Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio means, with respect to any Person
for any period, the ratio of EBITDA of such Person for such period to the Fixed Charges of such Person for such period. In the event that EFIH or any Restricted Subsidiary incurs, assumes, guarantees, redeems, retires or extinguishes any
Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness incurred under any revolving credit facility unless such Indebtedness has been permanently repaid and has not been replaced) or issues or redeems Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock subsequent to the
commencement of the period for which the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is being calculated but prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is made (the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio
Calculation Date), then the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to such incurrence, assumption, guarantee, redemption, retirement or extinguishment of Indebtedness, or such issuance or
redemption of Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period.

For purposes of making the computation referred to above, Investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, consolidations and disposed operations (as determined in accordance with GAAP) that have been
made by EFIH or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries during the four-quarter reference period or subsequent to such reference period and on or prior to or simultaneously with the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio Calculation Date shall be calculated on a
pro forma basis assuming that all such Investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, consolidations and disposed operations (and the change in any associated fixed charge obligations and the change in EBITDA resulting therefrom)
had occurred on the first day of the four-quarter reference period. If, since the beginning of such period, any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged with or into EFIH or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries since the
beginning of such period shall have made any Investment, acquisition, disposition, merger, consolidation or disposed operation that would have required adjustment pursuant to this definition, then the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be calculated
giving pro forma effect thereto for such period as if such Investment, acquisition, disposition, merger, consolidation or disposed operation had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period.

For purposes of this definition, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to a transaction, the pro
forma calculations shall be made in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting officer of EFIH. If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest on such
Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio Calculation Date had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any Hedging Obligations applicable to such Indebtedness). Interest
on a Capitalized Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably determined by a responsible financial or accounting officer of EFIH to be the rate of interest implicit in such Capitalized Lease Obligation in accordance
with GAAP. For purposes of making the computation referred to above, interest on any Indebtedness under a revolving credit facility computed on a pro forma basis shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such
Indebtedness during the applicable period except as set forth in the first paragraph of this definition. Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a

under this Indenture.

On the Issue Date, the Trustee shall, upon receipt of a written order of the Issuer

Section 2.03 Registrar and Paying Agent.

The Issuer shall maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange
(Registrar) and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (Paying Agent). The Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes (Note Register) and of their transfer and
exchange. The Issuer may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term Registrar includes any co-registrar and the term Paying Agent includes any additional paying agent.
The Issuer may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without prior notice to any Holder.

The Issuer shall
notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Issuer fails to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such Registrar or Paying Agent. The
Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Registrar or Paying Agent.

The Issuer initially appoints The
Depository Trust Company (DTC) to act as Depositary with respect to the Global Notes.

The
Issuer initially appoints the Trustee to act as the Registrar and Paying Agent for the Notes and to act as Custodian with respect to the Global Notes.

Section 2.04 Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust.

The
Issuer 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 premium or
cash interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on the Notes, and shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Issuer in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held
by it to the Trustee. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Issuer or a Subsidiary) shall have no further liability for the
money. If the Issuer or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the
Issuer, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Notes.

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 all Holders and shall otherwise comply with Trust Indenture Act Section 312(a). If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee at least two Business Days before each Interest Payment Date and

(h) Cancellation and/or Adjustment of Global Notes. At such time as all beneficial interests in a particular
Global Note have been exchanged for Definitive Notes or a particular Global Note has been redeemed, repurchased or canceled in whole and not in part, each such Global Note shall be returned to or retained and canceled by the Trustee in accordance
with Section 2.11 hereof. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for or transferred to a Person who shall take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global
Note or for Definitive Notes, the principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note shall be reduced accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by the Depositary at the direction of the Trustee to
reflect such reduction; and if the beneficial interest is being exchanged for or transferred to a Person who shall take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note, such other Global Note shall be increased
accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by the Depositary at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such increase.

(i) General Provisions Relating to Transfers and Exchanges.

(i) To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes upon receipt of an Issuer Authentication Order in
accordance with Section 2.02 hereof or at the Registrars request.

(ii) No service
charge shall be made to a holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Note or to a Holder of a Definitive Note for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar
governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes or similar governmental charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 2.07, 2.10, 3.06, 3.09, 4.10, 4.14 and 9.05 hereof).

(iii) Neither the Registrar nor the Issuer shall be required to register the transfer of or exchange any
Note selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.

(iv) All Global Notes and Definitive Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Global Notes or Definitive Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt,
and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Global Notes or Definitive Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

(v) The Issuer shall not be required (A) to issue, to register the transfer of or to exchange any
Notes during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of any selection of Notes for redemption under Section 3.02 hereof and ending at the close of business on the day of selection; (B) to register the transfer
of or to exchange any Note so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part; or (C) to register the transfer of or to exchange a Note between a Record Date and the next succeeding
Interest Payment Date.



62



---

(vi) Prior to due presentment for the registration of a
transfer of any Note, the Trustee, any Agent and the Issuer may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest
(including Additional Interest, if any) on such Notes and for all other purposes, and none of the Trustee, any Agent or the Issuer shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

(vii) Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the office or agency of the Issuer
designated pursuant to Section 4.02 hereof, the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and mail, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more replacement Notes of any authorized denomination or
denominations of a like aggregate principal amount.

(viii) At the option of the Holder, Notes
may be exchanged for other Notes of any authorized denomination or denominations of a like aggregate principal amount upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Global Notes or Definitive Notes are so
surrendered for exchange, the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and mail or otherwise deliver in accordance with the procedures of DTC, the replacement Global Notes and Definitive Notes which the Holder making the exchange is
entitled to in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02 hereof.

(ix) All
certifications, certificates and Opinions of Counsel required to be submitted to the Registrar pursuant to this Section 2.06 to effect a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted by facsimile.

Section 2.07 Replacement Notes.

If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee, the Registrar or the Issuer and the Trustee receives evidence to its
satisfaction of the ownership and destruction, loss or theft of any Note, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Issuer Authentication Order, shall authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustees requirements are met. If
required by the Trustee or the Issuer, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Issuer to protect the Issuer, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that
any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Issuer and the Trustee may charge for their expenses in replacing a Note.

Every replacement Note is a contractual obligation of the Issuer and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

Section 2.08 Outstanding Notes.

The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those
delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding. Except as set forth in
Section 2.09 hereof, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer holds the Note.

If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser.



63



---

If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under
Section 4.01 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue.

If the Paying
Agent (other than the Issuer, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds, on a Redemption Date or maturity date, money sufficient to pay Notes payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes shall be deemed to be no longer
outstanding and shall cease to accrue interest.

Section 2.09 Treasury Notes.

In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or
consent, any Notes owned by the Issuer or any Affiliate of the Issuer, shall be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or
consent, only Notes that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee knows are so owned, shall be so disregarded. Notes so owned which have been pledged in good faith shall not be disregarded if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of the Trustee
the pledgees right to deliver any such direction, waiver or consent with respect to the Notes and that the pledgee is not the Issuer or any obligor upon the Notes or any Affiliate of the Issuer or of such other obligor.

Section 2.10 Temporary Notes.

Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of a
Issuer Authentication Order, shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of certificated Notes but may have variations that the Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as shall be reasonably
acceptable to the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes.

Holders and beneficial holders, as the case may be, of temporary Notes shall be entitled to all of the benefits accorded
to Holders, or beneficial holders, respectively, of Notes under this Indenture.

Section 2.11
Cancellation.

The Issuer at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar
and Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee or, at the direction of the Trustee, the Registrar or the Paying Agent and no one else shall cancel all Notes
surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall destroy cancelled Notes (subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act). Certification of the destruction of all cancelled Notes
shall be delivered to the Issuer upon the Issuers written request. The Issuer may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

Section 2.12 Defaulted Cash Interest.

If the Issuer defaults in a payment of cash interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on the Notes, it shall pay
the defaulted cash interest (including Additional Interest, if any) in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted cash interest (including Additional Interest, if any), to the Persons who are Holders on a
subsequent special record date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted cash interest (including Additional Interest, if any) proposed
to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment and at the same time the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of



64



---

money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such defaulted cash 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 cash interest as provided in this Section 2.12. The Trustee shall fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date
and payment date; provided that no such special record date shall be less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted cash interest. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer of such special record date. At least 15
days before the special record date, the Issuer (or, upon the written request of the Issuer, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuer) shall mail or cause to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder a notice at his or
her address as it appears in the Note Register that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid. Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.12 and for greater certainty, each
Note delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Note shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Note.

Section 2.13 CUSIP and ISIN Numbers.

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

Section 2.14
Listing.

The Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee when the Notes become listed or cease to be
listed on any U.S. national or regional securities exchange.

ARTICLE 3

(b) In the event of partial redemption or purchase by lot, the particular
Notes to be redeemed or purchased shall be selected, unless otherwise provided herein, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee from the outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption or purchase.

(c) The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer in writing of the Notes selected for redemption or purchase
and, in the case of any Note selected for partial redemption or purchase, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed or purchased. Notes and portions of Notes selected shall be in amounts of $2,000 or whole multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof; no
Notes of $2,000 or less can be redeemed in part, except that if all of the Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed or purchased, the entire outstanding amount of Notes held by such Holder, even if not $2,000 or a multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof,
shall be redeemed or purchased. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption or purchase also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase.

Section 3.03 Notice of Redemption.

Subject to Section 3.09 hereof, notices of redemption shall be mailed by first-class mail, postage prepaid, at least
30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at such Holders registered address or otherwise delivered in accordance with the procedures of DTC, except that notices of redemption may be
mailed or delivered more than 60 days prior to a Redemption Date if the notice is issued in connection with Article 8 or Article 12 hereof. Except as set forth in Sections 3.04 and 3.07(b) hereof, notices of redemption may not be conditional.

The notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed and shall state:

(a) the Redemption Date;

(b) the redemption price;

(c) if any Note is to be redeemed in
part only, the portion of the principal amount of that Note that is to be redeemed and that, after the Redemption Date upon surrender of such Note, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the original Note
representing the same indebtedness to the extent not redeemed shall be issued in the name of the Holder of the Notes upon cancellation of the original Note;

(d) the name and address of the Paying Agent;

(e) that Notes

(f) that,
unless the Issuer defaults in making such redemption payment, interest on Notes called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the Redemption Date;

(g) the paragraph or subparagraph of the Notes and/or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed;

(h) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP and/or ISIN number, if any, listed in

(i) if in connection with a redemption pursuant to Section 3.07(b)
hereof, any condition to such redemption.

At the Issuers request, the Trustee shall give the notice of
redemption in the Issuers name and at its expense; provided that the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least five Business Days (or such lesser number of days as shall be acceptable to the Trustee) before notice of
redemption is required to be mailed or caused to be mailed to Holders pursuant to this Section 3.03 (unless a shorter notice shall be agreed to by the Trustee), an Officers Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and
setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in the preceding paragraph.

Section
3.04 Effect of Notice of Redemption.

Once notice of redemption is mailed or delivered in accordance
with Section 3.03 hereof or otherwise delivered in accordance with the procedures of DTC, Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the Redemption Date at the redemption price (except as provided for in
Section 3.07(b) hereof). The notice, if mailed or delivered in a manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case, failure to give such notice by mail or
delivery or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Note designated for redemption in whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Note. Subject to Section 3.05 hereof, on and after the
Redemption Date, interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions of Notes called for redemption.

Section 3.05
Deposit of Redemption or Purchase Price.

Prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the redemption or

purchased on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall promptly return to the Issuer any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Issuer in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption price of, and accrued and
unpaid interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on, all Notes to be redeemed or purchased.

If the
Issuer complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on and after the redemption or purchase date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase. If a Note is redeemed or purchased
on or after a Record Date but on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, then any accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest, if any) to the redemption or purchase date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was
registered at the close of business on such Record Date. If any Note called for redemption or purchase shall not be so paid upon surrender for redemption or purchase because of the failure of the Issuer to comply with the preceding paragraph,
interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption or purchase date until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest (including Additional Interest, if any) accrued to the redemption or purchase date not paid
on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof.

Section 3.06 Notes Redeemed or Purchased in Part.

Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed or purchased in part, the Issuer shall issue and, upon receipt of an Issuer
Authentication Order, the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder at the expense of the Issuer a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered representing the same indebtedness to the extent
not redeemed or purchased; provided that each new Note shall be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess

thereof. It is understood that, notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, only an Issuer Authentication Order and not an Opinion of Counsel or Officers Certificate is
required for the Trustee to authenticate such new Note.

Section 3.07 Optional Redemption.

(a) Notes Make Whole Redemption. At any time prior to May 15, 2016, the Issuer may redeem, in whole or in
part, the Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest, if any) to, the date of redemption (the
Redemption Date), subject to the right of Holders of Notes of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date.

redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes at a redemption price equal to 111.000% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest, if any) to the Redemption Date,
subject to the right of Holders of Notes of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date, with the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings; provided that at least 50% of the sum of
the original aggregate principal amount of Initial Notes and any Additional Notes issued under this Indenture after the Issue Date remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of each such redemption; and provided, further that
each such redemption occurs within 90 days of the date of closing of each such Equity Offering. Notice of any redemption upon any Equity Offerings may be given prior to the redemption thereof, and any such redemption or notice may, at the
Issuers option and discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of the related Equity Offering.

Holders of Notes of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on May 15 of each of the years indicated below:



|                    |  |            |         |  
|------------------- |  | ---------- | ------- | -
|Year                |  | Percentage |        
|2016                |  |            | 105.500 | %
|2017                |  |            | 103.667 | %
|2018                |  |            | 101.833 | %
|2019 and thereafter |  |            | 100.000 | %

(e) Any
redemption pursuant to this Section 3.07 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.01 through 3.06 hereof.

Section 3.08 Mandatory Redemption.

Except as set forth in
this Section 3.08, the Issuer shall not be required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.



68



---

If the Initial Notes would otherwise constitute applicable high yield
discount obligations within the meaning of Section 163(i)(1) of the Code, at the end of each accrual period (as defined in Section 1272(a)(5) of the Code) ending after the fifth anniversary of the Issue Date (each, an
AHYDO Redemption Date), the Issuer will be required to redeem for cash a portion of the then outstanding Initial Notes equal to the Mandatory Principal Redemption Amount (each such redemption, a Mandatory
Principal Redemption). The redemption price for the portion of the Initial Notes redeemed pursuant to any Mandatory Principal Redemption will be 100% of the aggregate principal amount of such portion of the Initial Notes to be redeemed
plus any accrued interest thereon (including Additional Interest, if any) on the date of the redemption. Mandatory Principal Redemption Amount means, as of each AHYDO Redemption Date, the portion of the Initial Notes required to
be redeemed at such date to prevent the Initial Notes from being treated as applicable high yield discount obligations within the meaning of Section 163(i)(1) of the Code. No partial redemption or repurchase of the Initial Notes
prior to any AHYDO Redemption Date pursuant to any other provision of this Indenture will alter the Issuers obligation to make any Mandatory Principal Redemption with respect to the Initial Notes that remain outstanding on such AHYDO
Redemption Date.

Section 3.09 Offers to Repurchase by Application of Excess Proceeds.

(a) In the event that, pursuant to Section 4.10 hereof, the Issuer shall be required to commence an Asset Sale Offer
or a Collateral Asset Sale Offer, it shall follow the procedures specified below.

(b) The Asset Sale Offer or
the Collateral Asset Sale Offer shall remain open for a period of 20 Business Days following its commencement and no longer, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the Offer Period). No later than
five Business Days after the termination of the Offer Period (the Purchase Date), the Issuer shall apply all Excess Proceeds or Collateral Excess Proceeds, as applicable (the Offer Amount), to the purchase of
Notes (subject to the limitations set forth in clause (1) of Section 4.10(b) hereof with respect to Excess Proceeds or in Section 4.10(f) hereof with respect to Collateral Excess Proceeds) and, (A) with respect to Excess
Proceeds, if required or permitted by the terms thereof, any, Senior Indebtedness (on a pro rata basis, if applicable), (B) with respect to Collateral Excess Proceeds, if required or permitted by the terms thereof, all Senior Lien
Debt properly tendered for purchase shall be purchased, and any remaining Collateral Excess Proceeds shall be applied to the Notes and any other Junior Lien Debt properly tendered on a pro rata basis (if applicable), or, if less than the Offer
Amount has been tendered, all Notes and Senior Indebtedness tendered in response to the Asset Sale Offer (subject to the limitations set forth in clause (1) of Section 4.10(b) hereof), or all Notes and Secured Lien Debt tendered in
response to the Collateral Asset Sale Offer (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 4.10(f) hereof), as applicable. Payment for any Notes so purchased shall be made in the same manner as interest payments are made.

(c) If the Purchase Date is on or after a Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and
unpaid interest (including Additional Interest, if any) up to but excluding the Purchase Date, shall be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such Record Date, and no additional interest shall be payable
to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer or the Collateral Asset Sale Offer, as applicable.

(d) Upon the commencement of an Asset Sale Offer or a Collateral Asset Sale Offer, the Issuer shall send, by first-class
mail, a notice to each of the Holders, with a copy to the Trustee. The notice shall contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender Notes pursuant to such Asset Sale Offer or Collateral Asset Sale Offer. Any Asset
Sale Offer or Collateral Asset Sale Offer shall be made to all Holders and, if required or permitted, to (A) holders of Senior Indebtedness in the case of an Asset Sale Offer, or (B) holders of Secured Lien Debt in the case of a



69



---

Collateral Asset Sale Offer. The notice, which shall govern the terms of the Asset Sale Offer or the Collateral Asset Sale Offer, shall state:

(i) that the Asset Sale Offer or Collateral Asset Sale Offer, as applicable, is being made pursuant to
this Section 3.09 and Section 4.10 hereof and the length of time the Asset Sale Offer or the Collateral Asset Sale Offer shall remain open;

(ii) the Offer Amount, the purchase price and the Purchase Date;

(iii) that any Note not tendered or accepted for payment shall continue to accrue interest;

(iv) that, unless the Issuer defaults in making such payment, any Note accepted for payment pursuant to
the Asset Sale Offer or the Collateral Asset Sale Offer, as applicable, shall cease to accrue interest on and after the Purchase Date;

(v) that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer or a Collateral Asset Sale Offer, as applicable, may elect to have Notes purchased in the minimum amount of $2,000 or an
integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof;

(vi) that Holders electing to have a Note
purchased pursuant to any Asset Sale Offer or Collateral Asset Sale Offer shall be required to surrender the Note, with the form entitled Option of Holder to Elect Purchase attached to the Note completed, or transfer by book-entry

(vii) that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the Issuer, the Depositary or the
Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives, not later than the expiration of the Offer Period, a telegram, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Note the Holder delivered for purchase and
a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Note purchased;

(viii)
that, (A) in the case of an Asset Sale Offer, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes and Senior Indebtedness surrendered by the holders thereof exceeds the Offer Amount, the Trustee shall select the Notes and such Senior Indebtedness to be
purchased on a pro rata basis (subject to the limitations set forth in clause (1) of Section 4.10(b) hereof) or (B) in the case of a Collateral Asset Sale Offer, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other
Secured Lien Debt surrendered by the holders thereof exceeds the Offer Amount, the Trustee shall select the Senior Lien Debt properly tendered to be purchased and, if any Offer Amount remains, the Trustee shall select the Notes and any other Junior
Lien Debt to be purchased on a pro rata basis (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 4.10(f) hereof), in each case based on the accreted value or principal amount of the Notes, or such Senior Indebtedness or Secured Lien Debt, as
applicable, tendered (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Trustee so that only Notes in denominations of $2,000, or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, shall be purchased); and

(ix) that Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part shall be issued new Notes equal in principal
amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered (or transferred by book-entry transfer) representing the same indebtedness to the extent not repurchased.

dividend to EFH Corp. from an Asset Sale Cash Collateral Account in accordance with Section 4.10(f) hereof, solely to fund scheduled interest payments when due and payable on Indebtedness of EFH Corp. that is guaranteed by EFIH and constitutes
Secured Lien Debt; provided that any individual Restricted Payment made pursuant to this clause (20) may not exceed the amount of the next scheduled interest payment on such Secured Lien Debt of EFH Corp. and that proceeds from such
Asset Sale Cash Collateral Account are being applied pro rata to make scheduled interest payments on Secured Lien Debt of EFIH;

provided, however, that at the time of, and after giving effect to, any Restricted Payment permitted under clauses (7), (11) and (18) of this Section 4.07(b), no Default shall
have occurred and be continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof.

For the avoidance of doubt, the
spin-off by EFH Corp. of the Equity Interests of EFIH in a Permitted Asset Transfer would not be a Restricted Payment.

EFIH shall not permit any Unrestricted Subsidiary to become a Restricted Subsidiary except pursuant to the penultimate paragraph of the definition of Unrestricted Subsidiary. For purposes of
designating any Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, all outstanding Investments by EFIH and its Restricted Subsidiaries (except to the extent repaid) in the Subsidiary so designated shall be deemed to be Restricted Payments in an
amount determined as set forth in the last sentence of the definition of Investments. Such designation shall be permitted only if a Restricted Payment in such amount would be permitted at such time, whether pursuant to
Section 4.07(a) hereof or under clause (7), (10) or (11) of Section 4.07(b) hereof, or pursuant to the definition of Permitted Investments, and if such Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted
Subsidiary.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.07, EFIH shall not, and shall not
permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, pay any cash dividend or make any cash distribution to EFH Corp. or in respect of EFIHs Capital Stock or purchase for cash or otherwise acquire for cash any Capital Stock of EFIH or any direct or
indirect parent of EFIH for the purpose of paying any cash dividend or making any cash distribution to, or acquiring Capital Stock of any direct or indirect parent of EFIH for cash from, the Investors, or guarantee any Indebtedness of any Affiliate
of EFIH for the purpose of paying such dividend, making such distribution or so acquiring such Capital Stock to or from the Investors, in each case by means of utilization of the cumulative Restricted Payment credit provided by Section 4.07(a)
hereof, or the exceptions provided by clauses (1), (7) or (11) of Section 4.07(b) hereof or clauses (8), (10) or (13) of the definition of Permitted Investments, unless (x) at the time and after giving
effect to such payment, the Consolidated Leverage Ratio of EFIH would be equal to or less than 6.00 to 1.00 prior to a Permitted Asset Transfer and 7.00 to 1.00 after a Permitted Asset Transfer and (y) such payment is otherwise in compliance
with this Section 4.07.

Section 4.09 hereof and



82



---

either (i) the provisions relating to such encumbrance or restriction contained in such Indebtedness are no less favorable to EFIH, taken as a whole, as determined by EFIH in good faith,
than the provisions contained in this Indenture on the Issue Date or in the provisions described in the Description of the Notes attached to the Exchange Agreements as Appendix B or (ii) any such encumbrance or restriction does not
prohibit (except upon a default thereunder) the payment of dividends or loans in an amount sufficient, as determined by EFIH in good faith, to make scheduled payments of cash interest of the Notes when due;

(10) customary provisions in joint venture agreements and other agreements or arrangements relating solely
to such joint venture;

(11) customary provisions contained in leases or licenses of
intellectual property and other agreements, in each case entered into in the ordinary course of business;

increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancing of the contracts, instruments or obligations referred to in clauses (1) through (11) of this Section 4.08(b); provided that such amendments, modifications,
restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings are, in the good faith judgment of EFIH, no more restrictive with respect to such encumbrance and other restrictions taken as a whole than those prior to such
amendment, modification, restatement, renewal, increase, supplement, refunding, replacement or refinancing;

(13) restrictions created in connection with any Receivables Facility for the benefit of EFIH or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that, in the good faith determination of EFIH, are necessary or

(14)
restrictions or conditions contained in any trading, netting, operating, construction, service, supply, purchase, sale, hedging or similar agreement to which EFIH or any Restricted Subsidiary is a party entered into in the ordinary course of
business; provided that such agreement prohibits the encumbrance solely to the property or assets of EFIH or such Restricted Subsidiary that are the subject of such agreement, the payment rights arising thereunder and/or the proceeds thereof
and does not extend to any other asset or property of EFIH or such Restricted Subsidiary or the assets or property of any other Restricted Subsidiary.

Section 4.09 Limitation on Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock.

(a) EFIH shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur,

Indebtedness not permitted by this clause (7);

(8) Indebtedness of a Restricted
Subsidiary to EFIH or another Restricted Subsidiary or if such Restricted Subsidiary is a Guarantor (so long as EFIH is a Subsidiary of EFH Corp.), to EFH Corp. or any of its restricted Subsidiaries, (A) to the extent the proceeds of such

EFIH, such Preferred Stock has a Weighted Average Life to Maturity which is not less than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Indebtedness being

---

to finance the purchase or redemption of Equity Interests of EFIH or any direct or indirect parent company of EFIH to the extent described in clause (4) of Section 4.07(b) hereof.

(c) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.09:

(1) in the event that an item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion
thereof) meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of permitted Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock described in clauses (1) through (19) of Section 4.09(b) hereof or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to
Section 4.09(a) hereof, EFIH, in its sole discretion, shall classify or reclassify such item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) and shall only be required to include the amount and type of such
Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock in one of the above clauses; and

(2) at
the time of incurrence, EFIH shall be entitled to divide and classify an item of Indebtedness in more than one of the types of Indebtedness described in Sections 4.09(a) and 4.09(b) hereof.

(d) Accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value and the payment of interest in the form of additional
Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock shall not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock for purposes of this Section 4.09.

(e) For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of
Indebtedness, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term
debt, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit debt; provided that if such Indebtedness is incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable U.S.
dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S. dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal
amount of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced.

The principal amount of any Indebtedness incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency
exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such respective Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

(f) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 4.09 to the contrary, EFIH shall not, and shall not permit EFIH Finance or any Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, incur any Indebtedness (including
Acquired Indebtedness) that is subordinated or junior in right of payment to any Indebtedness of EFIH, EFIH Finance or such Guarantor, as the case may be, unless such Indebtedness is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or such
Guarantors Guarantee to the extent and in the same manner as such Indebtedness is subordinated to other Indebtedness of EFIH, EFIH Finance or such Guarantor, as the case may be.

For purposes of this Indenture, Indebtedness that is unsecured is not deemed to be subordinated or junior to Secured
Indebtedness merely because it is unsecured, and Senior Indebtedness is not deemed to be subordinated or junior to any other Senior Indebtedness merely because it has a junior priority with respect to the same collateral.

(a) EFIH shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to consummate, directly or indirectly, an
Asset Sale, unless:

(2) (A) except in the case of a Permitted Asset Swap, at least 75% of the consideration therefor received
by EFIH or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents; provided that the amount of:

Restricted Subsidiary, other than liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or that are owed to EFIH or an Affiliate of EFIH, that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets and for which EFIH and all of its Restricted
Subsidiaries have been validly released by all applicable creditors in writing,

securities received by EFIH or such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted by EFIH or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash (to the extent of the cash received) within 180 days following the closing of such Asset Sale, and

(c) any Designated Non-cash Consideration received by EFIH or such Restricted Subsidiary in
such Asset Sale having an aggregate fair market value, taken together with all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (c) that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed 5% of 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; provided that the
aggregate fair market value of Designated Non-cash Consideration received by EFIH after November 16, 2009 in respect of Asset Sales of Collateral shall not exceed $400.0 million,

shall be deemed to be cash for purposes of this clause (a)(2)(A) and for no other purpose; and

(B) any consideration received by EFIH from an Asset Sale of Collateral shall be concurrently pledged as
Collateral for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes and holders of the other Secured Debt Obligations; provided that to the extent such consideration is received by EFIH in cash, it shall be held in an Asset Sale Cash Collateral Account
pending the application of such cash consideration pursuant to this Section 4.10.

(b) In respect of Net
Proceeds received by EFIH or any Restricted Subsidiary from Asset Sales (other than an Asset Sale of Collateral or other Oncor-related Assets), within 450 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds of any such Asset Sale, EFIH or such
Restricted Subsidiary, at its option, may apply the Net Proceeds from such Asset Sale,

(1) to
repay or prepay Secured Lien Debt of EFIH (other than the Notes), and, in the case of revolving loans and other similar obligations, permanently reduce the commitment thereunder, on a pro rata basis (including to make Restricted
Payments to EFH Corp. to permit EFH Corp. to repay or prepay Indebtedness of EFH Corp. (other than Indebtedness owed to a



89

Subsidiary of EFH Corp.) that is guaranteed by EFIH and constitutes Secured Lien Debt), but only up to an aggregate principal amount equal to such Net Proceeds to be used to repay Indebtedness
pursuant to this clause (1) multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate outstanding principal amount of such Secured Lien Debt and the denominator of which is the aggregate principal amount of all Secured Lien Debt
(including the Notes), based on amounts outstanding on the date of closing of such Asset Sale; provided that EFIH shall either (x) equally and ratably reduce Obligations under the Notes as provided by Section 3.07 hereof or through
open-market purchases (to the extent such purchases are at or above 100% of the principal amount thereof) or (y) make an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 4.10) to all Holders to purchase their Notes at
100% of the principal amount thereof plus the amount of accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest, if any);

(2) to permanently reduce:

(A) Obligations under
Senior Indebtedness which is Secured Indebtedness permitted by this Indenture, and to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto;

(B) Obligations under other Senior Indebtedness, and to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto; provided that the Issuer shall equally and ratably reduce Obligations under the
Notes as provided under Section 3.07 hereof, through open-market purchases (to the extent such purchases are at or above 100% of the principal amount thereof) or otherwise by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth in
Section 4.10(d) hereof for an Asset Sale Offer) to all Holders to purchase their Notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the amount of accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest, if any); or

(C) Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor, other than Indebtedness owed to the
Issuer or another Restricted Subsidiary (or any Affiliate thereof);

(3) to make (A) an
Investment in any one or more businesses; provided that such Investment in any business is in the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock and results in the Issuer or another of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, owning an
amount of the Capital Stock of such business such that it constitutes a Restricted Subsidiary, (B) capital expenditures or (C) acquisitions of other assets, in each of (A), (B) and (C), used or useful in a Similar Business; or

(4) to make an Investment in (A) any one or more businesses; provided that such
Investment in any business is in the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock and results in the Issuer or another of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, owning an amount of the Capital Stock of such business such that it constitutes a
Restricted Subsidiary, (B) properties or (C) acquisitions of other assets that, in each of (A), (B) and (C), replace the businesses, properties and/or assets that are the subject of such Asset Sale;

provided that, in the case of clauses (3) and (4) above, a binding commitment shall be treated as a
permitted application of the Net Proceeds from the date of such commitment so long as EFIH, or such other Restricted Subsidiary enters into such commitment with the good faith expectation that such Net Proceeds shall be applied to satisfy such
commitment within 180 days of such commitment (an Acceptable Commitment) (and reinvest within the later of 450 days from the date of receipt of Net Proceeds and 180 days of receipt of such commitment), and, in the event



90



---

any Acceptable Commitment is later cancelled or terminated for any reason before the Net Proceeds are applied in connection therewith, EFIH or such Restricted Subsidiary enters into another
Acceptable Commitment (a Second Commitment) within the later of (a) 180 days of such cancellation or termination or (b) the initial 450-day period; provided further, that if any Second Commitment is
later cancelled or terminated for any reason before such Net Proceeds are applied, then such Net Proceeds shall constitute Excess Proceeds.

(c) Notwithstanding Section 4.10(b) hereof, to the extent that regulatory approval is necessary for an asset purchase or investment, or replacement, repair or restoration on any asset or investment,
then EFIH or any Restricted Subsidiary shall have an additional 365 days to apply the Net Proceeds from such Asset Sale in accordance with Section 4.10(b) hereof.

(d) Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales (other than Asset Sales of Collateral or other Oncor-related Assets) that are not
invested or applied as provided and within the time period set forth in Section 4.10(b) hereof shall be deemed to constitute Excess Proceeds. When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $200.0 million, EFIH
shall make an offer to all Holders of the Notes and, if required or permitted by the terms of any Senior Indebtedness, to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness (an Asset Sale Offer), to purchase the maximum aggregate principal
amount of the Notes and such Senior Indebtedness that is a minimum of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal
amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest, if any) to the date fixed for the closing of such offer, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture. EFIH shall commence an Asset Sale Offer with
respect to Excess Proceeds within 10 Business Days after the date that Excess Proceeds exceed $200.0 million by mailing or delivering the notice required pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, with a copy to the Trustee.

(e) To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes and such Senior Indebtedness tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale
Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, EFIH may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for general corporate purposes, subject to other covenants contained in this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes or the Senior Indebtedness
surrendered by such holders thereof exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Notes and such Senior Indebtedness shall be purchased on a pro rata basis based on the accreted value or principal amount of the Notes or such Senior
Indebtedness tendered. Additionally, EFIH may, at its option, make an Asset Sale Offer using proceeds from any Asset Sale (other than Asset Sales of Collateral or other Oncor-related Assets) at any time after consummation of such Asset Sale;
providedthat such Asset Sale Offer shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than $25.0 million. Upon consummation of such Asset Sale Offer, any Net Proceeds not required to be used to purchase Notes shall not be deemed Excess
Proceeds.

(f) In respect of Net Proceeds received by EFIH or any Restricted Subsidiary from Asset Sales of
Collateral or other Oncor-related Assets, within 450 days after the receipt by EFIH or any Restricted Subsidiary of any Net Proceeds of any such Asset Sale, EFIH or such Restricted Subsidiary shall be required to deposit the Net Proceeds from such
Asset Sale into an Asset Sale Cash Collateral Account to be held solely for the purpose of repayment of principal of, and premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on, and/or to repay or prepay, Senior Lien Obligations of
EFIH (or, following the Discharge of Senior Lien Obligations or the repurchase of all Senior Lien Debt in a Collateral Asset Sale Offer described below, Junior Lien Obligations), and, in the case of revolving loans and other similar obligations,
permanently reduce the commitment thereunder (including to make Restricted Payments to EFH Corp. to permit EFH Corp. to repay or prepay Indebtedness of EFH Corp. that is guaranteed by EFIH and constitutes Senior Lien Debt (or, following the
Discharge of Senior Lien Obligations or the repurchase of all Senior Lien Debt in a Collateral Asset Sale Offer described below, Indebtedness of EFH Corp. that is guaranteed by EFIH and constitutes Junior Lien Debt)).

---

(g) Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales of Collateral or other Oncor-related
Assets that are not invested or applied as provided and within the time period set forth in Section 4.10(f) hereof shall be deemed to constitute Collateral Excess Proceeds. When the aggregate amount of Collateral Excess
Proceeds exceeds $200.0 million, EFIH and/or any of EFIHs Restricted Subsidiaries shall make an offer to all Holders of the Notes and, if required or permitted by the terms of any other Secured Lien Debt, to the holders of such other Secured
Lien Debt (and if required or permitted by the terms of any Indebtedness of EFH Corp. that is guaranteed by EFIH and constitutes Secured Lien Debt, EFH Corp. may make an offer to all holders of such Indebtedness) (a Collateral Asset Sale
Offer), to purchase the maximum aggregate principal amount of such Secured Lien Debt that is a minimum of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof that may be purchased out of the Collateral Excess Proceeds at an offer
price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest, if any) to the date fixed for the closing of such offer, in accordance with the terms and procedures set forth
in this Indenture and the other applicable Secured Debt Documents; provided that in any such Collateral Asset Sale Offer, all Senior Lien Debt properly tendered will be purchased before any Junior Lien Debt is purchased; provided that in the event
EFIH or such Restricted Subsidiary cannot make an offer to the holders of Senior Lien Debt and holders of Junior Lien Debt at the same time, EFIH or such Restricted Subsidiary may make a Collateral Asset Sale Offer to the holders of Senior Lien Debt
first and make a Collateral Asset Sale Offer to the holders of Junior Lien Debt thereafter with any Collateral Excess Proceeds not used to purchase Senior Lien Debt as soon as practicable upon consummation of the Collateral Asset Sale Offer for the
Senior Lien Debt. EFIH and/or any of EFIHs Restricted Subsidiaries shall commence a Collateral Asset Sale Offer with respect to Collateral Excess Proceeds within 10 Business Days after the date that Collateral Excess Proceeds exceed $200.0
million by mailing or delivering the notice required pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, with a copy to the Trustee.

(h) To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes and such Secured Lien Debt tendered pursuant to a Collateral Asset Sale Offer, or sequential Collateral Asset Sales Offer to holders of Senior Lien
Debt and Junior Lien Debt as provided for in Section 4.10(g), is less than the Collateral Excess Proceeds, EFIH and/or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may use any remaining Collateral Excess Proceeds for general corporate purposes, subject
to other covenants contained in this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other Secured Lien Debt surrendered by such holders thereof exceeds the amount of Collateral Excess Proceeds, all Senior Lien Debt properly tendered shall
be purchased before any Junior Lien Debt is purchased and thereafter the Notes and any other Junior Lien Debt shall be purchased on a pro rata basis based upon the accreted value or principal amount of the Notes or such other Junior Lien Debt
tendered. Additionally, the Issuer (and, if applicable, EFH Corp.) may, at its option, make a Collateral Asset Sale Offer using proceeds from any Asset Sale of Collateral or other Oncor-related Assets at any time after consummation of such Asset
Sale; provided that such Collateral Asset Sale Offer shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than $25.0 million. Upon consummation of such Collateral Asset Sale Offer, or sequential Collateral Asset Sale Offers to holders of Senior Lien
Debt and Junior Lien Debt as provided for in Section 4.10(g), any Net Proceeds not required to be used to purchase Secured Lien Debt shall not be deemed Collateral Excess Proceeds and the Issuer and EFIHs Restricted Subsidiaries may use
any remaining Net Proceeds for general corporate purposes, subject to the other covenants contained in this Indenture.

(i) Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds pursuant to this Section 4.10, the holder of such Net Proceeds may apply such Net Proceeds temporarily to reduce Indebtedness outstanding under a
revolving credit facility or otherwise invest such Net Proceeds in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture; provided, however, that any Net Proceeds that represent proceeds of Collateral or other Oncor-related Assets shall be
deposited and held in an Asset Sale Cash Collateral Account pending final application thereof in accordance with this Section 4.10. For the avoidance of



92



---

doubt, final application of Net Proceeds that represent proceeds from the sale of Collateral or other Oncor-related Assets includes, without limitation, the consummation of a
Collateral Asset Sale Offer.

(j) The Issuer shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the
Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws or regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer or a Collateral Asset Sale Offer. To the
extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Indenture, the Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations
described in this Indenture by virtue thereof.

Trustee a letter from an Independent Financial Advisor stating that such transaction is fair to EFIH or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view or stating that the terms are not materially less favorable to EFIH or its relevant
Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by EFIH or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person on an arms-length basis;

purchase agreement related thereto) to which it is a party as of the Issue Date and any similar agreements which it may enter into thereafter; provided,however, that the existence of, or the performance by EFIH or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries of obligations under any future amendment to any such existing agreement or under any similar agreement entered into after the Issue Date shall only be permitted by this clause (7) to the extent that the terms of any
such amendment or new agreement are not otherwise disadvantageous to the Holders when taken as a whole;

or any income or profits therefrom, or assign or convey any right to receive income therefrom, unless:

(1) in the case of Liens securing Subordinated Indebtedness, the Notes and any related Guarantees are secured by a Lien on such property, assets or proceeds that is senior in priority to such Liens; or

(b) Notwithstanding Section 4.12(a) hereof, EFIH shall not, directly or

the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

Section 4.14 Offer to Repurchase upon Change
of Control.

(a) If a Change of Control occurs, unless the Issuer has previously or concurrently mailed or

defective, such Holders failure to receive such notice or such defect shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the purchase of the Notes as to all other Holders that properly received such notice without defect. The Issuer shall
comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws or regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to a Change of

third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Section 4.14 applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all Notes
validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditional upon such Change of Control, if a definitive
agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time of making of the Change of Control Offer.

(e)
Other than as specifically provided in this Section 4.14, any purchase pursuant to this Section 4.14 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.02, 3.05 and 3.06 hereof.

extent the Successor Company is not a corporation, a Subsidiary of such Successor Company that is a co-obligor and a corporation organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state of the United States, the District of Columbia or
any territory thereof, expressly assumes all the obligations of EFIH under (i) the Notes, this Indenture and the Security Documents, to the extent EFIH is a party thereto, pursuant to a supplemental indenture or other document or instrument in

which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such consolidation, wind-up, merger, sale, lease, conveyance or other disposition, the
provisions of this Indenture referring to EFIH or such Guarantor, as the case may be, shall refer instead to the successor corporation and not to EFIH or such Guarantor, as the case may be), and may exercise every right and power of EFIH or such
Guarantor, as the case may be, under this Indenture with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named as EFIH or such Guarantor, as the case may be, herein; provided, that the predecessor EFIH shall not be relieved from the
obligation to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest if any) on the Notes, and such Guarantor shall not be released from its Guarantee, except in the case of a sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or

Section 6.01(a) hereof, such Event of Default and all consequences thereof (excluding any resulting payment default, other than as a result of acceleration of the Notes) shall be annulled, waived and rescinded, automatically and without any

(1)
the Indebtedness or guarantee that is the basis for such Event of Default has been discharged; or

105



---

(3) the default that is the basis for such Event of Default

Section 6.02 Acceleration.

If any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (6) or (7) of Section 6.01(a)
hereof) occurs and is continuing under this Indenture, the Trustee or the Required Holders of at least 30% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Required Debt may declare the principal of and premium, if any, interest (including
Additional Interest, if any) and any other monetary obligations on all the then outstanding Notes to be due and payable immediately. Upon the effectiveness of such declaration, such principal, premium, interest (including Additional Interest, if
any) and such other monetary obligations shall be due and payable immediately. The Trustee shall have no obligation to accelerate the Notes if and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines acceleration is not in the
best interest of the Holders of the Notes.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default
arising under clause (6) or (7) of Section 6.01(a) hereof, all principal of and premium, if any, interest (including Additional Interest, if any) and any other monetary obligations on the outstanding Notes shall be due and payable
immediately without further action or notice.

The Required Holders of at least a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the outstanding Required Debt by written notice to the Trustee may on behalf of all of the Required Holders waive any existing Default and its consequences under this Indenture except a continuing Default in the payment of
interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on, premium, if any, or the principal of any Note (held by a non-consenting Holder) and rescind any acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences (so long as such rescission would not
conflict with any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction).

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 and premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture.

The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the
proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder of a Note in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All
remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.

Section 6.04 Waiver of Past Defaults.

The Required Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Required Debt by
notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Required Holders of all of the Required Debt waive any existing Default and its consequences hereunder, except a continuing Default in the payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest
(including Additional Interest, if any) on, any Note held by a non-consenting Holder and rescind any acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences (provided such rescission would not conflict with any judgment of a court of
competent jurisdiction); provided, subject to Section 6.02 hereof, that the Required Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Required Debt may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including
any related payment default that resulted from such acceleration. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been



106



---

cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

Section 6.05 Control by Majority.

The Required Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Required Debt 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. The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this
Indenture or that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder of a Note or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability.

Section 6.06 Limitation on Suits.

Subject to Section 6.07 hereof, no Holder of a Note may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the
Notes unless:

(1) such Holder has previously given the Trustee notice that an Event of Default
is continuing;

(2) the Required Holders of at least 30% in aggregate principal amount of the
outstanding Required Debt have requested the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

(3) Holders of the
Notes have offered the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense;

(4) the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt thereof and the offer of security or indemnity; and

(5) the Required Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Required
Debt have not given the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period.

A
Holder of a Note may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder of a Note or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder of a Note.

Section 6.07 Rights of Holders of Notes to Receive Payment.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Note to receive payment of principal
of and premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on the Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Note (including in connection with an Asset Sale Offer, a Collateral Asset Sale Offer or a Change of
Control Offer), 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 clause (1) or (2) of Section 6.01(a) hereof occurs and is continuing,
the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer for the whole amount of principal, premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest, if any) remaining unpaid on the
Notes and interest on overdue principal and, to the



107



---

extent lawful, interest (including Additional Interest, if any) and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

Section 6.09
Restoration of Rights and Remedies.

If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to
enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in
such proceedings, the Issuer, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such
proceeding has been instituted.

Section 6.10 Rights and Remedies Cumulative.

Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes in
Section 2.07 hereof, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative
and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or
employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

Section 6.11 Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Note to exercise any right or remedy accruing
upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be
exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

Section 6.12 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

The
Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances
of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer (or any other obligor upon the Notes including the Guarantors), its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and
empowered to participate as a member in any official committee of creditors appointed in such matter and to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any custodian in any such judicial
proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by
a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any Plan of Reorganization or
arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or



108



---

adopt on behalf of any Holder any Plan of Reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of
the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

Section 6.13 Priorities.

(iii) to the Issuer or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction
shall direct including a Guarantor, if applicable.

The Trustee may fix a Record Date and payment date for any

In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the
Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as a Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable
costs, including reasonable attorneys fees, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 6.14 does not apply to a suit by the

conclusively rely upon 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, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may 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 Issuer,
personally or by agent or attorney at the sole cost of the Issuer and shall incur no liability or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation.

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

(c) The Trustee may act through its attorneys and agents and shall not be
responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent or attorney 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 the rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture.

(e) Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Indenture, any demand, request, direction or notice from the Issuer
shall be sufficient if signed by an Officer of the Issuer.

(f) None of the provisions of this Indenture shall
require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise to incur any liability, financial or otherwise, in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers if it shall have reasonable grounds
for believing that repayment of such funds or indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not assured to it.

(g) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which
is in fact such a Default is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references the Notes and this Indenture. Delivery of reports to the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.03 hereof shall not constitute
actual knowledge of, or notice to, the Trustee of information contained therein.

(h) In no event shall the
Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or
damage and regardless of the form of action.

(i) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits
given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder.

(j) In the event the Issuer is required to pay Additional Interest, the Issuer will provide written notice to
the Trustee of the Issuers obligation to pay Additional Interest no later than 15 days prior to the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, which notice shall set forth the amount of the Additional Interest to be paid by the Issuer. The Trustee
shall not at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holders to determine whether the Additional Interest is payable and the amount thereof.

Section 7.03 Individual Rights of Trustee.

The Trustee in
its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or any Affiliate of the Issuer with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. However, in the event that the Trustee
acquires any conflicting interest it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as trustee or resign. Any Agent may do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee is also subject to
Sections 7.10 and 7.11 hereof.

Section 7.04 Trustees Disclaimer.

The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or
the Notes, it shall not be accountable for the Issuers use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Issuer or upon the Issuers direction under any provision of this Indenture, it shall not be responsible for the use or
application of any money received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee, and it shall not be responsible for any statement or recital herein or any statement in the Notes or any other document in connection with the sale of the Notes or
pursuant to this Indenture other than its certificate of authentication.

Section 7.05 Notice of
Defaults.

If a Default occurs and is continuing and if it is known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail
or otherwise deliver in accordance with the procedure of DTC to Holders of Notes a notice of the Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default relating to the payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest
(including Additional Interest, if any) on any Note, the Trustee may withhold from the Holders notice of any continuing Default if and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the
interests of the Holders of the Notes. The Trustee shall not be deemed to know of any Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is such a Default is received by the
Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee.

Section 7.06 Reports by Trustee to Holders of the
Notes.

Within 60 days after each May 15, beginning with the May 15 following the date of this
Indenture, and for so long as Notes remain outstanding, the Trustee shall mail to the Holders of the Notes a brief report dated as of such reporting date that complies with Trust Indenture Act Section 313(a) (but if no event described in Trust
Indenture Act Section 313(a) has occurred within the twelve months preceding the reporting date, no report need be transmitted). The Trustee also shall comply with Trust Indenture Act Section 313(b)(2). The Trustee shall also transmit by
mail all reports as required by Trust Indenture Act Section 313(c).

A copy of each report at the time of
its mailing to the Holders of Notes shall be mailed to the Issuer and filed with the SEC and each stock exchange on which the Notes are listed in accordance with Trust Indenture Act Section 313(d). The Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee
when the Notes are listed on any stock exchange.

Section 7.07 Compensation and Indemnity.

The Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation for
its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder as the parties shall agree in writing from time to time. The Trustees compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuer and the
Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for all reasonable disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the
reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustees agents and counsel.

The Issuer and
the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall indemnify the Trustee for, and hold the Trustee harmless against, any and all loss, damage, claims, liability or expense (including attorneys fees) incurred by it in connection with the acceptance
or administration of this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder (including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Issuer or any of



112



---

the Guarantors (including this Section 7.07) or defending itself against any claim whether asserted by any Holder, the Issuer or any Guarantor, or liability in connective with the
acceptance, exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder). The Trustee shall notify the Issuer promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Issuer shall not relieve the Issuer of
its obligations hereunder. The Issuer shall defend the claim and the Trustee may have separate counsel and the Issuer shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel. The Issuer need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability
or expense incurred by the Trustee through the Trustees own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith.

The obligations of the Issuer under this Section 7.07 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture
or the earlier resignation or removal of the Trustee.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
Section 4.12 hereof, to secure the payment obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantors in this Section 7.07, the Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in
trust to pay principal and interest on particular Notes. Such Lien shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in clause (6) or (7) of Section 6.01(a) hereof occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the
services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

The Trustee shall comply with the provisions of Trust Indenture Act Section 313(b)(2) to the extent applicable.

Section 7.08 Replacement of Trustee.

A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee shall become effective only upon the
successor Trustees acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.08. The Trustee may resign at any time by giving 30 days prior written notice of such resignation to the Issuer and be discharged from the trust hereby created by
so notifying the Issuer. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Issuer in writing. The Issuer may remove the Trustee if:

(a) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof;

(b) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for relief is entered with respect to the Trustee
under any Bankruptcy Law;

(c) a custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or

(d) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting.

If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Issuer shall
promptly appoint a successor Trustee. Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may appoint a successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by
the Issuer.

If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or
is removed, the retiring Trustee (at the Issuers expense), the Issuer or the Holders of at least 10% in



113



---

principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

If the Trustee, after written request by any Holder who has been a Holder for at least six months, fails to comply with
Section 7.10 hereof, such Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuer.
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; provided, all sums owing to the Trustee hereunder have been paid and subject to the Lien provided for in
Section 7.07 hereof. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08, the Issuers obligations under Section 7.07 hereof shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

Section 7.09 Successor Trustee by Merger, etc.

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

Section 7.10 Eligibility; Disqualification.

There shall
at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, that is subject to
supervision or examination by federal or state authorities and that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition.

This Indenture shall always have a Trustee who satisfies the requirements of Trust Indenture Act Sections 310(a)(1),
(2) and (5). The Trustee is subject to Trust Indenture Act Section 310(b).

Section 7.11
Preferential Collection of Claims Against Issuer.

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

ARTICLE 8

Section 8.02 Legal Defeasance and Discharge.

Upon the Issuers exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, the
Issuer and the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes and Guarantees on the date the
conditions set forth below are satisfied (Legal Defeasance). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Issuer shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes, which
shall thereafter be deemed to be outstanding only for the purposes of Section 8.05 hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in (a) and (b) below, and to have satisfied all its other obligations under
such Notes and this Indenture including that of the Guarantors (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive until
otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:

(a) the rights of Holders of Notes to receive payments in
respect of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on the Notes when such payments are due solely out of the trust created pursuant to this Indenture referred to in Section 8.04 hereof;

(b) the Issuers obligations with respect to Notes concerning issuing temporary Notes, registration of
such Notes, mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and the maintenance of an office or agency for payment and money for security payments held in trust;

(d) this Section 8.02.

Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Issuer may exercise its option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 8.03 hereof.

Section 8.03 Covenant Defeasance.

Upon the Issuers exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the
Collateral shall be released from the Lien securing the Notes as provided in Section 10.06 hereof, and the Issuer and the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be released from
their obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.03, 4.04, 4.05, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.14, 4.15, 4.16, 4.18, 4.19, 4.20 and 4.21 hereof and clauses (3), (4) and (5) of Section 5.01(a), Sections
5.01(c) and 5.01(d) hereof with respect to the outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof are satisfied (Covenant Defeasance), and the Notes shall thereafter be deemed not
outstanding for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed outstanding for all
other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes, the Issuer may omit to comply with and
shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such
covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01 hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and
such Notes shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Issuers exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03 hereof, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in
Section 8.04



115

hereof, clauses (3), (4), (5) and (6) of Section 6.01(a) hereof, (solely with respect to Restricted Subsidiaries or groups of Restricted Subsidiaries that are Significant
Subsidiaries), clause (7) of Section 6.01(a) hereof (solely with respect to Restricted Subsidiaries or groups of Restricted Subsidiaries that are Significant Subsidiaries), and clauses (8) and (9) of Section 6.01(a) hereof

principal of and premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest, if any) due on the Notes on the stated maturity date or on the redemption date, as the case may be, of such principal of or premium, if any, or interest (including
Additional Interest, if any) on such Notes and the Issuer must specify whether such Notes are being defeased to maturity or to a particular redemption date;

(b) since the Issue Date, 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, subject to
customary assumptions and exclusions, the Holders of the Notes shall not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as applicable, 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 Legal Defeasance had not occurred;

(3) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that, subject to customary assumptions and
exclusions, the Holders of the Notes 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 such tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times
as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

continuing on the date of such deposit;

(5) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall
not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under any material agreement or instrument (other than this



116

Indenture) to which the Issuer or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Issuer or any Guarantor is bound (other than that resulting from borrowing funds to be applied to make the deposit
required to effect such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance and any similar and simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness and, in each case, the granting of Liens in connection therewith);

(which Opinion of Counsel may be subject to customary assumptions and exclusions) each stating that all conditions precedent provided for or relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, have been complied with.

Section 8.05 Deposited Money and Government Securities to Be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous
Provisions.

Subject to Section 8.06 hereof, all money and Government Securities (including the
proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the Trustee) pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof in respect of the outstanding Notes shall be held in
trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuer or a Guarantor acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may

Holders of the outstanding Notes.

Anything in this Article 8 to the contrary notwithstanding, the
Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Issuer from time to time upon the request of the Issuer any money or Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 8.04 hereof which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent
public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(1) hereof), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to
effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

Subject to any applicable abandoned property law, any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent,
or then held by the Issuer, in trust for the payment of the principal, premium and interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, and premium and interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Issuer on
its request or (if then held by the Issuer) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter look only to the Issuer for



117

payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Issuer as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease.

Section 8.07 Reinstatement.

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any United States dollars or Government Securities in accordance with
Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Issuers obligations under this Indenture
and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.02 or
8.03 hereof, as the case may be; provided that if the Issuer makes any payment of principal, premium and interest on any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such
Notes to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Required Debt (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, the Required Debt) and, subject to Sections
6.04 and



119



---

6.07 hereof, any existing Default or Event of Default (other than a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of or premium or interest (including Additional Interest, if any)
on the Notes, except a payment default resulting from an acceleration that has been rescinded) or compliance with any provision of this Indenture, the Notes, the Guarantees or the Security Documents relating to the Notes may be waived with the
consent of the Required Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Required Debt (including consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, the Required Debt) other than
Required Debt beneficially owned by the Issuer or EFIHs Affiliates. Section 2.08 hereof and Section 2.09 hereof shall determine which Notes are considered to be outstanding for the purpose of this Section 9.02.

Upon the request of the Issuer accompanied by a resolution of its Board of Directors authorizing the
execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Required Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding
Required Debt as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Sections 7.02 and 13.04 hereof, the Trustee shall join with the Issuer in the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture unless such amended or
supplemental indenture directly affects the Trustees own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental
indenture.

It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders of the Notes under this Section 9.02
to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Issuer shall mail to the Holders of Notes affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment,
supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Issuer to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental indenture or waiver.

Without the consent of each affected Holder of Notes, an amendment or waiver under this Section 9.02 may not (with
respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder):

(1) reduce the principal amount of such
Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver;

(2) reduce the
principal of or change the fixed final maturity of any such Note or alter or waive the provisions with respect to the redemption of such Notes (for the avoidance of doubt, the provisions contained in and relating to Section 3.08,
Section 3.09, Section 4.10 and Section 4.14 hereof are not redemptions of Notes);

(3) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest on any Note;

(4) waive a Default in the payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, except a
rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Required Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Required Debt and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration, or in respect of a
covenant or provision contained in this Indenture or any Guarantee which cannot be amended or modified without the consent of all Holders;

(5) make any Note payable in money other than that stated therein;



120

provisions of this Indenture or the Notes that would adversely affect the Holders; or

In addition, without the consent of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Required
Debt then outstanding, an amendment, supplement or waiver may not modify any Security Document relating to the Notes or the provisions of this Indenture dealing with the Security Documents or application of trust moneys in any manner materially
adverse to the Holders other than in accordance with this Indenture and the Security Documents. Without the consent of at least

Every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Notes shall be set forth in an amended or supplemental indenture
that complies with the Trust Indenture Act as then in effect.

Section 9.04 Revocation and Effect of
Consents.

Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a
Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a Note and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holders Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any
such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder of a Note may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the waiver, supplement or amendment becomes effective. Except as provided in the last
paragraph of Section 9.02 hereof, an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder.

The Issuer may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to consent to any amendment, supplement, or waiver. If a record date is fixed, then,
notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only such Persons, shall be entitled to consent to such amendment, supplement, or waiver or to revoke any consent
previously given, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 120 days after such record date unless the consent of the requisite number of Holders has been
obtained.

Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note shall not affect the validity and effect of such amendment,
supplement or waiver.

Section 9.06 Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc.

The Trustee shall sign any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment or
supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. The Issuer may not sign an amendment, supplement or waiver until the Board of Directors approves it. In executing any amendment, supplement or waiver,

stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that such amendment, supplement or waiver is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuer and any Guarantors party

constitutes gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee, for the validity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any agreement or assignment contained therein, for the validity of the title of the Issuer to the
Collateral, for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral. The Trustee shall have no duty to ascertain or inquire as to the performance

ARTICLE 11

GUARANTEES

Section 11.01 Guarantee.

Subject to this Article 11, each
of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, fully and unconditionally guarantees to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and
enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Issuer hereunder or thereunder, that: (a) the principal of and premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on the Notes shall be promptly paid in
full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Issuer to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or
thereunder shall be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (b) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same shall be
promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for
whatever reason, the Guarantors shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.

The Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity,
regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the
Issuer, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with
a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first against the



128



---

Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that this Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this
Indenture.

Each Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable
attorneys fees) incurred by the Trustee or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this Section 11.01.

If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Issuer, any of the Guarantors, or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to
either the Issuer or any of the Guarantors, any amount paid either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect.

Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of
any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity
of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 hereof for the purposes of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations
guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6 hereof, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for
the purpose of this Guarantee. The Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Guarantees.

Each Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or
against the Issuer for liquidation, reorganization, should the Issuer become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of the Issuers assets, and
shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Notes are, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be
restored or returned by any obligee on the Notes or Guarantees, whether as a voidable preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment or
any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Notes shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

In case any provision of any Guarantee shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality, and
enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

The
Guarantees shall rank equally in right of payment with all existing and future Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor. The Guarantees shall be senior in right of payment to all existing and future Subordinated Indebtedness of each Guarantor.

Each payment to be made by a Guarantor in respect of its Guarantee shall be made without set-off,
counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any kind or nature.

Section 11.02 Limitation on Guarantor
Liability.

Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the
intention of all such parties that the Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform



129



---

Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby
irrevocably agree that the obligations of each Guarantor shall be limited to the maximum amount as shall, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws
and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article 11, result in the obligations
of such Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under applicable law. Each Guarantor that makes a payment under its Guarantee shall be entitled upon payment in full of all guaranteed obligations
under this Indenture to a contribution from each other Guarantor in an amount equal to such other Guarantors pro rata portion of such payment based on the respective net assets of all the Guarantors at the time of such payment
determined in accordance with GAAP.

Section 11.03 Execution and Delivery.

To evidence its Guarantee set forth in Section 11.01 hereof, each Guarantor hereby agrees that this Indenture shall
be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by an Officer or person holding an equivalent title.

Each Guarantor
hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in Section 11.01 hereof shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the absence of the endorsement of any notation of such Guarantee on the Notes.

If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the
Note, the Guarantee shall be valid nevertheless.

The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the
authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors.

If required by Section 4.15 hereof, the Issuer shall cause any newly created or acquired Restricted Subsidiary to comply with the provisions of Section 4.15 hereof and this Article 11, to
the extent applicable.

Section 11.04 Subrogation.

Each Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of Holders of Notes against the Issuer in respect of any amounts paid by
any Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.01 hereof; provided that, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Guarantor shall be entitled to enforce or receive any payments arising out of, or based upon, such
right of subrogation until all amounts then due and payable by the Issuer under this Indenture or the Notes shall have been paid in full.

Section 11.05 Benefits Acknowledged.

Each Guarantor
acknowledges that it shall receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Indenture and that the guarantee and waivers made by it pursuant to its Guarantee are knowingly made in contemplation of such
benefits.

which the Issuer or any Guarantor is bound (other than that resulting from borrowing funds to be applied to make such deposit and any similar and simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness and in each case, the granting of Liens in
connection therewith);

(C) the Issuer has paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by it
under this Indenture; and

(D) the Issuer has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee
to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at maturity or the Redemption Date, as the case may be.

In addition, the Issuer must deliver an Officers Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied.

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money shall have been deposited with the
Trustee pursuant to subclause (A) of clause (2) of this Section 12.01, the provisions of Section 12.02 and Section 8.06 hereof shall survive.

Section 12.02 Application of Trust Money.

Subject to the provisions of Section 8.06 hereof, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to
Section 12.01 hereof shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuer acting as its own Paying Agent)
as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal and premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest, if any) for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee; but such money need not be
segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to
apply any money or Government Securities in accordance with Section 12.01 hereof 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 Issuers and any Guarantors obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 12.01 hereof; provided that if the Issuer has
made any payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or Government
Securities held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

[Back of Note]

Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless
otherwise indicated.

(1) INTEREST. Energy Future Intermediate Holding
Company LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (EFIH), and EFIH Finance Inc., a Delaware corporation (collectively, the Issuer), promise to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at
11% per annum from April 25, 2011 until maturity and shall pay Additional Interest, if any, payable pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement referred to below. The Issuer will pay interest (including Additional Interest,
if any) semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year, commencing on November 15, 2011, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an Interest Payment
Date) without interest accruing on the amount then so payable from such day that is not a Business Day until such Business Day. Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest
has been paid, from and including the date of issuance. The Issuer will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at the interest
rate on the Notes; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (including Additional Interest, if any)(without regard to any applicable grace periods) from
time to time on demand at the interest rate on the Notes. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

(2) METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Issuer will pay interest on the Notes (including Additional Interest, if any) to the Persons who are
registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on the May 1 or November 1 (whether or not a Business Day), as the case may be, next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such Record Date and on or
before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. Payment of interest (including Additional Interest, if any) may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses
set forth in the register of Holders; provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of, and premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on, all
Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which shall have provided wire transfer instructions to the Issuer or the Paying Agent. Such payment shall be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal
tender for payment of public and private debts.

(3) PAYING AGENT
AND REGISTRAR. Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent or Registrar
without notice to the Holders. The Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

(4)
INDENTURE. The Issuer issued the Notes under an Indenture, dated as of April 25, 2011 (the Indenture), between the Issuer and the Trustee. This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of
notes of the Issuer designated as its 11% Senior Secured Second Lien Notes due 2021 (the Notes). The Issuer shall be entitled to issue Additional Notes pursuant to Sections 2.01, 4.09 and 4.12 of the Indenture. The terms of the
Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the Trust Indenture Act). The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are
referred to the Indenture and such Act for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

(5) OPTIONAL REDEMPTION.

(a) Except as set forth below, the Issuer will not be entitled to redeem Notes at its option prior to
May 15, 2016.

(b) At any time prior to May 15, 2016, the Issuer may redeem the Notes, in whole or
in part, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior notice mailed by first class mail to the registered address of each Holder of Notes or otherwise delivered in accordance with procedures of DTC, at a redemption price equal to 100% of
the principal amount of the Notes redeemed plus the Applicable Premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest, if any) to the applicable date of redemption (the Redemption Date), subject to
the right of Holders of Notes of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date.

(c) From and after May 15, 2016, the Issuer may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior notice mailed by first class mail to the registered
address of each Holder of Notes or otherwise delivered in accordance with the procedures of DTC, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest
(including Additional Interest, if any) to the applicable Redemption Date, subject to the right of Holders of Notes of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date, if redeemed during the
twelve-month period beginning on May 15 of each of the years indicated below:



|                    |  |            |         |  
|------------------- |  | ---------- | ------- | -
|Year                |  | Percentage |        
|2016                |  |            | 105.500 | %
|2017                |  |            | 103.667 | %
|2018                |  |            | 101.833 | %
|2019 and thereafter |  |            | 100.000 | %

(d) Prior
to May 15, 2014, the Issuer may, at its option, on one or more occasions, redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of all Notes at a redemption price equal to 111.000% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid
interest (including Additional Interest, if any) to the Redemption Date, subject to the right of Holders of Notes of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date, with the net cash proceeds of one
or more Equity Offerings; provided that at least 50% of the sum of the original aggregate principal amount of Initial Notes and any Additional Notes issued under the Indenture after the Issue Date remains outstanding immediately after the
occurrence of each such redemption; provided further that each such redemption occurs within 90 days of the date of closing of each such Equity Offering. Notice of any redemption upon any Equity Offerings may be given prior to the
redemption thereof, and any such redemption or notice may, at the Issuers discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of the related Equity Offering.

(e) If the Issuer redeems less than all of the outstanding Notes, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be redeemed in
the manner described under Section 3.02 of the Indenture.

(f) Any redemption pursuant to this paragraph
5 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.01 through 3.06 of the Indenture.

(6)
MANDATORY REDEMPTION. Except as set forth below, the Issuer shall not be required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.



A-4



---

If the Initial Notes would otherwise constitute applicable high yield
discount obligations within the meaning of Section 163(i)(1) of the Code, at the end of each accrual period (as defined in Section 1272(a)(5) of the Code) ending after the fifth anniversary of the Issue Date (each, an
AHYDO Redemption Date), the Issuer will be required to redeem for cash a portion of the then outstanding Initial Notes equal to the Mandatory Principal Redemption Amount (each such redemption, a Mandatory
Principal Redemption). The redemption price for the portion of the Initial Notes redeemed pursuant to any Mandatory Principal Redemption will be 100% of the aggregate principal amount of such portion of the Initial Notes to be redeemed
plus any accrued interest thereon (including Additional Interest, if any) on the date of the redemption. Mandatory Principal Redemption Amount means, as of each AHYDO Redemption Date, the portion of the Initial Notes required to
be redeemed at such date to prevent the Initial Notes from being treated as applicable high yield discount obligations within the meaning of Section 163(i)(1) of the Code. No partial redemption or repurchase of the Initial Notes
prior to any AHYDO Redemption Date pursuant to any other provision of the Indenture will alter the Issuers obligation to make any Mandatory Principal Redemption with respect to the Initial Notes that remain outstanding on such AHYDO Redemption
Date.

(7) NOTICE OF REDEMPTION. Subject to
Section 3.03 of the Indenture, notice of redemption will be mailed by first-class mail at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date (except that redemption notices may be mailed or delivered more than 60 days prior to a
Redemption Date if the notice is issued in connection with Article 8 or Article 12 of the Indenture) to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address or otherwise delivered in accordance with the procedures of DTC.
Notes in denominations larger than $2,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are to be redeemed. On and after the Redemption Date interest ceases to accrue on
Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

(8) OFFERS TO
REPURCHASE.

(a) If a Change of Control occurs, the Issuer shall make an
offer (a Change of Control Offer) to each Holder to purchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of each Holders Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate
principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest, if any) to the date of purchase (the Change of Control Payment), subject to the right of Holders of Notes of record on the relevant
Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date. The Change of Control Offer shall be made in accordance with Section 4.14 of the Indenture.

(b) If EFIH or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries consummates an Asset Sale (other than an Asset Sale of Collateral or
other Oncor-related Assets), within 10 Business Days of each date that the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $200.0 million, EFIH shall make an offer to all Holders of the Notes, and if required or permitted by the terms of any Senior
Indebtedness, to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness (an Asset Sale Offer), to purchase the maximum aggregate principal amount of the Notes and such Senior Indebtedness that is a minimum of $2,000 or an integral multiple of
$1,000 in excess thereof that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest, if any) to the
date fixed for the closing of such offer, in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture. To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes, and such Senior Indebtedness tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess
Proceeds, EFIH may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for general corporate purposes, subject to other covenants contained in the Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes or such Senior Indebtedness surrendered by such holders thereof
exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Notes and such Senior Indebtedness will be purchased on a



A-5



---

pro rata basis based on the accreted value or principal amount of the Notes or such Senior Indebtedness tendered.

(c) EFIH may, at its option, make an Asset Sale Offer using proceeds from any Asset Sale at any time after consummation
of such Asset Sale (other than an Asset Sale of Collateral or other Oncor-related Assets); provided that such Asset Sale Offer shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than $25.0 million. Upon consummation of such Asset Sale Offer, any Net
Proceeds not required to be used to purchase Notes shall not be deemed Excess Proceeds.

(d) If EFIH or any of
its Restricted Subsidiaries consummates an Asset Sale of Collateral or other Oncor-related Assets, within 10 Business Days of each date that the aggregate amount of Collateral Excess Proceeds exceeds $200.0 million, EFIH and/or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries shall make an offer to all Holders of the Notes and, if required or permitted by the terms of any other Secured Lien Debt, to the holders of such other Secured Lien Debt (and if required or permitted by the terms of any Indebtedness of
EFH Corp. that is guaranteed by EFIH and constitutes Secured Lien Debt, EFH Corp. may make an offer to all holders of such Indebtedness) (a Collateral Asset Sale Offer), to purchase the maximum aggregate principal amount of such
Secured Lien Debt that is a minimum of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof that may be purchased out of the Collateral Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus
accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest, if any) to the date fixed for the closing of such offer, in accordance with the terms and procedures set forth in the Indenture and the other applicable Secured Debt Documents; provided
that in any such Collateral Asset Sale Offer, all Senior Lien Debt properly tendered will be purchased before any Junior Lien Debt is purchased; provided that in the event EFIH or such Restricted Subsidiary cannot make an offer to the holders of
Senior Lien Debt and holders of Junior Lien Debt at the same time, EFIH or such Restricted Subsidiary may make a Collateral Asset Sale Offer to the holders of Senior Lien Debt first and make a Collateral Asset Sale Offer to the holders of Junior
Lien Debt thereafter with any Collateral Excess Proceeds not used to purchase Senior Lien Debt as soon as practicable upon consummation of the Collateral Asset Sale Offer for the Senior Lien Debt. To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes and
such Secured Lien Debt tendered pursuant to a Collateral Asset Sale Offer, or sequential Collateral Asset Sale Offers to holders of Senior Lien Debt and Junior Lien Debt as provided for in the immediately preceding paragraph, is less than the
Collateral Excess Proceeds, EFIH and/or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may use any remaining Collateral Excess Proceeds for general corporate purposes, subject to other covenants contained in the Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of
Notes and other Secured Lien Debt surrendered by such holders thereof exceeds the amount of Collateral Excess Proceeds, all Senior Lien Debt properly tendered will be purchased before any Junior Lien Debt is purchased and thereafter the Notes and
any other Junior Lien Debt will be purchased on a pro rata basis based upon the accreted value or principal amount of the Notes or such other Junior Lien Debt tendered.

(e) The Issuer (and, if applicable, EFH Corp.) may, at its option, make a Collateral Asset Sale Offer using proceeds from
any Asset Sale of Collateral or other Oncor-related Assets at any time after consummation of such Asset Sale; providedthat such Collateral Asset Sale Offer shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than $25.0 million. Upon
consummation of such Collateral Asset Sale Offer, or sequential Collateral Asset Sale Offers to holders of Senior Lien Debt and Junior Lien Debt, any Net Proceeds not required to be used to purchase Secured Lien Debt shall not be deemed Collateral
Excess Proceeds and the Issuer and EFIHs Restricted Subsidiaries may use any remaining Net Proceeds for general corporate purposes, subject to the other covenants contained in the Indenture.

(9) DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE. The Notes are
in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the



A-6



---

Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Issuer may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or
permitted by the Indenture. The Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes or portion of Notes selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Notes being redeemed in part. Also, the Issuer need not exchange or
register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed.

(10)
PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes.

(11) AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER.
The Indenture, the Guarantees or the Notes may be amended or supplemented as provided in the Indenture.

(12)
DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES. The Events of Default relating to the Notes are defined in Section 6.01 of the Indenture. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or
the Required Holders of at least 30% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Required Debt may declare the principal of and premium, if any, interest (including Additional Interest, if any) and any other monetary obligations on all the
then outstanding Notes to be due and payable immediately. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, all principal of, and premium, if any, interest (including
Additional Interest, if any) and any other monetary obligations on, all the then outstanding Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture, the Notes or the Guarantees except as
provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Required Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Required Debt may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from
Holders of the Notes notice of any continuing Default (except a Default relating to the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest (including Additional Interest, if any)) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. The
Required Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Required Debt by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Required Holders of all of the Required Debt waive any existing Default or and its consequences under
the Indenture except a continuing Default in payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on, any of the Notes held by a non-consenting Holder. EFIH is required to deliver to the Trustee
annually a statement regarding compliance with the Indenture, and EFIH is required within five Business Days after becoming aware of any Default, to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default and what action the EFIH proposes to take
with respect thereto.

(13) AUTHENTICATION. This Note shall not be
entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee.

(14) ADDITIONAL RIGHTS OF HOLDERS OF RESTRICTED GLOBAL NOTES AND
RESTRICTED DEFINITIVE NOTES. In addition to the rights provided to Holders of Notes under the Indenture, Holders of Restricted Global Notes and Restricted Definitive Notes shall have all the rights
set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of April 25, 2011, among the Issuer and the other parties named on the signature pages thereof (the Registration Rights Agreement), including the right to receive Additional
Interest, if any (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement).

convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.

Registration Rights Agreement and/or the Security Documents. Requests may be made to the Issuer at the following address:

[FORM OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE

TO BE DELIVERED BY SUBSEQUENT
GUARANTORS]

Supplemental Indenture (this Supplemental Indenture), dated as of
, among
 (the Guaranteeing Subsidiary), a subsidiary of Energy Future Intermediate Holding Company LLC, a
Delaware limited liability company, and EFIH Finance Inc., a Delaware corporation (collectively, the Issuer), and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (the Trustee).

W I T N E S S E T H

WHEREAS, the Issuer has heretofore executed and delivered to the Trustee an Indenture (the Indenture), dated as of April 25, 2011, providing for the initial issuance of
$406,392,000 aggregate principal amount of 11% Senior Second Lien Secured Notes due 2021 (the Notes);

WHEREAS, the Indenture provides that under certain circumstances the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture pursuant to which the Guaranteeing Subsidiary
shall unconditionally guarantee all of the Issuers Obligations under the Notes and the Indenture on the terms and conditions set forth herein and under the Indenture (the Guarantee); and

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Indenture, the Trustee is authorized to execute and deliver this
Supplemental Indenture.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties mutually covenant and agree for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes as follows:

1. CAPITALIZED TERMS. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the
meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

2. AGREEMENT TO
GUARANTEE. The Guaranteeing Subsidiary hereby agrees as follows:

(a) Along with any Guarantors
named in the Indenture, to jointly and severally, fully and unconditionally guarantee to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and
enforceability of the Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Issuer hereunder or thereunder, that:

(i) the principal of and premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on the Notes shall be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or
otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Issuer to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder shall be promptly paid in full or performed, all in
accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and



D-1



---

(ii) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal
of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same shall be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. Failing payment when
due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors and the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor (including the Guaranteeing
Subsidiary) agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.

(b) The obligations
hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or the Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any
provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuer, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor.

(c) The following is hereby waived: diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event
of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever.

(d) Except as set forth in Section 5 hereof, this Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes, the Indenture and this Supplemental
Indenture, and the Guaranteeing Subsidiary accepts all obligations of a Guarantor under the Indenture.

(e) If
any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Issuer, any of the Guarantors (including the Guaranteeing Subsidiary), or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the
Issuer or any of the Guarantors, any amount paid either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect.

(f) The Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect
of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby.

(g) As
between the Guaranteeing Subsidiary, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 of the Indenture for the purposes
of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided
in Article 6 of the Indenture, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Guarantee.

(h) The Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the
exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under this Guarantee.

(i) Pursuant to
Section 11.02 of the Indenture, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities that are relevant under any applicable Bankruptcy or fraudulent conveyance laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to
receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under Article 11 of the Indenture, this new Guarantee shall be limited to the maximum amount permissible
such that the



D-2



---

obligations of such Guaranteeing Subsidiary under this Guarantee will not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

(j) This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or
against the Issuer for liquidation, reorganization, should the Issuer become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of the Issuers assets, and
shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Notes are, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be
restored or returned by any obligee on the Notes or Guarantees, whether as a voidable preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment or
any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Note shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

(k) In case any provision of this Guarantee shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality, and
enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

(l) This
Guarantee shall be a general senior [unsecured] [secured] obligation of such Guaranteeing Subsidiary, ranking equally in right of payment with all existing and future Senior Indebtedness of the Guaranteeing Subsidiary, [and will be effectively
subordinated to all Secured Indebtedness of such Guaranteeing Subsidiary to the extent of the value of the assets securing such Indebtedness]. The Guarantees will be senior in right of payment to all existing and future Subordinated Indebtedness of
each Guarantor. The Notes will be structurally subordinated to all Indebtedness and other liabilities of Subsidiaries of the Issuer that do not Guarantee the Notes, if any.

(m) Each payment to be made by the Guaranteeing Subsidiary in respect of this Guarantee shall be made without set-off,
counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any kind or nature.

3. EXECUTION AND
DELIVERY. The Guaranteeing Subsidiary agrees that the Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the absence of the endorsement of any notation of such Guarantee on the Notes.

4. MERGER, CONSOLIDATION OR SALE OF
ALL OR SUBSTANTIALLY ALL ASSETS.

(a) The Guaranteeing Subsidiary may not consolidate or merge with or into or wind up into (whether or not the Issuer or
Guaranteeing Subsidiary is the surviving corporation), or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties or assets, in one or more related transactions, to any Person except in compliance
with Section 5.01(c) of the Indenture.

(b) Subject to certain limitations described in the Indenture,
the Successor Person will succeed to, and be substituted for, the Guaranteeing Subsidiary under the Indenture and the Guaranteeing Subsidiarys Guarantee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Guaranteeing Subsidiary may (i) merge into or
transfer all or part of its properties and assets to another Guarantor or the Issuer, (ii) merge with an Affiliate of the Issuer solely for the purpose of reincorporating the Guaranteeing Subsidiary in the United States, any state thereof, the
District of Columbia or any territory thereof or (iii) convert into a corporation, partnership, limited partnership, limited liability corporation or trust organized or existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of organization of such
Guarantor.
