which was supplemented by a supplemental indenture dated as of November 16, 2012 (the “Second Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), by and between the Company and the Trustee,

 WHEREAS, the Company has

 WHEREAS, Section 9.2 of the Base Indenture provides that, subject to certain exceptions inapplicable hereto, the Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture and the Notes with the

 WHEREAS, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes outstanding have duly consented to the proposed
modifications set forth in this Fourth Supplemental Indenture in accordance with Section 9.2 of the Base Indenture; and 

WHEREAS, the execution and delivery of this Fourth Supplemental Indenture have been duly authorized by the Company and all conditions and
requirements necessary to make this instrument a valid and binding agreement have been duly performed and complied with. 
 NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the above premises, and for the purpose of memorializing the amendments to the Indenture consented to by the Holders, each party agrees, for the benefit of the others and for the equal and ratable benefit of the
Holders of the Notes, as follows: 
 ARTICLE I 

AMENDMENT OF INDENTURE 
 Section 1.1 Amendment to Definitions. Section 1.2 of the Second Supplemental Indenture is hereby amended as follows. 

(a) The following definitions are hereby inserted alphabetically into Section 1.2 of the Second Supplemental Indenture: 

“Parent” means any person of which the Company at any time is a subsidiary, or at any time after the issue date of the
Notes becomes a subsidiary, and any holding company established by any Permitted Holder for purposes of holding its investment in any Parent. 







 “Permitted Holders” means, collectively, (1) Bain Capital Partners,
LLC, Golden Gate Private Equity, Inc., GIC Special Investments Pte Ltd, and Insight Venture Management, LLC, any of their respective successors and their respective Affiliates, (2) any one or more persons, together with such persons’
Affiliates, whose beneficial ownership constitutes or results in a Change of Control in respect of which a Change of Control Offer is made in accordance with the requirements of this Indenture, (3) any person who is acting as an underwriter in
connection with a public or private offering of Capital Stock of any Parent or the Company, acting in such capacity, and (4) any group (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or Section 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act or any successor
provision) of which any of the foregoing are members; provided that, in the case of such “group” and without giving effect to the existence of such group or any other group, any one or more of the persons specified in (1),
collectively, has beneficial ownership of more than 50% of the total voting power of the Voting Stock of the Company or any of its Parents held by such “group.” 
 (b) The definition of “Change of Control is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows: 
 “Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following: 

(1) the direct or indirect sale, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger or consolidation), in one or more
series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets and the assets of its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to any person, other than the Company, one of its Subsidiaries, or one or more Permitted Holders;

 (2) the consummation of any transaction (including, without limitation, any merger or consolidation) the result of which is
that any person, other than one or more Permitted Holders, becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Company’s outstanding Voting Stock or other
Voting Stock into which the Company’s Voting Stock is reclassified, consolidated, exchanged or changed, measured by voting power rather than number of shares; 
 (3) the Company consolidates with, or merges with or into, any person other than a Permitted Holder, or any person other than a Permitted Holder consolidates with, or merges with or into, the Company, in
any such event pursuant to a transaction in which any of the Company’s outstanding Voting Stock or the Voting Stock of such other person is converted into or exchanged for cash, securities or other property, other than any such transaction
where the shares of the Company’s Voting Stock outstanding immediately prior to such transaction constitute, or are converted into or exchanged for, a majority of the Voting Stock of the surviving person or any direct or indirect parent company
of the surviving person immediately after giving effect to such transaction; 
 (4) the first day on which a majority of the
members of the Company’s Board of Directors are not Continuing Directors; or 
 (5) the adoption of a plan relating to the
Company’s liquidation or dissolution. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction will not be deemed to involve a
Change of Control if (1) the Company becomes a direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of a holding company and (2)(A) the direct or indirect holders of the Voting Stock of such holding company immediately following that transaction are
substantially the same as the holders of the Company’s Voting Stock immediately prior to that transaction or (B) immediately following that transaction no person (other than a holding company satisfying the requirements of this sentence)
is the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Voting Stock of such holding company. The term “person,” as used in this definition, has the meaning given thereto in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act.
