extinguishes any Indebtedness 

  
 14 













 (other than Indebtedness incurred or repaid 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 (including as contemplated by any such irrevocable notice of redemption), repayment, 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. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event an item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) is incurred or issued, any Lien
is incurred or other transaction is undertaken in reliance on a ratio basket based on the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Secured Net Leverage Ratio, Consolidated Total Gross Leverage Ratio, Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio and
Collateral Coverage Ratio, such ratio(s) shall be calculated with respect to such incurrence, issuance or other transaction without giving effect to amounts being utilized under any other basket (other than a ratio basket based on the Fixed Charge
Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Secured Net Leverage Ratio, Consolidated Total Gross Leverage Ratio, Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio and Collateral Coverage Ratio) on the same date. Each item of Indebtedness that is incurred or issued, each Lien
incurred and each other transaction undertaken will be deemed to have been incurred, issued or taken first, to the extent available, pursuant to the relevant Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Secured Net Leverage Ratio, Consolidated Total
Gross Leverage Ratio, Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio and Collateral Coverage Ratio Requirement. 
 This Indenture provides that any
calculation or measure that is determined with reference to the Company’s financial statements (including Consolidated EBITDA, Consolidated Interest Expense, Consolidated Net Income, Fixed Charges, Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated
Secured Net Leverage Ratio, Consolidated Total Gross Leverage Ratio and Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio) may be determined with reference to the financial statements of a parent entity instead, so long as such parent entity does not hold any
material assets other than, directly or indirectly, the Capital Stock of the Company. 
 For purposes of making the computation referred to
in the paragraph above, Investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, consolidations and disposed operations (as determined in accordance with GAAP) that have been made by the Company 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 Consolidated 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 the Company 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 (subject to the threshold specified in the previous sentence). 

  
 15 













 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 Capital Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably determined by the Company to be the rate of interest implicit in such Capital 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 prime or similar rate, a eurocurrency interbank offered rate, or
other rate, shall be deemed to have been based upon the rate actually chosen, or, if none, then based upon such optional rate chosen as the Company may designate.

provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments or record or both are delivered to the Trustee, the Collateral Agent, if applicable, and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuers. Proof of execution of

 The terms and provisions contained in the Notes shall
constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture and the Issuers, the Guarantors and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to

 Section 2.02
Execution and Authentication. 
 One Officer of each Issuer shall execute the Notes on behalf of the Issuers by manual or facsimile
signature. 
 If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time a Note is authenticated, the Note shall
nevertheless be valid. 
 A Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose until
authenticated substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto by the manual signature of the Trustee. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been duly authenticated and delivered under this Indenture. 

On the Issue Date, the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Issuer Order (an “Authentication Order”), authenticate and deliver
the Initial Notes. In addition, at any time, from time to time, the Trustee shall upon receipt of an Authentication Order authenticate and deliver (a) any Additional Notes (including any PIK Notes) for an aggregate principal amount specified in
such Authentication Order for such Additional Notes (including any PIK Notes) issued hereunder and (b) record increases in the principal amount of the Notes to reflect a PIK Payment or authenticate PIK Notes to reflect a PIK Payment, each upon

Holders or an Affiliate of the Issuers. 
 Section 2.03 Registrar and Paying Agent. 

The Issuers 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 Issuers 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 Issuers may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without prior notice to any Holder. The Issuers shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a
party to this Indenture. If the Issuers fail to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. The Issuers or any of their Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar. 

The Issuers initially appoint The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) to act as Depositary with respect to the Global Notes.

 The Issuers initially appoint the Trustee to act as the Paying Agent and Registrar 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 Issuers 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, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, and shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Issuers 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 Issuers 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 Issuers or a Subsidiary) shall have no further liability for the money. If the Issuers 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 Issuers, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Notes. 

Section 2.05 Holder Lists. 
 The
Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of all Holders and shall otherwise comply with Trust Indenture Act Section 312(a). If the Trustee is not

reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Holders of Notes and the Issuers shall otherwise comply with Trust Indenture Act Section 312(a).

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 will 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 will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note, such

any Note at the office or agency of the Issuers designated pursuant to Section 4.02 hereof, the Issuers shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, 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. 
 (8) 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 Issuers shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, 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. 
 (9) All certifications, certificates and Opinions of Counsel required to be submitted to the

 Section 2.07 Replacement Notes. 

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

 
 Every replacement Note is a contractual obligation of the Issuers 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 Issuers or an Affiliate of the Issuers 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 bona fide purchaser. 

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 Issuers, 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, Notes owned by the Issuers, or by any Affiliate of the Issuers, 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 actually 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 Issuers or any obligor upon the Notes or any Affiliate of the Issuers or of such other obligor. 
 Section 2.10 Temporary Notes. 

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

  
 57 













 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 Issuers 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 dispose of cancelled Notes (subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act) in accordance with its customary procedures. Certification of the disposal of all cancelled Notes
shall be delivered to the Issuers upon its written request. The Issuers 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 Interest. 

If the Issuers default in a payment of interest on the Notes, they shall pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent
lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest 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 Issuers shall notify the Trustee in writing of
the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Issuers shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect
of such defaulted interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such defaulted
interest as provided in this Section 2.12. The Issuers 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 interest. The Issuers shall promptly notify the Trustee of such special record date and payment date. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Issuers (or, upon the written request of the Issuers, the Trustee in the
name and at the expense of the Issuers) shall send or cause to be sent 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 Issuers 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 Issuers shall as promptly as practicable notify
the Trustee of any change in the CUSIP and/or ISIN numbers. 

  
 58 













 ARTICLE 3 

REDEMPTION 
 Section 3.01 Notices to
Trustee. 
 If the Issuers elect to redeem Notes pursuant to Section 3.07 hereof, they shall furnish to the Trustee, at least two
Business Days before notice of redemption is required to be sent or caused to be sent to Holders pursuant to Section 3.03 hereof but not more than 60 days before a Redemption Date (except that redemption notices may be delivered more than 60
days prior to a Redemption Date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture), an Officer’s Certificate setting forth (i) the paragraph or subparagraph of such Note
and/or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the redemption shall occur, (ii) the Redemption Date, (iii) the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (iv) the redemption price. 

Section 3.02 Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed. 

If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, such Notes shall be selected for redemption by the Trustee (1) if the Notes
are listed on an exchange and such listing is known to the Trustee, in compliance with the requirements of such exchange or in the case of Global Notes, in accordance with customary procedures of the Depositary or (2) on a pro rata basis
to the extent practicable, or, if the pro rata basis is not practicable for any reason, by lot or by such other method as most nearly approximates a pro rata basis subject to customary procedures of the Depositary. Such Notes to be
redeemed shall be selected, unless otherwise provided herein, not less than 10 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date from the outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption. 

The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuers in writing of the Notes selected for redemption and, in the case of any Note selected for
partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. Notes and portions of Notes selected shall be in minimum amounts of $1.00 or an integral multiple of $1.00 in excess thereof. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called
for redemption also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption. 
 The Trustee shall not be responsible for any actions taken or not
taken by DTC pursuant to its Applicable Procedures. 
 Section 3.03 Notice of Redemption. 

Subject to Section 3.09 hereof, the Issuers shall deliver notices of redemption electronically or by first-class mail, postage prepaid,
at least 15 but not more than 60 days before the purchase or Redemption Date to each Holder of Notes (with a copy to the Trustee) at such Holder’s registered address or otherwise in accordance with the procedures of DTC, except that redemption
notices may be delivered electronically or mailed more than 60 days prior to a Redemption Date if the notice is issued in connection with Article 8 or Article 11 hereof. Notices of redemption may be conditional. 

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

(a) the Redemption Date; 

  
 59 













 (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 called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price; 

(f) that, unless the Issuers default 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
number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes; and 
 (i) any condition to such redemption. 

At the Issuers’ request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Issuers’ names and at their expense; provided
that the Issuers shall have delivered written notice to the Trustee, at least two Business Days prior to the date on which notice of redemption is to be sent (unless a shorter notice shall be agreed to by the Trustee) in the form of 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 sent in accordance with Section 3.03 hereof, Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable
on the Redemption Date at the redemption price, unless such redemption is conditioned on the happening of a future event. The notice, if sent 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 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 noon (Eastern time) on the redemption or purchase date, the Issuers shall deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent money
sufficient to pay the redemption or purchase price of and accrued and unpaid interest on all Notes to be redeemed or purchased on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall promptly return to the Issuers any money deposited with the Trustee or
the Paying Agent by the Issuers in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption price of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, all Notes to be redeemed or purchased. 

  
 60 













 If the Issuers comply 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 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 Issuers 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 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 Definitive Note that is redeemed or purchased in part, the Issuers shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate for the
Holder at the expense of the Issuers 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 $1.00 or an integral multiple of $1.00 in excess thereof. It is understood that, notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, only an 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) At any time, prior to six months after the Issue Date, the Issuers may redeem all of the Notes, upon notice as described under

price equal to 109.000% of the aggregate principal 

  
 61 













 
amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon, to, but not including, the applicable Redemption Date, with the net cash proceeds received by the Issuers
from one or more Equity Offerings; provided, that (a) at least 50.0% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes originally issued under this Indenture on the Issue Date remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of each such
redemption, unless all such Notes are redeemed substantially concurrently and (b) each such redemption occurs within 90 days of the date of closing of each such Equity Offering. 

(e) Notwithstanding this Section 3.07, in connection with any tender offer for all of the outstanding Notes at such time, including a
Change of Control Offer or Asset Sale Offer, if Holders of not less than 90.0% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in such tender offer and the Issuers, or any third party making such
a tender offer in lieu of the Issuers, purchase all of the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Issuers or such third party will have the right upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more
than 30 days following such purchase date, to redeem all Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price equal to the price offered to each other Holder (excluding any early tender or incentive fee) in such tender offer
plus, to the extent not included in the tender offer payment, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon, to, but not including, the applicable Redemption Date. 

(f) Any notice of any redemption may be given prior to the redemption thereof, and any such redemption or notice may, at the Issuers’
discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, without limitation, the consummation of an incurrence or issuance of debt or equity or a Change of Control or other corporate transaction. If such redemption is so subject to
satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall describe each such condition, and if applicable, shall state that, in the Issuers’ discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time (including more than 60 days
after the date the notice of redemption was mailed or delivered, including by electronic transmission) as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, or such redemption or purchase may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that
any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date as so delayed. In addition, the Issuers may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price and performance of the Issuers’
obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person. 
 (g) If the optional Redemption Date is on or after a
Record Date and on or before the corresponding Interest Payment Date, the accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the Redemption Date will be paid on the Redemption Date to the Holder in whose name the Note is registered at the
close of business on such Record Date in accordance with the applicable procedures of DTC, and no additional interest will be payable to Holders whose Notes will be subject to redemption by the Issuers. 

(h) Any redemption pursuant to this Section 3.07 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.01 through 3.06 hereof and shall
be subject to any applicable limitations set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement and the Revolving Loan Credit Agreement. 
 Section 3.08
[Reserved]. 
 Section 3.09 Offers to Repurchase by Application of Excess Proceeds.

tendered, all Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered in response to the Asset Sale Offer. 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 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. 
 (d) Upon the commencement of an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuers shall send electronically or 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 the Asset Sale Offer. The Asset Sale Offer shall be made to all Holders and holders of
Pari Passu Indebtedness. The notice, which shall govern the terms of the Asset Sale Offer, shall state:

 (7) that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their
election if the Issuers, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives, not later than the expiration of the Offer Period, a telegram, 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; 

(8) that, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness surrendered by the holders thereof
exceeds the Offer Amount, the Company shall select the Notes (while the Notes are in global form pursuant to the procedures of the Depositary) and the Issuers shall select such Pari Passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis based
on the accreted value or principal amount of the Notes or such Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Issuers so that only Notes in denominations of $1.00 or integral multiples of $1.00 in excess
thereof shall be selected); and 

  
 63

Trustee to authenticate and mail or deliver such new Note) in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered representing the same indebtedness to the extent not repurchased; provided, that each such new Note
shall be in a minimum denomination of $1.00 or an integral multiple of $1.00 in excess thereof. Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Issuers to the Holder thereof. The Issuers shall publicly announce the results of

together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date fixed by the Issuers for redemption (a “Tax Redemption Date”) and all Additional Amounts (if any) then due and which will become due on the Tax Redemption Date as a
result of the redemption or otherwise, if the Issuers or a Guarantor as the case may be, on the next date on which any amount would be payable in respect of the Notes or any Guarantee, is or would be required to pay Additional Amounts, and the
Company, Issuers or the relevant Guarantor (but, in the case of a Guarantor, only if the payment giving rise to such requirement cannot be made by the Company, Issuers or another Guarantor, who can make such payment without the obligation to pay
Additional Amounts) cannot avoid any such payment obligation by taking reasonable measures available (including making payment through a paying agent located in another jurisdiction), as a result of: 

(a) any change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of the relevant Tax Jurisdiction
affecting taxation which change or amendment has not been formally announced before the date of this Indenture and becomes effective on or after the date of the Indenture (or, if a Tax Jurisdiction has been added since the date of this Indenture,
the date on which that Tax Jurisdiction became a Tax Jurisdiction under this Indenture); or 

  
 64 













 (b) any change in, or amendment to, the existing official position regarding the
application, administration or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings (including a holding, judgment or order by a court of competent jurisdiction or a change in published practice), which change, amendment, application or
interpretation has not been formally announced before the Issue Date (or, if a Tax Jurisdiction has been added since the Issue Date, the date on which that Tax Jurisdiction became a Tax Jurisdiction under this Indenture). 

The Issuers will not give any such notice of redemption earlier than 60 days prior to the earliest date on which the Company, the Issuers or
Guarantor, as the case may be, would be obligated to make such payment or withholding if a payment in respect of the Notes or any Guarantee were then due. Prior to the publication or, where relevant, mailing of any notice of redemption of the Notes
pursuant to the foregoing, the Issuers will deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel, to the effect that there has been such change or amendment which would obligate the Company, the Issuers or a Guarantor to make such payment or withholding and
an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that the Company, the Issuers or Guarantor, as the case may be, cannot avoid such payment or withholding by taking reasonable measures available to it. For the avoidance of doubt, reasonable measures shall
not include anything which has any material impact on the business of the Company, the Issuers or Guarantor, or which would cause the Company, the Issuers or Guarantor to incur any material costs. The Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely
on such Opinion of Counsel and Officer’s Certificate as sufficient evidence of the conditions as described above, in which event it will be conclusive and binding on all Holders. 

The provisions of this Section 3.10 shall apply mutatis mutandis to the laws and official positions of any jurisdiction in which
any successor to a payor is organized or otherwise considered to be a resident for tax purposes or any political subdivision or taxing authority or agency thereof or therein. The provisions of this Section 3.10 shall survive any termination,
defeasance or discharge of this Indenture.

In addition, to the extent not satisfied by the foregoing, for so long as the Notes remain subject to this

 (e) In the event that any direct or indirect parent company of the Company
guarantees the Notes (which shall be permitted, subject to compliance with this Indenture, at any time, at the Company’s sole discretion) or files the reports specified in Section 4.03(a) hereof with the SEC, this Indenture will permit the
Company to satisfy its obligations in this Section 4.03 with respect to the financial information relating to the Company by furnishing financial information relating to such parent; provided that the same is accompanied by consolidating
information that explains in reasonable detail the differences between the information relating to such parent, on the one hand, and the information relating to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries on a standalone basis, on the other hand.
Such parent shall not be considered a Guarantor by virtue of providing such guarantee, which may be released at any time. The obligations under this Section 4.03 may be satisfied by having the applicable entity file reports containing the
information contemplated hereby within the timeframes contemplated hereunder with the SEC. 
 Delivery of reports, information and documents
to the Trustee hereunder is for informational purposes only and the information and the Trustee’s receipt of the foregoing shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein, or determinable from information contained
therein including the Company or the Issuers’ compliance with any of their covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on an Officers’ Certificate). 

Section 4.04 Compliance Certificate. 

(a) The Issuers shall deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year ending after the Issue Date, a certificate
from the principal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting officer stating that a review of the activities of the Issuers and their Restricted Subsidiaries during the preceding fiscal year has been made under the
supervision of the signing Officer with a view to determining whether the Issuers have kept, observed, performed and fulfilled their obligations under this Indenture, and further stating, as to such Officer signing such certificate, that to the best
of his or her knowledge the Issuers have kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and every condition and covenant contained in this Indenture and are not in default in the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions, covenants and

(b) When any Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture, or if the Trustee or the holder of any other evidence of
Indebtedness of the Issuers or any Subsidiary gives any notice or takes any other action with respect to a claimed Default, the Company shall promptly (which shall be no more than 30 days upon becoming aware of any Default) deliver to the Trustee by
registered or certified mail or by facsimile transmission a statement specifying such event, its status and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. The Trustee will not be deemed to have knowledge of any Defaults
or Events of Default unless written notice of an event, which is in fact a Default, has been delivered to the Trustee by the Company, any Issuer, Guarantor or Holder at the Corporate Trust Office and such notice references the Notes and this
Indenture and states that it is a “Notice of Default.”

Section 4.06 Stay, Extension and Usury Laws. 

The Issuers and each of the Guarantors covenant (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) that they shall not at any time insist upon,
plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the
Issuers and each of the Guarantors (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waive all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenant that they shall not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of
any power herein granted to the Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law has been enacted.

Excluded Subsidiary may make Restricted Payments to the Company or any other Restricted Subsidiary;

constitutes or continues to constitute a Restricted Subsidiary, (B) Capital Expenditures or (C) acquisitions of other assets that, in each of (A), (B) and (C), either (i) are used or useful in a Similar Business or (ii) replace
in whole or in part the businesses or assets that are the subject of such Asset Sale; or 
 (3) any combination of the
foregoing;  
 provided that, in the case of Section 4.10(b)(2), a binding commitment shall be treated as a permitted
application of the Net Proceeds from the date of such commitment so long as the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary enters into such commitment with the good faith expectation that such Net Proceeds shall be applied to satisfy such commitment
within the later of (x) 180 days of such commitment and (y) 450 days after the date of the applicable Asset Sale (an “Acceptable Commitment”) and in the event any Acceptable Commitment is later cancelled or terminated for any reason
before the Net Proceeds are applied in connection therewith, then such Net Proceeds shall constitute Excess Proceeds after the later of (A) 450 days after the date of the applicable Asset Sale and (B) the termination of such Acceptable
Commitment (unless another Acceptable Commitment is entered into with respect thereto prior to such later date). 

  
 74 













 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that any of or all the Net Proceeds of any
Asset Sales by an Exempt Entity would have a material adverse tax consequence to the Issuers, the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (taking into account any foreign tax credit or benefit actually realized in connection with such
repatriation or expatriation) or is prohibited or subject to limitation by applicable local law, order, decree or determination of any arbitrator, court or governmental authority from being repatriated or expatriated to the United States or
distributed to the Company or any Guarantor that is not an Exempt Entity, the portion of such Net Proceeds so affected will not be required to be applied in compliance with this covenant, and such amounts may be retained by the applicable Exempt
Entity so long, but only so long, as applicable, as such material adverse tax consequence exists or the applicable local law will not permit repatriation or expatriation to the United States or distribution to the Company or any Guarantor (the
Company hereby agreeing to use reasonable efforts to cause the applicable Exempt Entity to take all actions reasonably required by the applicable local law, applicable organizational impediments or other impediment to permit such repatriation,
expatriation or distribution), and if such repatriation or expatriation of any of such affected Net Proceeds, as applicable, no longer has material adverse tax consequences or is permitted under the applicable local law, such repatriation or
expatriation will be promptly effected and such repatriated or expatriated Net Proceeds will be applied (whether or not repatriation or expatriation actually occurs) in compliance with this Section 4.10. 

(d) Any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale that are not invested or applied as provided and within the time period set forth in
Section 4.10(b) shall be deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds an aggregate of $10,000,000 in any fiscal year (the “Excess Proceeds Threshold”), the
Company shall make an offer to all Holders and, if and to the extent required by the terms of any Indebtedness that is pari passu in right of payment with the Notes, including, without limitation, the Last Out Term Loans (“Pari Passu
Indebtedness”), to the holders of such Pari Passu Indebtedness (an “Asset Sale Offer”), to purchase the maximum aggregate principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) of the Notes and such Pari Passu Indebtedness
that is in a minimum amount of $1.00 or an integral multiple of $1.00 in excess thereof that may be purchased in the amount equal to the sum of the Excess Proceeds (the “Excess Proceeds Payment Amount”) at an offer price in cash in
an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount or accreted value thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date fixed for the closing of such offer, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture and,
if applicable, the other documents governing the applicable Pari Passu Indebtedness. The Company shall commence an Asset Sale Offer with respect to Excess Proceeds within 15 Business Days after the date that Excess Proceeds exceed the Excess
Proceeds Threshold by sending the notice required pursuant to Section 3.09 hereof, with a copy to the Trustee. The Company may satisfy the foregoing obligation with respect to such Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale by making an Asset Sale Offer
with respect to all or a portion of the available Net Proceeds (the “Advance Portion”) in advance of being required to do so by this Indenture (the “Advance Offer”). 

(e) To the extent that the aggregate principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) of Notes and, if applicable, Pari Passu Indebtedness
tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds Payment Amount (or, in the case of an Advance Offer, the Advance Portion), the Company may use any remaining Excess Proceeds (or, in the case of an Advance Offer, the Advance
Portion) for such amount offered in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) of Notes or the Pari Passu Indebtedness surrendered by such Holders and holders thereof exceeds the
amount of Excess Proceeds (or, in the case of an Advance Offer, the Advance Portion), the Company shall select the Notes and such Pari Passu 

  
 75 













 
Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis based on the principal amount or accreted value of the Notes or such Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered with adjustments as necessary so that
no Notes or Pari Passu Indebtedness, as the case may be, shall be repurchased in part in an unauthorized denomination. Upon completion of any such Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero, but in the case of an Advance
Offer, the amount of Net Proceeds the Company is offering to apply in such Advance Offer shall be excluded in subsequent calculations of Excess Proceeds. Additionally, upon consummation or expiration of any Advance Offer, any remaining Net Proceeds
shall not be deemed Excess Proceeds and the Company may use such Net Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited under this Indenture. 

(f) Pending the final application of an amount equal to the 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 (including under the Revolving Loan Credit Agreement) or otherwise invest such Net Proceeds in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture.

 (g) The Company 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 and regulations are applicable in connection with each repurchase of Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or
regulations conflict with the provisions of this Indenture, the Company shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.10 by virtue of such
compliance. 
 Section 4.11 Transactions with Affiliates. 

(a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to directly or indirectly enter into any transaction
(including without limitation any transaction with the Permitted Holdco), including any purchase, sale, lease or exchange of Property, the rendering of any service or the payment of any management, advisory or similar fees (including all guaranties
and assumptions of obligations thereof), with (a) any officer, director, holder of any Equity Interests in, or other Affiliate of, the Company, the Issuers or any of their respective Subsidiaries or (b) any Affiliate of any such officer,
director or holder involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $1,000,000, other than: 

(i) transactions existing on the Issue Date; 

(ii) transactions between any Issuer or Guarantor and any other Issuer or Guarantor not prohibited hereunder; 

(iii) other transactions in the ordinary course of business on terms at least as favorable to the Issuers and Guarantors
and their respective Restricted Subsidiaries as would be obtained by it on a comparable arm’s-length transaction with an independent, unrelated third party as determined in good faith by the board of
directors (or equivalent governing body) of the Company; 
 (iv) employment, severance and other similar compensation
arrangements (including equity incentive plans and employee benefit plans and arrangements) with their respective officers, directors and employees in the ordinary course of business; 

(v) payment of customary fees and reasonable out of pocket costs to, and indemnities for the benefit of, directors,
officers and employees of the Company, the Issuers and their respective Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business to the extent attributable to the ownership or operation of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries; 

  
 76 













 (vi) payments or reimbursements to any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company
to fund ordinary course operating costs and expenses, including but not limited to intercompany services, payroll expenses and accrued and unpaid taxes; and 

(vii) Restricted Payments (including payments to the Company or its direct or indirect parent) permitted by
Section 4.07 hereof. 
 Section 4.12 Liens. 

The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly create, incur, assume or permit to exist any
Lien (except Permitted Liens) (each, an “Initial Lien”) that secures Obligations under any Indebtedness or any related Guarantee, on any asset or property of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, unless: 

(1) in the case of Initial Liens on any Collateral such Lien is a Permitted Lien; or 

(2) in the case of any Initial Lien on any asset or property that is not Collateral, (i) the Notes or the Guarantees
are equally and ratably secured with (or on a senior basis to, in the case such Initial Lien secured any Subordinated Indebtedness) the Obligations secured by such Initial Lien until such time as such Obligations are no longer secured by such
Initial Lien or (ii) such Initial Lien is a Permitted Lien, except that the foregoing shall not apply to Liens securing the Notes and the related Guarantees. 

Any Lien created for the benefit of Holders of the Notes in respect of property, assets or proceeds that do not constitute Collateral pursuant
to this covenant shall provide by its terms that such Lien will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release and discharge of the Initial Lien. 

With respect to any Lien securing Indebtedness that was permitted to secure such Indebtedness at the time of the incurrence of such
Indebtedness, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness. The “Increased Amount” of any Indebtedness shall mean any increase in the amount of such Indebtedness in connection with any
accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, accretion of original issue discount or liquidation preference and
increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the Exchange Rate of currencies or increases in the value of property securing Indebtedness. 

Section 4.13 Corporate Existence. 

Except as otherwise provided in Article 5 and Section 10.06 hereof, the Company shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to
preserve and keep in full force and effect (i) its existence, corporate, partnership, limited liability company or otherwise, and the corporate, partnership, limited liability company or other existence of each of its Restricted Subsidiaries,
in accordance with the respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to time) of the Company or any such Restricted Subsidiary and (ii) the rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of the Issuers and
each Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to preserve any such right, license or franchise or the corporate, partnership, or other existence of any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, where the
failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 

  
 77 













 Section 4.14 Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control. 

(a) If a Change of Control occurs, unless the Issuers have previously or substantially concurrently therewith delivered a redemption notice
with respect to all the outstanding Notes as described under Section 3.07 hereof and clause (e) of this Section 4.14, the Issuers shall make an offer to purchase all of the Notes pursuant to the offer described below (the
“Change of Control Offer”) at a price in cash (the “Change of Control Payment”) equal to 101.0% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of
purchase. Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Issuers shall send notice of such Change of Control Offer by electronic delivery in accordance with the procedures of DTC or first-class mail, with a copy to the Trustee, to each Holder
of Notes to the address of such Holder appearing in the security register or otherwise in accordance with DTC’s applicable procedures, with the following information: 

(1) that a Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this covenant, and that all Notes properly tendered pursuant
to such Change of Control Offer shall be accepted for payment by the Issuers; 
 (2) the purchase price and the purchase
date, which shall be no earlier than 15 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is delivered except in the case of a conditional Change of Control Offer made in advance of a Change of Control as described below (the “Change of
Control Payment Date”); 
 (3) that any Note not properly tendered shall remain outstanding and continue to accrue
interest; 
 (4) that unless the Issuers default in the payment of the Change of Control Payment, all Notes accepted for
payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer shall cease to accrue interest on the Change of Control Payment Date; 

(5) that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their tendered Notes and their election to require the Issuers to purchase
such Notes; provided that the Paying Agent receives, not later than the close of business on the second Business Day prior to the expiration date of the Change of Control Offer, a facsimile transmission, electronic transmission or letter
setting forth the name of the Holder of the Notes, the principal amount of Notes tendered for purchase, and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its tendered Notes and its election to have such Notes purchased; 

(6) that Holders whose Notes are being purchased only in part shall be issued new Notes and such new Notes shall be equal
in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered. The unpurchased portion of the Notes must be equal to at least $1.00 or any integral multiple of $1.00 in excess thereof; 

(7) if such notice is delivered prior to the occurrence of a Change of Control, stating that the Change of Control Offer
is conditional on the occurrence of such Change of Control and describing each such condition; and 
 (8) the other
instructions, as determined by the Issuers, consistent with this Section 4.14, that a Holder must follow. 
 To the extent that the
provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Section 4.14, the Issuers comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations, then the Issuers shall not be deemed to have breached their obligations
under this Section 4.14 by virtue thereof. 

  
 78 













 (b) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuers shall, to the extent permitted by
law, 
 (1) accept for payment all Notes issued by it or portions thereof properly tendered pursuant to the Change of
Control Offer, 
 (2) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the aggregate Change of Control Payment in
respect of all Notes or portions thereof so tendered, and 
 (3) deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Trustee for
cancellation the Notes so accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee stating that such Notes or portions thereof have been tendered to and purchased by the Issuers. 

(c) The Issuers shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control if a 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 Issuers 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. 
 (d) 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. 

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuers (or their successor following such Change of Control transaction) may elect, within 120 days
following the consummation of such Change of Control, to redeem for cash all (and not less than all) of the outstanding Notes at a redemption price equal to, if the redemption is (x) prior to (but not including) the second anniversary of the
Issue Date, the sum of (1) 101% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus (2) accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date; or (y) after the second anniversary of the Issue Date, the
applicable redemption price. 
 Section 4.15 Limitation on Guarantees of Indebtedness by Restricted Subsidiaries. 

The Company shall not permit any of its Wholly Owned Subsidiaries (and non-Wholly Owned Subsidiaries
if such non-Wholly Owned Subsidiaries guarantee, or are a co-issuer of, other capital markets debt securities of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary or guarantee
all or a portion of, or are a co-borrower under, the Senior Credit Facilities) that are Restricted Subsidiaries, other than a Guarantor, to Guarantee the payment of any Indebtedness of the Company, the Issuers
or any Guarantor, unless such Restricted Subsidiary within 15 days (i) executes and delivers a supplemental indenture to this Indenture, the form of which is attached as Exhibit D hereto, providing for a Guarantee by such Restricted
Subsidiary, except that with respect to a guarantee of Indebtedness of the Company, the Issuers or any Guarantor, if such Indebtedness is by its express terms subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or such Guarantor’s Guarantee, any such
guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary with respect to such Indebtedness shall be subordinated in right of payment to such Guarantee substantially to the same extent as such Indebtedness is subordinated to the Notes or such Guarantor’s
Guarantee of the Notes and (ii) executes and delivers a supplement or joinder to the Security Documents or new Security Documents and takes all actions required thereunder to perfect the Liens created thereunder; provided that if such


  
 79 













 
Indebtedness is by its express terms subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or such Guarantor’s Guarantee, any such guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary with respect to such
Indebtedness shall be subordinated in right of payment to such Guarantee with respect to the Notes substantially to the same extent as such Indebtedness is subordinated to the Notes or such Guarantor’s Guarantee of the Notes; provided
that this Section 4.15 shall not be applicable in the event that the Guarantee of the Company’s obligations under the Notes or this Indenture by such Subsidiary would not be permitted under Applicable Law. 

The Company may elect, in its sole discretion, to cause any Subsidiary that is not otherwise required to be a Guarantor to become a Guarantor,
in which case, such Subsidiary shall not be required to comply with the 15-day period described above and such Guarantee may be released at any time in the Company’s sole discretion so long as any
Indebtedness of such Subsidiary then outstanding could have been incurred by such Subsidiary (either (x) when so incurred or (y) at the time of the release of such Guarantee) assuming such Subsidiary were not a Guarantor at such time. 

Section 4.16 Discharge and Suspension of Covenants. 

(a) If on any date following the Issue Date (i) the Notes have Investment Grade Ratings from two Rating Agencies (“Investment
Grade Status”), and (ii) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture (the occurrence of the events described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) being collectively referred to as a “Covenant
Suspension Event”), the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries will not be subject to Section 4.07 hereof, Section 4.08 hereof, Section 4.09 hereof, Section 4.10 hereof, Section 4.11 hereof, Section 4.14
hereof, Section 4.15 hereof, Section 4.18 hereof, Section 4.20 hereof, Section 4.21 hereof, Section 4.22 hereof and clause (3) of Section 5.01(a) hereof (collectively, the “Suspended Covenants”).

 (b) In the event that the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries are not subject to the Suspended Covenants hereunder for any period of
time as a result of the foregoing, and on any subsequent date (the “Reversion Date”) the Notes cease to have such Investment Grade Status, then the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall thereafter again be subject to the
Suspended Covenants under this Indenture with respect to future events. The period of time between the occurrence of a Covenant Suspension Event and the Reversion Date is referred to in this Section 4.16 as the “Suspension
Period.” Additionally, upon the occurrence of a Covenant Suspension Event, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset to zero. 

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of any such reinstatement, no action taken or omitted to be taken by the Company or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries or events occurring prior to such reinstatement shall give rise to a Default or Event of Default hereunder with respect to the Notes; provided that (1) with respect to Restricted Payments made after any such
reinstatement, the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments shall be calculated as though Section 4.07 hereof had been in effect prior to, but not during the Suspension Period, provided that any Subsidiaries designated as Unrestricted
Subsidiaries during the Suspension Period shall automatically become Restricted Subsidiaries on the Reversion Date (subject to the Company’s right to subsequently designate them as Unrestricted Subsidiaries in compliance with the covenants set
forth below), (2) all Indebtedness incurred, or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock issued, during the Suspension Period shall be classified as having been incurred or issued as of the Issue Date pursuant to clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of
Section 4.09(b) hereof, (3) any Affiliate Transaction entered into after the Reversion Date pursuant to an agreement entered into during any Suspension Period shall be deemed to be permitted pursuant to clause (i) of
Section 4.11(a) hereof and (4) any encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Non-Guarantor Subsidiary to take any action described in clauses (1) through (3) of Section 4.08 hereof
that becomes effective during any Suspension Period shall be deemed to be permitted pursuant to Section 4.08(a) hereof. No default or Event of Default will be deemed to have occurred on the Reversion Date as a result of any actions taken by the
Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries during the Suspension Period. 

  
 80 













 (d) On and after each Reversion Date, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall be permitted to
consummate the transactions contemplated by any contract entered into during the Suspension Period, so long as such contract and such consummation would have been permitted during such Suspension Period. 

(e) The Issuers shall deliver promptly to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate notifying it of any such occurrence under this
Section 4.16. 
 (f) The Trustee shall have no duty to monitor the ratings of the Notes, determine whether a Covenant Suspension Event
or Reversion Date has occurred or notify Holders of the same. 
 Section 4.17 Additional Amounts. 

(a) All payments made by or on behalf of the Issuers or a Successor Issuer under or with respect to the Notes (whether or not in the form of
Definitive Notes) or any of the Guarantors on their Guarantee (including in each case any Successor Person) shall be made without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, unless the withholding or deduction of
such taxes is then required by law. If any deduction or withholding for, or on account of, any taxes imposed or levied by or on behalf of any jurisdiction in which the Issuers or any Guarantor (including in either case any Successor Issuer or
Successor Person, as applicable) is incorporated, organized, carrying on a business through a branch, agency or permanent establishment or resident for tax purposes or any political subdivision thereof or therein or any jurisdiction by or through
which payment is made by or on behalf of the Issuers or any Guarantor (including in either case any Successor Issuer or Successor Person, as applicable) under or with respect to the Notes or Guarantees or any political subdivision thereof or therein
(each, a “Tax Jurisdiction”) will at any time be required to be made from any payments made by or on behalf of the Issuers or Successor Issuers under or with respect to the Notes or any of the Guarantors or Successor Persons with
respect to any Guarantee, including payments of principal, redemption price, purchase price, interest or premium, the Issuers or the relevant Guarantor (including in either case any Successor Issuer or Successor Person), as applicable, shall pay
such additional amounts (the “Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary in order that the net amounts received by each holder in respect of such payments after such withholding or deduction (including any such deduction or
withholding from such Additional Amounts) will equal the respective amounts that would have been received by each holder in respect of such payments in the absence of such withholding or deduction; provided, however, that no Additional
Amounts will be payable with respect to: 
 (i) any taxes to the extent such taxes would not have been imposed but for
the Holder or the beneficial owner of the Notes (or a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, partner of, member or shareholder of, or possessor of a power over, the relevant Holder, if the relevant Holder is an estate, trust, nominee, partnership, limited
liability company or corporation) being or having been a citizen or resident or national of, incorporated, present, or engaged in a trade or business in, or having or having had a permanent establishment in, the relevant Tax Jurisdiction in which
such taxes are imposed or having any other (actual or deemed) present or former connection with the relevant Tax Jurisdiction other than by the acquisition or holding of, exercise or enforcement of rights under, or the receipt of payments in respect
of, the Notes, this Indenture or any Guarantee; 

  
 81 













 (ii) any taxes to the extent such taxes are imposed or withheld as a
result of the failure of the Holder or beneficial owner of the Notes to comply with any written request, made at least 30 days before any such withholding or deduction would be payable, by the Issuers or any of the Guarantors (including in either
case any Successor Issuer or Successor Person, as applicable) to provide timely and accurate information concerning the nationality, residence or identity of such Holder or beneficial owner or to make any valid or timely declaration or similar claim
or satisfy any certification, information or other reporting requirement, which is required or imposed by a statute, treaty, regulation or administrative practice of the relevant Tax Jurisdiction as a precondition to exemption from all or part of,
or reduction in the rate of deduction or withholding of, such taxes (in each case, to the extent such Holder or beneficial owner is legally entitled to do so); 

(iii) any taxes imposed or withheld as a result of the presentation of any Note for payment (where Notes are in the form of
Definitive Notes and presentation is required) more than 30 days after the relevant payment is first made available for payment to the Holder (except to the extent that the Holder or beneficial owner would have been entitled to Additional Amounts
had the Note been presented on the last day of such 30 day period); 
 (iv) any estate, inheritance, gift, sale, transfer,
personal property or similar tax, assessment or excise taxes; 
 (v) any taxes payable otherwise than by deduction or
withholding on or in respect of any Note or Guarantee; 
 (vi) any taxes that were imposed with respect to any payment
on a Note to any Holder who is a fiduciary or partnership or person other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment to the extent that no Additional Amounts would have been payable had the beneficial owner of the applicable Notes been the
Holder of such Note; 
 (vii) any taxes that are imposed or withheld pursuant to Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code,
as of the issue date (or any amended or successor version of such sections), any regulations promulgated thereunder, any official interpretations thereof, any similar law or regulation adopted pursuant to an intergovernmental agreement between a non-U.S. jurisdiction and the United States with respect to the foregoing or any agreements entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b)(1) of the Code; 

(viii) any taxes imposed in connection with a Note presented for payment by or on behalf of a Holder or beneficial owner
of such Note to the extent such taxes could have been avoided by presenting the relevant Note to, or otherwise accepting payment from, another Paying Agent; 

(ix) any taxes imposed as a result of the Holder or beneficial owner being or having been (i) a “10-percent shareholder” of the Issuer as defined in Section 871(h)(3) of the Code or any successor provision or (ii) a controlled foreign corporation that is related to the Issuer within the
meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Code or any successor provision; 
 (x) any taxes imposed as a result of the
Holder or beneficial owner being a bank receiving payments on an extension of credit made pursuant to a loan agreement entered into in the ordinary course of its trade or business, as described in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code or any
successor provision; 
 (xi) any Taxes imposed by reason of the Holder’s or beneficial owner’s past or present
status as a passive foreign investment company, a controlled foreign corporation, a foreign tax-exempt organization or a personal holding company with respect to the United States or as a corporation that
accumulates earnings to avoid U.S. federal income tax; 

  
 82 













 (xii) any combination of items (i) through (xi) above. 

(b) In addition to the foregoing, the Issuers and the Guarantors (including in either case any Successor Issuer or Successor Person, as
applicable) will also pay any present or future stamp, issue, registration, transfer, court or documentary taxes, or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies or taxes which are levied by any Tax Jurisdiction on the execution,
delivery, issuance or registration of, or by any Tax Jurisdiction on the enforcement of, any of the Notes, this Indenture, any Guarantee, or any other document or instrument referred to therein, or the receipt of any payments with respect to the
Notes or the Guarantees (other than, in each case, in connection with a transfer of the Notes after the Issue Date and limited, solely to the extent of such taxes, charges, or similar attributable to the receipt of any payments, to any such taxes or
similar charges or levies imposed in a Tax Jurisdiction that are not excluded under clauses (a)(i) through (a)(iv) and (a)(vi) through (a)(xi) above or any combination thereof). 

(c) If the Issuers or any Guarantor, as the case may be, becomes aware that it will be obligated to pay Additional Amounts with respect to any
payment under or with respect to the Notes or any Guarantee, the Issuers or the relevant Guarantor, as the case may be, will deliver to the Trustee and the paying agent on a date that is at least 10 days prior to the date of that payment an
Officer’s Certificate stating the fact that Additional Amounts will be payable, the amount estimated to be so payable and such other information reasonably necessary to enable the paying agent to pay Additional Amounts on the relevant payment
date. The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall be entitled to rely absolutely and solely on such Officer’s Certificate as conclusive proof that such payments are necessary. 

(d) The Issuers or the relevant Guarantor will make all withholdings and deductions as required by law and will remit the full amount deducted
or withheld to the tax authority in the relevant Tax Jurisdiction in accordance with Applicable Law. The Issuers or the relevant Guarantor will use its reasonable efforts to obtain tax receipts from each tax authority evidencing the payment of any
taxes so deducted or withheld from each relevant Tax Jurisdiction. The Issuers or the relevant Guarantor will furnish to the Trustee, within a reasonable time after the date the payment of any taxes so deducted or withheld is made, certified copies
of tax receipts evidencing payment by the Issuers or a Guarantor, as the case may be, or if, notwithstanding such entity’s efforts to obtain receipts, receipts are not obtained, other evidence of payment (reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee)
by such entity. 
 (e) Whenever in this Indenture there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of amounts based upon the principal amount
of the Notes or of principal, interest or of any other amount payable under, or with respect to, any of the Notes or Guarantees, such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such
context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof. 
 (f) The above obligations will survive any termination,
defeasance or discharge of this Indenture, any transfer by a Holder or beneficial owner of its Notes and will apply, mutatis mutandis, to any jurisdiction in which any successor Person to the Issuers or any Guarantor is incorporated, organized,
engaged in business through a branch, agency or permanent establishment or otherwise resident for tax purposes or any jurisdiction from or through which any payments made by or on behalf of the Issuers or any Guarantors (including in either case any
Successor Issuer or Successor Person, as applicable) under or with respect to the Notes or any Guarantee is made and any department or political subdivision thereof or therein. 

  
 83 













 Section 4.18 Payments and Modifications of Other Indebtedness. 

(a) The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to:

quarter end) would constitute a Significant Subsidiary), as the case may be, denies in writing that it has any further liability under its Guarantee or gives written notice to such effect, other than by reason of the termination of this Indenture or
the release of any such Guarantee in accordance with this Indenture; 
 (9) with respect to any Collateral, individually or
in the aggregate, having a fair market value in excess of $10,000,000, any of the Security Documents ceases to be in full force and effect, or any of the Security Documents ceases to give the Holders of the Notes the Liens purported to be created
thereby with the priority contemplated thereby, or any of the Security Documents is declared null and void or the Company or any Guarantor denies in writing that it has any further liability under any Security Document or gives written notice to
such effect (in each case other than in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents), except to the extent that any loss of perfection or priority results from the failure of the Collateral
Agent to maintain possession of certificates actually delivered to it representing securities pledged under the Security Documents, or otherwise results from an action (but not an omission) constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct on the
part of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, in each case, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final non-appealable judgment; provided, that if a failure of the sort described
in this clause (9) is susceptible of cure (including with respect to any loss of Lien priority on material portions of the Collateral), no Event of Default shall arise under this clause (9) with respect thereto until 60 days after notice
of such failure shall have been given to the Company by the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25.0% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes issued under this Indenture (with a copy to the Trustee); 

(10) after a Permitted Holdco Event has occurred and for so long as the conditions set forth in the definition of
“Permitted Holdco Event” are met, (i) the Permitted Holdco, the Company or any other related party shall fail to comply with the terms of the Permitted Holdco Undertaking or (ii) the Permitted Holdco Undertaking shall cease to be
in full force and effect for any reason; or 
 (11) any Issuer, Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof shall
default in any material respect in the observance or performance of any other agreement or condition relating to the PCbtH Service Contract or BOP Lease Agreement, or any other event shall occur or condition exist in relation to the PCbtH Service
Contract or BOP Lease Agreement, if such default or other event or condition could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, individually or in the aggregate for all such defaults, events, or conditions. 

(b) In the event of any Event of Default specified in clause (4) of 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 action by the Trustee or the Holders, if within 20 days after
such Event of Default arose: 
 (1) the Indebtedness or guarantee that is the basis for such Event of Default has been
discharged; or 

  
 95 













 (2) holders thereof have rescinded or waived the acceleration, notice or
action (as the case may be) giving rise to such Event of Default; or 
 (3) the default that is the basis for such Event
of Default has been cured. 
 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, (a) the Trustee by written notice to the Issuers or (b) the Holders of at least 25.0% in aggregate principal amount of the then total outstanding Notes by written notice to the Issuers and Trustee may
declare the principal, premium (if any) interest and any other monetary obligations on all the then outstanding Notes to be due and payable immediately. Any time period to cure any actual or alleged Default or Event of Default may be extended or
stayed by a court of competent jurisdiction. Upon the effectiveness of such declaration, such principal, premium (if any), interest and any other monetary obligations on all the then outstanding Notes shall be due and payable immediately. The
Trustee shall have no obligation to accelerate 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 outstanding Notes shall be due and payable immediately without further action or notice. 

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may, by written notice to the Trustee on behalf of all
of the Holders, rescind an acceleration and its consequences; provided, that such rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and all existing Events of Default (except nonpayment of
principal, interest, or premium (if any) that has become due solely because of the acceleration) have been cured or waived. 
 Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that if the Notes are accelerated or otherwise become due prior to their stated maturity, in each case, in respect of any Event of Default under clause (6) or (7) of
Section 6.01(a) hereof (each an “Acceleration Event”), the Applicable Premium with respect to an optional redemption of the Notes shall also be due and payable as though the Notes had been optionally redeemed in full at the
time of such Acceleration Event and shall constitute part of the Obligations payable to Holders of the Notes in view of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining actual damages. By mutual agreement of the parties, the Applicable
Premium is a reasonable calculation of each Holder’s loss as a result of any such Acceleration Event. If the Applicable Premium becomes due and payable, it shall be deemed to be principal of the Notes, and interest shall accrue on the full
principal amount of the Notes (including the Applicable Premium) from and after the applicable triggering Acceleration Event. Any Applicable Premium payable above shall be deemed to be the liquidated damages sustained by each Holder of the Notes as
the result of the acceleration of the Notes, and the Issuers agree that such Applicable Premium is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing. The Applicable Premium shall also be payable in the event the Notes (and/or this Indenture) are
satisfied, released or discharged by foreclosure (whether by power of judicial proceeding or otherwise), deed in lieu of foreclosure or by any other similar means. THE ISSUERS EXPRESSLY WAIVE (TO THE FULLEST EXTENT THEY MAY LAWFULLY DO SO) THE
PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE APPLICABLE PREMIUM IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH ACCELERATION. Each Issuer expressly agrees (to the fullest extent they may lawfully do so) that:
(A) the Applicable Premium is reasonable and the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated parties, ably represented by counsel; (B) the Applicable Premium shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market
rates at the time acceleration occurs; (C) there has been a course of conduct between the Holders of the Notes and the Issuers giving specific consideration in this 

  
 96 













 
transaction for such agreement to pay the Applicable Premium; and (D) the Issuers shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph. Each Issuer
expressly acknowledges that its agreement to pay the Applicable Premium to the Holders of the Notes as herein described is a material inducement to the Holders to purchase the Notes. 

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, premium, if any, and interest 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. 

(a) The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice to the Trustee may on behalf
of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default and its consequences under this Indenture, except a continuing Default in the payment of interest on, premium, if any, or the principal of any Note held by a non-consenting Holder (including in connection with an Asset Sale Offer, a Change of Control Offer or an Other Last Out Debt Repayment Offer); provided that, subject to Section 6.02 hereof, the Holders
of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes 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 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. 

(b) In the event of any Event of Default specified in clause (4) of Section 6.01(a) above, 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 action by the Trustee or the Holders, if within 20 days after
such Event of Default arose: 
 (1) the Indebtedness or guarantee that is the basis for such Event of Default has been
discharged; or 
 (2) holders thereof have rescinded or waived the acceleration, notice or action (as the case may be)
giving rise to such Event of Default; or 
 (3) the default that is the basis for such Event of Default has been cured. 

  
 97 













 Section 6.05 Control by Majority. 

Subject to Section 7.01(e) hereof, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then total outstanding Notes may direct the
time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee or the Collateral Agent and the Trustee or the Collateral Agent may act
at the written direction of the Holders without liability. The Trustee or Collateral Agent, 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 or Collateral Agent in personal liability (it being understood that the Trustee has no duty to determine whether any such action is prejudicial to any Holder or beneficial owner of the
Notes). 
 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 written notice that an Event of Default is continuing; 

(2) Holders of at least 25.0% in aggregate principal amount of the total outstanding Notes have requested the Trustee to
pursue the remedy; 
 (3) Holders of the Notes have offered and, if requested, provide to the Trustee indemnity or
security satisfactory to the Trustee 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; 
 (5) Holders of a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the total outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a written direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period; and 

(6) Such action does not violate the Intercreditor Agreement. 

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, premium, if any, and
interest on the Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Note (including in connection with an Asset Sale Offer, a Change of Control Offer or an Other Last Out Debt Repayment 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 Section 6.01(a)(1) or (2) 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 Issuers for the whole amount of principal of, premium, if any, and interest remaining unpaid on the Notes and interest on overdue principal and, to the
extent lawful, interest and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel. 

  
 98 













 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 Issuers, 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), the Collateral Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Collateral Agent, its agents and counsel) and the Holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuers (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, the Collateral Agent, their agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee or Collateral Agent under Section 7.07 hereof. To the
extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, the Collateral Agent, their 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


  
 99 













 
receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize
or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder 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. 

If the Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article 6, it shall pay out the money or property in the following order: 

(1) to the Trustee, the Collateral Agent, their agents and attorneys for amounts due under Section 7.07 hereof, including
payment of all compensation, expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and the costs and expenses of collection; 

(2) to Holders of Notes for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for principal, premium, if any, and interest, ratably,
without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for principal, premium, if any, and interest, respectively; and 

(3) to the Issuers 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 payment to Holders of Notes pursuant to this Section 6.13.

 Section 6.14 Undertaking for Costs. 

In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted
by it as a Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’
fees, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 6.14 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder of a Note pursuant
to Section 6.07 hereof, or a suit by Holders of more than 10.0% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes. 
 ARTICLE 7 

TRUSTEE 
 Section 7.01 Duties of
Trustee. 
 (a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (which is known to the Trustee), the Trustee shall exercise such
of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs. 

  
 100 













 (b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default: 

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

(2) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the
correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture. However, in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are
specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of
mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein). 
 (c) the Trustee may not be relieved from liabilities for its own grossly
negligent action, its own grossly negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that: 
 (1) this
Section 7.01(c) does not limit the effect of Section 7.01(b); 
 (2) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error
of judgment made in good faith, unless it is proved in a court of competent jurisdiction that the Trustee was grossly negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and 

(3) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with
a direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.05 hereof. 
 (d) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of
this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 7.01 and Section 7.02(f). 

(e) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under this Indenture at the request or direction of any
of the Holders of the Notes, unless the Holders have offered, and if requested, provided to the Trustee indemnity or security satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense. 

(f) The Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the Issuers.
Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
 Section 7.02 Rights of Trustee
and Collateral Agent. 
 (a) The Trustee and the Collateral Agent may conclusively rely upon any resolution, certificate, statement,
instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, direction, approval or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. The Trustee and the Collateral Agent need not
investigate any fact or matter stated in the resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, direction, approval or other paper or document, but the Trustee and the Collateral Agent, in their
discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the
books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney at the sole cost of the Company and shall incur no liability or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation. 

  
 101 













 (b) Before the Trustee or the Collateral Agent acts or refrains from acting, they may
require an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both. Neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent shall 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 and the Collateral Agent may consult with counsel of its selection and the advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel or both 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 and the Collateral Agent may act
through their 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 and the Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any action they take or omit to take in good faith that they believe 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 Issuers shall be sufficient if signed by an Officer of the Issuers. 
 (f) None
of the provisions of this Indenture shall require the Trustee or the Collateral Agent to expend or risk their own funds or otherwise to incur any liability, financial or otherwise, in the performance of any of their duties hereunder, or in the
exercise of any of their rights or powers if they shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or security or indemnity satisfactory to them against such risk or liability is not assured to them. 

(g) Neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default unless the Trustee or the
Collateral Agent, as applicable, has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a Default is received by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, from the Company, any Issuer, Guarantor or Holder
at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or Collateral Agent, respectively, and such notice references the Notes and this Indenture. 

(h) In no event shall the Trustee or the Collateral Agent be responsible or liable for special, indirect, punitive or consequential loss or
damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee or the Collateral Agent 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 and the Collateral Agent, including, without limitation,
its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent in each of its capacities hereunder, and each Agent, agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder. 

(j) The Trustee and the Collateral Agent may request that the Issuers and any Guarantor deliver an Officer’s Certificate setting forth
the names of the individuals and/or titles of Officers (with specimen signatures) authorized at such times to take specific actions pursuant to this Indenture, which Officer’s Certificate may be signed by any person specified as so authorized
in any certificate previously delivered and not superseded. 

  
 102 













 (k) The Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall not be required to give any bond or surety in
respect of the performance of its powers and duties hereunder. 
 (l) The permissive right of the Trustee and the Collateral Agent to take
or refrain from taking any actions enumerated herein shall not be construed as a duty. 
 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 Issuers or any
Affiliate of the Issuers 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. The Collateral Agent and 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 Issuers’ use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Issuers or upon the Issuers’ 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 actually known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall send 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, premium, if any, or interest 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 from the Company, any Issuer, Guarantor or Holder at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee. 

Section 7.06 Reports by Trustee to Holders of the Notes. 

Within 60 days after each April 1, beginning with April 1, 2022, and for so long as Notes remain outstanding, the Trustee shall send
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 send all reports as required by Trust Indenture Act Section 313(c). 

A copy of each report at the time it is sent to the Holders of Notes shall be mailed to the Issuers 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 Issuers shall promptly notify the Trustee when the Notes are listed on any stock exchange. 

  
 103 













 Section 7.07 Compensation and Indemnity. 

The Issuers shall pay to the Trustee and Collateral Agent 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. Neither the Trustee’s nor Collateral Agent’s compensation shall be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuers shall reimburse
the Trustee and Collateral Agent 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 and Collateral Agent’s agents and counsel. 
 The Company, Issuers and the Guarantors,
jointly and severally, shall indemnify the Trustee and the Collateral Agent, each of their officers, directors, employees and agents for, and hold the Trustee and Collateral Agent harmless against, any and all loss, damage, claim, 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 Company,
Issuers and the Guarantors (including this Section 7.07) or defending itself against any claim whether asserted by any Holder, the Company, Issuers or any Guarantors, or liability in connection with the acceptance, exercise or performance of
any of its powers or duties hereunder). The Trustee or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall notify the Issuers promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee or Collateral Agent, as applicable, to so notify the
Issuers shall not relieve the Issuers of their obligations hereunder. The Issuers shall defend the claim and the Trustee and Collateral Agent may have separate counsel and the Issuers shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel. The Issuers need
not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Trustee or Collateral Agent through the Trustee’s or Collateral Agent’s, respectively, own willful misconduct or gross negligence, in each case,
as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final non-appealable judgment. 
 The
obligations of the Company, Issuers and the Guarantors under this Section 7.07 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or the earlier resignation or removal of the Trustee or Collateral Agent. 

To secure the payment obligations of the Company, Issuers 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 or the earlier resignation or
removal of the Trustee. 
 When the Trustee or Collateral Agent incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in
Section 6.01(a)(6) or (7) 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 in writing at any time and be discharged from the trust hereby created by so notifying the Issuers. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then
outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Issuers in writing. The Issuers may remove the Trustee if: 

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

  
 104 













 (b) the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or 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 Issuers 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 Issuers. 

If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee (at the
Issuers’ expense), the Issuers or the Holders of at least 10.0% in 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 Issuers. Thereupon, the
resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall send 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. 
 In case at the time such successor or
successors by merger, conversion or consolidation to the Trustee will succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture, any of the Notes will have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of
authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver such Notes so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Notes will not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any
predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates will have the full force which it is anywhere in the Notes or in this Indenture.

Collateral Agent shall be responsible for filing any financing or continuation statements or recording any documents or instruments in any public office at any time or times or otherwise perfecting or maintaining the perfection of any security

 ARTICLE 8 

LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE 

Section 8.01 Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 

The Issuers may, at their option and at any time, elect to have either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof applied to all outstanding Notes upon
compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article 8. 
 Section 8.02 Legal Defeasance and Discharge. 

Upon the Issuers’ exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, the
Issuers 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 Issuers 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 clauses (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 written demand of and at the expense of the Issuers, shall execute such instruments reasonably requested by the Issuers 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, premium, if any, and interest 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 Issuers’ 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; 

(c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee, and the Issuers’ obligations in connection therewith; and 

(d) this Section 8.02. 

Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Issuers may exercise their 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 Issuers’ exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Issuers 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, 4.18, 4.19, 4.20, 4.21 and 4.22 hereof and clauses (3) and (4) of Section 5.01(a) and Sections 5.01(b) 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 

  
 107 













 
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 Issuers 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, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, Sections 6.01(a)(3), 6.01(a)(4), 6.01(a)(5), 6.01(a)(6) (solely with respect to
Restricted Subsidiaries that are Significant Subsidiaries), 6.01(a)(7) (solely with respect to Restricted Subsidiaries that are Significant Subsidiaries) and 6.01(a)(8) hereof shall not constitute Events of Default. 

Section 8.04 Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. 

The following shall be the conditions to the application of either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof to the outstanding Notes: 

(1) the Issuers must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, cash in
U.S. dollars, Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest due on the
Notes on the stated maturity date or on the Redemption Date, as the case may be, of such principal, premium, if any, or interest on such Notes and the Issuers must specify whether such Notes are being defeased to maturity or to a particular
Redemption Date; 
 (2) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of
Counsel confirming that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, 
 (a) the Issuers have received from, or
there has been published by, the United States Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or 
 (b) since the issuance of the
Notes, 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
shall 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 Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming
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 a result of such Covenant Defeasance and shall 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; 

  
 108 













 (4) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a
breach or violation of, or constitute a default under the Senior Credit Facilities or any other material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which, the Issuers or any Guarantor are a party or by which the Issuers or any Guarantor
are 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); 

(5) the Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the
Issuers with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any creditors of the Issuers or any Guarantor or others; and 

(6) the Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel (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 Issuers or a Guarantor acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and
to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 

The Issuers shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or Government
Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes. 

Anything in this Article 8 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Issuers from time to time upon the written
request of the Issuers 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. 

Section 8.06 Repayment to Issuers. 

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

  
 109 













 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 Issuers’ obligations under the Note Documents 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 Issuers make any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuers 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. 
 ARTICLE 9

Notwithstanding Section 9.02 hereof, the Issuers, any Guarantor (with respect to a Guarantee or this Indenture), the Trustee and the
Collateral Agent, as applicable, may amend or supplement any Note Documents without the consent of any Holder and the Issuers may direct the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, and the Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall (upon receipt of the

(13) to make any amendment to the provisions of this Indenture relating to the transfer and legending of Notes as permitted by

or ministerial in nature) in connection with an amendment, renewal, extension, substitution, refinancing, restructuring, replacement, supplementing or other modification from time to time of the Senior Credit Facilities or any other agreement that

 Upon the request of the Issuers and upon receipt by the Trustee and Collateral Agent, if applicable,
of the documents described in Section 9.06 hereof, the Trustee and Collateral Agent, if applicable, shall join with the Company, Issuers and the Guarantors in the execution of any amended or supplemental indenture authorized or permitted by the
terms of this Indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee or Collateral Agent, if applicable, shall not be obligated to enter into such amended or supplemental indenture
that affects its own rights, duties, benefits, privileges, protections, indemnities or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Opinion of Counsel shall be required in connection with the addition of a
Guarantor under this Indenture upon (i) execution and delivery by such Guarantor and the Trustee of a supplemental indenture to this Indenture, the form of which is attached as Exhibit D hereto and (ii) delivery of an Officer’s
Certificate complying with the provisions of Sections 9.06, 12.04 and 12.05 hereof. 
 Section 9.02 With Consent of Holders of Notes. 

Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, the Issuers, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent, as applicable, may amend or supplement
any Note Documents with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Notes (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any increases thereof as the result of a PIK Payment, any PIK Notes and Additional Notes, if any) then
outstanding voting as a single class (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes), and, subject to Sections 6.04 and 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, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, except a payment default resulting from an acceleration that has been rescinded) or compliance with any provision of
this Indenture, the Guarantees or the Notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including Additional Notes, if any) voting as a single class (including consents
obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes). Section 2.08 and Section 2.09 hereof shall determine which Notes are considered to be “outstanding” for the purposes of this
Section 9.02. 
 Upon the request of the Issuers and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the
consent of the Holders of Notes as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee and Collateral Agent, if applicable, of the documents described in Section 9.06 hereof, the Trustee and Collateral Agent, if applicable, shall join with the Issuers
in the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture or amendment or supplement to Note Documents unless such amended or supplemental indenture or amendment or supplement to any Note Documents affects the Trustee’s or Collateral
Agent’s own rights, duties, benefits, privileges, protections, indemnities or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee and Collateral Agent, if applicable, may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to,
enter into such amended or supplemental indenture. 

  
 112 













 It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders of Notes under this
Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver. It shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance of the proposed amendment or supplement. A consent to any amendment, supplement or waiver
under this Indenture by any Holder given in connection with a tender of such Holder’s Notes will not be rendered invalid by such tender. 

After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Issuers shall send to the Holders of Notes
affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. The failure to give such notice to all the Holders, or any defect in the notice will not impair or affect the validity of any such amendment, supplement or waiver.
Furthermore, by its acceptance of the Notes, each Holder of the Notes is deemed to have consented to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements and the Security Documents and to have authorized and directed the Trustee and the Collateral Agent, as
applicable, to execute, deliver and perform each of the Intercreditor Agreements and Security Documents to which it is a party, binding the Holders to the terms thereof. 

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 (other than provisions relating to Section 3.09, Section 4.10, Section 4.14 and Section 4.21 hereof to the extent that
any such amendment or waiver does not have the effect of reducing the principal of or changing the fixed final maturity of any such Note or altering or waiving the provisions with respect to the redemption of such 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 Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes 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; 
 (6) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to waivers of past
Defaults or the rights of Holders to receive payments of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the Notes; 
 (7)
make any change in these amendment and waiver provisions; 
 (8) impair the right of any Holder to institute suit for the
enforcement of any payment of principal of, or interest on such Holder’s Notes on or after the due dates therefor; 

(9) make any change to or modify the ranking of the Notes that would adversely affect the Holders; or 

  
 113 













 (10) except as expressly permitted by this Indenture, modify or release the
Guarantees in any manner materially adverse to the Holders of the Notes. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the consent of the
Holders of at least 66-2/3% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, no amendment or waiver may (A) make any change in any Security Document or the provisions in this Indenture dealing
with Collateral or application of trust proceeds of the Collateral with the effect of releasing the Liens on all or substantially all of the Collateral which secure the Obligations in respect of the Notes or (B) change or alter the priority of
the Liens securing the Obligations in respect of the Notes in any Collateral in any way materially adverse, taken as a whole, to the Holders, other than, in each case, as provided under the terms of this Indenture, the Security Documents or the
Intercreditor Agreement. 
 Section 9.03 [Reserved]. 

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. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms
and thereafter binds every Holder. 
 The Issuers 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. 
 Section 9.05 Notation on or
Exchange of Notes. 
 The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter
authenticated. The Issuers in exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver. 

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 and Collateral Agent, if applicable, 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, benefits, privileges, protections, indemnities or immunities of the Trustee or Collateral Agent, if applicable. The Issuers may not sign an amendment, supplement or
waiver until the board of directors approves it. In executing any amendment, supplement or waiver, the Trustee and Collateral Agent, if applicable, shall be entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof) shall be fully protected in
relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 12.04 hereof, an 

  
 114 













 
Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and an Opinion of Counsel
stating that such amendment, supplement or waiver is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuers and any Guarantors party thereto, enforceable against them in accordance with its terms, subject to customary exceptions, and complies with
the provisions hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing and upon satisfaction of the requirements set forth in the last sentence of Section 9.01 hereof, no Opinion of Counsel shall be required for the Trustee to execute any amendment or supplement
adding a new Guarantor under this Indenture. 
 ARTICLE 10 

GUARANTEES 
 Section 10.01 Guarantee.

 Subject to this Article 10, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, to each
Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Issuers
hereunder or thereunder, that: (a) the principal of, interest, and premium 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 Issuers to the Holders, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent 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
or any amendment of any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuers, 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 Issuers, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuers, 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, the
Collateral Agent or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this Section 10.01. 
 If any Holder, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent
is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Issuers, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Issuers or the Guarantors, any amount paid either to the Trustee, the
Collateral Agent or such Holder, this Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect. 

  
 115 













 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, the Trustee and the
Collateral Agent, 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 Issuers for liquidation or reorganization, should the Issuers 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 Issuers’ 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 Guarantee
issued by any Guarantor shall be a general secured senior obligation of such Guarantor and shall be pari passu in right of payment with all existing and future senior Indebtedness of such 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 10.02 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 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 will, 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 10, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under Applicable Law or to comply with
corporate benefit, financial assistance and other laws. 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. 

  
 116 













 Each Guarantor shall waive any and all of its rights under the existing or future laws of
Guernsey, whether by virtue of the droit de division or otherwise, to require that any liability under or in connection with this Indenture be divided or apportioned with any other person or reduced in any manner whatsoever, and whether by
virtue of the droit de discussion or otherwise, to require that recourse be had to the assets of any other person before any claim is enforced against it. 

Section 10.03 Execution and Delivery. 

To evidence its Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 hereof, each Guarantor hereby agrees that this Indenture shall be executed on behalf
of such Guarantor by its President, one of its Vice Presidents, one of its Assistant Vice Presidents or its Chief Financial Officer. 
 Each
Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 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 Issuers
shall cause any newly created or acquired Restricted Subsidiary to comply with the provisions of Section 4.15 hereof and this Article 10, to the extent applicable. 

Section 10.04 Subrogation. 
 Each
Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of Holders of Notes against the Issuers in respect of any amounts paid by any Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of Section 10.01 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 Issuers under this Indenture or the Notes shall have been
paid in full. 
 Section 10.05 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. 
 Section 10.06
Release of Guarantees. 
 A Guarantee by a Guarantor shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged, and no
further action by such Guarantor, the Issuers or the Trustee is required for the release of such Guarantor’s Guarantee, upon: 

(1) (A) any sale, exchange, transfer or other disposition (by merger, amalgamation, consolidation or otherwise) of the Capital
Stock of such Guarantor (including any sale, exchange or transfer), after which the applicable Guarantor is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary; or any sale, exchange or transfer of all or substantially all the assets of such Guarantor, in either case
which sale, exchange or transfer is made in compliance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture; 

  
 117 













 (B) upon the merger, amalgamation or consolidation of any Guarantor
with and into an Issuers or another Guarantor or upon the liquidation of such Guarantor, in each case, in compliance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture;

applicable provisions of this Indenture or the occurrence of any event after which the Guarantor is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary;

Indebtedness of the Company under the Revolving Loan Credit Agreement and the Last Out Term Loan Agreement (except a discharge or release by or as a result of payment in connection with the enforcement of remedies under such guarantee or direct
obligation) unless at the time of such release or discharge such Guarantor is then a guarantor or an obligor in respect of any other Indebtedness that would require it to provide a Guarantee pursuant to Section 4.15 hereof; or (ii) in the
case of a Guarantee made by a Guarantor (each, an “Other Guarantee”) as a result of its guarantee of other Indebtedness of either Issuer or the Company or a Guarantor pursuant to Section 4.15 hereof, the relevant Indebtedness,
except in the case of (i) or (ii), a release as a result of (x) payment in full under such guarantee (it being understood that a release subject to a contingent reinstatement is still considered a release, and if any such Guarantee of such
Guarantor under such Senior Credit Facilities or any Other Guarantee is so reinstated, such Guarantee shall also be reinstated), (y) a refinancing or replacement in full of the Senior Credit Facilities (other than the Notes) and/or such other
Indebtedness; 
 (F) solely if such Guarantor does not guarantee Indebtedness (or commitments in respect thereof) (other
than the Notes) (for the avoidance of doubt, prior to giving effect to any release pursuant to this clause (F)) immediately prior and during the Suspension Period; provided, that such Guarantee shall be reinstated upon the Reversion Date or,
if earlier, the guarantee by such Guarantor of Indebtedness (or commitments in respect thereof) with pari passu lien priority relative to the Notes (for the avoidance of doubt, prior to giving effect to any release pursuant to this clause (F)); and

 (G) as described under Article 9 hereof; and 

(2) the Issuers delivering to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all
conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture relating to such transaction have been complied with.

replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust, have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

accordance with Section 11.01 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 Issuers’ 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 11.01 hereof; provided, that if the Issuers have made any payment of principal of,
premium, if any, or interest on any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuers 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

 124 













 
objection to any suit, action, or proceeding that may be brought in connection with this Indenture, the Guarantees or the Notes, including such actions, suits or proceedings relating to

Section 12.19 Currency Indemnity. 

United States dollars are the sole currency (the “Required Currency”) of account and payment for all sums payable by the Issuers or
any Guarantor under or in connection with the Notes, this Indenture and the Guarantees, including damages. Any amount with respect to the Notes, this Indenture the Guarantees or the other Note Documents received or recovered in a currency other than
the Required Currency, whether as a result of, or the enforcement of, a judgment or order of a court of any jurisdiction, in the winding-up or dissolution of the Issuers or any Guarantor or otherwise by any
Holder or by the Trustee or Paying Agent or Collateral Agent, in respect of any sum expressed to be due to it from the Issuers or any Guarantor will only constitute a discharge to the Issuers or any Guarantor to the extent of the Required Currency
amount which the recipient is able to purchase with the amount so received or recovered in that other currency on the date of that receipt or recovery (or, if it is not practicable to make that purchase on that date, on the first date on which it is
practicable to do so). 
 If the Required Currency amount is less than the Required Currency amount expressed to be due to the recipient or
the Trustee or Paying Agent or Collateral Agent under the Notes, the Issuers and each Guarantor will indemnify such recipient and/or the Trustee or Paying Agent or Collateral Agent against any loss sustained by it as a result. In any event, the
Issuers and each Guarantor will indemnify the recipient against the cost of making any such purchase. For the purposes of this currency indemnity provision, it will be prima facie evidence of the matter stated therein, for the Holder of a Note or
the Trustee or Paying Agent or Collateral Agent to certify in a manner satisfactory to the Issuers (indicating the sources of information used) the loss it incurred in making any such purchase. These indemnities constitute a separate and independent
obligation from the Issuers’ and each Guarantor’s other obligations, will give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, will apply irrespective of any waiver granted by any Holder of a Note or the Trustee or Paying Agent or
Collateral Agent (other than a waiver of the indemnities set out herein) and will continue in full force and effect despite any other judgment, order, claim or proof for a liquidated amount in respect of any sum due under any Note or to the Trustee
or Collateral Agent. For the purposes of determining the amount in a currency other than the Required Currency, such amount shall be determined using the Exchange Rate then in effect. 

  
 125 













 Section 12.20 Waiver of Immunity.

basis of sovereignty or otherwise) from jurisdiction, service of process, attachment (both before and after judgment) and execution to which it might otherwise be entitled in any court of competent jurisdiction, and with respect to any judgment,
each party waives any such immunity in any court of competent jurisdiction, and will not raise or claim or cause to be pleaded any such immunity at or in respect of any such proceeding or judgment, including, without limitation, any immunity
pursuant to the United States Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976, as amended.

Intercreditor Agreement to which it is a party. The Issuers and the Guarantors shall deliver to the Collateral Agent copies of all documents required to be filed pursuant to the Security Documents, and will do or cause to be done all such acts and
things as required by the next sentence of this Section 13.01, to assure and confirm to the Collateral Agent an Acceptable Security Interest in the Collateral (subject to the Agreed Security Principles (as defined in the Last Out Term Loan
Agreement) and the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement), by the Security Documents or any part thereof, as from time to time constituted, so as to render the same available for the security and benefit of this Indenture and of the Notes and the
Guarantees secured hereby, according to the intent and purposes herein and therein expressed. The Issuers and the Guarantors shall, and the Company shall cause its Subsidiaries to, take any and all actions and make all filings, registrations and
recordations (including the filing of UCC financing statements, continuation statements and amendments thereto) required to cause the Security Documents to create, perfect and maintain, as security for the Obligations of the Issuers and the
Guarantors to the Noteholder Secured Parties under this Indenture, the Notes, the Guarantees, the Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents, an Acceptable Security Interest in and on all of the Collateral (subject to the Agreed Security
Principles and the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents), in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Noteholder Secured Parties 

  
 126 













 subject to no Liens other than Permitted Liens. For the avoidance of doubt, the Trustee and the Collateral
Agent shall not have a Lien on the Excluded Property. Subject to the applicable limitations set forth in the Security Documents and herein, if after the Issue Date, any material assets (other than Excluded Property) are acquired by either Issuer or
any Guarantor or are held by any Subsidiary on or after the time it becomes a Guarantor hereunder (other than assets constituting Collateral under a Security Document that becomes subject to the Lien created by such Security Document upon
acquisition thereof or assets constituting Excluded Property), and if the Company has granted a security interest in such assets to the Collateral Agent to secure the Senior Credit Facilities Obligations (other than the Notes), the Company will
cause such assets to be subjected to a Lien securing the Secured Obligations and will take and cause the Issuers to take, such actions as shall be necessary to grant and perfect such Liens, all at the expense of the Issuers. 

Section 13.02 Non-Impairment of Liens.

provisions of the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement, as applicable, but subject to any restrictions thereon set forth in this Indenture or the Intercreditor Agreement. 

(b) With respect to any release of Collateral, upon receipt of an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel each stating that all
conditions precedent under this Indenture and the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement, as applicable, to such release have been met and that it is proper for the Trustee or Collateral Agent to execute and deliver the documents
requested by the Issuers in connection with such release, and any instruments of termination, satisfaction, discharge or release prepared by the Issuers, the Trustee shall, or shall cause the Collateral Agent to, execute, deliver or acknowledge (at
the Issuers’ expense), and file with any applicable Governmental Authority, such instruments or releases to evidence or effect the release and discharge of any Collateral permitted to be released pursuant to this Indenture or the Security
Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement. Neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent shall be liable for any such release undertaken in reliance upon any such Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel, and notwithstanding any term hereof or
in any Security Document or in the Intercreditor Agreement to the contrary, neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent shall be under any obligation to release any such Lien and security interest, or execute and deliver any such instrument of
release, satisfaction, discharge or termination, unless and until it receives such Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel addressed to it. 

Section 13.04 Suits to Protect the Collateral. 

Subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Trustee, without the consent of the Holders, on behalf of the Holders, may
direct the Collateral Agent to take all actions it determines in order to: 
 (a) enforce any of the terms of the
Security Documents; and 
 (b) collect and receive any and all amounts payable in respect of the Obligations hereunder.

 128 













 Documents or this Indenture, and such suits and proceedings as the Collateral Agent may determine (or as
directed by the Trustee) to preserve or protect its interests and the interests of the Holders in the Collateral. Nothing in this Section 13.04 shall be considered to impose any such duty or obligation to act on the part of the Trustee or the
Collateral Agent. 
 Section 13.05 Authorization of Receipt of Funds by the Trustee Under the Security Documents. 

Subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Trustee is authorized to receive any funds for the benefit of the Holders
distributed under the Security Documents, and to make further distributions of such funds to the Holders according to the provisions of this Indenture and the Intercreditor Agreement. 

Section 13.06 Purchaser Protected. 

In no event shall any purchaser in good faith of any property purported to be released hereunder be bound to ascertain the authority of the
Collateral Agent or the Trustee to execute the release or to inquire as to the satisfaction of any conditions required by the provisions hereof for the exercise of such authority or to see to the application of any consideration given by such
purchaser or other transferee; nor shall any purchaser or other transferee of any property or rights permitted by this Article 13 to be sold be under any obligation to ascertain or inquire into the authority of the Issuers or the applicable
Guarantor to make any such sale or other transfer. 
 Section 13.07 Powers Exercisable by Receiver or Trustee. 

In case the Collateral shall be in the possession of a receiver or trustee, lawfully appointed, the powers conferred in this Article 13 upon
the Issuers or a Guarantor with respect to the release, sale or other disposition of such property may be exercised by such receiver or trustee, and an instrument signed by such receiver or trustee shall be deemed the equivalent of any similar
instrument of the Issuers or a Guarantor or of any Officer or Officers thereof required by the provisions of this Article 13; and if the Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall be in the possession of the Collateral under any provision of this
Indenture, then such powers may be exercised by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable.

Issuers’ Obligations.

or prior to the time such principal, together with accrued and unpaid interest, are paid or (ii) the Issuers shall have exercised their Legal Defeasance option or their Covenant Defeasance option, in each case in compliance with the provisions
of Article 8, and an Opinion of Counsel stating that all conditions precedent to the execution and delivery of such notice by the Trustee have been satisfied, the Trustee shall deliver to the Issuers and the Collateral Agent a notice stating that
the Trustee, on behalf of the Holders, disclaims and gives up any and all rights it has in or to the Collateral (other than with respect to funds held by the Trustee pursuant to Article 8), and any rights it has under the Security Documents, and
upon receipt by the Collateral Agent of such notice, the Collateral Agent shall be deemed not to hold a Lien in the Collateral on behalf of the Trustee and shall do or cause to be done all acts reasonably requested by the Issuers to release and
discharge such Lien as soon as is reasonably practicable in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents. 

  
 129 













 Section 13.09 Collateral Agent. 

(a) By their acceptance of the Notes, the Holders hereby designate and appoint Wells Fargo Bank, National Association to serve as Collateral
Agent and as their collateral agent under this Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement, and agree not to assert any claim (including as a result of any conflict of interest) against the Collateral Agent arising from its
role as Collateral Agent under the Note Documents, so long as it is acting in accordance with the terms of such Note Documents. Each of the Holders by acceptance of the Notes and the Trustee hereby irrevocably authorizes the Collateral Agent to take
such action on their behalf under the provisions of this Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement, and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms of this
Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement, and consents and agrees to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, and each Security Document, as the same may be in effect or may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise
modified from time to time in accordance with their respective terms. Wells Fargo Bank, National Association hereby agrees to serve as Collateral Agent under the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement, and acknowledges that the
Collateral Agent agrees to act as such on the express conditions contained in this Section 13.09. The provisions of this Section 13.09 are solely for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and none of the Trustee, any of the Holders nor any
of the Grantors shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions contained herein other than as expressly provided in Section 13.04. Each Holder agrees that any action taken by the Collateral Agent in accordance with
the provisions of this Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement, and the exercise by the Collateral Agent of any rights or remedies set forth herein and therein shall be authorized and binding upon all Holders.
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement, the duties of the Collateral Agent shall be ministerial and administrative in nature, and the Collateral
Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Note Documents to which the Collateral Agent is a party, nor shall the Collateral Agent have or be deemed to have any trust or other
fiduciary relationship with the Trustee, any Holder, any Grantor or any other Person, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Indenture, the Security Documents or the
Intercreditor Agreement, or otherwise exist against the Collateral Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” in this Indenture with reference to the Collateral Agent is not intended to
connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any Applicable Law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative
relationship between independent contracting parties. 
 (b) The Collateral Agent may perform any of its duties under this Indenture, the
Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement, by or through receivers, agents, employees, attorneys-in-fact or through its officers, directors, Affiliates,
employees, agents, advisors, and attorneys in fact (collectively, “Related Persons”) and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties, and shall be entitled to act upon, and shall be fully
protected in taking action in reliance upon any advice or opinion given by legal counsel. The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or willful misconduct of any receiver, agent, employee, attorney-in-fact or Related Person that it selects as long as such selection was made in good faith. 

(c) None of the Collateral Agent or any of its Related Persons shall (i) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of
them under or in connection with this Indenture or the transactions contemplated hereby (except to the extent that the foregoing are found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction to have resulted from its own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or under or in connection with any Security Document or the Intercreditor Agreement, or the transactions contemplated thereby (except to the extent that the foregoing
are found by 

  
 130 













 a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction to have resulted from its own gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (ii) be responsible in any manner to any of the Trustee or any Holder for any recital, statement, representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by the
Company, the Issuers or any Grantor or Affiliate of any Grantor, or any Officer or Related Persons thereof, contained in this Indenture, or any other Note Documents, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided
for in, or received by, the Collateral Agent under or in connection with, this Indenture, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Indenture, the
Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement, or for any failure of any Grantor or any other party to this Indenture, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement, to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. None of the
Collateral Agent or any of its respective Related Persons shall be under any obligation to the Trustee or any Holder to monitor, ascertain or inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this
Indenture, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement, or to inspect the properties, books, or records of any Grantor or any Grantor’s Affiliates. 

(d) The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent,
certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, certification, telephone message, statement, or other communication, document or conversation (including those by telephone or e-mail) believed by it to be
genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent, or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to the Issuers or any Grantor), independent accountants and other
experts and advisors selected by the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request,
direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, or other paper or document. The Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Indenture, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement, unless it
shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Trustee or the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes as it determines, or if there are any Secured Obligations then outstanding, the applicable “Authorized
Representative” under the Intercreditor Agreement (if other than the Collateral Agent) and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Holders (or holders of Secured Obligations (if applicable)) against any and
all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Collateral Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Indenture, the Security
Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement, in accordance with a written request, direction, instruction or consent of the Trustee or the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes, or if there are any Secured
Obligations then outstanding, the applicable “Authorized Representative” under the Intercreditor Agreement (if other than the Collateral Agent) and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon
all of the Holders and holders of Secured Obligations (if applicable). 
 (e) The Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or
notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, unless a Responsible Officer of the Collateral Agent shall have received written notice from the Trustee or the Issuers referring to this Indenture, describing such Default or Event of
Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” The Collateral Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by the Trustee in accordance with Article 6 or the Holders of a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes (subject to this Section 13.09 and the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement). 

(f) The Collateral Agent may resign at any time by notice to the Trustee and the Issuer, such resignation to be effective upon the acceptance
of a successor agent to its appointment as Collateral Agent. If the Collateral Agent resigns under this Indenture or the Intercreditor Agreement, the 

  
 131 













 Issuers shall appoint a successor Collateral Agent. If no successor Collateral Agent is appointed prior to
the intended effective date of the resignation of the Collateral Agent (as stated in the notice of resignation), the Collateral Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Trustee, subject to the consent of the Issuers (which shall not be
unreasonably withheld and which shall not be required during a continuing Event of Default), a successor Collateral Agent. If no successor Collateral Agent is appointed and consented to by the Issuer pursuant to the preceding sentence within thirty
(30) days after the intended effective date of resignation (as stated in the notice of resignation) the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor. Upon the acceptance of its
appointment as successor Collateral Agent hereunder, such successor Collateral Agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent, and the term “Collateral Agent” or “Collateral Agent” (as
applicable) in the Note Documents shall mean such successor Collateral Agent, and the retiring Collateral Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as the Collateral Agent shall be terminated. After the retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation
hereunder, the provisions of this Section 13.09 (and Section 7.07) shall continue to inure to its benefit and the retiring Collateral Agent shall not by reason of such resignation be deemed to be released from liability as to any actions
taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Collateral Agent under this Indenture or the Intercreditor Agreement. 
 (g) The
Collateral Agent shall be authorized to appoint co-Collateral Agents as necessary in its sole discretion. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its respective officers, directors, employees or agents or
other Related Persons shall be liable to any Grantor or any Noteholder Secured Party for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of
any Collateral upon the request of any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. The Collateral Agent shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the
exercise of such powers, and neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, attorneys, representatives or agents shall be responsible for any act or failure to act hereunder, except to the extent such act is found by a
final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. 

(h) By their acceptance of the Notes hereunder, the Collateral Agent is authorized and directed by the Holders to (i) enter into the
Security Documents to which it is party, whether executed on or after the Issue Date, (ii) enter into the Intercreditor Agreement, (iii) bind the Holders on the terms as set forth in the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement,
(iv) make the representations of the Holders set forth in the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement, (v) perform and observe its obligations under the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement and (vi) release
any Collateral in accordance with the terms hereof. 
 (i) If at any time or times the Trustee shall receive (i) by payment,
foreclosure, set-off or otherwise, any proceeds of Collateral or any payments with respect to the Obligations arising under, or relating to, this Indenture, except for any such proceeds or payments received by
the Trustee from the Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, or (ii) payments from the Collateral Agent in excess of the amount required to be paid to the Trustee pursuant to Article 7, the Trustee shall promptly turn the same
over to the Collateral Agent, in kind, and with such endorsements as may be required to negotiate the same to the Collateral Agent, such proceeds to be applied by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, the Security Documents
and the Intercreditor Agreement. 
 (j) The Collateral Agent is each Holder’s agent for the purpose of perfecting the Holders’
security interest in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code can be perfected only by possession. Should the Trustee obtain possession of any such Collateral, upon request from the Issuer, the Trustee shall notify
the Collateral Agent thereof and promptly shall deliver such Collateral to the Collateral Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with the Collateral Agent’s instructions. 

 

  
 132 













 (k) The Collateral Agent (and the Trustee) shall have no obligation whatsoever to the
Trustee, any of the Holders, or any of the Noteholder Secured Parties to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by any Grantor or is cared for, protected, or insured or has been encumbered, or that the Collateral Agent’s Liens have been
properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected, maintained or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to determine whether all of the Grantor’s property constituting collateral intended to be subject to the
Lien and security interest of the Security Documents has been properly and completely listed or delivered, as the case may be, or the genuineness, validity, marketability or sufficiency thereof or title thereto, or to exercise at all or in any
particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure, or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities, and powers granted or available to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Indenture, any Security Document or the
Intercreditor Agreement, other than pursuant to the instructions of the Trustee or the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes or if there are Secured Obligations then outstanding, the applicable “Authorized
Representative” under the Intercreditor Agreement (if other than the Collateral Agent), or as otherwise provided in the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any
act, omission, or event related thereto, the Collateral Agent shall have no other duty or liability whatsoever to the Trustee, any Holder, or any Noteholder Secured Party as to any of the foregoing. 

(l) If the Issuers or any Guarantor (i) incurs any obligations in respect of Secured Obligations at any time when no Intercreditor
Agreement is in effect or at any time when Indebtedness constituting Pari Passu Indebtedness entitled to the benefit of an existing Intercreditor Agreement is concurrently retired, and (ii) delivers to the Collateral Agent an Officer’s
Certificate so stating and requesting the Collateral Agent to enter into an intercreditor agreement (on substantially the same terms as the Intercreditor Agreement) in favor of a designated agent or representative for the holders of the Secured
Obligations so incurred, the Collateral Agent shall (and is hereby authorized and directed to) enter into such Intercreditor Agreement (at the sole expense and cost of the Issuers, including reasonable legal fees and expenses of the Collateral
Agent), bind the Holders on the terms set forth therein and perform and observe its obligations thereunder. To the extent an intercreditor agreement is already then in existence, if the Issuers or any Guarantor (i) incurs any additional Secured
Obligations and (ii) delivers to the Collateral Agent an Officer’s Certificate so stating and requesting the Collateral Agent to enter into a joinder to such intercreditor agreement in favor of a designated agent or representative for the
holders of such Secured Obligations, the Collateral Agent shall (and is hereby authorized and directed to) enter into such joinder (at the sole expense and cost of the Issuers, including reasonable legal fees and expenses of the Collateral Agent).
If the Issuers or any Guarantor (i) incurs any Obligations in respect of Indebtedness secured by the Collateral with junior lien priority relative to the Notes and the Guarantees at any time when no Intercreditor Agreement is in effect or at
any time when Indebtedness constituting Indebtedness secured by the Collateral with junior lien priority relative to the Notes and the Guarantees entitled to the benefit of an existing Intercreditor Agreement is concurrently retired, and
(ii) delivers to the Collateral Agent an Officer’s Certificate so stating and requesting the Collateral Agent to enter into an intercreditor agreement (substantially in form of the Intercreditor Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit E) in
favor of a designated agent or representative for the holders of the Obligations in respect of Indebtedness secured by the Collateral with junior lien priority relative to the Notes and the Guarantees so incurred, the Collateral Agent shall (and is
hereby authorized and directed to) enter into such Intercreditor Agreement (at the sole expense and cost of the Issuers, including reasonable legal fees and expenses of the Collateral Agent), bind the Holders on the terms set forth therein and
perform and observe its obligations thereunder. To the extent an intercreditor agreement is already then in existence, if the Issuers or any Guarantor (i) incurs any additional Obligations in respect of Indebtedness secured by the Collateral
with junior lien priority relative to the Notes and the Guarantees and (ii) delivers to the Collateral Agent an Officer’s Certificate 

  
 133 













 so stating and requesting the Collateral Agent to enter into a joinder to such intercreditor agreement in
favor of a designated agent or representative for the holders of such Obligations in respect of Indebtedness secured by the Collateral with junior lien priority relative to the Notes and the Guarantees, the Collateral Agent shall (and is hereby
authorized and directed to) enter into such joinder (at the sole expense and cost of the Issuers, including reasonable legal fees and expenses of the Collateral Agent). By its acceptance of the Notes, each Holder shall be deemed to have authorized
and directed the Collateral Agent to enter into and perform its obligations under the Intercreditor Agreement. 
 (m) No provision of this
Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreement or any Security Document shall require the Collateral Agent (or the Trustee) to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or
thereunder or to take or omit to take any action hereunder or thereunder or take any action at the request or direction of Holders (or the Trustee in the case of the Collateral Agent) or, if there are Secured Obligations then outstanding, the
applicable “Authorized Representative” under the Intercreditor Agreement (if other than the Collateral Agent) unless the Collateral Agent shall have received indemnity satisfactory to the Collateral Agent against potential costs and
liabilities incurred by the Collateral Agent relating thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreement, or the Security Documents, in the event the Collateral Agent is entitled or required to
commence an action to foreclose or otherwise exercise its remedies to acquire control or possession of the Collateral, the Collateral Agent shall not be required to commence any such action or exercise any remedy or to inspect or conduct any studies
of any property under any mortgages or take any such other action if the Collateral Agent has determined that the Collateral Agent may incur personal liability as a result of the presence at, or release on or from, the Collateral or such property,
of any hazardous substances unless the Collateral Agent has received security or indemnity from the Holders (and the holders of Secured Obligations (if applicable)) in an amount and in a form all satisfactory to the Collateral Agent in its sole
discretion, protecting the Collateral Agent from all such liability. The Collateral Agent shall at any time be entitled to cease taking any action described above if it no longer reasonably deems any indemnity, security or undertaking from the
Issuers or the Holders (or holders of Secured Obligations (if applicable)) to be sufficient. 
 (n) The Collateral Agent (i) shall not
be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in connection with this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreement, or the Security Documents or any instrument referred to herein or therein, except to the extent that any of the foregoing are
found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, (ii) shall not be liable for interest on any money
received by it except as the Collateral Agent may agree in writing with the Issuers (and money held in trust by the Collateral Agent need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law) and (iii) may consult with
counsel of its selection and the advice or opinion of such counsel as to matters of law shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, omitted or suffered by it in good faith and in accordance
with the advice or opinion of such counsel. The grant of permissive rights or powers to the Collateral Agent shall not be construed to impose duties to act. 

(o) In no event shall the Collateral Agent be responsible or liable for any special, indirect, punitive, incidental or consequential loss or
damage or any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, lost profits) irrespective of whether the Collateral Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. 

(p) The Collateral Agent does not assume any responsibility for any failure or delay in performance or any breach by the Issuers or any other
Grantor under this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreement, and the Security Documents. The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible to the Holders or any other Person for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties
contained in any Note Documents or in any certificate, report, statement, or other document referred to or provided for in, 

  
 134 













 or received by the Collateral Agent under or in connection with, this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreement
or any Security Document; the execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of the Intercreditor Agreement, and any Security Documents as to any other party thereto; the genuineness, enforceability, collectability, value,
sufficiency, location or existence of any Collateral, or the validity, effectiveness, enforceability, sufficiency, extent, perfection or priority of any Lien therein; the validity, enforceability or collectability of any Obligations; the assets,
liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business, creditworthiness or legal status of any obligor; or for any failure of any obligor to perform its Obligations under this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreement, and the Security
Documents. The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to any Holder or any other Person to ascertain or inquire into the existence of any Default or Event of Default, the observance or performance by any obligor of any terms of this Indenture,
the Intercreditor Agreement, and the Security Documents, or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent contained in this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreement, and any Security Document. The Collateral Agent shall not be required to initiate or
conduct any litigation or collection or other proceeding under this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreement, and the Security Documents unless expressly set forth hereunder or thereunder or as directed by Holders of a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the Notes or, if Secured Obligations are then outstanding, the applicable “Authorized Representative” under the Intercreditor Agreement (if other than the Collateral Agent). The Collateral Agent shall have the right at any time
to seek instructions from the Holders with respect to the administration of the Note Documents. 
 (q) The parties hereto and the Holders
hereby agree and acknowledge that the Collateral Agent shall not assume, be responsible for or otherwise be obligated for any liabilities, claims, causes of action, suits, losses, allegations, requests, demands, penalties, fines, settlements,
damages (including foreseeable and unforeseeable), judgments, expenses and costs (including but not limited to, any remediation, corrective action, response, removal or remedial action, or investigation, operations and maintenance or monitoring
costs, for personal injury or property damages, real or personal) of any kind whatsoever, pursuant to any environmental law as a result of this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreement, and the Security Documents or any actions taken pursuant hereto
or thereto. Further, the parties hereto and the Holders hereby agree and acknowledge that in the exercise of its rights under this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreement, and the Security Documents, the Collateral Agent may hold or obtain indicia of
ownership primarily to protect the security interest of the Collateral Agent in the Collateral, including without limitation the properties constituting real property that constitute Collateral, and that any such actions taken by the Collateral
Agent shall not be construed as or otherwise constitute any participation in the management of such Collateral, including without limitation the real properties that constitute Collateral, as those terms are defined in Section 101(20)(E) of the
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, 42 U.S.C. §§ 9601 et seq., as amended. 
 (r) Upon the
receipt by the Collateral Agent of a written request of the Issuers signed by one Officer of each Issuer (a “Security Document Order”), the Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to execute and enter into, without the further consent
of any Holder or the Trustee, any Security Document to be executed after the Issue Date. Such Security Document Order shall (i) state that it is being delivered to the Collateral Agent pursuant to, and is a Security Document Order referred to
in, this Section 13.09(r), and (ii) instruct the Collateral Agent to execute and enter into such Security Document. Any such execution of a Security Document shall be at the direction and expense of the Issuer, upon delivery to the
Collateral Agent of an Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel stating that all conditions precedent to the execution and delivery of the Security Document have been satisfied. The Holders, by their acceptance of the Notes, hereby
authorize and direct the Collateral Agent to execute such Security Documents. 

  
 135 













 (s) Subject to the provisions of the applicable Security Documents, each Holder, by
acceptance of the Notes, agrees that the Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver the Security Documents to which it is a party and all agreements, documents and instruments incidental thereto, and act in accordance with the terms thereof. For the
avoidance of doubt, except as expressly set forth herein, in the Security Documents, the Collateral Agent shall have no discretion under this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreement, or the Security Documents and shall not be required to make or give
any determination, consent, approval, request or direction without the written direction of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes or the Trustee or, if Secured Obligations are then outstanding, the
applicable “Authorized Representative” under the Intercreditor Agreement (if other than the Collateral Agent), as applicable. 

(t) After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the
Trustee may direct the Collateral Agent in connection with any action required or permitted by this Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement. 

(u) The Collateral Agent is authorized to receive any funds for the benefit of itself, the Trustee and the Holders distributed under the
Security Documents, for turnover to the Trustee to make further distributions of such funds to itself, the Trustee and the Holders in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.13 and the other provisions of this Indenture and the
Intercreditor Agreement. The Collateral Agent shall not have any duty to invest any funds that may be on deposit with it under this Indenture or any other Security Document. 

(v) In each case that the Collateral Agent may or is required hereunder or under any other Note Document to take any action (an
“Action”), including without limitation to make any determination, to give consents, to exercise rights, powers or remedies, to release or sell Collateral or otherwise to act hereunder or under any other Note Document, the
Collateral Agent may seek direction from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable with respect to any Action taken or omitted to be taken by it in accordance with
the direction from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, if the Collateral Agent shall request direction from the Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes with respect to any Action, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such Action unless and until the Collateral Agent shall have received direction from the Holders of a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes, and the Collateral Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining. 

(w) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or any other Note Document, in no event shall the Collateral Agent (or the
Trustee) be responsible for, or have any duty or obligation with respect to, the recording, filing, registering, perfection, protection or maintenance of the security interests or Liens intended to be created by this Indenture or the other Note
Documents (including without limitation the filing or continuation of any UCC financing or continuation statements or similar documents or instruments), nor shall the Collateral Agent or the Trustee be responsible for, and the Collateral Agent and
the Trustee make no representation regarding, the validity, effectiveness or priority of any of the Security Documents or the security interests or Liens intended to be created thereby. The Collateral Agent makes no representation regarding the
validity, effectiveness or enforceability of the Intercreditor Agreement, or any subsequent intercreditor agreement. 
 (x) Before the
Collateral Agent acts or refrains from acting in each case at the request or direction of the Issuers or the Guarantors, or in connection with any Security Document or the Intercreditor Agreement, it may require an Officer’s Certificate and an
Opinion of Counsel, which shall conform to the provisions of Section 12.05. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such certificate or opinion. 

  
 136 













 (y) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein but subject to the terms of
the Intercreditor Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall act pursuant to the instructions of the Noteholder Secured Parties or the Trustee as provided in this Indenture solely with respect to the Security Documents. 

(z) The Issuers and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall indemnify the Collateral Agent for, and hold the Collateral Agent harmless
against, any and all loss, damage, claim, liability or expense (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by it in connection with the acceptance or the performance of its duties hereunder and under the other Note Documents (including the costs and
expenses of enforcing any Note Document against the Issuers or any of the Guarantors (including this Article 13) or defending itself against any claim whether asserted by any Holder, the Issuers or any Guarantor, any holder of Secured Obligations or
liability in connection with the acceptance, exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder). The Collateral Agent shall notify the Issuers promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Collateral Agent to
so notify the Issuers shall not relieve the Issuers or any Guarantor of their obligations hereunder. The Issuers and the Guarantors shall defend the claim and the Collateral Agent may have separate counsel and the Issuers and the Guarantors shall
pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. The Issuers and the Guarantors need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Collateral Agent to the extent that the foregoing are found by a
final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the Collateral Agent’s own willful misconduct or gross negligence. The obligations of the Issuers and the
Guarantors under this Section 13.09(z) shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or the earlier resignation or removal of the Collateral Agent. To secure the payment obligations of the Issuers and the Guarantors in this
Section 13.09(z) but subject to the terms of the Collateral Agent shall have a Lien prior to the Notes and rights of the Holders on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee or Collateral Agent, except that held in trust to pay
principal, premium, if any, and interest on particular Notes. Such Lien shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. For the avoidance of doubt, the Issuers shall pay compensation to, reimburse expenses of and indemnify the
Collateral Agent in accordance with Section 7.07.

 [Back of Note] 

9.00%/11.00%/13.00% Senior Secured First Lien PIK Toggle Notes due 2027 

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

1. INTEREST. Diamond Foreign Asset Company an exempted company formed under the laws of the Cayman Islands and a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of
the Company (as defined below) (the “Cayman Issuer”), and Diamond Finance, LLC, a limited liability company organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware and a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Cayman Issuer (the
“U.S. Issuer,” together with the Cayman Issuer, the “Issuers”), promise to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at (a) 9.00% per annum payable in cash, (b) 11.00% per annum with 5.50% of such interest
payable in cash and 5.50% of such interest payable in PIK Interest or (c) 13.00% per annum payable in PIK Interest from April 23, 2021 (the “Issue Date”) until maturity. The Issuers will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on
April 30 and October 31 of each year; provided, however, that in 2026, the Interest Payment Date will occur on April 22 instead of April 30; provided, further that if any such day is not a Business Day, the
Interest Payment Date will on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an “Interest Payment Date”) and no interest shall accrue on such payment as the result of the delay; provided, further that in each case, after the
fifth anniversary of the Issue Date, interest shall be payable only at maturity (which interest shall be an amount calculated so that the total amount of interest paid after the fifth anniversary of the Issue Date would equal the amount that would
have been paid without the foregoing proviso). 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 the date of issuance; provided, that the first Interest Payment
Date shall be October 31, 2021. The Issuers 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 (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 Issuers will pay interest on the Notes to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business
on the April 15 or October 16 (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; provided, however, that in 2026, the Record Date will occur on April 7 instead of April 15. Payment of interest 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 interest and premium, if any, on, all Global Notes and
all other Notes the Holders of which shall have provided wire transfer instructions to the Issuers 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. 
 In the event that the Issuers shall determine to pay PIK Interest, in part or in full, for any
Interest Period, then the Issuers shall deliver a notice (a “PIK Notice”) to the Trustee following the Determination Date but prior to the first day of the relevant Interest Period, which notice shall state the total amount of interest to
be paid on the Interest Payment Date in respect of such Interest Period. The Trustee, on behalf of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall promptly deliver a corresponding notice provided by the Issuer to the Holders. For the avoidance of doubt,
failure to deliver a PIK Notice in 

  
 A-5 













 accordance with the Indenture shall not be an Event of Default. For the avoidance of doubt, interest on the
Notes in respect of any Interest Period for which a PIK Notice is not delivered in accordance with the Indenture must be paid entirely in cash. Interest for the last Interest Period ending at the stated maturity of the Notes shall be payable
entirely in cash. 
 If the Issuers are entitled to pay PIK Interest in respect of this Note, the Issuers may elect (subject to the
restrictions contained in this Note), without the consent of the Holders of the Notes (and without regard to any restrictions or limitations set forth under Section 4.09 of the Indenture), to pay the applicable amount of PIK Interest (in
accordance with the requirements contained in this Note) for such Interest Period in respect of this Note on the Interest Payment Date in respect of such Interest Period by (i) increasing the outstanding principal amount of this Note by an
amount equal to the PIK Interest elected to be paid (rounded up to the nearest whole dollar), with respect to Global Notes; and, upon receipt of an Issuer Order, an adjustment shall be made by the Trustee to reflect such increase in the
“Schedule of Exchanges of Interests” in the Global Note or (ii) issuing PIK Notes under the Indenture on the same terms and conditions as this Note in an amount equal to the PIK Interest elected to be paid (rounded up to the nearest
whole dollar) (in each case of (i) and (ii), a “PIK Payment”). Following an increase in the principal amount of the outstanding Notes as a result of a PIK Payment, the Notes will bear interest on such increased principal amount
from and after the date of such PIK Payment. Any PIK Notes issued will be dated as of the applicable Interest Payment Date and will bear interest from and after such date. All Notes issued pursuant to a PIK Payment will mature on the same date as
the Notes in respect of which such PIK Payment was made as a payment of PIK Interest, and will be governed by, and subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of, the Indenture and will have the same rights and benefits of the Notes in respect
of which such PIK Payment was made as a payment of PIK Interest. Any certificated PIK Notes will be issued with the description “PIK” on the face of such PIK Notes. 

3. PAYING AGENT AND REGISTRAR. Initially, Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB, the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and
Registrar. The Issuers may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to the Holders. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity. 

4. INDENTURE. The Issuers issued the Notes under an Indenture, dated as of April 23, 2021 (the “Indenture”), among the
Issuers, the Guarantors named therein, the Trustee and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Collateral Agent. This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of notes of the Issuers designated as their 9.00%/11.00%/13.00% Senior Secured First Lien
PIK Toggle Notes due 2027. The Issuers shall be entitled to issue Additional Notes pursuant to Section 2.01 and 4.09 of the Indenture, including any increases thereof as the result of a PIK Payment and any PIK Notes issued as PIK Payments with
respect to such Additional Notes. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture 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.
REDEMPTION AND REPURCHASE.    The Notes may be redeemed at the option of the Issuers, and may be the subject of a Change of Control Offer, an Asset Sale and Other Last Out Debt Repayment Offer, as further described in the
Indenture. Except as provided in the Indenture, the Issuers shall not be required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes. 

  
 A-6 













 6. DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in
minimum denominations of $1.00 and integral multiples of $1.00 in excess thereof. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other
things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Issuers may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. Neither the Issuers nor the Trustee need exchange or register the
transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption or tendered (and not withdrawn) for repurchase in connection with a Change of Control Offer, an Asset Sale Offer or other tender offer, in whole or in part, except for the unredeemed
portion of any Note being redeemed in part, or between a Record Date and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date. 
 7. PERSONS DEEMED
OWNERS. The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes. 
 8. AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER. The Indenture,
the Guarantees or the Notes may be amended or supplemented as provided in the Indenture. 
 9. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES. The Events of Default
relating to the Notes are defined in Section 6.01 of the Indenture. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the rights and obligations of the Issuers, the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders shall be set forth in the applicable
provisions of the Indenture. 
 10. 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. 
 11. GOVERNING LAW. THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW
YORK SHALL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THE INDENTURE, THE NOTES AND THE GUARANTEES. 
 12. CUSIP NUMBERS. Pursuant to a recommendation
promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Issuers have caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes and the Trustee may use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a 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. 

The Issuers will furnish to any Holder upon written request and without charge a copy of the Indenture. Requests may be made to the Issuers at

 WHEREAS, the Parent and the other Obligors party hereto in their respective capacities as
holders or payees of Indebtedness, liabilities, and other obligations, whether now or hereafter arising, and whether due to or becoming due, absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, determined or undetermined, including all fees and all
other amounts payable in connection with any of the foregoing, owed by any Obligor (collectively, the “Subordinated Debt”), desire to subordinate such Subordinated Debt to the Secured Obligations as set forth below. 

WHEREAS, such agreements or understandings governing or evidencing such Subordinated Debt are referred to herein as “Subordinated
Intercompany Debt Agreements”. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are
hereby acknowledged by the Obligors, the Obligors agree as follows: 
 1. Subordination. 

(a) Each Obligor severally covenants and agrees in its respective capacity as holder or payee of any Subordinated Debt, that any Subordinated
Debt owed to it, whether now or hereafter existing, is subordinated in right of payment and enforcement, to the extent and in the manner provided in this Section 1, to the prior payment in full in cash of all of the Secured
Obligations and that the subordination herein is for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties. Each Obligor (with respect to Subordinated Debt owed to it) agrees that, after the occurrence and during the continuation of an
Event of Default, such Obligor shall not ask, demand, accelerate, sue for, or take or receive from any other Obligor, directly or indirectly, in cash, securities, or other property or by set-off or in any
other manner (including, without limitation, from or by way of collateral), payment of all or any of the Subordinated Debt. Without limitation of the foregoing with respect to any Subordinated Debt, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, to the extent permitted under the First Lien Documents, any Obligor may make and any Obligor may receive any (x) payments of principal, interest and any other amounts, including, without limitation, prepayments of principal and
(y) refinancings, replacements, renewals or extensions of such Subordinated Debt that are subordinated to the Secured Obligations in accordance with this Section 1; provided, that in the event that any Obligor
receives any payment of any such Subordinated Indebtedness at a time when such payment is prohibited by this Section 1, such payment shall be held by such Obligor, in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid forthwith
over and delivered to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties according to the respective Secured Obligations held or represented by each. 

(b) Each Obligor agrees that upon any distribution of assets of any Obligor in any dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization
(whether in bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership proceedings or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors or otherwise): (i) the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties shall first be entitled to receive payment in full of the Secured
Obligations before any holder or payee of Subordinated Debt is entitled to receive any payment on account of Subordinated Debt, (ii) any payment or distribution of assets of any Obligor of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or
securities, to which any such holder or payee of Subordinated Debt would be entitled except for the provisions of this subsection 1(b), shall be paid by the liquidating trustee or agent or other Person making such payment or distribution
directly to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of itself and the other Secured Parties, to the extent necessary to make payment in full of all Secured Obligations remaining unpaid after giving effect


  
 2 













 
to any concurrent payment or distribution or provisions therefor to Collateral Agent, for itself and the other Secured Parties in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement, (iii) in the
event that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this subsection 1(b), any such payment or distribution described in the foregoing subclause (i) or (ii) shall be received by any Obligor on account of Subordinated Debt during the
term of this Agreement, such payment or distribution shall be received and held in trust for and shall be paid over to the Collateral Agent, for application to the payment of the Secured Obligations, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or
distribution or provision therefor to the Collateral Agent and (iv) no right of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Parties to enforce the subordination provisions herein shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act
or failure to act on the part of a Credit Party or any Obligor. If, for any reason, any of the trusts expressed to be created in this Section 1 should fail or be unenforceable, the affected Obligor will promptly pay or distribute
any such payment or distribution of assets to the Collateral Agent, for application to the payment of the Secured Obligations in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement. 

2. Authorization to Collateral Agent. If, while any Subordinated Debt is outstanding, any insolvency proceeding shall occur and be
continuing with respect to any Obligor or its property: (a) the Collateral Agent hereby is irrevocably authorized and empowered (in the name of each Obligor or otherwise), but shall have no obligation, to ask, demand, accelerate, sue for,
collect, and receive every payment or distribution in respect of the Subordinated Debt and give acquittance therefor and to file claims and proofs of claim and take such other action (including voting the Subordinated Debt) as it may deem necessary
or advisable for the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights or interests of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties; and (b) each Obligor shall promptly take such action as the Collateral Agent reasonably may request
(i) to collect the Subordinated Debt for the account of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and to file appropriate claims or proofs of claim in respect of the Subordinated Debt, (ii) to execute and deliver to the Collateral
Agent such powers of attorney, assignments, and other instruments as it may request to enable it to enforce any and all claims with respect to the Subordinated Debt, and (iii) to collect and receive any and all payments in respect of
Subordinated Debt. 
 3. No Enforcement of Remedies; No Contest of Enforcement or Forbearance. Each Obligor agrees that such Obligor
shall not (a) exercise or enforce any creditors’ rights or remedies that it may have against any Obligor, or foreclose, repossess, sequester, or otherwise institute any action or proceeding (whether judicial or otherwise, including the
commencement of any insolvency proceeding) to enforce any Subordinated Debt, unless the Collateral Agent otherwise consents, or (b) contest, protest, or object to any exercise of remedies by, or to any forbearance by, any Secured Party in
connection with the Secured Obligations. 
 4. Confirmation of Waiver of Rights of Subrogation. Each Obligor agrees that no payment
or distribution to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement shall entitle such Obligor to exercise, nor shall such Obligor exercise, any rights of subrogation in respect thereof until the termination of this Agreement in
accordance with its terms. It is understood by the parties hereto that the foregoing waiver of the exercise of any right of subrogation by each Obligor shall in no event be deemed to be a permanent waiver of such right of subrogation, but shall be
effective only until the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms. 

  
 3 













 5. Agreements by Obligors. Each Obligor agrees that it will not make any payment of
any of the Subordinated Debt under which it is indebted, or take any other action, in contravention of the provisions of this Agreement. 

6. Rights of Secured Parties. All rights and interests of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties hereunder, and all
agreements and obligations of the Obligors under this Agreement, shall remain in full force and effect (prior to the occurrence of the Subordination Discharge Date (as defined below) and subject to Section 11 hereof)
irrespective of: 
 (a) any extension, modification or renewal of, or indulgence with respect to, or substitution for, the Secured
Obligations or any part thereof or any agreement relating thereto at any time (including, without limitation, any change in the time, manner, or place of payment of any of the Secured Obligations); 

(b) any failure or omission to perfect or maintain any Lien on, or preserve rights to, any security or Collateral or to enforce any right,
power or remedy with respect to the Secured Obligations or any part thereof or any agreement relating thereto, or any Collateral securing the Secured Obligations or any part thereof; 

(c) any waiver of any right, power or remedy or of any default with respect to the Secured Obligations or any part thereof or any
Facility Agreement or other agreement relating thereto or with respect to any Collateral securing the Secured Obligations or any part thereof (including, without limitation, any manner of application of Collateral, or proceeds thereof, to all or any
of the Secured Obligations, or any manner or sale or other disposition of any Collateral for all or any of the Secured Obligations or any other obligations of any other Person under the First Lien Documents or any other assets of any Obligor); 

(d) any taking, exchange, release, surrender, compromise, settlement, waiver, subordination or modification, with or without consideration, of
any Collateral securing the Secured Obligations or any part thereof, any guaranties with respect to the Secured Obligations or any part thereof, or any other obligations of any Person thereof; 

(e) the enforceability or validity of the Secured Obligations or any part thereof or the genuineness, enforceability or validity of any
agreement relating thereto or with respect to any Collateral securing the Secured Obligations or any part thereof;

act which does or might impair, delay or in any way affect the validity, enforceability or the payment when due of the Secured Obligations; 

(i) the failure of the Parent or any Obligor to take any other action, or maintain any other approvals, licenses or consents, required in
connection with the performance of all obligations pursuant to the Secured Obligations or this Agreement; 
 (j) the existence of any
claim, setoff or other rights which any Obligor may have at any time against any other Obligor in connection herewith or with any unrelated transaction; 

(k) the Secured Parties’ election, in any case or proceeding instituted under Debtor Relief Laws, of the application of

Parent or any other Obligor, as debtor in possession, under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code; 
 (m) the disallowance of all or
any portion of any of the Secured Parties’ claims for repayment of the Secured Obligations under Section 502 or 506 of the Bankruptcy Code; 

(n) any refusal of payment by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, in whole or in part, from any Obligor in connection with
any of the Secured Obligations, whether or not with notice to, or further assent by, or any reservation of rights against, any Obligor; or 

(o) any other fact or circumstance which might otherwise constitute grounds at law or equity for the discharge or release of any Obligor
from its obligations hereunder (other than the occurrence of each of the following: (i) the payment in full in cash of all Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not then due), (ii) the termination of the
commitments to extend credit or otherwise purchase indebtedness under each of the First Lien Documents, (iii) all letters of credit, secured hedge agreements, and secured cash management arrangements pursuant to the applicable First Lien
Documents have been terminated or expired (or have been cash collateralized in an amount satisfactory to the applicable Secured Party and the applicable Authorized Representative, or as to which other arrangements satisfactory to the applicable
Secured Party and the applicable Authorized Representative have been made and communicated to the Collateral Agent by the applicable Authorized Representative) (the date upon which each of the foregoing has occurred, the “Subordination
Discharge Date”), subject however to Debtor Relief Laws and Section 11 hereof); 
 in each case, whether
or not such Obligor shall have had notice or knowledge of any act or omission referred to in the foregoing clauses (a) through (o) of this Section. 

7. Waiver. To the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Obligor hereby waives (a) promptness, diligence, notice of
acceptance and any other notice with respect to any of the Secured Obligations and this Agreement, (b) any requirement that the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party exhaust any right or take any action against any Obligor or any other
Person, and (c) any right to require marshaling of assets. 

  
 5 













 8. No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure on the part of the Collateral Agent or
any other Secured Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any rights hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise
of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. 
 9. Conflicts.
In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and any other provision of any Subordinated Intercompany Debt Agreements or any other agreement, instrument or understanding governing the Subordinated Debt, this Agreement shall control to the
extent of such conflict. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement shall control to the extent of such conflict. Without limiting the foregoing, notwithstanding any provision or
requirement in any Subordinated Intercompany Debt Agreement to the contrary, the Parties hereto agree that (a) the Secured Obligations shall rank senior in right of payment and enforcement to any such Subordinated Debt to the extent set forth
in this Agreement and (b) the terms of the Subordinated Debt may be varied pursuant to the express terms of this Agreement. 
 10.
Joinder. Upon the execution and delivery to the Collateral Agent by any Person of a supplement joinder in substantially the form of Annex I or such other form as may be acceptable to the Collateral Agent (each, a
“Joinder”), such Person shall become a “Obligor” hereunder as of the date of such Joinder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Obligor herein. The execution and delivery of any Joinder shall not
require the consent of any other Obligor hereunder, any Credit Party, the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party. The rights and obligations of each Obligor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new
Obligor as a party to this Agreement. 
 11. Release. To the extent that any Obligor is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary
pursuant to each of the First Lien Documents, the Parent may elect, by written notice to the Collateral Agent, to have such Obligor discharged from all of its obligations and liabilities under this Agreement, so long as (a) the Parent shall be
in compliance with the requirements for designation of Unrestricted Subsidiaries in the First Lien Documents before and after giving effect to such designation and release, and (b) no Default or Event of Default then exists or would be caused
thereby. In addition, any Obligor shall be discharged from all of its obligations and liabilities under this Agreement if it ceases to be a Subsidiary of Parent in a transaction permitted under the terms of the First Lien Documents. Upon such
election in a written notice to the Collateral Agent in the case of the first sentence in this Section 11, and satisfaction of the other conditions specified in the immediately preceding two sentences, as applicable, the
applicable Obligor shall be automatically released from its obligations hereunder without the need for the execution and delivery of any document or instrument by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party. Additionally, this Agreement shall
automatically terminate upon the Subordination Discharge Date. 
 12. Continuing Agreement; Termination; Reinstatement. This
Agreement is a continuing agreement and shall remain in full force and effect until the termination of this Agreement, be binding upon each Obligor and their respective successors and assigns, and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the
Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and its and their respective permitted successors and assigns. This Agreement shall terminate 

  
 6 













 
automatically upon the Subordination Discharge Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if any payment by or on
behalf of an Obligor is made, or the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party exercises any right of setoff, in respect of the Secured Obligations and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated,
declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party in their discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in
connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws or otherwise, all as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred regardless of any prior revocation, rescission, termination or reduction. 

13. Transfer of Subordinated Debt. Other than an assignment between Restricted Subsidiaries that are Obligors party to this Agreement,
no Obligor may assign or transfer its rights and obligations in respect of the Subordinated Debt (other than in a transaction permitted under the First Lien Documents) without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent, and any such
assignment without the Collateral Agent’s prior written consent shall be null and void. Any transferee or assignee of any Subordinated Debt, as a condition to acquiring an interest in such Subordinated Debt shall agree to be bound hereby or by
other subordination terms substantially identical to those herein and otherwise acceptable to the Collateral Agent, in a manner satisfactory to the Collateral Agent. 

14. No Novation. For the avoidance of doubt, each Subordinated Intercompany Debt Agreement shall continue on and after execution and
delivery of this Agreement without any novation, discharge, rescission, extinguishment or substitution of the Obligors’ rights and obligations thereunder pursuant to the terms thereof. 

15. Titles and Captions. Titles and captions of Sections, subsections, and clauses in, this Agreement are for convenience only, and
neither limit nor amplify the provisions of this Agreement. 
 16. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement or any other First
Lien Document which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining
provisions hereof or thereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. In the event that any provision is held to be so prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the Collateral Agent (acting on
behalf of the Secured Parties) and the Obligors shall negotiate in good faith to amend such provision to preserve the original intent thereof in such jurisdiction. 

17. Governing Law and Submission to Jurisdiction. WITH RESPECT TO SECTION 9 AND SECTION 14, THE GOVERNING LAW OF EACH
SUBORDINATED INTERCOMPANY DEBT AGREEMENT SHALL CONTINUE TO APPLY TO SUCH SUBORDINATED INTERCOMPANY DEBT AGREEMENT FOR PURPOSES OF CONSTRUING AND INTERPRETING THE EFFECTS OF THIS AGREEMENT ON SUCH SUBORDINATED INTERCOMPANY DEBT AGREEMENT. EXCEPT WITH
RESPECT TO SECTION 9 AND SECTION 14, THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF 

  
 7

contract, in tort, or otherwise, against the Collateral Agent or any Related Party of the foregoing in any way relating to this Agreement, any First Lien Document, or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, or the consummation of
the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, in any forum other than the courts of the State of New York sitting in New York County, and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any
thereof, and each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts and agrees that all claims in respect of any such action, litigation, or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New
York State court or, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, in such federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action, litigation, or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other
jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that any Secured Party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement against any Obligor
or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. 
 18. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by
different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the
Collateral Agent and when the Collateral Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by
facsimile or in electronic (i.e., “pdf” or “tif”) format shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement

writing signed by the Obligors and the Collateral Agent (acting on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with Section 4.02 of the Intercreditor Agreement); provided that, only the signature of a Person joining this Agreement
pursuant to Section 10 shall be required for a Joinder; and provided further that, no signature of any Secured Party shall be required to release a Party pursuant to the provisions of
Section 11, so long as the Parent is in compliance with the requirements set forth in Section 11 at such time. Any waiver of the terms hereof shall be effective only in the specific instance and
for the specific purpose given. 
 20. Notices, Etc. All notices and other communications provided for hereunder, by and between the
Collateral Agent on the one hand and any Obligor on the other hand, shall be given and become effective as provided in Section 7.01 of the Intercreditor Agreement and shall be sent (a) if to any Obligor, to its address specified on
Schedule A attached hereto, as may be updated from time to time by notice to the Collateral Agent, including, in connection with any Joinder, and (b) if to the Collateral Agent, at its address specified in or pursuant to the Intercreditor
Agreement. 
 21. Further Assurances. Each Obligor will, at its expense and at any time and from time to time, promptly execute and
deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that may be necessary, or that the Collateral Agent may reasonably request, in order to protect any rights or interest granted or purported to be granted hereby or to enable
the Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder.

 22. Third Party Beneficiary; Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding
upon and inure to the benefit of all Persons who become permitted holders of, or continue to hold, Secured Obligations; and such holders are made third party beneficiaries of this Agreement during the term of this Agreement. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing clause, each of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties may assign or otherwise transfer in accordance with the express provisions of the First Out Revolving Credit Agreement and the other First Lien Documents
all or any portion of its rights and obligations under the First Out Revolving Credit Agreement or the other First Lien Documents, as applicable (including, without limitation, all or any portion of its commitments under such Facility Agreement and

or otherwise. 
 23. Waiver of Jury. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE
LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH
