 (c) the issue price and issuance date of such Securities, including the date from which interest on such Securities shall accrue; 
 (d) if applicable, that such Securities shall be issuable in whole or in part in the form of one or more Global Securities and, in such case, the respective depositories for such Global Securities, the
form of any legend or legends that shall be borne by any such Global Security in addition to or in lieu of those set forth in Section 2.3(e) of Exhibit A and any circumstances in addition to or in lieu of those set forth in
Section 2.3 of Exhibit A in which any such Global Security may be exchanged in whole or in part for Securities registered, and any transfer of such Global Security in whole or in part may be registered, in the name or names of
Persons other than the depository for such Global Security or a nominee thereof; and 
 (e) if applicable, that such Securities
shall not be issued in the form of Initial Securities or Additional Securities, but shall be issued in the form of Private Exchange Securities or Exchange Securities. 
 If any of the terms of any series are established by action taken pursuant to a resolution of the Board of Directors, a copy of an appropriate record of such action shall be certified by the Secretary or
any Assistant Secretary of the Company and delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the delivery of the Officers’ Certificate or the trust indenture supplemental hereto setting forth the terms of the series. 

Section 2.02 Form and Dating. Provisions relating to the Securities are set forth in Exhibit A, which
is hereby incorporated in and expressly made part of this Indenture. The 

  
 31 









 
Securities of each series and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form of Appendix I to Exhibit A which is hereby incorporated in and
expressly made a part of this Indenture. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Securities offered and sold to QIBs in reliance on Rule 144A shall include the form of assignment set forth in Appendix I to Exhibit A and
Securities offered and sold in offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation S (other than Initial Securities offered on the Issue Date) shall include the form of certificate set forth in Exhibit B. The Securities of each series
may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule, agreements to which the Company is subject, if any, or usage; provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form reasonably acceptable to the
Company. Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. The terms of the Securities of each series set forth in Appendix I to Exhibit A are part of the terms of this Indenture. 

Section 2.03 Execution and Authentication. Two Officers of the Company or of Holdings in its capacity as the manager of the
Company (or one Officer and the Vice President and Secretary of the Company or of Holdings in its capacity as the manager of the Company) shall sign the Securities for the Company by manual or facsimile signature. 

If an Officer whose signature is on a Security no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Security, the
Security shall be valid nevertheless. 
 At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture,
the Company may deliver Securities of any series executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a written order of the Company signed by two Officers or by an Officer and either a Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer or a
Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company or of Holdings in its capacity as the manager of the Company, and the Trustee in accordance with such written order of the Company shall authenticate and deliver such Securities. 

A Security shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee manually signs the certificate of authentication on the
Security. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Security has been authenticated under this Indenture. 
 The
Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent reasonably acceptable to the Company to authenticate the Securities. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate Securities whenever the Trustee may do
so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as any Registrar, Paying Agent or agent for service of notices and demands.

 The Trustee shall not be required to authenticate such Securities if the issue thereof may adversely affect the
Trustee’s own rights, duties, indemnities or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture, as determined by the Trustee in its sole discretion. 
 Section 2.04 Registrar and Paying Agent. The Company shall maintain an office or agency where Securities may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (the
“Registrar”) and an office or agency where Securities may be presented for payment (the “Paying Agent”). The Registrar shall keep a register of the Securities and of their transfer and 

  
 32 









 
exchange. The Company may have one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent and
“Registrar” includes any co-registrar. 
 The Company shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any
Registrar or Paying Agent not a party to this Indenture, which shall incorporate the terms of the TIA. The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent. The Company shall notify the Trustee of the
name and address of any such agent. If the Company fails to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefor pursuant to Section 7.07. The Company or any of
its domestic Wholly Owned Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent, Registrar or transfer agent. 
 The Company initially appoints
the Trustee as Registrar and Paying Agent in connection with the Securities. 
 Section 2.05 Paying Agent To Hold Money
in Trust. Prior to each due date of the principal and interest (including any Special Interest) on any Security, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such principal and interest so becoming due. The
Company shall require each Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to agree in writing that the Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of or interest
on the Securities and shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Company or any Guarantor in making any such payment. If the Company or a domestic Wholly Owned Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the money held by it as
Paying Agent and hold it as a separate trust fund. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed by the Paying Agent. Upon complying with this Section,
the Paying Agent (if other than the Company or a domestic Wholly Owned Subsidiary) shall have no further liability for the money delivered to the Trustee. 
 Section 2.06 Holder Lists. The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Holders and shall
otherwise comply with TIA Section 312(a). If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company on its own behalf and on the behalf of each of any Guarantors shall furnish to the Trustee, in writing at least five Business Days before each
interest payment date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of Holders and the Company and any Guarantors shall
otherwise comply with TIA Section 312(a). 
 Section 2.07 Replacement Securities. If a mutilated security is
surrendered to the Registrar or if the Holder of a Security claims that such Security has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Security if the requirements of
Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code (the “UCC”) are met and the Holder satisfies any other reasonable requirements of the Trustee. If required by the Trustee or the Company, such Holder shall furnish an indemnity bond
sufficient in the judgment of the Company and the Trustee to protect the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar and any co-registrar from any loss which any of them may suffer if a Security is replaced. The Company and the
Trustee may charge the Holder for their expenses in replacing a Security. 

  
 33 









 Every replacement Security is an additional obligation of the Company. 

Section 2.08 Outstanding Securities. Securities outstanding at any time are all Securities authenticated by the Trustee
except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation and those described in this Section as not outstanding. A Security does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the
Security. 
 If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee and the
Company receive proof satisfactory to them that the replaced Security is held by a protected purchaser pursuant to Section 8-303 of the UCC. 
 If the Paying Agent segregates and holds in trust, in accordance with this Indenture, on a redemption date or maturity date money sufficient to pay all principal and interest payable on that date with
respect to the Securities (or portions thereof) to be redeemed or maturing, as the case may be, and the Paying Agent is not prohibited from paying such money to the Holders on that date pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, then on and after that
date such Securities (or portions thereof) cease to be outstanding and interest, on them ceases to accrue. 
 Section 2.09
Temporary Securities. Until definitive Securities are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Securities. Temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of definitive Securities
but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Securities. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate definitive Securities and deliver them in exchange for temporary
Securities. After the preparation of definitive Securities, the temporary Securities shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities upon surrender of the temporary Securities at any office or agency maintained by the Company for that purpose
and such exchange shall be without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery in exchange
therefor, one or more definitive Securities representing an equal principal amount of Securities. Until so exchanged, the Holder of temporary Securities shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as a Holder of
definitive Securities. 
 Section 2.10 Cancellation. The Company at any time may deliver Securities to the Trustee
for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else shall cancel (subject to the record
retention requirements of the Exchange Act) all Securities surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation and deliver cancelled Securities to the Company upon a written direction of the Company. Except as expressly
permitted herein, the Company may not issue new Securities to replace Securities it has redeemed, paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 
 If the Company or any Guarantor acquires any of the Securities, such acquisition shall not operate as a redemption or satisfaction of the Indebtedness represented by such Securities unless and until the
same are surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation pursuant to this Section 2.10. The Company may not issue new Securities to replace Securities it has paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for any reason other than in
connection with a registration of transfer or exchange of such Securities. 

  
 34 









 At such time as all beneficial interests in a Global Security have either been exchanged for
definitive Securities, transferred, redeemed, repurchased or canceled, such Global Security shall be returned by DTC to the Trustee for cancellation or retained and canceled by the Trustee. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any
beneficial interest in a Global Security is exchanged for definitive Securities, transferred in exchange for an interest in another Global Security, redeemed, repurchased or canceled, the principal amount of Securities represented by such Global
Security shall be reduced and an adjustment shall be made on the books and records of the Trustee (if it is then the Securities Custodian for such Global Security) with respect to such Global Security, by the Trustee or the Securities Custodian, to
reflect such reduction. 
 Section 2.11 Defaulted Interest. If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on the
Securities, the Company shall pay the defaulted interest (plus interest on such defaulted interest at the rate borne by the Securities to the extent lawful) in any lawful manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of
defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Security and the date (not less than 30 days after such notice) of the proposed payment (the “Default Interest Payment Date”), and at the same time the Company 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 record date (the “Default Interest Record Date”) for the payment of such
defaulted interest, which date shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the Default Interest Payment Date 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 Company of such Default Interest Record Date, and in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such defaulted interest and the Default Interest Record Date and Default
Interest Payment Date therefor to be given in the manner provided for in Section 11.02, not less than 10 days prior to such Default Interest Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such defaulted interest and the Default Interest
Record Date and Default Interest Payment Date therefor having been so given, such defaulted interest shall be paid on the Default Interest Payment Date to the Persons in whose names the Securities (or their respective predecessor Securities) are
registered at the close of business on such Default Interest Record Date and shall no longer be payable. 
 The Company may make
payment of any defaulted interest in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by
the Company 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, 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. 
 Section 2.12 CUSIP
Numbers, Common Codes or ISINs. The Company in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP” numbers, “Common Codes” or “ISINs” (if then 

  
 35 









 
generally in use) and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers, “Common Codes” or “ISINs” in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders;
provided, however, that neither the Company nor the Trustee shall have any responsibility for any defect in the “CUSIP” number, “Common Code” or “ISIN” that appears on any Security, check, advice of
payment or redemption notice, and 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 Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the CUSIP
number, Common Code or ISIN. 
 Section 2.13 Computation of Interest. Interest on the Securities shall be computed
on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 
 ARTICLE III 

REDEMPTION 
 Section 3.01 Notices to Trustee. If the Company elects to redeem Securities pursuant to paragraph 5 of the Securities (as set forth in Appendix I to Exhibit A), it shall notify the
Trustee in writing of the redemption date, the principal amount of Securities to be redeemed, the redemption price and that such redemption is being made pursuant to paragraph 5 of the Securities. 

The Company shall give notice to the Trustee provided for in this Section 3.01 at least 45 days but not more than 60 days before the
redemption date unless the Trustee consents to a shorter period. Such notice shall be accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel from the Company to the effect that such redemption shall comply with the conditions
herein. 
 Section 3.02 Selection of Securities To Be Redeemed. If fewer than all the Securities are to be redeemed
at any time, not more than 60 days prior to the redemption date, the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed pro rata or by lot or by a method that complies with applicable legal and securities exchange requirements, if any, and that the
Trustee considers fair and appropriate and in accordance with methods generally used by it at the time of selection by fiduciaries in similar circumstances. The Trustee shall make the selection from outstanding Securities not previously called
for redemption. The Trustee may select for redemption portions of the principal of Securities that have denominations larger than $2,000. Securities and portions of them the Trustee selects shall be in amounts of $2,000 or whole multiples
of $1,000 in excess thereof. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to Securities called for redemption also apply to portions of Securities called for redemption. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of the Securities or
portions of Securities to be redeemed. 
 Section 3.03 Notice of Redemption. At least 30 days but not more than 60
days before a date for redemption of Securities, the Company shall mail a notice of redemption by first-class mail to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed at its registered address. 

The notice shall identify the Securities (or portion thereof) to be redeemed (including CUSIP numbers if any) and shall state:


  
 36 









 (a) the redemption date; 

(b) the redemption price; 
 (c) the name and address of the Paying Agent; 
 (d) that Securities called for
redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price; 
 (e) if fewer than all the outstanding
Securities are to be redeemed, or if a Security is to be redeemed in part only, the identification and principal amounts of the particular Securities (or portion thereof) to be redeemed; 

(f) that, unless the Company defaults in making such redemption payment or the Paying Agent is prohibited from making such payment
pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, interest on Securities (or portion thereof) called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date; and 
 (g) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Securities. 

At the Company’s written request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at the
Company’s expense. In such event, the Company shall provide the Trustee with the information required by this Section at least 45 days before the redemption date, unless the Trustee consents to a shorter period. 

Section 3.04 Effect of Notice of Redemption. Once notice of redemption is mailed, Securities called for redemption become due
and payable on the redemption date and at the redemption price stated in the notice. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such Securities shall be paid at the redemption price stated in the notice, plus accrued interest (including any Special
Interest) to the redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the related interest payment date that is on or prior to the date of redemption). Failure to give notice or any
defect in the notice to any Holder shall not affect the validity of the notice to any other Holder. 
 Section 3.05
Deposit of Redemption Price. Prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the redemption date, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or, if the Company or a domestic Wholly Owned Subsidiary is the Paying Agent, shall segregate
and hold in trust) money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest (including any Special Interest) (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest (including any Special Interest) due
on the related interest payment date that is on or prior to the date of redemption) on all Securities to be redeemed on that date other than Securities or portions of Securities called for redemption that have been delivered by the Company to the
Trustee for cancellation. 
 Section 3.06 Securities Redeemed in Part. Upon surrender of a Security that is redeemed
in part, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder (at the Company’s expense) a new Security equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Security surrendered.

 Section 4.01 Payment of Securities. The
Company shall promptly pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest (including any Special Interest) on the Securities, in immediately available funds, on the dates and in the manner provided in the Securities and in this
Indenture. Principal, premium, if any, and interest (including any Special Interest) shall be considered paid on the date due if on such date the Trustee or the Paying Agent holds in accordance with this Indenture money sufficient to pay all
principal, premium, if any, and interest then due and the Trustee or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, is not prohibited from paying such money to the Holders on that date pursuant to the terms of this Indenture. 

The Company shall pay interest on overdue principal at the rate specified therefore in the Securities, and it shall pay interest on
overdue installments of interest (including any Special Interest) at the rate borne by the Securities to the extent lawful. 

The Company and any Guarantors shall pay any present or future stamp, court or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes,
charges or similar levies that arise in any jurisdiction from the execution, delivery, enforcement or registration of the Securities, any Subsidiary Guarantees, this Indenture or any other document or instrument in relation thereof, or the receipt
of any payments with respect to the Securities or any Subsidiary Guarantees, excluding such taxes, charges or similar levies imposed by any jurisdiction outside of the United States, the jurisdiction of incorporation of any successor of the Company
or any Guarantor or any jurisdiction in which a Paying Agent is located, other than those resulting from, or required to be paid in connection with, the enforcement of the Securities, any Subsidiary Guarantees or any other such document or
instrument following the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Securities. The Company and any Guarantors shall indemnify the Holders for any such taxes paid by such Holders. 

Section 4.02 Existence. Subject to Article V, the Company shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve
and keep in full force and effect the existence and power and authority of the Company and any Guarantor; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to preserve any such existence and power and authority if the Company
shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole. 
 Section 4.03 Payment of Taxes and Other Claims. The Company shall pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged, before the same shall become delinquent, 

(a) all material taxes, assessments and governmental charges levied or imposed upon the Company or any Subsidiary or upon the income,
profits or property of the Company or any Subsidiary; and 
 (b) all material lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies,
which, if unpaid, might by law become a Lien upon the property of the Company or any Subsidiary that could produce a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition of the Company; provided, however, that the Company
shall not be required to pay or discharge or cause to be 

  
 38 









 
paid or discharged any such tax, assessment, charge or claim whose amount, applicability or validity is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings. 

Section 4.04 Maintenance of Properties. The Company shall cause all properties owned by the Company or any Subsidiary or
used or held for use in the conduct of its business or the business of any Subsidiary to be maintained and kept in good condition, repair and working order and supplied with all necessary equipment and shall cause to be made all necessary repairs,
renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements thereof, all as in the judgment of the Company may be necessary so that the business carried on in connection therewith may be properly and advantageously conducted at all times, except, in every
case, as and to the extent that the Company may be prevented by fire, strikes, lockouts, acts of God, inability to obtain labor or materials, governmental restrictions, enemy action, civil commotion or unavoidable casualty or similar causes beyond
the control of the Company; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 4.04 shall prevent the Company from discontinuing the maintenance of any such properties if such discontinuance is, in the judgment of the Company,
desirable in the conduct of its business or the business of any Subsidiary and not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders. 
 Section 4.05 Limitation on Consolidated Indebtedness. (a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, Incur any Indebtedness (other than Permitted
Indebtedness) unless as of the date such Indebtedness is Incurred, and after giving effect to the Incurrence of such Indebtedness and the application of proceeds therefrom on such date, each of the following conditions is satisfied: (1) the
Senior Leverage Ratio does not exceed 4.75 to 1.00; and (2) the Total Leverage Ratio does not exceed 5.75 to 1.00. 
 (b)
For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.05, in the event that an item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of one or more of the categories of Permitted Indebtedness or is entitled to be Incurred
pursuant to the ratios set forth in Section 4.05(a), the Company shall, in its sole discretion, classify or reclassify, or later divide, classify or reclassify, such item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) in any manner that complies with
this Section 4.05. 
 Section 4.06 Limitation on Restricted Payments. (a) The Company shall not, and shall

case without any increase in the principal amount thereof or any shortening of the maturity of any principal amount thereof. 

(c) The amount of all Restricted Payments (other than cash) shall be the Fair Market Value on the date of the Restricted Payment of the
asset(s) or securities proposed to be transferred or issued by the Company or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to the Restricted Payment, as determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and evidenced by

$5.0 million, unless: (i) such transaction or series of transactions is on terms that are no less favorable to the Company or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, than would be available at the time of such transaction or series of
transactions in a comparable transaction in an arm’s-length dealing with an unaffiliated third party; (ii) such transaction or series of transactions is in the best interests of the Company; and (iii) with respect to a transaction or
series of transactions involving aggregate payments equal to or greater than $50.0 million, a majority of disinterested members of the Board of Directors determines that such transaction or series of transactions complies with clauses (i) and
(ii) above, as evidenced by a Board Resolution. 
 (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing limitation, the Company and its
Subsidiaries may enter into or suffer to exist the following: 

  
 42 









 (i) any transaction pursuant to any contract in existence on the Issue
Date; 
 (ii) any Restricted Payment permitted to be made pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.06;

 (iii) any transaction or series of transactions between the Company and one or more of its Subsidiaries or
between two or more of its Subsidiaries (provided that no more than 5% of the equity interest in any such Subsidiary is owned, directly or indirectly (other than by direct or indirect ownership of an equity interest in the Company), by any
Affiliate of the Company other than a Subsidiary); 
 (iv) the payment of compensation (including amounts paid
pursuant to employee benefit plans) for the personal services of, and indemnity provided on behalf of, officers, directors and employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or of Holdings; and 

(v) the existence of, or the performance by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of its obligations under the terms of,
any agreements that are described in Holdings’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 30, 2010 and any amendments thereto; provided, however, that the existence of, or the performance by the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries of its obligations under, any future amendment to such agreements shall only be permitted by this clause (v) to the extent that, as determined by the Board of Directors, the terms of any such amendment, taken as a whole,
are not more disadvantageous to the Holders of the Securities in any material respect than the terms of such agreements in effect on the Issue Date. 
 Section 4.09 Limitation on Liens Securing Indebtedness. The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, Incur or suffer to
exist any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) upon any of its property or assets (including Capital Stock of Subsidiaries of the Company), whether owned on the date of this Indenture or acquired after that date, which Lien is securing any
Indebtedness, unless contemporaneously with the Incurrence of such Liens effective provision is made to secure the Indebtedness due under this Indenture and the Securities or, in respect of Liens on any Guarantor’s property or assets, any
Subsidiary Guarantee of such Subsidiary, equally and ratably with (or prior to in the case of Liens with respect to Subordinated Obligations or Guarantor Subordinated Obligations) the Indebtedness secured by such Lien for so long as such
Indebtedness is so secured. 
 Section 4.10 Limitation on Asset Sales. (a) The Company shall not, and shall not
permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, consummate an Asset Sale unless: 
 (i) the Company
(or such Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives consideration at the time of the Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value, as determined by the Board of Directors, of the assets or the Capital Stock subject to such Asset Sale; and


  
 43 









 (ii) at least 75% of the consideration received in the Asset Sale by the
Company or such Subsidiary is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents; provided that for purposes of this clause (ii), each of the following shall be deemed to be cash: 

(1) any liabilities, as shown on the most recent consolidated balance sheet (including the footnotes) available for the
Company and its Subsidiaries (other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Securities or any Subsidiary Guarantee) that are assumed by the transferee of such assets and from which the Company and its
Subsidiaries are unconditionally released in writing by all creditors with respect to such liabilities; 
 (2)
any securities, notes or other obligations, instruments, or assets received by the Company or such Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted within 180 days after receipt thereof by the Company or such Subsidiary into cash or Cash
Equivalents, to the extent of the cash or Cash Equivalents received in that conversion; and 
 (3) any
Designated Non-Cash Consideration received by the Company or such Subsidiary in such Asset Sale having an aggregate Fair Market Value, as determined by the Board of Directors, taken together with all other Designated Non-Cash Consideration received
pursuant to this clause (iii) that is at the time outstanding, not to exceed 5.0% of Consolidated Total Assets 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. 
 (b) Within 450
days after the receipt of any Net Cash Proceeds from an Asset Sale, the Company (or the applicable Subsidiary, as the case may be) may, at its option, apply such Net Cash Proceeds to: 

(i) repay, prepay, purchase, redeem or otherwise retire (a) Indebtedness under Credit Facilities or other Senior
Indebtedness, in each case that is secured by a Lien permitted under this Indenture (and, if the Indebtedness repaid is Indebtedness under a Revolving Credit Facility, to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto), or
(b) Indebtedness of a Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor, in each case other than Indebtedness owed to the Company or an Affiliate of the Company; or 
 (ii) to acquire, construct, replace, improve or repair assets useful in the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s business. 
 (c) Pending the final application of any Net Cash Proceeds, the Company (or such Subsidiary, as the case may be) may, at its option, (1) apply the Net Cash Proceeds to temporarily reduce Indebtedness
outstanding under any Revolving Credit Facility of 

  
 44 









 
the Company or any Subsidiary, or (2) otherwise invest or apply the Net Cash Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by this Indenture. 

(d) Any Net Cash Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in the second paragraph of this
Section 4.10 shall constitute “Excess Proceeds.” Within 30 days following the date on which the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $25.0 million, the Company shall make an offer (an “Asset Sale Offer”)
to all holders of Securities (the “Note Asset Sale Offer”), and, if required by the terms thereof, an offer to all holders of any other Indebtedness which ranks pari passu in right of payment with the Securities containing
provisions similar to those set forth in this Indenture with respect to offers to purchase or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets (such Indebtedness, the “Pari Passu Indebtedness” and, such offer, the “Pari Passu Asset Sale
Offer”), to purchase, on a pro rata basis (with Excess Proceeds pro rated between the Holders and such holders of such Pari Passu Indebtedness based upon the respective outstanding aggregate principal amounts (or accreted value, as
applicable) on the date the Note Asset Sale Offer and the Pari Passu Asset Sale Offer, respectively, are made), the maximum principal amount of the Securities and the maximum principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) of such Pari Passu
Indebtedness that may be purchased out of the respective pro rata amounts of Excess Proceeds. To the extent that the aggregate principal amount of Securities or the aggregate principal amount (or accreted value, if applicable) of such Pari Passu
Indebtedness tendered into the Note Asset Sale Offer and the Pari Passu Asset Sale Offer, respectively, is less than the principal amount of Securities or the principal amount (or accreted value, if applicable) of such Pari Passu Indebtedness
offered to be purchased in the Note Asset Sale Offer or the Pari Passu Asset Sale Offer, respectively, the Company and its Subsidiaries may use those remaining Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture. If the
aggregate principal amount of Securities or the aggregate principal amount (or accreted value, if applicable) of such Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered into the Note Asset Sale Offer or the Pari Passu Asset Sale Offer, respectively, exceeds the
respective pro rata amounts of Excess Proceeds, the applicable trustee shall select such Securities or such other Pari Passu Indebtedness, as the case may be, to be purchased on a pro rata basis. 

(e) The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer shall be equal to 100% of principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of
purchase (the “Asset Sale Payment Date”) (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date), and shall be payable in cash. Upon completion of each Asset
Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero. 
 (f) If any non-cash consideration received by the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, in connection with any Asset Sale is converted into or sold or otherwise disposed of for cash, then such conversion or disposition, at the time of such conversion or disposition, shall be subject to
the provisions of this Section 4.10 (subject to the proviso of the definition of “Asset Sale”). 
 (g) The
Company’s obligation to make an offer to repurchase the Securities as a result of an Asset Sale may be waived or modified at any time prior to the occurrence of such Asset Sale with the written consent of the holders of a majority in principal
amount of the Securities, as set forth in Section 9.02. 

  
 45 









 (h) In the event that the Company makes an Asset Sale Offer to purchase the Securities
pursuant to this Section 4.10, the Company shall comply with any applicable securities laws and regulations, including any applicable requirements of Section 14(e) of, and Rule 14e-1 under, the Exchange Act. 

Section 4.11 Future Guarantors. After the Issue Date, the Company shall cause each Subsidiary which guarantees
obligations under the Credit Agreement or any other Indebtedness of the Company or any Guarantor to execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture pursuant to which such Subsidiary shall unconditionally Guarantee, on a joint and several
basis, the full and prompt payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest (including any Special Interest), if any, on the Securities on a senior unsecured basis. Each Subsidiary Guarantee shall be limited to an amount not to exceed the
maximum amount that can be guaranteed by that Subsidiary without rendering the Subsidiary Guarantee as it relates to such Subsidiary, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting
the rights of creditors generally. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Guarantor is released and discharged in full from its obligations under its Guarantees of (a) the Credit Agreement and related documentation and (b) all other
Indebtedness of the Company and any Guarantor, then the Subsidiary Guarantee of such Guarantor shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged. 
 Section 4.12 Change of Control. Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Company shall be required to make an offer (a “Change of Control Offer”) to purchase all
outstanding Securities at a purchase price (the “Change of Control Purchase Price”) equal to 101% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest (including any Special Interest), if any, to the date of purchase (subject
to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date). 

Within 30 days following the date upon which the Change of Control occurred, the Company must send, by first class mail, a notice to each
Holder, with a copy to the Trustee, which notice shall govern the terms of the Change of Control Offer. Such notice shall state, among other things, the purchase date, which must be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date
such notice is mailed, other than as may be required by law (the “Change of Control Payment Date”). The Change of Control Offer is required to remain open for at least 20 Business Days and until the close of business on the
Change of Control Payment Date. 
 In the event that the Company makes a Change of Control Offer to purchase the Securities
pursuant to this Section 4.12, the Company shall comply with any applicable securities laws and regulations, including any applicable requirements of Section 14(e) of, and Rule 14e-1 under, the Exchange Act. 

Section 4.13 Provision of Financial Information. 
 (a) Following the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement (or the effectiveness of a Shelf Registration Statement in lieu thereof, if such Shelf
Registration Statement is so required by the Registration Rights Agreement), and whether or not the Company is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company shall file with the SEC and provide the
Trustee and the Holders with such annual reports and such information, documents and other 

  
 46 









 
reports as are specified in Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act and applicable to a U.S. corporation subject to such Sections, such information, documents and reports to be so filed
and provided at the times specified for the filing of such information, documents and reports under such Sections; provided, however, that the Company shall not be so obligated to file such information, documents and reports with the
SEC if the SEC does not permit such filings but shall still be obligated to provide such information, documents and reports to the Trustee and the Holders. Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational
purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from any information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its
covenants under this Indenture (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates). 
 (b)
Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the consummation of the exchange offer contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement (or the effectiveness of a shelf registration statement in lieu thereof, if such shelf registration statement is so
required by the Registration Rights Agreement), the Company shall provide the Trustee and Holders with the financial information that would have been required to be included in an annual or quarterly report, as applicable, as specified in Sections
13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act and required to be filed with the SEC by a U.S. corporation subject to such Sections (including a “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” section), in
each case within 15 days after the Company would have been required to file such annual or quarterly report with the SEC. 

(c) In addition, if Additional Securities are issued pursuant to Rule 144A of the Securities Act, unless the Company is then subject to
the reporting requirements of Section 13(d) or 15 of the Exchange Act, the Company shall, upon request, furnish to any prospective purchaser of Securities or beneficial owner of Securities in connection with any sale thereof the
information required by Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act, until such time as the Company has either exchanged the Securities for the Exchange Securities or until such time as the Holders thereof have disposed of such Securities
pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement. 
 (d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, for purposes of
Section 6.01(d), the Company shall not be deemed to have failed to comply with its obligations under Section 4.13(a) or 4.13(b) to file with the SEC and/or provide the Trustee and Holders with information, documents and reports until 120
days after the date such information, document or report is required to be so filed with the SEC or provided to the Trustee and Holders, respectively, pursuant to Section 4.13(a) or 4.13(b). 

Section 4.14 Statement as to Compliance. The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 90 days after the end of each
fiscal year ending after the date hereof (the fiscal year as of the date hereof is the 52/53 week period ending on the first Thursday after December 25), a brief certificate of its principal executive officer, principal financial officer or
principal accounting officer stating whether, to such officer’s knowledge, the Company is in compliance with all covenants and conditions to be complied with by it under this Indenture in accordance with TIA Section 314(a)(4). For
purposes of this Section 4.14, such compliance shall be determined without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice under this Indenture. 

  
 47 









 When a Default has occurred and is continuing or if the Trustee, any Holder or the trustee
for or the Holder of any other evidence of Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary gives any notice or takes any other action with respect to a claimed Default, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate specifying
such Default, notice or other action within 10 Business Days of its occurrence. 
 Section 4.15 Waiver of Certain
Covenants. The Company may omit in any particular instance to comply with any covenant or condition set forth in Sections 4.03 to 4.12 and Sections 4.13(a) and (b), if before the time for such compliance, the Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time outstanding shall, by written direction of such Holders, waive such compliance in such instance with such covenant or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such covenant or
condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such covenant or condition shall remain in full force and effect.

 Section 4.16 Further Instruments and Acts. Upon request of the Trustee, the Company shall execute and
deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purpose of this Indenture. 
 Section 4.17 Payment for Consent. The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration, whether by way
of interest, fee or otherwise, to any Holder for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture or the Securities unless that consideration is offered to be paid or is paid to all Holders
that consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating to the consent, waiver or agreement. 
 ARTICLE V 
 SUCCESSOR COMPANY 

Section 5.01 Consolidation. The Company shall not, in a single transaction or through a series of related transactions,
consolidate with or merge with or into any other Person (other than any Wholly Owned Subsidiary) or sell, assign, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person (other than any Wholly
Owned Subsidiary) or group of affiliated Persons unless at the time and after giving effect thereto:

of Columbia and shall, in either case, expressly assume all the Obligations of the Company under the Securities and this Indenture and its obligations under any Registration Rights Agreement;

 (d) each Guarantor, if any (unless it is the other party to

 Section 6.02 Acceleration; Rescission and
Annulment. (a) If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(h), (i) or (j)) shall occur and be continuing, then and in every such case the Trustee, by notice to the Company, or the Holders
of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities outstanding, by notice to the Company and the Trustee, may declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest (including any Special Interest), if any, on
all the Securities to be due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(h), (i) or (j) shall occur and is continuing, then the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest (including any
Special Interest), if any, on, all the Securities shall automatically become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 10
days after the occurrence thereof, notice of any default or acceleration referred to in Sections 6.01(d) and 6.01(e). 

(b) At any time after a declaration of acceleration has been made, but before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been
obtained by the Trustee as provided hereinafter in this Article VI, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and
its consequences if: 
 (i) the Company has paid or deposited, or caused to be paid or deposited, with the
Trustee a sum sufficient to pay: 

  
 51 









 (A) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee under this Indenture and the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel; 
 (B) all
overdue interest (including Special Interest, if any) on all Securities; 
 (C) the principal of (and premium,
if any, on) any Securities that has become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and interest thereon at the rate borne by the Securities; and 
 (D) to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue interest (including any Special Interest) at the rate borne by the Securities; and 

(ii) all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of principal of the Securities which have become due solely by
such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 6.04. 
 No such rescission shall affect
any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
 (c) Notwithstanding Section 6.02(b), in the event of a
declaration of acceleration in respect of the Securities because an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(e) shall have occurred and be continuing, such declaration of acceleration shall be automatically annulled if the Indebtedness
that is the subject of such Event of Default (i) is Indebtedness in the form of an operating lease entered into by the Company or its Subsidiaries after May 21, 1998 and required to be reflected on a consolidated balance sheet
pursuant to EITF 97-10 or any subsequent pronouncement having similar effect, (ii) has been discharged or the holders thereof have rescinded their declaration of acceleration in respect of such Indebtedness, and (iii) written notice of
such discharge or rescission, as the case may be, shall have been given to the Trustee by the Company and countersigned by the holders of such Indebtedness or a trustee, fiduciary or agent for such holders, within 30 days after such declaration of
acceleration in respect of the Securities, and no other Event of Default has occurred during such 30-day period which has not been cured or waived during such period. 
 Section 6.03 Other Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal of or interest on the
Securities or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Securities or this Indenture. 
 The Trustee may maintain a
proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Securities or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not
impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. No remedy is exclusive of any other remedy. All available remedies are cumulative. 

  
 52 









 Section 6.04 Waiver of Past Defaults. Subject to Section 6.02, the
Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may waive an existing Default and its consequences except (a) a Default in the payment of the principal of or interest on a
Security, (b) a Default arising from a failure to make or consummate a Change of Control Offer in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.12, or (c) a Default in respect of a provision that under Section 9.02 cannot be
amended without the consent of each Holder affected. When a Default is waived, it is deemed cured, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any consequent right. 

Section 6.05 Control by Majority. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then
outstanding may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Securities. However, the Trustee may refuse
to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or, subject to Section 7.01, that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders or would involve the Trustee in personal liability;
provided, however, that subject to Section 315 of the TIA, the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction. Prior to taking any action hereunder, the Trustee
shall be entitled to reasonable indemnification against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action. 

Section 6.06 Limitation on Suits. A Holder may not pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Securities
unless: 
 (a) such Holder shall have previously given to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default;

 (b) the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding shall have made a written
request, and such Holder of or Holders shall have offered indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense, to pursue such proceeding as trustee; and 

(c) the Trustee has failed to institute such proceeding and has not received from the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Securities outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request, within 60 days after such notice, request and offer. 
 The foregoing limitations on the pursuit of remedies by a Holder shall not apply to a suit instituted by a Holder of Securities for the enforcement of payment of the principal of or interest on such
Security on or after the applicable due date specified in such Security. A Holder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder. 

Section 6.07 Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of
any Holder to receive payment of principal of and interest on the securities held by such Holder, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Securities, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective
dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.

 Section 6.08 Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default specified
in Section 6.01(a) or (b) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company for the whole amount then due and owing (together with interest on any unpaid
interest to the extent lawful) and the amounts provided for in Section 7.07. 
 Section 6.09 Trustee May File
Proofs of Claim. The Trustee may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the
Company, its creditors or its property and, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, may vote on behalf of the Holders in any election of a trustee in bankruptcy or other Person performing similar functions, and any Custodian in any such
judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07. 
 Section 6.10 Priorities. If the Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article VI, it shall pay out the money or property in the following order: 

FIRST: to the Trustee for amounts due under Section 7.07; 
 SECOND: to Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the securities for principal and interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Securities
for principal and interest respectively; and 
 THIRD: to the Company. 

The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section. At least 15 days before such
record date, the Company shall mail to each Holder and the Trustee a notice that states the record date, the payment date and amount to be paid. 
 Section 6.11 Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as
Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees,
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 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to
Section 6.07 or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities. 
 Section 6.12
Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. The Company (to the extent it may lawfully do so) shall not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever
enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and
shall not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power 

  
 54 









 
herein granted to the Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted. 

ARTICLE VII 
 TRUSTEE 
 Section 7.01 Duties of
Trustee. (a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent Person would
exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such Person’s own affairs. 
 (b) Except during the continuance
of an Event of Default: 
 (i) the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are
specifically set forth in this Indenture and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and 
 (ii) in the absence of 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 (but need not confirm
or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein). 
 (c) The Trustee may not be relieved
from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except that: 
 (i) this subsection (c) does not limit the effect of subsection (b) of this Section; 
 (ii) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Trust Officer unless it is proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and 

(iii) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance
with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.05. 
 (d) Every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates

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

  
 55 









 (g) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own
funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers. 
 (h) Every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section and to the
provisions of the TIA, and the provisions of this Article VII shall apply to the Trustee in its role as Registrar, Paying Agent and Security Custodian. 
 (i) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of a Default or an Event of Default unless (a) the Trustee has received written notice thereof from the Company or any Holder or (b) a Trust
Officer shall have actual knowledge thereof. 
 (j) Except with respect to Section 4.01, the Trustee shall have no duty to
inquire as to the performance of the Company with respect to the covenants contained in Article 4. In addition, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of an Event of Default except (i) any Default or Event of Default occurring
pursuant to Sections 4.01, 6.01(a) or 6.01(b) or (ii) any Default or Event of Default of which the Trustee shall have received written notification or obtained actual knowledge. 

Section 7.02 Rights of Trustee. Subject to 315(a) through 315(d) of the TIA: 

(a) The Trustee may rely on any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper person. The
Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document. The Trustee may, however, in its discretion make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit and, if the Trustee shall determine to
make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney. 
 (b) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it shall be entitled to receive an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes
or omits to take in good faith in reliance on the Officers’ Certificate or Opinion of Counsel. 
 (c) The Trustee may act
through agents and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent appointed with due care. 
 (d) 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; provided, however, that the Trustee’s conduct does not constitute willful
misconduct or negligence. 
 (e) The Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection, and the advice or opinion of counsel
with respect to legal matters relating to this Indenture and the Securities shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect to any action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance
with the advice or opinion of such counsel. 

  
 56 









 (f) The permissive rights of the Trustee to do things enumerated in this Indenture shall
not be construed as a duty unless so specified herein. 
 Section 7.03 Individual Rights of Trustee. The
Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliate with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Paying Agent, Registrar or
co-registrar may do the same with like rights. However, the Trustee must comply with Sections 7.10 and 7.11. 

Section 7.04 Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the
validity, priority or adequacy of this Indenture or the Securities, it shall not be accountable for the Company’s use of the proceeds from the Securities, and it shall not be responsible for any statement of the Company in this Indenture or in
any document issued in connection with the sale of the Securities or in the Securities other than the Trustee’s certificate of authentication. 
 Section 7.05 Notice of Defaults. If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if it is known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder notice of the Default
or Event of Default within 90 days after it is known to a Trust Officer or written notice of it is received by the Trustee. Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of or interest on any Security, the Trustee
may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Trust Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Holders. 
 Section 7.06 Reports by Trustee to Holders. As promptly as practicable after each December 31 beginning with December 31, 2011, and in any event prior to March 31 in each
year thereafter, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder a brief report dated as of March 31 each year that complies with TIA Section 313(a), if and to the extent required by such subsection. The Trustee shall also comply with TIA
Section 313(b) and (c). 
 A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to Holders shall be filed with the SEC and
each stock exchange (if any) on which the Securities are listed. The Company agrees to notify promptly the Trustee whenever the Securities become listed on any stock exchange and of any delisting thereof. 

Section 7.07 Compensation and Indemnity. The Company shall pay to the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee from time to
time such compensation for its services as shall from time to time be agreed to in writing by the Company and the Trustee. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express
trust. The Company shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the
reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee’s agents, counsel, accountants and experts. The Company shall indemnify the Trustee against any and all loss, liability or expense (including reasonable
attorneys’ fees) incurred by it in connection with the acceptance and administration of this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek
indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder. The Company shall defend the claim and the Trustee may have separate counsel and the Company shall pay the fees and


  
 57 









 
expenses of such counsel. The Company need not reimburse any expenses or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Trustee through the Trustee’s own willful
misconduct, negligence or bad faith. The Company need not pay for any settlement made by the Trustee without the Company’s consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. All indemnifications and releases from liability granted
hereunder to the Trustee shall extend to its officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns. 
 To secure the
Company’s obligations in this Section, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee other than money or property held in trust to pay principal of and interest on particular
Securities. 
 The Company’s obligations pursuant to this Section shall survive the resignation or removal of the
Trustee and the discharge of this Indenture. When the Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 6.01(h), (i) or (j) with respect to the Company, the expenses are intended to constitute
expenses of administration under the Bankruptcy Law. 
 The provisions of this Section shall survive the resignation or
removal of the Trustee and the termination of this Indenture. 
 Section 7.08 Replacement of Trustee. The Trustee
may resign at any time by so notifying the Company. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and may appoint a successor Trustee. The
Company shall remove the Trustee if: 
 (a) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10; 

(b) the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent; 
 (c) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or 
 (d) the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting. 
 If the Trustee resigns,
is removed by the Company or by the Holders a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding and such Holders do not reasonably promptly appoint a successor Trustee, or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any
reason (the Trustee in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Trustee), the Company shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. 
 A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. 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. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all
property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the lien provided for in Section 7.07. 

  
 58 









 If a successor Trustee does not take office within 30 days after the retiring Trustee
resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee or the Holders of 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 

If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months
may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee. 

Notwithstanding the replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section, the Company’s obligations under Section 7.07 shall
continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee. 
 Section 7.09 Successor Trustee by Merger. If the Trustee
consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation or banking association
without any further act shall be the successor Trustee. In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture any of the Securities shall
have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver such Securities so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Securities shall
not have been authenticated; any such successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Securities either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the
full force which it is anywhere in the Securities or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have. 
 Section 7.10 Eligibility; Disqualification. The Trustee shall at all times satisfy the requirements of TIA Section 310(a). The Trustee shall have (or, in the case of a
corporation included in a bank holding company system, the related bank holding company shall have) a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 as set forth in its (or its related bank holding company’s) most recent published annual
report of condition. The Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 310(b), subject to the penultimate paragraph thereof; provided, however, that there shall be excluded from the operation of TIA Section 310(b)(1) any
indenture or indentures under which other securities or certificates of interest or participation in other securities of the Company are outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in TIA Section 310(b)(1) are met.

 Section 7.11 Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company. The Trustee shall comply with TIA
Section 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA Section 311(b): A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA Section 311(a) to the extent indicated. 

ARTICLE VIII 
 DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE; DEFEASANCE 
 Section 8.01 Discharge
of Liability on Securities; Defeasance. (a) When (i) either (A) all outstanding Securities that have been authenticated (other than Securities replaced pursuant to Section 2.07 and Securities for whose payment money has
been deposited in 

  
 59 









 
trust and thereafter repaid to the Company) have been delivered by the Company to the Trustee for cancellation or (B) all outstanding Securities that have not been delivered by the Company
to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable, whether at Maturity or upon redemption or will become due and payable within one year or are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee as
trust for the giving of notice of redemption pursuant to Article III and the Company irrevocably deposits or causes to be deposited with the Trustee funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. Dollars, non-callable
Government Securities, or a combination of cash in U.S. Dollars and non-callable Government Securities, in amounts as shall be sufficient without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on such
Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium, and Special Interest, if any, and accrued interest (including Special Interest, if any) to the date of Maturity or redemption; (ii) no Default or Event
of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or shall occur as a result of such deposit and such deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other instrument to which the
Company or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Company or any Guarantor is bound; (iii) the Company or any Guarantor has paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by it under this Indenture and the Securities; and (iv) the Company
has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee under this Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment of such Securities at Maturity or at the redemption date, as the case may be, then upon demand of the Company (accompanied by
an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent specified herein relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with) this Indenture shall cease to be of
further effect with respect to the Securities and the Trustee shall acknowledge satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, at the cost and expense of the Company. 
 (b) Subject to Sections 8.01(c) and 8.02, the Company may, at its option, and at any time elect to terminate (i) all of its and any Guarantors’ obligations under the Securities, any
Subsidiary Guarantees and this Indenture (“legal defeasance option”) or (ii) its and any Guarantors’ obligations under Section 5.01(c) and Sections 4.05, 4.06, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, and 4.13(a) and
(b) and the operation of Section 6.01(c) (with respect to a Event of Default due to a failure to meet obligations under Section 5.01(c)) and Sections 6.01(d), (e), (f) and (g) (“covenant defeasance
option”). The Company may exercise its legal defeasance option notwithstanding its prior exercise of its covenant defeasance option. 
 If the Company exercises its legal defeasance option, payment of the Securities may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default. If the Company exercises its covenant defeasance option, payment
of the Securities may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in Sections 6.01(d) (with respect to Sections 4.05, 4.06, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13(a) and (b) and 5.01(c)), (e), (f) or (g). 

Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein and upon request of the Company, the Trustee shall acknowledge in writing the
discharge of those obligations that the Company terminates. 
 (c) Notwithstanding subsections (a) and (b) above, the
Company’s obligations in Sections 2.03, 2.04, 2.05, 2.06, 2.07, 2.08, 2.09, 4.01, 4.02, 4.03, 4.04, 4.13(c), 

  
 60 









 4.14, 7.07, 7.08, 8.03, 8.04, 8.05 and 8.06 shall survive until the Securities have been paid in
full. Thereafter, the Company’s obligations in Sections 7.07, 8.04, 8.05 and 8.06 shall survive. 
 Section 8.02
Conditions to Defeasance. The Company may exercise its legal defeasance option or its covenant defeasance option only if: 
 (a) The Company shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee (or another trustee satisfying the requirements of Section 7.10 who shall agree to comply with the
provisions of this Article VIII applicable to it) as trust funds in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities, cash in U.S. Dollars, non-callable Government Securities or a combination thereof, in such amounts as shall be
sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent 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 other qualifying
trustee) to pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest (including any Special Interest) on the outstanding Securities on the Stated Maturity (or redemption date, if applicable) of such principal (and premium, if any) or installment of
interest; provided that the Trustee shall have been irrevocably instructed to apply such money or the proceeds of such Government Securities to said payments with respect to the Securities; before such a deposit, the Company may give the
Trustee, in accordance with Section 3.01, a notice of its election to redeem all of the outstanding Securities at a future date in accordance with Article III, which notice shall be irrevocable; 

(b) No Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or, insofar as
Section 6.01(h), (i) or (j) is concerned, at any time during the period ending on the 91st day after the date of such deposit (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until the expiration of such period);

 (c) the deposit does not constitute a default hereunder or under any other material agreement binding on the Company;

 (d) the Company delivers to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the trust resulting from the deposit does
not constitute, or is qualified as, a regulated investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940; 
 (e) in the case
of the legal defeasance option, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that (i) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (ii) since the
date of this Indenture there has been a change in the applicable U.S. Federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for
U.S. Federal income tax purposes as a result of such legal defeasance and will be subject to U.S. Federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such defeasance had not occurred;

 (f) in the case of the covenant defeasance option, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to
the effect that the Holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. Federal income tax purposes as a result of such covenant defeasance and will be subject to U.S. Federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same


  
 61 









 
manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such covenant defeasance had not occurred; and 
 (g) the Company delivers to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent to the defeasance and discharge of the Securities as
contemplated by this Article VIII have been complied with. 
 Section 8.03 Application of Trust Money.

shall apply the deposited money and the money from Government Securities through the Paying Agent and in accordance with this Indenture to the payment of principal of and interest on the Securities. 

Section 8.04 Repayment to Company. The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall promptly turn over to the Company upon request
any excess money or securities held by them at any time. 
 Subject to any applicable abandoned property law, the Trustee and
the Paying Agent shall pay to the Company upon request any money held by them for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest that remains unclaimed for two years, and, thereafter, Holders entitled to the money must look to the Company
for payment as general creditors. 
 Section 8.05 Indemnity for Government Obligations. The Company shall pay
and shall indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against deposited Government Securities or the principal and interest received on such Government Securities. 

Section 8.06 Reinstatement. If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Government Securities in
accordance with this Article VIII by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Company’s obligations
under this Indenture and the Securities shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article VIII until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or Government Securities in
accordance with this Article VIII; provided, however, that, if the Company has made any payment of interest on or principal of any Securities because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the
rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money or Government Securities held by the Trustee or Paying Agent. 
 ARTICLE IX 
 AMENDMENTS 

Section 9.01 Without Consent of Holders. The Company, any Guarantors and the Trustee may amend this Indenture or the
Securities or the Guarantees without notice to or consent of any Holder: 
 (a) to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or
inconsistency; 

  
 62 









 (b) to comply with Article V; 

(c) to provide for uncertificated Securities in addition to or in place of certificated Securities; provided, however,
that the uncertificated Securities are issued in registered form for purposes of Section 163(f) of Title 26 of the United States Code or in a manner such that the uncertificated Securities are described in Section 163(f)(2)(B) of
Title 26 of the United States Code; 
 (d) to add additional Guarantees with respect to the Securities or to secure the
Securities; 
 (e) to add to the covenants of the Company for the benefit of the Holders or to surrender any right or power
herein conferred upon the Company; 
 (f) to comply with any requirements of the SEC in connection with qualifying, or
maintaining the qualification of, this Indenture under the TIA; or 
 (g) to make any change that does not adversely affect the
rights of any Holder. 
 After an amendment under this Section becomes effective, the Company shall mail to Holders a
notice briefly describing such amendment. The failure to give such notice to all Holders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section. 

Section 9.02 With Consent of Holders. The Company, any Guarantors and the Trustee may modify or amend this Indenture or
the Securities or the Guarantees without notice to any Holder but with the written consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding (including consents obtained in connection with a
tender offer or exchange offer for the Securities). However, without the consent of each Holder affected thereby, a modification or amendment may not: 
 (a) change the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any installment of interest (including Special Interest) on, any Security, or reduce the principal amount thereof or the rate of interest (including
Special Interest, if any) thereon or any premium payable upon the redemption thereof, or change the coin or currency in which the principal of any Security or any premium or the interest (including Special Interest) thereon is payable, or impair the
right to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment after the Stated Maturity thereof (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the redemption date); 
 (b) reduce the amount of, or change the coin or currency of, or impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of, the Change of Control Purchase Price; 

(c) reduce the percentage in principal amount of the outstanding Securities, the consent of whose Holders is required for any such
supplemental indenture, or the consent of whose Holders is required for any waiver (of compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture or certain defaults hereunder and their consequences) provided for in this Indenture; or 

  
 63 









 (d) modify any of the provisions of this Section or Sections 6.04, 6.07 and 4.15,
except to increase the percentage of outstanding Securities the consent of whose Holders is required for such actions or to provide that certain other provisions of this Indenture cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of
each Security affected thereby. 
 It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section to approve
the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. 

After an amendment under this Section becomes effective, the Company shall mail to Holders a notice briefly describing such
amendment. The failure to give such notice to all Holders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section. 
 Section 9.03 Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. Every amendment to this Indenture or the Securities shall comply with the TIA as then in effect. 

Section 9.04 Revocation and Effect of Consents and Waivers. A consent to an amendment or a waiver by a Holder of a
Security shall bind the Holder and every subsequent Holder of that Security or portion of the Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Security, even if notation of the consent or waiver is not made on the
Security. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent or waiver as to such Holder’s Security or portion of the Security if the Trustee receives the notice of revocation before the date the amendment or waiver
becomes effective. After an amendment or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder. An amendment or waiver becomes effective upon the execution of such amendment or waiver by the Trustee. 

The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to give their
consent or take any other action described above or required or permitted to be taken pursuant to this Indenture. Such record date shall be a date not more than 30 days prior to the first solicitation of Holders generally in connection
therewith and no later than the date such solicitation is completed. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the immediately preceding paragraph or Section 316(c) of the TIA, those Persons who were Holders at such record date
(or their duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to give such consent or to revoke any consent previously given or to take any such action, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record
date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 180 days after such record date. 
 For all purposes of
this Indenture, all Initial Securities, Additional Securities of the same series, Exchange Securities for the same series of Securities and Private Exchange Securities for the same series of Securities shall vote together as one series of Securities
under this Indenture. 
 Section 9.05 Notation on or Exchange of Securities. If an amendment changes the terms
of a Security, the Trustee may require the Holder of the Security to deliver such Security to the Trustee. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation on the Security regarding the changed terms and return such Security to the
Holder. Alternatively, if the Company or the 

  
 64 









 
Trustee so determines, the Company in exchange for the Security shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Security that reflects the changed terms. Failure to make the appropriate

 ARTICLE X 

GUARANTEES 
 Section 10.01 Subsidiary Guarantees. In the event that a Subsidiary is required to become a Guarantor pursuant to Section 4.11, then such Guarantor shall execute a supplement to this
Indenture pursuant to Section 10.02 and upon such execution shall become a party to this Indenture, will have all the rights and be subject to all of the obligations of a Guarantor under this Indenture and agrees to be bound by all of the
provisions of this Indenture applicable to a Guarantor, including this Article X and to perform all of the obligations and agreements of a Guarantor under this Indenture. 
 Subject to the provisions of this Article X, each Guarantor fully, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, jointly and severally with any other
Guarantor, to each Holder of the Securities and the Trustee, the full and punctual payment when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest (including Special Interest),
if any, on the Securities and all other obligations and liabilities of the Company under this Indenture (including without limitation interest accruing after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy, or the commencement of any insolvency,
reorganization or like proceeding, relating to the Company or any Guarantor whether or not a claim for post-filing or post-petition interest is allowed in such proceeding and the obligations under Section 7.07) (all the foregoing being
hereinafter collectively called the “Guarantor Obligations”). Each Guarantor agrees that any Guarantor Obligations shall rank equally in right of payment with other Indebtedness of such Guarantor, except to the extent such
other Indebtedness is subordinate to any Guarantor Obligations. Each Guarantor further agrees (to the extent permitted by law) that any Guarantor Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from
it, and that it will remain bound under this Article X notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Guarantor Obligation. 
 Each Guarantor waives presentation to, demand of payment from and protest to the Company of any Guarantor Obligations and also waives notice of protest for non-payment. Each Guarantor waives notice
of any default under the Securities or any Guarantor Obligations. 

  
 65 









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

Except as set forth in Section 10.02, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation,
impairment or termination for any reason (other than payment of any Guarantor Obligations in full), including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim,
recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any Guarantor Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor herein shall not
be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by (a) the failure of any Holder to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Company or any other person under, this Indenture, the Securities or any other
agreement or otherwise; (b) any extension or renewal granted; (c) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture, the Securities or any other agreement; (d) the release of any
security held by any Holder or the Trustee for any Guarantor Obligations or any of them; (e) the failure of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy against any other Guarantor; (f) any change in the ownership of the Company;
(g) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of any Guarantor Obligations; or (h) any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent
vary the risk of any Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of such Guarantor as a matter of law or equity. 

Subject to the provisions of Section 4.11, each Guarantor agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee herein shall remain in full force and
effect until payment in full of all Guarantor Obligations or such Guarantor is released from its Subsidiary Guarantee in compliance with Section 10.03. Each Guarantor further agrees that its Guarantee herein shall continue to be effective
or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of or interest on any Guarantor Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company
or otherwise. 
 In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder has at law or in
equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Company to pay any Guarantor Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, each Guarantor hereby promises
to and will, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustee, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Holders an amount equal to the sum of (i) the unpaid amount of such Guarantor Obligations then due and owing and (ii) accrued
and unpaid interest on such Guarantor Obligations then due and owing (but only to the extent not prohibited by law). 
 Each
Guarantor further agrees that, as between such Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Holders, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of any Guarantor Obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in this Indenture for the purposes of
its Subsidiary Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of any Guarantor Obligations guaranteed hereby and (y) in the event of any such declaration of acceleration of
such Guarantor Obligations, such Guarantor Obligations 

  
 66 









 
(whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by any Guarantor for the purposes of its Subsidiary Guarantee. 

Each Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the
Trustee or the Holders in enforcing any rights under this Section. 
 Section 10.02 Execution and Delivery of Subsidiary
Guarantees. 
 To evidence its Subsidiary Guarantee, each Subsidiary that is required to become a Guarantor hereby agrees to
execute a supplement to this Indenture, substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto, and deliver it to the Trustee. Each such supplement to this Indenture shall be executed on behalf of the applicable Guarantor by either manual or facsimile
signature of one Officer or other person duly authorized by all necessary corporate action of such Guarantor who shall have been duly authorized to so execute by all requisite corporate action. The validity and enforceability of any Subsidiary
Guarantee shall not be affected by the fact that it is not affixed to any particular Security. 
 Each of the Guarantors, if
any, hereby agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Security a notation of such Subsidiary Guarantee. 

If an Officer of a Guarantor whose signature is on this Indenture or a Subsidiary Guarantee no longer holds that office at the time the
Trustee authenticates the Security on which such Subsidiary Guarantee is endorsed or at any time thereafter, such Guarantor’s Subsidiary Guarantee of such Security shall nevertheless be valid, 

The delivery of any Security by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of any Subsidiary
Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of each Guarantor. 
 Section 10.03 Limitation on Liability;
Termination, Release and Discharge. (a) Any term or provision of this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder will be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to all
other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor (including, without limitation, any Guarantees under the Credit Agreement) and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of
the obligations of such other Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee or pursuant to its contribution obligations under this Indenture, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent
conveyance or fraudulent transfer under federal or state law and not otherwise being void or voidable under any similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally. 
 (b) The Company shall not permit any Guarantor to consolidate with or merge with or into any person (other than another Guarantor) and shall not permit the conveyance, transfer or lease of substantially
all of the assets of any Guarantor unless: 

  
 67 









 (i) the resulting, surviving or transferee Person shall be a corporation,
partnership, trust or limited liability company organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State of the United States or the District of Columbia and such Person (if not such Guarantor) shall expressly assume, by
supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee, all the obligations of such Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee; 
 (ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction (and treating any Indebtedness that becomes an obligation of the resulting, surviving or transferee Person or any Subsidiary as a result of such
transaction as having been Incurred by such Person or such Subsidiary at the time of such transaction), no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; 

(iii) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each
stating that such consolidation, merger or transfer and such supplemental indenture (if any) comply with this Indenture; or 
 (iv) the transaction is made in compliance with Section 5.01 (other than clause (c) of Section 5.01). 
 Upon the sale or disposition of a Guarantor (by merger, consolidation, the sale of its Capital Stock or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets (other than by lease)) and whether or not such
Guarantor is the surviving corporation in such transaction to a Person which is not the Company or a Subsidiary, such Guarantor shall be automatically released from all its obligations under this Indenture and its Subsidiary Guarantee and the
Registration Rights Agreement and such Subsidiary Guarantee shall terminate; provided, however, that (1) no Default or Event of Default will have occurred or be continuing or would occur as a consequence of a release of the
obligations of such Guarantor; and (2) all the obligations of such Guarantor under the Credit Agreement and related documentation and any other obligations of such Guarantor relating to any Indebtedness of the Company or any Guarantor terminate
upon consummation of such transaction. 
 (c) Each Guarantor shall be deemed released from all its obligations under this
Indenture and the Registration Rights Agreement and such Subsidiary Guarantee shall terminate if all the conditions to legal defeasance set forth in Article VIII are satisfied in accordance herewith. 

(d) Each Subsidiary Guarantor shall be released from its obligations under this Indenture, its Subsidiary Guarantee and the Registration
Rights Agreement if the Company designates such Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary and such designation complies with the other applicable provisions of this Indenture. 
 Section 10.04 Right of Contribution. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that any Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made on the
obligations under any Subsidiary Guarantees, such Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against the Company, or any other Guarantor who has not paid its 

  
 68 









 
proportionate share of such payment. The provisions of this Section 10.04 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of each Guarantor to the Trustee and the Holders and
each Guarantor shall remain liable to the Trustee and the Holders for the full amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder. 

Section 10.05 No Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by each Guarantor hereunder, no Guarantor shall be
entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Trustee or any Holder against the Company or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Trustee or any Holder for the payment of any Guarantor
Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Company or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Trustee and the
Holders by the Company on account of any Guarantor Obligations are paid in full. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Guarantor Obligations shall not have been paid in
full, such amount shall be held by such Guarantor in trust for the Trustee and the Holders, segregated from other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to the Trustee in the exact form received
by such Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Guarantor to the Trustee, if required), to be applied against the Guarantor Obligations.

 A-5









 
Global Securities are then outstanding and the Global Security has not been previously exchanged for certificated securities pursuant to Section 2.4, the Company shall issue and the Trustee
shall authenticate, upon written order of the Company in the form of an Officers’ Certificate, a new Global Security in the appropriate principal amount. 
 (c) Transfer and Exchange of Global Securities. 
 (i) The transfer
and exchange of Global Securities or beneficial interests therein shall be effected through the Depository, in accordance with this Indenture (including applicable restrictions on transfer set forth herein, if any) and the procedures of the
Depository therefor. A transferor of a beneficial interest in a Global Security shall deliver a written order given in accordance with the Depository’s procedures containing information regarding the participant account of the Depository
to be credited with a beneficial interest in the Global Security and such account shall be credited in accordance with such instructions with a beneficial interest in the Global Security and the account of the Person making the transfer shall be
debited by an amount equal to the beneficial interest in the Global Security being transferred. Transfers by an owner of a beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Security to a transferee who takes delivery of such interest through the
Regulation S Global Security, whether before or after the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period, shall be made only upon receipt by the Trustee of a certification in the form provided on the reverse of the Initial Securities from the
transferor to the effect that such transfer is being made in accordance with Regulation S or (if available) Rule 144 under the Securities Act or pursuant to and in compliance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act other than
Rule 144, Rule 903 or Rule 904 and that, if such transfer is being made prior to the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period, the interest transferred shall be held immediately thereafter through Euroclear or Clearstream.

 (ii) If the proposed transfer is a transfer of a beneficial interest in one Global Security to a beneficial interest in
another Global Security, the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and an increase in the principal amount of the Global Security to which such interest is being transferred in an amount equal to the principal amount of the
interest to be so transferred, and the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and a corresponding decrease in the principal amount of Global Security from which such interest is being transferred. 

(iii) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Exhibit A (other than the provisions set forth in Section 2.4),
a Global Security may not be transferred as a whole except by the Depository to a nominee of the Depository or by a nominee of the Depository to the Depository or another nominee of the Depository or by the Depository or any such nominee to a
successor Depository or a nominee of such successor Depository. 
 (iv) In the event that a Global Security is exchanged for
Securities in definitive registered form pursuant to Section 2.4 prior to the consummation of a Registered Exchange Offer or the effectiveness of a Shelf Registration Statement with respect to such Securities, such Securities may be exchanged
only in accordance with such procedures as are substantially consistent with the provisions of this Section 2.3 (including the certification requirements set forth on the reverse of the Initial Securities or Additional Securities intended to
ensure that such transfers comply with Rule 144A, Regulation S or such other applicable exemption from 

  
 A-6









 
registration under the Securities Act, as the case may be) and such other procedures as may from time to time be adopted by the Company. 

(d) Restrictions on Transfer of Regulation S Global Security. (i) Prior to the expiration of the Distribution
Compliance Period, interests in the Regulation S Global Security may only be held through Euroclear or Clearstream. During the Distribution Compliance Period, beneficial ownership interests in the Regulation S Global Security may only be sold,
pledged or transferred through Euroclear or Clearstream in accordance with the Applicable Procedures and only (1) so long as such security is eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A, to a person whom the selling holder reasonably
believes is a QIB that purchases for its own account or for the account of a QIB to whom notice is given that the resale, pledge or transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A, (2) in an offshore transaction in accordance with
Regulation S, (3) pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act provided by Rule 144 (if applicable) under the Securities Act, or (4) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, in
each case in accordance with any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States. Prior to the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period, transfers by an owner of a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Security to
a transferee who takes delivery of such interest through the Rule 144A Global Security shall be made only in accordance with Applicable Procedures and upon receipt by the Trustee of a written certification from the transferor of the beneficial
interest in the form provided on the reverse of the Initial Security to the effect that such transfer is being made to a QIB within the meaning of Rule 144A in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144A. Such written
certification shall no longer be required after the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period. 
 (ii) Upon the
expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period, beneficial ownership interests in the Regulation S Global Security shall be transferable in accordance with applicable law and the other terms of this Indenture. 

(e) Legend. 
 (i) Except as permitted by the following paragraphs (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v), each certificate evidencing the Global Securities and the Definitive Securities and the Regulation S Global Security
(prior to the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period) (and all Securities issued in exchange therefor or in substitution thereof), shall bear a legend in substantially the following form:

(ii) Upon any sale or transfer of a Transfer Restricted Security (including any Transfer Restricted Security represented by a Global

Security or Additional Security bear any Restricted Securities Legend shall cease to apply and the requirements requiring any such Initial Security or Additional Security be issued in global form shall continue to apply. 

(f) Cancellation or Adjustment of Global Security. At such time as all beneficial interests in a Global Security have
either been exchanged for certificated or Definitive Securities, redeemed, repurchased or canceled, such Global Security shall be returned by the Depository to the Trustee for cancellation or retained and canceled by the Trustee. At any time

Security is registered as the absolute owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security is overdue, and none of the Company,
the 

  
 A-10









 
Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar or any co-registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

successor depositary is not appointed by the Company within 90 days of such notice, or (ii) a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under the Indenture or (iii) the Company, in its sole discretion, notifies the

preceding the interest payment date even if Securities are canceled after the record date and on or before the interest payment date. Holders must surrender Securities to a Paying Agent to collect principal payments. The Company shall pay
principal and interest in money of the United States of America that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. Payments in respect of the Securities represented by a Global Security (including principal,
premium and interest) will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by The Depository Trust Company. The Company shall make all payments in respect of a certificated Security (including principal,
premium and interest) by mailing a check to the registered address of each Holder thereof; provided, however, that payments on the Securities may also be made, in the case of a Holder of at least $1,000,000 aggregate principal amount
of Securities, by wire transfer to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the payee with a bank in the United States if such Holder elects payment by wire transfer by giving written notice to the Trustee or the Paying Agent to such effect designating
such account no later than 30 days immediately preceding the relevant due date for payment (or such other date as the Trustee may accept in its discretion). 
 3. Paying Agent and Registrar 
 Initially, Wells Fargo Bank, National
Association (the “Trustee”), will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may appoint and change any Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar without notice. The Company or any of its domestic Wholly Owned
Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar. 
 4. Indenture 

The Company issued the Securities under an Indenture dated as of July 5, 2011 (the “Indenture”), between the Company
and the Trustee. The terms of the Securities include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S.C. 77aaa-77bbbb) as in effect on the date of the Indenture (the

Indenture). The Indenture imposes certain limitations on the ability of the Company and its Subsidiaries to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends or make distributions in respect of their capital stock, purchase or
redeem capital stock, enter into transactions with stockholders or certain affiliates, create liens or consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, other than in certain transactions between the Company and one

other conditions are satisfied, on and after such date interest ceases to accrue on such Securities (or such portions thereof) called for redemption.

value, as applicable), the maximum principal amount of the Securities and the maximum principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) of such Pari Passu Indebtedness that may be purchased out of the respective pro rata amounts of Excess

from the Company prior to any related purchase date and may elect to have such Securities purchased by completing the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse
of the Securities. 
 9. Denominations; Transfer; Exchange 

The Securities are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and whole multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. A
Holder may transfer or exchange Securities in accordance with the Indenture. Upon any transfer or exchange, the Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements or transfer documents and to
pay any taxes required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Registrar need not register the transfer of or exchange any Securities selected for redemption (except, in the case of a Security to be redeemed in part, the portion of the
Security not to be redeemed) or to transfer or exchange any Securities for a period of 15 days prior to a selection of Securities to be redeemed or 15 days before an interest payment date. 

10. Persons Deemed Owners 
 The registered Holder of this Security may be treated as the owner of it for all purposes. 
 11. Unclaimed Money 
 If money for the payment of principal, premium or
interest remains unclaimed for two years, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall pay the money back to the Company at its written request unless an abandoned property law designates another Person. After any such payment, Holders entitled to the
money must look only to the Company and not to the Trustee for payment. 
 12. Discharge and Defeasance 

Subject to certain conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Company at any time may terminate some of or all its obligations under the
Securities and the Indenture if the Company deposits with the Trustee money or Government Securities for the payment of principal and interest on the Securities to redemption or maturity, as the case may be. 

13. Amendment, Waiver 
 Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, (i) the Indenture or the Securities may be amended without notice to any Holder but with the written consent of the Holders of at least a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities and (ii) any default or noncompliance with any provision may be waived with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
outstanding Securities. Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, without the consent of any Holder of Securities, the Company and the Trustee may amend the Indenture or the Securities: (i) to cure any ambiguity, omission,
defect or inconsistency; (ii) to comply with Article V of the Indenture; (iii) to provide for uncertificated Securities in addition to or in place of certificated Securities; (iv) to add additional Guarantees with respect to the
Securities; (v) to secure the 

  
 A-21









 
Securities; (vi) to add additional covenants of the Company or to surrender rights and powers conferred on the Company; (vii) to make any change that does not adversely affect the
rights of any Holder; or (viii) to comply with the requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA. 
 14. Defaults and Remedies 
 If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing,
the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding, subject to certain limitations, may declare all the Securities to be immediately due and payable. Certain events of bankruptcy or
insolvency are Events of Default and shall result in the Securities being immediately due and payable upon the occurrence of such Events of Default without any further act of the Trustee or any Holder. 

Holders of Securities may not enforce the Indenture or the Securities except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may refuse to
enforce the Indenture or the Securities unless it receives reasonable indemnity or security. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may direct the Trustee in its
exercise of any trust or power under the Indenture. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind any declaration of acceleration and
its consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree, and if all existing Events of Default have been cured or waived except non-payment of principal or interest that has become due solely because of the acceleration.

 15. Trustee Dealings with the Company 
 Subject to certain limitations imposed by the TIA, the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with and
collect obligations owed to it by the Company or its Affiliates and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. 

16. No Recourse Against Others 
 A director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of the Company shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Securities or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in
respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. By accepting a Security, each Holder waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issue of the Securities. 

17. Authentication 
 This Security shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee (or an authenticating agent) manually signs the certificate of authentication on the other side of this Security.
