 “Consolidated Cash Flow Available for Fixed Charges” means, with respect to the
Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries, for any period, the sum of, without duplication, the amounts for each such single period of (a) Consolidated Net Income, (b) Consolidated Non-Cash Charges, (c) Consolidated Interest Expense and (d)
Consolidated Income Tax Expense. 
 “Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio” means, with respect to the Partnership and its
Restricted Subsidiaries, the ratio of the aggregate amount of Consolidated Cash Flow Available for Fixed Charges of the Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries for the four full fiscal quarters immediately preceding the date of the transaction
(the “Transaction Date”) giving rise to the need to calculate the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (such four full fiscal quarter period being referred to herein as the “Four Quarter Period”) to the aggregate amount of
Consolidated Fixed Charges of the Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries for the Four Quarter Period. In addition to and without limitation of the foregoing, for purposes of this definition, “Consolidated Cash Flow Available for Fixed
Charges” and “Consolidated Fixed Charges” shall be calculated after giving effect on a pro forma basis for the period of such calculation to, without duplication, (a) the incurrence or repayment of any Indebtedness (other than
revolving credit borrowings) of the Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (and, in the case of any incurrence, the application of the net proceeds thereof) during the period commencing on the first day of the Four Quarter Period to and
including the Transaction Date (the “Reference Period”), including, without limitation, the incurrence of the Indebtedness giving rise to the need to make such calculation (and the application of the net proceeds thereof), as if such
incurrence (and application) occurred on the first day of the Reference Period, and (b) any Asset Sales or Asset Acquisitions (including, without limitation, any Asset Acquisition giving rise to the need to make such calculation as a result of the
Partnership or one of its Restricted Subsidiaries (including any Person who becomes a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of the Asset Acquisition) incurring, assuming or otherwise being liable for Acquired Indebtedness) occurring during the Reference
Period, as if such Asset Sale or Asset Acquisition occurred on the first day of the Reference Period; provided, however, that (i) Consolidated Fixed Charges shall be reduced by amounts attributable to businesses or assets that are so disposed
of or discontinued only to the extent that the obligations giving rise to such Consolidated Fixed Charges would no longer be obligations contributing to the Consolidated Fixed Charges subsequent to the date of determination of the Consolidated Fixed
Charge Coverage Ratio and (ii) Consolidated Cash Flow Available for Fixed Charges generated by an acquired business or asset shall be determined by the actual gross profit (revenues minus cost of goods sold) of such acquired business or asset during
the immediately preceding four full fiscal quarters in the Reference Period minus the pro forma expenses that would have been incurred by the Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the operation of such acquired business or asset during such
period, computed on the basis of personnel expenses for employees retained or to be retained by the Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the operation of the acquired business or asset and non-personnel costs and expenses incurred by the
Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the operation of the Partnership’s business at similarly situated facilities. For purposes of this definition, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to an Asset Sale or Asset Acquisition, the
pro forma calculations shall be made in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Partnership, giving effect to any synergies or cost savings reasonably expected to be achieved as a result of


  
 5 








 
such transaction, whether or not they could then be reflected in pro forma financial statements in accordance with Regulation S-X promulgated under the Securities Act or any other regulation or
policy of the Commission related thereto. Furthermore, in calculating “Consolidated Fixed Charges” for purposes of determining the “Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio”: (i) interest on outstanding Indebtedness (other than
Indebtedness referred to in clause (ii) below) determined on a fluctuating basis as of the last day of the Four Quarter Period and which will continue to be so determined thereafter shall be deemed to have accrued at a fixed rate per annum equal to
the rate of interest on such Indebtedness in effect on such date; (ii) only actual interest payments associated with Indebtedness incurred in accordance with clauses (f) and (g) of the definition of Permitted Indebtedness, and all Permitted
Refinancing Indebtedness thereof, during the Four Quarter Period shall be included in such calculation; and (iii) if interest on any Indebtedness actually incurred on such date may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of
a prime or similar rate, a eurocurrency interbank offered rate, or other rates, then the interest rate in effect on the last day of the Four Quarter Period will be deemed to have been in effect during such period. 

“Consolidated Fixed Charges” means, with respect to the Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries for any period, the sum of,
without duplication: (a) the amounts for such period of Consolidated Interest Expense and (b) the aggregate amount of dividends and other distributions paid or accrued during such period in respect of Preferred Stock and Redeemable Capital Stock of
the Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. 
 “Consolidated Income Tax Expense” means, with respect
to the Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries for any period, the provision for federal, state, local and foreign income taxes of the Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries for such period as determined on a consolidated basis in

 Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Indenture

execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than his or her individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of his or her authority. The

The ownership of Securities shall be proved by the Security Register. 

Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act of the Holder of any Security shall bind every future
Holder of the same Security and the Holder of every Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the Issuers in
reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Security. 
 The Issuers may, in the circumstances permitted by
the Trust Indenture Act, set any day as the record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities of any series entitled to give or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other
action provided or permitted by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders of Securities of such series. With regard to any record date set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on such
record date (or their duly appointed agents), and only such Persons, shall be entitled to give or take the relevant action, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date. With regard to any action that may be given or taken
hereunder only by Holders of a requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of any series (or their duly appointed agents) and for which a record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Issuers may, at their option, set an expiration
date after which no such action purported to be given or taken by any Holder shall be effective hereunder unless given or taken on or prior to such expiration date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series
on such record date (or their duly appointed agents). On or prior to any expiration date set pursuant to this paragraph, the Issuers may, on one or more occasions at their option, extend such date to any later date. Nothing in this
paragraph shall prevent any Holder (or any duly appointed agent thereof) from giving or taking, after any such expiration date, any action identical to, or, at any time, contrary to or different from, the action or purported action to which such
expiration date relates, in which event the Issuers may set a record date in respect thereof pursuant to this paragraph. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken at any time by the Holders (or their
duly appointed agents) of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on the date such action is so taken. Notwithstanding the foregoing or the Trust Indenture Act, the Issuers shall not set a record date
for, and the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply with respect to, any notice, declaration or direction referred to in the next paragraph. 

The Trustee may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities of any series entitled to
join in the giving or making of (i) any Notice of Default, (ii) any declaration of acceleration referred to in Section 5.02, if an Event of Default with respect to Securities of such series has occurred and is continuing and the Trustee shall not
have given such a declaration to the Issuers, (iii) any request to institute proceedings referred to in Section 5.07 or (iv) any direction referred to in Section 5.05, in each case with respect to Securities of such series. Promptly after any
record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the 

  
 27 








 
Trustee shall notify the Issuers and the Holders of Outstanding Securities of such series of any such record date so fixed and the proposed action. The Holders of Outstanding Securities of
such series on such record date (or their duly appointed agents), and only such Persons, shall be entitled to join in such notice, declaration or direction, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that,
unless such notice, declaration or direction shall have become effective by virtue of Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date (or their duly appointed agents) having joined therein on or
prior to the 90th day after such record date, such notice, declaration or direction shall automatically and without any action by any Person be cancelled and of no further effect. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent a Holder
(or a duly appointed agent thereof) from giving, before or after the expiration of such 90-day period, a notice, declaration or direction contrary to or different from, or, after the expiration of such period, identical to, the notice, declaration
or direction to which such record date relates, in which event a new record date in respect thereof shall be set pursuant to this paragraph. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any notice, declaration or direction
of the type referred to in this paragraph given at any time to the Trustee and the Issuers by Holders (or their duly appointed agents) of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on the date such notice,
declaration or direction is so given. 
 Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled hereunder to give or take any action hereunder
with regard to any particular Security may do so with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such Security or by one or more duly appointed agents each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any different
part of such principal amount.

Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly
provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest date (if any), and not earlier than the earliest date (if


  
 28 








 
any), prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any
particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either
before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance
upon such waiver. 
 In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable
to give such notice by mail, then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder. 

Section 1.07. Conflict with Trust Indenture Act. 

If any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with a provision of the Trust Indenture Act that is required under the Trust Indenture
Act to be a part of and govern this Indenture, the latter provision shall control. If any provision of this Indenture modifies or excludes any provision of the Trust Indenture Act that may be so modified or excluded, the latter provision shall
be deemed to apply to this Indenture as so modified or to be excluded, as the case may be. Wherever this Indenture refers to a provision of the Trust Indenture Act, such provision is incorporated by reference in and made a part of this
Indenture. 
 The following Trust Indenture Act terms used in this Indenture have the following meanings: 

“indenture securities” means the Securities. 

“indenture security holder” means a Holder. 

“indenture to be qualified” means this Indenture. 

“indenture trustee” or “institutional trustee” means the Trustee. 

“obligor on the indenture securities” means the Issuers and any other obligor on the Securities. 

All other Trust Indenture Act terms used in this Indenture that are defined by the Trust Indenture Act, defined by the Trust Indenture Act
referenced to another statute or defined by any rule of the Commission and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings defined to them thereby. 

Section 1.08. Effect of Headings and Table of Contents. 

The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof. 

  
 29

All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Issuers shall bind their respective successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.
All agreements of the Trustee in this Indenture shall bind its successors. 
 Section 1.10. Separability Clause. 

In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Securities shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and

successors hereunder and the Holders, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture. 
 Section 1.12. Governing Law.

 This Indenture and the Securities, and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or relating to this Indenture or the
Securities, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. 
 Section 1.13. Legal Holidays. 

In any case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity of any Security shall not be a Business Day at any Place of
Payment, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or of the Securities (other than a provision of the Securities of any series which specifically states that such provision shall apply in lieu of this Section 1.13)) payment of
interest or principal (and premium, if any) need not be made at such Place of Payment on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day at such Place of Payment with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date
or Redemption Date, or at the Stated Maturity, provided that no interest shall accrue for the intervening period. 
 Section 1.14 No Adverse
Interpretation of Other Agreements. 
 This Indenture may not be used to interpret any other indenture, loan or debt agreement of the
Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries or of any other Person. Any such indenture, loan or debt agreement may not be used to interpret this Indenture.

                     U.S. Dollars on

which shall be the              or              (whether or not a Business Day), as the case may be, next preceding such Interest

the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register]. 
 Reference is hereby made to the

premium or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed herein.

to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Issuers enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization,
moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles. 
 If
such form or terms have been so established, the Trustee shall not be required to authenticate such Securities if the issue of such Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under the
Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. 
 Notwithstanding the provisions
of Section 3.01 and of the preceding paragraph, if all of the Securities of a series are not to be originally issued at one time, it shall not be necessary to deliver the Officer’s Certificate otherwise required pursuant to Section 3.01 or the
Issuers’ Order and Opinion of Counsel otherwise required pursuant to such preceding paragraph at or prior to the time of authentication of each Security of such series if such documents are delivered at or prior to the authentication upon
original issuance of the first Security of such series to be issued. 

  
 40 








 Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. 

No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such
Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee by manual signature, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has
been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Issuers, and the Issuers shall deliver such Security to the
Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 3.09, for all purposes of this Indenture such Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. 

Section 3.04. Temporary Securities. 

Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the Issuers may execute, and upon the Issuers’ Order the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued
and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such Securities may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Securities. 

If temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Issuers will cause definitive Securities of that series to be prepared without
unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Securities of such series, the temporary Securities of such series shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities of such series upon surrender of the temporary Securities of such series
at the office or agency of the Issuers in a Place of Payment for that series, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities of any series, the Issuers shall execute and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor one or more definitive Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor. Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities of any series
shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series and tenor. 
 Section 3.05.
Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange. 
 The Issuers shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee
a register (the register maintained in such office and in any other office or agency of the Issuers in a Place of Payment being herein sometimes collectively referred to as the “Security Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable
regulations as it may prescribe, the Issuers shall provide for the registration of Securities and of transfers of Securities. The Trustee is hereby appointed “Security Registrar” for the purpose of registering Securities and transfers of
Securities as herein provided. 

  
 41 








 Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security of any series at the office or agency
in a Place of Payment for that series, the Issuers shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations
and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor. 
 At the option of the Holder, the Securities of any series may be exchanged for other
Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for
exchange, the Issuers shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. 

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

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

No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of the Securities, but the Issuers or Security Registrar may
require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of the Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 3.04, 9.06 or 11.07 not
involving any transfer. 
 The Issuers shall not be required (1) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange Securities of any series
during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the mailing of a notice of redemption of the Securities of that series selected for redemption under Section 11.03 and ending at the close of business on the day of such
mailing, or (2) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part. 

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, no Global Security may be transferred to, or registered or exchanged for the Securities
registered in the name of, any Person other than the Depositary for such Global Security or any nominee thereof, and no such transfer may be registered, unless (1) such Depositary (A) notifies the Issuers that it is unwilling or unable to continue
as Depositary for such Global Security or (B) has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, (2) the Issuers execute and deliver to the Trustee an Issuers’ Order that such Global Security shall be so transferable,
registrable and exchangeable, and such transfers shall be registrable, (3) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default with respect to the Securities evidenced by such Global Security or (4) there shall exist such other
circumstances, if any, as have been specified for this purpose as contemplated by Section 3.01. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, a Global Security to which the 

  
 42 








 
restriction set forth in the preceding sentence shall have ceased to apply may be transferred only to, and may be registered and exchanged for the Securities registered only in the name or names
of, such Person or Persons as the Depositary for such Global Security shall have directed and no transfer thereof other than such a transfer may be registered. 

Every Security authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a Global Security to which the
restriction set forth in the first sentence of the preceding paragraph shall apply, whether pursuant to this Section 3.05, Section 3.04, 3.06, 9.06 or 11.07 or otherwise, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global
Security. 
 Section 3.06. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. 

If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the Issuers shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange
therefor a new Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 

If there shall be delivered to the Issuers and the Trustee (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any
Security and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Issuers or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide
purchaser, the Issuers shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not
contemporaneously outstanding. 
 In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and
payable, the Issuers in their discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security. 
 Upon the issuance of any new Security
under this Section 3.06, the Issuers may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected
therewith. 
 Every new Security of any series issued pursuant to this Section 3.06 in exchange for any mutilated Security or in lieu of any
destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Issuers, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to
all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities of that series duly issued hereunder. 

The provisions of this Section 3.06 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the
replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities. 

  
 43 








 Section 3.07. Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. 

Except as otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to any series of the Securities, interest on any Security which is
payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Security (or one or more predecessor securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for
such interest. 
 Any interest on any Security of any series which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any
Interest Payment Date (herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Issuers,
at their election in each case, as provided in Clause (1) or (2) below: 
 (1) The Issuers may elect to make payment of any
Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their respective predecessor securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be
fixed in the following manner. The Issuers shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security of such series and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Issuers shall
deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment,
such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this Clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which
shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuers
of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Issuers, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder of
the Securities of such series at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having
been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their respective predecessor securities) are registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be
payable pursuant to the following Clause (2). 
 (2) The Issuers may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on the
Securities of any series in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the
Issuers to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this Clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee. 

Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.07, each Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in
exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security. 

  
 44 








 Section 3.08. Persons Deemed Owners. 

Prior to due presentment of a Security for registration of transfer, the Issuers, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuers or the Trustee may
treat the Person in whose name such Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and any premium and (subject to Section 3.07) any interest on such Security and for all other purposes
whatsoever, whether or not such Security be overdue, and neither the Issuers, the Trustee nor any agent of the Issuers or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 

Section 3.09. Cancellation. 
 All of the
Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange or for credit against any sinking fund payment shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and shall be promptly
cancelled by it. The Issuers may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Issuers may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the Trustee
(or to any other Person for delivery to the Trustee) for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated hereunder which the Issuers have not issued and sold, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No
Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled as provided in this Section 3.09, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Securities held by the Trustee shall be disposed of by the
Trustee in its customary manner. 
 Section 3.10. Computation of Interest. 

Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for the Securities of any series, interest on the Securities of each series
shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 
 Section 3.11. CUSIP Numbers. 

The Issuers in issuing the Securities may use CUSIP numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use CUSIP numbers in
notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice of a redemption
and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Issuers will promptly notify the Trustee of any
changes in the CUSIP numbers. 

  
 45 








 ARTICLE IV 

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE 
 Section
4.01. Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. 
 This Indenture shall upon the Issuers’ Request cease to be of further effect with
respect to a series of Securities (except as to any surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of the Securities herein expressly provided for), and the Trustee, at the expense of the Issuers, shall execute proper instruments
acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to such series of Securities, when: 
 (1) either:

 (A) all of the Securities of such series theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (i) the Securities of such
series which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 3.06 and (ii) the Securities of such series for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust
by the Issuers and thereafter repaid to the Issuers or discharged from such trust) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or 

(B) all Securities of such series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation 

(i) have become due and payable, or 

(ii) will become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year, or 

(iii) are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice
of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Issuers, 
 and the Issuers, in the case of clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above, have
deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for the purpose an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on the Securities of such series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for
cancellation, for principal and any premium and interest to the date of such deposit (in the case of Securities of such series which have become due and payable) or to the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be; 

(2) the Issuers have paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Issuers with respect to the Securities
of such series; and 
 (3) the Issuers have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of
Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to the Securities of such series have been complied with. 

  
 46 








 Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to a series of
Securities, the obligations of the Issuers to the Trustee under Section 6.06, and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to clause (1)(B) of this Section 4.01, the obligations of the Trustee under Section 4.02 shall survive
such satisfaction and discharge with respect to such series of Securities. 
 Section 4.02. Application of Trust Money. 

All money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.01 in respect of a series of Securities shall be held in trust and applied by it,
in accordance with the provisions of the Securities of such series and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuers acting as their own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons
entitled thereto, of the principal and any premium and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee. 

ARTICLE V 
 REMEDIES

 Section 5.01. Events of Default. 

“Event of Default,” wherever used herein with respect to the Securities of any series, means any one of the following events
(whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or
governmental body): 
 (1) Default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any Security of that series
at its Stated Maturity; or 
 (2) Default in the payment of any interest upon any Security of that series when it becomes
due and payable, and continuance of such Default for a period of 30 days; or 
 (3) Default in the deposit of any sinking
fund payment, when and as due by the terms of a Security of that series, and continuance of such Default for a period of 30 days; or 

(4) either of the Issuers fails to perform or observe any other term, covenant or agreement contained in the applicable series
of Securities or this Indenture (other than a Default specified in clause (1), (2) or (3) above or clause (5) below) and such Default continues for a period of 45 days after written notice of such Default requiring the Issuers to remedy the same
shall have been given (x) to the Issuers by the Trustee or (y) to the Issuers and the Trustee by Holders of 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of that series then Outstanding; 

(5) the continuance of a default as a result of the failure by the Partnership for whatever reason to comply with Section 7.04
for a period of 105 days after written notice of such default requiring the Issuers to remedy the same shall have been given (x) to the Issuers by the Trustee or (y) to the Issuers and the Trustee by holders of 25% of the aggregate principal amount
of the Securities then Outstanding; 

  
 47 








 (6) a default occurs or defaults occur under one or more agreements, instruments,
mortgages, bonds, debentures or other evidences of Indebtedness under which the Partnership or any Restricted Subsidiary then has outstanding Indebtedness, which default (a) is caused by failure to pay (x) principal with respect to Indebtedness of a
Restricted Subsidiary at its Stated Maturity or within the applicable grace period, if any, provided with respect to such Indebtedness or (y) principal, premium or interest with respect to Indebtedness of the Partnership within the applicable grace
period, if any, provided in such Indebtedness (collectively, a “Payment Default”) or (b) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its Stated Maturity and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness,
together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $75 million or more; or 

(7) a final judgment or judgments (which is or are non-appealable and non-reviewable or which has or have not been stayed
pending appeal or review or as to which all rights to appeal or review have expired or been exhausted) shall be rendered against the Partnership, any Restricted Subsidiary, the General Partner or any Significant Subsidiary for the payment of money
in excess of $75 million in the aggregate and which judgment or judgments shall not be covered by insurance or discharged or execution thereon stayed pending appeal or review within 60 days after entry of such judgment, or, in the event of such a
stay, such judgment shall not be discharged within 30 days after such stay expires; or 
 (8) the Partnership, Finance Corp.
or any of their respective Significant Subsidiaries pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law: 
 (a)
commences a voluntary case, 
 (b) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case, 

(c) consents to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its property, 

(d) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or 

(e) admits in writing its inability to pay debts as the same become due; or 

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

(a) is for relief against the Partnership, Finance Corp. or any of their respective Significant Subsidiaries in an
involuntary case, 
 (b) appoints a Custodian of the Partnership, Finance Corp. or any of their respective Significant
Subsidiaries or for all or substantially all of their property, or 

  
 48 








 (c) orders the liquidation of the Partnership, Finance Corp. or any of their
respective Significant Subsidiaries, and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 days; or 
 (10) any
other Event of Default provided with respect to Securities of that series. 
 The notice under clause (4) must specify the Default, demand
that it be remedied and state that the notice is a “Notice of Default.” 
 Section 5.02. Acceleration of Stated Maturity, Rescission and
Annulment. 
 If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clauses (8) and (9) of Section 5.01) with respect to
Securities of any series at the time Outstanding occurs and is continuing, the Trustee by notice to the Issuers, or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then Outstanding Securities of that series by written notice to the Issuers
and the Trustee, may declare the unpaid principal (or, if any of the Securities of that series are Original Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount of such Securities as may be specified in the terms thereof) of all of the
Securities of that series, and any accrued interest on such Securities be due and payable. Upon such declaration the principal and interest shall be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default specified in clause (8) or (9) of Section 5.01
occurs, such an amount shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. If any Event of Default occurs because the Issuers or those acting on the Issuers’
behalf willfully intended to avoid payment of the premium that the Issuers would have to pay if the Issuers then elected to redeem the Securities of a Series under Article XI of this Indenture, then an equivalent premium shall also become and be
immediately due and payable to the extent permitted by law upon the acceleration of the Securities of such series. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then Outstanding Securities of any series by written notice to the Trustee may
rescind an acceleration and its consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default with respect to the Securities of that series (except nonpayment of principal or interest that has
become due solely because of the acceleration) have been cured or waived. 
 Section 5.03. Other Remedies. 

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy (under this Indenture or otherwise) to collect
the payment of principal or interest on the Securities of that series or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Securities of that series, or this Indenture. 

  
 49 








 The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Securities of that
series or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder of the Securities of that series in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy
or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law. 
 Section 5.04.
Waiver of Past Defaults. 
 Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of any series then Outstanding by notice to the
Trustee may waive an existing Default or Event of Default with respect to that series and its consequences, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, any Securities of that
series held by a non-consenting Holder. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend
to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
 Section 5.05. Control by Majority. 

The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of any series then Outstanding may direct the time, method and place of
conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee with respect to such series, or exercising any trust or power conferred on it. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture
that the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders of the Securities of that series, or that may involve the Trustee in personal liability. 

Section 5.06. Limitation on Suits. 
 A
Holder of the Securities of any series may pursue a remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Securities only if: 
 (1)
the Holder gives to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default; 
 (2) the Holders of at least 25% in
principal amount of the Securities of that series then Outstanding make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy; 

(3) such Holder or Holders offer and, if requested, provide to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any
loss, liability or expense; 
 (4) the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request
and the offer and, if requested, the provision of indemnity; and 
 (5) during such 60-day period the Holders of a majority
in principal amount of the Securities of that series then Outstanding do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with the request. 

  
 50 








 A Holder of the Securities of any series may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of
another Holder of the Securities of that series or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder of the Securities of that series. 
 Section
5.07. Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Security shall
have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and any premium and (subject to Section 3.07) interest on such Security on the respective Stated Maturity expressed in such Security (or, in the case of
redemption, on the Redemption Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder. 

Section 5.08. Collection Suit by Trustee. 

If an Event of Default specified in Section 5.01(1) or (2) with respect to any series of the Securities occurs and is continuing, the Trustee
is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuers for the whole amount of principal and interest remaining unpaid on the Securities of that series and interest on overdue principal and, to the
extent lawful, interest and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel. 

Section 5.09. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 

The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the
claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders of the Securities allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuers
(or any other obligor upon the Securities), their creditors or their property and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any custodian in any such
judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder of the Securities to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders of the Securities, to pay to the
Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.06 hereof. To the extent that the payment of any
such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.06 hereof out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the
same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties which the Holders of the Securities may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or
under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder of the Securities any plan of reorganization,
arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder of the Securities in any such proceeding. 

  
 51 








 Section 5.10. Priorities. 

If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article, it shall pay out the money in the following order: 

First: to the Trustee, its agents and attorneys for amounts due under Section 6.06, including payment of all compensation, expense and
liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and the costs and expenses of collection; 
 Second: To the payment of
the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of and any premium and interest on the Securities in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the
amounts due and payable on such Securities for principal and any premium and interest, respectively; and 
 Third: to the Issuers or
to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct. 
 The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to
Holders of Securities. 
 Section 5.11. Undertaking for Costs. 

In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted
by it as a Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’
fees, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 5.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section
5.07, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of any series of Securities then Outstanding. 
 ARTICLE VI 

THE TRUSTEE 
 The Trustee
hereby accepts the trust imposed upon it by this Indenture and covenants and agrees to perform the same, as herein expressed. 
 Section 6.01. Duties of
Trustee. 
 (1) If an Event of Default with respect to a series of Securities has occurred and is continuing, the
Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs. 

(2) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default with respect to a series of Securities: 

  
 52 









	 	(a)	The duties of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture and the Trustee need perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no others, and no
implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. 

  

	 	(b)	In the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee
and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture. However, the Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture.

subject to paragraphs (1), (2) and (3) of this Section 6.01.

(6) The Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with
the Issuers. Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

the proper Person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document.

Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such Officer’s
Certificate or Opinion of Counsel. The Trustee may consult with counsel and the written advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability, in respect of any action taken, suffered
or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon. 

  
 53 








 (3) The Trustee may act through agents and shall not be responsible for the
misconduct or negligence of any agent appointed with due care. 
 (4) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it
takes or omits to take in good faith that it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture. 

(5) Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Indenture, any demand, request, direction or notice from the Issuers shall
be sufficient if signed by an officer of the General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership (or the Partnership if the Partnership is a corporation) or by an officer of Finance Corp. 

Section 6.03. Definitive Rights of Trustee. 

The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the Holder or pledgee of the Securities of any series and may otherwise deal
with the Partnership, Finance Corp. or an Affiliate of the Partnership or Finance Corp. with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Paying Agent or Security Registrar may do the same with like rights. However, the
Trustee is subject to Sections 6.09 and 6.10. 
 Section 6.04. Trustee’s Disclaimer. 

The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Securities of any
series, it shall not be accountable for the Issuers’ use of the proceeds from the Securities of any series or any money paid to the Issuers or upon the Issuers’ direction under any provision hereof, it shall not be responsible for the use
or application of any money received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee and it shall not be responsible for any statement or recital herein or any statement in the Securities of any series or any other document in connection with the sale of
the Securities of any series or pursuant to this Indenture other than its certificate of authentication and that it is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Indenture, authenticate the Securities and perform its obligations hereunder and that
the statements made by it in a Statement of Eligibility and Qualification on Form T-1, if any, supplied to the Issuers are true and accurate subject to the qualifications set forth therein. 

Section 6.05. Notice of Defaults. 
 If an
Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if it is known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail to Holders of the Securities of the applicable series a notice of the Event of Default within 90 days after it
occurs. Except in the case of an Event of Default in payment on any series of the Securities pursuant to Section 5.01(1) or (2), the Trustee may withhold the notice if it determines in good faith that withholding the notice is in the interests
of Holders of the Securities of such series. 

  
 54 








 Section 6.06. Compensation and Indemnity. 

The Issuers shall pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder.
The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuers shall reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for all reasonable disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made
by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel, except such disbursements, advances and expenses as may be
attributable to its negligence or bad faith. 
 The Issuers shall indemnify the Trustee against any and all losses, liabilities or expenses
incurred by it without negligence or bad faith on its part arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Indenture, except as set forth below. The Trustee shall notify the Issuers promptly of any
claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Issuers shall not relieve the Issuers of their obligations hereunder. The Issuers shall defend the claim and the Trustee shall cooperate in the
defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Issuers shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. Neither the Partnership nor Finance Corp. need pay for any settlement made without their consent, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld. 
 The obligations of the Issuers under this Section 6.06 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge
of this Indenture. 
 The Issuers need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss or liability incurred by the Trustee through
its own negligence or bad faith. 
 To secure the Issuers’ payment obligations in this Section 6.06, the Issuers hereby grant to the
Trustee a Lien prior to the Securities of any series on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal and interest on a particular series of the Securities. Such Lien shall survive the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 
 When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in
Section 5.01(8) or (9) occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law. 

Section 6.07. Replacement of Trustee. 
 A
resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee shall become effective only upon the successor Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 6.07. 

The Trustee may resign at any time with respect to the Securities of one or more series and be discharged from the trust hereby created by so
notifying the Issuers. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Issuers. The Issuers may remove the Trustee if: 

(1) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.09; 

  
 55 








 (2) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for relief is
entered with respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law; 
 (3) a Custodian or public officer takes charge of the
Trustee or its property; or 
 (4) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting. 

If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee, with respect to the Securities of one or more series,
for any reason, the Issuers shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee, with respect to Securities of that or those series. Within one year after the successor Trustee with respect to a series of Securities takes office, the Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series may appoint a successor Trustee with respect to such series to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Issuers. 

If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the
Partnership, Finance Corp. or the Holders of at least 10% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of a series may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 

If the Trustee after written request by any Holder of the Securities of any series who has been a Holder of such series of the Securities for
at least six months fails to comply with Section 6.09, such Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee. 

A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuers. Thereupon, the
resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to Holders
of the Securities of each applicable series. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, provided all sums owing to the Trustee hereunder have been paid and subject to the Lien provided
for in Section 6.06. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.07, the Issuers’ obligations under Section 6.06 hereof shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee. 

Section 6.08. Successor Trustee by Merger, etc. 

If the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another
corporation, the successor corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee. 
 Section 6.09. Eligibility; Disqualification. 

There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder that shall be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States
of America or of any state thereof authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, shall be subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority and shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $100 million as
set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. 

  
 56 








 Section 6.10. Preferential Collection of Claims Against Issuers. 

The Trustee is subject to Trust Indenture Act Section 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in Trust Indenture Act Section
311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to Trust Indenture Act Section 311(a) to the extent indicated therein.

 ARTICLE X 

COVENANTS 
 Section 10.01.
Payment of Securities. 
 The Issuers covenant and agree for the benefit of each series of Securities that they will pay the
principal of and interest on the Securities of that series on the dates and in the manner provided in the Securities of that series and this Indenture. An installment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on the Securities shall be
considered paid on the date it is due if the Trustee or Paying Agent (other than the Issuers or Affiliates of the Issuers) holds for the benefit of the Holders, on that date, immediately available funds deposited and designated for and sufficient to
pay all principal, premium, if any, and interest then due. 
 The Issuers shall pay interest on overdue principal and on overdue
installments of interest at the rate specified in the Securities compounded semi-annually, to the extent lawful. 
 Section 10.02.
Maintenance of Office or Agency. 
 The Issuers shall maintain in the Place of Payment for each series of Securities, an
office or agency where Securities of that series may be presented or surrendered for payment, where Securities of that series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Issuers in respect
of the Securities of that series and this Indenture may be served. The Issuers shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Issuers shall fail
to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee. 

The Issuers may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Securities of one or more series may be
presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Issuers of their obligation to maintain an
office or agency in each Place of Payment for Securities of any series for such purposes. The Issuers shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other
office or agency. The Issuers hereby initially designate the principal Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee as such office of the Issuers. 

Section 10.03. Money for Securities Payments to Be Held in Trust. 

If the Issuers shall at any time act as their own Paying Agent with respect to any series of Securities, the Issuers will, on or before each
due date of the principal of or any premium or interest on any of the Securities of that series, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal and any premium and interest so
becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and will promptly notify the Trustee of their action or failure so to act. 

  
 63 








 Whenever the Issuers shall have one or more Paying Agents for any series of Securities, they
will, on or prior to each due date of the principal of or any premium or interest on any Securities of that series, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such amount, such sum to be held as provided by the Trust Indenture Act, and
(unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Issuers will promptly notify the Trustee of their action or failure so to act. 
 The Issuers
will cause each Paying Agent for any series of Securities other than the Trustee to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 10.03, that such
Paying Agent will (1) comply with the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act applicable to it as a Paying Agent and (2) during the continuance of any Default by the Issuers (or any other obligor upon the Securities of that series) in the making of
any payment in respect of the Securities of that series, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums held in trust by such Paying Agent for payment in respect of the Securities of that series. 

The Issuers may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or
by Issuers’ Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Issuers or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which such sums were held by the Issuers or such
Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money. 

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Issuers, in trust for the payment of the principal of or any
premium or interest on any Security of any series and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Issuers on the Issuers’ Request, or (if then held by the Issuers)
shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Issuers for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust
money, and all liability of the Issuers as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Issuers cause to be
published once, in a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published on each Business Day and of general circulation in The City of New York, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which
shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Issuers. 

Section 10.04. Partnership and Corporate Existence. 

Subject to Article VIII, each of the Partnership and Finance Corp. shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in
full force and effect (a) its partnership or its corporate existence, as the case may be, and the partnership, corporate or other existence of each of their respective Subsidiaries, in accordance with their respective organizational documents (as
the same may be amended from time to time) and (b) its (and its Subsidiaries’) rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises; provided, however, that the Partnership and Finance Corp. shall not be required to preserve any such
right, license or franchise or the partnership, corporate or other existence of any Subsidiary if (i) the Board of Directors of the General Partner 

  
 64 








 
on behalf of the Partnership (or the Partnership if the Partnership is a corporation) shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the
Issuers and their respective Subsidiaries taken as a whole and (ii) the loss thereof is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders. 
 Section
10.05. Payment of Taxes and Other Claims. 
 Each of the Partnership and Finance Corp. shall, and shall cause each
of its respective Subsidiaries to, pay prior to delinquency all material taxes, assessments and governmental levies, except as contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings. 

Section 10.06. Compliance Certificate; Notice of Default. 

(a) The Partnership shall deliver to the Trustee within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year an Officer’s Certificate stating that
a review of its activities and the activities of its Subsidiaries (including Finance Corp.) during the preceding fiscal year has been made under the supervision of the signing officers with a view to determining whether each of the Issuers has kept,
observed, performed and fulfilled its obligations under this Indenture, and further stating, as to each such officer signing such certificate, that to the officer’s knowledge each Issuer has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and
every covenant contained in this Indenture, and is not in Default in the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions hereof or thereof (or, if an Event of Default shall have occurred, describing such Events of Default of
which the officer may have knowledge and what action is being taken or proposes to be taken with respect thereto). 
 (b) The Issuers shall,
so long as any of the Securities of any series are Outstanding, deliver to the Trustee, immediately upon becoming aware of (i) any Event of Default with respect to such series under this Indenture or (ii) any event of default under any other
mortgage, indenture or instrument referred to in Section 5.01(6), an Officer’s Certificate specifying such Event of Default or other event of default and what action the Issuers are taking or propose to take with respect thereto. 

Section 10.07. Waiver of Stay, Extension or Usury Laws. 

Each of the Partnership and Finance Corp. covenants for the benefit of each series of Securities (to the extent that each may lawfully do so)
that it will not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law or any usury law or other law wherever enacted that would prohibit or forgive the Issuers from paying
all or any portion of the principal of or interest on the Securities of that series as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and each of
the Partnership and Finance Corp. (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives for the benefit of each series of Securities all benefit or advantage of any such law insofar as such law applies to the Securities of that series,
and covenants for the benefit of each series of Securities that it shall not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee with respect to that series, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power
as though no such law had been enacted. 

  
 65 








 Section 10.08. Limitation on Liens. 

The Partnership shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Liens, other than
Permitted Liens, upon any of its respective property or assets, whether owned on the applicable Issue Date of a series of Securities or thereafter acquired, unless all payments due under this Indenture and any series of Securities are secured on an
equal and ratable basis with the obligations so secured until such time such obligations are no longer secured by a Lien. 
 Section 10.09.
Limitation on Additional Indebtedness. 
 The Partnership shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries
to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume or guarantee or in any manner become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise, for the payment of (in each case, to “incur”), any Indebtedness, unless at the time of
such incurrence, and after giving pro forma effect to the receipt and application of the proceeds of such Indebtedness, the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of the Partnership is greater than 2 to 1. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries may incur Permitted Indebtedness. 

For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 10.09, in the event that an item of proposed Indebtedness meets the criteria of more
than one of the categories of Permitted Indebtedness described in clauses (a) through (q) of the definition thereof, or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to the first paragraph of this Section 10.09, the Issuers will be permitted to classify such
item of Indebtedness on the date of its incurrence, or later reclassify all or a portion of such item of Indebtedness, in any manner that complies with this Section 10.09; provided that Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement outstanding on
the date of this Indenture shall be deemed to have been incurred on such date in reliance on the exception provided by clause (e) of the definition of Permitted Indebtedness and cannot be so reclassified. The accrual of interest, the accretion or
amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest on any Indebtedness in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, and the payment of dividends on Redeemable Capital Stock in the form of additional shares of the same
class of Redeemable Capital Stock will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness or an issuance of Redeemable Capital Stock for purposes of this Section 10.09. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 10.09, the maximum
amount of Indebtedness that the Partnership or any Restricted Subsidiary may incur pursuant to this Section 10.09 shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in exchange rates or currency values. 

Section 10.10. Limitation on Restricted Payments. 

The Partnership shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly: 

(a) declare or pay any dividend or make any other distribution or payment on or in respect of Capital Stock of the Partnership or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries or any payment made to the direct or indirect holders (in their capacities as such) of Capital Stock of the Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than (x) dividends or distributions payable solely in
Capital 

  
 66 








 
Stock of the Partnership (other than Redeemable Capital Stock) or in options, warrants or other rights to purchase Capital Stock of the Partnership (other than Redeemable Capital Stock); (y) the
declaration or payment of dividends or other distributions to the extent declared or paid to the Partnership or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Partnership; and (z) the declaration or payment of dividends or other distributions by any Restricted
Subsidiary of the Partnership to all holders of Capital Stock of such Restricted Subsidiary on a pro rata basis (including, in the case of the Operating Partnership, to the general partner thereof)); 

(b) purchase, redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value any Capital Stock of the Partnership or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries (other than any such Capital Stock owned by a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary of the Partnership); 
 (c) make any principal
payment on, or purchase, defease, repurchase, redeem or otherwise acquire or retire for value, prior to any scheduled maturity, scheduled repayment, scheduled sinking fund payment or other Stated Maturity, any Subordinated Indebtedness (other than
any such Indebtedness owned by the Partnership or a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary of the Partnership); or 
 (d) make any Investment
(other than any Permitted Investment) in any entity 
 (such payments or Investments described in the preceding clauses (a), (b), (c) and (d) are
collectively referred to as “Restricted Payments”), unless, at the time of and after giving effect to the proposed Restricted Payment, (A) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (B) such Restricted
Payment, together with the aggregate of all other Restricted Payments made by the Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries during the fiscal quarter during which such Restricted Payment is made, shall not exceed (I) if the Consolidated Fixed
Charge Coverage Ratio of the Partnership shall be greater than 1.75 to 1, an amount equal to: (x) Available Cash as of the end of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter, plus (y) to the extent that any Investment that was made pursuant to this
clause (I) or clause (II) below is sold for cash or otherwise liquidated or repaid for cash, the cash return of capital with respect to such Investment (less the cost of disposition, if any), to the extent not previously expended pursuant to this
clause (I), plus (z) the net reduction in Investments made pursuant to this clause (I) or clause (II) below resulting from cash dividends, repayments of loans or advances, or other transfers of assets in each case to the Partnership or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries from any Person (including, without limitation, Unrestricted Subsidiaries) or from redesignations of Unrestricted Subsidiaries as Restricted Subsidiaries, to the extent not previously expended pursuant to this clause (I); or
(II) if the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of the Partnership shall be equal to or less than 1.75 to 1, an amount equal to the sum of: (x) $300 million, less (y) the aggregate amount of all Restricted Payments made by the Partnership and
its Restricted Subsidiaries pursuant to this clause (II) during the period ending on the last day of the fiscal quarter of the Partnership immediately preceding the date of such Restricted Payment and beginning on the first day of the sixteenth full
fiscal quarter immediately preceding the date of such Restricted Payment, plus (y) the aggregate net cash proceeds of any substantially concurrent (1) capital contribution to the Partnership from any Person (other than a Restricted Subsidiary of the
Partnership) or (2) issuance and sale of shares of Capital Stock (other than Redeemable Capital Stock) of the Partnership to any Person (other than to a Restricted Subsidiary of the Partnership). The amount of any such Restricted Payment, if other
than cash, shall be the fair 

  
 67 








 
market value (as determined in good faith by the General Partner) on the date of such Restricted Payment of the asset(s) proposed to be transferred by the Partnership or such Restricted
Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to such Restricted Payment. 
 None of the foregoing provisions will prohibit: (i) the payment of
any dividend or distribution within 60 days after the date of its declaration, if at the date of declaration such payment would be permitted by the foregoing paragraph; (ii) the making of any Restricted Payment in exchange for, or out of the net
cash proceeds of, a substantially concurrent (not to exceed 120 days following the receipt of such net cash proceeds) (x) capital contribution to the Partnership from any Person (other than a Restricted Subsidiary of the Partnership); or (y)
issuance and sale of other Capital Stock (other than Redeemable Capital Stock) of the Partnership to any Person (other than to a Restricted Subsidiary of the Partnership); provided, however, that the amount of any net cash proceeds
that are utilized for any such Restricted Payment will be excluded from the calculation of Available Cash; (iii) any redemption, repurchase or other acquisition or retirement of subordinated Indebtedness in exchange for, or out of the net cash
proceeds of, a substantially concurrent (not to exceed 120 days following the receipt of such net cash proceeds) (x) capital contribution to the Partnership from any Person (other than a Restricted Subsidiary of the Partnership); or (y) issuance and
sale of (a) Capital Stock (other than Redeemable Capital Stock) of the Partnership to any Person (other than to a Restricted Subsidiary of the Partnership), or (b) Indebtedness of the Partnership issued to any Person (other than a Restricted
Subsidiary of the Partnership), so long as the Indebtedness is Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; provided, however, that the amount of any net cash proceeds that are utilized for any redemption, repurchase or other acquisition or
retirement will be excluded from the calculation of Available Cash; or (iv) so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing or would be caused thereby, other Restricted Payments in an aggregate amount since the applicable Issue Date of a series
of Securities not to exceed $30.0 million. In computing the amount of Restricted Payments previously made for purposes of the preceding paragraph, Restricted Payments made under clause (i) shall be included and Restricted Payments made under clauses
(ii), (iii) and (iv) shall not be so included. 
 Section 10.11. Limitation on Transactions with Affiliates. 

The Partnership shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, enter into or suffer to exist
any transaction or series of related transactions (including, without limitation, the sale, transfer, disposition, purchase, exchange or lease of assets, property or services), other than as provided for, as of the date of this Indenture, in the
Operative Agreements, with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Partnership, unless (1) such transaction or series of related transactions is between the Partnership and its Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiaries or between two Wholly Owned
Restricted Subsidiaries or (2) (a) such transaction or series of related transactions is on terms that are no less favorable to the Partnership or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those which would have been obtained in a
comparable transaction at such time from Persons who are not Affiliates of the Partnership or a Restricted Subsidiary and (b) with respect to a transaction or series of transactions involving aggregate payments or value equal to or greater than $50
million, the Partnership shall have delivered an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee certifying that such transaction or series of transactions complies with the preceding clause (a) and that such transaction or series of transactions has been
approved by a majority of the Board of Directors of 

  
 68 








 
the General Partner (including a majority of the Disinterested Directors); provided, however, that this Section 10.11 will not restrict the Partnership, any Restricted Subsidiary or the
General Partner from entering into (A) any employment agreement, stock option agreement, restricted stock agreement or other similar agreement in the ordinary course of business, (B) any transactions permitted by the provisions of this Indenture set
forth in Sections 10.10 hereof; (C) any transactions in the ordinary course of business in connection with reinsuring the self-insurance programs or other similar forms of retained insurable risks of the Partnership or (D) any Accounts Receivable
Securitization. 
 Section 10.12. Limitation on Dividends and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Subsidiaries. 

The Partnership shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, create or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become
effective any encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to (a) pay dividends, in cash or otherwise, or make any other distributions on or in respect of its Capital Stock or any other interest or participation in, or
measured by, its profits, (b) pay any Indebtedness owed to the Partnership or any other Restricted Subsidiary, (c) make loans or advances to, or any investment in, the Partnership or any other Restricted Subsidiary, (d) transfer any of its
properties or assets to the Partnership or any other Restricted Subsidiary or (e) guarantee any Indebtedness of the Partnership or any other Restricted Subsidiary (collectively, “Payment Restrictions”), except for such encumbrances or
restrictions existing under or by reason of (i) applicable law, (ii) any agreement in effect at or entered into on the Issue Date of a particular series of Securities or any agreement relating to any Permitted Indebtedness; provided, however,
that the encumbrances and restrictions contained in the agreements governing such Permitted Indebtedness are no more restrictive with respect to such Payment Restrictions than those set forth in the Credit Agreement as in effect on the Issue Date of
the series of Securities, (iii) customary non-assignment provisions of any contract or any lease governing a leasehold interest of the Partnership or any Restricted Subsidiary, (iv) purchase money obligations for property acquired in the ordinary
course of business that impose restrictions of the nature described in clause (d) above on the property so acquired, (v) any agreement or other instrument of a Person acquired by the Partnership or any Restricted Subsidiary (or of a Restricted
Subsidiary of such Person) in existence at the time of such acquisition (but not created in contemplation thereof), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person or the properties or assets of any Person other than the Person, or
the properties, assets or Subsidiaries of the Person, so acquired, or (vi) provisions contained in agreements or instruments relating to Indebtedness which prohibit the transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the obligor thereunder
unless the transferee shall assume the obligations of the obligor under such agreement or instrument. 
 Section 10.13. Limitation on Finance Corp.

 In addition to the restrictions set forth under Section 10.09 hereof, Finance Corp. or any substitute obligor may not incur any
Indebtedness unless (a) the Partnership is a co-obligor or guarantor of such Indebtedness or (b) the net proceeds of such Indebtedness are either lent to the Partnership, used to acquire outstanding debt securities issued by the Partnership or used
directly or indirectly to refinance or discharge Indebtedness permitted under the limitation of this Section 10.13. Finance Corp. may not engage in any business not related directly or indirectly to obtaining money or arranging financing for
the Partnership. 

  
 69 








 Section 10.14. Asset Sales. 

The Partnership shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, (i) sell, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of any
assets (including by way of a Sale and Leaseback Transaction) other than sales of inventory in the ordinary course of business (provided, that the sale, lease, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the
Partnership shall be governed by the provisions of this Indenture set forth under Section 10.15 hereof or Article VIII hereof and not by the provisions of this Section 10.14) or (ii) issue or sell Capital Stock of any of its Restricted Subsidiaries,
in the case of either clause (i) or (ii) above, whether in a single transaction or a series of related transactions (each of the foregoing, an “Asset Sale”), unless (x) the Partnership (or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may
be) receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the fair market value (as determined in good faith by the General Partner) of the assets sold or otherwise disposed of and (y) at least 75% of the consideration therefor
received by the Partnership or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of cash; provided, however, that the amount of (A) any liabilities (as shown on the Partnership’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet or
in the notes thereto) of the Partnership or any Restricted Subsidiary that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets; (B) any notes or other obligations received by the Partnership or any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that
are converted within 180 days of such Asset Sale by the Partnership or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash (to the extent of the cash received), and (C) any Designated Non-Cash Consideration received by the Partnership or such Restricted Subsidiary
in such Asset Sale having an aggregate fair market value, taken together with all other Designated Non-Cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (C) that is at such time outstanding, not to exceed an amount equal to the greater of (x)
$100.0 million and (y) 5.0% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets of the Partnership at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-Cash Consideration, with the fair market value of each item of Designated Non-Cash Consideration being measured at
the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value shall be deemed to be cash for purposes of this provision; and provided, further, that the 75% limitation referred to in this clause (y) shall not apply to any Asset
Sale in which the cash portion of the consideration received therefrom, determined in accordance with the foregoing proviso, is equal to or greater than what the after-tax proceeds would have been had such Asset Sale complied with the aforementioned
75% limitation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Asset Sales shall not be deemed to include (1) any single transaction or series of related transactions that involves assets having fair market value of less than $25.0 million, (2) any transfer of
assets or Capital Stock by the Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary of the Partnership, (3) any transfer of assets or Capital Stock by the Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to any
Person in exchange for other assets having a fair market value (as determined in good faith by the General Partner) not less than that of the assets so transferred, (4) any transfer of assets pursuant to a Permitted Investment and (5) any transfer
of accounts receivable under any Accounts Receivable Securitization. 
 In the event that the Partnership or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries receives Net Proceeds from one or more Assets Sales in any fiscal year, then within 360 days after such date the Partnership shall apply the amount of such aggregate Net Proceeds to (a) reduce Indebtedness of


  
 70 








 
a Restricted Subsidiary (with a permanent reduction of availability in the case of revolving Indebtedness) or (b) make an investment in assets; provided that, with respect to any portion
of Net Proceeds relating to clause (b), the 360-day period provided above shall be extended by an additional 180 days if by not later than the 360th day after receipt of such Net Proceeds, the Issuers or a Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, have
entered into a binding commitment with a Person other than an Affiliate of the Issuers to make an investment of the type referred to in such clause in the amount of such Net Proceeds. Any Net Proceeds that are not applied or invested in either of
these ways will be considered “Excess Proceeds.” 
 Pending the final application of any such Net Proceeds, the Partnership or any
Restricted Subsidiary may temporarily reduce borrowings under the Credit Agreement or otherwise invest such Net Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by this Indenture. When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $50 million, the
Issuers shall make an offer to all Holders of the Securities of applicable series (an “Asset Sale Offer”) and to all holders of other pari passu debt securities of the Partnership or the Issuers containing provisions similar to those set
forth in this Indenture with respect to offers to purchase with the proceeds of sales of assets, to purchase the maximum principal amount of the Securities and such other pari passu debt securities that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds,
at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture. To the extent that the aggregate
amount of the Securities and other pari passu debt securities tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Partnership or any Restricted Subsidiary may use such deficiency for general business purposes. If the
aggregate principal amount of the Securities and other pari passu debt securities surrendered by Holders thereof exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Securities or other pari passu debt securities to be purchased on a
pro rata basis. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Issuers are required to commence an Asset Sale Offer at any time when the Issuers
have securities outstanding ranking pari passu in right of payment with the Securities of the applicable series and the terms of those securities provide that a similar offer must be made with respect to those other securities, then the Asset
Sale Offer for the Securities will be made concurrently with the other offers and securities of each issue will be accepted on a pro rata basis in proportion to the aggregate principal amount of securities of each issue which their holders
elect to have purchased. Upon completion of the Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero. 
 In the event
the Issuers are required to make an Asset Sale Offer pursuant to Section 11.08 and this Section 10.14, and the amount of the Net Proceeds from the Asset Sale is not evenly divisible by $1,000, the Trustee shall promptly refund to the Issuers the
portion of such Excess Proceeds that is not necessary to purchase the immediately lesser principal amount of the Securities that is so divisible. 

Section 10.15. Change of Control. 

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each Holder of the Securities shall have the right to require the Issuers to repurchase all or any
part (equal to $1,000 (or such higher minimum authorized denomination applicable to such series of the Securities) or an integral 

  
 71 








 
multiple thereof) of such Holder’s Securities pursuant to the offer described below (the “Change of Control Offer”) at an offer price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate
principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Payment”). Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Issuers will mail (or deliver in accordance with applicable
Depositary procedures) a notice to each Holder stating: (1) that the Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 10.15 and that all of the Securities tendered will be accepted for payment; (2) the purchase price and the purchase
date (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), which shall be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed; (3) that any Security not tendered will continue to accrue interest; (4) that, unless the
Issuers default in the payment of the Change of Control Payment, all of the Securities accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer will cease to accrue interest after the Change of Control Payment Date; (5) that Holders electing to
have any Securities purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender the Securities, in accordance with such Change of Control Offer, to the Paying Agent for the series of Securities at the address specified in the
notice prior to the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date; (6) that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their election if the Paying Agent for the series of the Securities receives, not later than
the close of business on the second Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Securities delivered for purchase,
and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Securities purchased; and (7) that Holders whose Securities are being purchased only in part will be issued new Securities equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion
of the Securities surrendered, which unpurchased portion must be equal to $1,000 in principal amount (or such higher minimum authorized denomination applicable to such series of the Securities) or an integral multiple of $1,000. 

On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuers shall, to the extent lawful, (1) accept for payment the Securities or portions thereof
tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, (2) deposit with the Paying Agent for the series of the Securities an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all of the Securities or portions thereof so tendered and (3) deliver
or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Securities so accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate stating the aggregate amount of the Securities of such series or portions thereof tendered to the Issuers. The Paying Agent for the series
of the Securities will promptly mail the Change of Control Payment for such Securities to each Holder of the Securities so accepted, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail to each Holder a new Security equal in principal amount to the
unpurchased portion of the Securities of such series surrendered, if any; provided that each such new Security of such series will be in a principal amount of $1,000 (or such higher minimum authorized denomination applicable to such series of
the Securities) or an integral multiple of $1,000. The Issuers will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date. 

In the event that Holders of not less than 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities of a series then Outstanding accept a
Change of Control Offer and the Issuers purchase all of the Securities of such series tendered by such Holders, the Issuers will have the right, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following
the purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer described above, to redeem all of the Securities of such series that remain Outstanding following such purchase at a Redemption Price 

  
 72 








 
equal to the Change of Control Payment plus, to the extent not included in the Change of Control Payment, accrued and unpaid interest on the Securities of such series that remain Outstanding, to,
but excluding, the Redemption Date, subject to the rights of the Holders of the Securities of such series on a relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date. 

The Issuers shall comply with any tender offer rules under the Exchange Act which may then be applicable, including Rule 14e-1, in connection
with any offer required to be made by the Issuers to repurchase the Securities as a result of a Change of Control. To the extent that the provisions of any applicable securities laws or regulations conflict with provisions of this Section
10.15, the Issuers shall comply with such securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations hereunder by virtue thereof. 

Section 10.16. No Recourse Against Others. 

(a)No director, officer, employee, agent, manager, limited partner, interest holder or stockholder of the Partnership or Finance Corp., as
such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Partnership or Finance Corp. under the Securities or this Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations. Each Holder of Securities, by accepting such
Securities, waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release shall be part of the consideration for the issuance of the Securities. 

(b)Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this provision shall be construed as a waiver or release of any claims under the federal
securities laws. 
 Section 10.17. Termination of Certain Covenants when Series of Notes Rated Investment Grade 

If a series of Securities shall have an Investment Grade Rating pursuant to ratings from two of the Rating Agencies and the Issuers shall have
delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate certifying that the foregoing condition has been satisfied (and notwithstanding the failure of such series of Securities to maintain an Investment Grade Rating), then Sections 8.01(a)(iv),
10.09, 10.10, 10.11, 10.12 and 10.14 will no longer be applicable to such series of Securities. 
 ARTICLE XI 

REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES 
 Section
11.01. Applicability of Article. 
 The Securities of any series which are redeemable before their Stated Maturity
shall be redeemable in accordance with their terms and (except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for the Securities of any series) in accordance with this Article. 

  
 73 








 Section 11.02. Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee. 

The election of the Issuers to redeem any Securities shall be evidenced by Board Resolutions. In case of any redemption at the election of the
Issuers of less than all the Securities of any series, the Issuers shall, at least 60 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Issuers (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date,
of the principal amount of Securities of such series to be redeemed and, if applicable, of the tenor of the Securities to be redeemed. In the case of any redemption of Securities prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption provided
in the terms of such Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture, the Issuers shall furnish the Trustee with an Officer’s Certificate evidencing compliance with such restriction. 

Section 11.03. Selection by Trustee of Securities to Be Redeemed. 

If less than all the Securities of any series are to be redeemed (unless all of the Securities of such series and of a specified tenor are to
be redeemed), the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the Outstanding Securities of such series not previously called for redemption, by such method as the
Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of portions (equal to the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of that series or any integral multiple of $1,000) of the principal amount of
Securities of such series of a denomination larger than the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of that series. If less than all of the Securities of such series and of a specified tenor are to be redeemed, the particular Securities
to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the Outstanding Securities of such series and specified tenor not previously called for redemption in accordance with the preceding sentence.

 The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuers in writing of the Securities selected for redemption and, in the case of any Securities
selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. 
 For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context
otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities shall relate, in the case of any Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Securities which has been or is to be
redeemed. 
 Section 11.04. Notice of Redemption. 

Notice of redemption shall be given by first-class mail (or delivered in accordance with applicable Depositary procedures), postage prepaid,
mailed not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed, at his address appearing in the Security Register. 

All notices of redemption shall state: 

(1) the Redemption Date, 

(2) the Redemption Price, 

  
 74 








 (3) if less than all the Outstanding Securities of any series are to be redeemed,
the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption of any Securities, the principal amount) of the particular Securities to be redeemed, 

(4) that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each such Security to be redeemed and,
if applicable, that interest thereon will cease to accrue on and after said date, 
 (5) the place or places where such
Securities are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price, 
 (6) that the redemption is for a sinking fund, if
such is the case, and 
 (7) applicable CUSIP numbers. 

Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed at the election of the Issuers shall be given by the Issuers or, at the Issuer’s
request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuers and shall be irrevocable. Any redemption or notice may, at the Issuers’ discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent. 

Section 11.05. Deposit of Redemption Price. 

Prior to any Redemption Date, the Issuers shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent an amount of money sufficient to pay the
Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued interest on, all the Securities which are to be redeemed on that date. 

Section 11.06. Securities Payable on Redemption Date. 

Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at
the Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the Issuers shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such Securities shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such
Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Security shall be paid by the Issuers at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that, unless otherwise specified as
contemplated by Section 3.01, installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more predecessor securities, registered as such at the close of business
on the relevant Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 3.07. 
 If any Security called for redemption shall not
be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal and any premium shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed therefor in the Security. 

  
 75 








 Section 11.07. Securities Redeemed in Part. 

Any Security which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at a Place of Payment therefor (with, if the Issuers or the Trustee so
requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuers and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing), and the Issuers shall execute, and the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security without service charge, a new Security or Securities of the same series and of like tenor, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal
to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered. 
 Section 11.08. Offer to Purchase by Application of
Excess Proceeds. 
 Any Asset Sale Offer pursuant to Section 10.14 shall remain open for a period of 20 Business Days following its
commencement and no longer, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the “Offer Period”). On a date within five Business Days after the termination of the Offer Period (the “Purchase Date”), the
Issuers shall purchase the principal amount of Securities required to be purchased pursuant to Section 10.14 hereof (the “Offer Amount”) or, if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Securities tendered in response to the Asset
Sale Offer. Payment for any Securities so purchased shall be made in the same manner as interest payments are made. 
 The Issuers shall
comply with any tender offer rules under the Exchange Act which may then be applicable, including Rule 14e-1, in connection with any offer required to be made by the Issuers to repurchase the Securities as a result of an Asset Sale Offer. To
the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with provisions of this Section 11.08, the Issuers shall comply with the applicable securities laws or regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached their
obligations hereunder by virtue thereof. 
 If the Purchase Date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related
interest payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name a Security is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no additional interest shall be payable to Holders who tender Securities
pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. 
 Upon the commencement of an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuers shall send, by first class mail, a notice to
the Trustee and each of the Holders, with a copy to the Trustee. The notice shall contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender Securities pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. The Asset Sale Offer shall be
made to all Holders. The notice, which shall govern the terms of the Asset Sale Offer, shall state: 
 (a) that the Asset Sale Offer is
being made pursuant to this Section 11.08 and Section 10.14 hereof and the length of time the Asset Sale Offer shall remain open; 
 (b) the
Offer Amount, the purchase price and the Purchase Date; 
 (c) that any Security not tendered or accepted for payment shall continue to
accrue interest; 

  
 76 








 (d) that, unless the Issuers default in making such payments, any Security accepted for payment
pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer shall cease to accrue interest after the Purchase Date; 
 (e) that Holders electing to have a Security
purchased pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer may only elect to have all of such Security purchased and may not elect to have only a portion of such Security purchased; 

(f) that Holders electing to have a Security purchased pursuant to any Asset Sale Offer shall be required to surrender the Security, with a
form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” delivered with the notice, or transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Issuers, a Depositary, if appointed by the Issuers, or a Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice at least
three days before the Purchase Date; 
 (g) that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the Issuers, the Depositary or the
Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives, not later than the expiration of the Offer Period, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Security the Holder delivered for
purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Security purchased; 
 (h) that, if the aggregate
principal amount of the Securities surrendered by Holders exceeds the Offer Amount, the Issuers shall select the Securities to be purchased on a pro rata basis (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Issuers so that only
Securities in denominations of $1,000 (or such higher minimum authorized denomination applicable to such series of the Securities) or an integral multiple of $1,000, shall be purchased); and 

(i) that Holders whose Securities were purchased only in part shall be issued new Securities equal in principal amount to the unpurchased
portion of the Securities surrendered (or transferred by book-entry transfer). 
 On or before the Purchase Date, the Issuers shall, to the
extent lawful, accept for payment, on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the Offer Amount of the Securities or portions thereof tendered pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer, or if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all of the
Securities tendered, and shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that such Securities or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Issuers in accordance with the terms of this Section 11.08. The Issuers, the
Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, shall promptly (but in any case not later than five days after the Purchase Date) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder an amount equal to the purchase price of the Securities tendered by such
Holder and accepted by the Issuers for purchase, and the Issuers shall promptly issue a new Security, and the Trustee, upon written request from the Issuers shall authenticate and mail or deliver such new Security to such Holder, in a principal
amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Security surrendered. Any Security not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Issuers to the Holder thereof. The Issuers shall publicly announce by means of a press release the results
of the Asset Sale Offer on the Purchase Date. 
 Other than as specifically provided in this Section 11.08, any purchase pursuant to this
Section 11.08 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 11.01 through 11.07 hereof. 

  
 77 








 No repurchase of the Securities under this Section 11.08 shall be deemed to be a redemption of
the Securities. 
 ARTICLE XII 

SINKING FUNDS 
 Section
12.01. Applicability of Article. 
 The provisions of this Article shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the
retirement of Securities of a series except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for the Securities of such series. 
 The
minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of the Securities of any series is herein referred to as a “mandatory sinking fund payment”, and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided for by the terms of
the Securities of any series is herein referred to as an “optional sinking fund payment”. If provided for by the terms of the Securities of any series, the cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as provided in
Section 12.02. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of the Securities of any series as provided for by the terms of the Securities of such series. 

Section 12.02. Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities. 

The Issuers (1) may deliver Outstanding Securities of a series (other than any previously called for redemption) and (2) may apply as a credit
the Securities of a series which have been redeemed either at the election of the Issuers pursuant to the terms of such Securities or through the application of permitted optional sinking fund payments pursuant to the terms of such Securities, in
each case in satisfaction of all or any part of any sinking fund payment with respect to the Securities of such series required to be made pursuant to the terms of such Securities as provided for by the terms of such series; provided that
such Securities have not been previously so credited. Such Securities shall be received and credited for such purpose by the Trustee at the Redemption Price specified in such Securities for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and
the amount of such sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly. 
 Section 12.03. Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund.

 Not less than 60 days prior to each sinking fund payment date for any series of the Securities, the Issuers will deliver to the
Trustee an Officer’s Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing sinking fund payment for that series pursuant to the terms of that series, the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by payment of cash and the portion
thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting the Securities of that series pursuant to Section 12.02 and will also deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so delivered. Not less than 30 days before each such sinking fund
payment date, the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date in the manner specified in Section 11.03 and cause notice of the redemption thereof to be given in the name of and at the expense of the Issuers
in the manner provided in Section 11.04. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 11.06 and 11.07.

 ARTICLE XIII 

LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE 

Section 13.01. Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 

The Issuers may, at the option of the Board of Directors of the General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership (or the Partnership if the
Partnership is a corporation), and the Board of Directors of Finance Corp., in each case evidenced by Board Resolutions, elect to have either Section 13.02 or Section 13.03 applied to the Outstanding Securities of any series designated pursuant to
Section 3.01 as being defeasible pursuant to this Article XIII (hereinafter called a “Defeasible Series”), upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article XIII. 

Section 13.02. Legal Defeasance and Discharge. 

Upon the Issuers’ exercise of the option provided in Section 13.01 to have this Section 13.02 applied to the Outstanding Securities of
any Defeasible Series and, subject to the proviso to Section 13.01, the Issuers shall be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to the Outstanding Securities of such series as provided in this Section 13.02 on and after
the date the conditions set forth in Section 13.04 are satisfied (hereinafter called “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, such Legal Defeasance means that the Issuers shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness
represented by the Outstanding Securities of such series and to have satisfied all other obligations under the Securities of such series and this Indenture insofar as the Securities of such series are concerned (and the Trustee, on demand of and at
the expense of the Issuers, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following, which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (1) the rights of Holders of the Securities of such series to
receive, solely from the trust fund described in Section 13.04 and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of and any premium and interest on such Securities of such series when payments are due, (2) the
Issuers’ obligations with respect to the Securities of such series under Sections 3.04, 3.05, 3.06, 10.02 and 10.03, (3) the Issuers’ obligation to maintain an office or agency for payment and money for security payments held in trust, (4)
the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and (5) this Article XIII. Subject to compliance with this Article XIII, the Issuers may exercise their option provided in Section 13.01 to have this Section 13.02 applied to
the Outstanding Securities of any Defeasible Series notwithstanding the prior exercise of their option provided in Section 13.01 to have Section 13.03 applied to the Outstanding Securities of such series. 

Section 13.03. Covenant Defeasance. 

Upon the Issuers’ exercise of the option provided in Section 13.01 to have this Section 13.03 applied to the Outstanding Securities of
any Defeasible Series, (1) the Issuers shall be released from their obligations under Section 8.01, and Sections 7.04, 10.04-10.06, 10.08-10.16, and Article XII, and (2) the occurrence of any event specified in Sections 5.01(3), 5.01(4) (with


  
 79 








 
respect to any of Sections 8.01, 10.04, 10.05, 10.08-10.16, and Article XII), 5.01(5), 5.01(6) and 5.01(9), and 5.01(7) and 5.01(8) with respect to any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Significant
Subsidiary, shall be deemed not to be or result in an Event of Default, in each case with respect to the Outstanding Securities of such series as provided in this Section 13.03 on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 13.04 are
satisfied (hereinafter called “Covenant Defeasance”). For this purpose, such Covenant Defeasance means that the Issuers may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any
such specified Section (to the extent so specified in the case of Section 5.01(4)), whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such Section or by reason of any reference in any such Section to any other
provision herein or in any other document, but the remainder of this Indenture and the Securities of such series shall be unaffected thereby. 
 Section
13.04. Conditions to Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 
 The following shall be the conditions to application of either Section
13.02 or Section 13.03 to the Outstanding Securities of any Defeasible Series: 
 (1) The Issuers shall irrevocably have
deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee (or another trustee that satisfies the requirements contemplated by Section 6.10 and agrees to comply with the provisions of this Article XIII applicable to it) as trust funds in trust for the
purpose of making the following payments, specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated solely to, the benefit of the Holders of Outstanding Securities of such series, (A) money in an amount, or (B) Government Securities that through the
scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide, not later than one day before the due date of any payment, money in an amount, or (C) a combination thereof, in each case sufficient, in the
opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee (or any such other qualifying
trustee) to pay and discharge, the principal of and any premium and interest on the Securities of such series on the respective Stated Maturities, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and the Securities of such series. 

(2) In the case of an election under Section 13.02, the Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel
stating that (A) the Issuers have received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (B) since the date first set forth hereinabove, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in either
case (A) or (B) to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the Holders of the Outstanding Securities of such series will not recognize gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit, Legal
Defeasance and discharge to be effected with respect to the Securities of such series and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit, Legal Defeasance and
discharge were not to occur (which opinion need not address the effect of a transfer or other disposition of a Holder’s interest in Outstanding Securities of a series of the Securities before the respective Stated Maturity or Redemption Date).


  
 80 








 (3) In the case of an election under Section 13.03, the Issuers shall have
delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Holders of the Outstanding Securities of such series will not recognize gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit and Covenant Defeasance to be
effected with respect to the Securities of such series and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit and Covenant Defeasance were not to occur (which
opinion need not address the effect of a transfer or other disposition of a Holder’s interest in Outstanding Securities of a series of the Securities before the respective Stated Maturity or Redemption Date). 

(4) The Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that the Securities of such
series, if then listed on any securities exchange, will not be delisted as a result of such deposit. 
 (5) No Event of
Default or Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such deposit or, with regard to any Event of Default or any such event specified in Sections 5.01(8) and (9), at any time on or prior to the 90th day after the date of such
deposit (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until after such 90th day). 
 (6) Such Legal
Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not cause the Trustee to have a conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act (assuming all of the Securities are in default within the meaning of such Act). 

(7) Such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under,
any other agreement or instrument to which the Issuers are a party or by which they are bound. 
 (8) The Issuers shall have
delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent with respect to such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance have been complied with. 

(9) Such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in the trust arising from such deposit constituting an
investment company within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, unless such trust shall be qualified under such Act or exempt from regulation thereunder. 

(10) On or prior to the 91st day following the deposit, the Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel
to the effect that on the 91st day following the deposit, the trust funds are not subject to any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally. 

(11) The Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by
the Issuers with the intent of preferring the Holders over any other creditors of the Issuers or with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any other creditors of the Issuers. 

  
 81 








 Section 13.05. Deposited Money and Government Securities to be Held in Trust; Other
Miscellaneous Provisions. 
 All money and Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee or other
qualifying trustee (solely for purposes of this Section 13.05 and Section 13.06, the Trustee and any such other trustee are referred to collectively as the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 13.04 in respect of the Securities of any Defeasible
Series shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities of such series and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any such Paying Agent (including the Issuers acting as Paying
Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of the Securities of such series, of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal and any premium and interest, but money so held in trust need not be segregated from other funds
except to the extent required by law. 
 The Issuers shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or
assessed against the 
 Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 13.04 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof
other than any such tax, fee or other charge that by law is for the account of the Holders of Outstanding Securities. 
 Anything in this
Article XIII to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Issuers from time to time upon the Issuers’ Request any money or Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 13.04 with respect to Securities of
any Defeasible Series that, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be
required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance with respect to the Securities of such series. 

Subject to any applicable abandoned property law, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Issuers upon request any money held by
them for the payment of principal, interest, and any premium that remains unclaimed for one year after such principal, interest, or premium, if any, became due and payable, and, thereafter, Holders entitled to the money must look to the Issuers for
payment of such money as secured creditors and all liability of the Trustee and the Paying Agent with respect to such money shall cease. 
 Section
13.06. Reinstatement. 
 If the Trustee or the Paying Agent is unable to apply any money in accordance with this
Article XIII with respect to the Securities of any series by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Issuers’ obligations under this
Indenture and the Securities of such series shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article XIII with respect to the Securities of such series until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to
apply all money held in trust pursuant to Section 13.05 with respect to the Securities of such series in accordance with this Article XIII; provided, however, that if the Issuers make any payment of principal of or any premium or interest on
any Security of such series following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuers shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of the Securities of such series to receive such payment from the money so held in trust.

 This instrument may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be
deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.
