anyone acting on its behalf (excluding, however, the Purchaser and its Affiliates other than the Company and its Subsidiaries) has offered the Notes or any similar securities for sale to, or solicited any

offer to buy any of the same from, or otherwise approached or negotiated in respect thereof with, any person other than the Purchaser. Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has

redemption (which shall be a Business Day), together with interest on such principal amount accrued to and excluding such date. From and after such date, unless the Company shall fail to pay such principal amount when so due and payable, as
aforesaid, interest on such principal amount shall cease to accrue. Any Note paid or redeemed in full shall be surrendered to the Company and cancelled and shall not be reissued, and no Note shall be issued in lieu of any redeemed principal amount
of any Note. Any Note redeemed in part shall be surrendered to the Company if the Company so requests, and the Company shall issue a new Note in principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Note so
surrendered.

and unpaid interest to and excluding the date of purchase; 
 (ii) a description of such Change of Control;

 Section 8. Affirmative Covenants. The Company covenants that so long as any of the Notes are
outstanding: 
 Section 8.1 Payment of Taxes and Assessments. The Company will, and will cause each of its
Significant Subsidiaries to, pay and discharge all taxes, assessments, governmental charges, or levies imposed on it or any of its properties, assets, income or franchises, to the extent the same have become due and payable and before they have
become delinquent, provided that neither the Company nor any Significant Subsidiary need pay any such tax, assessment, charge, levy or claim if (i) the amount, applicability or validity thereof is contested by the Company or such
Significant Subsidiary on a timely basis in good faith and in appropriate proceedings, and the Company or a Significant Subsidiary has established adequate reserves therefor in accordance with GAAP on the books of the Company or such Significant
Subsidiary or (ii) the nonpayment of all such taxes, assessments, charges, levies and claims in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 Section 8.2 Corporate Existence, Etc. Subject to Section 9.1, the Company will at all times preserve and keep in full force
and effect its corporate existence, rights and franchises unless, in the good faith judgment of the Company, the termination of or failure to preserve and keep in full force and effect such right or franchise could not, individually or in the
aggregate, reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 Section 8.3 Offices. The Company shall maintain
an office or agency where the Notes may be surrendered for registration, exchange or presentation for payment and where notices to the Company may be served. 
 Section 8.4 Refinancing of Indebtedness. 
 (a) From the (x) first
anniversary of the Issuance Date until the second anniversary of the Issuance Date (the “Initial Period”) on at least two occasions mutually agreeable to the Company and the Citi Affiliate (as defined below) and (y) second
anniversary of the Issuance Date to the fourth anniversary of the Issuance Date (the “Second Period”), on at least one additional occasion mutually agreeable to the Company and the Citi Affiliate: the Company shall use its
commercially reasonable efforts to arrange and consummate an offering of investment grade debt securities, trust preferred securities, surplus notes, hybrids or convertible debt of the Company or a subsidiary of the Company generating net cash
proceeds (after deducting fees and expenses incurred in connection with such offering) equal to or greater than the aggregate amount owing at such time under the Notes (the “Refinancing Indebtedness”) to be used to refinance the
Notes; provided, that, in no event shall the Company be required to undertake, arrange or consummate an offering of such securities if the terms (including economics) and conditions thereof are not, in the good faith judgment of the Company
after consultation with the Citi Affiliate, the same as or better for the Company than those of the Notes (other than (A) the optional redemption provisions (including make-whole provisions) which shall be no worse for the Company than
then-prevailing market terms for similar securities of issuers of similar credit quality and (B)(i) the tenor of the Refinancing Indebtedness, which shall be equal to or longer than five years from the date of the original issuance of the
Refinancing Indebtedness and (ii) any change in interest rate that is (x) directly related to any increase in tenor of the Refinancing Indebtedness as compared to the tenor of the Notes and (y) reasonably acceptable to the Company).

  

 9 








 (b) The Company shall offer to use a broker dealer Affiliate of Citigroup Inc. (as
designated by Citigroup Inc., the “Citi Affiliate”) to market the Refinancing Indebtedness offered up to the later of (A) the end of the Initial Period and (B) one year after the Company receives an investment grade rating
from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. and Standard & Poor’s, as a sole bookrunning underwriter or placement agent. 
 (c) Subject to the expiration of the provisions in Section 8.4(b), the Company shall offer to use the Citi Affiliate to market the Refinancing Indebtedness offered during the Second Period as a bookrunning underwriter or placement
agent (but not necessarily sole bookrunning underwriter or placement agent). 
 (d) The fee payable to the Citi Affiliate in
connection with marketing the Refinancing Indebtedness pursuant to Sections 8.4(b) and (c) will be the lesser of 1% of the gross proceeds from the sale of the Refinancing Indebtedness and the rate then prevailing in the market charged by
underwriters with similar roles in the offerings of similar securities of issuers of similar credit quality. 
 Section 9. Negative
Covenants. 
 The Company covenants that so long as any of the Notes are outstanding, without the consent of the holder or
holders of more than 50% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding: 
 Section 9.1 Merger,
Consolidation, Etc. The Company will not consolidate or merge with or into any other Person or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of its assets in a single transaction or series of related transactions to any Person unless:

 (a) the successor formed by such consolidation or the survivor of such merger or the Person that acquires by conveyance,
transfer or lease all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, as the case may be, shall be a corporation organized under the laws of the United States or any State thereof (including the District of Columbia), and, if the Company is not

borrowed money with an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding up to 10% of Net Tangible Book Value. The limitations set forth in this Section 9.2 shall not apply to Liens (i) existing on any capital stock prior to the
acquisition thereof or existing on any capital stock of any Person that becomes a Subsidiary after the date hereof prior to the time such Person becomes a Subsidiary, provided, that such Liens were not created in contemplation of such
acquisition or such Person becoming a Subsidiary, or (ii) incurred in connection with any financing transaction effected pursuant to or for the purposes of complying with any minimum regulatory or statutory capital and reserve requirements
applicable to the Company or its Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, any reserve funding securitization or reserve financing).

than an order issued at the Company’s request or at the request of any of the Company’s Subsidiaries. 
 Section 10. Events of
Default. 
 An “Event of Default” shall exist if any of the following conditions or events shall occur and

or 
  

 11 








 (d) the Company or any Significant Subsidiary is in default in the payment of principal on
any Indebtedness on or after the date of final maturity thereof (whether at the stated maturity or redemption date or as a result of the acceleration thereof), in each case, subject to the expiration of applicable cure periods, if any, and the total
principal amount of such unpaid Indebtedness is at least $25,000,000; provided, such default shall be an Event of Default only if such default is continuing 30 days following the Company’s receipt of written notice of such default from

(i) of Section 10(e)) has occurred, all the Notes then outstanding shall automatically become immediately due and payable. 
 (b) If any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the holder or holders of more than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding may at any time, at its or their option, by written notice to the

 (c) Upon any Notes becoming due and payable under this Section 11.1, whether
automatically or by declaration, such Notes will forthwith mature and the entire unpaid principal amount of such Notes, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall all be immediately due and payable, in each and every case without
presentment, demand, protest or further notice, all of which are hereby waived. 
 Section 11.2 Other Remedies.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the holder of any Note shall have the right to receive payment of principal of and interest on the Notes held by such holder, on or after the respective due dates expressed or provided for in
the Notes, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, and such right shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such holder. 
 Section 11.3 No Waivers or Election of Remedies, Expenses, Etc. No course of dealing and no delay on the part of any holder of
any Note in exercising any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise prejudice such holder’s rights, powers or remedies. No right, power or remedy conferred by this Agreement or by any Note upon any holder thereof
shall be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy referred to herein or therein or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise. The Company will pay to the holder of each Note on demand such further amount as shall be
sufficient to cover all reasonable costs and expenses of such holder incurred following the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default in any enforcement or collection under this Section 11, including reasonable attorneys’ fees,
expenses and disbursements. 
 Section 12. Registration; Exchange; Substitution of Notes. 
 Section 12.1 Registration of Notes. The Company shall keep at its principal executive office a register for the registration and
registration of transfers of Notes. The name and address of each holder of one or more Notes, each transfer thereof and the name and address of each transferee of one or more Notes shall be registered in such register. Prior to due presentment for
registration of transfer, the Person in whose name any Note shall be registered shall be deemed and treated as the owner and holder thereof for all purposes hereof, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice or knowledge to the contrary.
The Company shall give to any holder of a Note, promptly upon request therefor, a complete and correct copy of the names and addresses of all registered holders of the Notes.

holder of such Note or such holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing and accompanied by the relevant name, address, tax identification number and other information reasonably satisfactory to the Company that no registration under the
Securities Act is required in connection with such transfer (which may include a legal opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company) for notices of each transferee of such Note or part thereof), within ten Business Days thereafter, the
Company shall execute and deliver, at the Company’s expense (except as provided below), one or more new Notes (as requested by the holder thereof) in exchange therefor, in an aggregate

  

 13 








 
principal amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of the surrendered Note. Each such new Note shall be payable to such Person as such holder may request and shall be substantially in the form
of Exhibit 1. Each such new Note shall be dated and bear interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on the surrendered Note or dated the date of the surrendered Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon. The Company may
require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp tax or governmental charge imposed in respect of any such transfer of Notes. Notes shall not be transferred in denominations of less than $1,000,000, provided that if necessary to enable the
registration of transfer by a holder of its entire holding of Notes, one Note may be in a denomination of less than $1,000,000. 
 Section 12.3 Replacement of Notes. Upon receipt by the Company at the address and to the attention of the designated officer (all as specified in Section 16(iii)) of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the ownership
of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Note (which evidence shall be, in the case of an Institutional Investor, notice from such Institutional Investor of such ownership and such loss, theft, destruction or mutilation), and

 (a) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it, or 
 (b) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation thereof, 
 within ten Business Days thereafter, the Company at its own expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Note, dated and bearing interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid
on such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon. 
 Section 13. Payments on Notes. 
 Section 13.1 Place of
Payment. Subject to Section 13.2, payments of principal and interest becoming due and payable on the Notes shall be made in Duluth, Georgia at the principal office of the Company in such jurisdiction. The Company may at any time, by notice
to each holder of a Note, change the place of payment of the Notes so long as such place of payment shall be either the principal office of the Company in such jurisdiction or the principal office of a bank or trust company in the United States.

 Section 13.2 Home Office Payment. So long as the Purchaser or its nominee shall be the holder of any Note, and
notwithstanding anything contained in Section 13.1 or in such Note to the contrary, the Company will pay all sums becoming due on such Note for principal and interest by the method and at the address specified below the Purchaser’s name at
the beginning of this Agreement, or by such other reasonable method or at such other address as such Purchaser shall have from time to time specified to the Company in writing for such purpose, without the presentation or surrender of such Note or
the making of any notation thereon, except that upon written request of the Company made prior to, concurrently with or reasonably promptly after payment or redemption in full of any Note, such Purchaser shall surrender such

  

 14 








 
Note for cancellation, reasonably promptly after any such request, to the Company at its principal executive office or at the place of payment most recently designated by the Company pursuant to
Section 13.1. Prior to any sale or other disposition of any Note held by the Purchaser or its nominee, such Purchaser will, at its election, either endorse thereon the amount of principal paid thereon and the last date to which interest has
been paid thereon or surrender such Note to the Company in exchange for a new Note or Notes pursuant to Section 12.2. The Company will afford the benefits of this Section 13.2 to any Institutional Investor that is the direct or indirect
transferee of any Note purchased by the Purchaser under this Agreement and that has made the same agreement relating to such Note as the Purchaser has made in this Section 13.2. 
 Section 14. Survival of Representations and Warranties; Entire Agreement. 
 All representations and warranties contained herein are made as of the date of this Agreement (unless specifically addressing matters only as of a particular date, then as of that date) and shall survive the execution and delivery of this
Agreement and the Notes, the purchase or transfer by the Purchaser of any Note or portion thereof or interest therein and the payment of any Note, and may be relied upon by any subsequent holder of a Note, regardless of any investigation made at any
time by or on behalf of the Purchaser or any other holder of a Note. All statements contained in any certificate or other instrument delivered by or on behalf of the Company pursuant to this Agreement (but excluding statements contained in any
certificate delivered pursuant to Section 6 to the extent such statements relate to the condition (including financial position) or transactions of the Company or any Subsidiary on or prior to April 15, 2010) shall be deemed
representations and warranties of the Company under this Agreement. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement and the Notes embody the entire agreement and understanding between the Purchaser and the Company and supersede all prior
agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof. 
 Section 15. Amendment and Waiver. 
 Section 15.1 Requirements. This Agreement and the Notes may be amended, and the observance of any term hereof or of the Notes may
be waived (either retroactively or prospectively), with (and only with) the written consent of the Company and the holder or holders of more than 50% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding, except that (a) for so
long as the Purchaser is a holder of a Note, no amendment or waiver of any of the provisions of Sections 15.1(a) and 17 hereof, or any defined term as it is used therein, will be effective as to the Purchaser unless consented to by the Purchaser in
writing, and (b) no amendment or waiver may, without the written consent of the holder of each Note at the time outstanding affected thereby, (i) subject to the provisions of Section 11 relating to acceleration, change the amount or
time of any payment of principal of, or reduce the rate or change the time of payment or method of computation of interest on, the Notes, (ii) change the percentage of the principal amount of the Notes the holders of which are required to
consent to any such amendment or waiver, or (iii) amend any of Sections 10(a), 10(b) or 11. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended by the Company, without the consent of any holder of any Note, to add any Subsidiary of the
Company as a Subsidiary Guarantor under Section 18.11. 
  

 15 








 Section 15.2 Delivery. The Company will deliver executed or true and correct
copies of each amendment, waiver or consent effected pursuant to the provisions of this Section 15 to each holder of outstanding Notes reasonably promptly following the date on which it is executed and delivered by, or receives the consent or
approval of, the requisite holders of Notes. 
 Section 15.3 Binding Effect, etc. Any amendment or waiver consented
to as provided in this Section 15 applies equally to all holders of Notes and is binding upon them and upon each future holder of any Note and upon the Company without regard to whether such Note has been marked to indicate such amendment or
waiver. No such amendment or waiver will extend to or affect any obligation, covenant, agreement, Default or Event of Default not expressly amended or waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing between the Company and the
holder of any Note nor any delay in exercising any rights hereunder or under any Note shall operate as a waiver of any rights of any holder of such Note. 
 Section 15.4 Notes Held by Company, etc. Solely for the purpose of determining whether the holders of the requisite percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding
approved or consented to any amendment, waiver or consent to be given under this Agreement or the Notes, or have directed the taking of any action provided herein or in the Notes to be taken upon the direction of the holders of a specified
percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, Notes directly or indirectly owned by the Company or any of its Affiliates under the Control of the Company shall be deemed not to be outstanding. 
 Section 16. Notices. 
 Any notice, request, instruction or other document to be given hereunder by any party to the other will be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given (a) on the date of delivery if delivered personally or by facsimile, with
confirmation of receipt, (b) on the first business day following the date of dispatch if delivered by a recognized next-day courier service or (c) on the third business day following the date of mailing if delivered by registered or
certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid: 
 (i) if to the Purchaser or its nominee, to the
Purchaser or nominee at the address specified below the Purchaser’s name at the beginning of this Agreement, or at such other address as the Purchaser or nominee shall have specified to the Company in writing, 
 (ii) if to any other holder of any Note, to such holder at such address as such other holder shall have specified to the
Company in writing, or 
 (iii) if to the Company, to the Company at 3120 Breckinridge Blvd., Duluth, Georgia
30099, to the attention of the General Counsel, or at such other address as the Company shall have specified to the holder of each Note in writing.

 Section 17. Substitution of Purchaser; Assignment and Transfer. 
 (a) Substitution of Purchaser. The Purchaser shall have the right to substitute any one of its Affiliates as the purchaser of the
Notes that it has agreed to acquire hereunder, by written notice to the Company, which notice shall be signed by both the Purchaser and such Affiliate, shall contain such Affiliate’s agreement to be bound by this Agreement and shall contain a
confirmation by such Affiliate of the accuracy with respect to it of the representations set forth in Section 5. Upon receipt of such notice, any reference to the Purchaser in this Agreement (other than in this Section 17), shall be
deemed to refer to such Affiliate in lieu of such original Purchaser. In the event that such Affiliate is so substituted as a Purchaser hereunder and such Affiliate thereafter transfers to such original Purchaser all of the Notes then held by such
Affiliate, upon receipt by the Company of notice of such transfer, any reference to such Affiliate as a “Purchaser” in this Agreement (other than in this Section 17), shall no longer be deemed to refer to such Affiliate, but shall
refer to such original Purchaser, and such original Purchaser shall again have all the rights of an original holder of the Notes under this Agreement. 
 (b) Assignment and Transfer. The holders of the Notes may, upon written notice to the Company, assign, participate, grant security interests in, or otherwise transfer any portion of the Notes, and
may assign any of its rights or delegate any of its duties hereunder. Upon such notice, the Company shall transfer or exchange any Note pursuant to the procedures and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 12.2. 
 Section 18. Miscellaneous. 
 Section 18.1 Successors and Assigns. All covenants and other agreements contained in this Agreement by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns (including
any subsequent holder of a Note) whether so expressed or not. 
 Section 18.2 Payments Due on Non-Business Days.
Anything in this Agreement or the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding (but without limiting the requirement in Section 7.4 that the notice of any optional redemption specify a Business Day as the date fixed for such redemption), any payment
of principal of or interest on any Note that is due on a date other than a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day without including the additional days elapsed in the computation of the interest payable on such next
succeeding Business Day. 
 Section 18.3 Accounting Terms. All accounting terms used herein which are not expressly
defined in this Agreement have the meanings respectively given to them in accordance with GAAP. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, (i) all computations made pursuant to this Agreement shall be made in accordance with GAAP, and
(ii) all financial statements shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP. 
 Section 18.4 Severability. Any
provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such

  

 17 








 
prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall (to the full extent permitted by law)
not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 Section 18.5 Construction, etc.
Each covenant contained herein shall be construed (absent express provision to the contrary) as being independent of each other covenant contained herein, so that compliance with any one covenant shall not (absent such an express contrary provision)
be deemed to excuse compliance with any other covenant. 
 For the avoidance of doubt, all Schedules and Exhibits attached to
this Agreement shall be deemed to be a part hereof. 
 Section 18.6 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in
any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original but all of which together shall constitute one instrument. Each counterpart may consist of a number of copies hereof, each signed by less than all, but together signed by all, of the
parties hereto. 
 Section 18.7 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with,
and the rights of the parties shall be governed by, the law of the State of New York excluding choice-of-law principles of the law of such State that would permit the application of the laws of a jurisdiction other than such State. 
 Section 18.8 Jurisdiction and Process; Waiver of Jury Trial. (a) The Company irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive
jurisdiction of any New York State or federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Notes. To the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, the Company irrevocably waives and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, any claim that it is not subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the
laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. 
 (b) The Company consents to process being served by or on behalf of any holder of Notes in any suit, action or proceeding of the nature
referred to in Section 18.8(a) by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to it at its address specified in Section 16 or at such other
address of which such holder shall then have been notified pursuant to said Section. The Company agrees that such service upon receipt (i) shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon it in any such suit, action or
proceeding and (ii) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be taken and held to be valid personal service upon and personal delivery to it. 
 (c) Nothing in this Section 18.8 shall affect the right of any holder of a Note to serve process in any manner permitted by law, or limit any right that the holders of any of the Notes may have to
bring proceedings against the Company in the courts of any appropriate jurisdiction or to enforce in any lawful manner a judgment obtained in one jurisdiction in any other jurisdiction. 
  

 18 








 (d) The parties hereto hereby waive trial by jury in any action brought on or with respect
to this Agreement, the Notes or any other document executed in connection herewith or therewith. 
 Section 18.9
Immunity. A director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor (other than the Company or another Subsidiary Guarantor) shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company or any
Subsidiary Guarantor under the Notes or the Subsidiary Guaranty or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. By accepting a Note, each holder of the Notes waives and releases all such liability. The
waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issue of the Notes. 
 Section 18.10 Interpretation. All
headings used herein are used for convenience only and shall not be used to construe or interpret this Agreement or the Notes. Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used herein, they shall be
deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” When a reference herein is made to a “party” or “parties,” such reference shall be to a party or parties to this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. Unless the
context requires otherwise, the terms “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby,” “hereto” and derivative or similar words in this Agreement refer to this entire Agreement. Unless the context requires otherwise, words in
this Agreement using the singular or plural number also include the plural or singular number, respectively, and the use of any gender herein shall be deemed to include the other genders. When a reference is made to a Section, such reference shall
be to a Section of this Agreement, unless otherwise indicated. References to “dollars” or “$” are to U.S. dollars. References to days, months or years shall mean calendar days, months or years unless specified otherwise.

 Section 18.11 Guaranty. Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably
guarantees, each as a primary obligor and not merely as surety, the full and punctual payment and performance of all obligations of the Company under the Notes and this Agreement, whether such obligations are absolute or contingent, now existing or
subsequently arising, now due or hereafter falling due, monetary or otherwise, as if it were a direct obligor of the Notes. Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and performance when due and not of collection.
The Purchaser and each holder of Notes acknowledges and agrees that the obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors will be limited to the maximum amount that will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed
liabilities of the Subsidiary Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from, or payments made by or on behalf of any other Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of the
obligations of such other Subsidiary Guarantor under this Section 18.11, result in the obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantor under its guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. In the event of any sale or other
disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of any Subsidiary Guarantor, by way of merger, consolidation or otherwise, or a sale or other disposition of the

  

 19 








 
capital stock of any Subsidiary Guarantor following which such Person is no longer a Subsidiary of the Company, in each case to a Person that is not a Subsidiary of the Company, then such
Subsidiary Guarantor will be automatically released and relieved of any obligations under this Section 18.11, without any further act by any Person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser and each holder of Notes hereby agrees to execute
any agreement or instrument (at the expense of the Company) that the Company reasonably requests in order to evidence such release. 
 Section 19. Confidential Information. For the purposes of this Section 19, “Confidential Information” means information delivered to any Non-Affiliate Holder by or on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary of the
Company in connection with the transactions contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement that is proprietary in nature and that was clearly marked or labeled or otherwise adequately identified when received by the Non-Affiliate Holder as
being confidential information of the Company or such Subsidiary, provided that such term does not include information that (a) was publicly known or otherwise known to the Non-Affiliate Holder prior to the time of the delivery of such
information to such Non-Affiliate Holder by or on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary thereof (other than through disclosure by (x) the Company or any Subsidiary or (y) a Person who was under a duty of confidentiality to the Company),
(b) subsequently becomes publicly known through no act or omission by the Non-Affiliate Holder or any person acting on the holder’s behalf, (c) otherwise becomes known to the Non-Affiliate Holder other than through disclosure by
(x) the Company or any Subsidiary or (y) a Person who was under a duty of confidentiality to the Company or (d) constitutes financial statements delivered to the Non-Affiliate Holder under Section 6.1 that are otherwise publicly
available. Each Non-Affiliate Holder will maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information in accordance with procedures adopted by such holder in good faith to protect confidential information of third parties delivered to such holder,
provided that each Non-Affiliate Holder may deliver or disclose Confidential Information to (i) its directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, trustees and Affiliates (to the extent such disclosure reasonably relates to the
administration of the investment represented by its Notes and such Persons are informed of and agree to be bound by the provisions of this Section 19), (ii) its financial advisors and other professional advisors who agree to hold
confidential the Confidential Information substantially in accordance with the terms of this Section 19, (iii) any other Non-Affiliate Holder that is an Institutional Investor, (iv) any Institutional Investor to which it sells or
offers to sell such Note or any part thereof or any participation therein (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by the provisions of this Section 19), (v) pursuant to the
order of any court or administrative agency or in any pending legal or administrative proceeding, or otherwise as required by applicable law, regulation, the rules of an applicable securities exchange or compulsory legal process or upon the request
or demand of any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over such Non-Affiliate Holder (in which case each such holder agrees, and agrees to direct its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, trustees,
financial advisors and other professional advisors, to the extent permitted by law, to inform the Company as promptly as practicable thereof so that it may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy, in each case at the Company’s own
expense, and/or waive compliance with the terms of this Section 19, it being understood that if such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, or the Company does not waive compliance

  

 20 








 
with the provisions hereof, each such holder agrees to furnish only that portion of such information which it is legally required or requested to furnish and to use reasonable efforts to obtain
assurances that confidential treatment will be accorded to such information) or (z) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to the extent the Non-Affiliate Holder may reasonably determine such delivery and disclosure to be
necessary or appropriate in the enforcement or for the protection of the rights and remedies under the holder’s Notes and this Agreement. Each Non-Affiliate Holder, by its acceptance of a Note, will be deemed to have agreed to be bound by and
to be entitled to the benefits of this Section 19 as though it were a party to this Agreement. On reasonable request by the Company in connection with the delivery to any Non-Affiliate Holder of information required to be delivered to such
holder under this Agreement or requested by such holder (other than a holder that is a party to this Agreement or its nominee), such holder will enter into an agreement with the Company embodying the provisions of this Section 19.
