W I T N E S S E T H
WHEREAS, Hilton Worldwide Finance LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Original Issuer”) and the Original Co-Issuer have heretofore executed and delivered to the Trustee an Indenture, dated as of March 16, 2017 (as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of December 6, 2017, the Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of March 8, 2019, and the Third Supplemental Indenture, dated as of February 25, 2020, the “Indenture”) providing for the issuance of an unlimited aggregate principal amount of 4.625% Senior Notes due 2025 (the “2025 Notes”) and 4.875% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes” and, together with the 2025 Notes, the “Notes”);
WHEREAS, substantially concurrently with the execution of this Supplemental Indenture, the Original Issuer shall be merged with and into its wholly-owned direct subsidiary, the New Issuer, with the New Issuer continuing as the surviving entity (the “Merger”);
WHEREAS, Section 5.01 of the Indenture permits that the Merger may occur so long as, among other things, the New Issuer and each Existing Guarantor execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture pursuant to which (i) the New Issuer shall expressly assume the Original Issuer’s obligations under the Notes and the Indenture, whereupon the New Issuer will be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Issuer under the Indenture, and the Original Issuer shall be released from all obligations under the Notes and the Indenture and (ii) each Existing Guarantor shall expressly confirm that its Guarantee shall apply to the New Issuer’s obligations under the Notes and the Indenture;
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 5.01(a)(vi), the Original Co-Issuer is not required to continue to act as a co-obligor of the Notes because the New Issuer is a corporation but instead wishes to continue to be party to the Indenture solely in the capacity of a Guarantor; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Indenture, the Trustee is authorized to execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture without the consent of the Holders.
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 as follows:
