	2.	Exchange Offer 

  

	 	(a)	Unless the Exchange Offer would not be permitted by applicable laws or a policy of the SEC, the Company shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to) (i) prepare and file with the SEC, a registration statement (the
“Exchange Registration Statement”) on an appropriate form under the Securities Act with respect to an offer (the “Exchange Offer”) to the Holders of Notes to issue and deliver to such Holders, in exchange for the
Notes, a like principal amount of Exchange Notes and (ii) use its commercially reasonable efforts to Consummate the Exchange Offer within 365 days of the Closing Date (the “Consummation Date”). The Exchange Offer shall not be
subject to any conditions, other than that the Exchange Offer does not violate applicable law or any applicable interpretation of the staff of the SEC. 

  

	 	(b)	The Exchange Notes shall be issued under, and entitled to the benefits of, the Indenture or a trust indenture that is substantially identical to the Indenture (other than such changes as are necessary to comply with any
requirements of applicable law or the SEC to effect or maintain the qualifications thereof under the TIA). 

  

	 	(c)	Interest on the Exchange Notes will accrue from (i) the later of (x) the last interest payment due date on which interest was paid on the Notes surrendered in exchange therefor or (y) if the Note is
surrendered for exchange after the record date for an interest payment date to occur on or after the date of such exchange and as to which interest will be paid, the date of such interest payment date or (ii), if no interest has been paid on the
Notes, from the Closing Date. Each Exchange Note shall bear interest at the rate set forth thereon; provided, that interest with respect to the period prior to the issuance thereof shall accrue at the rate or rates borne by the Notes from
time to time during such period. 

  

	 	(d)	 The Company may require each Holder as a condition to participation in the Exchange Offer to represent prior to the expiration of the Exchange Offer
that (i) any Exchange Notes received by such Holder will be acquired in the ordinary course of its business, (ii) that at the time of the commencement and consummation of the Exchange Offer such Holder has not entered into any arrangement
or understanding with any Person to participate in the distribution (within the meaning of the Securities Act) of the Exchange Notes in violation of the provisions of the Securities Act, (iii) that if such Holder is an “affiliate” of
the Company within the meaning of Rule 405 of the Securities Act, it will comply 



  
 5 









	 	
with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act to the extent applicable to it, (iv) if such Holder is not a broker-dealer, that it is not engaged in, and
does not intend to engage in, the distribution of the Exchange Notes and (v) if such Holder is a Participating Broker-Dealer (as defined below), that it will deliver a Prospectus in connection with any resale of the Exchange Notes.


  

	 	(e)	The Company shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to) include within the Prospectus contained in the Exchange Registration Statement a section entitled “Plan of Distribution” reasonably acceptable to the
Representative which shall contain all of the information that the SEC may require with respect to the potential “underwriter” status of any broker-dealer that is the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) of
Exchange Notes received by such broker-dealer in the Exchange Offer for its own account in exchange for Notes that were acquired by it as a result of market-making or other trading activity (a “Participating Broker-Dealer”). Such
“Plan of Distribution” section shall also allow, to the extent permitted by applicable policies and regulations of the SEC, the use of the Prospectus by all Participating Broker-Dealers, and include a statement describing the manner in
which Participating Broker-Dealers may resell the Exchange Notes. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Exchange Registration Statement effective and to amend and supplement the Prospectus contained therein, in order
to permit such Prospectus to be lawfully delivered by Participating Broker-Dealers for such period of time as such Persons must comply with such requirements in order to resell the Exchange Notes; provided, that such period shall not exceed
the lesser of 180 days and the date on which all Participating Broker-Dealers have sold all Exchange Notes held by them (the “Applicable Period”). 


 

	 	(f)	In connection with the Exchange Offer, the Company shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to) use commercially reasonable efforts to: 


 

	 	(i)	mail or cause to be mailed to each Holder a copy of the Prospectus forming part of the Exchange Registration Statement, together with an appropriate letter of transmittal (substantially in the form attached as an
exhibit to the Exchange Offer Registration Statement) and any related documents; 

  

	 	(ii)	keep the Exchange Offer open for not less than 20 Business Days after the date notice thereof is mailed to the Holders (or longer if required by applicable law) 


 

	 	(iii)	utilize the services of a depository for the Exchange Offer, which may be the Trustee or an affiliate thereof; 

  

	 	(iv)	permit Holders to withdraw tendered Registrable Notes at any time prior to the close of business, New York City time, on the last Business Day on which the Exchange Offer shall remain open; and 


 

	 	(v)	otherwise comply in all material respects with all applicable laws. 


  
 6 









	 	(g)	As soon as practicable after the close of the Exchange Offer the Company shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to): 

  

	 	(i)	accept for exchange all Registrable Notes validly tendered pursuant to the Exchange Offer and not validly withdrawn; 

  

	 	(ii)	deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee for cancellation all Registrable Notes so accepted for exchange; and 

  

	 	(iii)	cause the Trustee to authenticate and deliver promptly to each Holder validly tendering such Registrable Notes, Exchange Notes equal in principal amount to the Notes of such Holder so accepted for exchange.


  

	 	(h)	The Exchange Notes may be issued under (i) the Indenture or (ii) an indenture substantially identical to the Indenture (other than such changes as are necessary to comply with any requirements of the SEC to
effect or maintain the qualification thereof under the TIA), which in either event will provide that the Exchange Notes will not be subject to the transfer restrictions set forth in the Indenture, and that the Exchange Notes and the Notes will be
deemed one class of security (subject to the provisions of the Indenture). 

  

	 	(i)	If: (i) prior to the Consummation of the Exchange Offer, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of Registrable Notes determines in its or their reasonable judgment that (A) upon the advice of
counsel that the Exchange Notes would not, upon receipt, be tradeable by the Holders thereof without restriction under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and without material restrictions under applicable Blue Sky or state securities laws, or
(B) the interests of the Holders under this Agreement, taken as a whole, would be materially adversely affected by the consummation of the Exchange Offer and, in the case of (A) or (B), notifies the Company in writing of such
determination; (ii) any change in law or in applicable interpretations of the staff of the SEC would not permit the Consummation of the Exchange Offer; (iii) the Exchange Offer is not Consummated by the Consummation Date for any
reason; or (v) in the case of (A) any Holder prohibited by applicable law or SEC policy from participating in the Exchange Offer, (B) any Holder participating in the Exchange Offer that receives Exchange Notes that may not be sold
without restriction under state and federal securities laws (other than due solely to the status of such Holder as an affiliate of the Company within the meaning of Rule 405 of the Securities Act) or (C) any broker-dealer that holds Notes
acquired by such broker-dealer directly from the Company or any of its affiliates and, in each such case contemplated by this clause (v), such Holder notifies the Company in writing within 20 Business Days of the Consummation of the Exchange
Offer, then the Company shall promptly (and in any event within five Business Days of such notification) deliver to the Holders (or in the case of an occurrence of any event described in clause (v) of this Section 2(i), to any such Holder)
and the Trustee notice thereof (the “Shelf Notice”) and shall as promptly as practicable thereafter file an Initial Shelf Registration pursuant to Section 3 hereof. 


  
 7 









	3.	Shelf Registration 

 If, but only if, a Shelf Notice is delivered pursuant to
Section 2(i) prior to the commencement of the Exchange Offer, then this Section 3 shall apply to all Registrable Notes (in such case, the Registrable Notes are also referred to herein as “Registrable Shelf Notes”).
Otherwise, the provisions of this Section 3 shall apply solely upon Consummation of the Exchange Offer in accordance with Section 2 and solely with respect to Exchange Notes that are not freely tradeable as contemplated by
Section 2(i)(v) hereof; provided that in each case that the relevant Holder has duly notified the Company as required by, and in the time period set forth in, clause (v) of Section 2(i) (the “Notice Shelf Notes” and,
together with the Registrable Shelf Notes, the “Shelf Notes”). 
  

	 	(a)	Initial Shelf Registration. The Company shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to), as promptly as practicable, file with the SEC a Registration Statement for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant
to Rule 415 covering all of the Shelf Notes (the “Initial Shelf Registration”). If the Company and the Guarantors have not yet filed an Exchange Registration Statement, the Company and the Guarantors shall file with the SEC the
Initial Shelf Registration and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Initial Shelf Registration to be declared effective under the Securities Act on or prior to the Initial Shelf Effectiveness Date. Otherwise, the Company shall
(and shall cause each Guarantor to) use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Shelf Registration to be declared effective by the Shelf Effectiveness Date. The Initial Shelf Registration shall be on Form S-3 or another appropriate form
permitting registration of such Shelf Notes for resale by Holders in the manner or manners reasonably designated by them (including, without limitation, one or more Underwritten Offerings). The Company and Guarantors shall not permit any securities
other than the Shelf Notes to be included in any Shelf Registration. The Company shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to) use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Initial Shelf Registration continuously effective under the Securities Act
until the date which is one year from the Closing Date (subject to extension pursuant to Section 3(e)) (the “Effectiveness Period”), or such shorter period ending when (i) all Shelf Notes covered by the Initial Shelf
Registration have been sold in the manner set forth and as contemplated in the Initial Shelf Registration (ii) a Subsequent Shelf Registration covering all of the Registrable Notes covered by and not sold under the Initial Shelf Registration or
an earlier Subsequent Shelf Registration has been declared effective under the Securities Act, (iii) there cease to be any outstanding Shelf Notes registered thereunder or (iv) the date on which all Registrable Notes covered by such Shelf
Registration become eligible for resale without regard to volume, manner of sale or other restrictions contained in Rule 144. 

  

	 	(b)	 Subsequent Shelf Registrations. If the Initial Shelf Registration or any Subsequent Shelf Registration (as defined below) ceases to be
effective for any 



  
 8 









	 	
reason at any time during the Effectiveness Period (other than because of the sale of all of the securities registered thereunder), the Company shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to) use its
commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the prompt withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness thereof, and in any event shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to, within 30 days of such cessation of effectiveness, amend such Shelf
Registration in a manner to obtain the withdrawal of the order suspending the effectiveness thereof, or file (and cause each Guarantor to file) a separate “shelf” Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 415 covering all of the Shelf Notes
(a “Subsequent Shelf Registration”). If a Subsequent Shelf Registration is filed, the Company shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to) use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Subsequent Shelf Registration to be
declared effective as soon as practicable after such filing and to keep such Subsequent Shelf Registration continuously effective for a period equal to the number of days in the Effectiveness Period less the aggregate number of days during which the
Initial Shelf Registration or any Subsequent Shelf Registration was previously continuously effective. As used herein the term “Shelf Registration” means the Initial Shelf Registration and any Subsequent Shelf Registrations.


  

	 	(c)	Supplements and Amendments. The Company shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to) use its reasonable best efforts to promptly supplement and amend any Shelf Registration if required by the rules, regulations or
instructions applicable to the registration form used for such Shelf Registration, if required by the Securities Act, or if reasonably requested in writing by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Shelf Notes covered by such
Shelf Registration with respect to information relating to such Holders or by any underwriter of such Registrable Notes in connection with an Underwritten Offering. 


 

	 	(d)	Provision of Information. No Holder of Shelf Notes shall be entitled to include any of its Shelf Notes in any Shelf Registration pursuant to this Agreement unless such Holder furnishes to the Company and the
Trustee in writing, within 20 days after receipt of a written request therefor, such information as the Company or the Trustee reasonably believe is required for inclusion in any Shelf Registration or Prospectus included therein and so requests, and
no such Holder shall be entitled to Additional Interest pursuant to Section 4 hereof unless and until such Holder shall have provided such information. 

  

	 	(e)	 Blackout Periods. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, upon notice to Holders, the Company may suspend use of
the Prospectus included in any Shelf Registration for a period of time (a “Suspension Period”) in the event that the Company determines in good faith that (1) the disclosure of an event, occurrence or other item at such time
could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the business, operations or prospects of the Company and the Guarantors, taken as a whole, or (2) the disclosure otherwise relates to a material business transaction which has not been
publicly disclosed and that any such disclosure would jeopardize the success of the transaction or 



  
 9 









	 	
that disclosure of the transaction is prohibited pursuant to the terms thereof. The cumulative Suspension Periods in any 12-month period commencing on the Closing Date may not exceed an
aggregate of 90 days during any 12-month period. 

  

	4.	Additional Interest 

  

	 	(a)	The Company and each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that the Holders of Registrable Notes will suffer damages if the Company or any Guarantors fails to Consummate the Exchange Offer (a “Registration
Default”) and that it would not be feasible to ascertain the extent of such damages with precision. Accordingly, the Company and the Guarantors agree to pay additional cash interest on the Notes (“Additional Interest”)
under the circumstances and to the extent set forth below if the Exchange Offer has not been Consummated on or prior to the Consummation Date, Additional Interest shall accrue on the Notes over and above any stated interest at a per annum rate of
0.25% on the principal amount of such Notes for the first 90 days immediately following the Consummation Date, such Additional Interest rate increasing by an additional per annum rate of 0.25% on the principal amount such Notes at the beginning of
each subsequent 90-day period; provided, however, that the maximum Additional Interest rate on the Notes may not exceed at any one time a per annum rate of 1.0% over and above any stated interest rate; and provided further, that upon
Consummation of the Exchange Offer, any Additional Interest on the Notes or the Shelf Notes, as applicable, as a result of such clause (or the relevant subclause thereof) shall cease to accrue. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Additional Interest
shall be payable for Registration Defaults related to a failure of the Company to cause a Shelf Registration to be declared effective only to Holders of Shelf Notes. Additional Interest pursuant to this Section 4 constitutes liquidated damages
with respect to a Registration Default and shall be the exclusive monetary remedy available to the Holders with respect to a Registration Default. 

  

	 	(b)	The Company shall notify the Trustee within five Business Days after the date on which a Registration Default occurs in respect of which Additional Interest is required to be paid. Any accrued amounts of Additional
Interest due pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 4 will be payable in cash in arrears, on the dates and in the manner provided in the Indenture and whether or not any cash interest would then be payable on such date, commencing
with the first such semi-annual date occurring after any such Additional Interest commences to accrue. The amount of Additional Interest will be determined by multiplying the applicable Additional Interest rate by the principal amount of the Notes,
multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days such Additional Interest rate was applicable during such period (determined on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months and, in the case of a partial month,
the actual number of days elapsed), and the denominator of which is 360. 


  
 10 









	5.	Hold-Back Agreements 

 The Company agrees that it will not effect any public or
private sale or distribution (including a sale pursuant to Regulation D under the Securities Act) of any securities the same as or substantially the same as to those covered by a Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2 or 3 hereof
(other than Additional Notes (as defined in the Indenture) issued under the Indenture), or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities, during the 10 days prior to, and during the 90-day period beginning on,
the effective date of any Registration Statement filed pursuant to Sections 2 and 3 hereof unless the Holders of a majority in the aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Notes to be included in such Registration Statement consent, if the
managing underwriter thereof so requests in writing. 
  

	6.	Registration Procedures 

 In connection with the filing of any Registration
Statement pursuant to Sections 2 or 3 hereof, the Company shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to) effect such registrations to permit the sale of such securities covered thereby in accordance with the intended method or methods of
disposition thereof, and pursuant thereto and in connection with any Registration Statement filed by the Company hereunder, the Company shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to): 

 

	 	(a)	 Prepare and file with the SEC the Exchange Registration Statement or, if the Exchange Registration Statement is not filed because of the circumstances
contemplated by Section 2(i) hereof, a Shelf Registration as prescribed by Section 3 hereof, and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause each such Registration Statement to become effective and remain effective as provided herein;
provided that, if (1) a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to Section 3 hereof or (2) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2 hereof is required to be delivered under the
Securities Act by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Notes during the Applicable Period relating thereto, before filing any Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto the Company shall (and
shall cause each Guarantor to), if requested, furnish to and afford, in the case of clause (1) above, the Holders of the Registrable Notes to be registered pursuant to such Shelf Registration, in the case of clause (2) above, each
Participating Broker-Dealer, the managing underwriters in an Underwritten Offering, if any, and each of their respective counsel, a reasonable opportunity to review copies of all such documents (including copies of any documents to be incorporated
by reference therein and all exhibits thereto) proposed to be filed (in each case at least five Business Days prior to such filing). The Company and each Guarantor shall not file any such Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendments or
supplements thereto in respect of which the Holders must provide information for the inclusion therein without the Holders being afforded an opportunity to review such documentation if the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Registrable Notes covered by such Registration Statement, or any such Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, the managing underwriters in an Underwritten Offering, if any, or any of their respective counsel shall reasonably object in
writing within three Business Days after the receipt thereof. A Holder 



  
 11 









	 	
shall be deemed to have reasonably objected to such filing if such Holder’s objection to such Registration Statement, amendment, Prospectus or supplement, as applicable, as proposed to be
filed, relates to an untrue statement of a material fact or an omission to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or a failure to comply with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act.


  

	 	(b)	Provide an indenture trustee for the Registrable Notes or the Exchange Notes and cause the Indenture (or other indenture relating to the Registrable Notes) to be qualified under the TIA not later than the effective date
of the first Registration Statement; and in connection therewith, to effect such changes to such indenture as may be required for such indenture to be so qualified in accordance with the terms of the TIA; and execute, and use its commercially
reasonable efforts to cause such 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 such indenture to be so qualified in a timely manner.


  

	 	(c)	Prepare and file with the SEC such pre-effective amendments and post-effective amendments to each Shelf Registration or Exchange Registration Statement, as the case may be, as may be necessary to keep such Registration
Statement continuously effective for the Effectiveness Period or the Applicable Period, as the case may be; cause the related Prospectus to be supplemented by any Prospectus supplement required by applicable law, and as so supplemented to be filed
pursuant to Rule 424 (or any similar provisions then in force) promulgated under the Securities Act; cause the applicable Registration Statement to comply with the Securities Act and the Exchange Act; and comply with the provisions of the
Securities Act and the Exchange Act applicable to them with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such Registration Statement as so amended or in such Prospectus as so supplemented and with respect to the subsequent resale of any
securities being sold by a Participating Broker-Dealer in the manner disclosed to the Company by such Participating Broker-Dealer covered by any such Prospectus. The Company and each Guarantor shall not, during the Applicable Period, voluntarily
take any action that would result in selling Holders of the Registrable Notes covered by a Registration Statement or Participating Broker-Dealers seeking to sell Exchange Notes not being able to sell such Registrable Notes or such Exchange Notes
during that period, unless such action is required by applicable law, rule or regulation or permitted by this Agreement. 

  

	 	(d)	 Furnish to such selling Holders and Participating Broker-Dealers who so request in writing (i) upon the Company’s receipt, a copy of the
order of the SEC declaring such Registration Statement and any post effective amendment thereto effective, (ii) such reasonable number of copies of such Registration Statement and of each amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including
any documents incorporated therein by reference and all exhibits unless such documents or exhibits are publicly available) and (iii) such reasonable number of copies of the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each
preliminary Prospectus) and each amendment and supplement thereto, and such 



  
 12 









	 	
reasonable number of copies of the final Prospectus as filed by the Company and each Guarantor pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, in conformity with the requirements of the
Securities Act and each amendment and supplement thereto (including any amendments required to be filed pursuant to clause (c) of this Section). Subject to Section 3(e) hereof, the Company and the Guarantors hereby consent to the use of
the Prospectus by each of the selling Holders of Registrable Notes or each such Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, and the underwriters or agents, if any, and dealers, if any, in connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable
Notes covered by, or the sale by Participating Broker-Dealers of the Exchange Notes pursuant to, such Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto. 

  

	 	(e)	 If (1) a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to Section 3 hereof, or (2) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Registration Statement
filed pursuant to Section 2 hereof is required to be delivered under the Securities Act by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Notes during the Applicable Period relating thereto, the Company shall notify in writing the
selling Holders of Registrable Notes, or each such Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, the managing underwriters in an Underwritten Offering, if any, and each of their respective counsel promptly (but in any event within two Business
Days) (i) when a Prospectus or any Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and, with respect to a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective (including in such notice a
written statement that any Holder may, upon request, obtain, without charge, one conformed copy of such Registration Statement or post-effective amendment including financial statements and schedules, documents incorporated or deemed to be
incorporated by reference and exhibits), (ii) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement or of any order preventing or suspending the use of any Prospectus or the initiation of any
proceedings for that purpose, (iii) if at any time when a Prospectus is required by the Securities Act to be delivered in connection with sales of the Registrable Notes the representations and warranties of the Company and any Guarantor
contained in any agreement (including any underwriting agreement) contemplated by Section 6(n) hereof cease to be true and correct, in all material respects, during the relevant offering period, (iv) of the receipt by the Company or any
Guarantor of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of a Registration Statement or any of the Registrable Notes or the Exchange Notes to be sold by any Participating Broker-Dealer for
offer or sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose, (v) of the happening of any event, the existence of any condition or any information becoming known to the Company that makes any statement
made in such Registration Statement or related Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect or that requires the making of any changes in, or amendments or supplements to,
such Registration Statement, Prospectus or documents so that, in the case of the Registration Statement, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required

to be stated therein to make the statement not misleading, or in the case of a Prospectus or documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference, it will not contain any untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, (vi) of any reasonable
determination by the Company or any Guarantor that a post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement would be appropriate and (vii) of any request by the SEC for amendments to the Registration Statement or supplements to the Prospectus or

required filings of such Prospectus supplement or such post-effective amendment as soon as practicable after the Company has received notification of the matters to be incorporated in such Prospectus supplements or post-effective amendment;
provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to take any action hereunder that would, in the written opinion of counsel to the Company, violate applicable laws.

jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified, (B) take any action that would subject it to general service of process in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject or (C) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction
where it is not then so subject. 

  

	 	(i)	If (A) a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to Section 3 or (B) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2 is requested to be delivered under the
Securities Act by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Notes during the Applicable Period, cooperate with the selling Holders of Registrable Notes and the managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, in an Underwritten

shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to) cooperate in all reasonable respects with the filing of such Registration Statement and the granting of such approvals; provided that neither the Company nor any Guarantor shall be required to
(A) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified, (B) take any action that would subject it to general service of process in any jurisdiction where it is not then so subject or (C) subject

	 	(k)	If (1) a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to Section 3, or (2) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2 is required to be delivered under the
Securities Act by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Notes during the Applicable Period, upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by paragraph 6(e)(v) or 6(e)(vi) hereof (other than during a Blackout Period), as promptly
as practicable, prepare and file with the SEC, at the expense of the Company and the Guarantors, a supplement or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or a supplement to the related Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed
to be incorporated therein by reference, or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of the Registrable Notes being sold thereunder or to the purchasers of the Exchange Notes to whom such Prospectus will be
delivered by a Participating Broker-Dealer, such Registration Statement will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein to make the statements not misleading or such Prospectus
or documents incorporated by reference or deemed to be incorporated by reference will not contain an 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, in
light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and, if SEC review is required, use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such post-effective amendment to be declared effective as soon as possible.

managing underwriters, if any, in an Underwritten Offering or the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Notes being sold) in order to expedite or facilitate the registration or the disposition of such Registrable
Notes, and in such connection, whether or not an underwriting agreement is entered into and whether or not the registration is an Underwritten Registration, (i) make such representations and warranties to the Holders and the underwriters, if
any, with respect to the business of the Company and its subsidiaries as then conducted, and the Registration Statement, Prospectus and documents, if any, incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein, in each case, in form,
substance

and scope as are customarily made by issuers to underwriters in underwritten offerings of debt securities similar to the Notes, as may be appropriate in the circumstances, and confirm the same if
and when reasonably required; (ii) use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain an opinion of counsel to the Company and the Guarantors and updates thereof (which counsel and opinions (in form, scope and substance) shall be reasonably
satisfactory to the managing underwriters, if any, and the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Notes being sold), addressed to each selling Holder and each of the underwriters, if any, covering the matters
customarily covered in opinions of counsel to the Company and the Guarantors requested in underwritten offerings of debt securities similar to the Notes, as may be appropriate in the circumstances; (iii) use its commercially reasonable efforts
to obtain “cold comfort” letters and updates thereof (which letters and updates (in form, scope and substance) shall be reasonably satisfactory to the managing underwriters in an Underwritten Offering) from the independent certified public
accountants of the Company and the Guarantors (and, if necessary, any other independent certified public accountants of any subsidiary of the Company or of any business acquired by the Company for which financial statements and financial data are,
or are required to be, included in the Registration Statement), addressed to each of the underwriters, such letters to be in customary form and covering matters of the type customarily covered in “cold comfort” letters in connection with
underwritten offerings of debt securities similar to the Notes, as may be appropriate in the circumstances, and such other matters as reasonably requested in writing by the underwriters; and (iv) deliver such documents and certificates as may
be reasonably requested in writing by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Notes being sold and the managing underwriters, if any, in an Underwritten Offering to evidence the continued validity of the

	 	(o)	 If (1) a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to Section 3, or (2) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Registration Statement filed
pursuant to Section 2 is required to be delivered under the Securities Act by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Notes during the Applicable Period, make available for inspection by any selling Holder of such Registrable

other records and pertinent corporate documents of the Company, the Guarantors and their respective subsidiaries (collectively, the “Records”) as shall be reasonably requested by them and necessary to enable them to exercise any
applicable due diligence responsibilities, and cause the officers, directors and 



  
 17 









	 	
employees of the Company, the Guarantors and their respective subsidiaries to supply all information reasonably requested in writing by any such Inspector in connection with such Registration
Statement; provided that the foregoing inspection and information gathering on behalf of the Holders shall be coordinated by one counsel designated by and on behalf of the Holders. Each Inspector shall agree in writing that it will keep the
Records confidential and that it will not disclose, or use in connection with any market transactions in violation of any applicable securities laws, any of the Records unless (i) the disclosure of such Records is necessary to avoid or correct
a misstatement or omission in such Registration Statement, (ii) the release of such Records is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other order from a court of competent jurisdiction, (iii) the information in such Records is public or has
been made generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure or failure to safeguard by such Inspector or (iv) disclosure of such information is, in the reasonable written opinion of counsel for any Inspector, necessary or
advisable in connection with any action, claim, suit or proceeding, directly or indirectly, involving or potentially involving such Inspector and arising out of, based upon, related to, or involving this Agreement, or any transaction contemplated
hereby or arising hereunder. Each selling Holder of such Registrable Notes and each such Participating Broker-Dealer will be required to agree that information obtained by it as a result of such inspections shall be deemed confidential and shall not
be used by it as the basis for any market transactions in the securities of the Company unless and until such information is made generally available to the public. Each Inspector, each selling Holder of such Registrable Notes and each such
Participating Broker-Dealer will be required to further agree that it will, upon learning that disclosure of such Records is sought in a court of competent jurisdiction, give notice to the Company and, to the extent practicable, use its commercially
reasonable efforts to allow the Company, at its expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of the Records deemed confidential at its expense. 

  


	 	(p)	Use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and make generally available to the security holders of the Company with regard to any Applicable Registration Statement

after the end of any 12-month period if such period is a fiscal year) (i) commencing at the end of any fiscal quarter in which Registrable Notes are sold to underwriters in a firm commitment or best efforts Underwritten Offering and
(ii) if not sold to underwriters in such an offering, commencing on the first day of the first fiscal quarter of the Company after the effective date of a Registration Statement, which statements shall cover said 12-month periods.


  

	 	(q)	 Upon consummation of an Exchange Offer, use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain an opinion of counsel to the Company and the Guarantors (in
form, scope and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Representative), 



  
 18 









	 	
addressed to the Trustee for the benefit of all Holders participating in the Exchange Offer to the effect that (i) the Company and the Guarantors have duly authorized, executed and delivered
the Exchange Notes and the Indenture and (ii) the Exchange Notes and the Indenture constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company and the Guarantors, enforceable against the Company and the Guarantors in accordance with their
respective terms, except as such enforcement may be subject to customary United States and foreign exceptions.1 


 

	 	(r)	If the Exchange Offer is to be consummated, upon delivery of the Registrable Notes by the Holders to the Company and the Guarantors (or to such other Person as directed by the Company and the Guarantors) in exchange for
the Exchange Notes, the Company and the Guarantors shall mark, or caused to be marked, on such Registrable Notes that the Exchange Notes are being issued as substitute evidence of the indebtedness originally evidenced by the Registrable Notes;
provided that in no event shall such Registrable Notes be marked as paid or otherwise satisfied but such Registrable Notes may be marked so as to void them. 


 

	 	(s)	Cooperate with each seller of Registrable Notes covered by any Registration Statement and each underwriter, if any, participating in the disposition of such Registrable Notes and their respective counsel in connection
with any filings required to be made with FINRA. 

  

	 	(t)	Use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all Notes covered by a Registration Statement to be listed on each securities exchange, if any, on which similar debt securities issued by the Company are then listed.


  

	 	(u)	Use its commercially reasonable efforts to take all other steps reasonably necessary to effect the registration of the Registrable Notes covered by a Registration Statement contemplated hereby. 


 

	 	(v)	Each seller of Registrable Notes or Participating Broker-Dealer as to which any registration is being effected shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such seller or Participating Broker-Dealer and the
distribution of such Registrable Notes as the Company may, from time to time, reasonably request in writing. The Company may exclude from such registration the Registrable Notes of any seller who fails to furnish such information within a reasonable
time (which time in no event shall exceed 10 days, subject to Section 3(d)) hereof) after receiving such request. Each seller of Registrable Notes or Participating Broker-Dealer as to which any 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 by such seller not materially misleading. 

  

	 	(w)	Each Holder of Registrable Notes and each Participating Broker-Dealer agrees by acquisition of such Registrable Notes or Exchange Notes to be sold by such

Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 6(e)(ii), 6(e)(iv), 6(e)(v),
or 6(e)(vi) or the commencement of a Suspension Period, such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of such Registrable Notes covered by a Registration Statement and such Participating Broker-Dealer will forthwith discontinue disposition of
such Exchange Notes pursuant to any Prospectus and, in each case, forthwith discontinue dissemination of such Prospectus until such Holder’s or Participating Broker-Dealer’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus
contemplated by Section 6(k), or until it is advised in writing (the “Advice”) by the Company that the use of the applicable Prospectus may be resumed, and has received copies of any amendments or supplements thereto and, if so
directed by the Company, such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, will deliver to the Company all copies, other than permanent file copies, then in such Holder’s or Participating Broker-Dealer’s possession, of the
Prospectus covering such Registrable Notes current at the time of the receipt of such notice. In the event the Company shall give any such notice, the Applicable Period shall be extended by the number of days during such periods from and including
the date of the giving of such notice to and including the date when each Participating Broker-Dealer shall have received (x) the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 6(k) or (y) the Advice.


  

	7.	Registration Expenses 

  

	 	(a)	 All fees and expenses incident to the performance of or compliance with this Agreement by the Company and the Guarantors shall be borne by the Company

Note is being issued. The Company and the Guarantors shall reimburse the Holders for fees and expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Holders) relating to any enforcement of any rights of the Holders under this Agreement.


  

	8.	Indemnification 

  

	 	(a)	 Indemnification by the Company and the Guarantors. The Company and the Guarantors jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold harmless
each Holder of Registrable Notes and each Participating Broker-Dealer selling Exchange Notes during the Applicable Period, each Person, if any, who controls each such Holder (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or
Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act) and the officers, directors, agents, employees and partners of each such Holder, Participating Broker-Dealer and controlling person, to the fullest extent lawful, from and against any and all losses, claims,
damages, liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, reasonable costs of 



  
 21 









	 	
preparation and reasonable attorneys’ fees as provided in this Section 8) and reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection
with investigating, preparing, pursuing or defending against any of the foregoing) (collectively, “Losses”), as incurred, directly or indirectly caused by, related to, based upon, arising out of or in connection with, in the case of
the Registration Statement or in any amendments thereto, any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained therein or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein to make the
statements not misleading, or in the case of any Prospectus or form of prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto, or in any preliminary prospectus, any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained therein or any
omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except insofar as such Losses are
solely based upon information relating to such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer and furnished in writing to the Company and the Guarantors by such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer or their counsel expressly for use therein.


  

	 	(b)	Indemnification by Holder. In connection with any Registration Statement, Prospectus or form of prospectus, any amendment or supplement thereto, or any preliminary prospectus in which a Holder is participating,
such Holder shall furnish to the Company and the Guarantors in writing such information as the Company and the Guarantors reasonably request for use in connection with any Registration Statement, Prospectus or form of prospectus, any amendment or
supplement thereto, or any preliminary prospectus and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the Guarantors, their respective directors, officers, agents, employees and each Person, if any, who controls the Company and the Guarantors (within
the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, employees and partners of such controlling persons, to the fullest extent lawful, from and against all Losses arising out
of or based upon, in the case of the Registration Statement or in any amendments thereto, any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained therein or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be
stated therein to make the statements not misleading, or in the case of any Prospectus or form of prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto, or in any preliminary prospectus, any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
contained therein or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading to the extent,
but only to the extent, that such losses are finally judicially determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, unappealable order to have resulted solely from an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or
omission or alleged omission of a material fact contained in or omitted from any information so furnished in writing by such Holder to the Company and the Guarantors expressly for use therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the
liability of any selling Holder be greater in amount than such Holder’s Maximum Contribution Amount (as defined below). 


  
 22 









	 	(c)	Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. If any proceeding shall be brought or asserted against any Person entitled to indemnity hereunder (an “Indemnified Party”), such Indemnified Party shall
promptly notify the party or parties from which such indemnity is sought (the “Indemnifying Party” or “Indemnifying Parties”, as applicable) in writing; provided, that the failure to so notify the
Indemnifying Party (i) will not relieve such Indemnifying Party from any liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and only to the extent it is materially prejudiced as a result thereof and (ii) will not, in any event,
relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligations to any Indemnified Party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraphs (a) and (b) above. 


The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, exercisable by giving written notice to an Indemnified Party, within 20 Business Days after
receipt of written notice from such Indemnified Party of such proceeding, to assume, at its expense, the defense of any such proceeding; provided, that an Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such
proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party or parties unless: (1) the Indemnifying Party has agreed to pay such fees and expenses in writing;
or (2) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to assume the defense of such proceeding or shall have failed to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party; or (3) the named parties to any such proceeding
(including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party or any of its affiliates or controlling persons, and such Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that there may be one or more defenses
available to such Indemnified Party that are in addition to, or in conflict with, those defenses available to the Indemnifying Party or such affiliate or controlling person (in which case, if such Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Parties
in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Parties, the Indemnifying Parties shall not have the right to assume the defense and the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of
the Indemnifying Party; it being understood, however, that, the Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any one such proceeding or separate but substantially similar or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, arising out of the same
general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (together with appropriate local counsel) at any time for such Indemnified Party). 

No Indemnifying Party shall be liable for any settlement of any such proceeding effected without its written consent, which shall not be
unreasonably withheld, but if settled with its written consent, or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such proceeding, each Indemnifying Party jointly and severally agrees, subject to the exceptions and limitations set forth
above, to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Party from and against any and all Losses by reason of such settlement or judgment. The Indemnifying Party shall not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement unless such
judgment or settlement (i) includes as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to each Indemnified Party of a release, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, from all liability in
respect of such proceeding for which such Indemnified Party would be 

  
 23 








 
entitled to indemnification hereunder (whether or not any Indemnified Party is a party thereto) and (ii) 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. 
  

	 	(d)	Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 is unavailable to an Indemnified Party or is insufficient to hold such Indemnified Party harmless for any Losses in respect of which this
Section 8 would otherwise apply by its terms (other than by reason of exceptions provided in this Section 8), then each applicable Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall have a joint and several
obligation to contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and such Indemnified Party,
on the other hand, in connection with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and Indemnified Party, on
the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such Indemnifying
Party or Indemnified Party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent any such statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of any Losses
shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any proceeding, to the extent such party would have been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the indemnification provided for in
Section 8(a) or 8(b) was available to such party. 

 The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if
contribution pursuant to this Section 8(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. Notwithstanding
the provisions of this Section 8(d), a selling Holder shall not be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of such Holder’s Maximum Contribution Amount. A selling Holder’s “Maximum Contribution
Amount” shall equal the excess of (i) the aggregate proceeds received by such Holder pursuant to the sale of such Registrable Notes or Exchange Notes over (ii) the aggregate amount of damages that such Holder has 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 Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution
from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Holders’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 8(d) are several in proportion to the respective principal amount of the Registrable Notes held by
each Holder hereunder and not joint. The Company’s and the Guarantors’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 8(d) are joint and several. 

The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section 8 are in addition to any liability that the Indemnifying Parties may
have to the Indemnified Parties.

	9.	Rules 144 and 144A 

  

	 	(a)	The Company covenants that, so long as the Registrable Notes remain outstanding, it shall (a) file the reports required to be filed by it (if so required) under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act in a timely
manner and, if at any time the Company is not required to file such reports, it will, upon the written request of any Holder of Registrable Notes, make publicly available other information necessary to permit sales pursuant to Rule 144 and Rule
144A and (b) take such further action as any Holder may reasonably request in writing, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Registrable Notes without registration under the Securities Act pursuant to the
exemptions provided by Rule 144 and Rule 144A. 

  

	 	(b)	Availability of Rule 144 Not Excuse for Obligations under Section 2. The fact that Holders of Registrable Notes may become eligible to sell such Registrable Notes pursuant to Rule 144 shall not
(1) cause such Notes to cease to be Registrable Notes or (2) excuse the Company’s and the Guarantors’ obligations set forth in Section 2 hereof, including without limitation the obligations in respect of an Exchange Offer,
Shelf Registration and Additional Interest. 

  

	10.	Underwritten Registrations of Registrable Notes 

 If any of the Registrable Notes
covered by any Shelf Registration are to be sold in an Underwritten Offering, the investment banker or investment bankers and manager or managers that will manage the offering will be selected by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal
amount of such Registrable Notes included in such offering; provided, however, that such investment banker or investment bankers and manager or managers must be reasonably acceptable to the Company. The Company shall be required to
effect an Underwritten Offering only if the Company is required to file a Shelf Registration and in no event shall the Company be required to effect more than three Underwritten Offerings pursuant to this Agreement. 

No Holder of Registrable Notes may participate in any Underwritten Registration hereunder unless such Holder (a) agrees to sell such
Holder’s Registrable Notes on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (b) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities,
underwriting agreements and other documents required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements. 
  

	11.	Miscellaneous 

  

	 	(a)	 Remedies. In the event of a breach by either the Company or the Guarantors of any of their respective obligations under this Agreement, each
Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein, in the Indenture or, in the case of the Representative, in the Purchase Agreement, or granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific
performance of its rights under this Agreement. The Company and the Guarantors agree, subject to Section 4(a) hereof, that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation 



  
 25 









	 	
for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by either the Company or the Guarantors of any of the provisions of this Agreement and hereby further agree that, in the event of any action for
specific performance in respect of such breach, the Company shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to) waive the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate. 

  

	 	(b)	No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company and the Guarantors have not entered, as of the date hereof, and the Company and the Guarantors shall not enter, after the date of this Agreement, into any agreement with
respect to any of its securities that would prevent consummation of the Exchange Offer, the effectiveness of a Shelf Registration or the performance by the Company or the Guarantors of their other obligations hereunder or otherwise conflicts with
the provisions hereof. The Company and the Guarantors have not entered and will not enter into any agreement with respect to any of its securities that will grant to any Person piggy-back rights with respect to a Registration Statement.


  

	 	(c)	Adjustments Affecting Registrable Notes. The Company shall not, directly or indirectly, take any action with respect to the Registrable Notes as a class that would adversely affect the ability of the Holders to
include such Registrable Notes in a registration undertaken pursuant to this Agreement. 

  

	 	(d)	Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to or departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, other than with the
prior written consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Registrable Notes in circumstances that would adversely affect any Holders of Registrable Notes; provided, however,
that Section 8 and this Section 11(d) may not be amended, modified or supplemented without the prior written consent of each Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a waiver or consent to or depart from the provisions hereof with respect to
a matter that relates exclusively to the rights of Holders of Registrable Notes whose securities are being tendered pursuant to the Exchange Offer or sold pursuant to a Registration Statement and that does not directly or indirectly affect, impair,
limit or compromise the rights of other Holders of Registrable Notes may be given by Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Notes being tendered or being sold by such Holders pursuant to such Registration
Statement.
