 2. Governing Law. THIS SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
 3. Concerning the Trustee. (a) The recitals contained herein shall be taken as
statements of the Company and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee assumes no duties, responsibilities or liabilities by reason of this Supplemental Indenture other than as set forth in the Indenture. In addition,
the Trustee makes no representation as to the validity or sufficiency of this Supplemental Indenture. 
 (b) The Company and
each Note Guarantor, jointly and severally shall indemnify the Trustee against any and all loss, liability or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by or in connection with the execution and delivery of this Supplemental
Indenture and the performance of its duties hereunder. The Trustee shall notify the Company of any claim for which it may seek indemnity promptly upon obtaining actual knowledge thereof; provided, however, that any failure so to notify the
Company shall not relieve the Company or any Note Guarantor of its indemnity obligations hereunder. The Company shall defend the claim and the indemnified party shall provide reasonable cooperation at the Company’s expense in the defense. Such
indemnified parties may have separate counsel and the Company and the Note Guarantors, as applicable, shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay such fees and expenses if
it assumes such indemnified parties’ defense and, in such indemnified parties’ reasonable judgment, there is no conflict of interest between the Company and the Note Guarantors, as applicable, and such parties in connection with such
defense. The Company need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by an indemnified party through such party’s own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith. 
 4. Separability. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Supplemental Indenture shall for any reason be held to be invalid,
illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions of this Supplemental Indenture, but this Supplemental Indenture shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or
unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. 
 5. Counterparts. The parties may sign any number of copies of this
Supplemental Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together represent the same agreement. 
 6. Effect of
Headings. The Section headings herein are for convenience only and shall not effect the construction thereof.
