NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals, the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein and other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

Sale. 
 (a) On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, each Seller hereby agrees to sell to the Company, and the
Company hereby agrees to purchase from each Seller, the aggregate principal amount of Notes specified on Annex I (collectively, the “Purchased Notes”), at a purchase price equal to the sum of (i) the
purchase price specified on Annex I (such aggregate amount, the “Purchase Price”), plus (ii) unpaid and accrued interest on the Purchased Notes from the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date (as
defined in the 2018 Notes Indenture and the 2022 Notes Indenture, as applicable) to, but not including, the Closing Date, payable in accordance with the terms of the 2018 Notes Indenture and the 2022 Notes Indenture, as applicable. The obligations
of the Sellers under this Agreement are several (and not joint), and no Seller shall be responsible for any other Seller’s failure to perform its obligations hereunder.

 (b) For the convenience of the Parties, each of the Company and the Sellers agree that the
funding of the Affiliate Lender’s Loans shall be deemed to occur on the Closing Date and the deemed delivery of the proceeds of the Affiliate Lender’s Loans under the Term Loan Agreement to the Sellers shall satisfy the Company’s
obligation to pay the Purchase Price hereunder. Further, the accrued but unpaid interest on the Purchased Notes from the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date to, but not including, the Closing Date (as defined below) shall be paid by the
Trustee at the direction of the Company on the Closing Date in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the respective accounts of the Sellers referenced on Annex II (the “Accrued
Interest”). Finally, the Company, as the issuer of the Notes, shall direct the Trustee to cancel the Purchased Notes concurrently with the Closing, in accordance with the terms of the 2018 Notes Indenture and the 2022
Notes Indenture, as applicable. The Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the deemed making by the Affiliate Lender of its Loans under the Term Loan Agreement, (ii) the deemed delivery by the Affiliate Lender of the proceeds of its Loans
under the Term Loan Agreement to the Sellers in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 1(b) hereof, (iii) the sale by the Sellers to the Company of the Purchased Notes, (iv) the purchase by the Company from the Sellers of
the Purchased Notes and (v) the cancellation by the Trustee of the Purchased Notes in accordance with the third sentence of this Section 1(b) will, in each case, occur concurrently.

business day on which the Effective Time (as defined below) occurs (such business day, the “Effective Date”) or such date and time after the Effective Date as shall be mutually agreed to by the Parties (the
“Closing Date”); provided that, in any event, unless otherwise agreed by the Parties the Closing Date will not be sooner than the date that is five trading days following the date of this Agreement. The Closing will
take place at the offices of the Company or such other place as shall be mutually agreed to by the Parties. Each Seller’s obligations under this Agreement shall terminate on the date that is ten trading days following the date of this Agreement
(or such later date as may be agreed in writing by all Sellers).
