of Default has occurred, is continuing or would result from any such action, as applicable, such condition shall, at the option of the
Issuer, be deemed satisfied, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists on (i) in the case of clause (x) of the definition
of Limited Condition Transaction, the date a definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is entered into, (ii)
in the case of clause (y) of the definition of Limited Condition Transaction, the date that the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiary provides
notice or declaration of such Investment or Restricted Payment or (iii) in the case of clause (z) of the definition of Limited
Condition Transaction, the date that the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiary provides notice of such repayment, repurchase or refinancing
of Indebtedness (clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), as applicable, the “effective date”) and not any later date as would
otherwise be required under this Indenture. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Issuer has exercised its option under the first sentence
of this Section 1.5, and any Default or Event of Default occurs following the effective date on which the applicable Limited Condition
Transaction was entered into and prior to the consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such Default or Event of Default
shall be deemed to not have occurred or be continuing for purposes of determining whether any action being taken in connection with such
Limited Condition Transaction is permitted hereunder.


 


In connection with any action being taken in connection
with a Limited Condition Transaction, for purposes of:


 


(i)                
determining compliance with any provision of this Indenture which requires the calculation of the Consolidated Senior Secured
Net Debt Ratio, the Consolidated Total Net Debt Ratio or the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio; or


 


(ii)             
testing baskets set forth in this Indenture (including baskets measured as a percentage of Four Quarter EBITDA);


 


in each case, at the option of the Issuer
(the Issuer’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, an “LCT
Election”), the date of determination of whether any such action is permitted hereunder, shall be deemed to be the
effective date for such Limited Condition Transaction (the “LCT Test Date”), and if, after giving Pro Forma
Effect to such Limited Condition Transaction and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any
Incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) as if they had occurred at the beginning of the most recent four
consecutive fiscal quarters of the Issuer ending prior to the LCT Test Date for which consolidated financial statements of the
Issuer are available, the Issuer could have taken such action on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with such ratio or basket,
such ratio or basket shall be deemed to have been complied with. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Issuer has made an LCT Election
and any of the ratios, baskets or amounts for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date are exceeded as a
result of fluctuations in any such ratio, basket or amount, including due to fluctuations in Four Quarter EBITDA of the Issuer or
the Person subject to such Limited Condition Transaction or any applicable currency exchange rate, at or prior to the consummation
of the relevant transaction or action, such baskets, ratios or amounts will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such
fluctuations. If the Issuer has made an LCT Election for any Limited Condition Transaction, then in connection with any subsequent
calculation of any ratio or basket availability with respect to the Incurrence of Indebtedness or Liens, or the making of Restricted
Payments, mergers, the conveyance, lease or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer or the
designation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary on or following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which
such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated
or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such ratio or basket shall be calculated on a Pro Forma
Basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any Incurrence of
Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated.

SECTION 2.4 Amount Unlimited; Issuable in Series.
The aggregate principal amount of Notes that may be authenticated and delivered and Outstanding under this Indenture is not limited. The
Notes may be issued from time to time in one or more series. Except as provided in Section 9.2, all Notes will vote (or consent) as a

The following matters shall be established with
respect to each series of Notes issued hereunder in a Notes Supplemental Indenture:


 


(1)       the
title of the Notes of the series (which title shall distinguish the Notes of the series from all other series of Notes);


 


(2)       any
limit (if any) upon the aggregate principal amount of the Notes of the series that may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture
(which limit shall not pertain to Notes authenticated and delivered upon registration of, transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu
of, other Notes of the series pursuant to Section 2.7, 2.8, 2.9, 2.15(d), 2.15(e), or 5.7);

period or periods within which, the price or prices at which, and other terms and conditions upon which Notes of the series may be redeemed,
in whole or in part, at the option of the Issuer, if the Issuer is to have the option;


 


(6)       if
other than the principal amount thereof, the portion of the principal amount of Notes of the series that shall be payable upon declaration
of acceleration of maturity thereof pursuant to Section 6.2 or the method by which such portion shall be determined;


 






    54


     


    

 


(7)       in
the case of any Notes, other than Initial Notes, any addition to or change in the Events of Default which apply to any Notes of the series
and any change in the right of the Trustee or the requisite Holders of such Notes to declare the principal amount thereof due and payable
pursuant to Section 6.2;


 


(8)       in
the case of any Notes, other than Initial Notes, any addition to or change in the covenants set forth in Articles III and IV; and


 


(9)       in
the case of any Notes, other than Initial Notes, any addition to or change in the definitions in Section 1.1 related to additions or changes
contemplated by the foregoing clauses (7) and (8).


 


The form of the Notes of such series, as set forth
in Exhibit A, may be modified to reflect such matters as so established in such Notes Supplemental Indenture.


 


Such matters may also be established in a Notes
Supplemental Indenture for any Additional Notes issued hereunder that are to be of the same series as any Notes previously issued hereunder.
Notes that have the same terms described in the foregoing clauses (1) though (9) will be treated as the same series, unless otherwise
designated by the Issuer; provided that if any Additional Notes are not fungible with the Initial Notes for U.S. federal income
tax purposes, such Additional Notes will have a separate “CUSIP” or “ISIN” number.


 


SECTION 2.5 Denominations. The Notes shall
be issuable only in fully registered form, without coupons, and only in minimum denominations of $2,000 (the “Minimum Denomination”),
and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.


 


SECTION 2.6 Execution, Authentication and Delivery
and Dating. The Notes shall be executed on behalf of the Issuer by one Officer thereof. The signature of any such Officer on the Notes
may be manual or by facsimile.


 


Notes bearing the manual or facsimile signature
of an individual who was at any time an Officer of the Issuer shall bind the Issuer, notwithstanding that such individual has ceased to
hold such office prior to the authentication and delivery of such Notes or did not hold such office at the date of such Notes.


 


At any time and from time to time after the
execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Issuer may deliver Notes executed by the Issuer to the Trustee for authentication; and
the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver (i) Initial Notes for original issue in the aggregate principal amount not to
exceed $500.0 million and (ii) Additional Notes in one or more series (which may be of the same series as any Notes
previously issued hereunder, or of a different series) from time to time for original issue in aggregate principal amounts specified
by the Issuer, upon a written order of the Issuer in the form of an Officer’s Certificate of the Issuer (an
 “Authentication Order”). Such Officer’s Certificate shall specify the amount of Notes to be authenticated
and the date on which the Notes are to be authenticated, the “CUSIP,” “ISIN,” “Common Code” or
other similar identification numbers of such Notes, if any, whether the Notes are to be Initial Notes or Additional Notes and
whether the Notes are to be issued as one or more Global Notes or Physical Notes and such other information as the Issuer may
include or the Trustee may reasonably request.


 






    55


     


    

 


All Notes shall be dated the date of their authentication.


 


No Note shall be entitled to any benefit under
this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose, unless there appears on such Note a certificate of authentication substantially
in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee by manual signature, and such certificate upon any Note shall be conclusive evidence,
and the only evidence, that such Note has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.


 


SECTION 2.7 Temporary Notes. Until definitive
Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and upon receipt of an Authentication Order the Trustee shall authenticate temporary
Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of definitive Notes but may have variations that the Issuer considers appropriate
for temporary Notes. If temporary Notes are issued, the Issuer will cause definitive Notes to be prepared without unreasonable delay.
After the preparation of definitive Notes, the temporary Notes shall be exchangeable for definitive Notes upon surrender of the temporary
Notes at the office or agency of the Issuer in a Place of Payment, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any
one or more temporary Notes the Isssuer shall execute and upon receipt of an Authentication Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver
in exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Notes of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged the temporary Notes shall
in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Notes of the same series and tenor.


 


SECTION 2.8 Registrar and Paying Agent.
The Issuer shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee a register (the register maintained in such office and
in any other office or agency of the Issuer in a Place of Payment being herein sometimes collectively referred to as the “Note
Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Issuer shall provide for the registration
of Notes and of transfers of Notes. The Issuer may have one or more co-registrars. The term “Note Registrar” includes
any co-registrars.


 


The Issuer may have one or more additional paying
agents, and the term “Paying Agent” shall include any additional Paying Agent.


 


The Issuer initially appoints the Trustee as
 “Note Registrar” and “Paying Agent” in connection with the Notes, until such time as it has resigned or a
successor has been appointed. The Issuer may change the Paying Agent or Note Registrar for any series of Notes without prior notice
to the Holders of Notes. The Issuer may enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Note Registrar or Paying Agent not a
party to this Indenture. Any such agency agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent. The
Issuer shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any such agent. If the Issuer fails to appoint or maintain a
Note Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefor pursuant to
Section 7.6. The Issuer or any wholly-owned Domestic Subsidiary of the Issuer may act as Paying Agent, Note Registrar or transfer
agent.


 






    56


     


    

 


Upon surrender for transfer of any Note at the
office or agency of the Issuer in a Place of Payment, in compliance with all applicable requirements of this Indenture and applicable
law, the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees,
one or more new Notes of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount.


 


At the option of the Holder, Notes may be exchanged
for other Notes of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of a like tenor and aggregate principal amount, upon surrender
of the Notes to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Issuer shall execute, and
the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Notes that the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.


 


All Notes issued upon any transfer or exchange
of Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture,
as the Notes surrendered upon such transfer or exchange.


 


Every Note presented or surrendered for transfer
or exchange shall (if so required by the Issuer or the Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer
in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Note Registrar duly executed, by the Holder thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized
in writing.


 


No service charge shall be made for any registration,
transfer or exchange of Notes, but the Issuer and/or Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith.


 


The Issuer shall not be required (i) to
issue, transfer or exchange any Note during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 Business Days before the day of the sending
of a notice of redemption (or purchase) of Notes selected for redemption (or purchase) under Section 5.3(b) and ending at the close of
business on the day of such sending, or (ii) to transfer or exchange any Note so selected for redemption (or purchase) in
whole or in part.


 


SECTION 2.9 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and
Stolen Notes. If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Note Registrar or if the Holder of a Note claims that the Note has been
lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Note if the
requirements of Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code are met, such that the Holder (a) satisfies the Issuer
or the Trustee within a reasonable time after such Holder has notice of such loss, destruction or wrongful taking and the Note
Registrar does not register a transfer prior to receiving such notification, (b) makes such request to the Issuer or the
Trustee prior to the Note being acquired by a protected purchaser as defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code (a
 “protected purchaser”) and (c) satisfies any other reasonable requirements of the Trustee. If
required by the Trustee or the Issuer, such Holder shall furnish an indemnity bond sufficient in the judgment of (i) the
Trustee to protect the Trustee and (ii) the Issuer to protect the Issuer, the Trustee, a Paying Agent and the Note
Registrar from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced.


 






    57


     


    

 


In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or
stolen Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Issuer in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Note, pay such
Note.


 


Upon the issuance of any new Note under this Section
2.9, the Issuer may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation
thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.


 


Every new Note issued pursuant to this Section
2.9 in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Issuer, whether
or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this
Indenture equally and ratably with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder.


 


The provisions of this Section 2.9 are exclusive
and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed,
lost or stolen Notes.


 


SECTION 2.10 Payment of Interest Rights Preserved.
Interest on any Note that is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person
in whose name that Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such
interest specified in Section 4 of the applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture.


 


Unless otherwise specified for Notes of any series
in the applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture, as contemplated by Section 2.4, any interest on any Note that is payable, but is not punctually
paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date (“Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable
to the registered Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder; and such Defaulted Interest may be
paid by the Issuer, at its election, as provided in clause (1) or clause (2) below:


 


(1)       The
Issuer may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Notes (or their respective Predecessor
Notes) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be
fixed in the following manner. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee and Paying Agent in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest
proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Issuer shall deposit with the
Trustee or Paying Agent an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest
or shall make arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee or Paying Agent for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed
payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as
provided in this clause (1). Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which
shall be not more than 15 nor less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the
receipt by the Trustee and the Paying Agent of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer of
such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Issuer, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such
Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder at such
Holder’s address as it appears in the Note Register, or sent electronically, not less than 10 days prior to such Special
Record Date or otherwise in accordance with DTC procedures. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the
Special Record Date therefor having been so given, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Notes (or
their respective Predecessor Notes) are registered on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the
following clause (2).


 






    58


     


    

 


(2)       The
Issuer may make payment of any Defaulted Interest in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities
exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Issuer
to the Trustee and the Paying Agent of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause (2), such payment shall be deemed practicable by the
Trustee.


 


Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section
2.10, each Note delivered under this Indenture upon transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Note of the same series shall
carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, that were carried by such other Note of such series.


 


SECTION 2.11 Persons Deemed Owners. The
Issuer, any Subsidiary Guarantor, the Trustee, the Paying Agent and any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name any Note
is registered as the owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and premium, if any), and (subject to Section
2.10) interest on, such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note be overdue, and none of the Issuer, any Subsidiary
Guarantor, the Trustee, the Paying Agent nor any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice to the contrary.


 


SECTION 2.12 Cancellation. All Notes surrendered
for payment, redemption, transfer, exchange or conversion shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to
the Trustee and, if not already cancelled, shall be promptly cancelled by it. The Issuer may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation
any Notes previously authenticated and delivered hereunder that the Issuer may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Notes so
delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No Notes shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Notes cancelled
as provided in this Section 2.12, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Notes held by the Trustee shall be disposed
of by the Trustee in accordance with its customary procedures (subject to the record retention requirements of the Exchange Act).


 


SECTION 2.13 Computation of Interest.
Unless otherwise specified for Notes of any series in the applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture, as contemplated by Section 2.4,

    59


     


    

 


SECTION 2.14 CUSIP Numbers, ISINs, etc.
The Issuer in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP” numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers (if then generally in
use), and if so, the Trustee may use the CUSIP numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers in notices of redemption or exchange
as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the
correctness or accuracy of such numbers printed in the notice or on the Notes; that reliance may be placed only on the other identification
numbers printed on the Notes; and that any redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Issuer should
promptly notify the Trustee, in writing, of any change in any “CUSIP,” “ISIN” or “Common Code” number,
but failure to so notify the Trustee shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default by the Issuer.


 


SECTION 2.15 Book-Entry Provisions for Global
Notes.


 


(a)           Each Global Note initially shall (i) be registered in the name of the Depositary for such Global Note or the nominee
of such Depositary, in each case for credit to the account of an Agent Member, and (ii) be delivered to the Notes Custodian.
Neither the Issuer nor any of its agents shall have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments
made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Global Note, or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating
to such beneficial ownership interests.


 


(b)           Members of, or participants in, the Depositary (“Agent Members”) shall have no rights under this Indenture with
respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by the Depositary, or the Notes Custodian, or under such Global Notes. The Depositary
may be treated by the Issuer, any other obligor upon the Notes, the Trustee and any agent of any of them as the absolute owner of the
Global Notes for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Issuer, any other obligor upon
the Notes, the Trustee or any agent of any of them from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished
by the Depositary or impair, as between the Depositary and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise
of the rights of a beneficial owner of any Note. The registered Holder of a Global Note may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any
Person, including Agent Members and Persons that may hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action that a Holder is entitled
to take under this Indenture or the Notes.


 


The Holder of any Global Note may grant proxies
and otherwise authorize any Person, including Agent Members and Persons that may hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action
which a Holder is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Notes.


 


(c)           Transfers
of a Global Note shall be limited to transfers of such Global Note in whole, but, subject to the immediately succeeding sentence,
not in part, to the Depositary, its successors or their respective nominees. Interests of beneficial owners in a Global Note may not
be transferred or exchanged for Physical Notes unless (i) the Issuer has consented thereto in writing, or such transfer
or exchange is made pursuant to the next sentence, and (ii) such transfer or exchange is in accordance with the
applicable rules and procedures of the Depositary and the provisions of Sections 2.8 and 2.16. Subject to the limitation on issuance
of Physical Notes set forth in Section 2.16(3), Physical Notes shall be transferred to all beneficial owners in exchange for their
beneficial interests in the relevant Global Note, if (i) the Depositary notifies the Issuer at any time that it is
unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the Global Notes and a successor depositary is not appointed within 120 days;
(ii) the Depositary ceases to be registered as a “Clearing Agency” under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
and a successor depositary is not appointed within 120 days; (iii) the Issuer, at its option, notifies the Trustee that
it elects to cause the issuance of Physical Notes; or (iv) an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing
with respect to the Notes and the Trustee has received a written request from the Depositary to issue Physical Notes.


 






    60


     


    

 


(d)           In connection with any transfer or exchange of a portion of the beneficial interest in any Global Note to beneficial owners for
Physical Notes pursuant to Section 2.15(c), the Note Registrar shall record on its books and records the date and a decrease in the principal
amount of such Global Note in an amount equal to the beneficial interest in the Global Note being transferred, and the Issuer shall execute,
and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, one or more Physical Notes of like tenor and principal amount of authorized denominations.


 


(e)           In connection with a transfer of an entire Global Note to beneficial owners pursuant to Section 2.15(c), the applicable Global
Note shall be deemed to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate
and deliver, to each beneficial owner identified by the Depositary, in exchange for its beneficial interest in the applicable Global Note,
an equal aggregate principal amount of Rule 144A Physical Notes (in the case of any Rule 144A Global Note) or Regulation S Physical Notes
(in the case of any Regulation S Global Note), as the case may be, of authorized denominations.


 


(f)            The transfer and exchange of a Global Note or beneficial interests therein shall be effected through the Depositary, in accordance
with this Indenture (including applicable restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 2.16) and the applicable rules and procedures
therefor of the Depositary. Any beneficial interest in one of the Global Notes that is transferred to a Person who takes delivery in the
form of an interest in a different Global Note will, upon transfer, cease to be an interest in such Global Note and become an interest
in the other Global Note and, accordingly, will thereafter be subject to all transfer restrictions, if any, and other procedures applicable
to beneficial interests in such other Global Note for as long as it remains such an interest. A transferor of a beneficial interest in
a Global Note shall deliver to the Note Registrar a written order given in accordance with the Depositary’s applicable rules and
procedures containing information regarding the participant account of the Depositary to be credited with a beneficial interest in the
relevant Global Note (or shall otherwise comply with the then applicable rules and procedures of the Depositary). Subject to Section 2.16,
the Note Registrar shall, in accordance with such instructions, instruct the Depositary to credit to the account of the Person specified
in such instructions a beneficial interest in such Global Note and to debit the account of the Person making the transfer the beneficial
interest in the Global Note being transferred.


 


(g)            Any Physical Note delivered in exchange for an interest in a Global Note pursuant to Section 2.15(c) shall, unless such exchange
is made on or after the Resale Restriction Termination Date applicable to such Note and except as otherwise provided in Section 2.3 and
Section 2.16, bear the Private Placement Legend.


 


(h)           Notwithstanding the foregoing, through the Restricted Period, a beneficial interest in a Regulation S Global Note may be held only
through designated Agent Members holding on behalf of Euroclear or Clearstream unless delivery is made in accordance with the applicable
provisions of Section 2.16.


 


SECTION 2.16 Special Transfer Provisions.


 


(1)       Transfers
to Non-U.S. Persons. The following provisions shall apply with respect to the registration of any proposed transfer of a Note that is
a Restricted Security (within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) of the Securities Act) to any Non-U.S. Person: The Note Registrar shall register
such transfer if it complies with all other applicable requirements of this Indenture (including Section 2.8), and


 



    61


     


    





 


(a)                    
if (x) such transfer is after the relevant Resale Restriction Termination Date with respect to such Note or (y) the
proposed transferor has delivered to the Note Registrar and the Issuer and the Trustee a Regulation S Certificate and, unless otherwise
agreed by the Issuer and the Trustee, an Opinion of Counsel, certifications and other information satisfactory to the Issuer and the Trustee,
and


 


(b)                    
if the proposed transferor is or is acting through an Agent Member holding a beneficial interest in a Global Note, upon receipt
by the Note Registrar and the Issuer and the Trustee of (x) the certificate, opinion, certifications and other information,
if any, required by clause (a) above and (y) written instructions given in accordance with the procedures of the Note Registrar
and of the Depositary;


 


whereupon (i) the Note Registrar shall
reflect on its books and records the date and (if the transfer does not involve a transfer of any Outstanding Physical Note) a decrease
in the principal amount of the relevant Global Note in an amount equal to the principal amount of the beneficial interest in the relevant
Global Note to be transferred, and (ii) either (A) if the proposed transferee is or is acting through an Agent
Member holding a beneficial interest in a relevant Regulation S Global Note, the Note Registrar shall reflect on its books and records
the date and an increase in the principal amount of such Regulation S Global Note in an amount equal to the principal amount of the beneficial
interest being so transferred or (B) otherwise the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver one
or more Physical Notes of like tenor and amount.


 


(2)       Transfers
to QIBs. The following provisions shall apply with respect to the registration of any proposed transfer of a Note that is a Restricted
Security (within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) of the Securities Act) to a QIB (excluding transfers to Non-U.S. Persons): The Note Registrar
shall register such transfer if it complies with all other applicable requirements of this Indenture (including Section 2.8), and


 


(a)                    
 if such transfer is being made by a proposed transferor who has checked the box provided for on the form of such Note stating,
or has otherwise certified to the Note Registrar and the Issuer and the Trustee in writing, that the sale has been made in compliance
with the provisions of Rule 144A to a transferee who has signed the certification provided for on the form of such Note stating, or has
otherwise certified to Note Registrar and the Issuer and the Trustee in writing, that it is purchasing such Note for its own account or
an account with respect to which it exercises sole investment discretion and that it and any such account is a QIB within the meaning
of Rule 144A, and is aware that the sale to it is being made in reliance on Rule 144A and acknowledges that it has received such information
regarding the Issuer as it has requested pursuant to Rule 144A or has determined not to request such information and that it is aware
that the transferor is relying upon its foregoing representations in order to claim the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144A;
and


 


(b)                    
if the proposed transferee is an Agent Member, and the Note to be transferred consists of a Physical Note that after transfer is
to be evidenced by an interest in a Global Note or consists of a beneficial interest in a Global Note that after the transfer is to be
evidenced by an interest in a different Global Note, upon receipt by the Note Registrar of written instructions given in accordance with
the Depositary’s and the Note Registrar’s procedures, whereupon the Note Registrar shall reflect on its books and records
the date and an increase in the principal amount of the transferee Global Note in an amount equal to the principal amount of the Physical
Note or such beneficial interest in such transferor Global Note to be transferred, and the Trustee shall cancel the Physical Note so transferred
or reflect on its books and records the date and a decrease in the principal amount of such transferor Global Note, as the case may be.


 






    62


     


    

 


(3)       Limitation
on Issuance of Physical Notes. No Physical Note shall be exchanged for a beneficial interest in any Global Note, except in accordance
with Section 2.15 and this Section 2.16.


 


A beneficial owner of an interest in a Regulation
S Global Note shall not be permitted to exchange such interest for a Physical Note (any such exchange being limited, in any case, to the
circumstances set forth in Section 2.15(c)) or (in the case of such interest in a Temporary Regulation S Global Note) an interest in a
Permanent Regulation S Global Note until a date, which must be after the Distribution Compliance Date, on which the Issuer receives a
certificate of beneficial ownership substantially in the form of Exhibit B from such beneficial owner (a “Certificate of Beneficial
Ownership”). Such date, as it relates to a Regulation S Global Note, is herein referred to as the “Regulation S Note
Exchange Date.”


 


(4)       Private
Placement Legend. Upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes not bearing the Private Placement Legend, the Note Registrar
shall deliver Notes that do not bear the Private Placement Legend. Upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes bearing the
Private Placement Legend, the Note Registrar shall deliver only Notes that bear the Private Placement Legend unless
(i) the requested transfer is after the relevant Resale Restriction Termination Date with respect to such Notes,
(ii) upon written request of the Issuer after there is delivered to the Note Registrar an Opinion of Counsel (which
opinion and counsel are satisfactory to the Issuer) to the effect that neither such legend nor the related restrictions on transfer
are required in order to maintain compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act, (iii) with respect to a
Regulation S Global Note (on or after the Resale Restriction Termination Date with respect to such Regulation S Global Note) or
Regulation S Physical Note, in each case with the agreement of the Issuer, or (iv) such Notes are sold or exchanged
pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act.


 


(5)       Other
Transfers. The Note Registrar shall effect and register, upon receipt of a written request from the Issuer to do so, a transfer not otherwise
permitted by this Section 2.16, such registration to be done in accordance with the otherwise applicable provisions of this Section 2.16,
upon the furnishing by the proposed transferor or transferee of a written Opinion of Counsel (which opinion and counsel are satisfactory
to the Issuer) to the effect that, and such other certifications or information as the Issuer or the Trustee may require (including, in
the case of a transfer to an Accredited Investor (as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under Regulation D promulgated under the
Securities Act), a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E) to confirm that, the proposed transfer is being made pursuant to
an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act.


 


A Note that is a Restricted Security (within the
meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) of the Securities Act) may not be transferred other than as provided in this Section 2.16. A beneficial interest
in a Global Note that is a Restricted Security (within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) of the Securities Act) may not be exchanged for a
beneficial interest in another Global Note other than through a transfer in compliance with this Section 2.16.


 






    63


     


    

 


(6)       General.

in this Indenture.


 


The Note Registrar shall retain copies of all letters,
notices and other written communications received pursuant to Section 2.15 or this Section 2.16 (including all Notes received for transfer
pursuant to Section 2.16). The Issuer shall have the right to require the Note Registrar to deliver to the Issuer, at the Issuer’s
expense, copies of all such letters, notices or other written communications at any reasonable time upon the giving of reasonable written
notice to the Note Registrar.


 


In connection with any transfer of any Note, the
Trustee, the Note Registrar and the Issuer shall be entitled to receive, shall be under no duty to inquire into, may conclusively presume
the correctness of, and shall be fully protected in relying upon the certificates, opinions and other information referred to herein (or
in the forms provided herein, attached hereto or to the Notes, or otherwise) received from any Holder and any transferee of any Note regarding
the validity, legality and due authorization of any such transfer, the eligibility of the transferee to receive such Note and any other
facts and circumstances related to such transfer.


 


SECTION 2.17  [Reserved].


 


SECTION 2.18  Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust.
The Issuer shall require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the
benefit of the Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest
on the Notes. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by such Paying Agent to the Trustee. Upon payment
over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than either of the Issuer) shall have no further liability for the money delivered to
the Trustee. If the Issuer acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders
all money held by it as Paying Agent.


 


SECTION 2.19  Lists of Holders of the Notes.
The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses
of Holders. If the Trustee is not the Note Registrar, the Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee at least seven Business Days before each
Interest Payment Date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee
may reasonably require of the names and addresses of Holders, including the aggregate principal amount of the Notes held by each Holder
thereof.

(d)       Delivery
of these reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of them
will not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including
the Issuer’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officer’s
Certificates).


 


SECTION 3.3  Limitation on Incurrence of Indebtedness
and Issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock.


 


(a)              The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, Incur any Indebtedness
(including Acquired Indebtedness) or issue any shares of Disqualified Stock and the Issuer will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries
to issue any shares of Preferred Stock; provided, however, that the Issuer and any Restricted Subsidiary may Incur Indebtedness
(including Acquired Indebtedness) or issue shares of Disqualified Stock and any Restricted Subsidiary may issue shares of Preferred Stock,
in each case if the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, calculated as of the date on which such additional Indebtedness is Incurred or such Disqualified
Stock or Preferred Stock is issued and determined on a Pro Forma Basis for the Incurrence (including the use of proceeds thereof) and
any related transactions, would be equal to or greater than 2.00 to 1.00 (any such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock,
 “Ratio Debt”).


 


(b)              The foregoing limitations will not apply to (collectively, “Permitted Debt”):


 


(i)             the
Incurrence by the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness under any Credit Agreement, the guarantees thereof and the issuance
and creation of letters of credit and bankers’ acceptances thereunder (with letters of credit and bankers’ acceptances being
deemed to have a principal amount equal to the face amount thereof), up to the sum of (I) an aggregate outstanding principal amount
not to exceed the sum of (x) $2,750.0 million plus (y) the greater of (A) $909.0 million and (B) 100.0% of Four Quarter EBITDA, at any
one time outstanding, plus (II) an additional aggregate principal amount which, after giving Pro Forma Effect to such Incurrence
(including the use of proceeds thereof) and any related transactions (or, at the Issuer’s option, on the date of the initial borrowing
of such Indebtedness or entry into the definitive agreement providing the commitment to fund such Indebtedness after giving Pro Forma
Effect to the Incurrence of the entire committed amount of such Indebtedness and any related transactions (such committed amount, a “Ratio
Tested Committed Amount”), in which case such Ratio Tested Committed Amount may thereafter be borrowed and reborrowed, in whole
or in part, from time to time, without further compliance with this clause), would not cause the Consolidated Senior Secured Net Debt
Ratio to exceed 3.50 to 1.00; provided that (x) any Indebtedness Incurred under clause (I) of this clause (i) on the date
of determination of the Consolidated Senior Secured Net Debt Ratio shall be excluded in the calculation of the Consolidated Senior Secured
Net Debt Ratio under clause (II) of this clause (i) on such date but not, for the avoidance of doubt, excluded from any such calculation
made on any subsequent date and (y) any Indebtedness Incurred under clause (II) of this clause (i) shall be deemed to be Secured
Indebtedness, whether or not so secured, solely for purposes of calculating the Consolidated Senior Secured Net Debt Ratio in connection
with the Incurrence thereof;


 


(ii)            the
Incurrence by the Issuer and the Guarantors of Indebtedness represented by the Notes (not including any Additional Notes) and the Guarantees
thereof;


 






    67


     


    

 


(iii)          
Indebtedness of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries outstanding (or Incurred pursuant to any commitment outstanding) on
the Issue Date (other than Indebtedness under the Senior Credit Agreement Incurred under clause (i) above or in respect of the Initial
Notes Incurred under clause (ii) above);


 


(iv)           Indebtedness
(including Capitalized Lease Obligations and mortgage financings as purchase money obligations) Incurred by the Issuer or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries, Disqualified Stock issued by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and Preferred Stock issued by
any Restricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer to finance all or any part of the purchase, lease, construction, installation, repair or improvement
of property (real or personal), plant or equipment or other fixed or capital assets (whether through the direct purchase of assets or
the Capital Stock of any Person owning such assets) in an aggregate principal amount or liquidation preference, including all Indebtedness
Incurred and Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock issued to Refinance any Indebtedness Incurred or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock
issued pursuant to this clause (iv), not to exceed the greater of (a) $250.0 million and (b) 27.5% of Four
Quarter EBITDA, at any one time outstanding;


 


(v)            Indebtedness
Incurred by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries constituting reimbursement obligations with respect to letters of
credit or bank guarantees or similar instruments issued in the ordinary course of business, including, without limitation,

exceeded (and such newly Incurred Indebtedness shall be deemed permitted) to the extent the principal amount of such newly Incurred

purposes of determining compliance with any provision of this Section 3.3 (or any category of Permitted Liens described in the
definition thereof) measured by a dollar amount or by reference to a percentage of Four Quarter EBITDA, in each case, the principal
amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect
on the date such Indebtedness was Incurred or Liens securing such Indebtedness were granted, in the case of term debt, or first
committed or first Incurred (or granted) (whichever yields the lower U.S. dollar-equivalent), in the case of revolving credit debt

Indebtedness is Incurred (or commitments established) or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock issued to Refinance other
Indebtedness (or unutilized commitments in respect of such Indebtedness), Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock denominated in a
foreign currency, and such Refinancing would cause the applicable provision of this Section 3.3 (or category of Permitted Liens) to
be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such Refinancing, such provision of this
Section 3.3 (or category of Permitted Liens) shall be deemed not to have been exceeded to the extent the principal amount of such
newly Incurred Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness or the maximum fixed repurchase price amount
of such Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, as the case may be, being Refinanced (plus the Related Costs in connection
therewith).


 


(e)                  
The principal amount of any Indebtedness Incurred (or commitments established) and the maximum fixed repurchase price amount of
Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock issued to Refinance other Indebtedness (or unutilized commitments in respect of such Indebtedness),
if Incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock being Refinanced, shall be calculated
for all purposes under this Indenture (including for purposes of the definition of “Permitted Liens”) based on the currency
exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such respective Indebtedness (or unutilized commitments in respect of such Indebtedness),
Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is denominated that is in effect on the date of such Refinancing.

affiliated or unitary income tax group for such year (for the avoidance of doubt, determined by taking into account any available net
operating loss carryovers or other tax attributes of the Issuer or its subsidiaries, as applicable, to the extent permitted under applicable
law; reduced by any such taxes paid directly by the Issuer or any Subsidiary, and determined as if the Issuer and its Subsidiaries were

such direct or indirect parent of the Issuer causes (x) all property acquired (whether assets or Equity Interests) to be
contributed to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary or (y) the merger, consolidation or amalgamation (to the extent
permitted by Article IV) of the Person formed or acquired into the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary in order to consummate such

effect to, any Restricted Payment permitted under Section 3.4(b)(x) and Section 3.4(b)(xxi), no Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof. For purposes of clauses (xii), (xiii) and (xv) of Section 3.4(b), taxes

the Issuer may divide and classify such Investment or Restricted Payment (or a portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this
Section 3.4 and may later divide and reclassify any such Investment or Restricted Payment to the extent the Investment or Restricted Payment
(as so divided and/or reclassified) would be permitted to be made in reliance on the applicable exception as of the date of such reclassification.


 


(e)                            Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Indenture, this Indenture shall not restrict any redemption or other payment by the Issuer or any
Restricted Subsidiary made as a mandatory principal redemption or other payment in respect of Subordinated Indebtedness pursuant to
an “AHYDO saver” provision of any agreement or instrument in respect of Subordinated Indebtedness, and the
Issuer’s determination in good faith of the amount of any such “AHYDO saver” mandatory principal redemption or
other payment shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes under this Indenture.

(a)                           
The Issuer will not, and will not permit any Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, create, Incur or suffer to exist any Lien securing
Indebtedness (other than Permitted Liens) on any asset or property of the Issuer or such Guarantor, unless (1) in the case
of Liens securing Subordinated Indebtedness, the Notes and any applicable Guarantee are secured by a Lien on such property or assets and
the proceeds thereof that is senior in priority to such Liens; or (2) in all other cases, the Notes and the applicable Guarantee
are secured by a Lien on such property or assets and the proceeds thereof equally and ratably with or prior to such Liens.


 


(b)                           
Any Lien which is granted to secure the Notes or such Guarantee under Section 3.5(a) shall be automatically and unconditionally
released and discharged at the same time as the release of the Lien (other than a release following enforcement of remedies in respect
of such Lien or the Obligations secured by such Lien) that gave rise to the obligation to secure the Notes or such Guarantee under Section
3.5(a).


 






    83


    


    

 


(c)                           
With respect to any Lien securing Indebtedness that was permitted to secure such Indebtedness at the time of the Incurrence of
such Indebtedness, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness. The “Increased Amount”
of any Indebtedness shall mean any increase in the amount of such Indebtedness in connection with any accrual of interest, the accretion
of accreted value, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness
with the same terms, accretion of original issue discount or liquidation preference, the Related Costs Incurred or payable in connection
therewith and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies
or increases in the value of property securing Indebtedness.

a Restricted Subsidiary) or assumed in connection with the acquisition of assets from such Person (but, in each case, not created in contemplation
thereof); provided that for purposes of this clause (iv), if a Person other than the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary is the
Successor Company with respect thereto, any Subsidiary of such Person, or any agreement or instrument of such Person or any such Subsidiary
shall be deemed acquired or assumed, as the case may be, by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, when such Person
becomes such Successor Company;

to reduce Obligations under (x) Pari Passu Indebtedness of the Issuer or the Guarantors (provided that if the
Issuer or any Guarantor shall so reduce such Obligations under Pari Passu Indebtedness other than the Notes, the Issuer will (A) equally
and ratably reduce Obligations under the Notes as provided in Article V or through open-market purchases (to the extent such purchases
are at or above 100.0% of the principal amount thereof) or (B) make an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth
below for an Asset Sale Offer) to all Holders to purchase at a purchase price equal to no less than 100.0% of the principal amount thereof,
plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, the principal amount of Notes that would be redeemed under clause (A) above) or (y) Indebtedness
of a Non-Guarantor Subsidiary, in each case, other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or another Restricted Subsidiary (and, in the
case of revolving loans, to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto);


 


(iv)          
to make an investment in any one or more businesses (provided that if such investment is in the form of the acquisition
of Capital Stock of a Person, such acquisition results in such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer), assets (other than
working capital assets), or property or capital expenditures, in each case used or useful in a Similar Business;


 


(v)            to
make an investment in any one or more businesses (provided that if such investment is in the form of the acquisition of
Capital Stock of a Person, such acquisition results in such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer), properties
(other than working capital assets) or assets (other than working capital assets) that replace the businesses, properties and/or
assets that are the subject of such Asset Sale; or


 


(vi)          
any combination of the foregoing;


 


provided that (x) the Issuer and its Restricted
Subsidiaries will be deemed to have applied the Net Cash Proceeds pursuant to the provisions described in clauses (iv) and (v) of this
Section 3.7(b) if and to the extent that, within 540 days after the receipt of the Net Cash Proceeds of an Asset Sale, the Issuer or a
Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, has entered into and not abandoned or rejected a binding agreement to make an investment pursuant
to the provision described in clause (iv) and (v) of this Section 3.7(b), and that investment is thereafter completed within 720 days
following receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds and (y) the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary may elect to make an investment
pursuant to clauses (iv) or (v) of this Section 3.7(b) prior to receiving Net Cash Proceeds attributable to any given Asset Sale (provided
that such investment shall be made no earlier than the earliest of notice to the Trustee of the relevant Asset Sale, execution of a definitive
agreement for the relevant Asset Sale, and consummation of the relevant Asset Sale) and deem the amount so invested to be applied pursuant
to and in accordance with either or both of such clauses with respect to such Asset Sale.


 






    88


    


    

 


(c)               Notwithstanding
the foregoing, to the extent that repatriation to the United States of any or all of the Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sales by a Foreign
Subsidiary (x) is prohibited or delayed by applicable local law or (y) would have a material adverse tax consequence
(taking into account any foreign tax credit or other net benefit actually realized in connection with such repatriation that would not
otherwise be realized), as determined by the Issuer in its sole discretion, the portion of such Net Cash Proceeds so affected will not
be required to be applied in compliance with this Section 3.7, and such amounts may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary;
provided that clause (x) of this Section 3.7(c) shall apply to such amounts for so long, but only for so long, as the applicable
local law will not permit repatriation to the United States (the Issuer hereby agreeing to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause
the applicable Foreign Subsidiary to take all actions reasonably required by the applicable local law, applicable organizational impediments
or other impediment to permit such repatriation), and if such repatriation of any of such affected Net Cash Proceeds is permitted under
the applicable local law and is not subject to clause (y) of this Section 3.7(c), then such repatriation will be promptly effected and
such repatriated Net Cash Proceeds will be applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof) in compliance
with this Section 3.7. The time periods set forth in this Section 3.7 shall not start until such time as the Net Cash Proceeds may be
repatriated (whether or not such repatriation actually occurs).


 


(d)               Pending
the final application of any such amount of Net Cash Proceeds, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary may temporarily reduce
Indebtedness under a revolving credit facility, if any, or otherwise invest or utilize such Net Cash Proceeds in any manner not
prohibited by this Indenture. Any amount of the Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale that is not invested or applied as provided
and within the time period set forth in Section 3.7(b) will be deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds”; provided
that any amount of proceeds offered to Holders pursuant to Section 3.7(b)(iii)(x) or pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer made at
any time after the Asset Sale shall be deemed to have been applied as required and shall not be deemed to be Excess Proceeds without
regard to the extent to which such offer is accepted by the Holders. When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds less Total
Leverage Excess Proceeds exceeds $60.0 million, the Issuer shall make an offer (an “Asset Sale Offer”) to
all Holders of Notes and, if required by the terms of any Pari Passu Indebtedness, to all holders of such Pari Passu Indebtedness,
to purchase the maximum principal amount of such Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness, as appropriate, on a pro rata basis, that may be
purchased out of such Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100.0% of the principal amount thereof (or in
the event such Pari Passu Indebtedness was issued with original issue discount, 100.0% of the accreted value thereof), plus accrued
and unpaid interest and additional interest, if any (or such lesser price, if any, as may be provided by the terms of such Pari
Passu Indebtedness), to (but not including) the date fixed for the closing of such offer, in accordance with the procedures set
forth in this Indenture and the agreement governing such Pari Passu Indebtedness. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer shall
only be required to make an Asset Sale Offer with 50.0% of the Excess Proceeds if the Consolidated Total Net Debt Ratio for the
Issuer is less than or equal to 1.50 to 1.00 after giving effect to any application of any Net Cash Proceeds as set forth herein,
including completion of any prior offer to repurchase a portion of the Notes, and shall not be required to make an Asset Sale Offer
with any Excess Proceeds if the Consolidated Total Net Debt Ratio for the Issuer is less than or equal to 1.00 to 1.00 after giving
effect to any application of any Net Cash Proceeds as set forth herein, including completion of any prior offer to repurchase a
portion of the Notes (any Excess Proceeds not required to be offered in an Asset Sale Offer in reliance on this sentence (i.e., such
50.0% or 100.0%, as applicable) shall constitute “Total Leverage Excess Proceeds”). The Issuer will commence an
Asset Sale Offer with respect to Excess Proceeds within 10 Business Days after the date that Excess Proceeds less Total Leverage
Excess Proceeds exceed $50.0 million by transmitting electronically or by mailing to the Holders the notice required pursuant
to the terms of this Indenture, with a copy to the Trustee or otherwise in accordance with the procedures of DTC. The Issuer may
satisfy the foregoing obligations with respect to such Net Cash Proceeds from an Asset Sale by making an Asset Sale Offer with
respect to such Net Cash Proceeds at any time prior to the expiration of the application period or by electing to make an Asset Sale
Offer with respect to such Net Cash Proceeds before the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds less Total Leverage Excess Proceeds
exceeds $60.0 million.


 






    89


    


    

 


(e)               
To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes and any other Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered or otherwise surrendered in connection
with an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Issuer may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise
prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered or otherwise surrendered
by holders thereof exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes and the Issuer or its agent shall select
such Pari Passu Indebtedness to be purchased in the manner described below. Upon completion of any such Asset Sale Offer, the amount of
Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero. To the extent the Excess Proceeds exceed the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Notes
(and, if required by the terms thereof, all Pari Passu Indebtedness), the Issuer need only make an Asset Sale Offer up to the outstanding
aggregate principal amount of Notes (and any such Pari Passu Indebtedness), and any additional Excess Proceeds shall not be subject to
this Section 3.7 and shall be permitted to be used for any purpose in the Issuer’s discretion.


 


(f)                 The
Issuer will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations to the
extent such laws or regulations are applicable in connection with the purchase of the Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the
extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Indenture, the Issuer will
comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this
Indenture by virtue thereof.


 


(g)               
The provisions under this Indenture relating to the Issuer’s obligation to make an offer to purchase the Notes as a result
of an Asset Sale, including the definition of “Asset Sale,” may be waived or modified at any time (including after Net Cash
Proceeds have been received) with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding.


 


(h)               
If more Notes are tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer than the Issuer is required to purchase, selection of such Notes for
purchase will be made in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which such Notes are
listed (to the extent the Trustee knows of such listing) or if such Notes are not listed, on a pro rata basis (with adjustments so that
only Notes in denominations of the Minimum Denomination or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof shall be purchased), by lot
or by such other method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate (and in such manner as complies with applicable legal requirements);
provided that the selection of Notes for purchase shall not result in a Noteholder with a principal amount of Notes less than the
Minimum Denomination. No Note will be repurchased in part if less than the Minimum Denomination of such Note would be left outstanding.


 






    90


    


    

 


(i)                
Notices of an Asset Sale Offer shall be mailed by first class mail, postage prepaid, or sent electronically, at least 10 but not
more than 60 days before the purchase date to each Holder of Notes at such Holder’s registered address or otherwise in accordance
with DTC procedures, except that such notice may be delivered more than 60 days prior to the purchase date if such purchase is delayed
because the receipt by the Issuer of the relevant Net Cash Proceeds has been delayed, in which case the purchase date shall be the date
on which the Net Cash Proceeds are received. If any Note is to be purchased in part only, any notice of purchase that relates to such
Note shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof that has been or is to be purchased.


 


(j)                
A new Note in principal amount equal to the unpurchased portion of any Note purchased in part will be issued in the name of the
Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Note. On and after the purchase date, unless the Issuer defaults in payment of the purchase
price, interest shall cease to accrue on Notes or portions thereof purchased.


 


(k)               
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Asset Sales that are necessary or advisable (as determined by the Issuer in good faith) in order
to consummate any acquisition of any Person, business or assets or any Investment or are of non-core assets acquired in connection with
any acquisition of any Person, business or assets or any Investment, shall not be subject to the requirements set forth in Section 3.7(a)(i)
and Section 3.7(a)(ii).


 


SECTION 3.8 Transactions with
Affiliates.


 


(a)               
The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, make any payment to, or
sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into
or make or amend any transaction or series of transactions, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for
the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Issuer involving aggregate consideration in excess of $33.0 million (each of the foregoing,
an “Affiliate Transaction”), unless:


 


(i)             
such Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are not materially less favorable to the Issuer or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary
than those that could have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person
on an arm’s-length basis; and


 


(ii)            
with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess
of $81.0 million, the Issuer delivers to the Trustee a resolution adopted in good faith by the majority of the Board of Directors
of the Issuer or any direct or indirect parent of the Issuer, approving such Affiliate Transaction, together with an Officer’s Certificate
certifying such resolution.


 






    91


    


    

 


(b)               
For purposes of Section 3.8(a), any Affiliate Transaction shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements set forth in Section
3.8(a) if such Affiliate Transaction is approved by a majority of the Disinterested Directors.


 


(c)               
The provisions of Section 3.8(a) will not apply to the following:

Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such transaction) and (b) any merger, amalgamation or consolidation of the Issuer and
any direct or indirect parent of the Issuer, provided that such parent entity shall have no material liabilities and no material
assets other than cash, Cash Equivalents and the Capital Stock of the Issuer or another parent of the Issuer and such merger, amalgamation
or consolidation is otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture;


 


(ii)

the Issuer) or guarantees in respect thereof for bona fide business purposes or in the ordinary course of business;


 


(v)           
any agreement or arrangement as in effect as of the Issue Date or as thereafter amended, supplemented or replaced (to the extent
such amendment, supplement or replacement agreement is not materially more disadvantageous to the Holders, in the good faith judgment
of the Issuer, when taken as a whole as compared to the original agreement as in effect on the Issue Date) or any transaction or payments
contemplated thereby;


 


(vi)          
the existence of, or the performance by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of its obligations under the terms of
any stockholders or similar agreement (including any registration rights agreement or purchase agreement related thereto) to which it
is a party as of the Issue Date or similar transactions, arrangements or agreements which it may enter into thereafter; provided,
however, that the existence of, or the performance by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of its obligations under,
any future amendment to any such existing transaction, arrangement or agreement or under any similar transaction, arrangement or agreement
entered into after the Issue Date shall only be permitted by this clause (vi) to the extent that the terms of any such existing transaction,
arrangement or agreement, together with all amendments thereto, taken as a whole, or new transaction, arrangement or agreement are not
otherwise more disadvantageous to the Holders in any material respect, in the good faith judgment of the Issuer, when taken as a whole
as compared with the original transaction, arrangement or agreement as in effect on the Issue Date;

of business and otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture, which are fair to the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries

otherwise participate in such Person;

(a)               
Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event with respect to any series of Notes, each Holder of such Notes of such
series will have the right to require the Issuer to purchase all or any part of such Holder’s Notes of such series at a purchase
price in cash (the “Change of Control Payment”) equal to 101.0% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid
interest, if any, to (but not including) the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record of each applicable series on
the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date falling prior to or on the purchase date), except
to the extent the Issuer has previously elected to redeem all of the Notes of such series pursuant to Article V.


 


(b)               
Prior to or within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, except to the extent that the Issuer has exercised

of Control Offer”) to each Holder of the applicable series with a copy to the Trustee or otherwise in accordance with the procedures
of DTC, describing:

principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to (but not including) the date of purchase (subject to the right
of Holders of record on a record date to receive interest on the relevant interest payment date falling prior to or on the purchase date);


 


(ii)           
 the transaction or transactions that constitute or are expected to constitute such Change of Control Triggering Event;


 


(iii)          
the purchase date (which shall be no earlier than 10 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is given, except that
such notice may be given more than 60 days prior to the purchase date if the purchase date is delayed as provided in Section 3.9(b)(ix))
(the “Change of Control Payment Date”);


 


(iv)          
that any Note not properly tendered will remain outstanding and continue to accrue interest;


 


(v)           
that unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Payment, all Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the
Change of Control Offer will cease to accrue interest on the Change of Control Payment Date;


 


(vi)          
that Holders electing to have any Notes purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender such Notes,

Control Payment Date;


 






    95


    


    

 


(vii)         
that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their tendered Notes and their election to require the Issuer to purchase such Notes;

statement that such Holder is withdrawing its tendered Notes and its election to have such Notes purchased;


 


(viii)        
that if the Issuer is purchasing less than all of the Notes, the Holders of the remaining Notes will be issued new Notes and such
new Notes will be equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered. The unpurchased portion of the Notes
must be equal to the Minimum Denomination or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof;


 


(ix)           
if such notice is delivered prior to the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, stating that the Change of Control
Offer is conditional on the occurrence of such Change of Control Triggering Event and that the Change of Control Payment Date may, in
the Issuer’s discretion, be delayed until such time as the Change of Control Triggering Event has occurred; and

Notes purchased.


 


(c)               Notwithstanding
the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.9, the Issuer will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of
Control Triggering Event if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance
with the requirements set forth in this Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all Notes
validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer.


 


(d)              
A Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event, and conditioned upon such Change of Control
Triggering Event.


 


(e)              
If Holders of not less than 90.0% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes of any series validly tender and do not
withdraw such Notes in a Change of Control Offer and the Issuer, or any third party making a Change of Control Offer in lieu of the Issuer
pursuant to this Section 3.9, purchases all of the Notes of such series validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Issuer
or such third party will have the right, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days
following such purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, to redeem all Notes of such series that remain outstanding following
such purchase at a price in cash equal to 101.0% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to but excluding the
date of the redemption.


 


(f)               
The Issuer will comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 of the Exchange Act and any other securities
laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to this Section 3.9. To the extent that the provisions of any
securities laws or regulations conflict with provisions of this Section 3.9, the Issuer will comply with the applicable securities laws
and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 3.9 by virtue of such compliance.


 






    96


    


    

 


(g)              
On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer will, to the extent permitted by law:


 


(i)            
accept for payment all Notes issued by the Issuer or portions thereof validly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

so tendered; and


 


(iii)          
deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Trustee for cancellation the Notes so accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate
to the Trustee stating that such Notes or portions thereof have been tendered to and purchased by the Issuer.


 


(h)              
The provisions of this Indenture relating to the Issuer’s obligation to make an offer to purchase the Notes as a result of
a Change of Control Triggering Event, including the definitions of “Change of Control” and “Change of Control Triggering
Event,” may be waived or modified at any time with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes
then outstanding.

Receivables Subsidiary) that is not then a Guarantor enters into any guarantee of or otherwise Incurs any Indebtedness under any
other Senior Credit Agreement or guarantees any capital markets Indebtedness of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, in
each case, with an aggregate principal amount in excess of $180.0 million (“Certain Capital Markets Debt”)
or (y) the Issuer otherwise elects to have any Restricted Subsidiary become a Guarantor, then, in each such case, the
Issuer shall cause such Restricted Subsidiary, (in the case of clause (x)) within 25 Business Days of the date that such
Indebtedness has been guaranteed, to execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture pursuant to which such Restricted
Subsidiary shall become a Guarantor under this Indenture governing the Notes providing for a Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary
that (in the case of clause (x)) ranks pari passu (on an unsecured basis) with such Indebtedness or such guarantee of
such Indebtedness under the Senior Credit Agreement or such Certain Capital Markets Debt so Incurred or provided by such Restricted
Subsidiary. A form of supplemental indenture for such purpose is attached as Exhibit D hereto.


 






    97


    


    

 


(b)               
Each Guarantee will be limited to an amount not to exceed the maximum amount that can be guaranteed by that Restricted Subsidiary
without rendering the Guarantee, as it relates to such Restricted Subsidiary, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance
or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.


 


(c)               
Each Guarantee shall be released upon the terms and in accordance with the provisions of Article X.


 


SECTION 3.11 [Reserved].


 


SECTION 3.12 Compliance Certificate; Statement
by Officers as to Default. The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Issuer
ending after the Issue Date, an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that to the best knowledge of the signer thereof on behalf of
the Issuer, the Issuer is or is not in default in the performance and observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this
Indenture (without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice provided hereunder) and, if the Issuer (through its own action
or omission or through the action or omission of any Guarantor as applicable) shall be in default, specifying all such defaults and the
nature and status thereof of which such signer may have knowledge.


 


So long as any of the Notes are outstanding, the
Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee, within 30 days upon any Officer becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default (unless such Default
or Event of Default has been cured or waived within such 30 day period), an Officer’s Certificate specifying such Default or Event
of Default and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.


 


SECTION 3.13 [Reserved].


 


SECTION 3.14 Designation of Restricted and
Unrestricted Subsidiaries.


 


(a)               
The Board of Directors of the Issuer or any direct or indirect parent of the Issuer may designate any Subsidiary of the Issuer
(including any existing Subsidiary and any newly acquired or newly formed Subsidiary of the Issuer but excluding the Issuer) to be an
Unrestricted Subsidiary unless such Subsidiary or any of its Subsidiaries owns any Equity Interests or Indebtedness of, or owns or holds
any Lien on any property of, the Issuer or any other Subsidiary of the Issuer that is not a Subsidiary of the Subsidiary to be so designated;
provided, however, that the Subsidiary to be so designated and its Subsidiaries do not at the time of designation have any
Indebtedness pursuant to which the lender or investor has recourse to any of the assets of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;
provided, further, however, that either:


 


(i)            
the Subsidiary to be so designated has total consolidated assets of $1,000 or less; or


 


(ii)           
if such Subsidiary has consolidated assets greater than $1,000, then such designation would be permitted under Section 3.4.


 






    98


    


    

 


(b)               
The Board of Directors of the Issuer or any direct or indirect parent of the Issuer may designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to
be a Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that immediately after giving effect to such designation and any related
transactions:


 


(x)          (1)       the Issuer could Incur
$1.00 of additional Indebtedness as Ratio Debt; or


 


(2)       the
Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio would be equal to or greater than such ratio immediately prior to such designation; and


 


(y)           no
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.


 


(c)               
Any such designation by the Board of Directors of the Issuer or any direct or indirect parent of the Issuer shall be evidenced
to the Trustee by promptly filing with the Trustee a copy of the resolution of the Board of Directors of the Issuer or any direct or indirect
parent of the Issuer giving effect to such designation and an Officer’s Certificate certifying that such designation complied with
this Section 3.14.


 


SECTION 3.15 Covenant Suspension.


 


(a)                If
on any date following the Issue Date (i) the Notes have Investment Grade Ratings from both Rating Agencies, and
(ii) no Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture (the occurrence of the events described in the
foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) being collectively referred to as a “Covenant Suspension Event”), the Guarantees
will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged and the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries will not be subject
to the covenants or provisions contained in Section 3.3, Section 3.4, Section 3.6, Section 3.7, Section 3.8, Section 3.10, Section
4.1(a)(iv), Section 4.1(a)(v) and Section 4.1(b) (collectively, the “Suspended Covenants”).


 


(b)              
In the event that the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries are not subject to the Suspended Covenants under this Indenture for
any period of time pursuant to Section 3.15(a), and on any subsequent date (the “Reversion Date”) the Issuer obtains
actual knowledge that one or both of the Rating Agencies has withdrawn their Investment Grade Rating or downgraded the rating assigned
to the Notes below an Investment Grade Rating, then the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries will thereafter again be subject to the
Suspended Covenants under this Indenture with respect to future events. The period of time between the occurrence of a Covenant Suspension
Event and the Reversion Date is referred to in this Indenture as the “Suspension Period.”


 


(c)               
Upon the occurrence of a Covenant Suspension Event, the amount of Excess Proceeds from Net Cash Proceeds shall be reset at zero.


 


(d)               
With respect to Restricted Payments made after the Reversion Date, the amount of Restricted Payments made will be calculated as
though Section 3.4 had been in effect prior to, but not during, the Suspension Period; provided that no Subsidiaries may be designated
as Unrestricted Subsidiaries during the Suspension Period, unless such designation would have complied with Section 3.4 as if Section
3.4 were in effect during such period. All Indebtedness Incurred, or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock issued, during the Suspension
Period will be classified to have been Incurred or issued pursuant to Section 3.3(b)(iii). In addition, for purposes of Section 3.8,
all agreements and arrangements entered into by the Issuer and any Restricted Subsidiary with an Affiliate of the Issuer during the Suspension
Period prior to such Reversion Date will be deemed to have been entered into on or prior to the Issue Date and for purposes of Section
3.6, all contracts entered into during the Suspension Period prior to such Reversion Date that contain any of the restrictions contemplated
by Section 3.6 will be deemed to have been existing on the Issue Date.


 






    99


    


    

 


(e)               
During the Suspension Period, any reference in the definitions of “Permitted Liens” and “Unrestricted Subsidiary”
to Section 3.3 or any provision thereof shall be construed as if Section 3.3 were in effect during the Suspension Period.


 


(f)                
Notwithstanding that the Suspended Covenants may be reinstated, no Default or Event of Default will be deemed to have occurred
as a result of any actions taken by the Issuer or any Subsidiary (including for the avoidance of doubt any failure to comply with the
Suspended Covenants) or other events that occurred during any Suspension Period (or upon termination of the Suspension Period or after
that time arising out of events that occurred or actions taken during the Suspension Period) and the Issuer and any Subsidiary will be
permitted, without causing a Default or Event of Default or breach of any kind under this Indenture, to honor, comply with or otherwise
perform any contractual commitments or obligations entered into during a Suspension Period following a Reversion Date and to consummate
the transactions contemplated thereby.


 


(g)                The
Trustee will have no obligation to (i) independently determine or verify if such events have occurred,
(ii) make any determination regarding the impact of actions taken during the Suspension Period on the Issuer and its
Subsidiaries’ future compliance with their covenants or (iii) notify the Holders of any Covenant Suspension Event
or Reversion Date. The Issuer should give the Trustee written notice of any Covenant Suspension Event not later than five Business
Days after such Covenant Suspension Event has occurred, but failure to so notify the Trustee shall not invalidate any Covenant
Suspension Event and shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default by the Issuer. In the absence of such notice, the Trustee
may assume the Suspended Covenants apply and are in full force and effect. The Issuer should give the Trustee written notice of any
occurrence of a Reversion Date not later than five Business Days after such Reversion Date, but failure to so notify the Trustee
shall not invalidate the occurrence of the Reversion Date and shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default by the Issuer.
After any such notice of the occurrence of a Reversion Date, the Trustee shall assume the Suspended Covenants apply and are in full
force and effect.

or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties or assets in one or more related
transactions to any Person unless:


 


(i)

is a corporation, partnership or limited liability company organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state thereof,
the District of Columbia, or any territory thereof (the Issuer or such Person, as the case may be, being herein called the “Successor
Company”);


 






    100


    


    

 


(ii)           
the Successor Company (if other than the Issuer) expressly assumes all the obligations of the Issuer under this Indenture and the
Notes pursuant to supplemental indentures or other documents or instruments;


 


(iii)          
immediately after giving effect to such transaction (and treating any Indebtedness that becomes an obligation of the Successor
Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries as a result of such transaction as having been Incurred by the Successor Company or such
Restricted Subsidiary at the time of such transaction), no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;


 


(iv)          
immediately after giving Pro Forma Effect to such transaction and any related transactions, either:


 


(1)               
 the Issuer (or, if applicable, the Successor Company) would be permitted to Incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness as
Ratio Debt; or


 


(2)               
the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the Issuer (or the Successor Company, if applicable) and its Restricted Subsidiaries would
be equal to or greater than such ratio for the Issuer (or the Successor Company, if applicable) and its Restricted Subsidiaries immediately
prior to giving Pro Forma Effect to such transaction and any related transactions;


 


(v)           
if the Successor Company is other than the Issuer, each Guarantor, unless it is the other party to the transactions described above,
shall have by supplemental indenture confirmed that its Guarantee shall apply to such Person’s obligations under this Indenture
and the Notes; and


 


(vi)          
the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such
consolidation, merger, amalgamation or disposition complies with the provisions described in this Section 4.1(a); provided that
(x) in giving such opinion such counsel may rely on an Officer’s Certificate as to compliance with the foregoing clauses
(iii) and (iv) of this Section 4.1(a) and as to matters of fact, and (y) no Opinion of Counsel will be required for a transaction
described in the second sentence of the immediately following paragraph.


 






    101


    


    

 



 


The Successor Company will succeed to, and be substituted
for, the Issuer under this Indenture and the Notes, and the Issuer will automatically be released and discharged from its obligations
under this Indenture and the Notes. Notwithstanding the foregoing clauses (iii) and (iv) of this Section 4.1(a), (a) the Issuer
or any Guarantor may consolidate or amalgamate with, merge into or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or
part of its properties and assets to the Issuer or any Guarantor, (b) the Issuer may merge, consolidate or amalgamate with
an Affiliate of the Issuer incorporated or organized solely for the purpose of reincorporating or reorganizing the Issuer in another state
of the United States, the District of Columbia or any territory of the United States to the extent the principal amount of Indebtedness
of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries is not increased thereby (unless such increase is permitted by this Indenture), (c) the
Issuer may convert (including by way of merger, consolidation or amalgamation) into a corporation, partnership, limited partnership, limited
liability company or trust organized or existing under the laws of a jurisdiction in the United States, (d) the Issuer or
Guarantor may change its name and (e) any Restricted Subsidiary may merge, amalgamate or consolidate into the Issuer. Any
Investment expressly permitted under the definition of “Permitted Investments” or otherwise pursuant to Section 3.4 may be
structured as a merger, amalgamation or consolidation.


 


(b)                 Subject
to Section 10.2, each Guarantor will not, and the Issuer will not permit any Guarantor to, consolidate, merge or amalgamate with or
into or wind up into (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving corporation), or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or
otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties or assets in one or more related transactions to, any Person unless
such consolidation, merger, amalgamation, winding up, sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition is made in
compliance with Section 3.7 or does not constitute an Asset Sale (other than pursuant to clause (b) of the definition of
 “Asset Sale”), or unless:


 


(A)            
such Guarantor is the surviving Person or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation, merger, amalgamation or winding
up (if other than such Guarantor) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition will have been made
is a corporation, partnership, limited partnership, limited liability company or trust organized or existing under the laws of the United
States, any state thereof, the District of Columbia, or any territory thereof (such Guarantor or such Person, as the case may be, being
herein called the “Successor Guarantor”);


 


(B)             
the Successor Guarantor (if other than such Guarantor) expressly assumes all the obligations of such Guarantor under this Indenture
and such Guarantor’s Guarantee pursuant to a supplemental indenture or other documents or instruments; and


 


(C)             
the Successor Guarantor (if other than such Guarantor) shall have delivered or caused to be delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s
Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger, amalgamation or disposition complies with the provisions
described in this Section 4.1(b); provided that (x) in giving such opinion such counsel may rely on an Officer’s
Certificate as to matters of fact, and (y) no Opinion of Counsel will be required for a transaction described in the second
sentence of the immediately following paragraph.


 






    102


     


    

 


Subject to Article X, the Successor Guarantor will
succeed to, and be substituted for, such Guarantor under this Indenture and such Guarantor’s Guarantee, and such Guarantor will
automatically be released and discharged from its obligations under this Indenture and such Guarantor’s Guarantee. Notwithstanding
the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.1(b), (1) a Guarantor may merge, consolidate or amalgamate with an Affiliate of
the Issuer incorporated or organized solely for the purpose of reincorporating or reorganizing such Guarantor in another state of the
United States, the District of Columbia or any territory of the United States, to the extent the principal amount of Indebtedness of the
Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries is not increased thereby (unless such increase is permitted by this Indenture), (2) a
Guarantor may consolidate, merge or amalgamate with or into or wind up into, or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose
of all or substantially all of its properties and assets to, another Guarantor or the Issuer, (3) a Guarantor may convert
(including by way of merger, consolidation or amalgamation) into a corporation, partnership, limited partnership, limited liability company
or trust organized or existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of organization of such Guarantor or the laws of a jurisdiction in the
United States, (4) a Guarantor may change its name and (5) any Restricted Subsidiary may merge, amalgamate or
consolidate into any Guarantor; provided, in the case of this clause (5), that the surviving Person is or becomes a Guarantor upon
consummation of such merger, amalgamation or consolidation.


 


(c)                 For
purposes of Section 4.1, the sale, lease, conveyance, assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the
properties and assets of one or more Subsidiaries of the Issuer, which properties and assets, if held by the Issuer instead of such
Subsidiaries, would constitute all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Issuer on a consolidated basis, shall be
deemed to be the transfer of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Issuer.


 


ARTICLE V


 

Redemption of Notes


 


SECTION 5.1 Applicability of Article. Notes
of or within any series that are redeemable in whole or in part before their Stated Maturity shall be redeemable in accordance with their
terms and (except as otherwise specified for Notes of any series in the applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture, as contemplated by Section
2.4) in accordance with this Article V.


 


SECTION 5.2 Right of Redemption.


 


(a)                
Notes of any series may be redeemed, in whole at any time, or in part from time to time, subject to the conditions and at the Redemption
Prices set forth in Paragraph 6 of the applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture, which are hereby incorporated by reference and made a
part of this Indenture, together with accrued and unpaid interest to (but not including) the applicable redemption date.


 


(b)                
In connection with any redemption of Notes (including with the net cash proceeds of an Equity Offering), any such redemption or
notice thereof may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to the satisfaction (or waiver by the Issuer in its sole discretion)
of one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, consummation of any related Equity Offering or Change of Control Triggering
Event. In addition, if such redemption or notice is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice may state
that, in the Issuer’s discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied
(or, waived by the Issuer in its sole discretion), or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that
any or all such conditions shall not have been (or, in the Issuer’s sole determination, may not be) satisfied (or waived by the
Issuer in its sole discretion) by the redemption date, or by the redemption date so delayed.


 






    103


     


    

 


SECTION 5.3 Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee
of Optional and Mandatory Redemptions.


 


(a)                 If
the Issuer elects to redeem less than all of the Notes of any series pursuant to Section 5.2, the Issuer should furnish to the
Trustee, at least three Business Days for Global Notes and 10 calendar days for Physical Notes before notice of redemption is
required to be sent or caused to be sent to Holders pursuant to Section 5.4, an Officer’s Certificate setting forth
(i) the paragraph or subparagraph of such Note and/or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the redemption shall
occur, (ii) the Redemption Date, (iii) the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and
(iv) the Redemption Price, but failure to so notify the Trustee shall not invalidate any notice given in accordance with
Section 5.4, and shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default by the Issuer. The Issuer may also include a request in
such Officer’s Certificate that the Trustee give the notice of redemption in the Issuer’s name and at its expense and
setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in Section 5.4. The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee such
documentation and records as shall enable the Trustee to select the Notes to be redeemed pursuant to this Section 5.3.


 


(b)                
Unless otherwise specified for Notes of any series in the applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture, as contemplated by Section 2.4,
if less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee shall select Notes for redemption in compliance with the requirements
of the depository and the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which such Notes are listed (so long as the Trustee knows
of such listing), or if such Notes are not so listed, in accordance with the applicable procedures of the depository on a pro rata basis,
by lot or by such other method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate (and in such manner as complies with applicable legal requirements)
in integral multiples of $1,000; provided, that the selection of Notes for redemption shall not result in a Holder with a principal
amount of Notes less than the Minimum Denomination. If any Note is to be purchased or redeemed in part only, the notice of purchase or
redemption relating to such Note shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof that has been or is to be purchased or redeemed.
A new Note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation
of the original Note. On and after the applicable Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for
redemption so long as the Issuer has deposited with the Paying Agent funds sufficient to pay the principal of and premium, if any, plus
accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes to be redeemed.


 


(c)                
The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer in writing of the Notes selected for redemption and, in the case of any Notes selected
for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.


 


(d)                
For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to redemption of Notes shall
relate, in the case of any Note redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Note which has
been or is to be redeemed.


 






    104


     


    

 


SECTION 5.4 Notice of Redemption. Unless
otherwise specified for Notes of any series in the applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture, as contemplated by Section 2.4, the Issuer
shall give or cause to be given in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary, with a copy to the Trustee, a notice of redemption
to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed not less than 10 nor more than 60 days prior to a date fixed for redemption (a “Redemption
Date”). At the Issuer’s written request delivered at least 15 days (or such shorter period as shall be reasonably satisfactory
to the Trustee) prior to the Redemption Date, the Trustee may give notice of redemption in the Issuer’s name and at the Issuer’s
expense; provided, however, that redemption notices may be given more than 60 days prior to a Redemption Date, but not more
than a year, prior to such event, if the notice is issued in connection with Article VIII, or if the redemption date is delayed as provided
for in Section 5.2(b).


 


All notices of redemption shall be prepared by
the Issuer and shall state:


 


(a)              
the Redemption Date,


 


(b)             
the Redemption Price and the amount of accrued interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date payable as provided in Section 5.6,
if any,


 


(c)              
if less than all outstanding Notes are to be redeemed, the identification of the particular Notes (or portion thereof) to be redeemed,
as well as the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be redeemed and the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be outstanding after
such partial redemption,


 


(d)             
in case any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice which relates to such Note shall state that on and after the Redemption
Date, upon surrender of such Note, the Holder shall receive, without charge, a new Note or Notes of authorized denominations for the principal
amount thereof remaining unredeemed,


 


(e)              
that on the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price (and accrued interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date payable as provided
in Section 5.6, if any) shall become due and payable upon each such Note, or the portion thereof, to be redeemed, and, unless the Issuer
defaults in making the redemption payment, that interest on Notes called for redemption (or the portion thereof) shall cease to accrue
on and after said date,


 


(f)              
the place or places where such Notes are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest, if any,


 


(g)             
the name and address of the Paying Agent,


 


(h)             
that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the Redemption Price,


 


(i)              
the CUSIP number, and that no representation is made as to the accuracy or correctness of the CUSIP number, if any, listed in such
notice or printed on the Notes, and


 


(j)               
the Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Notes are to be redeemed.


 






    105


     


    

 


SECTION 5.5 Deposit of Redemption Price.
Prior to 12:00 p.m. New York City time, on any Redemption Date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or,
if the Issuer is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 2.18) an amount of money sufficient
to pay the Redemption Price of, and accrued interest on, all the Notes which are to be redeemed on that date.


 


SECTION 5.6 Notes Payable on Redemption
Date. Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Notes so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due
and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified (together with accrued interest, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption
Date), and from and after such date (unless the Issuer shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest, if
any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date) such Notes shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Note for redemption
in accordance with said notice, such Note shall be paid by the Issuer at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest, if
any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (subject to the rights of Holders of record on the relevant Regular Record Date to
receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date).


 


If any Note called for redemption shall not be
so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal (and premium, if any) shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption
Date at the rate borne by the Notes.


 


If a Redemption Date is on or after a Regular Record
Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, the accrued and unpaid interest, if any, shall be paid to the Person in whose
name the Note is registered at the close of business on such Regular Record Date, and no further interest shall be payable to Holders
whose Notes shall be subject to redemption by the Issuer.


 


SECTION 5.7 Notes Redeemed in Part. Any
Note which is to be redeemed only in part (pursuant to the provisions of this Article) shall be surrendered at the office or agency of
the Issuer maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 2.8 (with, if the Issuer so requires due endorsement by, or a written instrument
of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer duly executed by, the Holder thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in
writing), and the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee upon receipt of an Authentication Order shall authenticate and make available
for delivery to the Holder of such Note at the expense of the Issuer, a new Note or Notes, of any authorized denomination as requested
by such Holder, in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Note so surrendered;
provided that each such new Note shall be in the Minimum Denomination and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.


 


SECTION 5.8 Offer to Repurchase. In the
event that, pursuant to Section 3.7, the Issuer is required to commence an offer to all Holders to purchase the Notes, including an Asset
Sale Offer (an “Offer to Repurchase”), it shall follow the procedures specified below.


 






    106


     


    

 


(a)                
The Offer to Repurchase shall remain open for the period provided for in Section 3.7(h) (the “Offer Period”).
No later than five Business Days after the termination of the Offer Period (the “Purchase Date”), the Issuer shall
apply all Excess Proceeds or Net Cash Proceeds, as applicable (the “Offer Amount”), to the purchase of Notes and such
Pari Passu Indebtedness, if any (in each instance, on a pro rata basis, if applicable) or, if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered,
all Notes and other Indebtedness tendered in response to the Offer to Repurchase. Payment for any Notes so purchased shall be made pursuant
to Section 3.1.


 


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


 


(c)                
Upon the commencement of an Offer to Repurchase, the Issuer shall send electronically, or mail by first class mail, a notice to
the Trustee and each of the Holders. The notice shall contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender
Notes pursuant to the Offer to Repurchase. The notice, which shall govern the terms of the Offer to Repurchase, shall state:


 


(i)               
that the Offer to Repurchase is being made pursuant to this Section 5.8 and Section 3.7, and the length of time the Offer to Repurchase
shall remain open;


 


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


 


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


 


(iv)            
that, unless the Issuer defaults in making such payment, any Note accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer to Repurchase shall
cease to accrue interest after the Purchase Date;


 


(v)             
that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to an Offer to Repurchase may elect to have Notes purchased in the Minimum
Denomination or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof only;


 


(vi)            
that Holders electing to have Notes purchased pursuant to any Offer to Repurchase shall be required to surrender the Note, with
the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to the Notes completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer,
to the Issuer, a Depositary, if appointed by the Issuer, or a Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice at least three Business
Days before the Purchase Date;


 


(vii)            
that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the Issuer or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives, not
later than on the expiration of the Offer Period, a facsimile or electronic transmission, or letter setting forth the name of the Holder,
the principal amount of Notes the Holder delivered for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such
Notes purchased;


 






    107


     


    

 


(viii)          
that, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes and, if applicable, Pari Passu Indebtedness, if any, surrendered by Holders thereof
exceeds the Offer Amount, the Trustee shall select the Notes and, if applicable, the Issuer shall select such Pari Passu Indebtedness
to be purchased or prepaid, on a pro rata basis based on the principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness, if any, surrendered
(with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Issuer so that only Notes in the Minimum Denomination, or integral multiples
of $1,000 in excess thereof, shall be purchased); and


 


(ix)             
 that Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part shall be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion
of the Notes surrendered (or transferred by book-entry transfer).


 


(d)                
On or before the Purchase Date, the Issuer shall, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary,
the Offer Amount of Notes or portions thereof tendered pursuant to the Offer to Repurchase, or if less than the Offer Amount has been
tendered, all Notes tendered, and the Issuer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together
with an Officer’s Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Issuer in accordance
with the terms of this Section 5.8. The Issuer or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, shall promptly (but in any case not later than
five days after the Purchase Date) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes tendered
by such Holder and accepted by the Issuer for purchase, and the Issuer shall promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee, upon written
request from the Issuer, shall authenticate and mail or deliver (or cause to be transferred by book entry) such new Note to such Holder,
in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered. Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered
by the Issuer to the Holder thereof. The Issuer shall publicly announce the results of the Offer to Repurchase on the Purchase Date.


 


ARTICLE VI


 


Defaults and Remedies


 


SECTION 6.1 Events of Default. Each of the
following is an Event of Default:


 


(i)               
a default in any payment of interest on any Note when due continued for 30 days;


 


(ii)              
a default in the payment of principal or premium, if any, of any Note when due at its Stated Maturity, upon optional redemption,
upon required purchase, upon acceleration or otherwise;


 


(iii)             
the failure by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to comply for 60 days after receipt of the written notice referred
to below with any of its obligations, covenants or agreements (other than a default pursuant to clause (i) or clause (ii) of this Section
6.1) contained in the Notes or this Indenture; provided that in the case of a failure to comply with Section 3.2, such period of
continuance of such default or breach shall be 180 days after written notice described in this clause (iii) has been given;


 






    108


     


    

 


(iv)             the
failure by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary to pay the principal amount of any Indebtedness for borrowed money (other than
Indebtedness for borrowed money owing to the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer) within any applicable grace period
after final maturity or the acceleration of any such Indebtedness by the holders thereof because of a default, in each case, if the
total amount of such Indebtedness unpaid at final maturity or accelerated exceeds $120.0 million or its foreign currency
equivalent;


 


(v)             
the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:


 


(1)               
commences a voluntary case;


 


(2)               
consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in any voluntary case;


 


(3)               
consents to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for any substantial part of its property; or


 


(4)               
makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors;


 


or takes any comparable action under any foreign laws relating
to insolvency;


 


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


 


(1)               
is for relief against the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case;


 


(2)               
appoints a Custodian of the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary or for any substantial part of its property; or


 


(3)               
orders the winding up or liquidation of the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary;


 


or any similar relief is granted under any foreign laws and
the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 days;


 


(vii)           
failure by the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary to pay final and non-appealable judgments aggregating in excess of $120.0 million
or its foreign currency equivalent (net of any amounts which are covered by enforceable insurance policies issued by solvent insurance
companies), which judgments are not discharged, waived or stayed for a period of 60 days after such judgment becomes final and, in the
event such judgment is covered by insurance, an enforcement proceeding has been commenced by any creditor upon such judgment or decree
which is not promptly stayed; or


 


(viii)          
the Guarantee of a Significant Subsidiary ceases to be in full force and effect (except as contemplated by the terms thereof or
of this Indenture), or any Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary denies in writing that it has any further liability under its Guarantee
or gives written notice to such effect, other than by reason of the termination or discharge of this Indenture or the release of any such
Guarantee in accordance with this Indenture, and such Default continues for 10 days.


 






    109


     


    

 


The foregoing will constitute Events of Default
whatever the reason for any such Event of Default and whether it is voluntary or involuntary or is effected by operation of law or pursuant
to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body.


 


However, a default under Section 6.1(iii) will
not constitute an Event of Default until the Trustee or the Holders of at least 30.0% in principal amount of outstanding Notes (which
contain such defaults, or such other percentage of principal of outstanding Notes containing such default as specified for Notes of any
series in the applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture) notify in writing the Issuer of the default and such default is not cured within
the times specified in Section 6.1(iii) after receipt of such notice.


 


The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge
of any Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes unless a written notice of such Default or Event of Default shall have been
given to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee by the Issuer or any Holder of Notes.


 


SECTION 6.2 Acceleration. If an Event of
Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (v) or (vi) of Section 6.1 with respect to the Issuer) occurs and is continuing,
unless otherwise specified for Notes of any series in the applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture, as contemplated by Section 2.4, the
Trustee or the Holders of at least 30.0% in principal amount of outstanding Notes (which contain such defaults) by written notice to the
Issuer (and if given by the Holders, the Trustee) may declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued but unpaid interest on all
the Notes to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal and interest will be due and payable immediately. If an Event
of Default arising from Section 6.1(v) or Section 6.1(vi), with respect to the Issuer, occurs, unless otherwise specified for Notes of
any series in the applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture, as contemplated by Section 2.4, the principal of, premium, if any, and interest
on all the Notes (which contain such defaults) will become immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part
of the Trustee or any Holders.


 


SECTION 6.3 Other Remedies. If an Event
of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal of or interest on
the Notes (which contain such defaults) or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes, this Indenture (including sums owed
to the Trustee and its agents and counsel) and the Guarantees.


 


The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it
does not possess any of the Notes (which contain such defaults) or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission
by the Trustee or any Holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy
or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. No remedy is exclusive of any other remedy. All available remedies
are cumulative.


 






    110


     


    

 


SECTION 6.4 Waiver of Past Defaults.
The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (which contain such defaults) by notice to the
Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes (which contain such defaults), waive, rescind or cancel any declaration of
an existing or past Default or Event of Default and its consequences under this Indenture if such waiver, rescission or cancellation
would not conflict with any judgment or decree, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest on, or
the principal of, the applicable Notes (other than such nonpayment of principal or interest that has become due as a result of such
acceleration). Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed
to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair
any right consequent thereon.


 


In the event of any Event of Default arising from
Section 6.1(iv), such Event of Default and all consequences thereof (excluding, however, any resulting payment default) will be annulled,
waived and rescinded, automatically and without any action by the Trustee or the Holders, if prior to 20 days after such Event of Default
arose, the Issuer delivers an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee stating that (x) the Indebtedness or guarantee that
is the basis for such Event of Default has been discharged or (y) the holders thereof have rescinded or waived the acceleration,
notice or action (as the case may be) giving rise to such Event of Default or (z) the default that is the basis for such Event
of Default has otherwise been cured.


 


SECTION 6.5 Control by Majority. The Holders
of a majority in principal amount of outstanding Notes (which contain the applicable default) may direct the time, method and place of
conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. The Trustee,
however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial
to the rights of any other Holder or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability (it being understood that the Trustee has no
duty to determine whether any such direction is prejudicial to any Holder). Prior to taking any action under this Indenture, the Trustee
will be entitled to security or indemnification satisfactory to the Trustee in its sole discretion against all losses, liabilities and
expenses that may be caused by taking or not taking such action.


 


SECTION 6.6 Limitation on Suits. In case
an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under this
Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders unless such Holders have provided the Trustee with indemnity or security satisfactory
to it against any loss, liability or expense. Except to institute suit for the enforcement of payment of principal and interest on any
Note of such Holder or after the respective Stated Maturity for such principal or interest payment dates for such interest expressed in
such Note, no Holder may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless:


 


(i)               
such Holder (which holds Notes containing such default) has previously given the Trustee written notice that an Event of Default
is continuing;


 


(ii)               Holders
of at least 30.0% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes (which contain such defaults, or such other percentage
of principal of outstanding Notes containing such default as specified for Notes of any series in the applicable Notes Supplemental
Indenture) have requested in writing that the Trustee pursue the remedy;


 






    111


     


    

 


(iii)             
such Holders have offered, and if requested, provided to, the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it in respect
of any loss, liability or expense;


 


(iv)            
the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity;
and


 


(v)             
the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes (which contain such default) have not given the Trustee
a written direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period.


 


SECTION 6.7 [Reserved].


 


SECTION 6.8 Collection Suit by Trustee.
If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(i) or (ii) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name
and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer for the whole amount then due and owing (together with interest on any unpaid interest
to the extent lawful) and the amounts provided for in Section 7.6.


 


SECTION 6.9 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.
The Trustee may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of
the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and
counsel) and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer, its Subsidiaries or their respective creditors or
properties and, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, may vote on behalf of the Holders (pursuant to the written direction
of Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes) in any election of a trustee in bankruptcy or other Person
performing similar functions, and any Custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make payments to
the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee
any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel, and
any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.6. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or
consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan or reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the
Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in such proceeding.


 


SECTION 6.10 Priorities. The Trustee shall
pay out any money or property received by it in the following order:


 


First: to the Trustee for amounts
due under Section 7.6;


 


Second: to Holders for amounts
due and unpaid on the Notes for principal, premium, if any, and interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according
to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for principal, premium, if any, and interest, respectively; and


 






    112


     


    

 


Third: to the Issuer or, to the
extent the Trustee receives any amount for any Guarantor, to such Guarantor as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct.


 


The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date
for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section 6.10. At least 15 days before such record date, the Issuer (or the Trustee) shall
send to each Holder and the Trustee a notice that states the record date, the payment date and amount to be paid.


 


SECTION 6.11 Undertaking for Costs. In any
suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted
by it as Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs
of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against
any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This
Section 6.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee or a suit by Holders of more than 10.0% in outstanding principal amount of the Notes.

(a)                
If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture
and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a prudent Person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct
of such Person’s own affairs; provided that if an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee shall not be under
any obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under this Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees at the request or direction
of any of the Holders unless such Holders have offered, and if requested, provided to, the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory
to the Trustee in its sole discretion against any loss, liability or expense it may incur.


 


(b)                
Except during the continuance of an Event of Default of which a Responsible Officer has actual knowledge, the Trustee:


 


(i)               
 undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no implied covenants
or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and


 


(ii)              
in the absence of gross negligence or bad faith on its part, may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness
of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee under this Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees,
as applicable. However, in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provisions hereof are specifically required to be
furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall examine such certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements
of this Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees as the case may be (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations
or other facts stated therein).


 






    113


     


    

 


(c)                
The Trustee shall not be relieved from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful
misconduct, except that:


 


(i)              
this Section 7.1(c) does not limit the effect of Section 7.1(b);


 


(ii)             
the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer or Responsible Officers unless
it is proved in a final non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the
pertinent facts; and


 


(iii)            
the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction
received by it pursuant to Section 6.5.

Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.


 


(f)                 
No provision of this Indenture, the Notes or the Guarantees shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise
incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or thereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights
or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds to believe that repayment of such funds or indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk
or liability is not reasonably assured to it.


 


(g)                
Every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee
shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 7.1.


 


(h)                
The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request
or direction of any of the Holders unless such Holders shall have offered, and if requested, provided to, the Trustee security or indemnity
satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) and liabilities that might be
incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.


 


SECTION 7.2 Rights of Trustee.


 


(a)                
The Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be protected in acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion,
notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond or any other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or
presented by the proper Person or Persons. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in such document.


 






    114


     


    

 


(b)                
Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both.
The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on an Officer’s Certificate or
Opinion of Counsel.


 


(c)                
The Trustee may act through its attorneys, custodians, nominees and agents and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence
of or for the supervision of any agent, custodians, nominees or attorney appointed with due care.


 


(d)                
The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within
its rights or powers, provided that such conduct does not constitute willful misconduct or negligence as determined in a final
non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction.


 


(e)                
The Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection, and the advice or Opinion of Counsel with respect to legal matters relating
to this Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect to any
action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder or under the Notes and the Guarantees in good faith and in accordance with the advice
or opinion of such counsel.


 


(f)                 
The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into any statement, warranty or representation, or the facts or matters
stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond or other paper
or document made or in connection with this Indenture; moreover, the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into (i) the
performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein, (ii) the occurrence
of any default, or the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Indenture or any other agreement, instrument or
document, or (iii) the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice,
request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Trustee,
in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall
determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Issuer,
personally or by agent or attorney and shall incur no liability or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation.


 


(g)                
[Reserved].


 


(h)                 In
no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, incidental, punitive or consequential loss or damage of
any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the
likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.


 


(i)                 
The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to
be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and each agent, custodian
and other Person employed to act hereunder.


 






    115


     


    

 


(j)                 
The Trustee may request that the Issuer deliver a certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers
authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture.


 


(k)                
The Trustee shall not have any duty (i) to see to any recording, filing, or depositing of this Indenture or any agreement
referred to herein, or to see to the maintenance of any such recording or filing or depositing or to any rerecording, re-filing or redepositing
of any thereof or (ii) to see to any insurance.


 


(l)                 
The permissive rights of the Trustee enumerated in this Indenture shall not be construed as a duty.


 


SECTION 7.3 Individual Rights of Trustee.


 


(a)                
Each of the Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with
the Issuer, the Guarantors or their Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Paying Agent, Note Registrar,
co-registrar or co-Paying Agent may do the same with like rights. However, the Trustee must comply with Section 7.9.


 


(b)                
In addition, the Trustee shall be permitted to engage in transactions with the Issuer; provided, however, that if
the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest the Trustee must (i) eliminate such conflict within 90 days of acquiring such
conflicting interest, (ii) apply to the SEC for permission to continue acting as Trustee or (iii) resign.


 


(c)                
To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have a conflicting interest by virtue of being a
trustee under this Indenture with respect to Initial Notes and Additional Notes, or a trustee under any other indenture between the Issuer
and the Trustee.


 


SECTION 7.4 Disclaimer. The Trustee shall
not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture, the Notes or the Guarantees, it shall
not be accountable for the Issuer’s use of the Notes or the proceeds from the Notes, and it shall not be responsible for any statement
of the Issuer in this Indenture or in any document issued in connection with the sale of the Notes or in the Notes other than the Trustee’s
certificate of authentication or for the use or application of any funds received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee.


 


SECTION 7.5 Notice of Defaults. If a
Default occurs and is continuing and a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has received written notice thereof, the Trustee shall
deliver to each Holder notice of the Default within 90 days after it is known to the Trustee. Except in the case of a Default in the
payment of principal of, or premium (if any) or interest on, any Note, the Trustee may withhold notice if and to the extent the
Trustee in good faith determines that withholding notice is in the interests of the Holders of the Notes.

SECTION 7.6 Compensation and Indemnity.
The Issuer shall pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation for their services as the parties shall agree in writing from
time to time. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuer
shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including, but not limited
to, costs of collection, costs of preparing and reviewing reports, certificates and other documents, costs of preparation and mailing
of notices to Holders and reasonable costs of counsel, in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the
reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee’s agents, counsel, accountants and experts. The
Issuer shall indemnify the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder (including Paying Agent and Note Registrar),
and each of their officers, directors, employees, counsel and agents, against any and all loss, liability or expense (including, but not
limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by it in connection with the administration of this trust and the
performance of their duties hereunder and under the Notes and the Guarantees, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture
(including this Section 7.6), the Notes and the Guarantees and of defending itself against any claims (whether asserted by any Holder,
the Issuer or otherwise). The Trustee shall notify the Issuer promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity, provided that
failure by the Trustee to so notify the Issuer shall not relieve the Issuer of its obligations hereunder. The Issuer shall defend such
claim and the Trustee may have separate counsel and the Issuer shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. The Issuer
need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Trustee as a result of its own willful
misconduct, negligence or bad faith.


 


To secure the Issuer’s payment obligations
in this Section 7.6, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee other
than money or property held in trust to pay principal of and interest on particular Notes. The right of the Trustee to receive payment
of any amounts due under this Section 7.6 shall not be subordinate to any other liability or indebtedness of the Issuer.


 


The Issuer’s obligations pursuant to this
Section 7.6 and any lien arising hereunder shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and the resignation or removal
of the Trustee. When the Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 6.1(v) or (vi) with respect
to the Issuer, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.


 


Pursuant to Section 10.1, the obligations of the
Issuer hereunder are jointly and severally guaranteed by the Guarantors.


 


SECTION 7.7 Replacement of Trustee.
The Trustee may resign at any time upon at least 30 days’ notice by so notifying the Issuer in writing. The Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Issuer and the Trustee in writing and may
appoint a successor Trustee. The Issuer shall remove the Trustee if:


 


(i)              
the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.9;


 


(ii)             
the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent;


 


(iii)             
a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or


 


(iv)            
the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.


 






    117


     


    

 


If the Trustee resigns or is removed by the Issuer
or by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes and such Holders do not reasonably promptly appoint a successor Trustee,
or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason (the Trustee in such event being referred to herein as the “retiring
Trustee”), the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee.


 


A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance
of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuer. Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become
effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee
shall send a notice of its succession to Holders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the
successor Trustee, subject to the lien provided for in Section 7.6. All costs reasonably incurred in connection with any such resignation
or removal hereunder shall be borne by the Issuer.


 


If a successor Trustee does not take office within
60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee at the expense of the Issuer or the Holders of at least
10.0% in principal amount of the Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.


 


If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.9,
unless the Trustee’s duty to resign is stayed, any Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the
Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.


 


Notwithstanding the replacement of the Trustee
pursuant to this Section 7.7, the Issuer’s obligations under Section 7.6 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.


 


SECTION 7.8 Successor Trustee by Merger.
If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets
to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation without any further act shall be the
successor Trustee.


 


In case at the time such successor or successors
by merger, conversion or consolidation to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture, any of the Notes shall have
been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor
trustee, and deliver such Notes so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor
to the Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Trustee;
and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Notes or in this Indenture provided that
the certificate of the Trustee shall have.


 


SECTION 7.9 Eligibility; Disqualification.
The Trustee shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50 million as set forth in its most recent filed annual report
of condition.


 






    118


     


    

 


SECTION 7.10 Limitation on Duty of Trustee.
The Trustee shall not have any duty to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms of this Indenture,
the Notes and the Guarantees by the Issuer, the Guarantors or any other Person.


 


SECTION 7.11 [Reserved].


 


SECTION 7.12 [Reserved].

(b)             
the Issuer and/or the Guarantors have paid all other sums then due and payable under this Indenture; and


 


(c)              
the Issuer has delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that all conditions precedent
under this Indenture relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with; provided that any such
counsel may rely on any Officer’s Certificate as to matters of fact (including as to compliance with the foregoing clauses (a) and
(b)).


 


The Notes of any applicable series will be discharged
and will cease to be of further effect (except as to surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of Notes of such series
and certain rights of the Trustee and the Issuer’s obligations with respect thereto, as expressly provided for in this Indenture)
when:


 






    119


     


    

 


(a)              
either (i) all the Notes of such series theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than Notes pursuant to Section
2.9 which have been replaced or paid and Notes of such series for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated
and held in trust by the Issuer and thereafter repaid to the Issuer or discharged from such trust) have been delivered to the Trustee

the entire Indebtedness on the Notes of such series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal of, premium,
if any, and interest on the Notes of such series to the date of deposit (in the case of Notes that have become due and payable), redemption
or their Stated Maturity, as the case may be; and


 


(b)

that any such counsel may rely on any Officer’s Certificate as to matters of fact (including as to compliance with the foregoing
clause (a)).


 


Subject to Sections 8.1(c) and 8.2, the
Issuer at any time may terminate (i) all of the Issuer’s obligations under the Notes and this Indenture and have
each Guarantor’s obligation discharged with respect to its Guarantee and cure any then-existing Events of Default
(“legal defeasance option”) or (ii) its obligations under Article III (other than Section 3.1) and
the operation of Section 4.1 (other than Sections 4.1(a)(i) and 4.1(a)(ii)) and Sections 6.1(iii) (with respect to any Default
under Article III (other than Section 3.1)), 6.1(iv), 6.1(v) (with respect to Significant Subsidiaries of the Issuer only), 6.1(vi)
(with respect to Significant Subsidiaries of the Issuer only), 6.1(vii) and 6.1(viii) (“covenant defeasance

to such Notes) by exercising its legal defeasance option or its covenant defeasance option, the obligations of each Guarantor under
its Guarantee of such Notes shall be terminated simultaneously with the termination of such obligations.


 


If the Issuer exercises its legal defeasance option,
payment of the Notes so defeased may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default with respect thereto. If the Issuer exercises its
covenant defeasance option, payment of the Notes so defeased may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in Section
6.1(iii) (with respect to any Default by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries with any of its obligations under Article III
other than Section 3.1), 6.1(iv), 6.1(v) (with respect to Significant Subsidiaries of the Issuer only), 6.1(vi) (with respect to Significant
Subsidiaries of the Issuer only), 6.1(vii) or 6.1(viii).


 


Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein
and upon request of the Issuer, the Trustee shall acknowledge in writing the discharge of those obligations that the Issuer terminates.


 






    120


     


    

 


(c)              
Notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, the Issuer’s obligations in Sections 2.8, 2.9, 2.15, 2.16, 2.18, 2.19, 7.6, 7.7
and in this Article VIII shall survive until the Notes have been paid in full. Thereafter, the Issuer’s obligations in Sections
7.6, 8.5 and 8.6 shall survive such satisfaction and discharge.


 


SECTION 8.2 Conditions to Defeasance.


 


(a)                
The Issuer may exercise its legal defeasance option or its covenant defeasance option only if:


 


(i)              
the Issuer irrevocably deposits in trust with the Trustee money or U.S. Government Obligations (sufficient in the opinion of a
nationally recognized certified public accounting firm) for the payment of principal, premium (if any) and interest on the applicable
issue of Notes to redemption or maturity, as the case may be (provided that if such redemption is pursuant to Section 6(b) of the
applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture, (x) the amount of money or U.S. Government Obligations that the Issuer must irrevocably
deposit or cause to be deposited shall be determined using an assumed Applicable Premium for the applicable series of Notes calculated
as of the date of such deposit, as calculated by the Issuer in good faith, and (y) the Issuer must irrevocably deposit or
cause to be deposited additional money in trust on the Redemption Date, as required by Section 5.5, as necessary to pay the Applicable
Premium for the Notes as determined as of the date of the applicable redemption notice);


 


(ii)              the
Issuer delivers to the Trustee a certificate from a nationally recognized firm of independent accountants expressing their opinion
that the payments of principal and interest when due and without reinvestment on the deposited U.S. Government Obligations plus any
deposited money without investment shall provide cash at such times and in such amounts as shall be sufficient to pay principal,
premium, if any, and interest when due on all the Notes to maturity or redemption, as the case may be;


 


(iii)            
91 days pass after the deposit is made and during the 91-day period no Default specified in Section 6.1(v) or Section 6.1(vi) with
respect to the Issuer occurs which is continuing at the end of the period;


 


(iv)            
the deposit does not constitute a default under any other agreement binding on the Issuer;


 


(v)             
the Issuer delivers to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the trust resulting from the deposit does not constitute,
or is qualified as, a regulated investment advisor under the Investment Company Act of 1940;


 


(vi)            
in the case of the legal defeasance option, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that (1) the
Issuer has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (2) since the date of
this Indenture there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon
such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the beneficial owners of the Notes shall not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal
income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and defeasance and shall be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in
the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had not occurred;


 






    121


     


    

 



 


(vii)         
in the case of the covenant defeasance option, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect
that the beneficial owners of the Notes shall not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such
deposit and defeasance and shall be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as
would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had not occurred; and


 


(viii)       
the Issuer delivers to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent
to the defeasance and discharge of the Notes to be so defeased and discharged as contemplated by this Article VIII have been complied
with.


 


Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Opinion of Counsel
required by Sections 8.2(a)(vi) and (vii) need not be delivered if all Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation
(x) have become due and payable, (y) will become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within the same calendar
year or (z) have been called for redemption within the same calendar year.


 


Before or after a deposit, the Issuer may make
arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the redemption of such Notes at a future date in accordance with Article V.


 


SECTION 8.3 Application of Trust
Money. The Trustee shall hold in trust money or U.S. Government Obligations deposited with it pursuant to this Article VIII. It
shall apply the deposited money and the money from U.S. Government Obligations through the Paying Agent and in accordance with this
Indenture to the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes.


 


SECTION 8.4 Repayment to the Issuer. Anything
herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Issuer from time to time upon Company Order any money
or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in this Article VIII which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent
public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof which would
then be required to be deposited to effect legal defeasance or covenant defeasance, as applicable; provided that the Trustee shall
not be required to liquidate any U.S. Government Obligations in order to comply with the provisions of this Section 8.4.


 


Subject to any applicable abandoned property law,
the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Issuer any money held by them for the payment of principal of or interest on the Notes
that remains unclaimed for two years, and, thereafter, Holders entitled to the money must look to the Issuer for payment as general creditors.


 


SECTION 8.5 Indemnity for U.S. Government Obligations.
The Issuer shall pay and shall indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against deposited U.S.
Government Obligations or the principal and interest received on such U.S. Government Obligations.


 






    122 


     


    

 


SECTION 8.6 Reinstatement. If the Trustee
or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this Article VIII by reason of any legal
proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting
such application, the obligations of the Issuer and each Guarantor under this Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees shall be revived
and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article VIII until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted
to apply all such money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this Article VIII; provided, however, that, if
any of the Issuer or the Guarantors has made any payment of interest on or principal of any Notes because of the reinstatement of its
obligations, the Issuer or any Guarantor, as the case may be, shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive
such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.


 


ARTICLE IX

SECTION 9.2 With Consent of Holders.


 


(a)                This Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees may be amended or supplemented by the Issuer, any Guarantor (with respect to its Guarantee
of the Notes) and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding
(including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes) and
any existing or past Default or compliance with any provisions of such documents may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority
in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, in each case, other than Notes beneficially owned by the Issuer or its Affiliates (including,
without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes); provided
that (x) if any such amendment or waiver will only affect one series of Notes (or less than all series of Notes) then outstanding
under this Indenture, then only the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes of such series then outstanding
(including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes) shall
be required, and (y) if any such amendment or waiver by its terms will affect a series of Notes in a manner different and
materially adverse relative to the manner such amendment or waiver affects other series of Notes, then the consent of the Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the Notes of such series then outstanding (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection
with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes) shall be required.


 






    124 


     


    

 


(b)                Notwithstanding the provisions in Section 9.2(a), without the consent of each Holder of an outstanding Note of any series affected
(including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Notes held by Affiliates), no amendment, supplement or waiver pursuant to this Indenture may:


 


(i)         reduce the percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver;


 


(ii)        reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest on any Note;


 


(iii)       reduce
the principal of or change the Stated Maturity of any Note;


 


(iv)       waive a Default in the payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, except a rescission of acceleration
of the Notes by the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes and a waiver of the payment default that
resulted from such acceleration;


 


(v)        reduce the premium payable upon the redemption of any Note or change the time at which any Note may be redeemed pursuant to Section
6 of the applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture;


 


(vi)       make any Note payable in money other than that stated in such Note;


 


(vii)      modify
the legal right of any Holder of any Note to receive payment of principal of and interest on such Note on or after the respective Stated
Maturity for such principal or interest payment dates for such interest expressed in such Note, or to institute suit for the enforcement
of any such payment on or after such respective Stated Maturity or interest payment dates; or


 


(viii)     make any change in the amendment or waiver provisions of this Indenture that require each Holder’s consent, as described
in clauses (i) through (vii) above.


 


(c)                It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 9.2 to approve the particular form of any proposed
amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.


 


(d)                After an amendment under this Section 9.2 becomes effective, the Issuer shall send to the Holders of Notes affected thereby a notice
briefly describing such amendment. The failure of the Issuer to send such notice, or any defect therein, shall not in any way impair or
affect the validity of an amendment under this Section 9.2.


 


SECTION 9.3 Effect of Consents and Waivers.
A consent to an amendment or a waiver by a Holder of a Note shall bind the Holder and every subsequent Holder of that Note or portion
of the Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent or waiver is not made
on the Note. After an amendment or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder unless it makes a change described in clauses
(i) through (viii) of Section 9.2(b), in which case the amendment or waiver or other action shall bind each Holder who has consented
to it and every subsequent Holder that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Notes. An amendment or waiver made pursuant
to Section 9.2 shall become effective upon receipt by the Trustee of the requisite number of written consents.


 


The Issuer may, but shall not be obligated
to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to give their consent or take any other action described
above or required or permitted to be taken pursuant to this Indenture. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the
immediately preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only
those Persons, shall be entitled to give such consent or to take any such action, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders
after such record date.


 






    125 


     


    

 


SECTION 9.4 Notation on or Exchange of Notes.
If an amendment changes the terms of a Note, the Trustee may require the Holder of such Note to deliver it to the Trustee. The Trustee
may place an appropriate notation on the Note regarding the changed terms and return it to the Holder. Alternatively, if the Issuer or
the Trustee so determines, the Issuer in exchange for the Note shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Note that reflects
the changed terms. Failure to make the appropriate notation or to issue a new Note shall not affect the validity of such amendment.


 


SECTION 9.5 Trustee to Sign Amendments.
The Trustee shall sign any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article IX if the amendment, supplement or waiver
does not, in the sole determination of the Trustee, adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. If
it does, the Trustee may but need not sign it. In signing any amendment, supplement or waiver pursuant to this Article IX, the Trustee
shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Sections 7.1 and 7.2) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Officer’s Certificate
and an Opinion of Counsel stating that such amendment, supplement or waiver is authorized or permitted by or complies with this Indenture,
that all conditions precedent to such amendment required by this Indenture have been complied with and that such amendment, supplement
or waiver is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuer, enforceable against the Issuer in accordance with its terms, subject
to customary exceptions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Opinion of Counsel will be required for the Trustee to execute any amendment
or supplement adding a new Guarantor under this Indenture. For the avoidance of doubt, no Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel
shall be required for the execution on the Issue Date of any (x) Notes Supplemental Indenture pursuant to this Section 9.5, (y)
supplemental indenture pursuant to Section 4.1(a)(ii) or (z) Guarantor Supplemental Indenture.


 


ARTICLE X

if any, and interest on the Notes and all other Obligations of the Issuer under this Indenture and the Notes (including, without
limitation, interest accruing after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy, or the commencement of any insolvency, reorganization
or like proceeding, relating to the Issuer, or any Guarantor whether or not a claim for post-filing or post-petition interest is
allowed in such proceeding and the obligations under Section 7.6) (all the foregoing being hereinafter collectively called the
 “Guarantor Obligations”). Each Guarantor agrees (to the extent lawful) that the Guarantor Obligations may be
extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from it, and that it shall remain bound under this
Article X notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Guarantor Obligation.


 






    126 


     


    

 


(b)                Each
Guarantor waives (to the extent lawful) presentation to, demand of, payment from and protest to the Issuer of any of the Guarantor Obligations
and also waives (to the extent lawful) notice of protest for nonpayment. Each Guarantor waives (to the extent lawful) notice of any default
under the Notes or the Guarantor Obligations.


 


(c)                Each Guarantor further agrees that its Guarantee herein constitutes a Guarantee of payment when due (and not a Guarantee of collection)
and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder to any security held for payment of the Guarantor Obligations.


 


(d)                Except as set forth in Section 10.2 and Article VIII, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction,
limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than payment of the Guarantor Obligations in full), including any claim of
waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not (to the extent lawful) be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim,
recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Guarantor Obligations or otherwise.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor herein shall not (to the extent lawful) be discharged
or impaired or otherwise affected by (a) the failure of any Holder to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or
remedy against the Issuer or any other person under this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement or otherwise; (b) any
extension or renewal of any thereof; (c) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions
of this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement; (d) the release of any security held by any Holder for the Guarantor
Obligations or any of them; (e) the failure of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy against any other Guarantor; (f) any
change in the ownership of the Issuer; (g) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the
Guarantor Obligations; or (h) any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might
in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of such Guarantor as a matter
of law or equity.


 


(e)                Each
Guarantor agrees that its Guarantee herein shall remain in full force and effect until payment in full of all the Guarantor Obligations
or such Guarantor is released from its Guarantee in compliance with Section 4.1, Section 10.2 and Article VIII, as applicable. Each Guarantor
further agrees that its Guarantee herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment,
or any part thereof, of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any of the Guarantor Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise
be restored by any Holder upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuer or otherwise.


 






    127 


     


    

 


(f)                 In
furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder has at law or in equity against any Guarantor
by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Issuer to pay any of the Guarantor Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether
at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, each Guarantor hereby promises to and shall, upon receipt of written demand
by the Trustee, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Trustee or the Trustee on behalf of the Holders an amount equal to
the sum of (i) the unpaid amount of such Guarantor Obligations then due and owing and (ii) accrued and unpaid
interest on such Guarantor Obligations then due and owing (but only to the extent not prohibited by law) (including interest accruing
after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy or the commencement of any insolvency, reorganization or like proceeding relating to the
Issuer or any Guarantor whether or not a claim for post-filing or post-petition interest is allowed in such proceeding).


 


(g)                Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between such Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Holders, on the other hand, (x) the
maturity of the Guarantor Obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in this Indenture for the purposes of its Guarantee
herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Guarantor Obligations
guaranteed hereby and (y) in the event of any such declaration of acceleration of such Guarantor Obligations, such Guarantor
Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantor for the purposes of this Guarantee.


 


(h)                Each
Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Trustee
or the Holders in enforcing any rights under this Section 10.1.


 


(i)                 Neither
the Issuer nor the Guarantors shall be required to make a notation on the Notes to reflect any Guarantee or any release, termination
or discharge thereof and any such notation shall not be a condition to the validity of any Guarantee.


 


SECTION 10.2 Limitation on Liability; Termination,
Release and Discharge.


 


(a)                Any
term or provision of this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall be limited to
the maximum amount as shall, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor and after giving effect
to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor
under its Guarantee or pursuant to its contribution obligations under this Indenture, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under
its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under federal or state law and not otherwise being void
or voidable under any similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.


 


(b)                A Guarantee by a Guarantor shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged, and each Guarantor and its obligations
under the Guarantee and this Indenture shall be released and discharged upon:


 






    128 


     


    




 


(1)       the
sale, exchange, disposition or other transfer (including through merger, consolidation or dissolution) of (x) Capital
Stock of such Guarantor, after which the applicable Guarantor is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary, or (y) all or
substantially all the assets of such Guarantor, in any case, if such sale, exchange, disposition or other transfer (including
through merger, consolidation or dissolution) is not prohibited by this Indenture;


 


(2)       the
Issuer designating such Guarantor to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 3.4, Section
3.14 and the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary”;


 


(3)       in
the case of any Restricted Subsidiary that after the Issue Date is required to guarantee the Notes pursuant to Section 3.10, the release
or discharge of the Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness of the Issuer (or, if such release or discharge occurs substantially
concurrently with the release of the Guarantee of such Restricted Subsidiary or will occur as a result of the release of the Guarantee
of such Restricted Subsidiary) or the repayment of the Indebtedness, in each case, that resulted in the obligation to guarantee the Notes,
except if such release or discharge is by or as a result of payment in connection with the enforcement of remedies under such other guarantee
(it being understood that a release or discharge subject to contingent reinstatement is still a release or discharge, and that if any
such other guarantee is so reinstated, such Guarantee shall also be reinstated to the extent that such Restricted Subsidiary would then
be required to provide a guarantee pursuant to Section 3.10);


 


(4)        the
Issuer’s exercise of its legal defeasance option or covenant defeasance option as described under Article VIII or if the Issuer’s
obligations under this Indenture are discharged in accordance with the terms of this Indenture;


 


(5)        the
release or discharge of direct obligations of such Guarantor, or the guarantee by such Guarantor of the obligations, under the Existing
Credit Agreement (or, if such release or discharge occurs substantially concurrently with the release of the Guarantee of such Guarantor
or will occur as a result of the release of the Guarantee of such Guarantor), except a discharge or release by or as a result of payment
in connection with the enforcement of remedies under such guarantee (it being understood that a release or discharge subject to contingent
reinstatement is still a release or discharge, and that if any such other direct obligation or guarantee is so reinstated, such Guarantee
shall also be reinstated to the extent that such Guarantor would then be required to provide a guarantee pursuant to Section 3.10); or


 


(6)        the
Notes having an Investment Grade Rating from both Rating Agencies; provided that each such Guarantee shall be reinstated upon the
Reversion Date with respect to each Restricted Subsidiary that would then be required to provide a guarantee pursuant to Section 3.10.


 


(c)                The Issuer will have the right, upon 10 days’ written notice to the Trustee (or, such shorter period as may be agreed to
by the Trustee), to cause any Guarantor that has not guaranteed any Indebtedness under the Senior Credit Agreement or any Certain Capital
Markets Debt to be unconditionally released and discharged from all obligations under its Guarantee, and such Guarantee shall thereupon
automatically and unconditionally terminate and be discharged and of no further force or effect.


 






    129 


     


    

 


(d)                If
any Guarantor is released from its Guarantee, any of its Subsidiaries that are Guarantors shall be released from their Guarantees, if
any.


 


(e)                If the Issuer requests, at its option, confirmation from the Trustee of a release pursuant to Section 10.2(b), the Issuer shall
deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for
in this Indenture relating to such transaction have been complied with.


 


SECTION 10.3 Right of Contribution. Each
Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that any such Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made
on the obligations under its Guarantee, such Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against the Issuer
or any other Guarantor who has not paid its proportionate share of such payment. The provisions of this Section 10.3 shall in no respect
limit the obligations and liabilities of each Guarantor to the Trustee and the Holders, and each Guarantor shall remain liable to the
Trustee and the Holders for the full amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder.


 


SECTION 10.4 No Subrogation. Notwithstanding
any payment or payments made by each Guarantor hereunder, no Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the
Trustee or any Holder against the Issuer or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the
Trustee or any Holder for the payment of the Guarantor Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution
or reimbursement from the Issuer or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing
to the Trustee and the Holders by the Issuer on account of the Guarantor Obligations are paid in full. If any amount shall be paid to
any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Guarantor Obligations shall not have been paid in full,
such amount shall be held by such Guarantor in trust for the Trustee and the Holders, segregated from other funds of such Guarantor, and
shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to the Trustee in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed
by such Guarantor to the Trustee, if required), to be applied against the Guarantor Obligations.

1.       We
understand that any subsequent transfer of the Notes is subject to certain restrictions and conditions set forth in the Indenture dated

and the undersigned agrees to be bound by, and not to resell, pledge or otherwise transfer the Notes except in compliance with, such restrictions
and conditions and the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).


 


2.       We
understand that the Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act or any other applicable securities law, and that the Notes
may not be offered, sold or otherwise transferred except as permitted in the following sentence. We agree, on our own behalf and on behalf
of any accounts for which we are acting as hereinafter stated, that if we should offer, sell, transfer, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise
dispose of any Notes within one year after the original issuance of the Notes, we will do so only (A) to the Issuer or a Subsidiary,
(B) inside the United States to a “qualified institutional buyer” in compliance with Rule 144A under the
Securities Act, (C) inside the United States to an institutional “accredited investor” (as defined below) that,
prior to such transfer, furnishes to you a signed letter substantially in the form of this letter, (D) outside the United

you and the Issuer such certifications, legal opinions and other information as you and the Issuer may reasonably require to confirm

Notes (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of any Additional
[        ] Notes, or any other Additional Notes of the same series as the [        ]
Notes) with an amount equal to the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings by the Issuer or any direct or indirect parent of
the Issuer, to the extent net cash proceeds thereof are contributed to the common equity capital of the Issuer or used to purchase Capital
Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Issuer from it, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of the principal amount
thereof) equal to [      ]%,36
plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to (but not including) the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the

after giving effect to any issuance of any Additional [        ] Notes, or any other Additional
Notes of the same series as the [        ] Notes) must remain outstanding after each such redemption;
and provided, further, that such redemption shall occur within 180 days after the date on which any such Equity Offering
is consummated.

the foregoing, in connection with any tender for or other offer to purchase [        ] Notes,
if Holders of not less than 90.0% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding [        ]
Notes validly tender and do not withdraw such [        ] Notes in such tender or other offer and
the Issuer, or any third party making such a tender or other offer in lieu of the Issuer, purchases all of the [        ]
Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, all of the Holders of the [        ]
Notes will be deemed to have consented to such tender or other offer and accordingly, the Issuer or such third party will have the right
upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following such purchase date, to redeem all
[        ] Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a price equal to the price
offered to each other Holder in such tender offer plus, to the extent not included in the tender or other offer payment, accrued and unpaid
interest, if any, thereon, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.


 


“Applicable Premium” means,
with respect to any [        ] Note on any applicable Redemption Date, as calculated by the Issuer
or on behalf of the Issuer by such Person as the Issuer shall designate (and the Trustee shall have no duty to calculate or verify the
calculations of the same), the greater of:


 


(1)       1.0%
of the then outstanding principal amount of the [        ] Note; and


 


(2)       the
excess, if any, of


 


(a)       the
present value at such Redemption Date calculated as of the date of the applicable redemption notice of (i) the redemption
price of the Note at [        ], 20[   ]37
(such redemption price being that described in clause (a) of this Section 6) plus (ii) all required remaining scheduled interest

(b)       the
then outstanding principal amount of the [        ] Note.


 


“Treasury Rate” means, with
respect to a Redemption Date, the weekly average yield to maturity at the time of computation of United States Treasury securities with
a constant maturity (as compiled and published in the most recent Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (519) that has become publicly
available at least two Business Days prior to the date of the applicable redemption notice (or, if such Statistical Release is no longer
published, any publicly available source of similar market data)) most nearly equal to the period from such Redemption Date to [        ],
20[   ]38, provided,
however, that if the period from such Redemption Date to [        ], 20[   ]
is not equal to the constant maturity of a United States Treasury security for which a weekly average yield is given, the Treasury Rate
shall be obtained by linear interpolation (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth of a year) from the weekly average yields of United States
Treasury securities for which such yields are given, except that if the period from [        ],
20[   ] to such Redemption Date is less than one year, the weekly average yield on actually traded United States Treasury
securities adjusted to a constant maturity of one year shall be used.
