Mandatory Redemption Event occurs, then on the Special Mandatory
Redemption Date, the Issuer will redeem all and not less than all the Notes then outstanding at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the Special
Mandatory Redemption Date (the “Special Mandatory Redemption Price”). Such redemption is referred to as the “Special Mandatory Redemption”. 
 (b) The Issuer shall promptly, and in any event not more than three Business Days after the occurrence of a Mandatory Redemption Event, deliver notice of the Special Mandatory Redemption to the Trustee,
who shall then promptly deliver such notice to each Holder of Notes at its registered address. On or prior to the Special Mandatory Redemption Date, the Issuer will deposit with the Trustee an amount of cash sufficient to pay the Special Mandatory
Redemption Price. Prior to any such deposit of cash with the Trustee to fulfill the Special Mandatory Redemption Price or the consummation of the Acquisition, the Issuer shall maintain the net proceeds received from the issuance and sale of the
Notes on hand at all times in cash or Cash Equivalents. 

  
 A-5








 (7) Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but
not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at such Holder’s registered address. Notes in denominations larger than $2,000 may be redeemed in part. 

Except as set forth in the First Supplemental Indenture, if monies for the redemption of the Notes called for redemption shall have been
deposited with the Paying Agent for redemption on such Redemption Date, then, unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of such Redemption Price plus unpaid accrued interest, if any, the Notes called for redemption will cease to bear interest from
and after such Redemption Date and the only right of the Holders of such Notes will be to receive payment of the Redemption Price plus unpaid accrued interest, if any. 
 (8) Offers to Purchase. Sections 4.14 and 4.15 of the First Supplemental Indenture provide that, upon the occurrence of a Change of Control and after certain Asset Dispositions, and subject to
further limitations contained therein, the Issuer will make an offer to purchase certain amounts of the Notes in accordance with the procedures set forth in the First Supplemental Indenture. 

(9) Denominations; Transfer; Exchange. The Notes are in registered form, without coupons, and (except Notes issued as payment of
interest) in denominations of at least $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess of $2,000. A Holder shall register the transfer or exchange of Notes in accordance with the First Supplemental Indenture. The Registrar may require a Holder,
among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay certain transfer taxes or similar governmental charges payable in connection therewith as permitted by the First Supplemental Indenture. The Registrar need not
register the transfer of or exchange of any Notes or portions thereof selected for redemption. 
 (10) Persons Deemed
Owners. The registered Holder of a Note shall be treated as its owner for all purposes. 
 (11) Unclaimed Money. If
money for the payment of principal or interest remains unclaimed for one year, the Trustee and the Paying Agent will pay the money back to the Issuer. After that, all liability of the Trustee and such Paying Agent with respect to such money shall
cease. 
 (12) Discharge Prior to Redemption or Maturity. If the Issuer at any time deposits with the Trustee U.S. Legal
Tender or U.S. Government Obligations sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes to redemption or maturity and comply with the other provisions of the First Supplemental Indenture relating thereto, the Issuer will be discharged
from certain provisions of the First Supplemental Indenture and the Notes (including certain covenants, but including, under certain circumstances, its obligation to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes but without affecting the rights of
the Holders to receive such amounts from such deposits). 
 (13) Amendment; Supplement; Waiver. Subject to certain
exceptions set forth in the First Supplemental Indenture, the First Supplemental Indenture or the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantees may be amended or supplemented with the written consent of the Holders of not


  
 A-6








 
less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, and any past Default or Event of Default or noncompliance with any provision may be waived with the written
consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding. Without the consent of the Holders of at least 75% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, no amendment or waiver
may make any change to, or extend the time for performance under the Special Mandatory Redemption provisions of Section 3.4 of the First Supplemental Indenture. Without notice to or consent of any Holder, the parties thereto may amend or
supplement the First Supplemental Indenture or the Notes to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes, comply with any requirements of the SEC
in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the First Supplemental Indenture under the TIA or comply with Article V of the First Supplemental Indenture or make any other change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder of a
Note. 
 (14) Restrictive Covenants. The First Supplemental Indenture imposes certain limitations on the ability of the
Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries to, among other things, incur additional Indebtedness, make payments in respect of their Capital Stock or certain Indebtedness, make certain Investments, create or incur liens, enter into transactions with
Affiliates, create dividend or other payment restrictions affecting Restricted Subsidiaries, issue Preferred Stock of their Restricted Subsidiaries, and on the ability of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries to merge or consolidate with any
other Person or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the Issuer’s and its Restricted Subsidiaries’ assets or adopt a plan of liquidation. Such limitations are subject to a number of
important qualifications and exceptions. Pursuant to Section 4.6 of the First Supplemental Indenture, the Issuer must annually report to the Trustee on compliance with such limitations. 

(15) Successors. When a successor assumes, in accordance with the First Supplemental Indenture, all the obligations of its
predecessor under the Notes and the First Supplemental Indenture, the predecessor, subject to certain exceptions, will be released from those obligations. 
 (16) Defaults and Remedies. Except as set forth in the First Supplemental Indenture, if an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal
amount of Notes then outstanding may declare all the Notes to be due and payable in the manner, at the time and with the effect provided in the First Supplemental Indenture. Holders of Notes may not enforce the First Supplemental Indenture or the
Notes except as provided in the First Supplemental Indenture. The Trustee is not obligated to enforce the First Supplemental Indenture or the Notes unless it has received indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it. The First Supplemental Indenture
permits, subject to certain limitations therein provided, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding to direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of Notes
notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default in payment of principal, premium, or interest when due, for any reason or a Default in compliance with Article V of the First Supplemental Indenture) if it determines that
withholding notice is in their interest. 
 (17) Trustee Dealings with Issuer. The Trustee under the First Supplemental
Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuer, its respective Subsidiaries or its respective Affiliates as if it were not the Trustee. 

  
 A-7








 (18) No Recourse Against Others. No partner, director, officer, employee or
stockholder, as such, of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor under the Notes, the First Supplemental Indenture or the Subsidiary Guarantees or for
any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the
Notes. 
 (19) Subsidiary Guarantees. This Note will be entitled to the benefits of certain Subsidiary Guarantees, if
any, made for the benefit of the Holders. Reference is hereby made to the First Supplemental Indenture for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and obligations thereunder of the Subsidiary Guarantors, the Trustee and
the Holders. 
 (20) Authentication. This Note shall not be valid until the Trustee or Authenticating Agent manually
signs the certificate of authentication on this Note.
