(a) If,

(a) The Issuers and the Guarantors will be deemed not to have used their reasonable best efforts to cause the Exchange Offer Registration
Statement or the Shelf Registration Statement, as the case may be, to be declared, or to remain, effective during the requisite period if either the Issuers or any Guarantor voluntarily takes any action that would, or omits to take any action which
omission would, result in any such Registration Statement not being declared effective, or in the Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes covered thereby not being able to exchange or offer and sell such Transfer Restricted Notes during that period as

file with the SEC a supplement or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or the related Prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to the
purchasers of the Transfer Restricted Notes or Participating Broker-Dealers, such Prospectus will not contain at the time of such delivery any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the
statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or will remain so qualified. At such time as such public disclosure is otherwise made or the Issuers determine that such disclosure is not necessary, in
each case to correct any misstatement of a material fact or to include any omitted material fact, the Issuers and the Guarantors agree promptly to notify each Holder of such determination and to furnish each Holder such number of copies of the
Prospectus as amended or supplemented, as such Holder may reasonably request;

as may be required for the Indenture to be, or continue to be, so qualified in accordance with the terms of the TIA and (iii) execute, and use their reasonable best efforts to cause the Trustee to execute, all documents as may be required to

 -14-









 
requested in sales of securities or underwritten offerings and such other matters as may be reasonably requested by such Holders and underwriters; 

(iii) in connection with an underwritten registration, obtain “cold comfort” letters and updates thereof from

(vi) deliver such documents and certificates as may be reasonably requested and as are customarily delivered in similar
offerings to the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Transfer Restricted Notes being sold and the managing underwriters, if any. 
 The above shall be done at (i) the effectiveness of such Shelf Registration Statement (and each post-effective amendment thereto) and (ii) each closing under any underwriting or similar
agreement as and to the extent required thereunder; 
 (o) in the case of a Shelf Registration or if a Prospectus
is required to be delivered by any Participating Broker-Dealer in the case of an Exchange Offer, make available for inspection by representatives of the Holders of the Transfer Restricted Notes, any underwriters participating in any disposition

or any Guarantor reasonably requested by any such persons, and cause the respective officers, directors, employees, and any other agents of the Issuers and the Guarantors to supply all information reasonably requested by any such representative,

 -15-









 
Statement, and make such representatives of the Issuers and the Guarantors available for discussion of such documents as shall be reasonably requested by such persons; 

(p) if so requested by the Initial Purchasers, in the case of an Exchange Offer Registration Statement, a reasonable time

Initial Purchasers and to counsel to the Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes; 
 (q) in the case of a Shelf
Registration, a reasonable time prior to filing any Shelf Registration Statement, any Prospectus forming a part thereof, any amendment to such Shelf Registration Statement or amendment or supplement to such Prospectus, provide copies of such
documents to the Initial Purchasers, if so requested, to the Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes to be covered thereby, to counsel for such Holders designated by them and to the underwriter or underwriters of an underwritten offering of such
Transfer Restricted Notes, if any, make such changes in any such document prior to the filing thereof relating to such Holders or such Transfer Restricted Notes as the counsel to the Holders or the underwriter or underwriters reasonably request and
not file any such document in a form to which the Majority Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes covered by such Shelf Registration Statement, counsel for such Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes covered by such Shelf Registration Statement, or any
underwriter shall not have previously been advised and furnished a copy of or to which the Majority Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes covered by such Shelf Registration Statement, counsel to such Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes or any
underwriter shall reasonably object, and make the representatives of the Issuers and the Guarantors available for discussion of such document as shall be reasonably requested by such Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes, the counsel for such Holders
of Transfer Restricted Notes or any underwriter; 
 (r) in the case of a Shelf Registration, use their reasonable
best efforts to cause all Transfer Restricted Notes to be listed on any securities exchange on which similar debt securities issued by the Issuers and the Guarantors are then listed if requested by the Majority Holders of such Transfer Restricted
Notes covered by such Shelf Registration Statement, or if requested by the underwriter or underwriters of an underwritten offering of Transfer Restricted Notes, if any; 

(s) in the case of a Shelf Registration, use their reasonable best efforts to cause the Transfer Restricted Notes to be
rated by the appropriate rating agencies, if so requested by the Majority Holders of the Transfer Restricted Notes covered by such Shelf Registration Statement, or if requested by the underwriter or underwriters of an underwritten offering of
Transfer Restricted Notes, if any; 
 (t) otherwise comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC
and make available to their security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering at least 12 months which shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the 1933 Act and Rule 158 thereunder; 

  
 -16-









 (u) cooperate and assist in any filings required to be made with FINRA and,
in the case of a Shelf Registration, in the performance of any due diligence investigation by any underwriter and its counsel (including any “qualified independent underwriter” that is required to be retained in accordance with the rules
and regulations of FINRA); 
 (v) if reasonably requested by any Holder of Transfer Restricted Notes covered by a
Shelf Registration Statement, promptly include in a Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such information with respect to such Holder as such Holder reasonably requests to be included therein and make all required filings of such
Prospectus supplement or such post-effective amendment as soon as the Issuers have received notification of the matters to be so included in such filing; 
 (w) so long as any Transfer Restricted Notes remain outstanding, cause each Additional Guarantor upon such Person becoming an Additional Guarantor, to execute a joinder to this Agreement and to deliver
such joinder to the Initial Purchasers no later than five Business Days following the execution thereof; and 

(x) amend or supplement the Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement for a period of up to 180
days after the last Exchange Date (as such period may be extended pursuant to this Agreement), in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of any Exchange Notes by Participating Broker-Dealers consistent with the positions of the staff of the
SEC. The Issuers and the Guarantors agree that Participating Broker-Dealers shall be authorized to deliver such Prospectus (or, to the extent permitted by law, make available) during such period in connection with the resales contemplated by this
clause (x). 
 In the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, the Issuers and the Guarantors may (as a condition to such
Holder’s participation in the Shelf Registration) require each Holder of Transfer Restricted Notes to furnish to the Issuers and Guarantors such information regarding the Holder and the proposed distribution by such Holder of such Transfer
Restricted Notes as the Issuers and Guarantors may from time to time reasonably request in writing. 
 In the case of a Shelf
Registration Statement, each Holder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Issuers or any Guarantor of the happening of any event or the discovery of any facts, each of the kind described in Section 3(e)(iii) or
(vi) hereof, such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of Transfer Restricted Notes pursuant to a Registration Statement until such Holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by
Section 3(k) hereof, and, if so directed by the Issuers and Guarantors, such Holder will deliver to the Issuers and Guarantors (at its expense) all copies in such Holder’s possession, other than permanent file copies then in such
Holder’s possession, of the Prospectus covering such Transfer Restricted Notes current at the time of receipt of such notice. 
 If any of the Transfer Restricted Notes covered by any Shelf Registration Statement are to be sold in an underwritten offering, the underwriter or underwriters and manager or managers that will manage
such offering will be selected by the Majority Holders of such Transfer Restricted Notes to be included in such offering and shall be acceptable to the Issuers and Guarantors. No Holder of Transfer Restricted Notes may participate in any
underwritten registration 

  
 -17-









 
hereunder unless such Holder (a) agrees to sell such Holder’s Transfer Restricted 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. 

If the Issuers and the Guarantors shall give any notice to suspend the disposition of Transfer Restricted Notes pursuant to a
Registration Statement, the Issuers and the Guarantors shall extend the period during which such 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 of such Transfer Restricted Notes shall have received copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus necessary to resume such dispositions. The Issuers and the Guarantors may
give any such notice only twice during any 365-day period and any such suspensions shall not exceed 45 days for each suspension and there shall not be more than two suspensions in effect during any 365-day period. 

 

	 	4.	Indemnification; Contribution. 

 (a) The Issuers and the Guarantors agree to indemnify, jointly and severally, and hold harmless the Initial Purchasers and each of their affiliates and any other Person under common control with the
Initial Purchasers, each Holder, each Participating Broker-Dealer, each Person who participates as an underwriter (any such Person being an “Underwriter”) and each Person, if any, who controls any Holder or Underwriter within the
meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act as follows: 
 (i) against any and
all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto) pursuant to
which Exchange Notes or Transfer Restricted Notes were registered under the 1933 Act, including all documents incorporated therein by reference, any Free Writing Prospectus used in violation of this Agreement or any “issuer information”
filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the 1933 Act, or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or arising out of
any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements
therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; 
 (ii) against any and
all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or of
any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission; provided that (subject to Section 4(d) below) any such settlement is effected with the written consent of the
Issuers and the Guarantors; and 

  
 -18-









 (iii) against any and all expense whatsoever, as incurred (including the
fees and disbursements of counsel chosen by any indemnified party), reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened,
or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, to the extent that any such expense is not paid under subparagraph (ii) above; 

provided, however, that this indemnity agreement shall not apply to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out
of any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information concerning any Holder or Underwriter furnished to the Issuers by the Holder or Underwriter expressly for use
in a Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or any Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto); and provided, further, that the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection shall not inure to the benefit of any
Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer from whom the person asserting any such losses, claims, damages or liabilities purchased the Initial Notes concerned, to the extent that a prospectus relating to such Initial Notes was required to be delivered
by such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer under the 1933 Act in connection with such purchase and any such loss, claim, damage or liability of such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer results from the fact that there was not sent or given to
such person, at or prior to the sale of such Initial Notes to such person, a copy of such prospectus if the Issuers have previously furnished copies thereof to such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer. 

(b) Each Holder, severally, but not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Issuers, the Guarantors, each Underwriter and the
other selling Holders, and each of their respective directors and officers, and each Person, if any, who controls the Issuers, any Guarantor , any Underwriter or any other selling Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or
Section 20 of the 1934 Act, against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense described in the indemnity contained in Section 4(a) hereof, as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged
untrue statements or omissions, made in the Shelf Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or any Prospectus included therein (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with written information with respect
to such Holder furnished to the Issuers and the Guarantors by such Holder expressly for use in the Shelf Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or such Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto); provided, however,
that no such Holder shall be liable for any claims hereunder in excess of the amount of net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Transfer Restricted Notes pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement. 

(c) Each indemnified party shall give notice as promptly as reasonably practicable to each indemnifying party of any action or proceeding
commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but failure so to notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability hereunder to the extent it is not materially prejudiced as a
result thereof and in any event shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have otherwise than on account of this indemnity agreement. An indemnifying party may participate at its own expense in the defense of such action; provided,
however, that counsel to the indemnifying party shall not (except with the consent of the indemnified party) also be counsel to the indemnified party. In no event shall the indemnifying party or parties be liable for the fees


  
 -19-









 
and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel) separate from their own counsel for all indemnified parties in connection with any one action or separate but similar or
related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any
judgment with respect to any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever in respect of which indemnification or contribution could be sought under this
Section 4 (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out
of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim 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) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 4, is for any reason unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless
an indemnified party in respect of any losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate amount of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by
such indemnified party, as incurred, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Issuers and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, in connection with the
statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. 
 The relative fault of the Issuers and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Holders and the Initial Purchasers on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any such
untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Issuers, the Guarantors, the Holders or the Initial Purchasers and the parties’ relative
intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. 
 The Issuers, the
Guarantors, the Holders and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 4 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Initial Purchasers were treated as one entity
for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 4. The aggregate amount of losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by
an indemnified party and referred to above in this Section 4 shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any
investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any 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
Section 4, each Person, if any, who controls an Initial Purchaser or Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such Initial Purchaser or
Holder, and each director of the 

  
 -20-









 
Issuers or any Guarantor , and each Person, if any, who controls the Issuers or any Guarantor within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act shall have
the same rights to contribution as the Issuers and the Guarantors. The Initial Purchasers’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 4 are several in proportion to the principal amount of Initial Notes set forth
opposite their respective names in Schedule A to the Purchase Agreement and not joint. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 4, in no event shall a Holder be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the
total price at which all of the Initial Notes sold by such Holder exceeds the amount of any damages that such Holder has otherwise been required to pay under Section 4(b) hereof. 

The remedies provided for in this Section 4 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies that may otherwise
be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity. 
 The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this
Section 4 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of the Initial Purchasers or any Holder or any Person controlling
any Initial Purchaser or any Holder, or by or on behalf of the Issuers or the Guarantors or the officers or directors of or any Person controlling the Issuers or the Guarantors, (iii) acceptance of any of the Exchange Notes and (iv) any
sale of Transfer Restricted Notes pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement; provided, however, that the indemnity and contribution rights provided for, in this Section 4 shall not extend to any losses, liabilities or
other damages arising out of actions occurring after the termination of this Agreement. 
  

	 	5.	Miscellaneous. 


5.1 No Inconsistent Agreements. The Issuers and the Guarantors have not entered into, and the Issuers and the Guarantors
will not after the date of this Agreement enter into, any agreement which is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof. The rights granted to
the Holders hereunder do not and will not for the term of this Agreement in any way conflict with the rights granted to the holders of the Issuers’ or Guarantors’ other issued and outstanding securities under any such agreements.

 5.2 Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of this sentence, may
not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, unless the Issuers and the Guarantors have obtained the written consent of the Majority Holders affected by such amendment,
modification, supplement, waiver or departure. 
 5.3 Notices. All notices and other communications provided for
or permitted hereunder shall be made in writing by hand delivery, registered first-class mail, telex, telecopier, or any courier guaranteeing overnight delivery (a) if to a Holder, at the most current address given by such Holder to the Issuers
by means of a notice given in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.4, which address initially, and until so changed, is the address set forth in the Purchase Agreement with respect to the Initial Purchasers; and (b) if
to the Issuers and the Guarantors, 

  
 -21-









 
initially at the Issuers’ address set forth in the Purchase Agreement, and thereafter at such other address of which notice is given in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 5.4. 
 All such notices and communications shall be deemed to have been duly given: at the time delivered
by hand, if personally delivered; two Business Days after being deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, if mailed; when answered back, if telexed; when receipt is acknowledged, if telecopied; and on the next Business Day if timely delivered to an
air courier guaranteeing overnight delivery. 
 Copies of all such notices, demands, or other communications shall be
concurrently delivered by the person giving the same to the Trustee under the Indenture at the address specified therein. 
 5.4
Successor 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 Notes in violation of the terms of the Purchase Agreement or the Indenture. If any transferee of any
Holder shall acquire Transfer Restricted Notes, in any manner, whether by operation of law or otherwise, such Transfer Restricted Notes shall be held subject to all of the terms of this Agreement, and by taking and holding such Transfer Restricted
Notes 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, including the restrictions on resale set forth in this Agreement and, if applicable, the Purchase
Agreement, and such person shall be entitled to receive the benefits hereof. The Initial Purchasers (in their capacity as Initial Purchasers) shall have no liability or obligation to the Issuers or the Guarantors 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 
 5.5
Third Party Beneficiaries. The Initial Purchasers (even if the Initial Purchasers are not Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes) shall be third party beneficiaries to the agreements made hereunder between the Issuers and the Guarantors,
on the one hand, and the Holders, on the other hand, and shall have the right to enforce such agreements directly to the extent they deem such enforcement necessary or advisable to protect their rights or the rights of Holders hereunder. Each Holder
of Transfer Restricted Notes shall be a third party beneficiary to the agreements made hereunder between the Issuers and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, 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 hereunder. 
 5.6
Specific Enforcement. Without limiting the remedies available to the Initial Purchasers and the Holders, the Issuers and the Guarantors acknowledge that any failure by the Issuers or the Guarantors to comply with their obligations
under Sections 2.1 through 2.4 hereof may result in material irreparable injury to the Initial Purchasers or the Holders for which there is no adequate remedy at law, that it would not be possible to measure damages for such injuries
precisely and that, in the event of any such failure, the Initial Purchasers or any Holder may obtain such relief as may be required to specifically enforce the Issuers’ and Guarantors’ obligations under Sections 2.1 through
2.4 hereof.

and 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. This Agreement may be executed by facsimile signature.

 5.8 Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not limit or
