Melville, NY 11747 

$200,000,000 Master Note Facility 
 APRIL 27, 2012 
  

	TO	METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY (“MLIC”) AND METLIFE
INVESTMENT ADVISORS COMPANY, LLC (“MLIAC,” and together with MLIC, “MetLife”) 


 

	TO	EACH METLIFE AFFILIATE WHICH BECOMES BOUND BY
THIS AGREEMENT AS HEREINAFTER PROVIDED 

 Ladies and
Gentlemen: 
 Henry Schein, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), agrees with MetLife and each of the
Purchasers, as defined herein, as follows: 
  

	1.	AUTHORIZATION OF NOTES. 


The Company may, from time to time, authorize the issue of its senior promissory notes (the “Shelf Notes”, such term to
include any such notes issued in substitution thereof pursuant to Section 13) in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $200,000,000, to be dated the date of issue thereof, to mature, in the case of each Shelf Note so issued, no more than
fifteen (15) years after the date of original issuance thereof, to have an average life, in the case of each Shelf Note so issued, of no more than twelve (12) years after the date of original issuance thereof, to bear interest on the
unpaid balance thereof from the date thereof at the rate per annum, and to have such other particular terms, as shall be set forth, in the case of each Shelf Note so issued, in the Confirmation of Acceptance with respect to such Note delivered
pursuant to Section 2.5, to be substantially in the form of Exhibit 1 attached hereto. The terms “Note” and “Notes” as used herein shall include each Shelf Note delivered pursuant to any provision of this
Agreement and each Note delivered in substitution or exchange for any such Note pursuant to any such provision. Notes which have (i) the same final maturity, (ii) the same principal prepayment dates, (iii) the same principal
prepayment amounts (as a percentage of the original principal amount of each Note), (iv) the same interest rate, (v) the same interest payment dates, (vi) the same interest payment periods, and (vii) the same date of issuance
(which, in the case of a Note issued in exchange for another Note, shall be deemed for these purposes the date on which such Note’s ultimate predecessor Note was issued), are herein called a “Series” of Notes. Certain
capitalized and other terms used in this Agreement are defined in Schedule B; and references to a “Schedule” or an “Exhibit” are, unless otherwise specified, to a Schedule or an Exhibit attached to this Agreement. 

 

	2.	SALE AND PURCHASE OF SHELF NOTES. 

 2.1. Facility. MetLife is willing to consider, in its sole discretion, from time to time, the purchase of Shelf Notes pursuant to this Agreement. The willingness of MetLife to consider such
purchase of Shelf Notes is herein called the “Facility”. At any time, the aggregate principal 







 
amount of Shelf Notes stated in Section 1, minus the aggregate principal amount of Shelf Notes purchased and sold pursuant to this Agreement prior to such time, minus the
aggregate principal amount of Accepted Notes (as hereinafter defined) which have not yet been purchased and sold hereunder prior to such time, is herein called the “Available Facility Amount” at such time. NOTWITHSTANDING THE
WILLINGNESS OF METLIFE TO CONSIDER PURCHASES OF SHELF NOTES, THIS AGREEMENT IS ENTERED INTO ON THE EXPRESS UNDERSTANDING THAT NEITHER METLIFE NOR ANY METLIFE AFFILIATE SHALL BE OBLIGATED TO MAKE OR ACCEPT OFFERS TO PURCHASE SHELF NOTES, OR TO QUOTE
RATES, SPREADS OR OTHER TERMS WITH RESPECT TO SPECIFIC PURCHASES OF SHELF NOTES, AND THE FACILITY SHALL IN NO WAY BE CONSTRUED AS A COMMITMENT BY METLIFE OR ANY METLIFE AFFILIATE. 

2.2. Issuance Period. Shelf Notes may be issued and sold pursuant to this Agreement until the earlier
of (i) the third anniversary of the date of this Agreement (or if such anniversary date is not a Business Day, the Business Day next preceding such anniversary) and (ii) the thirtieth (30th) day after MetLife shall have given to the Company, or the
Company shall have given to MetLife, a written notice stating that it elects to terminate the issuance and sale of Shelf Notes pursuant to this Agreement (or if such thirtieth day is not a Business Day, the Business Day next preceding such thirtieth
day). The period during which Shelf Notes may be issued and sold pursuant to this Agreement is herein called the “Issuance Period”. 
 2.3. Request for Purchase. The Company may from time to time during the Issuance Period make requests for purchases of Shelf Notes (each such request being herein called a “Request
for Purchase”). Each Request for Purchase shall be made to MetLife by email or overnight delivery service, and shall (i) specify the aggregate principal amount of Shelf Notes covered thereby and not be greater than the Available
Facility Amount at the time such Request for Purchase is made, (ii) specify the principal amounts, final maturities and principal prepayment dates and amounts of the Shelf Notes covered thereby, (iii) specify the use of proceeds of such
Shelf Notes, (iv) specify whether interest payments are to be made quarterly or semi-annually, (v) specify the proposed day for the closing of the purchase and sale of such Shelf Notes, which shall be a Business Day during the Issuance
Period not less than ten (10) days and not more than thirty (30) days after the making of such Request for Purchase, (vi) specify the number of the account and the name and address of the depository institution to which the purchase
prices of such Shelf Notes are to be transferred on the Closing Day for such purchase and sale, (vii) certify that the representations and warranties contained in Section 5 are true in all material respects on and as of the date of such
Request for Purchase and that there exists on the date of such Request for Purchase no Event of Default or Default, and (viii) be substantially in the form of Exhibit 2 attached hereto. The initial Request for Purchase made pursuant to
this Agreement (the “Initial Request”) shall not be less than $20,000,000 in aggregate principal amount. Any Request for Purchase made after the Initial Request shall not be less than $10,000,000 in aggregate principal amount. Each
Request for Purchase shall be in writing signed by the Company and shall be deemed made when received by MetLife. 
 2.4.
Rate Quotes. Not later than five (5) Business Days after the Company shall have given MetLife a Request for Purchase pursuant to Section 2.3, MetLife may, but shall be under no obligation to, provide to the Company by telephone
or e-mail, in each case between 9:30 

  
 2 








 
A.M. and 1:30 P.M. New York City local time (or such later time as MetLife may elect) interest rate quotes for principal amounts, maturities and principal prepayment schedules and interest
payment periods (whether quarterly or semi-annually) of Shelf Notes specified in such Request for Purchase (each such interest rate quote provided in response to a Request for Purchase herein called a “Quotation”). Each Quotation
shall represent the interest rate per annum payable on the outstanding principal balance of such Shelf Notes at which a MetLife Affiliate would be willing to purchase such Shelf Notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof. 

2.5. Acceptance. Within the Acceptance Window, an Authorized Officer of the Company may, subject to Section 2.6, elect
to accept on behalf of the Company a Quotation as to the aggregate principal amount of the Shelf Notes specified in the related Request for Purchase (each such Shelf Note being herein called an “Accepted Note” and such acceptance
being herein called an “Acceptance”). The day the Company notifies MetLife of an Acceptance with respect to any Accepted Notes is herein called the “Acceptance Day” for such Accepted Notes. Any Quotation as to which
MetLife does not receive an Acceptance within the Acceptance Window shall expire, and no purchase or sale of Shelf Notes hereunder shall be made based on any such expired Quotation. Subject to Section 2.6 and the other terms and conditions
hereof, the Company agrees to sell to one or more MetLife Affiliates, and such MetLife Affiliates agree to purchase the Accepted Notes at 100% of the principal amount of such Notes. As soon as practicable following the Acceptance Day, the Company
and each MetLife Affiliate which is to purchase any such Accepted Notes (each, a “Purchaser” and collectively, the “Purchasers”) will execute a confirmation of such Acceptance substantially in the form of Exhibit
3 attached hereto (herein called a “Confirmation of Acceptance”). If the Company should fail to execute and return to MetLife within three (3) Business Days following the Company’s receipt thereof a Confirmation of
Acceptance with respect to any Accepted Notes, MetLife may, after consultation with the Purchasers (as necessary), at its election at any time prior to MetLife’s receipt thereof cancel the closing with respect to such Accepted Notes by so
notifying the Company in writing. 
 2.6. Market Disruption. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.5,
any Quotation provided pursuant to Section 2.4 shall expire if, prior to the time an Acceptance with respect to such Quotation shall have been notified to MetLife in accordance with Section 2.5, in the case of any Shelf Notes, the domestic
market for U.S. Treasury securities or derivatives shall have closed or there shall have occurred a general suspension, material limitation, or significant disruption of trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange or in the
domestic market for U.S. Treasury securities or derivatives. No purchase or sale of Shelf Notes hereunder shall be made based on such expired Quotation. If the Company thereafter notifies MetLife of the Acceptance of any such Quotation, such
Acceptance shall be ineffective for all purposes of this Agreement, and MetLife shall promptly notify the Company that the provisions of this Section 2.6 are applicable with respect to such Acceptance. 

2.7. Fees. 
 (a) Structuring Fee. In consideration for the time, effort and expense involved in the preparation, negotiation and execution of this Agreement, at the time of the execution and delivery of this
Agreement by the Company and MetLife, the Company will pay to MetLife in immediately available funds a fee (herein called the “Structuring Fee”) in the amount of $75,000, in accordance with the wire instructions that MetLife shall
provide. 

  
 3 








 (b) Delayed Delivery Fee. If the closing of the purchase and sale of
any Accepted Note is delayed for any reason beyond the original Closing Day for such Accepted Note, the Company will pay to each Purchaser which shall have agreed to purchase such Accepted Note on the Cancellation Date or actual closing date of such
purchase and sale, an amount (herein called the “Delayed Delivery Fee”) equal to the product of (i) the amount determined by the Lead Purchaser, after consultation with the other Purchasers, to be the amount by which the bond
equivalent yield per annum of such Accepted Note exceeds the investment rate per annum on an alternative Dollar investment of the highest quality selected, by the Lead Purchaser, after consultation with the other Purchasers, and having a maturity
date or dates the same as, or closest to, the Rescheduled Closing Day from time to time fixed for the delayed delivery of such Accepted Note, (ii) the principal amount of such Accepted Note, and (iii) a fraction the numerator of which is
equal to the number of actual days elapsed from and including the original Closing Day for such Accepted Note to but excluding the date of such payment, and the denominator of which is three hundred and sixty (360). In no case shall the Delayed
Delivery Fee be less than zero (0). Nothing contained herein shall obligate any Purchaser to purchase any Accepted Note on any day other than the Closing Day for such Accepted Note, as the same may be rescheduled from time to time in compliance with
Section 3.2. 
 (c) Cancellation Fee. If, on or after the Acceptance Day, the Company at any time
notifies MetLife and each Purchaser in writing that the Company is canceling the closing of the purchase and sale of any Accepted Note, or if MetLife or a Purchaser notifies the Company in writing under the circumstances set forth in the last
sentence of Section 2.5 or the penultimate sentence of Section 3.2 that the closing of the purchase and sale of such Accepted Note is to be canceled, or if the closing of the purchase and sale of such Accepted Note is not consummated on or
prior to the last day of the Issuance Period (the date of any such notification, or the last day of the Issuance Period, as the case may be, being herein called the “Cancellation Date”), the Company will pay to each Purchaser which
shall have agreed to purchase such Accepted Note no later than one Business Day after the Cancellation Date in immediately available funds an amount (the “Cancellation Fee”) equal to the product of (i) the principal amount of
such Accepted Note and (ii) the quotient (expressed in decimals) obtained by dividing (x) the excess of the ask price (as determined by the Lead Purchaser after consultation with the other Purchasers) of the Hedge Treasury Note(s) on the
Cancellation Date over the bid price (as determined, by the Lead Purchaser after consultation with the other Purchasers,) of the Hedge Treasury Note(s) on the Acceptance Day for such Accepted Note by (y) such bid price, with the foregoing bid
and ask prices as reported on the Bridge\Telerate Service, or if such information ceases to be available on the Bridge\Telerate Service, any publicly available source of such market data selected, by the Lead Purchaser after consultation with the
other Purchasers, and rounded to the second decimal place.

	3.	CLOSING. 

 3.1.
Facility Closings. Not later than 11:30 A.M. (New York City local time) on the Closing Day for any Accepted Notes, the Company will deliver to each Purchaser listed in the Confirmation of Acceptance relating thereto at the offices of MetLife, 10
Park Avenue, Morristown, New Jersey 07962-1902, Attention: Law Department, or at such other place pursuant to the written directions to the Company, the Accepted Notes to be purchased by such Purchaser in the form of one or more Notes in authorized
denominations as such Purchaser may request for each Series of Accepted Notes to be purchased on the Closing Day, dated the Closing Day and registered in such Purchaser’s name (or in the name of its nominee), against payment of the purchase
price thereof by transfer of immediately available funds for credit to the Company’s account specified in the Request for Purchase of such Notes. Each Shelf Closing are hereafter sometimes each referred to as a “Closing”. 

3.2. Rescheduled Facility Closings. If the Company fails to tender to any Purchaser the Accepted Notes to be purchased by such
Purchaser on the scheduled Closing Day for such Accepted Notes as provided above in Section 3.1, or any of the conditions specified in Section 4 shall not have been fulfilled by the time required on such scheduled Closing Day, the Company
shall, prior to 2:00 P.M., New York City local time, on such scheduled Closing Day notify each Purchaser in writing whether (a) such closing is to be rescheduled (such rescheduled date to be a Business Day during the Issuance Period not less

	8.	PAYMENT AND PREPAYMENT OF THE NOTES. 

 8.1. Maturity. 
 Each Series of Shelf Notes shall be subject to
required prepayments, if any, set forth in the Notes of such Series, provided that upon any partial prepayment of the Shelf Notes of any 

  
 21 









 
Series pursuant to Section 8.2, 8.7 or 8.8, the principal amount of each required prepayment of the Shelf Notes of such Series becoming due under this Section 8.1 on and after the date
of such prepayment shall be reduced in the same proportion as the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Shelf Notes of such Series is reduced as a result of such prepayment. 

8.2. Optional Prepayments with Make-Whole Amount. 
 The Company may, at its option, upon notice as provided below, prepay at any time all, or from time to time any part of, any Series of Notes, in a principal amount of $1,000,000 or any integral multiple
of $100,000 in excess thereof in the case of a partial prepayment, at 100% of the principal amount so prepaid, and the Make-Whole Amount determined for the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount. The Company will give each holder of
the Series of Notes to be prepaid written notice of each optional prepayment under this Section 8.2 not less than 30 days and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for such prepayment. Each such notice shall specify such date (which
shall be a Business Day), the aggregate principal amount of the Series of Notes to be prepaid on such date, the principal amount of each Note held by such holder to be prepaid (determined in accordance with Section 8.3), and the interest to be
paid on the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount being prepaid, and shall be accompanied by a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer as to the estimated Make-Whole Amount due in connection with such prepayment (calculated as if
the date of such notice were the date of the prepayment), setting forth the details of such computation. Two Business Days prior to such prepayment, the Company shall deliver to each holder of the Series of Notes to be prepaid a certificate of a
Senior Financial Officer specifying the calculation of such Make-Whole Amount as of the specified prepayment date. 
 8.3.
Allocation of Partial Prepayments. 
 In the case of each partial prepayment of the Notes of any Series pursuant to
Section 8.2, the principal amount of the Notes of such Series to be prepaid shall be allocated among all of the Notes of such Series at the time outstanding in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts
thereof not theretofore called for prepayment. 
 8.4. Maturity; Surrender, Etc. 

In the case of each prepayment of Notes of any Series pursuant to this Section 8, the principal amount of each Note to be prepaid
shall mature and become due and payable on the date fixed for such prepayment (which shall be a Business Day), together with interest on such principal amount accrued to such date and the applicable Make-Whole Amount, if any. From and after such
date, unless the Company shall fail to pay such principal amount when so due and payable, together with the interest and Make-Whole Amount, if any, as aforesaid, interest on such principal amount shall cease to accrue. Any Note paid or prepaid 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 prepaid principal amount of any Note. 
 8.5. Purchase of Notes. 
 The Company will not and will not
permit any Affiliate to purchase, redeem, prepay or otherwise acquire, directly or indirectly, any of the outstanding Notes except (a) upon the 

  
 22 









 
payment or prepayment of the Notes in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Notes or (b) pursuant to an offer to purchase made by the Company or an Affiliate pro rata to
the holders of all Notes at the time outstanding upon the same terms and conditions. Any such offer shall provide each holder with sufficient information to enable it to make an informed decision with respect to such offer, and shall remain open for
at least fifteen (15) Business Days. If the holders of more than 50% of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding accept such offer, the Company shall promptly notify the remaining holders of such fact and the expiration date for the
acceptance by holders of Notes of such offer shall be extended by the number of days necessary to give each such remaining holder at least ten (10) Business Days from its receipt of such notice to accept such offer. The Company will promptly
cancel all Notes acquired by it or any Affiliate pursuant to any payment, prepayment or purchase of Notes pursuant to any provision of this Agreement and no Notes may be issued in substitution or exchange for any such Notes. 

8.6. Make-Whole Amount. 
 The term “Make-Whole Amount” means, with respect to any Note, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Discounted Value of the Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to the Called
Principal of such Note over the amount of such Called Principal, provided that the Make-Whole Amount may in no event be less than zero. For the purposes of determining the Make-Whole Amount, the following terms have the following meanings:

 “Called Principal” means, with respect to any Note, the principal of such Note that is to be prepaid
pursuant to Section 8.2, Section 8.7 or Section 8.8or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1. 
 “Discounted Value” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the amount obtained by discounting all Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to such Called Principal from
their respective scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in accordance with accepted financial practice and at a discount factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on the Notes is
payable) equal to the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called Principal. 
 “Reinvestment Yield” means,
with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, 0.50% over the yield to maturity implied by (i) the yields reported as of 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called
Principal, on the display designated as “Page PX1” (or such other display as may replace Page PX1) on Bloomberg Financial Markets for the most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities having a maturity equal to
the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date, or (ii) if such yields are not reported as of such time or the yields reported as of such time are not ascertainable (including by way of interpolation), the
Treasury Constant Maturity Series Yields reported, for the latest day for which such yields have been so reported as of the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve Statistical
Release H.15 (or any comparable successor publication) for U.S. Treasury securities having a constant maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. In the case of each determination under clause
(i) or clause (ii), as the case may be, of the preceding sentence, such 

  
 23 









 
implied yield will be determined, if necessary, by (a) converting U.S. Treasury bill quotations to bond equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and
(b) interpolating linearly between (1) the applicable actively traded, on-the-run U.S. Treasury security with the maturity closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) the applicable actively traded, on-the-run U.S.
Treasury security with the maturity closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield will be rounded to that number of decimals as appears in the coupon for the applicable Note. 

“Remaining Average Life” means, with respect to any Called Principal, the number of years (calculated to the nearest
one-twelfth year) obtained by dividing (i) such Called Principal into (ii) the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (a) the principal component of each Remaining Scheduled Payment with respect to such Called Principal by
(b) the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth year) that will elapse between the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal and the scheduled due date of such Remaining Scheduled Payment. 

“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, all payments of such Called
Principal and interest thereon that would be due after the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such Called Principal were made prior to its scheduled due date, provided that if such Settlement Date is not a date on
which interest payments are due to be made under the terms of the Notes, then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on such
Settlement Date pursuant to Section 8.2, Section 8.7, Section 8.8 or Section 12.1. 
 “Settlement
Date” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the date on which such Called Principal is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2, Section 8.7 or Section 8.8 or has become or is declared to be immediately due
and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires. 
 8.7. Prepayment on a Change in Control.

 (a) The Company shall, promptly upon any Responsible Officer obtaining actual knowledge of the occurrence
of a Change in Control, give written notice of such fact (the “Company Notice”) to all holders of the Notes. The Company Notice shall (i) describe the facts and circumstances of such Change in Control in reasonable detail,
(ii) refer to this Section 8.7 and the rights of the holders hereunder and state that a Change in Control has occurred, (iii) contain an offer by the Company to prepay the entire unpaid principal amount of Notes held by each holder,
together with interest thereon to the prepayment date selected by the Company with respect to each Note, plus the Make-Whole Amount with respect thereto, which prepayment shall be on a date specified in the Company Notice and which date shall be a
Business Day not less than 30 days and not more than 45 days after such Company Notice is given, (iv) request each holder to notify the Company in writing by a stated date (the “Change in Control Response Date”), which date is
not less than 30 days after such holder’s receipt of the Company Notice, of its acceptance or rejection of such prepayment offer and (v) be accompanied by a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer as to the


  
 24 









 
estimated Make-Whole Amount due in connection with such prepayment (calculated as if the date of such Company Notice were the date of the prepayment), setting forth the details of such
computation. If a holder does not notify the Company as provided above, then the holder shall be deemed to have accepted such offer. 
 (b) Two Business Days prior to the prepayment date specified in the Company Notice, the Company shall deliver to each holder of Notes to be prepaid a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer specifying
the calculation of such Make-Whole Amount as of the prepayment date. 
 (c) On the prepayment date specified in
the Company Notice, the entire unpaid principal amount of the Notes held by each holder of Notes who has accepted such prepayment offer (in accordance with paragraph (a) above), together with interest thereon to the prepayment date with respect
to each such Note and the Make-Whole Amount with respect thereto shall become due and payable. 
 8.8. Prepayment in
Connection with a Disposition. 
 (a) If the Company elects to prepay the Notes pursuant to
Section 10.7 in connection with any Disposition, the Company shall give written notice of such prepayment (a “Disposition Prepayment Notice”) to each holder of a Note, which Disposition Prepayment Notice shall (i) describe
the facts and circumstances of such Disposition in reasonable detail, (ii) refer to this Section 8.8 and the rights of the holders of Notes hereunder, (iii) identify a date, which shall be no more than 60 days and not less than 5
Business Days after the date of the Disposition Prepayment Notice, on which the Company shall prepay the Pro Rata Portion of the unpaid principal amount of the Notes issued by the Company and held by such holder, together with interest thereon to
the prepayment date and Make-Whole Amount, if any (showing in such Disposition Prepayment Notice the amount of the prepayment, the interest and an estimate of the Make-Whole Amount which would be paid on such prepayment date (calculated as if the
date of such Disposition Prepayment Notice was the date of prepayment)). 
 (b) On the prepayment date specified
in the Disposition Prepayment Notice, the appropriate portion of unpaid principal amount of the Notes held by each holder of a Note, together with the accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the prepayment date and the Make-Whole Amount, if any,
shall become due and payable.

 25 









 
the USA Patriot Act and Environmental Laws, and will obtain and maintain in effect all licenses, certificates, permits, franchises and other governmental authorizations necessary to the ownership
of their respective properties or to the conduct of their respective businesses, in each case to the extent necessary to ensure that non-compliance with such laws, ordinances or governmental rules or regulations or failures to obtain or maintain in
effect such licenses, certificates, permits, franchises and other governmental authorizations could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

9.2. Insurance. 
 The Company will, and will cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurers, insurance with respect to their respective properties and businesses
against such casualties and contingencies, of such types, on such terms and in such amounts (including deductibles, co-insurance and self-insurance, if adequate reserves are maintained with respect thereto) as is customary in the case of entities

discontinuing the operation and the maintenance of any of its properties if such discontinuance is desirable in the conduct of its business and such discontinuance could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.

become due and payable and before they have become delinquent and all claims for which sums have become due and payable which, if unpaid, would by law (without satisfaction of any other conditions) become a Lien on properties or assets of the
Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than Liens permitted under Section 10.5), provided that neither the Company nor any Restricted Subsidiary need pay any such tax, assessment, charge or levy if (i) the amount, applicability or
validity thereof is contested by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary on a timely basis in good faith and in appropriate proceedings, and the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary has established adequate reserves therefor in accordance with GAAP
on the books of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary or (ii) the nonpayment of all such taxes, assessments, charges and levies in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

  
 26

to Sections 10.2 and 10.7, the Company will at all times preserve and keep in full force and effect the corporate existence of each of its Restricted Subsidiaries (unless merged into the Company or a Wholly-Owned Restricted Subsidiary) and all

reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 9.6. Books and Records. 

The Company will, and will cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, maintain, in all material respects, proper books of record and

Unrestricted Subsidiary or Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, as of the date of such acquisition or formation and any such Subsidiary not so designated within such 30 day period shall be deemed, on and after the date of acquisition or formation
thereof and without any further action by the Company or any holder of Notes, to have been designated by the Company as a Restricted Subsidiary. Each Subsidiary existing as on the date hereof designated as a Restricted Subsidiary in Schedule 5.4
shall, subject to Section 9(c), be a Restricted Subsidiary on and after the date hereof and all other existing Subsidiaries, if any, listed as a Unrestricted Subsidiary in such Schedule 5.4 shall, subject to Section 9.9(b) hereof, be
Unrestricted Subsidiaries on and after the date hereof. 
 (b) Restricted Subsidiary Coverage. At the time
of such designation or redesignation, each of Consolidated EBITDA and Adjusted Consolidated Total Assets must represent not less than 85% of the consolidated earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization of the Company and its
Subsidiaries (calculated on the same basis as Consolidated EBITDA as determined as of the last day of the last four fiscal quarter period of the Company then last ended (taken as one accounting period)) and Consolidated Total Assets (as of the end
of the most recently ended fiscal quarter), respectively. 
 (c) Right of Redesignation. The Company may,
at any time, redesignate any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary, or any Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, provided, however, that: 

(i) if such Subsidiary initially is designated a Restricted Subsidiary, then such Restricted Subsidiary may be
subsequently redesignated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary and such Unrestricted Subsidiary may be subsequently redesignated as a Restricted Subsidiary, but no further changes in designation may be made; 

(ii) if such Subsidiary initially is designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary, then such Unrestricted Subsidiary may be
subsequently redesignated as a Restricted Subsidiary and such Restricted Subsidiary may be subsequently redesignated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, but no further changes in designation may be made; and 

  
 29 









 (iii) if immediately after giving effect to such redesignation, and assuming
that all obligations, liabilities and investments of, and all Liens on the property of, such Subsidiary being so designated were incurred or made contemporaneously with such designation, no Default or Event of Default exists or would exist.

 (d) Pro Forma Effect upon Redesignation. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, for purposes
of determining compliance with the financial covenants contained in this Agreement, any designation or redesignation, as the case may be, shall be given pro forma effect upon such designation or redesignation, such that such Subsidiary shall be
included or excluded, as applicable, from the beginning of any applicable period. 
 (e) Disposition upon
Redesignation. The designation of a Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary shall be deemed to be a Disposition of all such Subsidiary’s Property by the Company for all purposes of this Agreement; however, Section 10.7(g)
shall not apply to such deemed Disposition. 
 (f) Effectiveness. Other than as set forth in the last two
sentences of Section 9.9(a) hereof, any designation under this Section 9.9 that satisfies all of the conditions set forth in this Section 9.9 shall become effective, for purposes of this Agreement, on the day that notice thereof shall
have been delivered by the Company to each holder of Notes in accordance with the provisions of Section 18.

mature and the entire unpaid principal amount of such Notes, plus (x) all accrued and unpaid interest thereon (including, without limitation, interest accrued thereon at the Default Rate) and (y) the Make-Whole Amount determined in respect
of such principal amount (to the full extent permitted by applicable law), 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. The Company
acknowledges, and the parties hereto agree, that each holder of a Note has the right to maintain its investment in the Notes free from repayment by the Company (except as herein specifically provided for) and that the provision for payment of a
Make-Whole Amount by the Company in the event that the Notes are prepaid or are accelerated as a result of an Event of Default, is intended to provide compensation for the deprivation of such right under such circumstances. 

12.2. Other Remedies. 
 If any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and irrespective of whether any Notes have become or have been declared immediately due and payable under Section 12.1, the holder
of any Note at the time outstanding may proceed to protect and enforce the rights of such holder by an action at law, suit in equity or other appropriate proceeding, whether for the specific performance of any agreement contained herein or in any
Note, or for an injunction against a violation of any of the terms hereof or thereof, or in aid of the exercise of any power granted hereby or thereby or by law or otherwise. 
 12.3. Rescission. 
 At any time after any Notes have been declared
due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1(b) or (c), the Required Holders, by written notice to the Company, may rescind and annul any such declaration and its consequences if (a) the Company has paid all overdue interest on the Notes, all
principal of and Make-Whole Amount, if any, on any Notes that are due and payable and are unpaid other than by reason of such declaration, and all interest on such overdue principal and Make-Whole Amount, if any, and (to the extent permitted by
applicable law) any overdue interest in respect of the Notes, at the Default Rate, (b) neither the Company nor any 

  
 41 









 
other Person shall have paid any amounts that have become due solely by reason of such declaration, (c) all Events of Default and Defaults, other than non-payment of amounts that have become
due solely by reason of such declaration, have been cured or have been waived pursuant to Section 17, and (d) no judgment or decree has been entered for the payment of any monies due pursuant hereto or to the Notes. No rescission and
annulment under this Section 12.3 will extend to or affect any subsequent Event of Default or Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
 12.4. 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. Without limiting the obligations of
the Company under Section 15, the Company will pay to the holder of each Note on demand such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover all costs and expenses of such holder incurred in any enforcement or collection under this
Section 12, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements. 
  

	13.	REGISTRATION; EXCHANGE; SUBSTITUTION OF NOTES. 

 13.1. 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 that is an Institutional Investor promptly upon request therefor, a complete and correct copy of the names and addresses of all registered
holders of Notes. 
 13.2. Transfer and Exchange of Notes. 

Upon surrender of any Note to the Company at the address and to the attention of the designated officer (all as specified in
Section 18) for registration of transfer or exchange (and in the case of a surrender for registration of transfer accompanied by a written instrument of transfer duly executed by the registered holder of such Note or such holder’s attorney
duly authorized in writing and accompanied by the relevant name, address and other details 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) of the same Series as such surrendered Note in exchange therefor, in an aggregate 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 

  
 42 









 
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 $100,000, 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 $100,000. Any transferee, by its acceptance of a Note registered in its name (or the name of its nominee), shall be deemed to have made the representation set forth in Section 6.2. 

13.3. Replacement of Notes. 
 Upon receipt by the Company at the address and to the attention of the designated officer (all as specified in Section 18(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 (provided that if the holder of
such Note is, or is a nominee for, an original Purchaser or another holder of a Note with a minimum net worth of at least $50,000,000 or a Qualified Institutional Buyer, such Person’s own unsecured agreement of indemnity shall be deemed to be
satisfactory), 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 of the same Series as such
lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated 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. 
  

	14.	PAYMENTS ON NOTES. 


14.1. Place of Payment. 
 Subject to Section 14.2, payments of principal, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest becoming due and payable on the Notes shall be made in New York, New York, at the principal office of JPMorgan
Chase Bank, N.A. 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 such jurisdiction. 
 14.2. Home Office Payment.

 So long as any Purchaser or its nominee shall be the holder of any Note, and notwithstanding anything contained in
Section 14.1 or in such Note to the contrary, the Company will pay all sums becoming due on such Note for principal, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest and all other amounts by the method and at the address specified for such purpose below
such Purchaser’s name as specified in such Purchaser’s Confirmation of Acceptance, or by such 

  
 43 









 
other 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 concurrently with or reasonably promptly after payment or prepayment in full of any Note, such Purchaser shall surrender such 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 14.1. Prior to any sale or other disposition of any Note held by a
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 13.2. The Company will afford the benefits of this Section 14.2 to any Institutional Investor that is the direct or indirect transferee of any Note purchased by a Purchaser under this Agreement and that has made
the same agreement relating to such Note as the Purchasers have made in this Section 14.2. 
  

	15.	EXPENSES, ETC. 

 15.1.
Transaction Expenses. 
 Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Company will pay
all reasonable and invoiced costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees of a special counsel and, if reasonably required by the Required Holders, local or other counsel) incurred by the Purchasers and each other holder of a Note in
connection with such transactions and in connection with any amendments, waivers or consents under or in respect of this Agreement or the Notes (whether or not such amendment, waiver or consent becomes effective), including, without limitation:
(a) the costs and expenses incurred in enforcing or defending (or determining whether or how to enforce or defend) any rights under this Agreement or the Notes or in responding to any subpoena or other legal process or informal investigative
demand issued in connection with this Agreement or the Notes, or by reason of being a holder of any Note, (b) the costs and expenses, including financial advisors’ fees, incurred in connection with the insolvency or bankruptcy of the
Company or any Subsidiary or in connection with any work-out or restructuring of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the Notes and (c) the costs and expenses incurred in connection with the initial filing of this Agreement and all
related documents and financial information with the SVO, provided that such costs and expenses under this clause (c) shall not exceed $3,000 per Series of Notes. The Company will pay, and will save each Purchaser and each other holder of a
Note harmless from, all claims in respect of any fees, costs or expenses, if any, of brokers and finders (other than those, if any, retained by a Purchaser or other holder in connection with its purchase of the Notes). On the date hereof, the
Company shall have paid the reasonable, documented and invoiced fees and disbursements of MetLife’s special counsel, Bingham McCutchen LLP, as evidenced by a statement of such counsel rendered to the Company at least one Business Day prior to
the date hereof. 
 15.2. Survival. 

The obligations of the Company under this Section 15 will survive the payment or transfer of any Note, the enforcement, amendment or
waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the Notes, and the termination of this Agreement. 

  
 44 










	16.	SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; ENTIRE AGREEMENT. 

 All representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Notes, the purchase or transfer by any 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 such 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 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 each Purchaser and the Company and supersede all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof. 

 

	17.	AMENDMENT AND WAIVER. 


17.1. 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 Required Holders, except that (a) no amendment or waiver of any of the provisions of Section 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or 21, or any defined term (as it is used therein), will be effective as to any Purchaser unless consented to by
such Purchaser in writing, (b) (i) with the written consent of MetLife (and without the consent of any other holder of Notes), the provisions of Section 1 or 2 may be amended or waived (except insofar as any such amendment or waiver
would affect any rights or obligations with respect to the purchase and sale of Notes which shall have become Accepted Notes prior to such amendment or waiver), and (ii) with the written consent of all of the Purchasers which shall have become
obligated to purchase Accepted Notes of any Series (and not without the written consent of all such Purchasers), any of the provisions of Sections 2.2 and 4 may be amended or waived insofar as such amendment or waiver would affect only rights or
obligations with respect to the purchase and sale of the Accepted Notes of such Series or the terms and provisions of such Accepted Notes and (c) no such 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 12 relating to acceleration or rescission, change the amount or time of any prepayment or payment of principal of, or reduce the rate or change the time of payment
or method of computation of interest or of the Make-Whole Amount 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
Section 8, 11(a), 11(b), 12, 17 or 20. 
 17.2. Solicitation of Holders of Notes. 

(a) Solicitation. The Company will provide each holder of the Notes (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 or of the Notes, unless 

  
 45 









 
such proposed amendment, waiver or consent relates only to a specific Series of Accepted Notes which have not yet been purchased, in which case such information will only be required to be
delivered to the Purchasers which shall have become obligated to purchase Accepted Notes of such Series. The Company will deliver executed or true and correct copies of each amendment, waiver or consent effected pursuant to the provisions of this
Section 17 to each holder of outstanding Notes promptly following the date on which it is executed and delivered by, or receives the consent or approval of, the requisite holders of Notes. 

(b) Payment. The Company 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 or provide other credit support, to any holder of Notes as consideration for or as an inducement to the entering into by any holder of Notes of any waiver or
amendment of any of the terms and provisions hereof or of any Note unless such remuneration is concurrently paid, or security is concurrently granted or other credit support concurrently provided, on the same terms, ratably to each holder of Notes
then outstanding even if such holder did not consent to such waiver or amendment. 
 17.3. Binding Effect, Etc.

 Any amendment or waiver consented to as provided in this Section 17 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. As used herein, the term “this Agreement” and references thereto shall mean this Agreement as it may from time to time be amended or supplemented. 

17.4. 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 shall be deemed not to be outstanding.

	19.	REPRODUCTION OF DOCUMENTS. 


This Agreement and all documents relating thereto, including, without limitation, (a) consents, waivers and modifications that may
hereafter be executed, (b) documents received by any Purchaser at any Closing (except the Notes themselves), and (c) financial statements, certificates and other information previously or hereafter furnished to any Purchaser, may be
reproduced by such Purchaser by any photographic, photostatic, electronic, digital or other similar process and such Purchaser may destroy any original document so reproduced. The Company agrees and stipulates that, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, any such reproduction shall be admissible in evidence as the original itself in any judicial or administrative 

  
 47 









 
proceeding (whether or not the original is in existence and whether or not such reproduction was made by such Purchaser in the regular course of business) and any enlargement, facsimile or
further reproduction of such reproduction shall likewise be admissible in evidence. This Section 19 shall not prohibit the Company or any other holder of Notes from contesting any such reproduction to the same extent that it could contest the
original, or from introducing evidence to demonstrate the inaccuracy of any such reproduction. 
  

	20.	CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. 


For the purposes of this Section 20, “Confidential Information” means information delivered to any Purchaser by or
on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary in connection with the transactions contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement (or any related document, certificate or agreement) that is proprietary or confidential in nature and that was
clearly marked or labeled or otherwise adequately identified when received by such Purchaser 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 such Purchaser prior to the time of such disclosure, (b) subsequently becomes publicly known through no act or omission by such Purchaser or any person acting on such Purchaser’s behalf, (c) otherwise becomes
known to such Purchaser other than through disclosure by the Company or any Subsidiary or (d) constitutes financial statements delivered to such Purchaser under Section 7.1 that are otherwise publicly available. Each Purchaser will
maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information in accordance with procedures adopted by such Purchaser in good faith to protect confidential information of third parties delivered to such Purchaser, provided that such Purchaser may
deliver or disclose Confidential Information to (i) its directors, trustees, officers, employees, agents, attorneys and affiliates (to the extent such disclosure reasonably relates to the administration of the investment represented by its
Notes), (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 20, (iii) any other holder of any Note,
(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 20), (v) any Person from which it offers to purchase any security of the Company (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by the provisions of this
Section 20), (vi) any federal or state regulatory authority having jurisdiction over such Purchaser, (vii) the NAIC or the SVO or, in each case, any similar organization, or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access
to information about such Purchaser’s investment portfolio, or (viii) any other Person to which such delivery or disclosure may be necessary or appropriate (w) to effect compliance with any law, rule, regulation or order applicable to
such Purchaser, (x) in response to any subpoena or other legal process, (y) in connection with any litigation to which such Purchaser is a party or (z) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to the extent such
Purchaser 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 such Purchaser’s Notes and this Agreement. Each holder of a Note, 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 20 as though it were a party to this Agreement. On reasonable request by the Company in connection with the delivery to any
holder of a Note 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 20. 

  
 48 










	21.	SUBSTITUTION OF PURCHASER. 


Each Purchaser shall have the right to substitute any one of its Affiliates as the purchaser of the Notes that it has agreed to purchase
hereunder, by written notice to the Company, which notice shall be signed by both such 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 6. Upon receipt of such notice, any reference to such Purchaser in this Agreement (other than in this Section 21), 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 21), 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. 
  

	22.	MISCELLANEOUS. 

 22.1.
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, without limitation, any subsequent holder of a Note) whether so expressed or not. 

22.2. Payments Due on Non-Business Days. 
 Anything in this Agreement or the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding (but without limiting the requirement in Section 8.4 that notice of any optional prepayment specify a Business Day as the date
fixed for such prepayment), any payment of principal of or Make-Whole Amount 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; provided that, if the maturity date of any Note is a date other than a Business Day, the payment otherwise due on such maturity date shall be made on the next succeeding
Business Day and shall include the additional days elapsed in the computation of interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day. 
 22.3. Accounting Terms and Covenant Calculations. 

(a) 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, all computations made pursuant to this Agreement shall be made in accordance with GAAP, and all financial statements shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP.


  
 49 









 (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, for purposes of
determining compliance with the covenants in this Agreement, any election by the Company or any Subsidiary to measure any portion of a non-derivative financial liability at fair value (as permitted by IAS 39 or any similar accounting standard),
other than to reflect any hedging of such non-derivative financial liability (including both interest rate and foreign currency hedges), shall be disregarded and such determination shall be made as if such election had not been made. 

(c) As used in this Agreement, accounting terms relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries not defined in Schedule
B, and accounting terms partly defined in Schedule B, but only to the extent not so defined, shall have the respective meanings given to them under GAAP. If at any time any change in GAAP or in the manner in which the Company shall be
required or permitted to disclose its financial results in its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (i.e., a change which is inconsistent with the manner disclosed by the Company in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
ended December 26, 2009) would affect the computation of any financial ratio or requirement set forth in this Agreement, and either the Company or the Required Holders shall so request, the holders of Notes and the Company shall negotiate in
good faith to amend such ratio or requirement to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change (subject to the approval of the Required Holders); provided that, until so amended, (i) such ratio or requirement shall
continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP and as calculated consistent with the manner disclosed by the Company in its Annual Report on Form 10- K for the fiscal year ended December 26, 2009 prior to such change therein and (ii) the
Company shall provide to the holders of Notes financial statements and other documents required under this Agreement or as reasonably requested hereunder setting forth a reconciliation between calculations of such ratio or requirement made before
and after giving effect to such change. 
 (d) Any financial ratios required to be maintained by the Company
pursuant to this Agreement shall be calculated by dividing the appropriate component by the other component, carrying the result to one place more than the number of places by which such ratio is expressed herein and rounding the result up or down
to the nearest number (with a rounding-up if there is no nearest number). 
 22.4. 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 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. 
 22.5. 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 

  
 50 









 
any one covenant shall not (absent such an express contrary provision) be deemed to excuse compliance with any other covenant. Where any provision herein refers to action to be taken by any
Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such Person. 
 For the avoidance of doubt, all Schedules and Exhibits attached to this Agreement shall be deemed to be a part hereof. 
 22.6. 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. 
 22.7. 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. 
 22.8. 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) Nothing in this Section 22.8 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. 
 (c) 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.

 SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE 

THIS SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE, dated as of [—], 20[—] (this “Guarantee Agreement”), is made by [—], a [—]7 (the
 “Guarantor”) in favor of the Purchasers (as defined below) and the other holders from time to time of the Notes (as defined below). The Purchasers and such other holders are herein collectively called the “holders”
and individually a “holder.” 
 PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS: 

I. Henry Schein, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), has entered into a Master Note Purchase Agreement dated
as of April 27, 2012 (as amended, modified, supplemented or restated from time to time, the “Agreement”) with Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, MetLife Investment Advisors Company, LLC (together, “MetLife”) and
each MetLife Affiliate which becomes a party thereto from time to time. Capitalized terms used herein have the meanings specified in the Agreement unless otherwise defined herein. 

II. The Company has authorized the issuance, pursuant to the Agreement, of its senior promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount
of $[        ],000,000 (the “Shelf Notes”). The foregoing Shelf Notes that may from time to time be issued pursuant to the Agreement (including any notes issued in substitution therefor) are
herein collectively called the “Notes” and individually a “Note”. 
 III. Pursuant to the
Agreement, the Company is required or has chosen to cause the Guarantor to deliver this Guarantee Agreement to the holders. 

IV. The Guarantor has received and will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the
Agreement. The [Board of Directors] of the Guarantor has determined that the incurrence of such obligations is in the best interests of the Guarantor. 
 NOW THEREFORE, in compliance with the Agreement, and in consideration of, the execution and delivery of the Agreement and the purchase of the Notes by each of the Purchasers,
the Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees with, and represents and warrants to each of the holders as follows: 
 1. GUARANTEE; INDEMNITY.

 1.1 GUARANTEE. The Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to each holder, the
due and punctual payment in full of (a) the principal of, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest on (including, without limitation, interest accruing after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy, or the commencement of any insolvency,
reorganization or like proceeding, whether or not a claim for post-filing or 

  
  

	7	 Insert appropriate form of entity (e.g. corporation, limited liability company, etc.).





  
 1 








 
post-petition interest is allowed in such proceeding), and any other amounts due under, the Notes when and as the same shall become due and payable (whether at stated maturity or by required or
optional prepayment or by acceleration or otherwise) and (b) any other sums which may become due under the terms and provisions of the Notes, the Agreement or any other instrument referred to therein (all such obligations described in clauses
(a) and (b) above are herein called the “Guaranteed Obligations”). The guarantee in the preceding sentence is an absolute, present and continuing guarantee of payment and not of collectability and is in no way conditional
or contingent upon any attempt to collect from the Company or any other guarantor of the Notes or upon any other action, occurrence or circumstance whatsoever. In the event that the Company shall fail so to pay any of such Guaranteed Obligations,
the Guarantor agrees to pay the same when due to the holders entitled thereto, without demand, presentment, protest or notice of any kind, in lawful money of the United States of America, pursuant to the requirements for payment specified in the
Notes and the Agreement. Each default in payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall give rise to a separate cause of action hereunder and separate suits may be brought hereunder as each cause of action arises. The Guarantor agrees that the
Notes issued in connection with the Agreement may (but need not) make reference to this Guarantee Agreement. 
 The Guarantor
agrees to pay and to indemnify and save each holder harmless from and against any damage, loss, cost or expense (including attorneys’ fees) which such holder may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (x) any
breach by the Guarantor or by the Company of any warranty, covenant, term or condition in, or the occurrence of any default under, this Guarantee Agreement, the Notes, the Agreement or any other instrument referred to therein, together with all
expenses resulting from the compromise or defense of any claims or liabilities arising as a result of any such breach or default, (y) any legal action commenced to challenge the validity or enforceability of this Guarantee Agreement, the Notes,
the Agreement or any other instrument referred to therein and (z) enforcing or defending (or determining whether or how to enforce or defend) the provisions of this Guarantee Agreement. 

The Guarantor hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Guarantor’s liability hereunder is joint and several with any other Person(s)
who may guarantee the obligations and Indebtedness under and in respect of the Notes and the Agreement. 
 Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions or any other provision of this Guarantee Agreement, the holders (by their acceptance of any Note) and the Guarantor hereby agree that if at any time the Guaranteed Obligations exceed the Maximum Guaranteed Amount determined as
of such time with regard to the Guarantor, then this Guarantee Agreement shall be automatically amended to reduce the Guaranteed Obligations to the Maximum Guaranteed Amount. Such amendment shall not require the written consent of the Guarantor or
any holder and shall be deemed to have been automatically consented to by the Guarantor and each holder. The Guarantor agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may at any time exceed the Maximum Guaranteed Amount without affecting or impairing the
obligation of the Guarantor. “Maximum Guaranteed Amount” means as of the date of determination with respect to the Guarantor, the lesser of (a) the amount of 

  
 2 








 
the Guaranteed Obligations outstanding on such date and (b) the maximum amount that would not render the Guarantor’s liability under this Guarantee Agreement subject to avoidance under
Section 548 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (or any successor provision) or any comparable provision of applicable state law. 
 1.2 INDEMNITY. The Guarantor hereby further agrees that if, for any reason, any amount claimed by a holder of the Notes under this Guarantee Agreement is not recoverable on the basis
of a guarantee, it will be liable as a principal debtor and primary obligor to indemnify that holder of the Notes against any cost, loss or liability it incurs as a result of the Company not paying any amount expressed to be payable by it under the
Notes, the Agreement or otherwise on the date when it is expressed to be due. The amount payable by the Guarantor under this Section 1.2 will not exceed the amount it would have had to pay under Section 1.1 if the amount claimed had been
recoverable on the basis of a guarantee. 
 2. OBLIGATIONS ABSOLUTE. 

The obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall be primary, absolute, irrevocable and unconditional, irrespective of the validity or
enforceability of the Notes, the Agreement or any other instrument referred to therein, shall not be subject to any counterclaim, setoff, deduction or defense based upon any claim the Guarantor may have against the Company or any holder or
otherwise, and shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be released, discharged or in any way affected by, any circumstance or condition whatsoever (whether or not the Guarantor shall have any knowledge or notice
thereof), including, without limitation: (a) any amendment to, modification of, supplement to or restatement of the Notes, the Agreement or any other instrument referred to therein (it being agreed that the obligations of the Guarantor
hereunder shall apply to the Notes, the Agreement or any such other instrument as so amended, modified, supplemented or restated) or any assignment or transfer of any thereof or of any interest therein, or any furnishing, acceptance or release of
any security for the Notes; (b) any waiver, consent, extension, indulgence or other action or inaction under or in respect of the Notes, the Agreement or any other instrument referred to therein; (c) any bankruptcy, insolvency,
arrangement, reorganization, readjustment, composition, liquidation or similar proceeding with respect to the Company or its property; (d) any merger, amalgamation or consolidation of the Guarantor or of the Company into or with any other
Person or any sale, lease or transfer of any or all of the assets of the Guarantor or of the Company to any Person; (e) any failure on the part of the Company for any reason to comply with or perform any of the terms of any other agreement with
the Guarantor; (f) any failure on the part of any holder to obtain, maintain, register or otherwise perfect any security; or (g) any other event or circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of
a guarantor (whether or not similar to the foregoing), and in any event however material or prejudicial it may be to the Guarantor or to any subrogation, contribution or reimbursement rights the Guarantor may otherwise have. The Guarantor covenants
that its obligations hereunder will not be discharged except by indefeasible payment in full in cash of all of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other obligations hereunder. 

  
 3 








 3. WAIVER. 
 The Guarantor unconditionally waives to the fullest extent permitted by law, (a) notice of acceptance hereof, of any action taken or omitted in reliance hereon and of any default by the Company in
the payment of any amounts due under the Notes, the Agreement or any other instrument referred to therein, and of any of the matters referred to in Section 2 hereof, (b) all notices which may be required by statute, rule of law or
otherwise to preserve any of the rights of any holder against the Guarantor, including, without limitation, presentment to or demand for payment from the Company or the Guarantor with respect to any Note, notice to the Company or to the Guarantor of
default or protest for nonpayment or dishonor and the filing of claims with a court in the event of the bankruptcy of the Company, (c) any right to require any holder to enforce, assert or exercise any right, power or remedy including, without
limitation, any right, power or remedy conferred in the Agreement or the Notes, (d) any requirement for diligence on the part of any holder and (e) any other act or omission or thing or delay in doing any other act or thing which might in
any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Guarantor or otherwise operate as a discharge of the Guarantor or in any manner lessen the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder. 
 4. OBLIGATIONS UNIMPAIRED. 
 The Guarantor authorizes the holders, without
notice or demand to the Guarantor and without affecting its obligations hereunder, from time to time: (a) to renew, compromise, extend, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment of, all or any part of the Notes, the Agreement or any
other instrument referred to therein; (b) to change any of the representations, covenants, events of default or any other terms or conditions of or pertaining to the Notes, the Agreement or any other instrument referred to therein, including,
without limitation, decreases or increases in amounts of principal, rates of interest, the Make-Whole Amount or any other obligation; (c) to take and hold security for the payment of the Notes, the Agreement or any other instrument referred to
therein, for the performance of this Guarantee Agreement or otherwise for the Indebtedness guaranteed hereby and to exchange, enforce, waive, subordinate and release any such security; (d) to apply any such security and to direct the order or
manner of sale thereof as the holders in their sole discretion may determine; (e) to obtain additional or substitute endorsers or guarantors; (f) to exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Company and others; and
(g) to apply any sums, by whomsoever paid or however realized, to the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other obligations owed hereunder. The holders shall have no obligation to proceed against any additional or substitute endorsers
or guarantors or to pursue or exhaust any security provided by the Company, the Guarantor or any other Person or to pursue any other remedy available to the holders. 
 If an event permitting the acceleration of the maturity of the principal amount of any Notes shall exist and such acceleration shall at such time be prevented or the right of any holder to receive any
payment on account of the Guaranteed Obligations shall at such 

  
 4 








 
time be delayed or otherwise affected by reason of the pendency against the Company, the Guarantor or any other guarantors of a case or proceeding under a bankruptcy or insolvency law, the
Guarantor agrees that, for purposes of this Guarantee Agreement and its obligations hereunder, the maturity of such principal amount shall be deemed to have been accelerated with the same effect as if the holder thereof had accelerated the same in
accordance with the terms of the Agreement, and the Guarantor shall forthwith pay such accelerated Guaranteed Obligations. 
 5. SUBROGATION
AND SUBORDINATION. 
 (a) The Guarantor will not exercise any rights which it may have acquired by way of subrogation under
this Guarantee Agreement, by any payment made hereunder or otherwise, or accept any payment on account of such subrogation rights, or any rights of reimbursement, contribution or indemnity or any rights or recourse to any security for the Notes or
this Guarantee Agreement unless and until all of the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash. 

(b) The Guarantor hereby subordinates the payment of all Indebtedness and other obligations of the Company or any other guarantor of the
Guaranteed Obligations owing to the Guarantor, whether now existing or hereafter arising, including, without limitation, all rights and claims described in clause (a) of this Section 5, to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all of
the Guaranteed Obligations. If the Required Holders so request, any such Indebtedness or other obligations shall be enforced and performance received by the Guarantor as trustee for the holders and the proceeds thereof shall be paid over to the
holders promptly, in the form received (together with any necessary endorsements) to be applied to the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, as may be directed by the Required Holders, but without reducing or affecting in any manner
the liability of the Guarantor under this Guarantee Agreement. 
 (c) If any amount or other payment is made to or accepted by
the Guarantor in violation of any of the preceding clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 5, such amount shall be deemed to have been paid to the Guarantor for the benefit of, and held in trust for the benefit of, the holders and shall
be paid over to the holders promptly, in the form received (together with any necessary endorsements) to be applied to the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, as may be directed by the Required Holders, but without reducing or
affecting in any manner the liability of the Guarantor under this Guarantee Agreement. 
 (d) The Guarantor acknowledges that it
will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Agreement and that its agreements set forth in this Guarantee Agreement (including this Section 5) are knowingly made in contemplation of such
benefits. 
 6. REINSTATEMENT OF GUARANTEE. 
 This Guarantee Agreement shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if and to the extent at any time payment, in whole or in part, of any of the


  
 5 








 
sums due to any holder on account of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by a holder upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or
reorganization of the Company or any other guarantors, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a custodian, receiver, trustee or other officer with similar powers with respect to the Company or any other guarantors or any part of its or their

 11.2 SOLICITATION OF HOLDERS
OF NOTES. 
 (a) Solicitation. The Guarantor will provide each
holder of the Notes (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 11.2
to each holder promptly following the date on which it is executed and delivered by, or receives the consent or approval of, the requisite holders of 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
or provide other credit support, to any holder as consideration for or as an inducement to the entering into by any holder of any waiver or amendment of any of the terms and provisions hereof unless such remuneration is concurrently paid, or
security is concurrently granted or other credit support concurrently provided, on the same terms, ratably to each holder even if such holder did not consent to such waiver or amendment. 

11.3 BINDING EFFECT. Any amendment or waiver consented to as provided in this Section 11

any obligation, covenant or agreement not expressly amended or waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing between the Guarantor and the holder nor any delay in exercising any rights hereunder or under any Note shall operate
as a waiver of any rights of any holder. As used herein, the term “this Guarantee Agreement” and references thereto shall mean this Guarantee Agreement as it may be amended, modified, supplemented or restated from time to time.

 11.4 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 Guarantee Agreement, or have

forth in such holder’s Confirmation of Acceptance, or such other address as such holder shall have specified to the Guarantor in writing. 

13. MISCELLANEOUS. 

13.1 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. All covenants and other agreements contained in this
Guarantee Agreement by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns whether so expressed or not. 
 13.2 SEVERABILITY. Any provision of this Guarantee Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of
such 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. 
 13.3 CONSTRUCTION. 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 express contrary provision) be deemed to excuse compliance with any
other covenant. Whether any provision herein refers to action to be taken by any Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such Person.

 The section and subsection headings in this Guarantee Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall neither be
deemed to be a part of this Guarantee Agreement nor modify, define, expand or limit any of the terms or provisions hereof. All references herein to numbered sections, unless otherwise indicated, are to sections of this Guarantee Agreement. Words and
definitions in the singular shall be read and construed as though in the plural and vice versa, and words in the masculine, neuter or feminine gender shall be read and construed as though in either of the other genders where the context so

 13.6 JURISDICTION AND PROCESS;
WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. 
 (a) Each of the Guarantor and each
holder 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 Guarantee
Agreement. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Guarantor and each holder of Notes 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) Each of the Guarantor and each holder consents to process being served
by or on behalf of such Guarantor or any holder, as applicable, in any suit, action or proceeding of the nature referred to in Section 13.6(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 12 or at such other address of which such holder shall then have been notified pursuant to Section 12. Each of the Guarantor and each holder 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. Notices hereunder shall be conclusively presumed received as evidenced by a delivery receipt furnished by the United States Postal Service or any reputable commercial delivery service.

 (c) Nothing in this Section 13.6 shall affect the right of any holder to serve process in any manner permitted by law,
or limit any right that the holders may have to bring proceedings against the Guarantor in the courts of any appropriate jurisdiction or to enforce in any lawful manner a judgment obtained in one jurisdiction in any other jurisdiction. 

(d) THE GUARANTOR AND THE HOLDERS HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION BROUGHT ON OR WITH RESPECT TO THIS GUARANTEE AGREEMENT OR
OTHER DOCUMENT EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH. 
 13.7 REPRODUCTION OF
DOCUMENTS; EXECUTION. This Guarantee Agreement may be reproduced by any holder by any photographic, photostatic, electronic, digital, or other similar process and such holder may destroy any original document so
reproduced. The Guarantor agrees and stipulates that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any such reproduction shall be admissible in evidence as the original itself in any judicial or administrative proceeding (whether or not the original
is in existence and whether or not such reproduction was made by such holder in the regular 

  
 11 









 
course of business) and any enlargement, facsimile or further reproduction of such reproduction shall likewise be admissible in evidence. This Section 13.7 shall not prohibit the Guarantor
or any other holder of Notes from contesting any such reproduction to the same extent that it could contest the original, or from introducing evidence to demonstrate the inaccuracy of any such reproduction. A facsimile or electronic transmission of
the signature page of the Guarantor shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof and shall be admissible into evidence for all purposes.
