Wisconsin limited liability company (the “Company”), and each of the purchasers of the $40,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 6.14% Senior Notes, Series B, due May 16, 2016 (the “Series B Notes”) and each of
the purchasers of the $50,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 6.41% Senior Notes, Series C, due September 2, 2015 (the “Series C Notes,” and together with the Series B Notes, the “Notes”) of
the Company issued pursuant thereto. Capitalized terms used in this Fourth Amendment (this “Fourth Amendment”) without definition shall have the meanings given such terms in the Note Purchase Agreements. 

Pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of November 26, 2010 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among
the Company, Allegheny Technologies Incorporated, a Delaware Corporation (“ATI” or the “Guarantor”), LPAD Co., a Wisconsin corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of ATI (“LPAD”), PADL LLC, a
Wisconsin limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of ATI (“PADL”), LPAD merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of ATI.
Immediately after the completion of the Merger, the Company merged with and into PADL, with PADL surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of ATI and being renamed “ATI Ladish LLC” The transactions contemplated by the Merger were completed on
May 9, 2011. 
 In connection with the Merger, the Company has requested certain amendments to the Note Purchase Agreements

 In consideration of the holders of the Notes approving such amendments, ATI has agreed to guaranty the
obligations of the Company under the Note Purchase Agreements and the Notes and be bound by certain covenants and agreements, all as provided in the Parent Guaranty Agreement (as defined below). 

For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company requests the amendment of
certain provisions of the Note Purchase Agreements as hereinafter provided.

2(C)-1 









	SECTION	1. GUARANTY. 

 The
Guarantor hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, jointly and severally, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, to each Holder and its successors and assigns, the full and punctual payment and performance when due,
whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of the principal of and Make-Whole Amount and interest on (including, without limitation, interest, whether or not an allowable claim, accruing after the date of filing of any petition in
bankruptcy, or the commencement of any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding relating to the Company) the Notes and all other amounts under the Note Purchase Agreements and all other obligations, agreements and covenants of the Company now or
hereafter existing under the Note Purchase Agreements whether for principal, Make-Whole Amount, interest (including interest accruing or becoming owing both prior to and subsequent to the commencement of any proceeding against or with respect to the
Company under any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code), indemnification payments, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) or otherwise, and all reasonable costs and expenses, if any, incurred by any Holder in connection with
enforcing any rights under this Guaranty (all such obligations being the “Guaranteed Obligations”), and agrees to pay any and all reasonable expenses incurred by each Holder in enforcing this Guaranty. This Guaranty is an absolute,
unconditional, present and continuing guaranty of payment and not of collectibility and is in no way conditioned upon any attempt to collect from the Company or any other action, occurrence or circumstance whatsoever. 

Notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such action against the Company, if for any reason whatsoever the
Company shall fail or be unable to duly, punctually and fully perform and (in the case of the payment of Guaranteed Obligations) pay such amounts as and when the same shall become due and (in the case of the payment of Guaranteed Obligations)
payable or to perform or comply with any other Guaranteed Obligation, whether or not such failure or inability shall constitute an “Event of Default” under the Note Purchase Agreements or the Notes, the Guarantor will forthwith (in the
case of the payment of Guaranteed Obligations) pay or cause to be paid such amounts to the Holders, in lawful money of the United States of America, at the place specified in the Note Purchase Agreements, or perform or comply with such Guaranteed
Obligations or cause such Guaranteed Obligations to be performed or complied with, (in the case of the payment of Guaranteed Obligations) together with interest (in the amounts and to the extent required under such Notes) on any amount due and
owing. 
  

	SECTION	2 GUARANTOR’S OBLIGATIONS UNCONDITIONAL. 


(a) This Guaranty shall constitute a guarantee of payment, performance and compliance and not of collection, and the Guarantor
specifically agrees that it shall not be necessary, and that the Guarantor shall not be entitled to require, before or as a condition of enforcing the liability of the Guarantor under this Guaranty or requiring payment or performance of the
Guaranteed Obligations by the Guarantor hereunder, or at any time thereafter, that any Holder: (a) file suit or proceed to obtain or assert a claim for personal judgment against the Company or any other Person that may be liable for or with
respect to any Guaranteed 

  
 2(c)-2









 
Obligation; (b) make any other effort to obtain payment or performance of any Guaranteed Obligation from the Company or any other Person that may be liable for or with respect to such
Guaranteed Obligation, except for the making of the demands, when appropriate, described in Section 1; (c) foreclose against, or seek to realize upon security now or hereafter existing for such Guaranteed Obligations; (d) except to
the extent set forth in Section 1, exercise or assert any other right or remedy to which such Holder is or may be entitled in connection with any Guaranteed Obligation or any security or other guaranty therefor; or (e) assert or file any
claim against the assets of the Company or any other Person liable for any Guaranteed Obligation. The Guarantor agrees that this Guaranty shall be continuing, and that the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid and performed in accordance with their
terms and the terms of this Guaranty, and are the primary, absolute and unconditional obligations of the Guarantor, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, legality, regularity or enforceability or lack thereof of any part of the
Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement or instrument relating to the Guaranteed Obligations or this Guaranty, or the existence of any indemnities with respect to the existence of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed
Obligations, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might
otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, it being the intent of this Section 2 that the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall be irrevocable, primary, absolute and unconditional under any
and all circumstances. 
 (b) The Guarantor hereby expressly waives notice of acceptance of and reliance upon this Guaranty,
diligence, presentment, demand of payment or performance, protest and all other notices (except as otherwise provided for in Section 1) whatsoever, any requirement that the Holders exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against the
Company or against any other Person under any other guarantee of, or security for, or any other agreement, regarding any of the Guaranteed Obligations. The Guarantor further agrees that, subject solely to the requirement of making demands under
Section 1, the occurrence of any event or other circumstance that might otherwise vary the risk of the Company or the Guarantor or constitute a defense (legal or equitable) available to, or a discharge of, or a counterclaim or right of set-off
by, the Company or the Guarantor (other than the full and indefeasible due payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations), shall not affect the liability of the Guarantor hereunder. 

(c) The obligations of the Guarantor under this Guaranty are not subject to any counterclaim, set-off, deduction, diminution, abatement,
recoupment, suspension, deferment or defense based upon any claim the Guarantor or any other Person may have against the Company, any Holder or any other Person, and shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be released,
discharged or in any way affected by, any circumstances or condition whatsoever (whether or not the Guarantor or the Company shall have any knowledge or notice thereof), including: 

(i) any renewal, extension, modification, increase, decrease, alteration or rearrangement of all or any part of the
Guaranteed Obligations or any instrument executed in connection therewith, or any contract or understanding with the Company, the Holders, or any of them, or any other Person, pertaining to the Guaranteed Obligations; 

  
 2(c)-3









 (ii) any adjustment, indulgence, forbearance or compromise that might be
granted or given by any Holder to the Company or any other Person liable on the Guaranteed Obligations, or the failure of any Holder to assert any claim or demand or to exercise any right or remedy against the Company or any other Person under the
provisions of the Note Purchase Agreements, the Notes or otherwise; or any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any release from any of the terms or provisions of, the Note Purchase Agreements, the Notes, any guarantee or any other

whatsoever, including the fact that the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, exceed the amount permitted by law, the act of creating the Guaranteed Obligations or any part is ultra vires, the officers or representatives executing the
documents or otherwise creating the Guaranteed Obligations acted in excess of their authority, the Guaranteed Obligations violate applicable usury laws, the Company or any other Person has valid defenses, claims or offsets (whether at law, in equity
or by agreement) which render the Guaranteed Obligations wholly or partially uncollectible from the Company or any other Person, the creation, performance or repayment of the Guaranteed Obligations (or the execution, delivery and performance of any
document or instrument representing part of the Guaranteed Obligations or executed in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations or given to secure the repayment of the Guaranteed Obligations) is illegal, uncollectible, legally impossible or
unenforceable, or the documents or instruments pertaining to the Guaranteed Obligations have been forged or otherwise are irregular or not genuine or authentic; 

(v) any full or partial release of the liability of the Company on the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof, of any
co-guarantors, or of any other Person now or hereafter liable, whether directly or indirectly, jointly, severally, or jointly and severally, to pay, perform, guarantee or assure the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof, it being
recognized, acknowledged and agreed by the Guarantor that the Guarantor may be required to pay the Guaranteed Obligations in full without assistance or support of any other Person, and the Guarantor has not been induced to enter into this Guaranty
on the basis of a contemplation, belief, understanding or agreement that any parties other than the Company will be liable to perform the 

  
 2(c)-4









 
Guaranteed Obligations, or that the Holders will look to other parties to perform the Guaranteed Obligations; 

(vi) the taking or accepting of any other security, collateral or guaranty, or other assurance of payment, for all or any
part of the Guaranteed Obligations; 
 (vii) any release, surrender, exchange, subordination, deterioration,

 (viii) the failure of any Holder or any other Person to exercise diligence or reasonable care in
the preservation, protection, enforcement, sale or other handling or treatment of all or any part of such collateral, property or security; 
 (ix) the fact that any collateral, security, security interest or lien contemplated or intended to be given, created or granted as security for the repayment of the Guaranteed Obligations shall not be
properly perfected or created, or shall prove to be unenforceable or subordinate to any other security interest or lien, it being recognized and agreed by the Guarantor that the Guarantor is not entering into this Guaranty in reliance on, or in
contemplation of the benefits of, the validity, enforceability, collectibility or value of any of the collateral; 
 (x) any payment by the Company to any Holder being held to constitute a preference under any fraudulent conveyance law, or for any reason any Holder being required to refund such payment or pay such
amount to the Company or someone else; 
 (xi) any other action taken or omitted to be taken with respect to the
Guaranteed Obligations, or the security and collateral therefor, whether or not such action or omission prejudices the Guarantor or increases the likelihood that the Guarantor will be required to pay the Guaranteed Obligations pursuant to the terms
hereof, it being the unambiguous and unequivocal intention of the Guarantor that it shall be obligated to pay the Guaranteed Obligations when due, notwithstanding any occurrence, circumstance, event, action or omission whatsoever, whether or not
contemplated, and whether or not otherwise or particularly described herein, except for the full and final payment and satisfaction of the Guaranteed Obligations in cash; 

(xii) the fact that all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations cease to exist by operation of law, including by way of a
discharge, limitation or tolling thereof under applicable bankruptcy laws; 
 (xiii) any other circumstance
(including any statute of limitations) that might in any manner or to any extent otherwise constitute a defense available to, vary the risk of, or operate as a discharge of, the Company or any Person as a matter of law or equity; 

  
 2(c)-5









 (xiv) any merger or consolidation of the Company or any Guarantor into or
with any other Person or any sale, lease or transfer of any of the assets of the Company to any other Person; 

(xv) any change in the ownership of any shares of capital stock of the Company, or any change in the relationship between
the Company and the Guarantor or any termination of any such relationship; 
 (xvi) any default, failure or
delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance by the Company, the Guarantor or any other Person of any obligations of any kind or character whatsoever under the Note Purchase Agreements or any other agreement;

any sale, lease, transfer or other disposition of any of the assets of the Company, the Guarantor or any other Person to any other Person, or any change in the ownership of any shares or partnership interests of the Company, the Guarantor or any
other Person; 
 (xviii) in respect of the Company, the Guarantor or any other Person, any change of
circumstances, whether or not foreseen or foreseeable, whether or not imputable to the Company, the Guarantor or any other Person, or other impossibility of performance through fire, explosion, accident, labor disturbance, floods, droughts,
embargoes, wars (whether or not declared), civil commotion, acts of God or the public enemy, delays or failure of suppliers or carriers, inability to obtain materials, action of any Federal or state regulatory body or agency, change of law or any
other causes affecting performance, or any other force majeure, whether or not beyond the control of the Company, the Guarantor or any other Person and whether or not of the kind hereinbefore specified; or 

(xix) any other occurrence, circumstance, or event whatsoever, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing, whether
foreseen or unforeseen, and any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable defense or discharge of the liabilities of a guarantor or surety or which might otherwise limit recourse against the Guarantor; 

provided that the specific enumeration of the above-mentioned acts, failures or omissions shall not be deemed to exclude any other acts, failures
or omissions, though not specifically mentioned above, it being the purpose and intent of this Guaranty and the parties hereto that the obligations of the Guarantor shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be discharged, impaired or varied
except by the payment and performance of all obligations of the Company under the Note Purchase Agreements and the Notes in accordance with their respective terms as each may be amended or modified from time to time. Without limiting the foregoing,
it is understood that repeated and successive demands may be made and recoveries may be had hereunder as and when, from time to time, the Company or the Guarantor shall default under or in respect of the terms of the Note Purchase Agreements and
that notwithstanding recovery hereunder for or in respect of any given default or defaults by the Company or the Guarantor under the Note Purchase Agreements, this Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect and shall apply to each


  
 2(c)-6









 
and every subsequent default. All waivers herein contained shall be without prejudice to the Holders at their respective options to proceed against the Company, the Guarantor or other Person,
whether by separate action or by joinder. 
 (d) The Guarantor hereby consents and agrees that any Holder or Holders from time
to time, with or without any further notice to or assent from the Guarantor may, without in any manner affecting the liability of the Guarantor under this Guaranty, and upon such terms and conditions as any such Holder or Holders may deem advisable:

 (i) extend in whole or in part (by renewal or otherwise), modify, change, compromise, release or extend the
duration of the time for the performance or payment of any debt, liability or obligation of the Company or the Guarantor or of any other Person secondarily or otherwise liable for any debt, liability or obligations of the Company on the Note
Purchase Agreements or the Notes, or waive any Default or Event of Default with respect thereto, or waive, modify, amend or change any provision of any other agreement or waive this Guaranty; or 

(ii) sell, release, surrender, modify, impair, exchange or substitute any and all property, of any nature and from
whomsoever received, held by, or for the benefit of, any such Holder as direct or indirect security for the payment or performance of any debt, liability or obligation of the Company, the Guarantor or of any other Person secondarily or otherwise
liable for any debt, liability or obligation of the Company on the Note Purchase Agreements or the Notes; or 

(iii) settle, adjust or compromise any claim of the Company or the Guarantor against any other Person secondarily or
otherwise liable for any debt, liability or obligation of the Company on the Note Purchase Agreements or the Notes; or 
 (iv) purchase Additional Notes from time to time from the Company pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Note Purchase Agreements. 
 The Guarantor hereby ratifies and confirms any such extension, renewal, change, sale, release, waiver, surrender, exchange, modification, amendment, impairment, substitution, settlement, adjustment,
compromise or purchase Additional Notes and that the same shall be binding upon it, and hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any and all defenses, counterclaims or offsets which it might or could have by reason thereof, it being
understood that the Guarantor shall at all times be bound by this Guaranty and remain liable hereunder. 
 (e) All rights of any
Holder may be transferred or assigned at any time in accordance with the Note Purchase Agreements and shall be considered to be transferred or assigned at any time or from time to time upon the transfer of such Note in accordance with the Note
Purchase Agreements without the consent of or notice to the Guarantor under this Guaranty. 
 (f) No Holder shall be under any
obligation: (i) to marshal any assets in favor of the Guarantor or in payment of any or all of the liabilities of the Company or the Guarantor under or in respect of the Notes or the obligations of the Company and the Guarantor under the Note


  
 2(c)-7









 
Purchase Agreements or (ii) to pursue any other remedy that the Guarantor may or may not be able to pursue themselves and that may lighten the Guarantor’ burden, any right to which the
Guarantor hereby expressly waives. 
  

	SECTION	3. FULL RECOURSE OBLIGATIONS; PARI PASSU RANKING. 


The obligations of the Guarantor set forth herein constitute the full recourse obligations of the Guarantor enforceable against it to the
full extent of all its assets and properties. 
 The obligations under this Guaranty of the Guarantor are and at all times shall
remain direct and unsecured obligations of the Guarantor ranking pari passu as against the assets of the Guarantor without any preference among themselves and pari passu with all other present and future unsecured Indebtedness (actual
or contingent) of the Guarantor which is not expressed to be subordinate or junior in rank to any other unsecured Indebtedness of the Guarantor. 
  

	SECTION	4. WAIVER. 

 The
Guarantor unconditionally waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law: 
 (a) notice of any of the matters
referred to in Section 2; 
 (b) notice to the Guarantor of the incurrence of any of the Guaranteed
Obligations, notice to the Guarantor of any breach or default by the Company or the Guarantor with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other notice that may be required, by statute, rule of law or otherwise, to preserve any rights of
any Holder against the Guarantor; 
 (c) presentment to the Company or the Guarantor or of payment from the
Company or the Guarantor with respect to any Note or other Guaranteed Obligation or protest for nonpayment or dishonor; 
 (d) any right to the enforcement, assertion, exercise or exhaustion by any Holder of any right, power, privilege or remedy conferred in any Note, the Note Purchase Agreement or otherwise; 

(e) any requirement of diligence on the part of any Holder; 

(f) any requirement to mitigate the damages resulting from any default under the Notes or the Note Purchase Agreements;

 (g) any notice of any sale, transfer or other disposition of any right, title to or interest in any Note or
other Guaranteed Obligation by any Holder, assignee or participant thereof, or in the Note Purchase Agreements; 

(h) any release of the Guarantor from its obligations hereunder resulting from any loss by it of its rights of
subrogation hereunder; and 

  
 2(c)-8









 (i) any other circumstance whatsoever which might otherwise constitute a
legal or equitable discharge, release or defense of a guarantor or surety or which might otherwise limit recourse against the Guarantor. 
  

	SECTION	5. WAIVER OF SUBROGATION. 

 Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by the Guarantor hereunder, or any application by any Holder of any security or of any credits or claims, the Guarantor will not assert or exercise any rights
of any Holder or of the Guarantor against the Company to recover the amount of any payment made by the Guarantor to any Holder hereunder by way of any claim, remedy or subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnity, participation
or otherwise arising by contract, by statute, under common law or otherwise, and the Guarantor shall not have any right of recourse to or any claim against assets or property of the Company, in each case unless and until the Guaranteed Obligations
have been paid in full. Until such time (but not thereafter), the Guarantor hereby expressly waives any right to exercise any claim, right or remedy which the Guarantor may now have or hereafter acquire against the Company or any other Person that
arises under the Notes, the Note Purchase Agreement or from the performance by the Guarantor of the guaranty hereunder including any claim, remedy or right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or participation in
any claim, right or remedy of any Holder against the Company or the Guarantor, or any security that any Holder now has or hereafter acquires, whether or not such claim, right or remedy arises in equity, under contract, by statute, under common law
or otherwise. If any amount shall be paid to the Guarantor by the Company or another Person after payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations, and all or any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations shall thereafter be reinstated in whole or in part
and any Holder is required to repay any sums received by any of them in payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, this Guaranty shall be automatically reinstated and such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Holders and shall forthwith
be paid to the Holders to be credited and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured. The provisions of this paragraph shall survive the termination of this Guaranty, and any satisfaction and discharge of the Company by
virtue of any payment, court order or any Federal or state law. 
  

	SECTION	6. SUBORDINATION. 


If the Guarantor becomes the holder of any indebtedness payable by the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor, the Guarantor hereby
subordinates all indebtedness owing to it from the Company or such Subsidiary Guarantor to all indebtedness of the Company or such Subsidiary Guarantors to the Holders, and agrees that, during the continuance of any Event of Default, it shall not
accept any payment on the same until payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations and shall in no circumstance whatsoever attempt to set-off or reduce any obligations hereunder because of such indebtedness. If any amount shall nevertheless be paid
in violation of the foregoing to the Guarantor by the Company or such Subsidiary Guarantor prior to payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Holders and shall forthwith be paid to the
Holders to be credited and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured. 

  
 2(c)-9










	SECTION	7. EFFECT OF BANKRUPTCY PROCEEDINGS, ETC. 


(a) If after receipt of any payment of, or proceeds of any security applied (or intended to be applied) to the payment of all or any part
of, the Guaranteed Obligations, any Holder is for any reason compelled to surrender or voluntarily surrenders (under circumstances in which it believes it could reasonably be expected to be so compelled if it did not voluntarily surrender), such
payment or proceeds to any Person (i) because such payment or application of proceeds is or may be avoided, invalidated, declared fraudulent, set aside, determined to be void or voidable as a preference, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent
transfer, impermissible set-off or a diversion of trust funds or (ii) for any other similar reason, including, without limitation, (x) any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body having jurisdiction over any Holder or
any of their respective properties or (y) any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by any Holder with any such claimant (including the Company), then the Guaranteed Obligations or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be
reinstated and continue, and this Guaranty shall continue in full force as if such payment or proceeds had not been received, notwithstanding any revocation thereof or the cancellation of any Note or any other instrument evidencing any Guaranteed
Obligations or otherwise, and the Guarantor shall be liable to pay the Holders, and hereby do indemnify the Holders and hold them harmless for, the amount of such payment or proceeds so surrendered and all expenses (including reasonable
attorneys’ fees, court costs and expenses attributable thereto) incurred by any Holder in defense of any claim made against any of them that any payment or proceeds received by any Holder in respect of all or part of the Guaranteed Obligations
must be surrendered. The provisions of this paragraph shall survive the termination of this Guaranty, and any satisfaction and discharge of the Company by virtue of any payment, court order or any Federal or state law. 

(b) If an event permitting the acceleration of the maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall at any time have occurred and be
continuing, and such acceleration shall at such time be prevented by reason of the pendency against the Company or any other Person of any case or proceeding contemplated by Section 7(a) hereof, then, for the purpose of defining the obligation
of the Guarantor under this Guaranty, the maturity of the principal amount of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be deemed to have been accelerated with the same effect as if an acceleration had occurred in accordance with the terms of such Guaranteed
Obligations, and the Guarantor shall forthwith pay such principal amount, all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and all other Guaranteed Obligations, due or that would have become due but for such case or proceeding, without further notice or
demand. 
  

	SECTION	8. TERM OF GUARANTY. 

 This Guaranty and all guarantees, covenants and agreements of the Guarantor contained herein shall continue in full force and effect and shall not be discharged until such time as all of the principal of
and interest on the Notes, the other Guaranteed Obligations and other independent payment obligations of the Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be paid in cash and performed in full.

 Section 10.1. Preservation of Existence, Etc. The Guarantor shall maintain its legal existence as a corporation and its license or qualification and good standing in each jurisdiction in which
its ownership or lease of property or the nature of its business makes such license or qualification necessary, except as otherwise expressly permitted in Section 11.1 or except where the failure to be duly licensed or qualified or in good

 Section 10.2. Visitation
Rights. The Guarantor shall, and shall cause each of its Domestic Subsidiaries to, permit any of the officers or authorized employees or representatives of the Holders to visit and inspect any of its properties and to examine and make excerpts

certifications or information that a Holder requests to confirm compliance by the Holder with Anti-Terrorism Laws. 

SECTION 11. NEGATIVE COVENANTS. 

The Guarantor covenants so long as any of the Guaranteed Obligations are outstanding: 

Section 11.1. Merger, Consolidation, Etc. The Guarantor will not consolidate with or merge with any other Person or convey,
transfer or lease all or substantially all of its assets in a single transaction or series of 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 Guarantor as an
entirety, as the case may be (the “Successor Corporation”), shall be a solvent corporation or limited liability company organized and existing under the laws of the United States or any State thereof (including the District of
Columbia), and, if the Guarantor is not such corporation, such Successor Corporation shall have executed and delivered to each Holder its assumption of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition of all of this
Guaranty; and 
 (b) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Event of Default or Potential
Default shall have occurred and be continuing. 
 No such conveyance, transfer or lease of substantially all of the assets of
the Guarantor shall have the effect of releasing the Guarantor or any successor corporation that shall theretofore have become such in the manner prescribed in this Section 11.1 from its liability under this Guaranty. 

Section 11.2. Maximum Leverage Ratio. The Guarantor shall not at any time permit the Leverage Ratio, calculated as of the end
of each fiscal quarter for the period equal to the four (4) consecutive fiscal quarters then ended, to exceed 3.25 to 1.0. It is hereby agreed that the Leverage Ratio is deemed to be a Financial Covenant incorporated into this Guaranty as of
the date hereof in accordance with Section 12(a) and, as such, will be subject to all the terms and conditions of Section 12. 
 Section 11.3. Minimum Interest Coverage Ratio. The Guarantor shall not permit the Interest Coverage Ratio, calculated as of the end of the each fiscal quarter for the period equal to the four
(4) consecutive fiscal quarters then ended, to be less than 2.00 to 1.0. It is hereby agreed 

  
 2(c)-13









 
that the Interest Coverage Ratio is deemed to be a Financial Covenant incorporated into this Guaranty as of the date hereof in accordance with Section 12(a) and, as such, will be subject to
all the terms and conditions of Section 12. 
 SECTION 12. MOST FAVORED
LENDER. 
 (a) If at any time the Credit Agreement shall contain any financial covenant that relates specifically
to one or more numerical measures of the financial condition or results of operations of the Guarantor or the Guarantor and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis (however expressed and whether stated as a ratio, as a fixed threshold, as an event
of default, or otherwise) (or any thereof shall be amended, restated or otherwise modified) and such financial covenant is not contained in this Guaranty or would be more beneficial to the Holders than the Leverage Ratio or the Interest Coverage
Ratio, as applicable, incorporated into this Guaranty as of the date hereof (any such financial covenant, a “Financial Covenant”), then the Guarantor shall promptly (but in any event within ten Business Days from the occurrence
thereof) provide written notice thereof to the Holders, which notice shall refer specifically to this Section 12 and shall describe in reasonable detail the Financial Covenant and the relevant ratios or thresholds contained therein. Thereupon,
such Financial Covenant shall be deemed automatically incorporated by reference into this Guaranty, mutatis mutandis, as if set forth fully herein, without any further action required on the part of any Person, effective as of the date when
such Financial Covenant became effective under such Credit Agreement. Upon the request of the Required Holders, the Guarantor and the Required Holders shall enter into an additional agreement or an amendment to this Guaranty (as the Required Holders
may request), evidencing the incorporation of such Financial Covenant into this Guaranty substantially as provided for in the Credit Agreement. 
 (b) Provided that no Potential Default or Event of Default is in existence at such time, any Financial Covenant incorporated into this Guaranty pursuant to Section 12(a) shall automatically without
any action required to be taken by the Guarantor or any Holder (i) be subject to any subsequent waiver of the correlative covenant to such Financial Covenant under the Credit Agreement for the same time period as waived thereunder, (ii) be
deemed amended, restated or otherwise modified in this Guaranty to the same effect as the correlative covenant to such Financial Covenant shall be amended, restated or otherwise modified under the Credit Agreement and (iii) be deemed deleted
from this Agreement at such time as the correlative covenant to such Financial Covenant shall be deleted from the Credit Agreement or at such time as the applicable Credit Agreement shall be terminated and, in the case of any such termination, no
amounts of principal or interest shall be outstanding thereunder (and in any such case under clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above, the Guarantor shall promptly (but in any event within five Business Days from the occurrence thereof) provide
written notice thereof to the Holders, which notice shall refer specifically to this Section 12, shall include a statement that no Potential Default or Event of Default is then in existence and shall describe in reasonable detail the relevant
waiver, amendment, restatement, modification or deletion of such Financial Covenant. Upon the request of the Guarantor, the Holders shall enter into an additional agreement, waiver or an amendment to this Guaranty (as the Guarantor may request),
evidencing such waiver, amendment, restatement, modification or deletion of such Financial Covenant in the Credit Agreement. 

(c) To the extent that the Guarantor shall directly or indirectly pay or cause to be paid


  
 2(c)-14









 
any remuneration, by way of fee, additional interest or otherwise, as consideration for or as an inducement to the entering into by any financier under any Credit Agreement of any waiver,

Company or any Affiliates), except that no such amendment or waiver may, without the written consent of the Holder of each Series of Notes at the time outstanding affected thereby, (i) change the percentage of the principal amount of the Series

 2(c)-26









 Section 18.2. Solicitation of Holders of Notes. 

(a) Solicitation. The Guarantor will provide each Holder (irrespective of the amount of Notes then owned by it) with sufficient
information, sufficiently far in advance of the date a decision is required, to enable such holder to make an informed and considered decision with respect to any proposed amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the provisions hereof. The
Guarantor will deliver executed or true and correct copies of each amendment, waiver or consent effected pursuant to the provisions of this Section 18 to each Holder of outstanding Notes affected thereby promptly following the date on which it
is executed and delivered by, or receives the consent or approval of, the requisite Holders of such Notes. 
 (b)
Payment. The Guarantor will not directly or indirectly pay or cause to be paid any remuneration, whether by way of supplemental or additional interest, fee or otherwise, or grant any security, to any Holder of Notes of a Series as
consideration for or as an inducement to the entering into by any such Holder of Notes or any waiver or amendment of any of the terms and provisions hereof unless such remuneration is concurrently paid, or security is concurrently granted, on the
same terms, ratably to each Holder of Notes of such Series then outstanding even if such holder did not consent to such waiver or amendment. With respect to any such proposed amendment or waiver, the Guarantor will not, directly or indirectly,
purchase or offer to purchase any Note of a Series unless such offer is currently made, on the same terms, ratably to each Holder of Notes of such Series then outstanding. 
 Section 18.3. Binding Effect, Etc. Any amendment or waiver consented to as provided in this Section 18 by a Series of Notes applies equally to all Holders of Notes of such Series and is
binding upon them and upon each future Holder of any Note of such Series and upon the Guarantor 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, Potential Default or Event of Default not expressly amended or waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing between the Guarantor and any Holder nor any delay in exercising any rights hereunder
shall operate as a waiver of any rights of any such Holder. 
 Section 18.4. Notes Held by Guarantor, 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 Guaranty, or have directed
the taking of any action provided herein 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 Guarantor, the Company or any of
their Affiliates shall be deemed not to be outstanding. 
 SECTION 19. EXPENSES, ETC.

Guarantor will pay all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees of a special counsel and, if reasonably required, local or other counsel) incurred by each Holder in connection with such transactions and in connection with any
amendments,

process appointed pursuant to the provisions of Section 27. The Guarantor 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 full extent permitted by law, be taken and held to be valid personal service upon and personal delivery to such party. Notices hereunder shall be conclusively presumed received as evidenced by a delivery receipt furnished by
