 INDENTURE, dated as of March 18, 2014, among Pioneer Energy Services Corp., a Texas
corporation (the “Company”), the Guarantors (as defined herein) and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, and any and all successors thereto, as trustee (in such capacity, the “Trustee”). 

The Company, the Guarantors, and the Trustee agree as follows for the benefit of each other and for the equal and ratable benefit of the
Holders (as defined herein) of the 6.125% Senior Notes due 2022 (the “Notes”): 
 ARTICLE I. 

DEFINITIONS AND INCORPORATION 
 BY
REFERENCE 
 Section 1.01. Definitions. 

“Acquired Debt” means, with respect to any specified Person: 

(1) Indebtedness of any other Person existing at the time such other Person is merged with or into or became a Restricted
Subsidiary of such specified Person (regardless of the form of the applicable transaction by which such Person became a Restricted Subsidiary), whether or not such Indebtedness is incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such other
Person merging with or into, or becoming a Restricted Subsidiary of, such specified Person; and 
 (2) Indebtedness secured
by a Lien encumbering any asset acquired by such specified Person, but excluding Indebtedness that is extinguished, retired or repaid in connection with such Person merging with or becoming a Restricted Subsidiary of such specified Person. 

Acquired Debt will be deemed to be incurred on the date the acquired Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary or the date of the related acquisition of assets
from such Person. 
 “Additional Interest” means all additional interest then owing on the Notes pursuant to the
Registration Rights Agreement. 
 “Additional Notes” means Notes (other than the Initial Notes) issued after the Issue Date
under this Indenture in accordance with Sections 2.01 (“Form and Dating”), 2.02 (“Execution and Authentication”) and 4.08 (“Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock”) hereof, as part of the same class
as the Initial Notes. 
 “Adjusted Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, (i) the yield, under the
heading which represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently published statistical release designated “H.15(519)” or any successor publication which is published weekly by the Board of Governors
of the Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities” for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable
Treasury Issue with respect to the notes called for redemption (if no maturity is within three months before or after March 15, 2017, yields for the two published maturities most 







 
closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue shall be determined and the Adjusted Treasury Rate shall be interpolated or extrapolated from such yields on a straight line basis, rounding
to the nearest month) or (ii) if such release (or any successor release) is not published during the week preceding the calculation date or does not contain such yields, the rate per year equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of
the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such redemption date, in each case calculated on the third business day immediately preceding the redemption date, plus, in
the case of each of clause (i) and (ii), 0.50%. 
 “Affiliate” of any specified Person means any other Person directly
or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with such specified Person. For purposes of this definition, “control,” as used with respect to any Person, means the possession, directly or indirectly,
of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of such Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by agreement or otherwise; provided that beneficial ownership of 10% or more of the Voting Stock
of a Person will be deemed to be control. For purposes of this definition, the terms “controlling,” “controlled by” and “under common control with” have correlative meanings. 

“Agent” means any Registrar, co-registrar, Paying Agent or additional paying agent. 

“Applicable Premium” means, with respect to any Note on any redemption date, the excess of: 

(1) the present value at such redemption date of: 

(A) the redemption price of the Note on March 15, 2017 (such redemption price being described in Section 3.07(b)
(“Optional Redemption”) hereof; plus 
 (B) all required remaining scheduled interest payments due on the Note
through March 15, 2017 (excluding accrued and unpaid interest), computed using a discount rate equal to the Adjusted Treasury Rate; over 

(2) the principal amount of the Note on such redemption date. 

“Applicable Procedures” means, with respect to any transfer or exchange of or for beneficial interests in any Global Note,
the rules and procedures of the Depositary, Euroclear and Clearstream that apply to such transfer or exchange. 
 “Asset
Sale” means: 
 (1) the sale, lease, conveyance or other disposition (a “transfer”) of any assets or
rights by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary; provided that the sale, lease, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole will be governed by
Section 4.18 (“Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control”) hereof and/or Section 5.01 (“Merger, Consolidation, or Sale of Assets”) hereof, and not by Section 4.19 (“Asset Sales”) hereof; 

  
 2 








 (2) the issuance of Equity Interests in any of the Company’s Restricted
Subsidiaries or the sale of Equity Interests in any of its Subsidiaries (other than directors’ qualifying shares or shares required by applicable law to be held by a Person other than the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries); and 

(3) an Involuntary Transfer. 

Notwithstanding the preceding, the following items will not be deemed to be Asset Sales: 

(1) any single transaction or series of related transactions that involves assets having a Fair Market Value, or receipt by the
Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Net Proceeds, not in excess of $5.0 million; 
 (2) a transfer of assets
between or among the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries; 
 (3) an issuance of Equity Interests by a Restricted
Subsidiary to the Company or to another Restricted Subsidiary; 
 (4) the transfer of assets in the ordinary course of
business; 
 (5) the transfer of damaged, worn-out or obsolete assets that, in the Company’s reasonable judgment, are
either (a) no longer used or (b) no longer useful in the business of the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries; 

(6) the sale or other disposition of cash or Cash Equivalents; 

(7) (a) a Permitted Investment or (b) a Restricted Payment that is permitted in accordance with Section 4.07
(“Restricted Payments”) hereof; 
 (8) any Lien permitted by the Indenture; and 

(9) any transfer of assets in trade or exchange for assets of comparable Fair Market Value used or usable in any Permitted
Business (including, without limitation, the trade or exchange for a controlling interest in another business or all or substantially all of the assets or operating line of a business, in each case, engaged in a Permitted Business or for other
non-current assets to be used in a Permitted Business); provided that (A) the Fair Market Value of the assets traded or exchanged by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary (including any cash or Cash Equivalents to be delivered by the
Company or such Restricted Subsidiary) is reasonably equivalent to the Fair Market Value of the assets (together with any cash or Cash Equivalents) to be received by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary; (B) such trade or exchange, if the
Fair Market Value of the related assets exceeded $25.0 million, is approved by the Board of Directors of the Company; and (C) any cash or Cash Equivalents received by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary in connection with such trade or
exchange (net of any transaction costs of the type deducted under the definition of “Net Proceeds”) shall be treated as Net Proceeds of an Asset Sale and shall be applied in the manner set forth in the covenant described in
Section 4.19 (“Asset Sales”). 

  
 3

THE NOTES 
 Section 2.01. Form and
Dating. 
 (a) General. The Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication will be substantially in the form of
Exhibit A hereto. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or usage. Each Note will be dated the date of its authentication. The Notes shall be in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of
$1,000 in excess thereof. 

  
 29 








 The terms and provisions contained in the Notes will constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a
part of this Indenture and the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the extent any provision of any Note
conflicts with the express provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling. 
 (b) Global
Notes. Notes issued in global form will be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (including the Global Note Legend thereon and the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto). Notes issued in
definitive form will be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (but without the Global Note Legend thereon and without the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto). Each Global Note will represent
such of the outstanding Notes as will be specified therein and each shall provide that it represents the aggregate principal amount of outstanding 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 appropriate, 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 will 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 2.06 (“Transfer and Exchange”)
hereof. 
 (c) Temporary Global Notes. To the extent required by Regulation S, Notes offered and sold in reliance on Regulation S may
be issued initially in the form of the Regulation S Temporary Global Note, which will be deposited on behalf of the purchasers of the Notes represented thereby with the Trustee, as custodian for the Depositary, and registered in the name of the
Depositary or the nominee of the Depositary for the accounts of designated agents holding on behalf of Euroclear or Clearstream, duly executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee as hereinafter provided. 

If a Regulation S Temporary Global Note is issued by the Company, following the termination of the Restricted Period, beneficial interests in
the Regulation S Temporary Global Note will be exchanged for beneficial interests in the Regulation S Permanent Global Note pursuant to the Applicable Procedures. Simultaneously with the authentication of the Regulation S Permanent Global Note, the
Trustee will cancel the Regulation S Temporary Global Note. The aggregate principal amount of the Regulation S Temporary Global Note and the Regulation S Permanent Global Note may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on
the records of the Trustee and the Depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, in connection with transfers of interest as hereinafter provided. 

(d) Euroclear and Clearstream Procedures Applicable. The provisions of the “Operating Procedures of the Euroclear System” and
“Terms and Conditions Governing Use of Euroclear” and the “General Terms and Conditions of Clearstream Banking” and “Customer Handbook” of Clearstream will be applicable to transfers of beneficial interests in any
Regulation S Global Note that is held by Participants through Euroclear or Clearstream.

 Section 2.02. Execution and Authentication. 

At least one Officer must sign the Notes for the Company by manual or facsimile signature. 

If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time a Note is authenticated, the Note will nevertheless be
valid. 
 A Note will not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee. The signature will be conclusive evidence
that the Note has been authenticated under this Indenture. 
 The Trustee will, upon receipt of a written order of the Company signed by two
Officers (an “Authentication Order”), authenticate Notes for original issue that may be validly issued under this Indenture, including any Additional Notes. The aggregate principal amount of Notes outstanding at any time may not
exceed the aggregate principal amount of Notes authorized for issuance by the Company pursuant to one or more Authentication Orders, except as provided in Section 2.07 (“Replacement Notes”) hereof. 

The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Company to authenticate Notes. An authenticating agent may authenticate
Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with Holders or an Affiliate of the
Company. 
 Section 2.03. Registrar and Paying Agent. 

The Company will maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange
(“Registrar”) and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (“Paying Agent”). The Registrar will keep a register of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange. The Company may appoint one or
more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar and the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar
without notice to any Holder. The Company will notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Company fails to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee
shall act as such. The Trustee will initially act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar. 

The Company initially appoints The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) to act as Depositary with respect to the Global Notes.

 The Company initially appoints the Trustee to act as the Registrar and Paying Agent and to act as Custodian with respect to the Global
Notes. 
 Section 2.04. Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. 

The Company will require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust for the benefit
of Holders or the Trustee all money held 

  
 31 








 
by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, and will notify the Trustee of any default by the Company in making any such payment. While any such
default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent
(if other than the Company or a Subsidiary) will have no further liability for such money. If the Company or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it will segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it
as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Company, the Trustee will serve as Paying Agent for the Notes. 

Section 2.05. Holder Lists. 
 The
Trustee will preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of all Holders and shall otherwise comply with TIA § 312(a). If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the
Company will furnish to the Trustee at least seven Business Days before each Interest Payment Date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the
names and addresses of the Holders of Notes and the Company shall otherwise comply with TIA § 312(a). 
 Section 2.06. Transfer and
Exchange.  
 (a) Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes. A Global Note may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary
to a nominee of the Depositary, by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or to another nominee of the Depositary, or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary. All Global Notes
will be exchanged by the Company for Certificated Notes if: 
 (1) the Company delivers to the Trustee notice from the
Depositary (A) that it is unwilling or unable to continue to act as Depositary for the Global Notes and a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Company within 90 days after the date of such notice from the Depositary or (B) that it
is no longer a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act; 
 (2) the Company at its option and in its sole
discretion, determines that the Global Notes (in whole but not in part) will be exchanged for Certificated Notes and delivers a written notice to such effect to the Trustee; provided that in no event shall any Regulation S Temporary Global
Note be exchanged by the Company for Certificated Notes prior to (A) the expiration of the Restricted Period and (B) the receipt by the Registrar of any certificates required pursuant to Rule 903(b)(3)(ii)(B) under the Securities Act; or

 (3) there has occurred and is continuing an Event of Default with respect to the Notes. 

Upon the occurrence of any of the preceding events in (1), (2) or (3) above, Certificated Notes shall be issued in such names as the Depositary
shall instruct the Trustee. Global Notes also may be exchanged or replaced, in whole or in part, as provided in Sections 2.07 (“Replacement 

  
 32 








 
Notes”) and 2.10 (“Temporary Notes”) hereof. Every Note authenticated and delivered in exchange for, or in lieu of, a Global Note or any portion thereof, pursuant to this
Section 2.06 (“Transfer and Exchange”) (except an exchange for a Certificated Note as provided in this Section 2.06(a)), Section 2.07 (“Replacement Notes”) or Section 2.10 (“Temporary Notes”) 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 2.06(a), however, beneficial interests in a Global Note may be
transferred and exchanged as provided in Section 2.06(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 will be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture and the Applicable Procedures. Beneficial interests in the
Restricted Global Notes will be subject to restrictions on transfer comparable to those set forth herein to the extent required by the Securities Act. Transfers of beneficial interests in the Global Notes also will require compliance with either

interests in any Regulation S Temporary Global Note may not be made to a U.S. Person or for the account or benefit of a U.S. Person (other than a “distributor” (as defined in Rule 902(d) of Regulation S)). Beneficial interests in any
Unrestricted Global Notes may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note. Except as may be required by any Applicable Procedures, no written orders or instructions shall be
required to be delivered to the Registrar to effect the transfers described in this Section 2.06(b)(1).

 33 








 (2) a transfer thereof to an Institutional Accredited Investor shall be made

the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Restricted Global Notes, and the Company shall execute and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02 hereof, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the

 In addition, the foregoing legend may be adjusted for future issuances in accordance with

 (h)
Cancellation and/or Adjustment of Global Notes. At such time as all beneficial interests in a particular Global Note have been exchanged for Certificated Notes or a particular Global Note has been redeemed, repurchased or canceled in whole
and not in part, each such Global Note will be returned to or retained and canceled by the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.11 (“Cancellation”) hereof. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial


  
 46 








 
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 Certificated Notes, the
principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note will be reduced accordingly and an endorsement will be made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by the Custodian 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 will be increased accordingly and an endorsement will be made on
such Global Note by the Trustee or by the Custodian at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such increase. 
 (i) General Provisions
Relating to Transfers and Exchanges. 
 (1) To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company will execute
and the Trustee will authenticate Global Notes and Certificated Notes upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02 (“Execution and Authentication”) hereof or at the Registrar’s request. 

(2) No service charge will be made to a Holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Note or to a Holder of a Certificated Note
for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company 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 2.10 (“Temporary Notes”), 3.06 (“Notes Redeemed or Purchased in Part”), 3.09 (“Offer to Purchase by Application of Excess Proceeds”), 4.18
(“Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control”), 4.19 (“Asset Sales”) and 9.05 (“Notation on or Exchange of Notes”) hereof). 

(3) The Registrar will not be required to register the transfer of or exchange of any Note selected for redemption in whole or
in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. 
 (4) All Global Notes and Certificated Notes
issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Global Notes or Certificated Notes will be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Global Notes or
Certificated Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. 
 (5) Neither the Registrar nor the Company
will 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 3.02 (“Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed or Purchased”) hereof and ending at the close of business on the day of selection; 

(B) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note 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. 

  
 47 








 (6) Prior to due presentment for the registration of a transfer of any Note, the
Trustee, any Agent and the Company may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest on such Notes and for all other purposes, and
none of the Trustee, any Agent or the Company shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 (7) The Trustee will
authenticate Global Notes and Certificated Notes in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02 (“Execution and Authentication”) hereof. 

(8) All certifications, certificates and Opinions of Counsel required to be submitted to the Registrar pursuant to this
Section 2.06 to effect a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted by facsimile. 
 Section 2.07. Replacement Notes. 

If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or the Company and the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction,
loss or theft of any Note, the Company will issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, will authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements are met. If required by the Trustee or the Company, an indemnity bond
must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Company to protect the Company, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Company
may charge for its expenses in replacing a Note. If, after the delivery of such replacement Note, a bona fide purchaser of the original Note in lieu of which such replacement Note was issued presents for payment or registration such original Note,
the Trustee shall be entitled to recover such replacement Note from the Person to whom it was delivered or any Person taking therefrom, except a bona fide purchaser, and shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity provided therefor
to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by the Company, the Trustee and any Agent in connection therewith. 
 Subject to
the provisions of the final sentence of the preceding paragraph, every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Company and will be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly
issued hereunder. 
 Section 2.08. Outstanding Notes. 

The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for
cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture, and those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding. Except as set forth in Section 2.09
(“Treasury Notes”) hereof, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Note; however, Notes held by the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company shall not be deemed to be outstanding
for purposes of Section 3.07(a) (“Optional Redemption”) hereof. 

  
 48 








 If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07 (“Replacement Notes”) hereof, it
ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser. 
 If
the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.01 (“Payment of Notes”) hereof, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue. 

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

Section 2.09. Treasury Notes. 
 In
determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Company or any Guarantor, or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under
direct or indirect common control with the Company or any Guarantor, will be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee will be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent,
only Notes that the Trustee knows are so owned will be so disregarded. 
 Section 2.10. Temporary Notes. 

Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication
Order, will authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes will be substantially in the form of certificated Notes but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as may be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.
Without unreasonable delay, the Company will prepare and the Trustee will authenticate Certificated Notes in exchange for temporary Notes. 

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

Section 2.11. Cancellation. 
 The
Company at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and Paying Agent will forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else will
cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and will destroy canceled Notes (subject to the record retention requirements of the Exchange Act and the Trustee). Certification of the
destruction or cancellation of all canceled Notes will be delivered to the Company. The Company may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 

Section 2.12. Overdue Interest; Default Interest; Additional Interest. 

The Company will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium,
if any, and interest (without regard to 

  
 49 








 
any applicable grace period) from time to time at the rate then in effect on the Notes to the extent lawful to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent Record Date, in each case at the rate
provided as set forth in the Notes and consistent with Section 4.01 (“Payment of Notes”) hereof (such interest, “Overdue Interest”). The Company will notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Overdue Interest
proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment. The Company will fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date and payment date; provided that no such special record date may be less than 10 days prior to the related
payment date for such Overdue Interest. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Company (or, upon the written request of the Company, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company) will mail or cause to be sent to Holders a
notice that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid. 
 In addition, the Company
will pay Default Interest, if any, that accrues as described under Section 6.01 (“Events of Default”) to the extent that the Company elects to pay such Default Interest pursuant to Section 6.01 and will pay Additional Interest,
if any, to Holders of Notes pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement. 
 Section 2.13. Persons Deemed Owners. 

The Holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes. Only Holders have rights under this Indenture and the Notes. 

Section 2.14. Interest Payment Date; Record Date. 

Interest on outstanding Notes will accrue from March 18, 2014 at the rate of 6.125% per annum and will be payable semi-annually in
arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, commencing on September 15, 2014 (each, an “Interest Payment Date”). The Company will make each interest payment to the Holders of record on the immediately preceding
March 1 and September 1 (each, a “Record Date”). Interest on the Notes will accrue from the date of original issuance or, if interest has already been paid, from the date it was most recently paid. Interest will be
computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.

 50 








 Section 3.02. Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed or Purchased. 

If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee will select Notes for redemption as follows: 

(1) if the Notes are listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of the principal national
securities exchange on which the Notes are listed; or 
 (2) if the Notes are not listed on any national securities exchange,
on a pro rata basis, by lot unless otherwise required by law. 
 In the event of partial redemption or purchase by lot, the particular Notes
to be redeemed or purchased will be selected, unless otherwise provided herein, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption or purchase date by the Trustee from the outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption or
purchase. 
 The Trustee will promptly notify the Company in writing of the Notes selected for redemption or purchase and, in the case of
any Note selected for partial redemption or purchase, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed or purchased. Notes and portions of Notes selected will be in minimum amounts of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000; except that if all of the
Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed or purchased, the entire outstanding amount of Notes held by such Holder, even if not a multiple of $1,000, shall be redeemed or purchased. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this
Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption or purchase also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase. 
 Section 3.03.
Notice of Redemption. 
 Subject to the provisions of Section 3.09 (“Offer to Purchase by Application of Excess
Proceeds”) hereof, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, the Company will mail or cause to be mailed, by first class mail, a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered
address, except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Articles VIII or X
hereof. 
 The notice will identify the Notes to be redeemed and will state: 

(1) the redemption date; 

(2) the redemption price; 

(3) if the Notes are being redeemed in part: 

(A) that the Trustee shall select Notes for redemption on a pro rata basis, by lot, unless otherwise required by law or
applicable stock exchange or Depositary requirements, and in any case, not in parts of $2,000 or less; and 
 (B) the portion
of the principal amount of such Notes to be redeemed and that, after the redemption date upon surrender of such Notes, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion will be issued upon cancellation of the original Note;


  
 51 








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

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

(6) that, unless the Company defaults in making such redemption payment, interest on Notes called for redemption ceases to
accrue on and after the redemption date; 
 (7) the paragraph of the Notes and/or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which
the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed; and 
 (8) that no representation is made as to the correctness or
accuracy of the CUSIP number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes. 
 At the Company’s request, the Trustee will give
the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at its expense; provided, however, that the Company has delivered to the Trustee, at least 45 days prior to the redemption date, an Officers’ Certificate requesting that the Trustee
give such notice and setting forth the information (or a shorter period as agreed to by the Trustee) to be stated in such notice as provided in this Section 3.03 (“Notice of Redemption”) above. 

Section 3.04. Effect of Notice of Redemption. 

Once notice of redemption is mailed in accordance with Section 3.03 (“Notice of Redemption”) hereof, Notes called for
redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the redemption date at the redemption price. A notice of redemption may not be conditional. 

Section 3.05. Deposit of Redemption or Purchase Price. 

No later than 10:00 a.m. New York City time on the redemption or purchase date, the Company will deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying
Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption or purchase price of and accrued interest on all Notes to be redeemed or purchased on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent will promptly return to the Company any money deposited with the Trustee or
the Paying Agent by the Company in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption or purchase price of, and accrued interest on, all Notes to be redeemed or purchased. 

If the Company complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on and after the redemption or purchase date, interest will cease to
accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase. If a Note is redeemed or purchased on or after a Record Date but on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, then any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to
the Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such Record Date. If any Note called for redemption or purchase is not so paid upon surrender for 

  
 52 








 
redemption or purchase because of the failure of the Company to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption or purchase date until
such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 (“Payment of Notes”) hereof. 

Section 3.06. Notes Redeemed or Purchased in Part. 

Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed or purchased in part, the Company will issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, the
Trustee will authenticate for the Holder at the expense of the Company a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered. 

Section 3.07. Optional Redemption.

such Equity Offering. 
 (e) Any redemption pursuant to this Section 3.07 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.01
through 3.06 hereof. 

  
 53 








 Section 3.08. No Mandatory Redemption.

Section 3.09. Offer to Purchase by Application of Excess Proceeds.

Holders to purchase Notes (an “Asset Sale Offer”), it will follow the procedures specified below and in Sections 4.19(c), (d), (e) and (f): 

(a) The Asset Sale Offer shall be made to all Holders and, to the extent required, to all holders of other Indebtedness of the Company that is

Indebtedness tendered in response to the Asset Sale Offer. Payment for any Notes so purchased will be made in the same manner as interest payments are made. 

(d) If the Purchase Date is on or after a Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest will
be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no additional interest will be payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. 

(e) Upon the commencement of an Asset Sale Offer, the Company will send, by first class mail, a notice to the Trustee and each of the Holders.
The notice will contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. The notice, which will govern the terms of the Asset Sale Offer, will state: 

(1) that the Asset Sale Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 3.09 and Section 4.19 (“Asset Sales”)
hereof and the length of time the Asset Sale Offer will remain open; 

  
 54 








 (2) the Offer Amount, the purchase price and the Purchase Date; 

(3) that any Note not tendered or accepted for payment will continue to accrue interest; 

(4) that, unless the Company defaults in making such payment, any Note accepted for payment pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer
will cease to accrue interest after the Purchase Date; 
 (5) that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to an
Asset Sale Offer may elect to have Notes purchased in amounts not less than $2,000 and, thereafter, in integral multiples of $1,000 only; 

(6) that Holders electing to have Notes purchased pursuant to any Asset Sale Offer will be required to surrender the Note, with
the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to the Notes completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Company, a Depositary, if appointed by the Company, or a Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice
at least three days before the Purchase Date; 
 (7) that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their election if the Company,
the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives, not later than the expiration of the Offer Period, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Note the
Holder delivered for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Note purchased; 

(8) that, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness surrendered by holders thereof
exceeds the Offer Amount, the Trustee will select the Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis based on the principal amount of Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness surrendered (with
such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Company so that no Note of $2,000 or less can be redeemed in part and that minimum denominations of $1,000 in excess thereof are maintained); and 

(9) that Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part will be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased
portion of the Notes surrendered (or transferred by book-entry transfer). 
 On or before the Purchase Date, the Company will, to the extent
lawful, accept for payment, on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the Offer Amount of Notes or portions thereof tendered pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer, or if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered, and will
deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Company in accordance with the terms of this
Section 3.09 and Section 4.19 (“Asset Sales”). The Paying Agent will promptly (but in any case not later than three Business Days after the termination of the Offer Period) mail to Holder of Notes properly tendered an amount
equal to the purchase price of the Notes tendered by such Holder and accepted by the Company for purchase, and the Company will promptly issue a new Note, 

  
 55 








 
and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new Note in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Notes
surrendered, if any. Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Company to the Holder thereof. The Company will publicly announce the results of the Asset Sale Offer on the Purchase Date. 

Other than as specifically provided in this Section 3.09, any purchase pursuant to this Section 3.09 shall be made pursuant to the
provisions of Sections 3.01 (“Notices to Trustee”) through 3.06 (“Notes Redeemed or Purchased in Part”) hereof. 
 The
Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with any Asset Sale Offer. To the extent
that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Asset Sale provisions of this Indenture, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations
under Section 4.19 (“Asset Sales”) of this Indenture by virtue of such conflict. 
 ARTICLE IV.

manner provided in this Indenture and the Notes. Principal, premium, if any, and interest will be considered paid on the date due if the Paying Agent, if other than the Company or a Subsidiary thereof, holds as of noon New York City time on the due
date money deposited by the Company in immediately available funds and designated for and sufficient to pay all principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes then due. If a payment date is not a Business Day, payment may be made on the next

 Section 4.02. Maintenance of Office or Agency. 

The Company will maintain an office or agency (which may be an office of the Trustee or an affiliate of the Trustee, Registrar or
co-registrar) where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Company will give prompt written notice to
the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Company fails to maintain any such required office or agency or fails to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations,
surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee. 
 The Company may also from time to
time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any
such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

 Section 4.03. Corporate
Existence. 
 Subject to Article V, the Company shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and
effect its corporate existence, and the corporate, partnership or other existence of each of its Restricted Subsidiaries, in accordance with the respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to time) of the Company or any
such Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to preserve any existence of any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, if the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine that the preservation thereof is
no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole. 
 Section 4.04. Compliance
Certificate. 
 (a) The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year, an Officers’
Certificate stating that a review of the activities of the Company and its Subsidiaries during the preceding fiscal year has been made under the supervision of the signing Officers with a view to determining whether the Company has kept, observed,
performed and fulfilled its obligations under this Indenture, and further stating, as to each such Officer signing such certificate, that to the best of his or her knowledge the Company has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled its obligations
under this Indenture and is not in default in the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture (or, if a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, describing all such Defaults or
Events of Default of which he or she may have knowledge and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto) and that, to the best of his or her knowledge, the Company is not a party to a decree, order or written agreement
nor has any statutory law, regulation or rule applicable to the Company been enacted that, in each case, by its express terms, prohibits the payment of the principal of, or premium or interest, if any, on the Notes when due pursuant to the Indenture

(b) So long as any of the Notes are outstanding, the Company will deliver to the Trustee, forthwith upon any Officer becoming aware of any
Default or Event of Default, an Officers’ Certificate specifying such Default or Event of Default and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. 

Section 4.05. Taxes. 
 The Company
will pay, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to pay, prior to delinquency, all material taxes, assessments, and governmental levies except such as are contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings or where the failure to effect such

 57 








 Section 4.06. Stay, Extension and Usury Laws. 

The Company and each of the Guarantors covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, plead,
or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company and
each of the Guarantors (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not, by resort to any such law, 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 has been enacted. 
 Section 4.07.
Restricted Payments. 
 (a) The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly:

 (1) declare or pay any dividend or make any other payment or distribution on account of any Equity Interests of the
Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, any payment in connection with any merger or consolidation involving the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) or to the direct or indirect holders of the Equity
Interests of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in their capacity as such (other than dividends or distributions declared or paid in Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Company or to the Company or any Restricted
Subsidiary of the Company); 
 (2) purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire or retire for value (including, without limitation,
in connection with any merger or consolidation involving the Company) any Equity Interests of the Company or any direct or indirect parent of the Company; 

(3) make any payment to purchase, redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value any Indebtedness that is
subordinated to the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantees, except a payment of interest or principal at a Stated Maturity thereof; or 

(4) make any Restricted Investment 

(all such payments and other actions set forth in clauses (1) through (4) above being collectively referred to as “Restricted
Payments”), unless, at the time of and after giving effect to such Restricted Payment: 
 (1) no Default has
occurred and is continuing or would occur as a consequence of such Restricted Payment; 
 (2) the Company would, at the time
of such Restricted Payment and after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Restricted Payment had been made at the 

  
 58 








 
beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, have been permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in
Section 4.08(a) (“Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock”) hereof; and 
 (3) such
Restricted Payment, together with the aggregate amount of all other Restricted Payments made by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries after the beginning of the first fiscal quarter commencing immediately after the fiscal quarter in which the
Reference Date occurred (excluding Restricted Payments permitted by clauses (2), (3), (4), (5), (6), (7), (8) and (9) of paragraph (b) of this Section 4.07), is less than the sum, without duplication, of: 

(A) 50% of the Consolidated Net Income of the Company for the period (taken as one accounting period) from the beginning of the
first fiscal quarter commencing immediately after the fiscal quarter in which the Reference Date occurred to the end of the Company’s most recently ended fiscal quarter for which internal financial statements are available at the time of such
Restricted Payment (or, if such Consolidated Net Income for such period is a deficit, less 100% of such deficit); plus 

(B) 100% of the aggregate net cash proceeds, or the Fair Market Value of any Permitted Business or assets used or useful in a
Permitted Business, received by the Company from the issue or sale, in either case since the beginning of the first fiscal quarter commencing immediately after the fiscal quarter in which the Reference Date occurred of (i) Equity Interests of
the Company (other than Disqualified Stock) or (ii) debt securities of the Company that have been converted into or exchanged for such Equity Interests (other than Equity Interests (or Disqualified Stock or such debt securities) sold to a
Restricted Subsidiary of the Company), together with the aggregate cash received at the time of such conversion or exchange, or received by the Company from any such conversion or exchange of such debt securities sold or issued prior to the
beginning of such first fiscal quarter; plus 
 (C) to the extent not already included in Consolidated Net Income for
such period, (i) if any Restricted Investment that was made after the beginning of the first fiscal quarter commencing immediately after the fiscal quarter in which the Reference Date occurred is sold for cash or otherwise liquidated or repaid
for cash, the lesser of (1) the cash return of capital with respect to such Restricted Investment, including without limitation repayment of principal of any Restricted Investment constituting a loan or advance (less the cost of disposition, if
any) and (2) the initial amount of such Restricted Investment, plus (ii) the net reduction in such Restricted Investment resulting from payments of interest, dividends, principal repayments and other transfers and distributions of cash,
assets or property; plus 
 (D) if any Unrestricted Subsidiary is redesignated as a Restricted Subsidiary after the
Reference Date, the lesser of (i) the Fair Market Value of the 

  
 59 








 
Company’s and its Restricted Subsidiaries’ Investment in such Subsidiary as of the date of such redesignation or (ii) the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Company’s and its
Restricted Subsidiaries’ Investment in such Subsidiary as of the date on which such Subsidiary was originally designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary and all Investments made by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in such Unrestricted
Subsidiary that were treated as Restricted Payments since such designation, in each case as of the date of such Investment. 
 For the avoidance of doubt,
any amount which previously qualified as a Restricted Payment on account of any Guarantee entered into by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, provided that (1) such Guarantee has not been called upon and (2) either (a) such
Guarantee has been released or terminated, as the case may be, or (b) the obligation arising under such Guarantee no longer exists, shall not be considered as having been made as a Restricted Payment for purposes of calculating the amounts set
forth in preceding clause (3). 
 (b) The preceding provisions will not prohibit: 

(1) the payment of any dividend or distribution, or the consummation of an irrevocable redemption of subordinated Indebtedness
of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, within 60 days after the date of declaration of the dividend or distribution or delivery of the irrevocable notice of redemption, as the case may be, if at the date of such declaration the
dividend payment or distribution, or date on which such notice is delivered, such dividend, distribution or redemption, as the case may be, would have complied with the provisions of this Indenture; 

(2) the redemption, repurchase, retirement, defeasance or other acquisition of any subordinated Indebtedness of the Company or
any Restricted Subsidiary or of any Equity Interests of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in exchange for, or out of the net cash proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale (other than to a Subsidiary of the Company) of, Equity
Interests of the Company (other than Disqualified Stock); provided that the amount of any such net cash proceeds that are utilized for any such redemption, repurchase, retirement, defeasance or other acquisition will be excluded from clause
(3)(B) of the preceding paragraph; 
 (3) the making of any principal payment on, or the defeasance, redemption,
repurchase or other acquisition of, prior to a Stated Maturity, subordinated Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock of the Company or preferred stock of any Restricted Subsidiary with the net cash proceeds from an incurrence of, or exchange for the
issuance of, Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; 
 (4) the declaration or payment of any dividend or distribution by a
Restricted Subsidiary of the Company to the holders of its Equity Interests on a pro rata basis; 
 (5) so long as no Default
has occurred and is continuing or, immediately after giving effect thereto, would be caused thereby, the repurchase, redemption or other acquisition or retirement for value of any Equity Interests of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the
Company held by any existing or former employee or 

  
 60 








 
director of the Company (or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) pursuant to any employment agreements, equity subscription agreement, stock option agreement, management equity plan or stock
option plan or other management or employee benefit plan, agreement or trust or similar agreements and plans; provided that the aggregate price paid for all such repurchased, redeemed, acquired or retired Equity Interests pursuant to this clause
(5) may not exceed the sum of (i) $5.0 million in any twelve-month period, (ii) the aggregate net proceeds received by the Company during such twelve-month period from the issuance of such Equity Interests (other than Disqualified
Stock) pursuant to such agreements or plans and (iii) the net cash proceeds of key man life insurance received by the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries after the Issue Date; 

(6) so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing or, immediately after giving effect thereto, would be caused thereby,
the declaration and payment of dividends to holders of any class or series of Disqualified Stock of the Company issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture to the extent such dividends are included in the definition of “Fixed
Charges;” 
 (7) the acquisition of Equity Interests by the Company (i) in connection with the exercise of stock
options or stock appreciation rights by way of cashless exercise; (ii) in connection with the satisfaction of withholding tax obligations; or (iii) that may be deemed to occur, in connection with an acquisition by the Company or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries, by the return of Equity Interests constituting a portion of the purchase consideration in settlement of indemnification claims; 

(8) so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing or, immediately after giving effect thereto, would be caused thereby,
the making of payment on, or the defeasance, redemption, repurchase, retirement or other acquisition, in each case, prior to its Stated Maturity, of any subordinated Indebtedness of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary by payments out of Excess
Proceeds remaining after completion of an Asset Sale Offer; 
 (9) the purchase by the Company of fractional shares arising
out of stock dividends, splits or combinations or business combinations or conversion of convertible or exchangeable securities of debt or equity of the Company; and 

(10) so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing or, immediately after giving effect thereto, would be caused thereby,
and to the extent not otherwise permitted in any other of the preceding clauses, Restricted Payments in an aggregate amount since the date Notes are first issued not to exceed the greater of (a) $50.0 million and (b) 5.0% of the
Company’s Consolidated Net Tangible Assets, as of the date of making such Restricted Payments. 
 (c) The amount of all Restricted
Payments (other than cash) will be the Fair Market Value on the date of the Restricted Payment of the asset(s) or securities proposed to be transferred or issued by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to the
Restricted Payment. In determining whether any Restricted Payment is permitted by this Section 4.07, the Company may allocate or reallocate, at any time and from time to time, all or a 

  
 61 








 
portion of such Restricted Payment among all clauses of the preceding paragraph (as of the Issue Date, such clauses being clauses (b)(1) through (b)(10)) or among such clauses and the
preceding paragraph (a) including clauses (A), (B) and (C), provided that at the time of such allocation or reallocation, all such Restricted Payments, or allocated portions thereof, would be permitted under the various provisions
of the foregoing covenant. 
 Section 4.08. Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock. 

(a) The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume,
guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect to (collectively, “incur”) any Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), and the Company will not issue any Disqualified Stock and
will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to issue any shares of preferred stock; provided, however, that the Company and any Guarantor may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) and the Company may issue Disqualified Stock if
the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the Company’s most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date on which such additional Indebtedness is incurred or such
Disqualified Stock is issued would have been at least 2.0 to 1, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom), as if the additional Indebtedness had been incurred or the Disqualified Stock had been
issued, as the case may be, at the beginning of such four-quarter period. 
 (b) The provisions of Section 4.08(a) hereof will not
apply to or prohibit the incurrence of any of the following items of Indebtedness (collectively, “Permitted Debt”): 

(1) Indebtedness of the Company or any Guarantors of Indebtedness under one or more Credit Facilities in an aggregate principal
amount at any one time outstanding (with outstanding letters of credit being deemed to have a principal amount equal to the maximum potential liability of the Company and its Subsidiaries thereunder at each relevant time of determination) not to
exceed the greater of (a) $400.0 million and (b) $100.0 million plus 30% of the Company’s Consolidated Net Tangible Assets; 

(2) the Existing Indebtedness; 

(3) Indebtedness of the Company or any Guarantors represented by the Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees to be issued on the
Issue Date and the Exchange Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees to be issued pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement; 

(4) Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries represented by Capital Lease
Obligations, mortgage financings or purchase money obligations, in each case, incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the acquisition of, or cost of construction, improvement, material repair or development of property, plant or
equipment used in a Permitted Business, in an aggregate principal amount, including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to extend, defease, refund, refinance or replace any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (4), not to exceed
the greater of (a) $25.0 million and (b) 3.0% of the Company’s Consolidated Net Tangible Assets, at any time outstanding; 

  
 62 








 (5) Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness of the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries issued in exchange for, or the net proceeds of which are used to extend, defease, refund, refinance or replace, any Indebtedness (other than intercompany Indebtedness) that was incurred under Section 4.08(a) or clauses (2), (3),
(5) or (13) of this paragraph (b); 
 (6) intercompany Indebtedness between or among the Company and any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries incurred by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided that: 
 (A) if the
Company or any Guarantor is the obligor on such Indebtedness and a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company which is not a Guarantor is the obligee thereon, such Indebtedness must be expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all
Obligations with respect to the Notes, in the case of the Company, or the Subsidiary Guarantee, in the case of a Guarantor; and 

(B) (i) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that results in any such Indebtedness being held by a Person
other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary and (ii) any sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person that is not either the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary will be deemed, in each case, to constitute an incurrence of
such Indebtedness by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, on the date of such issuance, sale or transfer that is not then permitted by this clause (6); 

(7) Hedging Obligations of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries incurred in the normal course of business and not
for speculative purposes, designed to protect the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary against fluctuations in interest rates or currency exchange rates with respect to Indebtedness incurred or against fluctuations in the price of commodities used
by that entity at the time; 
 (8) Guarantees by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness of the
Company or any Restricted Subsidiary that was permitted to be incurred by another provision of this Section 4.08; provided that if such Indebtedness being guaranteed is subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or a Subsidiary
Guarantee, then the Guarantee of that Indebtedness by the Company or the Guarantor shall be subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or the Guarantor’s Subsidiary Guarantee, as the case may be; 

(9) Indebtedness of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in respect of workers’ compensation claims,
self-insurance obligations, bid, performance, surety, appeal and similar bonds and obligations and completion guarantees provided by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary in the ordinary course of business; 

(10) Indebtedness of the Company or any of its the Restricted Subsidiaries arising from the honoring by a bank or other
financial institution of a check, draft or similar instrument (except in the case of daylight overdrafts) drawn against insufficient 

  
 63 








 
funds in the ordinary course of business; provided that such Indebtedness is extinguished within five Business Days following the Company’s receipt of notice of the incurrence thereof; 

(11) Indebtedness of the Company or any of its the Restricted Subsidiaries represented by agreements of the Company or a
Restricted Subsidiary of the Company providing for indemnification, adjustment of purchase price or similar obligations, earn-outs or other similar obligations, in each case, incurred or assumed in connection with the acquisition or disposition of
any business, assets or Capital Stock of the Company or any such Restricted Subsidiary; provided that the maximum aggregate liability in respect of all such Indebtedness incurred in connection with a disposition shall at no time exceed the
gross proceeds actually received by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with such disposition; 
 (12)
Acquired Debt of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to the extent such Indebtedness was Indebtedness of (a) a Subsidiary prior to the date on which such Subsidiary became a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company or (b) a
Person that was acquired (by acquisition of its Capital Stock, merger, consolidation or otherwise) by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than Indebtedness incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such acquisition);
provided that, at the time such Subsidiary becomes a Restricted Subsidiary or is acquired by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, the Company would have been able to incur $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to
Section 4.08(a) immediately after giving effect to the incurrence of such Indebtedness pursuant to this clause (12); and 

(13) to the extent not otherwise permitted by any other Permitted Debt clause, Indebtedness of the Company or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries in an aggregate principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) at any time outstanding, including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to refund, refinance or replace any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this
clause (13), not to exceed the greater of (a) $50.0 million and (b) 5.0% of the Company’s Consolidated Net Tangible Assets. 

For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.08, if an item of proposed Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) at any time
meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (1) through (13) of this Section 4.08(b), or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.08(a), the Company will be permitted to
classify (and later reclassify) in whole or in part in its sole discretion such item of Indebtedness in any manner that complies with this Section 4.08, and such item of Indebtedness or portion thereof may be classified (or later classified or
reclassified) in whole or in part as having been incurred under more than one of the applicable clauses of Permitted Debt under this Section 4.08(b) or pursuant to Section 4.08(a). Indebtedness permitted by this Section 4.08 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 none other provisions of this Section 4.08 permitting such Indebtedness. 

The accrual of interest, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest on any Indebtedness in the form of
additional Indebtedness with the same 

  
 64 








 
terms, and the accretion or payment of dividends on any Disqualified Stock in the form of additional shares of the same class of Disqualified Stock will not be deemed to be an incurrence of
Indebtedness or an issuance of Disqualified Stock for purposes of this Section 4.08; provided, in each such case, that the amount thereof is included in Fixed Charges of the Company as accrued. 

If an Unrestricted Subsidiary incurs Non-Recourse Debt and any such Indebtedness ceases to be Non-Recourse Debt of such Unrestricted
Subsidiary, then such event shall be deemed to constitute an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company that is subject to this Section 4.08. In addition, if at any time an Unrestricted Subsidiary fails to meet the
definitional requirements as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it will thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of this Indenture, and any then outstanding Indebtedness of such Subsidiary will be deemed to be incurred by a Restricted
Subsidiary of the Company as of such date, and such incurrence will be subject to this Section 4.08. 
 For purposes of determining
compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount of such Indebtedness incurred pursuant thereto will be calculated based on the
relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was incurred; provided that, if such Indebtedness is incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in the same 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, the U.S. dollar-denominated restriction will be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as
the principal amount of the refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of the Indebtedness being refinanced. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.08, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Company or any
Restricted Subsidiary may incur pursuant to this Section 4.08 will not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies. 

The amount of any Indebtedness outstanding as of any date will be: 

(1) the accreted value of the Indebtedness, in the case of any Indebtedness issued with original issue discount; 

(2) the principal amount of the Indebtedness, in the case of any other Indebtedness; 

(3) in respect of Indebtedness of another Person secured by a Lien on the assets of the specified Person, the lesser of: 

(A) the Fair Market Value of such assets at the date of determination; and 

(B) the amount of the Indebtedness of the other Person; and 

(4) if Indebtedness is secured by a letter of credit that only secures such Indebtedness, then the aggregate amount deemed
incurred by such Indebtedness and such letter of credit shall be equal to the greater of (a) the principal amount of such Indebtedness and (b) the amount that can be drawn under such letter of credit.

 Section 4.09. Liens. 

The Company will not, and will not permit any of the Restricted Subsidiaries to, create, incur, assume or otherwise cause or permit to exist
any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) securing any Indebtedness upon any of their property or assets, now owned or hereafter acquired, or any income or profits therefrom or assign or convey any right to receive income therefrom, unless all payments
due under this Indenture and unless the Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees, as applicable, are secured on an equal and ratable basis (or on a senior basis to, in the case of obligations subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or Subsidiary
Guarantee, as the case may be) with the obligations so secured until such time as such obligations are no longer secured by a Lien. 
 Section 4.10.
Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Subsidiaries. 
 The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or permit to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to: 

(1) pay dividends or make any other distributions on its Capital Stock to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or
with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits, or pay any Indebtedness owed to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided that the priority of any preferred stock in receiving dividends
or liquidating distributions prior to the payment of dividends or liquidating distributions on common stock shall not be deemed to be a restriction on the ability to make distributions on Capital Stock; 

(2) make loans or advances to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; or 

(3) transfer any of its assets to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries. 

However, the preceding restrictions will not apply to encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of: 

(1) agreements governing Existing Indebtedness, Credit Facilities and Hedging Obligations and any amendments, modifications,
restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of those agreements; provided that such agreements, Credit Facilities, Hedging Obligations and the amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals,
increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings thereof are no more restrictive, taken as a whole, with respect to such dividend and other payment restrictions than those contained in those agreements on the Issue Date; 

  
 66 








 (2) applicable law or any applicable rule, regulation or order of any court or
governmental authority; 
 (3) any instrument governing Indebtedness or Capital Stock, or any other agreement relating to any
assets, of a Person acquired by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries as in effect at the time of such acquisition (except to the extent such restriction was created in contemplation of such acquisition), which encumbrance or restriction
is not applicable to any Person, or the assets of any Person, other than the Person, or the assets of the Person, so acquired; provided that, in the case of Indebtedness, such Indebtedness was permitted by the terms of this Indenture to be
incurred; 
 (4) (a) customary non-assignment provisions in any contract, license or lease and (b) cash, other deposits,
or net worth or similar requirements; in each case, imposed by suppliers or landlords under contracts, in the case of each of subclauses (a) and (b), entered into in the ordinary course of business and consistent with past practices; 

(5) purchase money obligations for property acquired in the ordinary course of business that impose restrictions on that
property of the nature described in clause (3) of the preceding paragraph; 
 (6) any restriction with respect to a
Restricted Subsidiary imposed pursuant to an agreement for the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Capital Stock or assets of such Restricted Subsidiary pending the closing of such sale or other disposition; 

(7) Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; provided that the encumbrances or restrictions contained in the agreements
governing such Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness are no more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in the agreements governing the Indebtedness being refinanced; 

(8) Liens securing Indebtedness otherwise permitted to be incurred under the provisions of Section 4.09
(“Liens”) that limit the right of the debtor to dispose of the assets subject to such Liens; and 
 (9) provisions
with respect to the disposition or distribution of assets or property in joint venture agreements, asset sale agreements, agreements relating to sale and leaseback transactions, stock sale agreements and other similar agreements entered into in the
ordinary course of business. 
 Section 4.11. Transactions with Affiliates. 

(a) The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or
otherwise dispose of any of its assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of any such
Person (each, an “Affiliate Transaction”) if such Affiliate Transaction involves aggregate consideration in excess of $5.0 million, unless: 

(1) such Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to the Company or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than
those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person or, if no comparable transaction is available with which to compare such Affiliate Transaction, such Affiliate
Transaction is otherwise fair to the Company or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view, as evidenced by the delivery of the Officers’ Certificate provided for in clause (2) below; and 

  
 67 








 (2) the Company delivers to the Trustee: 

(A) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in
excess of $10.0 million but less than $25.0 million, an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (1) above; and 

(B) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in
excess of $25.0 million, a resolution of its Board of Directors set forth in an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (1) above and that such Affiliate Transaction has been approved by a
majority of the disinterested members of its Board of Directors. 
 (b) The following items will not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions
and, therefore, will not be subject to the provisions of paragraph (a) of this Section: 
 (1) any employment, equity
award, equity option or equity appreciation agreement, plan agreement or similar compensation arrangement, employee benefit plan, officer or director indemnification agreement or any similar arrangement entered into by the Company or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business and consistent with past practices and payments pursuant thereto; 

(2) fees and compensation paid to, and indemnity provided on behalf of, officers, directors, employees or consultants of the
Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in their capacity as such, to the extent such fees and compensation are reasonable and customary;

to exceed $1.0 million in the aggregate outstanding at any one time; 
 (4) transactions between or among (i) the
Company and one or more of its Restricted Subsidiaries and (ii) any Restricted Subsidiaries; 
 (5) transactions with a
Person that is an Affiliate of the Company solely because the Company owns an Equity Interest in, or controls, such Person; 

(6) sales of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) to Affiliates of the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries; 

  
 68 








 (7) Restricted Payments that are permitted pursuant to Section 4.07
(“Restricted Payments”) hereof; and 
 (8) the performance of obligations of the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries under the terms of any agreement to which the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is a party as of the Issue Date, and any amendments, modifications, supplements, extensions or renewals of those agreements entered into after
the Issue Date; provided that, such amendments, modifications, supplements, extensions or renewals do not, in any material respects, adversely affect the rights, taken as a whole, of the holders of the notes as compared to the terms of the
agreement in effect on the Issue Date. 
 Section 4.12. Business Activities. 

The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, engage in any line of business activity other than Permitted
Businesses, except to such extent as would not be material to the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole. 
 Section 4.13. Termination of
Covenants. 
 In the event that at any time (a) the Notes have a Moody’s rating of Baa3 (or the equivalent) or higher or an
S&P rating of BBB- (or the equivalent) or higher (each, an “Investment Grade Rating”) and (b) no Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries will no longer be subject to
Section 4.07 (“Restricted Payments”), Section 4.08 (“Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock”), Section 4.09 (“Liens”), Section 4.10 (“Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions
Affecting Subsidiaries”), Section 4.11 (“Transactions with Affiliates”), Section 4.12 (“Business Activities”), Section 4.19 (“Asset Sales”), clauses (a) and (c) of Section 4.20
(“Sale and Leaseback Transactions”), and clause (4) of Section 5.01(a) (“Merger, Consolidation, or Sale of Assets”). The Company will provide prompt written notice to the Trustee of the Company’s determination that
a covenant termination under this Section 4.13 has occurred. 
 Upon the occurrence of an Investment Grade Rating Event, as a result of
the elimination of the covenant in Section 4.09 (“Liens”), the covenant described below under Section 4.21 (“Secured Indebtedness”) will apply to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries and become effective only
upon the occurrence of such an Investment Grade Rating Event. 
 Section 4.14. Additional Subsidiary Guarantees. 

If any Domestic Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor guarantees, assumes or in any other manner becomes liable for Indebtedness of the Company
or any Guarantor, then such Domestic Subsidiary will (1) become a Guarantor, (2) execute a supplemental Indenture in the form attached as Exhibit E hereto and deliver an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Trustee and (3) execute
an amendment to the Registration Rights Agreement pursuant to which it becomes subject to the obligations of a Guarantor thereunder, in each case, within 10 Business Days of the date on which it so became liable with respect to such Indebtedness;
provided that, any Domestic Subsidiary that constitutes an Immaterial Subsidiary shall not be required to become a Guarantor until such time as it ceases to be an Immaterial Subsidiary. Upon the release, termination or


  
 69 








 
satisfaction of such Domestic Subsidiary’s guarantee or assumption of such Indebtedness, or as otherwise provided in this Indenture, that Restricted Subsidiary’s Subsidiary Guarantee
shall automatically be released and terminated. 
 Section 4.15. Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries. 

(a) The Board of Directors of the Company may designate any Restricted Subsidiary to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if the Subsidiary meets or
would meet the definition of an “Unrestricted Subsidiary” and if no Default shall occur immediately after giving effect to such designation. If a Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate Fair Market Value of
all outstanding Investments owned by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary properly designated will be deemed to be an Investment made as of the date of designation and will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments
under paragraphs (a) or (b) of Section 4.07 (“Restricted Payments”) or Permitted Investments, as determined by the Company. That designation will only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time and if
such Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. 
 (b) The Board of Directors of the Company may designate any
Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if, immediately after giving effect to such designation, a Default would not occur; provided that such designation will be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted
Subsidiary of the Company of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary and such designation will only be permitted if such Indebtedness is permitted under Section 4.08 (“Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of
Preferred Stock”), calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the four-quarter reference period. 

Section 4.16. Payments for Consent. 

The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any
consideration to or for the benefit of any Holder of Notes for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture or the Notes unless such consideration is offered to be paid and is paid to
all Holders of the Notes that consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement. 

Section 4.17. Reports. 
 (a) Whether
or not required by the rules and regulations of the SEC, so long as any Notes are outstanding, the Company will furnish to the Trustee and the Holders of Notes, or file electronically with the SEC through the SEC’s Electronic Data Gathering,
Analysis and retrieval System (“EDGAR”) (or any successor filing system) within five Business Days of the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations: 

(1) all quarterly and annual financial information that would be required to be contained in a filing with the SEC on Forms
10-Q and 10-K if the Company were required to file such forms, including a “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and, with respect to the annual information only, a report on the
annual financial statements by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm; and 
 (2) all current
reports that would be required to be filed with the SEC on Form 8-K if the Company were required to file such reports. 

  
 70 








 All such reports will be prepared in all material respects in accordance with all of the rules
and regulations applicable to such reports. Each Annual Report on Form 10-K will include a report on the Company’s consolidated financial statements by the Company’s certified independent accountants. 

(b) If the Company has designated any of its Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries, then the quarterly and annual financial information
required by paragraph (a) will include a reasonably detailed presentation, either on the face of the financial statements or in the footnotes thereto, and in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations, of the financial condition and results of operations of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries separate from the financial condition and results of operations of the Unrestricted Subsidiaries of the Company. 

(c) The Company will file a copy of each of the reports referred to in paragraph (a) with the SEC for public availability (unless the SEC
will not accept such a filing). If, notwithstanding the foregoing, the SEC will not accept the Company’s filings for any reason, the Company will post the reports referred to in the preceding paragraphs on its website. Following the
consummation of the Exchange Offer contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement, whether or not required by the SEC, the Company will file a copy of all of the information and reports referred to in clauses (1) and (2) of paragraph
(a) with the SEC for public availability within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations (unless the SEC will not accept such a filing) and make such information available to securities analysts and prospective
investors upon request. The Company, and to the extent applicable, the Guarantors, will be deemed to have furnished such reports and other information to the Trustee and the Holders of Notes, and, to the extent herein provided, to securities
analysts and prospective investors, if it has filed such reports and other information with the SEC using the EDGAR filing system (or any successor filing system), or if such system is not available to the Company, if it has filed such reports and
other information on its website, and in each case, such reports and other information are publicly available thereon. 
 (d) The Company
will hold a quarterly conference call for the Holders of the Notes and securities analysts to discuss such financial information no later than 15 Business Days after distribution of such financial information. 

(e) The Company and the Guarantors agree that, for so long as any Notes remain outstanding, they will furnish to the Holders of Notes and to
securities analysts and prospective investors, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act. 

  
 71 








 Section 4.18. Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control. 

(a) If a Change of Control occurs, each Holder of the Notes will have a right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal to
$2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Notes pursuant to an offer by the Company (a “Change of Control Offer”) on the terms described below. In the Change of Control Offer, the Company will
offer a payment in cash (the “Change of Control Payment”) equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, thereon for the Notes repurchased, to
the date of purchase. Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Company will mail a notice to each Holder of the Notes describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control and offering to repurchase the Notes on
the date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), pursuant to the procedures described below and in
such notice. 
 The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and
regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with
the Change of Control provisions of this Indenture, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Change of Control provisions of this Indenture by
virtue of such conflict. 
 (b) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful: 

(1) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; 

(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 pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; and 
 (3) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the
Notes properly accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Company. 

The Paying Agent will promptly mail to each Holder of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer 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 new Note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. 
 The Company will not be
required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Indenture applicable to a Change
of Control Offer made by the Company and purchases all notes tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Change of Control Offer. 

  
 72 








 Section 4.19. Asset Sales. 

(a) The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale, unless: 

(1) the Company (or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives consideration at the time of the Asset Sale at
least equal to the Fair Market Value of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of; and 
 (2) at
least 75% of the consideration received in the Asset Sale by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents, or any combination thereof. 

For purposes of this provision, each of the following will be deemed to be cash: 

(A) any liabilities, as shown on the Company’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet, of the
Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any Subsidiary Guarantee) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to a customary
novation agreement that releases the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from further liability; 
 (B) any securities,
notes or other obligations received by the Company or any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash or Cash Equivalents within 180 days following the closing of such
Asset Sale, to the extent of the cash or Cash Equivalents received in that conversion; 
 (C) the Fair Market Value of all
forms of consideration other than cash or Cash Equivalents received for all Asset Sales since the Issue Date does not exceed in the aggregate 10.0% of Consolidated Net Worth of the Company at the time each determination is made; and 

(D) any Designated Non-cash Consideration, when taken together with all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received
pursuant to this clause (D) that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed the greater of $75.0 million and 5.0% of the Company’s 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). 

Any Asset Sale pursuant to an Involuntary Transfer shall not be required to satisfy the conditions set forth in clauses (1) and (2) of this
paragraph (a). 
 (b) Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale (including, without limitation, an
Involuntary Transfer), the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, as the case may be, may apply those Net Proceeds at its option as follows: 

(1) to prepay, repay, purchase, repurchase, redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire Senior Debt of the Company or any
Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary; 

  
 73 








 (2) to acquire all or substantially all of the assets of, or a majority of the
Voting Stock of, a Permitted Business; 
 (3) to make a capital expenditure in a Permitted Business; or 

(4) to acquire other non-current assets that are used or useful in a Permitted Business. 

The Company or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary will be deemed to have complied with clause (2) or (3) of this paragraph (b) if, within 365
days of such Asset Sale, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary shall have commenced and not completed or abandoned an expenditure or Investment, or a binding agreement with respect to an expenditure or Investment, in compliance with clause
(2) or (3), and that expenditure or Investment is substantially completed within a date one year and six months after the date of such Asset Sale. Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds, the Company will temporarily reduce any Credit
Facility or other revolving credit borrowings, or, in the absence of any such borrowings, invest the Net Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by this Indenture. 

(c) Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in paragraph (b) of this Section 4.19 will
constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $25.0 million, the Company will, within thirty days thereafter, make an Asset Sale Offer to all Holders of Notes and, to the extent required, all
holders of other Indebtedness of the Company that is pari passu with the Notes containing provisions similar to those set forth in this Indenture with respect to offers to purchase or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets, to purchase
the maximum principal amount of Notes (in integral multiples of $2,000) and such other pari passu Indebtedness that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds. 

(d) The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness to
be purchased or the lesser amount required under agreements governing such other pari passu Indebtedness, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, thereon to the date of purchase, and will be payable in cash. 

(e) If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the Company may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not
prohibited by this Indenture. 
 (f) If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness tendered into such
Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee will select the Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess
Proceeds will be reset at zero. 
 (g) The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, enter into or permit
to exist any agreement (other than any agreement governing Credit Facilities 

  
 74 








 
for Indebtedness permitted to be incurred pursuant to clause (1) of paragraph (b) of Section 4.08 (“Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock”) that
would place any restriction of any kind (other than pursuant to law or regulation) on the ability of the Company to make an Asset Sale Offer. 

Section 4.20. Sale and Leaseback Transactions 

The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, enter into any sale and leaseback transaction with a
Person other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable; provided that the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary may enter into such a sale and leaseback transaction if: 

(a) the Company or that Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, could have (a) incurred Indebtedness in an amount equal to the Attributable
Debt relating to such sale and leaseback transaction under Section 4.08 (“Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock”) hereof and (b) incurred a Lien to secure such Indebtedness pursuant to Section 4.09
(“Liens”) hereof; 
 (b) the gross cash proceeds of that sale and leaseback transaction are at least equal to the Fair Market
Value of the property that is the subject of that sale and leaseback transaction; and 
 (c) the transfer of assets in that sale and
leaseback transaction is permitted by, and the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary applies the proceeds of such transaction in compliance with Section 4.19 (“Asset Sales”) hereof. 

Section 4.21. Secured Indebtedness. 

From and after the occurrence of an Investment Grade Rating Event, as a result of the elimination of the covenant in Section 4.09
(“Liens”), as described in Section 4.13 (“Termination of Covenants”), if the Company or any Subsidiary incurs any Indebtedness secured by a Lien (other than a Permitted Lien) on any Principal Property or on any share of
stock or Indebtedness of a Subsidiary, the Company or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, will secure the Notes equally and ratably with (or, at its option, prior to) the Indebtedness so secured until such time as such Indebtedness is no longer
secured by a Lien, unless the aggregate amount of all Indebtedness secured by a Lien and the Attributable Debt of all sale and leaseback transactions involving Principal Property would not exceed 15% of the Company’s Consolidated Net Tangible
Assets.

be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries), whether
such Indebtedness or Guarantee now exists, or is created after the Issue Date, if that 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 on the date of such default (a “Payment Default”); or 

(B) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its Stated Maturity, 

  
 77 








 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 $25.0 million or more; 

(7) failure by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to pay final judgments aggregating in excess of $25.0 million
(excluding amounts covered by insurance, reimbursement agreements and indemnification agreements), which judgments are not paid, discharged or stayed for a period of 60 days; 

(8) except as permitted by this Indenture, any Subsidiary Guarantee shall be held in any judicial proceeding to be
unenforceable or invalid or shall cease for any reason (other than in accordance with the terms of that Guarantee and this Indenture) to be in full force and effect or any Guarantor shall deny or disaffirm its obligations under its Subsidiary
Guarantee (other than by reason of the termination of this Indenture or the release of any Subsidiary Guarantee in accordance with this Indenture); and 

(9) the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of their Restricted
Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary pursuant to or within the meaning of Bankruptcy Law: 

(A) commences a voluntary case; 

(B) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case; 

(C) consents to the appointment of a custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its property; 

(D) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; or 

(E) generally is not paying its debts as they become due; and 

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

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

  
 78 








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

(C) orders the liquidation of the Company or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group
of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary; 
 and the order or decree
remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days. 
 A Default under clause (3), (4) or (5) above will not be an Event of
Default until the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes notifies, in writing, the Company of the Default and requests compliance with the specific provision or agreement, as the case
may be, that is the subject of such Default, and the Company does not cure such Default within the specified time after receipt of such notice. 

Notwithstanding the above, if the Company elects, the sole remedy for a Default or an Event of Default relating to the failure to
comply with Section 4.17 (“Reports”), and/or for failure to comply with the requirements of Section 314(a)(1) of the TIA will, for the 60 days after the occurrence of such an Event of Default, consist exclusively of the right to
receive additional interest on the Notes at an annual rate equal to 0.25% of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding over such portion of the 60-day period immediately following such Event of Default during which such Event of Default is
continuing (such interest, “Default Interest”). In the event the Company does not elect to pay such Default Interest, upon an Event of Default under this Section, the Notes will be subject to acceleration as provided below in
Section 6.02 (“Acceleration”). The Default Interest will accrue on all outstanding Notes from and including the date on which an Event of Default relating to a failure to comply with Section 4.17 (“Reports”) and/or for
any failure to comply with the requirements of Section 314(a)(1) of the TIA first occurs to, but not including, the 60th day thereafter (or such earlier date on which the Event of Default relating to such failure shall have been cured or
waived) and will be payable in the same manner as Additional Interest. On such 60th day (or earlier, if the Event of Default relating to such failure is cured or waived prior to such 60th day) such Default Interest will cease to accrue and the Notes
will be subject to acceleration, as provided below in Section 6.02 (“Acceleration”), if the Event of Default is continuing. This provision will not affect the rights of Holders in the event of the occurrence of any other Event of
Default. 
 Section 6.02. Acceleration. 

In the case of an Event of Default specified in clause (9) or (10) of Section 6.01 hereof, with respect to the Company, any
Restricted Subsidiary of the Company that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable


  
 79 








 
immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then
outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. 
 Section 6.03. Other Remedies. 

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal, premium, if
any, and interest on the Notes or enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture. 
 The Holders of a majority in
principal amount of the then outstanding Notes will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee, subject to certain exceptions. 

The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay
or omission by the Trustee or any Holder of a Note in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies are
cumulative to the extent permitted by law. 
 Section 6.04. Waiver of Past Defaults. 

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of all Holders of
the Notes (i) waive any existing Default or Events of Default and its consequences under this Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, or interest or premium or Additional Interest, if any, on,
the Notes and (ii) rescind an acceleration and its consequences, if the rescission would not violate with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default have been cured or waived. 

Section 6.05. Control by Majority. 

Subject to certain limitations, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee
in its exercise of any trust or power. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture that the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders of Notes or that may
involve the Trustee in personal liability. 
 Section 6.06. Limitation on Suits. 

Subject to Section 7.01 (“Duties of Trustee”), in case 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 Indenture at the request or direction of any Holders of Notes unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it against any loss,
liability or expense. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, or Additional Interest, if any, when due, no Holder of a Note may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless: 

(1) such Holder has previously given the Trustee notice that an Event of Default is continuing; 

  
 80 








 (2) Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding
Notes have requested the Trustee to pursue the remedy; 
 (3) such Holders have offered the Trustee security or indemnity
reasonably satisfactory to it 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) Holders of a majority
in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period. 

A Holder of a Note may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder of a Note or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder of
a Note. 
 Section 6.07. Rights of Holders of Notes to Receive Payment. 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Note to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, and
interest on the Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Note (including in connection with an offer to purchase), or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired
or affected without the consent of such Holder; provided that a Holder shall not have the right to institute any such suit for the enforcement of payment if and to the extent that the institution or prosecution thereof or the entry of
judgment therein would, under applicable law, result in the surrender, impairment, waiver or loss of the Lien of this Indenture upon any property subject to such Lien. 

Section 6.08. Collection Suit by Trustee. 

If an Event of Default specified in Sections 6.01(1) or (2) (“Events of Default”) hereof occurs and is continuing, the Trustee
may recover judgment in its own name and, in the case of the Trustee, as Trustee of an express trust against the Company for the whole amount of principal of, premium, if any, and interest remaining unpaid on, the Notes and interest on overdue
principal and, to the extent lawful, interest 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 and its agents and
counsel. 
 Section 6.09. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 

The Trustee shall be authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have
the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and its agents and counsel) and the Holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company
(or any other obligor upon the Notes), its creditors or its property and 

  
 81 








 
shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is
hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 (“Compensation and Indemnity”) hereof. To the extent that the payment of any such
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 (“Compensation and Indemnity”) hereof out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall
be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding
whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing 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, 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 the money in the following order: 
 First:
to the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Registrar for amounts due under Section 7.07 (“Compensation and Indemnity”) hereof, including payment of all compensation, expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the
Trustee and the costs and expenses of collection; 
 Second: to Holders of Notes for amounts due and unpaid on the
Notes for principal, premium, if any, and interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for principal, premium, if any and interest, respectively; and 

Third: to the Company or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct. 

The Trustee may fix a Record Date and Interest Payment Date for any payment to Holders of Notes pursuant to this Section 6.10. 

Section 6.11. Undertaking for Costs. 

In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted
by it as a Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’
fees, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 6.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder of a Note pursuant
to Section 6.07 (“Rights of Holders of Notes to Receive Payment”) hereof, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes. 

  
 82 








 Section 6.12. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. 

No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Note to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall
impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article VI or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as
often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be. 
 ARTICLE VII. 

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

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

(1) the duties of the Trustee will be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture and the Trustee need
perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no others, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and 

(2) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the
correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture. However, the Trustee will examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not
they conform to the requirements of this Indenture. 
 (c) The Trustee may not be relieved from liabilities for its own 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 7.01; 
 (2) the Trustee will not be liable for any error of judgment made in good
faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it is proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and 

(3) the Trustee will not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a
direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.05 (“Control by Majority”) hereof. 

  
 83 








 (d) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture that in any
way relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a), (b), and (c) of this Section 7.01. 
 (e) No provision of this Indenture
will require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or incur any liability. The Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights and powers under this Indenture at the request of any Holders, unless such Holder has offered to
the Trustee security and indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense. 
 (f) The Trustee will not be liable for
interest on any money received by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the Company. Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 

(g) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless the Trustee shall have received notice of a
Default or an Event of Default in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture. 
 Section 7.02. Rights of Trustee. 

(a) The Trustee may conclusively rely upon any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper
Person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document. 
 (b) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting,
it may require an Officers’ Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both. The Trustee will not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such Officers’ Certificate or Opinion of Counsel. The Trustee
may consult with counsel and the advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel will be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance
thereon. 
 (c) The Trustee may act through its attorneys and agents and will not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any
agent appointed with due care. 
 (d) The Trustee will not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith that it believes
to be authorized or within the rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture. 
 (e) Unless otherwise specifically provided in this
Indenture, any demand, request, direction or notice from the Company will be sufficient if signed by an Officer of the Company. 
 (f) The
Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security reasonably
satisfactory to it against the losses, liabilities and expenses that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction. 

(g) The Trustee shall have no duty to inquire as to the performance of the Company with respect to the covenants contained in Article IV. 

(h) Delivery of reports, information and documents to the Trustee under Section 4.17 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 Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as
to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates). 

  
 84 








 Section 7.03. 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 Company or any
Affiliate of the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest as described under the TIA it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC
for permission to continue as Trustee (if this Indenture has been qualified under the TIA) or resign. Any Agent may do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee is also subject to Sections 7.10 (“Eligibility;
Disqualification”) and 7.11 (“Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company”) hereof. 
 Section 7.04. Trustee’s
Disclaimer. 
 The Trustee will not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or
the Notes, it shall not be accountable for the Company’s use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Company or upon the Company’s direction under any provision of this Indenture, it will not be responsible for the use or
application of any money received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee, and it will not be responsible for any statement or recital herein or any statement in the Notes or any other document in connection with the sale of the Notes or pursuant
to this Indenture other than its certificate of authentication. 
 Section 7.05. Notice of Defaults. 

If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if it is known to the Trustee, the Trustee will mail to Holders of Notes a
notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after the Trustee gains knowledge of such continuing Default or Event of Default unless such Default or Event of Default shall have been cured or waived before the giving of such notice. The
Trustee may withhold from Holders of Notes notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest, except in the case of a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal
of, or interest or premium, if any, on, the Notes. 
 Section 7.06. Reports by Trustee to Holders of the Notes. 

(a) Within 60 days after each September 15th beginning with the September 15th following the Issue Date, and for so long as Notes
remain outstanding, the Trustee will mail to the Holders of the Notes a brief report dated as of such reporting date that complies with TIA § 313(a) (but if no event described in TIA § 313(a) has occurred within the twelve months
preceding the reporting date, no report need be transmitted). The Trustee also will comply with TIA § 313(b)(2). The Trustee will also transmit by mail all reports as required by TIA § 313(c). 

(b) A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to the Holders of Notes will be mailed by the Trustee to the Company and filed by the
Trustee with the SEC and each stock exchange on which the Notes are listed in accordance with TIA § 313(d). The Company will promptly notify the Trustee in writing when the Notes are listed on any stock exchange. 

  
 85 








 Section 7.07. Compensation and Indemnity. 

(a) The Company will pay to the Trustee (in its capacity as Trustee and, to the extent it has been appointed as such, Paying Agent and
Registrar) (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from time to time reasonable compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder. The Trustee’s compensation will not be limited by any law on compensation of a
Trustee of an express trust. The Company will reimburse each Indemnified Party promptly upon request for all reasonable disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses will
include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Indemnified Party’s agents and counsel. 
 (b) The Company will
indemnify the Indemnified Party against any and all losses, liabilities or expenses incurred by it arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Indenture, including the costs and expenses of
enforcing this Indenture against the Company and the Guarantors (including this Section 7.07) and defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Company, the Guarantors, any Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection
with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, except to the extent any such loss, liability or expense may be attributable to its negligence or bad faith. The Indemnified Party will notify the Company promptly of any
claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Indemnified Party to so notify the Company will not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder. The Company will defend the claim and the Indemnified Party will cooperate in the defense.
Each Indemnified Party may have separate counsel but the Company will pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. 

(c) The obligations of the Company under this Section 7.07 will survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 

(d) To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this Section 7.07, each Indemnified Party will have a Lien prior to the Notes on
all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, in its capacity as Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal, premium, if any, and interest on particular Notes pursuant to Article VIII hereof. Such Lien will survive the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 
 (e) When an Indemnified Party incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default
specified in Section 6.01(9) or (10) (“Events of Default”) hereof occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of
administration under any Bankruptcy Law. 
 (f) The Trustee will comply with the provisions of TIA § 313(b)(2) to the extent
applicable. 

  
 86 








 Section 7.08. Replacement of Trustee. 

(a) A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee will become effective only upon the successor
Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.08. 
 (b) The Trustee may resign in writing at any time and be
discharged from the trust hereby created by so notifying the Company. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Company in writing. The Company
may remove the Trustee if: 
 (1) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10 (“Eligibility;
Disqualification”) hereof; 
 (2) the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent or an order for relief is entered with
respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law; 
 (3) a custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its
property; or 
 (4) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting. 

(c) If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Company will 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 then outstanding Notes may appoint a successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the
Company. 
 (d) If a successor Trustee does not take office within 30 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring
Trustee, the Company, or the Holders of at least 10% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 

(e) If the Trustee, after written request by any Holder who has been a Holder for at least three months, fails to comply with
Section 7.10 (“Eligibility; Disqualification”) hereof, such Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee. 

(f) A successor Trustee will deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Thereupon, the
resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee will become effective, and the successor Trustee will have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee will mail a notice of its succession to Holders.
The retiring Trustee will promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee; provided all sums owing to the retiring Trustee hereunder have been paid and subject to the Lien provided for in Section 7.07
(“Compensation and Indemnity”) hereof. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08, the Company’s obligations under Section 7.07 (“Compensation and Indemnity”) hereof will continue for
the benefit of the retiring Trustee. 

  
 87 








 Section 7.09. Successor Trustee by Merger, etc. 

If the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another
corporation, the successor corporation without any further act will be the successor Trustee. 
 Section 7.10. Eligibility; Disqualification.

 There will at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of
America or of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities and that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $100.0
million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. 
 This Indenture will always have a Trustee who satisfies the
requirements of TIA § 310(a)(1), (2) and (5). The Trustee is subject to TIA § 310(b). 
 Section 7.11. Preferential
Collection of Claims Against Company. 
 The Trustee is subject to 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. 

ARTICLE VIII. 
 LEGAL DEFEASANCE
AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE 
 Section 8.01. Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 

The Company may, at its option and at any time, elect to have either Section 8.02 (“Legal Defeasance and Discharge”) or 8.03
(“Covenant Defeasance”) hereof be applied to all outstanding Notes upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article VIII. 

Section 8.02. Legal Defeasance and Discharge. 

Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 (“Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance”) hereof
of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, the Company and each of the Guarantors will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 (“Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance”) hereof, be deemed
to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes (including the Guarantees) on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal
Defeasance means that the Company and the Guarantors will be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes (including the Guarantees), which will thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding”
only for the purposes of Section 8.05 (“Deposited Money and Government Securities to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions”) hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses (1) and
(2) below, and to have satisfied all their other obligations under such Notes, the Guarantees and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except
for the following provisions which will survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: 
 (1) the rights
of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, or interest or premium and Additional Interest, if any, on, such Notes when such payments are due from the trust referred to in Section 8.05 (“Deposited
Money and Government Securities to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions”) hereof; 

  
 88 








 (2) the Company’s obligations with respect to the Notes under Article II and
Section 4.02 (“Maintenance of Office or Agency”) concerning issuing temporary Notes, registration of Notes, mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and the maintenance of an office or agency for payment and money for security
payments held in trust; 
 (3) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee, and the Company’s and
the Guarantors’ obligations in connection therewith; and 
 (4) the Legal Defeasance provisions of this Indenture. 

Subject to compliance with this Article VIII, the Company may exercise its option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its
option under Section 8.03 (“Covenant Defeasance”) hereof. 
 Section 8.03. Covenant Defeasance. 

Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 (“Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance”) hereof of the
option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Company and each of the Guarantors will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 (“Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance”) hereof, be released from
each of their obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.07 (“Restricted Payments”), 4.08 (“Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock”), 4.09 (“Liens”), 4.10 (“Dividend and Other

Subsidiaries”), 4.16 (“Payments for Consent”), 4.17 (“Reports”), 4.18 (“Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control”), 4.19 (“Asset Sales”), clauses (a) and (c) of Section 4.20 (“Sale
and Leaseback Transactions”) and 4.21 (“Secured Indebtedness”) hereof and clause (4) of Section 5.01 (“Merger, Consolidation, or Sale of Assets”) hereof with respect to the outstanding Notes on and after the date
the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 (“Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance”) hereof are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes will thereafter be deemed not “outstanding”
for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but will continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder. For
this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes and Guarantees, the Company and the Guarantors may omit to comply with and will have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any
such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in 


  
 89 








 
any other document and such omission to comply will not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01 hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture
and such Notes and Guarantees will be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in
Section 8.04 (“Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance”) hereof, Sections 6.01(3) through 6.01(8) (“Events of Default”) hereof will not constitute Events of Default. 

Section 8.04. Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. 

In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance under either Section 8.02 (“Legal Defeasance and
Discharge”) or 8.03 (“Covenant Defeasance”) hereof: 
 (1) the Company must irrevocably deposit with the
Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination of cash in U.S. dollars and non-callable Government Securities, in amounts as will be sufficient, in the
opinion of an independent registered public accounting firm, independent investment banking firm of nationally-recognized standing or other comparable financial professional, to pay the principal of, or interest and premium, if any, and Additional
Interest, if any, on, the outstanding Notes on the Stated Maturity or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Company must specify whether the Notes are being defeased to maturity or to a particular redemption date; 

(2) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to
the Trustee confirming that: 
 (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue
Service a ruling; or 
 (B) since the Issue Date, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, 

in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel will confirm that, the Holders of the outstanding Notes 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 an election under Section 8.03 (“Covenant Defeasance”)
hereof, the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the Holders of the outstanding Notes 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; 

  
 90 








 (4) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of
such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit or the granting of Liens to secure such borrowings or any portion thereof) or insofar as Events of Default from bankruptcy or
insolvency events are concerned, at any time in the period ending on the 91st day after the day of deposit; 

(5) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any material
agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is bound, or if such breach or default would occur, which is not
waived as of, and for all purposes, on an after the date of such defeasance; 
 (6) the Company must have delivered to the
Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that after the 91st day following a deposit, the trust funds will not be subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally; 
 (7) the Company must have delivered to the Trustee an
Officers’ Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Company with the intent of preferring the Holders of the Notes over the other creditors of the Company and the Guarantors with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or
defrauding creditors of the Company, any Guarantor or others; and 
 (8) the Company must have delivered to the Trustee an
Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with. 

Section 8.05. Deposited Money and Government Securities to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. 

Subject to Section 8.06 (“Repayment to Company”) hereof, all money and non-callable Government Securities (including the
proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.04 (“Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance”)
hereof in respect of the outstanding Notes will be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company
acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the
extent required by law. 
 The Company will pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed
against the cash or non-callable Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 (“Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance”) hereof or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or
other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes. 

  
 91 








 Notwithstanding anything in this Article VIII to the contrary, the Trustee will deliver or pay to
the Company from time to time upon the request of the Company any money or non-callable Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 8.04 (“Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance”) hereof which, in the opinion of a
nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(1) (“Conditions to Legal or Covenant
Defeasance”) hereof), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 

Section 8.06. Repayment to Company. 

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium,
if any, or interest on, any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on its request or (if then held by the Company) will be discharged from
such trust; and the Holder of such Note will thereafter be permitted to look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as Trustee
thereof, will thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in the New York Times or The Wall Street
Journal, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which will not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to
the Company. 
 Section 8.07. Reinstatement. 

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any U.S. dollars or non-callable Government Securities in accordance with Sections 8.02
(“Legal Defeasance and Discharge”) or 8.03 (“Covenant Defeasance”) hereof, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such
application, then the Company’s and the Guarantors’ obligations under this Indenture and the Notes and the Guarantees will be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 (“Legal Defeasance
and Discharge”) or 8.03 (“Covenant Defeasance”) hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.02 (“Legal Defeasance and Discharge”) or 8.03
(“Covenant Defeasance”) hereof, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the Company makes any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company
will be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

 ARTICLE IX. 

AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER 

Section 9.01. Without Consent of Holders of Notes. 

Notwithstanding Section 9.02 (“With Consent of Holders of Notes”) of this Indenture, the Company, the Guarantors and the
Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture or the Notes without the consent of any Holder of Notes: 
 (1) to cure any
ambiguity, defect or inconsistency; 
 (2) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of Certificated
Notes; 
 (3) to provide for the assumption of the Company’s or any Guarantor’s obligations to Holders of Notes in
the case of a merger or consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s or such Guarantor’s assets, including the addition of any required co-issuer of the Notes; 

(4) to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of Notes or that does not adversely
affect the legal rights under this Indenture of any such Holder; 
 (5) to provide for the issuance of Exchange Notes and
related Subsidiary Guarantees or Additional Notes and related Subsidiary Guarantees in accordance with the provisions set forth in this Indenture or the Registration Rights Agreement; 

(6) to comply with requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA.

 (7) to add any Restricted Subsidiary as an additional Guarantor as provided in this Indenture or to evidence the
succession of another Person to the Company, any Guarantor or any other obligor until the Notes pursuant to this Indenture, and the assumption by any such successor of the covenants and agreements of the Company, such Guarantor or such obligor
contained in this Indenture, the Notes and in any Subsidiary Guarantee of such Guarantor, including the addition of any required co-issuer of the Notes; 

(8) to release a Guarantor from its obligations under this Indenture and its Subsidiary Guarantee pursuant to this Indenture;

 (9) to provide for the acceptance of appointment of a successor Trustee as provided in this Indenture; 

(10) to add to the covenants of the Company, any Guarantor or any other obligor under the Notes for the benefit of the Holders

 93 








 (11) to comply with the rules of any applicable securities depositary; and 

(12) to conform the text of this Indenture, the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantees to any provision of the “Description of
Notes” included in the Offering Memorandum to the extent that such provision in the “Description of Notes” included in the Offering Memorandum contains text or provisions that are intended to be set forth verbatim in this Indenture,
the Notes or Subsidiary Guarantees. 
 Upon the request of the Company accompanied by a resolution of its Board of Directors authorizing the
execution of any such amended or supplemental Indenture, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02(b) (“Rights of Trustee”) hereof, the Trustee will join with the Company and, other than with respect
to any supplemental indenture entered into pursuant to Section 4.14 (“Additional Subsidiary Guarantees”), the Guarantors in the execution of any amended or supplemental Indenture authorized or permitted by the terms of this Indenture
and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee will not be obligated to enter into such amended or supplemental Indenture that affects its own rights, duties or immunities under this
Indenture or otherwise. 
 Section 9.02. With Consent of Holders of Notes. 

Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, this Indenture, the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantees may be amended or supplemented with
the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes), and any
existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with any provision of this Indenture, the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantees may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes
(including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes). Sections 2.08 (“Outstanding Notes”) and Section 2.09 (“Treasury Notes”) hereof shall
determine which Notes are considered to be “outstanding” for purposes of this Section 9.02. 
 Without the consent of each
Holder affected, an amendment, supplement or wavier may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder): 

(1) reduce the percentage in principal amount of such outstanding Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement
or waiver; 
 (2) reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any Note or alter any of the provisions with
respect to the redemption of the Notes (other than the provisions described above under Sections 3.07 (“Optional Redemption”), 4.18 (“Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control”) and 4.19 (“Asset Sales”); 

(3) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest on any Note; 

(4) waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, or interest or premium, if any, or Additional Interest,
if any, on, the Notes (except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes and a waiver of the Payment Default that resulted from such acceleration); 


  
 94 








 (5) make any Note payable in currency other than that stated in the Notes; 

(6) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights of Holders of Notes
to receive payments of principal of, or interest or premium or Additional Interest, if any, on, the Notes; 
 (7) waive a
redemption payment with respect to any Note (other than a payment required by Sections 3.07 (“Optional Redemption”), 4.18 (“Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control”) and 4.19 (“Asset Sales”) hereof); 

(8) make any change in the raking or priority of any Note that would adversely affect the Holder of such Note; 

(9) release any Guarantor from any of its obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee or this Indenture, except in accordance
with the terms of this Indenture; or 
 (10) make any change in the preceding amendment and waiver provisions. 

The consent of the Holders is not necessary under this Indenture to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment. It is sufficient if
such consent approves the substance of the proposed amendment. 
 Section 9.03. Compliance with TIA. 

Every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Notes will be set forth in an amended or supplemental Indenture that complies with the
TIA as then in effect. 
 Section 9.04. Revocation and Effect of Consents. 

Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a
Note 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. However, any such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder of a
Note may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms
and thereafter binds every Holder. 
 The Company 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. If a Record Date is fixed, then notwithstanding the provisions 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 consent to such amendment or waiver or to revoke any consent previously given, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such Record Date. 

  
 95 








 Section 9.05. Notation on or Exchange of Notes. 

The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Company in
exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver. 

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

 Section 9.06. Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc. 

The Trustee will sign any amended or supplemental Indenture authorized pursuant to this Article IX if the amendment or supplement does not
adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. The Company may not sign an amended or supplemental Indenture until the Board of Directors of the Company approves it. In executing any amended or supplemental Indenture,
the Trustee will be entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.01 (“Duties of Trustee”) hereof) will be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 12.04 (“Certificate and Opinion as
to Conditions Precedent”) hereof, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental Indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. 

ARTICLE X. 
 SATISFACTION AND
DISCHARGE 
 Section 10.01. Satisfaction and Discharge. 

This Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect as to all Notes issued thereunder, when: 

(1) either: 

(A) all such Notes theretofore authenticated and delivered, except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes that have been replaced or
paid and Notes for whose payment money has been deposited in trust and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust as provided in this Indenture, have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or 

(B) all Notes that have not been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable or will become due and
payable by reason of the mailing of a notice of redemption or otherwise and, the Company or any Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders, cash in
U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination of cash in U.S. dollars and non-callable Government Securities, in such amounts as will be sufficient, without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the
entire Indebtedness on such Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium, if any, and Additional Interest, if any, and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption; 

  
 96 








 (2) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of
the deposit or will occur immediately after giving effect to the deposit and the deposit will not result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any other material instrument to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by
which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound; 
 (3) the Company or any Guarantor has paid or caused to be paid all
sums payable by it under this Indenture; and 
 (4) the Company has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee under
this Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at maturity or on the redemption date, as the case may be. 
 In
addition, the Company must deliver an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied. 

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money has been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause
(1)(b) of this Section 10.01, the provisions of Sections 10.02 (“Application of Trust Money”) and 8.06 (“Repayment to Company”) hereof will survive. In addition, nothing in this Section 10.01 will be deemed to
discharge those provisions of Section 7.07 (“Compensation and Indemnity”) hereof, that, by their terms, survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 

Section 10.02. Application of Trust Money. 

Subject to the provisions of Section 8.05 (“Deposited Money and Government Securities to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous
Provisions”) hereof, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 10.01 (“Satisfaction and Discharge”) hereof shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this
Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest for
whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee; but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Government Securities in accordance with Section 10.01
(“Satisfaction and Discharge”) hereof 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 Company’s and
any Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 10.01 (“Satisfaction and Discharge”) hereof; provided that if the Company
has made any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or
Government Securities held by the Trustee or Paying Agent. 

  
 97 








 ARTICLE XI. 

GUARANTEES 
 Section 11.01. Guarantee.

 (a) Subject to this Article XI, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally guarantees 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 Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Company hereunder or thereunder, that: 

(1) the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, the Notes will be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity,
by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Company to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder will be promptly paid in
full, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and 
 (2) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal
of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same will be promptly paid in full when due, in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. 

Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors will be jointly and severally obligated to pay the
same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection. 
 (b) The Guarantors hereby
agree that their obligations hereunder are unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with
respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. Each
Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest, notice and all demands
whatsoever and covenant that this Subsidiary Guarantee will not be discharged except by complete payment of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture. 

(c) If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee,
liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Company or the Guarantors, any amount paid by either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Subsidiary Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, will be reinstated in full
force and effect. 

  
 98 








 (d) Each Guarantor agrees that it will not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to
the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other
hand, (1) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article VI hereof for the purposes of this Subsidiary Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such
acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (2) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article VI hereof, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) will forthwith become
due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Subsidiary Guarantee. The Guarantors will have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders
under the Subsidiary Guarantee. 
 Section 11.02. Limitation on Guarantor Liability. 

Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Subsidiary
Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to
any Subsidiary Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor will be limited to the maximum amount that will, after giving effect to such
maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of each such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any
other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article XI, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. 

Section 11.03. Execution and Delivery of Subsidiary Guarantee. 

To evidence its Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in Section 11.01 hereof, on the Issue Date each initial Guarantor hereby shall be required
to have a notation of such Subsidiary Guarantee substantially in the form attached as Exhibit D hereto endorsed by an Officer of such Guarantor (by manual or facsimile signature) on each Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and that this
Indenture will be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by one of its Officers. 
 Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee
set forth in Section 11.01 hereof will remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Subsidiary Guarantee. 

If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture or on the Subsidiary Guarantee no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee
authenticates the Note on which a Subsidiary Guarantee is endorsed, the Subsidiary Guarantee will be valid nevertheless. 
 The delivery of
any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, will constitute due delivery of the Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors. 

  
 99 








 Subsequent to the date of this Indenture, in the event a Restricted Subsidiary is required by
Section 4.14 (“Additional Subsidiary Guarantees”) to guarantee the Company’s obligations under the Notes and this Indenture, the Company will cause such Restricted Subsidiary to comply with the provisions of Section 4.14
(“Additional Subsidiary Guarantees”) hereof and this Article XI, to the extent applicable. 
 Section 11.04. Guarantors May Consolidate,
etc., on Certain Terms. 
 Except as otherwise provided in Section 11.05 (“Releases”) hereof, if the Subsidiary Guarantee
of a Guarantor has not been released, such Guarantor may not sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets to, or consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the transferee, resulting or surviving
Person), another Person, other than the Company or another Guarantor, unless: 
 (1) immediately after giving effect to that
transaction, no Default exists; and 
 (2) either: 

(A) the Person acquiring the property in any such sale or disposition or the Person formed by or surviving any such
consolidation or merger (if other than the Company or another Guarantor) assumes all the obligations of that Guarantor under this Indenture, its Subsidiary Guarantee and the Registration Rights Agreement, pursuant to a supplemental Indenture
satisfactory to the Trustee and an amendment to the Registration Rights Agreement; or 
 (B) the Net Proceeds of such sale or
other disposition are applied in accordance with Section 4.19 (“Asset Sales”). 
 provided, however, that the transfer, sale or
other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of, directly or indirectly, the Guarantors as a whole will be governed by Article V and may be subject to Section 4.18 (“Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control”).

 In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance and upon the assumption by the successor Person, by supplemental
Indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory in form to the Trustee, of the Subsidiary Guarantee endorsed upon the Notes and the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this Indenture to be
performed by the Guarantor, such successor Person will succeed to and be substituted for the Guarantor with the same effect as if it had been named herein as a Guarantor. Such successor Person thereupon may cause to be signed any or all of the
Subsidiary Guarantees to be endorsed upon all of the Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee. All the Subsidiary Guarantees so issued will in all respects have the same legal
rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Subsidiary Guarantees theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Subsidiary Guarantees had been issued at the date of the execution hereof. 

Notwithstanding clauses (1) and (2) of this Section 11.04, any Guarantor may merge with another Subsidiary that has no
significant assets or liabilities and was incorporated solely for the purpose of reincorporating that Guarantor in another U.S. jurisdiction so long as the amount of the Company’s Indebtedness and the Indebtedness of the Restricted Subsidiaries
is not increased as a result of the merger. 

  
 100 








 Section 11.05. Releases. 

The Subsidiary Guarantee of a Guarantor will be released: 

(1) in connection with any sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of that Guarantor (including by
way of merger or consolidation) to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, if the sale or other disposition complies with Section 4.19 (“Asset Sales”)
hereof; 
 (2) in connection with any sale or other disposition of such amount of Capital Stock as would result in such
Guarantor no longer being a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, if the sale or other disposition complies with
Section 4.19 (“Asset Sales”); 
 (3) if the Company designates any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Guarantor
as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with Section 4.15 (“Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries”) hereof; 

(4) if the guarantee by a Guarantor of all other Indebtedness of the Company or any other Guarantor is released, terminated or

Registrar and its successors hereunder, and the Holders, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

6.125% Senior Notes due 2022 

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

(1) INTEREST. Pioneer Energy Services Corp., a Texas corporation (the
“Company”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at a rate of 6.125% per annum, from the date hereof until maturity [and shall pay Additional Interest, if any, as provided in the Registration Rights Agreement
– the preceding clause not to be included in the Exchange Notes]. The Company will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next
succeeding Business Day, provided that no interest shall accrue on such payment for the intervening period. Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent Interest Payment Date or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance;
provided that if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated between a Record Date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such
next succeeding Interest Payment Date. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. In addition, the Company may pay Default Interest as provided for in Section 6.01 (“Events of
Default”) of the Indenture. All references to “interest” in this Note and the Indenture mean the initial interest rate borne by the Notes, any Overdue Interest that accrues as described under Section 2.12 (“Overdue Interest;
Default Interest; Additional Interest”) of the Indenture and Default Interest [and Additional Interest – the preceding clause not to be included in the Exchange Notes] (unless the Indenture states otherwise). 

[This Exchange Note was issued in connection with the Exchange Offer pursuant to which the 6.125% Senior Notes due 2022 in like
principal amount were exchanged for Exchange Notes. The Exchange Notes rank pari passu in right of payment with the Initial Notes. For any period in which the Initial Note exchanged for this Exchange Note was outstanding, Additional Interest may be
due and owing on the Initial Note in connection with the Registration Rights Agreement. – to be inserted in the Exchange Notes] 

(2) METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Company will pay interest on the
Notes to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on March 1 or September 1 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such Record Date and on or before such Interest
Payment Date (except as provided in Section 2.12 (“Overdue Interest; Default Interest; Additional Interest”) of the Indenture with respect to Overdue Interest and in Section 6.01 (“Events of Default’) of the Indenture
with respect to Default Interest [and Additional Interest – not to be included in Exchange Notes]). [The Company shall pay all Additional Interest, if any, on the dates and in the amounts set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement.
– not to be inserted in the Exchange Notes] The Notes will be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and interest at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose, or, at the option of the Company, payment of
interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders

of, and interest and premium, if any, on, all Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which will have provided wire transfer instructions to the Company or the Paying Agent and (2) such payment by check may only be paid so long as no

 (3) PAYING
AGENT AND REGISTRAR. Initially, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may change any Paying Agent
or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity; provided no Event of Default is continuing. 

(4) INDENTURE[; REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT – not to be
inserted in Exchange Notes]. The Company issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of March 18, 2014 (the “Indenture”) among the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the
Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of such terms. To the extent
any provision of this Note conflicts with the Indenture, the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of Notes that may be issued thereunder. [Holders are entitled to the benefits of the
Registration Rights Agreement – not to be inserted in Exchange Notes.] 
 (5)
RANKING. The Notes will constitute senior unsecured obligations of the Company.

 (9)
NOTICE OF REDEMPTION. Notice of redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its
registered address, except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction or discharge of the Indenture. Notes in
denominations larger than $2,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are to be redeemed. 

(10) DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE. The Notes are in
registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require
a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Company may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Company need not exchange or register the
transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, the Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a
selection of Notes to be redeemed or during the period between a Record Date and the corresponding Interest Payment Date. 

  
 A-6 








 (11) PERSONS DEEMED
OWNERS. The registered Holder of a Note will be treated as its owner for all purposes. Only registered Holders have rights under the Indenture and this Note. 

(12) AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER.
Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture, the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantees may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes and any existing
Default or Event or Default or compliance with any provision of the Indenture, the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantees may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes. Without
the consent of any Holder of a Note, the Indenture, the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantees may be amended or supplemented to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency and to effect certain other changes as set forth in the Indenture. 

(13) DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES. If any Event of Default occurs
and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default
arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject
to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of any continuing
Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest or premium, if any,) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, rescind an acceleration or waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under the Indenture except a continuing
Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest or premium, if any, on, or the principal of, the Notes. The Company is required to deliver to the Trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with the Indenture, and the Company is
required, upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default or Event of Default. 

(14) TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH COMPANY. The
Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Company or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee. 

(15) NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. No director,
officer, employee, manager, incorporator, member, partner or stockholder or other owner of Equity Interests of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of the Company or the Guarantors under the
Notes, the Indenture, the Subsidiary Guarantees, the Registration Rights Agreement or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of a Note by accepting the Note waives and releases all
such liability. The waiver and release are part of the 

  
 A-7 








 
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 waiver is against public
policy.

manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent.

 The undersigned represents and warrants to you that: 

1. We are an institutional “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)) purchasing for our own account or for the account of such an institutional “accredited investor” at least $250,000 principal amount of the Securities, and we are

the economic risk of our or its investment. 
 2. We understand that the Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act

Termination Date. If any resale or other transfer of the Securities is proposed to be made pursuant to clause (e) above prior to the Resale Restriction Termination Date, the transferor shall deliver a letter from the transferee substantially in
