	 	2.	Exchange Offer 

 (a) Unless the Exchange Offer would violate applicable
law or any applicable interpretation of the staff of the SEC, the Issuers and the Guarantors shall use commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC a Registration Statement (the “Exchange Offer Registration Statement”) on an
appropriate registration form with respect to a registered offer (the “Exchange Offer”) to exchange any and all of the applicable series of Registrable Securities for a like aggregate principal amount of debt securities of the
Issuers (the “Exchange Notes”), guaranteed, to the extent applicable, on a secured senior basis by the Guarantors (the “New Guarantees” and, together with the Exchange Notes, the “Exchange
Securities”), that are identical in all material respects to the applicable series of Notes except that (i) the Exchange Notes shall contain no restrictive legend thereon, (ii) interest thereon shall accrue from the later of
(x) the last date on which interest was paid on such series of Notes or, if no such interest has been paid, from the Issue Date or (y) if such Note is surrendered for exchange on a date in a period that includes the record date for an
interest payment date to occur on or after the date of such Exchange Offer and as to which interest will be paid, the date of such interest payment date, (iii) the Exchange Securities will not contain provisions for the Additional Interest
contemplated in Section 5 below, and (iv) the Exchange Securities shall be entitled to the benefits of the Indenture or a trust indenture which is identical in all material respects to the Indenture (other than such changes to the
Indenture or any such identical trust indenture as are necessary to comply with the TIA) and which, in either case, has been qualified under the TIA. The Exchange Offer shall comply with all applicable tender offer rules and regulations under the
Exchange Act and other applicable laws. The Issuers and the Guarantors shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (x) prepare and file with the SEC the Exchange Offer Registration Statement with respect to the Exchange Offer; (y) keep
the Exchange Offer open for at least 20 Business Days (or longer if required by applicable law) after the date that notice of the Exchange Offer is delivered to Holders; and (z) consummate the Exchange Offer on or prior to the day that is five
years after the Merger Date. 
 Each Holder (including, without limitation, each Participating Broker-Dealer) that
participates in the Exchange Offer, as a condition to participation 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 Registrable Securities tendered are being acquired in the ordinary course of business of the Person receiving such Exchange Securities, whether or not such recipient is such Holder itself; (ii) at the time of
the commencement or consummation of the applicable 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 Securities Act) of the applicable Exchange Securities in violation of the provisions of the Securities Act; (iii) neither the Holder nor, to the actual knowledge of such Holder, any
other Person receiving Exchange Securities from such Holder is an “affiliate” (as defined in Rule 405) of an Issuer or, if it is an affiliate of an Issuer, it will comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the
Securities Act to the extent applicable and will provide information to be included in the Shelf Registration Statement in accordance with Section 6 hereof in order to have their Securities included in the Shelf Registration Statement and
benefit from the provisions regarding Additional Interest in Section 5 hereof; (iv) if such Holder is not a broker-dealer, neither such Holder nor, to the actual knowledge of such Holder, any other Person receiving Exchange Securities from
such Holder is engaging in or 

  
 -5- 








 
intends to engage in a distribution of the Exchange Securities; and (v) if such Holder is a Participating Broker-Dealer, such Holder has acquired such Registrable Securities for its own
account in exchange for Securities that were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities and that it will comply with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act (including, but not limited to, the prospectus
delivery requirements thereunder). 
 Upon consummation of the Exchange Offer in accordance with this Section 2, the
provisions of this Agreement shall continue to apply, mutatis mutandis, solely with respect to Registrable Securities that are Private Exchange Notes (and the related Guarantees) and Exchange Securities as to which
Section 2(d)(iv) is applicable and Exchange Securities held by Participating Broker-Dealers, and the Issuers shall have no further obligation to register Registrable Securities (other than Private Exchange Notes (and the related Guarantees) and
Exchange Securities as to which clause 2(d)(iv) hereof applies) pursuant to Section 3 hereof. 
 (b) The Issuers shall
include within the Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement a section entitled “Plan of Distribution,” which shall contain a summary statement of the positions taken or policies made by the staff of the SEC 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 (a
“Participating Broker-Dealer”), whether such positions or policies have been publicly disseminated by the staff of the SEC or such positions or policies represent the prevailing views of the staff of the SEC. Such “Plan of
Distribution” section shall also expressly permit, 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 means by which
Participating Broker-Dealers may resell the Exchange Securities in compliance with the Securities Act. 
 The Issuers and the
Guarantors shall use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Exchange Offer Registration Statement effective and to amend and supplement the Prospectus contained therein in order to permit such Prospectus to be lawfully delivered by all Persons
subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act for such period of time as is necessary to comply with applicable law in connection with any resale of the Exchange Securities; provided, however, that such period
shall not be required to exceed 90 days, such longer period if extended pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 6 hereof (the “Applicable Period”). 

If, prior to consummation of the Exchange Offer, the Initial Purchasers hold any Notes acquired by them that have the status of
an unsold allotment in the initial distribution, the Issuers, upon the request of the Initial Purchasers, shall simultaneously with the delivery of the Exchange Notes issue and deliver to the Initial Purchasers, in exchange (the “Private
Exchange”) for such Notes held by any such Initial Purchasers, a like principal amount of the applicable series of notes (the “Private Exchange Notes”) of the Issuers, guaranteed by the Guarantors, if applicable, that are
identical in all material respects to the Exchange Notes except for the placement of a restrictive legend on such Private Exchange Notes. The Private Exchange Notes shall be issued pursuant to the same indenture as the Exchange Notes and bear the
same CUSIP number as the Exchange Notes if permitted by the CUSIP Service Bureau. 
 In connection with the Exchange Offer,
the Issuers shall: 
 (1) deliver, or cause to be delivered, to each Holder of record entitled to participate in the Exchange
Offer a copy of the Prospectus forming part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, together with an appropriate letter of transmittal and related documents; 

  
 -6- 








 (2) use their commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Exchange Offer open for
at least 20 Business Days from the date that notice of the Exchange Offer is delivered to Holders of the applicable series of Notes (or longer if required by applicable law); 

(3) [Reserved]; 

(4) permit Holders to withdraw tendered Notes at any time prior to the close of business, New York time, on the last Business
Day on which the Exchange Offer remains open; and 
 (5) otherwise comply in all material respects with all laws, rules and
regulations applicable to the Exchange Offer. 
 As soon as practicable after the expiration of the Exchange Offer and any
Private Exchange, the Issuers shall: 
 (1) accept for exchange all Registrable Securities validly tendered and not validly
withdrawn pursuant to the Exchange Offer and any Private Exchange; 
 (2) deliver to the applicable Trustee for cancellation
all Registrable Securities so accepted for exchange; and 
 (3) cause the applicable Trustee to authenticate and deliver
promptly to each Holder of Notes, Exchange Notes or Private Exchange Notes, as the case may be, equal in principal amount to the applicable series of Notes of such Holder so accepted for exchange; provided that, in the case of any Notes held
in global form by a depositary, authentication and delivery to such depositary of one or more replacement Notes of the applicable series 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. 
 The Exchange Offer and the Private Exchange shall
not be subject to any conditions, other than that (i) the Exchange Offer or Private Exchange, as the case may be, 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 which might materially impair the ability of the Issuers to proceed with the Exchange Offer or the Private Exchange, and no material adverse development shall have
occurred in any existing action or proceeding 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 or Private Exchange; and
(iv) the accuracy of customary representations of the Holders and other representations as may reasonably be necessary under applicable SEC rules, regulations or interpretations, the satisfaction by the Holders of customary conditions relating
to the delivery of Exchange Securities and the Private Exchange Notes (and related guarantees) and the execution and delivery of customary documentation relating to the Exchange Offer. 

(c) The Exchange Securities and the Private Exchange Notes (and related guarantees) shall be issued under (i) the
Indenture or (ii) an indenture identical in all material respects to the Indenture and which, in either case, has been qualified under the TIA or is exempt from such qualification and shall provide that the Exchange Securities shall not be
subject to the transfer restrictions set forth in the Indenture. The Indenture or such indenture shall provide that the Exchange Notes, the Private Exchange Notes and the Notes of a series outstanding shall vote


  
 -7- 








 
and consent together on all matters as one class and that none of the Exchange Notes, the Private Exchange Notes or the Notes outstanding of a series will have the right to vote or consent as a
separate class on any matter. 
 (d) If, (i) because of any change in law or in currently prevailing interpretations of
the staff of the SEC, the Issuers are not permitted to effect the Exchange Offer, (ii) the Exchange Offer is not consummated within five years of the Merger Date, (iii) any holder of Private Exchange Notes so requests in writing to the
Issuers at any time within 30 days after the consummation of the Exchange Offer, or (iv) in the case of any Holder that participates in the Exchange Offer, such Holder does not receive Exchange Securities on the date of the exchange that may 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 Issuers within the meaning of the Securities Act) and so notifies the Issuers within 30 days after such
Holder first becomes aware of such restrictions, in the case of each of clauses (i) to and including (iv) of this sentence, then the Issuers shall promptly (but, for the avoidance of doubt, no earlier than the date that is five years after
the Merger Date) deliver to the applicable Trustee (to deliver to the Holders of the applicable series of Notes) written notice thereof (the “Shelf Notice”) and shall file a Shelf Registration pursuant to Section 3 hereof. 

 

	 	3.	Shelf Registration 

 If at any time a Shelf Notice is delivered as
contemplated by Section 2(d) hereof, then: 
 (a) Shelf Registration. The Issuers shall 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 Registrable Securities (the “Initial Shelf Registration”). The Issuers and the
Guarantors shall use commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC the Initial Shelf Registration on or prior to the Filing Date. The Initial Shelf Registration shall be on Form S-1, Form S-3 or another appropriate form permitting
registration of such Registrable Securities for resale by Holders in the manner or manners designated by them (including, without limitation, one or more underwritten offerings). 

The Issuers and the Guarantors shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Shelf Registration to be declared
effective under the Securities Act on or prior to the Effectiveness Date and to keep the Initial Shelf Registration continuously effective under the Securities Act until the earliest of (i) the date that is seven years after the Merger Date,
(ii) such shorter period ending when all Registrable Securities covered by the Initial Shelf Registration have been sold in the manner set forth and as contemplated in the Initial Shelf Registration or, if applicable, a Subsequent Shelf
Registration or (iii) the date upon which all Registrable Securities are resold to the public pursuant to Rule 144 (the “Effectiveness Period”); provided, however, that the Effectiveness Period in respect of the
Initial Shelf Registration shall be extended to the extent required to permit dealers to comply with the applicable prospectus delivery requirements of Rule 174 under the Securities Act and as otherwise provided herein. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in this Agreement, at any time, the Issuers may delay the filing of any Initial Shelf Registration Statement or delay or suspend the effectiveness thereof, for a reasonable period of time, but not in excess of 90 consecutive days or
more than three (3) times during any calendar year (each, a “Shelf Suspension Period”), if the Boards of Directors of the Issuers determine reasonably and in good faith that the filing of any such Initial Shelf Registration
Statement or the continuing effectiveness thereof would require the disclosure of non-public material information that, in the reasonable judgment of the Boards of Directors of the Issuers, would be detrimental to the Issuers if so disclosed or
would otherwise materially adversely affect a financing, acquisition, disposition, merger or other material transaction or such disclosure is required by applicable law. 

  
 -8- 








 Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, neither the Issuers
nor the Guarantors shall be obligated to file a Shelf Registration, or cause a Shelf Registration to be effective or continue to be effective, prior to the date that is five years after the Merger Date. 

(b) Withdrawal of Stop Orders; Subsequent Shelf Registrations. If the Initial Shelf Registration or any Subsequent Shelf
Registration ceases to be effective for any reason at any time during the Effectiveness Period (other than because of the sale of all of the Securities registered thereunder or a Shelf Suspension Period), the Issuers and the Guarantors shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the prompt withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness thereof, and in any event shall file an additional Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 415 covering all of the Registrable Securities
covered by and not sold under the Initial Shelf Registration or an earlier Subsequent Shelf Registration (each, a “Subsequent Shelf Registration”). If a Subsequent Shelf Registration is filed, the Issuers shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to cause the Subsequent Shelf Registration to be declared effective under the Securities Act 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 Registration. 
 (c) Supplements and
Amendments. The Issuers shall promptly supplement and amend the 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 by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Securities (or their counsel) covered by such Registration Statement with respect to the information included therein with respect to one or more
of such Holders, or, if reasonably requested by any underwriter of such Registrable Securities, with respect to the information included therein with respect to such underwriter. 

 

	 	4.	[Reserved]. 

  

	 	5.	Additional Interest 

 (a) The Issuers, the Guarantors and the Initial
Purchasers agree that the Holders will suffer damages if the Issuers or the Guarantors fail to fulfill their respective obligations under Section 2 or Section 3 hereof and that it would not be feasible to ascertain the extent of such
damages with precision. Accordingly, the Issuers and the Guarantors agree to pay, jointly and severally, as liquidated damages, additional interest on the Registrable Securities of the applicable series of Notes (“Additional
Interest”) if (A) the Issuers have neither (i) exchanged Exchange Securities for all Securities of such series validly tendered in accordance with the terms of the Exchange Offer nor (ii) had a Shelf Registration Statement
declared effective, in either case on or prior to the day that is five years after the Merger Date or (B) if applicable, a Shelf Registration has been declared effective and such Shelf Registration ceases to be effective at any time during the
Effectiveness Period (other than because of the sale of all of the Securities registered thereunder), then Additional Interest shall accrue on the principal amount of the applicable series of Notes at a rate of 0.25% per annum (which rate will
be increased by an additional 0.25% per annum for each subsequent 90-day period that such Additional Interest continues to accrue, provided that the rate at which such Additional Interest accrues may in no event exceed 1.00% per
annum) (such Additional Interest to be calculated by the Issuers) commencing on the (x) the 

  
 -9- 








 
day after the date that is five years after the Merger Date, in the case of (A) above or (y) the day such Shelf Registration (if required) ceases to be effective in the case of
(B) above; provided, however, that upon the exchange of the Exchange Securities for all Securities of such series tendered (in the case of clause (A) of this Section 5), or upon the effectiveness of the applicable Shelf
Registration Statement which had ceased to remain effective (in the case of (B) of this Section 5), Additional Interest on the Notes of such series in respect of which such events relate as a result of such clause (or the relevant
subclause thereof), as the case may be, shall cease to accrue. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 5, the Issuers shall not be obligated to pay Additional Interest provided in Section 5(a)(B) during a Shelf Suspension
Period permitted by Section 3(a) hereof; provided, that no Additional Interest shall accrue on the Notes following the seventh anniversary of the Merger Date. 

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, neither the Issuers nor the Guarantors shall be obligated to pay
any Additional Interest, and no Additional Interest shall accrue, on any series of Notes prior to the date that is five years after the Merger Date. 

(b) The Issuers shall notify the applicable Trustee within three business days after each and every date on which an event
occurs in respect of which Additional Interest is required to be paid (an “Event Date”). Any amounts of Additional Interest due pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 5 will be payable in cash semiannually on the interest
payment dates stated in the Indenture with respect to the applicable series of Notes (to the holders of record of such series of Notes on the record dates stated in the Indenture with respect to such series of Notes immediately preceding such
dates), commencing with the first such date occurring after any such Additional Interest commences to accrue with respect to such series of Notes. The amount of Additional Interest will be determined by the Issuers by multiplying the applicable
Additional Interest rate by the principal amount of the applicable series of Registrable Securities, 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. 
  


	 	6.	Registration Procedures 

 In connection with the filing of any
Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2 or 3 hereof, the Issuers shall effect such registrations to permit the sale of the 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 Issuers hereunder, the Issuers and the Guarantors shall: 

(a) Prepare and file with the SEC (prior to the applicable Filing Date in the case of a Shelf Registration), a Registration
Statement or Registration Statements as prescribed by Section 2 or 3 hereof, and use reasonable best efforts to cause each such Registration Statement to become effective and remain effective as provided herein; provided, however,
that if (1) such filing is pursuant to Section 3 hereof or (2) a Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer 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 Securities during the Applicable Period relating thereto from whom the Issuers have received prior written notice that it will be a Participating Broker-Dealer in the Exchange Offer, before
filing any Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto, the Issuers shall furnish to and afford counsel for the Holders of the Registrable Securities covered by 

  
 -10- 








 
such Registration Statement (with respect to a Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 3 hereof) or counsel for such Participating Broker-Dealer (with respect to any such
Registration Statement), as the case may be, and counsel to the managing underwriters, if any, 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 three business days prior to such filing). The Issuers shall not file any Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto if the Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement, their counsel, or the managing underwriters, if any, shall reasonably object. 

(b) Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and post-effective amendments to each Shelf Registration Statement or
Exchange Offer Registration Statement, as the case may be, as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness of such Registration Statement during the Effectiveness Period (other than during a Shelf Suspension Period), the Applicable Period or until
consummation of the Exchange Offer, 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; and comply with the provisions
of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act applicable to it 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 an Participating Broker-Dealer covered by any such Prospectus in all material respects. The Issuers and the Guarantors shall be deemed not to have used commercially reasonable efforts to keep a Registration Statement
effective if they voluntarily take any action that is reasonably expected to result in selling Holders of the Registrable Securities covered thereby or Participating Broker-Dealers seeking to sell Exchange Securities not being able to sell such
Registrable Securities or such Exchange Securities during that period unless such action is required by applicable law or permitted by this Agreement. 

(c) If (1) a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to Section 3 hereof or (2) a Prospectus contained in the
Exchange Offer 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 Securities during the Applicable Period relating thereto
from whom the Issuers have received written notice that it will be a Participating Broker-Dealer in the Exchange Offer, notify the selling Holders of Registrable Securities (with respect to a Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 3
hereof), or each such Participating Broker-Dealer (with respect to any such Registration Statement), as the case may be, their counsel and the managing underwriters, if any, promptly (but in any event within three Business Days), and confirm such
notice in writing, (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 under the
Securities Act (including in such notice a written statement that any Holder may, upon request, obtain, at the sole expense of the Issuers, one conformed copy (which may be in electronic form) 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 preliminary 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


  
 -11- 








 
with sales of the Registrable Securities or resales of Exchange Securities by Participating Broker-Dealers the representations and warranties of the Issuers contained in any agreement (including
any underwriting agreement) contemplated by Section 6(m) hereof cease to be true and correct, (iv) of the receipt by the Issuers of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of a
Registration Statement or any of the Registrable Securities or the Exchange Securities 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 that makes any statement made in such Registration Statement or related Prospectus untrue in any material respect or that requires the making of
any changes in or amendments or supplements to such Registration Statement or Prospectus 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 or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and that in the case of the Prospectus, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the
statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and (vi) of the Issuers’ determination that a post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement would be appropriate. 

(d) Use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration
Statement or of any order preventing or suspending the use of a Prospectus or suspending the qualification (or exemption from qualification) of any of the Registrable Securities or the Exchange Securities to be sold by any Participating
Broker-Dealer, for sale in any jurisdiction. 
 (e) If a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to Section 3 and if
requested during the Effectiveness Period by the managing underwriter or underwriters (if any) or the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Securities being sold in connection with an underwritten offering,
(i) as promptly as practicable incorporate in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such information as the managing underwriter or underwriters (if any), such Holders or counsel for either of them reasonably request to be
included therein, (ii) make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or such post-effective amendment as soon as practicable after the Issuers have received notification of the matters to be incorporated in such prospectus supplement
or post-effective amendment, and (iii) supplement or make amendments to such Registration Statement. 
 (f) If
(1) a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to Section 3 hereof, or (2) a Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer 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 Securities during the Applicable Period, furnish to each selling Holder of Registrable Securities (with respect to a Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 3 hereof) and to
each such Participating Broker-Dealer who so requests (with respect to any such Registration Statement) and to its counsel and each managing underwriter, if any, at the sole expense of the Issuers, one conformed copy (which may be in electronic
form) of the Registration Statement or Registration Statements and each post-effective amendment thereto, including financial statements and schedules, and, if requested, all documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference
and all exhibits. 

  
 -12- 








 (g) If (1) a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to Section 3 hereof,
or (2) a Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer 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 Securities
during the Applicable Period, deliver to each selling Holder of Registrable Securities (with respect to a Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 3 hereof), or each such Participating Broker-Dealer (with respect to any such
Registration Statement), as the case may be, its counsel, and the underwriters, if any, at the sole expense of the Issuers, as many copies (which may be in electronic form) of the Prospectus or Prospectuses (including each form of preliminary
prospectus) and each amendment or supplement thereto and any documents incorporated by reference therein as such Persons may reasonably request; and, subject to the last paragraph of this Section 6, the Issuers hereby consent to the use of the
Prospectus contained in any Shelf Registration or Exchange Offer Registration Statement and each amendment or supplement thereto by each of the selling Holders of Registrable Securities 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 Securities covered by, or the sale by Participating Broker-Dealers of the Exchange Securities pursuant to, such Prospectus and
any amendment or supplement thereto. 
 (h) Prior to any public offering of Registrable Securities or any delivery of a
Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Securities during the Applicable Period, use reasonable best efforts to register or qualify, and to cooperate with the
selling Holders of Registrable Securities or each such Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, the managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, and their respective counsel in connection with the registration or qualification (or exemption
from such registration or qualification) of such Registrable Securities for offer and sale under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions within the United States as any selling Holder, Participating Broker-Dealer, or the managing
underwriter or underwriters reasonably request in writing; provided, however, that where Exchange Securities held by Participating Broker-Dealers or Registrable Securities are offered other than through an underwritten offering, the
Issuers agree to cause their counsel to perform Blue Sky investigations and file registrations and qualifications required to be filed pursuant to this Section 6(h), keep each such registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom)
effective during the period such Registration Statement is required to be kept effective and do any and all other acts or things necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Exchange Securities held by Participating
Broker-Dealers or the Registrable Securities covered by the applicable Registration Statement; provided, however, that the Issuers shall not be required to (A) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where they are
not then so qualified, (B) take any action that would subject them to general service of process in any such jurisdiction where they are not then so subject or (C) subject themselves to taxation in any such jurisdiction where they are not
then so subject. 
 (i) If a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to Section 3 hereof, cooperate with the selling
Holders of Registrable Securities and the managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Securities to be sold, which certificates shall not bear any
restrictive legends and shall be in a form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company; and enable such Registrable Securities to be in such denominations (subject to applicable requirements contained in the Indenture) and registered in
such names as the managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, or Holders may request. 

  
 -13- 








 (j) Use reasonable best efforts to cause the Registrable Securities covered by
the Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other U.S. governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary to enable the seller or sellers thereof or the underwriter or underwriters, if any, to consummate the
disposition of such Registrable Securities, except as may be required solely as a consequence of the nature of such selling Holder’s business, in which case the Issuers will cooperate in all respects with the filing of such Registration
Statement and the granting of such approvals. 
 (k) If (1) a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to Section 3
hereof, or (2) a Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer 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
Securities during the Applicable Period, upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by paragraph 6(c)(v) or 6(c)(vi) hereof, as promptly as practicable prepare and (subject to Section 6(a) hereof) file with the SEC, at the sole expense of
the Issuers, a supplement or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or a supplement to 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 Registrable Securities being sold thereunder (with respect to a Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 3 hereof) or to the purchasers of the Exchange Securities to whom such Prospectus will be delivered by a
Participating Broker-Dealer (with respect to any such Registration Statement), any such Prospectus will not contain an 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. 
 (l) Prior to the effective date of the first
Registration Statement relating to the Registrable Securities, (i) provide the applicable Trustee with certificates for the Registrable Securities in a form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company and (ii) provide a CUSIP
number for the applicable series of Registrable Securities. 
 (m) In connection with any underwritten offering of
Registrable Securities pursuant to a Shelf Registration, enter into an underwriting agreement as is customary in underwritten offerings of debt securities similar to the Securities (including, without limitation, a customary condition to the
obligations of the underwriters that the underwriters shall have received “cold comfort” letters and updates thereof in form, scope and substance reasonably satisfactory to the managing underwriter or underwriters from the independent
certified public accountants of the Issuers (and, if necessary, any other independent certified public accountants of the Issuers, or of any business acquired by the Issuers, for which financial statements and financial data are, or are required to
be, included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement), addressed to representatives 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 Securities), and take all such other actions as are reasonably requested by the managing underwriter or underwriters in order to expedite or facilitate the registration or
the disposition of such Registrable Securities and, in such connection, (i) make such representations and warranties to, and covenants with, the underwriters with respect to the business of the Issuers (including any acquired business,
properties or entity, if applicable), and the Registration Statement, Prospectus 

  
 -14- 








 
and documents, if any, incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein, in each case, as are customarily made by Issuers to underwriters in underwritten offerings of debt
securities similar to the Securities; (ii) obtain a written opinion of counsel to the Issuers, and written updates thereof in form, scope and substance reasonably satisfactory to the managing underwriter or underwriters, addressed to
representatives of the underwriters covering the matters customarily covered in opinions reasonably requested in underwritten offerings; and (iii) if an underwriting agreement is entered into, the same shall contain indemnification provisions
and procedures substantially consistent with those set forth in Section 8 hereof, taken as a whole (or such other provisions and procedures reasonably acceptable to Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the applicable series of
Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement and the managing underwriter or underwriters or agents, if any). The above shall be done at each closing under such underwriting agreement, or as and to the extent required thereunder.

 (n) If (1) a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to Section 3 hereof, or (2) a Prospectus contained in the
Exchange Offer 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 Securities during the Applicable Period, make available
for inspection by any Initial Purchaser, any selling Holder of such Registrable Securities being sold (with respect to a Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 3 hereof), or each such Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be,
any underwriter participating in any such disposition of Registrable Securities, if any, and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by any such selling Holder or each such Participating Broker-Dealer (with respect to any such Registration
Statement), as the case may be, or underwriter who, in each case, shall certify to the Issuers that they have, or, in the case of any attorney, accountant or other agent, that they are acting on behalf of one or more Selling Holders, Participating
Broker-Dealers or underwriters, as applicable, who has a current intention to sell Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration (any such Initial Purchasers, Holders, Participating Broker-Dealers, underwriters, attorneys, accountants or
agents, collectively, the “Inspectors”), upon written request, at the offices where normally kept, during reasonable business hours, all pertinent financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and instruments of the
Issuers and subsidiaries of the Issuers (collectively, the “Records”), as shall be reasonably necessary, in the opinion of counsel for such Inspector, to enable them to exercise any applicable due diligence responsibilities, and
cause the officers, directors and employees of the Issuers and any of its subsidiaries to supply all information (“Information”) reasonably requested by any such Inspector in connection with such due diligence responsibilities. Each
Inspector shall agree in writing that it will keep the Records and Information confidential, to use the Information only for due diligence purposes, to abstain from using the Information as the basis for any market transactions in securities of the
Issuers, the Guarantors or any of their respective subsidiaries and that it will not disclose any of the Records or Information that the Issuers determine, in good faith, to be confidential and notifies the Inspectors in writing are confidential
unless (i) the disclosure of such Records or Information is necessary to avoid or correct a material misstatement or material omission in such Registration Statement or Prospectus, (ii) the release of such Records or Information is ordered
pursuant to a subpoena or other order from a court of competent jurisdiction, (iii) disclosure of such Records or Information is necessary or advisable, in the opinion of counsel for any Inspector, in connection with any action, claim, suit or
proceeding, directly or indirectly, involving or potentially involving such Inspector and arising out of, based upon, relating to, or involving this Agreement or the Purchase 

  
 -15- 








 
Agreement, or any transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or arising hereunder or thereunder, or (iv) the information in such Records or Information has been made generally available to
the public other than by an Inspector or an “affiliate” (as defined in Rule 405) thereof; provided, however, that prior notice shall be provided as soon as practicable to the Issuers of the potential disclosure of any
information by such Inspector pursuant to clauses (i) or (ii) of this sentence to permit the Issuers to obtain a protective order (or waive the provisions of this paragraph (n)) and that such Inspector shall take such actions as are
reasonably necessary to protect the confidentiality of such information (if practicable) to the extent such action is otherwise not inconsistent with, an impairment of or in derogation of the rights and interests of the Holder or any Inspector. 

(o) Provide an indenture trustee for the Registrable Securities or the Exchange Securities, as the case may be, and cause the
Indenture or the trust indentures provided for in Section 2(a) hereof, as the case may be, to be qualified under the TIA not later than the effective date of the first Registration Statement relating to the Registrable Securities; and in
connection therewith, cooperate with the trustee under any such indentures and the Holders of the Registrable Securities, to effect such changes (if any) to such indentures as may be required for such indentures to be so qualified in accordance with
the terms of the TIA; and execute, and use its commercially reasonable best 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. 
 (p) Comply in all material respects with all applicable rules
and regulations of the SEC and make generally available to its securityholders with regard to any applicable Registration Statement, a consolidated earning statement satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158
thereunder (or any similar rule promulgated under the Securities Act) no later than 45 days after the end of any fiscal quarter (or 90 days 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 Securities 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 Denali Holding Inc., after the effective date of a Registration Statement, which statements shall cover said 12-month periods; provided that this requirement shall be deemed satisfied by the Issuers complying with Section 4.03 of the
Indenture. 
 (q) Upon consummation of the Exchange Offer or a Private Exchange, obtain an opinion of counsel to the Issuers,
in a form customary for underwritten transactions, addressed to the applicable Trustee for the benefit of all Holders of Registrable Securities participating in the Exchange Offer or the Private Exchange, as the case may be, that the Exchange
Securities or Private Exchange Notes (and the related Guarantees), as the case may be, the related guarantee, if applicable, and the related indenture constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Issuers and the Guarantors, as applicable,
enforceable against the Issuers and the Guarantors, as applicable, in accordance with their respective terms, subject to customary exceptions and qualifications. If the Exchange Offer or a Private Exchange is to be consummated, upon delivery of the
Registrable Securities by Holders to the Issuers (or to such other Person as directed by the Issuers), in exchange for the applicable series of Exchange Securities or the Private Exchange Notes (and the related Guarantees), as the case may be, the
Issuers shall mark, or cause to be marked, on such Registrable Securities that such Registrable Securities are being cancelled in exchange for the applicable series of Exchange Securities or the Private Exchange Notes (and the related Guarantees),
as the case may be; in no event shall such Registrable Securities be marked as paid or otherwise satisfied. 

  
 -16- 








 (r) Use reasonable efforts to cooperate with each seller of Registrable
Securities covered by any Registration Statement and each underwriter, if any, participating in the disposition of such Registrable Securities and their respective counsel in connection with any filings required to be made with the Financial
Industry Regulatory Authority Inc. (“FINRA”). 
 (s) Use reasonable efforts to take all other steps
reasonably necessary to effect the registration of the Exchange Securities and/or Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement contemplated hereby. 

The Issuers may require each seller of Registrable Securities as to which any registration is being effected to furnish to the
Issuers such information regarding such seller and the distribution of such Registrable Securities as the Issuers may, from time to time, reasonably request. The Issuers may exclude from such registration the Registrable 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 Issuers all information required to be
disclosed in order to make the information previously furnished to the Issuers by such seller so that any prospectus relating to such Shelf Registration shall not contain, with respect to such Seller, an untrue statement of a material fact or omit
to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. 

If any such Registration Statement refers to any Holder by name or otherwise as the holder of any securities of the Issuers,
then such Holder shall have the right to require (i) the insertion therein of language, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Holder, to the effect that the holding by such Holder of such securities is not to be construed as a
recommendation by such Holder of the investment quality of the securities covered thereby and that such holding does not imply that such Holder will assist in meeting any future financial requirements of the Issuers, or (ii) in the event that
such reference to such Holder by name or otherwise is not required by the Securities Act or any similar federal statute then in force, the deletion of the reference to such Holder in any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement filed or
prepared subsequent to the time that such reference ceases to be required. 
 Each Holder of Registrable Securities and each
Participating Broker-Dealer agrees by its acquisition of such Registrable Securities or Exchange Securities to be sold by such Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, that, upon actual receipt of any notice from the Issuers of the happening
of any event of the kind described in Section 6(c)(ii), 6(c)(iv), 6(c)(v), or 6(c)(vi) hereof, such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer will forthwith discontinue disposition of such Registrable Securities covered by such Registration
Statement or Prospectus or Exchange Securities to be sold by such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, until such Holder’s or Participating Broker-Dealer’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended
Prospectus contemplated by Section 6(k) hereof, or until it is advised in writing (the “Advice”) by the Issuers that the use of the applicable Prospectus may be resumed, and has received copies of any amendments or supplements
thereto. In the event that the Issuers shall give any such notice, each of the Applicable Period and the Effectiveness Period shall be extended by the number of days during such periods from and including the date of the


  
 -17- 








 
giving of such notice to and including the date when each seller of Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement or Exchange Securities to be sold by such Participating
Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, shall have received (x) the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 6(k) hereof or (y) the Advice. 

 

	 	7.	Registration Expenses 

 All fees and expenses incident to the performance
of or compliance with this Agreement by the Issuers or the Guarantors of their respective obligations under Sections 2, 3, 6 and 9 shall be borne by the Issuers and the Guarantors, whether or not the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or any
Shelf Registration Statement is filed or becomes effective or the Exchange Offer is consummated, including, without limitation, (i) all registration and filing fees (including, without limitation, (A) fees with respect to filings required
to be made with the FINRA in connection with an underwritten offering and (B) fees and expenses of compliance with state securities or Blue Sky laws (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel in connection with
Blue Sky qualifications of the Registrable Securities or Exchange Securities and determination of the eligibility of the Registrable Securities or Exchange Securities for investment under the laws of such jurisdictions in the United States

Broker-Dealer during the Applicable Period)), (ii) printing expenses, including, without limitation, printing prospectuses if the printing of prospectuses is requested by the managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, or by the Holders of a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Securities included in any Registration Statement or if the Prospectus is in respect of Registrable Securities or Exchange Securities to be sold by any Participating Broker-Dealer during the
Applicable Period, as the case may be, (iii) fees and expenses of the applicable Trustee, any exchange agent and their counsel, (iv) fees and disbursements of counsel for the Issuers and, in the case of a Shelf Registration, reasonable
fees and disbursements of one special counsel for all of the sellers of Registrable Securities selected by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of Registrable Securities covered by such Shelf Registration (which counsel shall be
reasonably satisfactory to the Issuers) exclusive of any counsel retained pursuant to Section 8 hereof, (v) fees and disbursements of all independent certified public accountants referred to in Section 6(m) hereof (including, without
limitation, the expenses of any “cold comfort” letters required by or incident to such performance), (vi) rating agency fees, if any, and any fees associated with making the Registrable Securities or Exchange Securities eligible for
trading through The Depository Trust Company, (vii) Securities Act liability insurance, if the Issuers desire such insurance, (viii) fees and expenses of all other Persons retained by the Issuers, (ix) internal expenses of the Issuers

	 	8.	Indemnification and Contribution 

 (a) The Issuers and the Guarantors,
jointly and severally, agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder of Registrable Securities and each Participating Broker-Dealer selling 

  
 -18- 








 
Exchange Securities during the Applicable Period, and each Person, if any, who controls such Person within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (each,
a “Participant”) against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which any Participant may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as any such losses, claims, damages
or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: 
 (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of any material fact contained in any Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or Prospectus included therein (as amended or supplemented if the Issuers shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) or any
preliminary prospectus; or 
 (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state, in any Registration Statement (or any amendment
thereto) or Prospectus included therein (as amended or supplemented if the Issuers shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) or any preliminary prospectus or any other document or any amendment or supplement thereto, in respect of
such Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or, in respect of such Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), a material
fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. 
 except, in
each case, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with any information relating to any
Initial Purchaser or any Holder furnished to the Issuers in writing through the Initial Purchasers or any selling Holder expressly for use therein; 

and agree (subject to the limitations set forth in the proviso to this sentence) to reimburse, as incurred, the Participant for any reasonable
legal or other out of pocket expenses incurred by the Participant in connection with investigating, defending against or appearing as a third-party witness in connection with any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided,
however, neither the Issuers nor the Guarantors will be liable in any such case to the extent that any 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 any Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or Prospectus (as amended or supplemented if the Issuers shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) or any preliminary prospectus or any amendment or
supplement thereto in reliance upon and in conformity with written information relating to any Participant furnished to the Issuers by such Participant specifically for use therein. The indemnity provided for in this Section 8 will be in
addition to any liability that the Issuers may otherwise have to the indemnified parties. The Issuers and the Guarantors shall not be liable under this Section 8 to any indemnified party regarding any settlement or compromise or consent to the
entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to
such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent is consented to by the Issuers and the Guarantors, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. 

(b) Each Participant, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Issuers, the Guarantors, their
respective directors (or equivalent), their respective officers who sign any Registration Statement, affiliates and each person, if any, who controls the 

  
 -19- 








 
Issuers within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Issuers, the Guarantors or any such
director, officer, affiliate or controlling person may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any Registration Statement or Prospectus, any amendment or supplement thereto, or any preliminary prospectus, or (ii) the omission or the alleged omission to state
therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and
in conformity with written information concerning such Participant, furnished to the Issuers by or on behalf of such Participant, specifically for use therein; and subject to the limitation set forth immediately preceding this clause, will
reimburse, as incurred, any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by the Issuers, the Guarantors or any such director, officer, affiliate or controlling person in connection with investigating or defending against or appearing as a third party
witness in connection with any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action in respect thereof. The indemnity provided for in this Section 8 will be in addition to any liability that the Participants may otherwise have to the indemnified
parties. The Participants shall not be liable under this Section 8 to any indemnified party regarding any settlement or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or
proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent is consented to by
the Participants, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. 
 (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party
under this Section 8 of written notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 8, notify the indemnifying party of the
commencement thereof in writing; but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve it from any liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and to the extent it did not otherwise learn of such action and
such failure materially prejudices the indemnifying party (through the forfeiture of substantive rights and defenses) 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 be entitled to appoint counsel (including local counsel) of the indemnifying party’s choice at the indemnifying party’s expense to
represent the indemnified party in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which case the indemnifying party shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel, other than local counsel if not appointed
by the indemnifying party, retained by the indemnified party or parties except as set forth below); provided, however, that such counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the indemnifying
party’s election to appoint counsel (including local counsel) to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall
bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest (based on the advice of
counsel to the indemnified person); (ii) such action includes both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded (based on the advice of counsel to the indemnified person) that there
may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party; (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to
the indemnified party to represent the 

  
 -20- 








 
indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action; or (iv) the indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at
the expense of the indemnifying party. It is understood and agreed that the indemnifying person shall not, in connection with any proceeding or separate but related or substantially similar proceedings in the same jurisdiction arising out of the
same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel that is required to effectively defend against any such proceedings) representing the
indemnified parties under paragraph (a) or paragraph (b) of this Section 8, as the case may be, who are parties to such action or actions. Any such separate firm for any Participants shall be designated in writing by Participants who
sold a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Securities and Exchange Securities sold by all such Participants in the case of paragraph (a) of this Section 8 or the Issuers in the case of paragraph (b) of this
Section 8. In the event that any Participants are indemnified persons collectively entitled, in connection with a proceeding or separate but related or substantially similar proceedings in a single jurisdiction, to the payment of fees and
expenses of a single separate firm under this Section 8(c), and any such Participants cannot agree to a mutually acceptable separate firm to act as counsel thereto, then such separate firm for all such indemnified parties shall be designated in
writing by Participants who sold a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Securities and Exchange Securities sold by all such Participants. An indemnifying party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified
parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the
indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or
proceeding and does not include any statement as to, or any admission of, fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party. All fees and expenses reimbursed pursuant to this paragraph (c) shall be reimbursed as they
are incurred. 
 (d) After notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the
defense thereof and approval by such indemnified party of counsel appointed to defend such action, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 8 for any legal or other expenses, other than reasonable
costs of investigation, subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof, unless (i) the indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel in accordance with the third sentence of paragraph (c) of
this Section 8 or (ii) the indemnifying party has authorized in writing the employment of counsel for the indemnified party at the expense of the indemnifying party. After such notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party,
the indemnifying party will not be liable for the costs and expenses of any settlement of such action effected by such indemnified party without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld),
unless such indemnified party waived in writing its rights under this Section 8, in which case the indemnified party may effect such a settlement without such consent. 

(e) In circumstances in which the indemnity agreement provided for in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 8 is
unavailable to, or insufficient to hold harmless, an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) (other than by virtue of the failure of an indemnified party to notify the indemnifying
party of its right to indemnification pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 8, where such failure materially prejudices the indemnifying party (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses)), each indemnifying
party, in order to provide for just and equitable contribution, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or 

  
 -21- 








 
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect (i) the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the
indemnified party on the other from the offering of the Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by the foregoing clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, not only such relative benefits 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 or alleged statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in
respect thereof). The relative benefits received by the Issuers and the Guarantors on the one hand and such Participant on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion that the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting
expenses) of the Securities received by the Issuers bear to the total discounts and commissions received by such Participant in connection with the sale of the Securities (or if such Participant did not receive discounts or commissions, the value of
receiving the Securities, Private Exchange Securities or Exchange Securities registered under the Securities Act). 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 and the Guarantors on the one hand, or the Participants on the other, the parties’ relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission or alleged statement or omission, and any other equitable considerations appropriate in the circumstances. The parties agree that it would not be
equitable if the amount of such contribution were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in the first sentence of this paragraph
(e). Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph (e), no Participant shall be obligated to make contributions hereunder that in the aggregate exceed the total discounts, commissions and other compensation or net proceeds on the sale of
Securities received by such Participant in connection with the sale of the Securities, less the aggregate amount of any damages that such Participant has otherwise been required to pay by reason of the untrue or alleged untrue statements or the
omissions or alleged omissions to state a material fact, and 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. For purposes of this paragraph (d), each person, if any, who controls a Participant within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to
contribution as the Participants, and each director of the Issuers and the Guarantors, each officer of the Issuers and the Guarantors and each person, if any, who controls any of the Issuers and the Guarantors within the meaning of Section 15
of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, shall have the same rights to contribution as the Issuers. 
  

	 	9.	Rule 144A 

 The Issuers covenant and agree that they will use reasonable
best efforts to file the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations adopted by the SEC thereunder in a timely manner in accordance with the requirements of the Securities Act and
the Exchange Act and, if at any time the Issuers are not required to file such reports, the Issuers will, upon the reasonable request of any Holder or beneficial owner of Registrable Securities, make available such information necessary to permit
sales pursuant to Rule 144A. The Issuers further covenant and agree, for so long as any Registrable Securities remain outstanding that they will take such further action as any Holder of Registrable Securities may reasonably request, all to the
extent required from time to time to enable such holder to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144A unless the Issuers are then subject to Section 13
or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and reports filed thereunder satisfy the information requirements of Rule 144A then in effect. 

  
 -22- 









	 	10.	Underwritten Registrations 

 The Issuers shall not be required to assist
in an underwritten offering unless requested by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Securities. If any of the Registrable Securities 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 Securities included in such offering and shall be
reasonably acceptable to the Issuers. 
 No Holder of Registrable Securities may participate in any underwritten registration
hereunder unless such Holder (a) agrees to sell such Holder’s Registrable Securities 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) No Inconsistent Agreements. Neither the
Issuers has, as of the date hereof, and the Issuers and the Guarantors shall not, after the date of this Agreement, enter into any agreement with respect to any of its securities that is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders of
Registrable Securities in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof. The rights granted to the Holders hereunder do not in any way conflict with and are not inconsistent with the rights granted to the holders of the
Issuers’ other issued and outstanding securities under any such agreements. The Issuers and the Guarantors shall not enter into any agreement (other than this Agreement) with respect to any of the Securities which will grant to any Person
piggy-back registration rights with respect to any Registration Statement. 
 (b) Adjustments Affecting Registrable
Securities. The Issuers and the Guarantors shall not, directly or indirectly, take any action with respect to the Registrable Securities as a class that would adversely affect the ability of the Holders of Registrable Securities to include such
Registrable Securities in a registration undertaken pursuant to this Agreement. 
 (c) Amendments and Waivers. The
provisions of this Agreement with respect to each series of Notes may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, otherwise than with the prior written consent of
(I) the Issuers, and (II) (A) the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Registrable Securities of such series of Notes and (B) in circumstances that would adversely affect the
Participating Broker-Dealers, the Participating Broker-Dealers holding not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the applicable series of Exchange Notes held by all Participating Broker-Dealers; provided, however, that
Section 8 and this Section 11(c) may not be amended, modified or supplemented without the prior written consent of each Holder and each Participating Broker-Dealer (including any person who was a Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer of
Registrable Securities or Exchange Securities, as the case may be, disposed of pursuant to any Registration Statement) affected by any such amendment, modification or supplement. 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 Registrable Securities of a series of Notes whose securities are being sold pursuant to 

  
 -23- 








 
a Registration Statement and that does not directly or indirectly affect, impair, limit or compromise the rights of other Holders of Registrable Securities of such series that are not being sold
pursuant to such Registration Statement may be given by Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Securities of the applicable series of Notes being sold pursuant to such Registration Statement. 

(d) Notices. All notices and other communications (including, without limitation, any notices or other communications to
