all of the Transfer Restricted Securities for Exchange Securities and use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Exchange Offer Registration Statement to be declared effective on or prior to the Effectiveness Target Date; have

The Issuers shall commence the Exchange Offer by mailing the related exchange offer Prospectus and accompanying documents to
each Holder stating, in addition to such other disclosures as are required by applicable law: 
 (i) that the Exchange Offer
is being made pursuant to this Registration Rights Agreement and that all Transfer Restricted Securities validly tendered will be accepted for exchange;

mailed) (the “Exchange Dates”); 
 (iii) that any Transfer Restricted Security not tendered by a Holder who
was eligible to participate in the Exchange Offer will remain outstanding and continue to accrue interest, but will not retain any rights under this Registration Rights Agreement; 

(iv) that Holders electing to have a Transfer Restricted Security exchanged pursuant to the Exchange Offer will be required to
surrender such Transfer Restricted Security, together with the enclosed letters of transmittal, to the institution and at the address (located in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York) specified in the notice prior to the close of business
on the last Exchange Date; and

to the Exchange Offer; and 
 (ii) deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Trustee for cancellation all Transfer Restricted
Securities or portions thereof so accepted for exchange by the Issuers and issue, and cause the Trustee to promptly authenticate and mail to each Holder, an Exchange Security equal in principal amount to the principal amount of the Transfer
Restricted Securities surrendered by such Holder; provided, that in the case of any Transfer Restricted Securities held in global form by a depositary, authentication and delivery to such depositary of one or more Exchange Securities in global form
in an equivalent principal amount thereto for the account of such Holders in accordance with the Indenture shall satisfy such authentication and delivery requirement. 

Interest on each Exchange Note issued pursuant to the Exchange Offer will accrue from the last interest payment date on which
interest was paid on the Note surrendered in exchange therefor or, if no interest has been paid on the such Note, from the Closing Date. 

Each Holder (including, without limitation, each Participating Broker-Dealer (as defined below) who participates in the
Exchange Offer will be required to represent to the Issuers, in writing (which may be contained in the applicable letter of transmittal) that: (i) any Exchange Securities acquired in exchange for Transfer Restricted Securities tendered are
being acquired in the ordinary course of business of the Person receiving such Exchange Securities, whether or not such recipient is a Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities, (ii) at the time of the commencement of the Exchange Offer, neither
such Holder nor, to the actual knowledge of such Holder, any other Person receiving Exchange Securities from such Holder has an arrangement or understanding with any Person to participate in the distribution (within the meaning of the 1933 Act) of
the Exchange Securities in violation of the provisions of the 1933 Act, (iii) the Holder is not an Affiliate of any Issuer or if it is an Affiliate, such Holder will comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the 1933
Act to the extent applicable, (iv) if such Holder is not a Participating Broker-Dealer, that it has not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in, the distribution of Exchange Securities, and (v) if such Holder is a Participating
Broker-Dealer, such Holder acquired the Transfer Restricted Securities as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, that the Transfer Restricted Securities do not represent an unsold allotment from the original sale of the
Transfer Restricted Securities and that it will comply with the applicable provisions of the 1933 Act with respect to resale of any Exchange Securities. 

  
 -7- 









 The Issuers shall comply with the applicable requirements of the 1933 Act, the
1934 Act and other applicable laws and regulations in connection with the Exchange Offer. The Exchange Offer shall not be subject to any conditions, other than (i) that the Exchange Offer does not violate applicable law or any applicable
interpretation of the staff of the SEC, (ii) no action or proceeding shall have been instituted or threatened in any court or by any governmental agency with respect to the Exchange Offer and no material adverse development shall have occurred
with respect to the Issuers, (iii) all governmental approvals shall have been obtained, which approvals the Issuers deem necessary for the consummation of the Exchange Offer, (iv) the conditions precedent to the obligations of the Issuers
under this Agreement shall have been fulfilled and (v) such other conditions as shall be deemed necessary or appropriate by the Issuers in their reasonable judgment. 

(b) In the event that (i) the Issuers determine that the Exchange Offer Registration provided for in Section 2(a)
above is not available or may not be consummated as soon as practicable after the last Exchange Date because it would violate applicable law or the applicable interpretations of the Staff of the SEC, (ii) the Exchange Offer is not for any other
reason consummated by the 365th day after the Closing Date, (iii) an Initial Purchaser (x) notifies the Issuers in writing on or before the 60th day after the consummation of the Exchange Offer that the Transfer Restricted Securities held
by it were not eligible to be exchanged for Exchange Securities under the Exchange Offer, or (y) is or may be deemed to be an Affiliate of the Issuers and intends to make a market in the Exchange Securities, as part of its business in the
ordinary course (an “Affiliated Market Maker”), or (iv) if any Holder is not entitled to participate in the Exchange Offer (as a result of being prohibited by law, SEC policy or otherwise) or is not able to resell the Exchange
Securities acquired by such Holder in the Exchange Offer without delivering a prospectus in connection with such resale and so requests in writing on or prior to the 60th day after the consummation of the Exchange Offer, the Issuers shall, in each
case, cause to be filed as soon as practicable after such event and shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to have a Shelf Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC by the Effectiveness Target Date; provided that (A) any
Holder known to the Issuers who is not entitled to participate in the Exchange Offer because such Holder is an Affiliate of an Issuer, or (B) any Affiliated Market Maker known to the Issuers, shall in each case automatically be deemed to have
requested on the date hereof that the Issuers cause to be filed a Shelf Registration Statement. 
 In the event the Issuers
are required to file a Shelf Registration Statement solely as a result of the matters referred to in clauses (iii) or (iv) of the preceding sentence, the Issuers shall file and use their commercially reasonable efforts to have declared
effective (unless it becomes effective automatically upon filing) by the SEC both an Exchange Offer Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2(a) with respect to all Transfer Restricted Securities and a Shelf Registration Statement (which may
be a combined 

  
 -8- 









 
Registration Statement with the Exchange Offer Registration Statement) with respect to offers and sales of Transfer Restricted Securities held by such other Holders (or, in the case of an
Affiliated Market Maker, with respect to offers and sales of Exchange Securities held by it) after completion of the Exchange Offer. 

The Issuers agree to use their commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective
until the later of (x) the earliest of (i) the date that the Transfer Restricted Securities are permitted to be sold pursuant to Rule 144 (or any successor rule that permits the Transfer Restricted Securities to be eligible for resale
without registration and without being subject to volume restrictions or public information requirements, but not Rule 144A) without any limitations under clauses (c), (e), (f) and (h) thereof, (ii) the date that is two years from the
Closing Date, and (iii) the date on which all Transfer Restricted Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement have been sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, and (y) if there is an Affiliated Market Maker, the date
such Affiliated Market Marker ceases to be an Affiliate of the Issuers (with such determination based upon a written opinion of outside counsel of national standing). The Issuers further agree to supplement or amend the Shelf Registration Statement
if required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by the Issuers for such Shelf Registration Statement or by the 1933 Act or by any other rules and regulations thereunder for shelf registration or if
reasonably requested by a Holder or Affiliated Market Maker with respect to information relating to such Holder or Affiliated Market Maker, and to use their best efforts to cause any such amendment to become effective and such Shelf Registration
Statement to become usable as soon as thereafter practicable. The Issuers agree to furnish to the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities and any Affiliated Market Maker copies of any such supplement or amendment promptly after its being used or
filed with the SEC. 
 (c) The Issuers shall pay all Registration Expenses in connection with the registration pursuant to
Section 2(a) or Section 2(b). Each Holder shall pay all underwriting discounts and commissions and transfer taxes, if any, relating to the registration of such Holder’s Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement or the Shelf Registration Statement, and any Affiliated Market Maker shall pay all transfer taxes, if any, relating to the registration of such Affiliated Market Maker’s Exchange Securities pursuant to an Affiliated
Market Making Registration Statement. 
 (d) An Exchange Offer Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof or
a Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2(b) hereof will not be deemed to have become effective unless it has been declared effective by the SEC; provided, however, that, if, after it has been declared effective, the offering of
Transfer Restricted Securities or the offering of Exchange Securities by any Affiliated Market Maker, pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement is interfered with by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the SEC or any other
governmental agency or court, such Registration Statement will be deemed not to have become effective during the period of such interference until the offering of Transfer Restricted Securities or Exchange Securities by an Affiliated Market Maker,
as the case may be, pursuant to such Registration Statement may legally resume. 

  
 -9- 









 (e) As provided for in the Indenture, in the case of the events set forth in
clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) below (each a “Registration Default”), the annual interest rate on the Securities will be increased (the “Additional Interest”): 

(i) if an Exchange Offer Registration Statement or a Shelf Registration Statement is not declared effective by the SEC on or
prior to the Effectiveness Target Date; 
 (ii) if the Note Issuer and the Guarantors have failed to consummate the Exchange
Offer within 30 Business Days of the Effectiveness Target Date with respect to the Exchange Offer Registration Statement; or 

(iii) if an Exchange Offer Registration Statement or a Shelf Registration Statement has been declared effective and such
Exchange Offer Registration Statement or Shelf Registration Statement ceases to be effective or useable at any time thereafter (unless all Securities have been validly exchanged or disposed of thereunder). 

Additional Interest shall accrue on the principal amount of the Transfer Restricted Securities at a rate of 0.25% per
annum for the first 90 days from and including the date on which any Registration Default occurs, and such Additional Interest rate shall increase by an additional 0.25% per annum at the beginning of each subsequent 90-day period (it being
understood and agreed that, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, so long as any Securities not registered under an Exchange Offer Registration Statement are then covered by an effective Shelf Registration, no Additional Interest shall
accrue on such Securities); provided, however, that the Additional Interest rate on the Securities may not exceed in the aggregate 1.0% per annum; provided, further, however, that in no event shall the Issuers be obligated to pay Additional
Interest under more than one of the Registration Defaults at any one time; provided, further, however, that in the case of Registration Defaults with respect to a Shelf Registration Statement under clauses (i) or (iii) above, it is
expressly understood that Additional Interest should be payable only with respect to the Transfer Restricted Securities so requested to be registered if pursuant to Sections 2(b)(iii) or (iv) hereof. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, any Additional Interest payable under this Agreement shall cease to accrue on and
after the earlier of (i) the date on which all Registration Defaults have been cured and (i) the date that is two years from the Closing Date (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not, however, affect the Issuers’ obligations
hereunder to pay Additional Interest that has accrued to such date and that remains unpaid). 

  
 -10- 









 Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Additional Interest shall be payable with
respect to any Registration Default of an Affiliated Market Making Registration Statement. 
 (f) Without limiting the
remedies available to the Holders or any Affiliated Market Maker, the Issuers acknowledge that any failure by the Issuers to comply with their obligations under Section 2(a) and Section 2(b) hereof may result in material irreparable injury
to the Holders or any Affiliated Market Maker for which there is no adequate remedy at law, that it will not be possible to measure damages for such injuries precisely and that, in the event of any such failure, any Holder or any Affiliated Market
Maker may obtain such relief as may be required to specifically enforce the obligations of the Issuers under Section 2(a) and Section 2(b) hereof. 

(g) No Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities may include any of its Transfer Restricted Securities, and no Affiliated Market
Maker may include any Exchange Securities, in any Shelf Registration unless and until such Holder or Affiliated Market Maker furnishes to the Issuers, in writing within 30 days after receipt of a request therefor, the information with respect to
such Holder or Affiliated Market Maker specified in Items 507 and 508 (as applicable) of Regulation S-K under the 1933 Act and any other applicable rules, regulations or policies of the SEC for use in connection with any Shelf Registration or
Prospectus included therein, on a form to be provided by the Issuers. No Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities shall be entitled to Additional Interest pursuant to Section 2(e) hereof unless and until such Holder shall have provided all such
information. Each selling Holder and any Affiliated Market Maker agrees to furnish promptly to the Issuers additional information to be disclosed so that the information previously furnished to the Issuers by such Holder or Affiliated Market Maker
does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. 

(h) Additional Interest shall not accrue with respect to an event listed in Sections 2(e)(i) or (iii) hereof but only with
respect to a Shelf Registration Statement (each, a “Shelf Effectiveness Registration Default”) if (i) such Shelf Effectiveness Registration Default under Section 2(e)(iii) hereof occurs because of the filing of a
post-effective amendment to a Shelf Registration Statement to incorporate annual audited financial information with respect to the Issuers where such post-effective amendment is not yet effective and needs to be declared effective to permit Holders
to use the related Prospectus, (ii) such Shelf Effectiveness Registration Default occurs in respect of a Shelf Registration because of the occurrence of other material events or developments with respect to the Issuers that would need to be
described in such Registration Statement or the related Prospectus, and the effectiveness of such Registration Statement is reasonably required to be suspended while such Registration Statement and related Prospectus are amended or supplemented to
reflect such events or developments, (iii) such Shelf Effectiveness Registration Default in respect of a Shelf Registration results from the suspension of the effectiveness of such Registration Statement because of the existence of material
events or developments with respect to the Issuers or any of their respective 

  
 -11- 









 
Affiliates, the disclosure of which the Issuers determine in good faith would have a material adverse effect on the business, operations or prospects of the Issuers, or (iv) such Shelf
Effectiveness Registration Default in respect of a Shelf Registration results from the suspension of the effectiveness of such Registration Statement because the Issuers do not wish to disclose publicly a pending material business transaction that
has not yet been publicly disclosed. 
 (i) Additional Interest due on the Securities pursuant to Section 2(e) hereof
will be payable in cash semiannually in arrears on the same interest payment dates as the Securities, commencing with the first interest payment date occurring after any such Additional Interest commences to accrue. 

(j) The Issuers shall notify the Trustee in writing within one Business Day after each and every date on which (i) an
event occurs in respect of which Additional Interest is required to be paid and (ii) an event occurs in respect of which Additional Interest ceases to be required to be paid.

purpose, of the issuance by the SEC or any state securities authority of a notification of objection to the use of the form on which the Shelf Registration Statement has been filed, and of the happening of any event that causes the Company to become
an “ineligible issuer,” as defined in SEC Rule 405, (iv) if, between the effective date of a Registration Statement and the closing of any sale of Transfer Restricted Securities covered thereby, the representations and warranties of
the Issuers contained in any underwriting agreement, securities sales agreement or other similar agreement, if any, relating to the offering

Exchange Securities, as applicable, for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation of any proceeding for such purpose, (v) of the happening of any event during the period a Shelf Registration Statement is effective which makes any statement
made in such Registration Statement or the related Prospectus untrue in any material respect or which requires the making of any changes in such Registration Statement or Prospectus in order to make the statements therein not misleading and
(vi) of any determination by the Issuers that a post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement would be appropriate except, in the case of clauses (iv), (v) and (vi), with respect to any event, development or transaction permitted to

(h) in the case of a Shelf Registration, cooperate with the selling Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities or any Affiliated
Market Maker to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Transfer Restricted Securities or Exchange Securities to be sold and not bearing any restrictive legends and enable such Transfer Restricted Securities or

any sale of Transfer Restricted Securities; 
 (i) in the case of a Shelf Registration, upon the occurrence of any event
contemplated by Section 3(e)(v) hereof, as promptly as practicable prepare and file with the SEC a supplement or post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement or the related Prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference or

any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference if (i) an event occurs and is continuing as a result of which the Shelf Registration, any related Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated
therein by reference, would, in the Issuers’ good faith judgment, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading (with respect to such a
Prospectus only, in light of the circumstances under which they were made), and (ii) (a) the Company determines in its good faith judgment that the disclosure of such event at such time would have a material adverse effect on the business,
operations or prospects of the Issuers, or (b) the disclosure otherwise relates to a pending material business transaction that has not yet been publicly disclosed; provided, however, that the Issuers may only suspend the offering and sale of
Exchange Securities under an Affiliated Market Making Registration Statement pursuant to this clause (i) for a period or periods not in excess of 60 consecutive days or more than three (3) times during any calendar year during which such
Affiliated Market Making Registration Statement is required to be effective and usable hereunder (measured from the effective time of such Affiliated Market Making Registration Statement to successive anniversaries thereof);

document which is to be incorporated by reference into a Registration Statement or a Prospectus, of which the Holders, any Affiliated Market Maker and their respective counsel shall not have previously been advised and furnished a copy or to which
the Holders, any Affiliated Market Maker or their respective counsel shall reasonably object on a timely basis, except for any Registration Statement or amendment thereto or related Prospectus or supplement thereto (a copy of which has been

Trustee to execute, all documents as may be required to effect such changes and all other forms and documents required to be filed with the SEC to enable the Indenture to be so qualified in a timely manner; 

(m) in the case of a Shelf Registration, make available for inspection upon written request by a representative of the Holders

and in such connection, (i) to the extent possible, make such representations and warranties to the Holders and any Underwriters of such Transfer Restricted Securities with respect to the business of the Issuers and their respective

letters from the independent certified public accountants of the Issuers (and, if necessary, any other certified public accountant of any subsidiary of the Company, or of any business acquired by any of the Issuers for which financial statements and

ending on the 180th day following the Effective Date of the Shelf Registration Statement (as such period may be extended pursuant to the penultimate paragraph of Section 3 of this Agreement). 

  
 -17- 









 In the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, the Company may require each
Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities and any Affiliated Market Maker to furnish to the Company such information regarding the Holder or Affiliated Market Maker and the proposed distribution by such Holder of such Transfer Restricted Securities
or the proposed offer and sale by such Affiliated Market Maker of such Exchange Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably request in writing. The Company may exclude from such registration the Transfer Restricted Securities or
Exchange Securities of any seller so long as such seller fails to furnish such information within a reasonable time after receiving such request. Each seller as to which any Shelf Registration is being effected agrees to furnish promptly to the
Company all information required to be disclosed in order to make the information previously furnished to the Company by such seller not materially misleading. 

In the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, each Holder and any Affiliated Market Maker agrees that, upon receipt of any
notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(e)(v) hereof, such Holder or Affiliated Market Maker will forthwith discontinue disposition of Transfer Restricted Securities or Exchange Securities
pursuant to a Registration Statement until such Holder’s or Affiliated Market Maker’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 3(i) hereof, and, if so directed by the Company, such Holder
or Affiliated Market Maker will deliver to the Company (at its expense) all copies in its possession, other than permanent file copies then in such Holder’s or Affiliated Market Maker’s possession, of the Prospectus covering such Transfer
Restricted Securities or Exchange Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice. If the Company shall give any such notice to suspend the disposition of Transfer Restricted Securities or Exchange Securities pursuant to a Registration
Statement, the Company shall extend the period during which the Registration Statement shall be maintained effective pursuant to this Agreement by the number of days during the period from and including the date of the giving of such notice to and
including the date when the Holders and any Affiliated Market Maker shall have received copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus necessary to resume such dispositions. 

The Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities covered by a Shelf Registration Statement who desire to do so may sell such
Transfer Restricted Securities in an Underwritten Offering. In any such Underwritten Offering, the investment banker or investment bankers and manager or managers (the “Underwriters”) that will administer the offering will be
selected by the Majority Holders. 
  

	 	4.	Participation of Broker-Dealers in Exchange Offer. 

 (a) The Staff of the
SEC has taken the position that any broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its own account in the Exchange Offer in exchange for Securities 

  
 -18- 









 
that were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making or other trading activities (a “Participating Broker-Dealer”), may be deemed to be an
“underwriter” within the meaning of the 1933 Act and must deliver a prospectus meeting the requirements of the 1933 Act in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. 

The Issuers understand that, other than the case of a Participating Broker-Dealer which is an Affiliated Market Maker, it is
the Staff’s position that if the Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement includes a plan of distribution containing a statement to the above effect and the means by which Participating Broker-Dealers may resell the
Exchange Securities, without naming the Participating Broker-Dealers or specifying the amount of Exchange Securities owned by them, such Prospectus may be delivered by Participating Broker-Dealers to satisfy their prospectus delivery obligation
under the 1933 Act in connection with resales of Exchange Securities for their own accounts, so long as the Prospectus otherwise meets the requirements of the 1933 Act. 

(b) In light of the above, notwithstanding the other provisions of this Agreement, the Issuers agree that the provisions of
this Agreement as they relate to a Shelf Registration shall also apply to an Exchange Offer Registration to the extent, and with such reasonable modifications thereto as may be, reasonably requested by one or more Participating Broker-Dealers which
is not an Affiliated Market Maker (or other Holders, if any, with similar prospectus delivery obligations under the 1933 Act) as provided in clause (ii) below, in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of any Exchange Securities by
such Participating Broker-Dealers which is not an Affiliated Market Maker (or other Holder with a similar prospectus delivery obligation) consistent with the positions of the Staff recited in Section 4(a) above; provided that: 

(i) the Issuers shall not be required to amend or supplement the Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration
Statement, as would otherwise be contemplated by Section 3(i), for a period exceeding 180 days after the Effectiveness Date of such Exchange Offer Registration Statement (as such period may be extended pursuant to the penultimate paragraph of
Section 3 of this Agreement) and Participating Broker-Dealers (or other Holders with a similar prospectus delivery obligation) shall not be authorized by the Issuers to deliver and shall not deliver such Prospectus after such period in
connection with the resales contemplated by this Section 4; and 
 (ii) the application of the Shelf Registration
procedures set forth in Section 3 of this Agreement to an Exchange Offer Registration, to the extent not required by the positions of the Staff of the SEC or the 1933 Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, will be in conformity with the
reasonable request in writing to the Issuers by one or more persons who certify to the Issuers in writing that they anticipate that they will be Participating Broker-Dealers or otherwise subject to a similar prospectus delivery obligation under the
1933 Act; and provided further that, in connection with such application of the Shelf Registration procedures set forth in 

  
 -19- 









 
Section 3 to an Exchange Offer Registration, the Issuers shall be obligated (x) to deal only with one entity representing such Participating Broker-Dealers and such other Holders
subject to a prospectus delivery obligation, which shall be Barclays Capital Inc. unless it elects not to act as such representative and (y) to pay the fees and expenses of only one counsel representing the Participating Broker-Dealers and such
other Holders subject to a prospectus delivery obligation. 
  

	 	5.	Indemnification. 

 (a) The Issuers agree, jointly and severally, to
indemnify and hold harmless each Holder of the Securities, any Affiliated Market Maker, any Participating Broker-Dealer and each person, if any, who controls such Holder, such Affiliated Market Maker, or such Participating Broker-Dealer within the
meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act (each Holder, any Affiliated Market Maker, any Participating Broker-Dealer and such controlling persons are referred to collectively as the “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any losses,
claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, or any actions in respect thereof (including, but not limited to, any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions relating to purchases and sales of the Securities) to which each Indemnified
Party may become subject under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a
Registration Statement or prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus or “issuer free writing prospectus,” as defined in Commission Rule 433 (“Issuer FWP”) relating to a Shelf
Registration, or arise out of, or are based upon, the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and shall reimburse, as incurred, the
Indemnified Parties for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action in respect thereof; provided, however, that the Issuers shall not be
liable in any such case to the extent that such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in a Registration Statement or prospectus or in any
amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus or Issuer FWP relating to a Shelf Registration in reliance upon and in conformity with written information pertaining to such Holder or any Affiliated Market Maker and furnished to the
Issuers by or on behalf of such Holder or any Affiliated Market Maker specifically for inclusion therein; provided further, however, that this indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have to such
Indemnified Party. The Issuers shall also indemnify underwriters, their officers and directors and each person who controls such underwriters within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act to the same extent as provided above with respect to the
indemnification of the Holders of the Securities if requested by such Holders. 
 (b) Each Holder and any Affiliated Market
Maker, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the Issuers and each person, if any, who controls an Issuer 

  
 -20- 









 
within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities or any actions in respect thereof, to which the Issuers or any such controlling
person may become subject under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in
a Registration Statement or prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus or Issuer FWP relating to a Shelf Registration, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a
material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but in each case only to the extent that the untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information pertaining to such Holder or any Affiliated Market Maker and furnished to the Issuers by or on behalf of such Holder or any Affiliated Market Maker specifically for inclusion therein; and, subject to the limitation set forth immediately
preceding this clause, shall reimburse, as incurred, the Issuers for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Issuers or any such controlling person in connection with investigating or defending any loss, claim, damage, liability or
action in respect thereof. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which such Holder or Affiliated Market Maker may otherwise have to the Issuers or any of their respective controlling persons. 

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 5 of notice of the commencement of any action or
proceeding (including a governmental investigation), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 5, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof; but
the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b) above. In case
any such action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other
indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and after
notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 5 for any legal or other expenses, other than
reasonable costs of investigation, subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending
or threatened action in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party
from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter of such action, and does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party. 

  
 -21- 









 (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5 is unavailable or
insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsections (a) or (b) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the
indemnified party on the other from the exchange of the Transfer Restricted Securities, pursuant to the Exchange Offer, or (ii) if the allocation provided by the foregoing clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion
as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other in connection with the
statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the parties shall be determined by reference to, among
other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Issuers on the one hand or such Holder or such other indemnified
party, as the case may be, on the other, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses,
claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any
action or claim which is the subject of this subsection (d). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5(d), the Holders of the Transfer Restricted Securities or Exchange Securities shall not be required to contribute any amount in
excess of the amount by which the net proceeds received by such Holders from the sale of the Transfer Restricted Securities or Exchange Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement exceeds the amount of damages which such Holders have otherwise
been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution
from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this paragraph (d), each person, if any, who controls such indemnified party within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act shall have the same rights to
contribution as such indemnified party and each person, if any, who controls an Issuer within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Issuers. 

(e) The agreements contained in this Section 5 shall survive the sale of the Transfer Restricted Securities or Exchange
Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination or cancellation of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

	 	6.	Miscellaneous. 

 (a) No Inconsistent Agreements. None of the
Issuers has entered into, and on or after the date of this Agreement will not enter into, any agreement which is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the

Section 5 hereof shall be effective as against any Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities or any Affiliated Market Maker unless consented to in writing by such Holder or Affiliated Market Maker, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a
waiver or consent to depart from the provisions hereof with respect to a matter that relates exclusively to the rights of Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities or any Affiliated Market Maker whose securities are being sold pursuant to a
Registration Statement and that does not directly or indirectly affect, impair, limit or compromise the rights of other Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities may be given by Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Transfer Restricted Securities being sold pursuant to such Registration Statement or such Affiliated Market Maker, as applicable.

 (d)
Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors, assigns and transferees of each of the parties, including, without limitation and without the need for an express assignment, subsequent
Holders; provided that nothing herein shall be deemed to permit any assignment, transfer or other disposition of Transfer Restricted Securities in violation of the terms of the Indenture. If any transferee of any Holder shall acquire Transfer
Restricted Securities, in any manner, whether by operation of law or otherwise, such Transfer Restricted Securities shall be 

  
 -23- 









 
held subject to all of the terms of this Agreement, and by taking and holding such Transfer Restricted Securities such Person shall be conclusively deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to
perform all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement and such Person shall be entitled to receive the benefits hereof. The Trustee (in its capacity as Trustee under the Indenture or acting on behalf of the Holders pursuant to this Agreement)
shall have no liability or obligation to either (i) the Issuers with respect to any failure by a Holder to comply with, or any breach by any Holder of, any of the obligations of such Holder under this Agreement or (ii) any Holder with
respect to any failure by the Issuers to comply with, or any breach by the Issuers of, any of the obligations of the Issuers under this Agreement. 

(e) Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject
matter hereof and supersedes and replaces all other prior agreements, written or oral, among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. 

(f) Third Party Beneficiary. The Holders and any Affiliated Market Maker shall be third party beneficiaries to the
agreements made hereunder between the Issuers, on the one hand, and the Trustee, on the other hand, and shall have the right to enforce such agreements directly to the extent it deems such enforcement necessary or advisable to protect its rights or
the rights of Holders hereunder.

by the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. 

(h) Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise
affect the meaning hereof. 
 (i) Governing Law. The internal laws of the State of New York shall govern the
enforceability and validity of this Agreement, the construction of its terms and the interpretation of the rights and duties of the parties hereto without giving effect to conflicts of laws, rules or principles. 

(j) Severability. In the event that any one or more of the provisions contained herein, or the application thereof in
any circumstance, is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of any such provision in every other respect and of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not be affected or impaired thereby.
