attributable thereto for such period; and 
 (b) Consolidated Interest Expense for such period will be reduced by an amount

the first day of such period; and 
 (4) if since the beginning of such period any Person (that subsequently became a
Consolidated Subsidiary or was merged or consolidated with or into the Company or any Consolidated Subsidiary since the beginning of such period) will have Incurred any Indebtedness or discharged any Indebtedness, made any disposition or any
Investment or acquisition of assets or property that would have required an adjustment pursuant to clause (1), (2) or (3) above if made by the Company or a Consolidated Subsidiary during such period, Consolidated EBITDA and Consolidated
Interest Expense for such period will be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such transaction occurred on the first day of such period. 

Notwithstanding anything in this definition to the contrary, when calculating the Consolidated Coverage Ratio, as applicable, in each
case in connection with an acquisition permitted under this Indenture, the date of determination of the Consolidated Coverage Ratio shall, at the option of the Company, be the date that a definitive agreement for such acquisition is entered into and
the Consolidated Coverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to such acquisition and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof)
consistent with the definition of Consolidated Coverage Ratio, and, for the avoidance of doubt, (x) if any such ratios are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in such ratio (including due to fluctuations in the Consolidated EBITDA of the
Company or the target company) at or prior to the consummation of the relevant acquisition, such ratios will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations solely for purposes of determining whether such acquisition and any
related transactions are permitted hereunder and (y) such ratios shall not be tested at the time of consummation of such acquisition or related transactions; provided further, that if the Company elects to have such determinations occur
at the time of entry into such definitive agreement, (i) any such transaction shall be deemed to have occurred on the date the definitive agreement is entered into and to be outstanding thereafter for purposes of calculating any ratios under
this Indenture after the date of such agreement and before the consummation of such acquisition and (ii) to the extent any covenant baskets were utilized in satisfying any covenants, such baskets shall be deemed utilized, but any calculation of
Total Assets for purposes of other incurrences of Indebtedness or Liens or making of Restricted Payments (not related to such acquisition) shall not reflect such acquisition until it has been consummated. 

For purposes of this definition, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to any calculation under this definition, the pro
forma calculations will be determined in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting Officer of the Company to reflect adjustments (i) required or permitted under Regulation S-X and (ii) at the option of the Company, to reflect
expected improvements to Consolidated EBITDA resulting from cost savings and  

  
 -8- 








 
synergies in connection with any acquisition or disposition based upon specifically identified actions that have been taken or are expected to be taken within 12 months of the date of the
relevant acquisition or disposition so long as such improvement is expected to be reflected in the Company’s Consolidated EBITDA within four fiscal quarters following the date such actions are taken. If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of
interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest expense on such Indebtedness will be calculated as if the rate in effect on the date of determination had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any
Interest Rate Agreement applicable to such Indebtedness if such Interest Rate Agreement has a remaining term in excess of 12 months). If any Indebtedness that is being given pro forma effect bears an interest rate at the option of the
Company, the interest rate shall be calculated by applying such optional rate chosen by the Company.

to Consolidated Net Income for Restructuring Charges pursuant to this clause will not exceed, in any four fiscal quarter period, the greater of (i) $20.0 million and (ii) 5% of Consolidated EBITDA of such Person as otherwise determined in
accordance with this definition for such four fiscal quarter period with such pro forma adjustments as are consistent with the definition of Consolidated Coverage Ratio; plus

to this clause (h) or such clause (g); plus

and bonuses, and any expenses related to deferred purchase price or earn-out obligations, payable in connection with the Transactions or any acquisition or Investment effected after the Merger Consummation Date.

 (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action
provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing. Except as herein
otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments or record or both are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company. Proof of execution of any such instrument
or of a writing appointing any such agent, or the holding by any Person of a Note, shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 7.01) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company, if made in the manner

execution thereof. Where such execution is by or on behalf of any legal entity other than an individual, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute proof of the authority of the Person executing the same. The fact and date of the execution

 (e) The Company may, set a record date which need not be the date specified

action by vote or consent authorized or permitted to be given or taken by Holders. If a record date is fixed, then only those Persons who were Holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only such Persons, shall be entitled
to give any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or take any such other act or vote on or consent to any such action by vote or consent, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date. Unless
otherwise specified by the Company, if not set by the Company prior to the first solicitation of a Holder made by any Person in respect of any such action, or in the case of any such vote, prior to such vote, any such record date shall be the later
of 30 days prior to the first solicitation of such consent or the date of the most recent list of Holders furnished to the Trustee prior to such solicitation. 

(f) Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled to take any action hereunder with regard to any particular Note may do so with regard to
all or any part of the principal amount of such Note or by one or more duly appointed agents, each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any part of such principal amount. Any notice given or action taken by a Holder
or its agents with regard to different parts of such principal amount pursuant to this Section 1.05(f) shall have the same effect as if given or taken by separate Holders of each such different part. 

(g) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a Holder, including DTC that is the Holder of a Global Note, may make, give or take, by a

by DTC entitled under the procedures of such depositary to make, give or take, by a proxy or proxies duly appointed in writing, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided in this Indenture to be
made, given or taken by Holders. If such a record date is fixed, the Holders on such record date or their duly appointed proxy or proxies, and only such Persons, shall be entitled to make, give or take such request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent, waiver or other action, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date. No such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action shall be valid or effective if made, given or

 ARTICLE 2 

THE NOTES 

Section 2.01 Form and Dating; Terms. 

(a) The aggregate principal amount of Notes that may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is unlimited. The Initial Notes issued
on the date hereof will be in an aggregate principal amount of $750,000,000. In addition, after the Issue Date, the Company may issue, from time to time in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture, Additional Notes (as provided herein) and
Exchange Notes. Furthermore, Notes may be authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer, exchange or in lieu of, other Notes pursuant to Section 2.02, 2.06, 2.10, 3.06 or 9.05, in connection with an Asset Sale Offer pursuant to
Section 4.10 or in connection with a Change of Control Offer pursuant to Section 4.14. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, the Company may not issue any Additional Notes, unless at the time of such issuance, the Company would be in compliance with Section 4.09. 

The Notes shall be known and designated as “8.00% Senior Notes due 2020” of the Company. 

With respect to any Additional Notes, the Company shall set forth in (x) a Board Resolution and (y) (i) an Officers’
Certificate or (ii) one or more indentures supplemental hereto, the following information: 
 (1) the aggregate
principal amount of such Additional Notes to be authenticated and delivered pursuant to this Indenture; and 
 (2) the issue
price and the issue date of such Additional Notes, including the date from which interest shall accrue. 
 In authenticating and delivering
Additional Notes, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive and shall be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the Opinion of Counsel and Officers’ Certificate required by Section 12.04, an Opinion of Counsel as to the due
authorization, execution, delivery, validity and enforceability of such Additional Notes. 
 The Initial Notes, the Additional Notes and the
Exchange Notes shall be considered collectively as a single class for all purposes of this Indenture. Holders of the Initial Notes, the Additional Notes and the Exchange Notes will vote and consent together on all matters to which such Holders are
entitled to vote or consent as one class, and none of the Holders of the Initial Notes, the Additional Notes or the Exchange Notes shall have the right to vote or consent as a separate class on any matter to which such Holders are entitled to vote
or consent. Additional Notes may have different issue prices, first interest payment dates and amounts, provisions with respect to transferability under securities laws, registration rights and tax treatment and CUSIP numbers from Initial Notes,
Exchange Notes and other Additional Notes. 
 A copy of the Board Resolutions of the Company establishing the terms of any Additional Notes,
certified by the Secretary or any Assistant Secretary of the Company, shall be delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the delivery of the Officers’ Certificate or the indenture supplemental hereto setting forth the terms of the Additional
Notes. 
 (b) The Initial Notes are being offered and sold by the Company pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement. The Initial Notes and any
Additional Notes (if issued as Transfer Restricted Notes) (the “Additional Restricted Notes”) will be resold initially only to (A) QIBs in reliance on Rule 144A and (B) Non-U.S. Persons in reliance on Regulation S. Such
Initial Notes and Additional Restricted Notes may thereafter be transferred to, among others, QIBs and purchasers in reliance on Regulation S, in each case, in accordance with the procedure described herein. Additional Notes offered after the date
hereof may be offered and sold by the Company from time to time pursuant to one or more purchase agreements in accordance with applicable law. 

  
 -34- 








 Initial Notes and Additional Restricted Notes offered and sold to QIBs in the United States of
America in reliance on Rule 144A (the “Rule 144A Notes”) shall be issued in the form of a permanent global Note substantially in the form of Exhibit A, which is hereby incorporated by reference and made a part of this
Indenture, including appropriate legends as set forth in Section 2.01(d) (the “Rule 144A Global Note”), deposited with the Trustee, as custodian for DTC, duly executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee as
hereinafter provided. The Rule 144A Global Note may be represented by more than one certificate, if so required by DTC’s rules regarding the maximum principal amount to be represented by a single certificate. The aggregate principal amount of
the Rule 144A Global Note may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee, as custodian for DTC or its nominee, as hereinafter provided. 

Initial Notes and any Additional Restricted Notes offered and sold outside the United States of America (the “Regulation S
Notes”) in reliance on Regulation S shall be issued in the form of a permanent global Note, without interest coupons, substantially in the form of Exhibit A including appropriate legends as set forth in Section 2.01(d) (the
“Regulation S Global Note”). Each Regulation S Global Note will be deposited upon issuance with, or on behalf of, the Trustee as custodian for DTC in the manner described in this Article 2 for credit to the respective accounts of
the purchasers (or to such other accounts as they may direct), including, but not limited to, accounts at Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V. (“Euroclear”) or Clearstream Banking, société anonyme (“Clearstream”).
Prior to the 40th day after the later of the commencement of the offering of the Initial Notes and the Issue Date (such period through and including such 40th day, the “Restricted Period”), interests in the Regulation S Global Note
may only be transferred to non-U.S. persons pursuant to Regulation S, unless exchanged for interests in a Global Note in accordance with the transfer and certification requirements described herein. 

Investors may hold their interests in the Regulation S Global Note through organizations other than Euroclear or Clearstream that are
participants in DTC’s system or directly through Euroclear or Clearstream, if they are participants in such systems, or indirectly through organizations which are participants in such systems. If such interests are held through Euroclear or
Clearstream, Euroclear and Clearstream will hold such interests in the applicable Regulation S Global Note on behalf of their participants through customers’ securities accounts in their respective names on the books of their respective
depositaries. Such depositaries, in turn, will hold such interests in the applicable Regulation S Global Note in customers’ securities accounts in the depositaries’ names on the books of DTC. 

The Regulation S Global Note may be represented by more than one certificate, if so required by DTC’s rules regarding the maximum
principal amount to be represented by a single certificate. The aggregate principal amount of the Regulation S Global Note may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee, as custodian for DTC or its
nominee, as hereinafter provided. 
 Exchange Notes exchanged for interests in the Rule 144A Notes and the Regulation S Notes will be issued
in the form of a permanent global Note, substantially in the form of Exhibit B, which is hereby incorporated by reference and made a part of this Indenture, deposited with the Trustee as hereinafter provided, including the appropriate legend
set forth in Section 2.01(d) (the “Exchange Global Note”). The Exchange Global Note will be deposited upon issuance with, or on behalf of, the Trustee as custodian for DTC or its nominee, duly executed by the Company and
authenticated by the Trustee as hereinafter provided. The Exchange Global Note may be represented by more than one certificate, if so required by DTC’s rules regarding the maximum principal amount to be represented by a single certificate. 

The Rule 144A Global Note, the Regulation S Global Note and the Exchange Global Note are sometimes collectively herein referred to as the
“Global Notes.” 
 The principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Notes shall be payable at the office
or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose or at such other office or agency of the Company as may be maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 2.03; provided, however, that, at the option of the Company, each
installment of interest may be paid by (i) check mailed to addresses of the Persons entitled thereto as such addresses shall appear on the Note Register or (ii) wire transfer to an account located in the United States maintained by the
payee, subject  

  
 -35- 








 
to the last sentence of this paragraph. Payments in respect of Notes represented by a Global Note (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) will be made by wire transfer of immediately
available funds to the accounts specified by DTC. Payments in respect of Notes represented by Definitive Notes (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) held by a Holder of at least $1,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes
represented by Definitive Notes will be made by wire transfer to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the payee with a bank in the United States if such Holder elects payment by wire transfer by giving written notice to the Trustee or the Paying
Agent to such effect designating such account no later than 15 days immediately preceding the relevant due date for payment (or such other date as the Trustee may accept in its discretion). Interest on the Notes will be computed on the basis of a
360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. 
 The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange
rule or usage, in addition to those set forth on Exhibit A and Exhibit B and in Section 2.01(d). The Company shall approve any notation, endorsement or legend on the Notes. Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication.
The terms of the Notes set forth in Exhibit A and Exhibit B are part of the terms of this Indenture and, to the extent applicable, the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery or assumption of
this Indenture, as applicable, expressly agree to be bound by such terms. 
 (c) Denominations. The Notes shall be issuable only in
fully registered form, without coupons, and only in denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. 
 (d)
Restrictive Legends. Unless and until (i) an Initial Note or an Additional Note issued as a Transfer Restricted Note is sold under an effective registration statement, (ii) an Initial Note or an Additional Note issued as a Transfer
Restricted Note is exchanged for an Exchange Note in connection with an effective registration statement, in each case pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement or a similar agreement or (iii) an Initial Note or Additional Note is exchanged
for a Note that does not bear the Restricted Notes Legend in accordance with Section 2.06(e): 
 (1) the Rule 144A
Global Note and the Regulation S Global Note shall bear the following legend on the face thereof the “Restricted Notes Legend”: 

THIS NOTE HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY
STATE OR OTHER JURISDICTION. NEITHER THIS NOTE NOR ANY INTEREST OR PARTICIPATION HEREIN MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, ASSIGNED, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED, ENCUMBERED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR UNLESS SUCH TRANSACTION IS
EXEMPT FROM, OR NOT SUBJECT TO, SUCH REGISTRATION. THE HOLDER OF THIS NOTE, BY ITS ACCEPTANCE HEREOF, AGREES ON ITS OWN BEHALF AND ON BEHALF OF ANY INVESTOR ACCOUNT FOR WHICH IT HAS PURCHASED SECURITIES TO OFFER, SELL OR OTHERWISE TRANSFER SUCH
SECURITY, PRIOR TO THE DATE (THE “RESALE RESTRICTION TERMINATION DATE”) THAT IS ONE YEAR, IN THE CASE OF RULE 144A NOTES, AND 40 DAYS, IN THE CASE OF REGULATION S NOTES, AFTER THE LATER OF THE ORIGINAL ISSUE DATE HEREOF, THE ORIGINAL ISSUE
DATE OF THE ISSUANCE OF ANY ADDITIONAL NOTES AND THE LAST DATE ON WHICH THE ISSUER OR ANY AFFILIATE OF THE ISSUER WAS THE OWNER OF THIS SECURITY (OR ANY PREDECESSOR OF SUCH SECURITY), ONLY (A) TO THE ISSUER, (B) PURSUANT TO A REGISTRATION
STATEMENT THAT HAS BEEN DECLARED EFFECTIVE UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, (C) FOR SO LONG AS THE SECURITIES ARE ELIGIBLE FOR RESALE PURSUANT TO RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT (“RULE 144A”), TO A PERSON IT REASONABLY BELIEVES IS A
“QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER” AS DEFINED IN RULE 144A THAT PURCHASES FOR ITS OWN ACCOUNT OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OF A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER TO WHOM NOTICE IS GIVEN THAT THE TRANSFER IS BEING MADE IN RELIANCE ON RULE 144A,
(D) PURSUANT TO OFFERS AND SALES TO NON-U.S. PERSONS THAT OCCUR OUTSIDE THE 

  
 -36- 








 
UNITED STATES WITHIN THE MEANING OF REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, (E) TO AN INSTITUTIONAL “ACCREDITED INVESTOR” WITHIN THE MEANING OF RULE 501(a)(1), (2), (3) OR
(7) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT THAT IS AN INSTITUTIONAL ACCREDITED INVESTOR ACQUIRING THE SECURITY FOR ITS OWN ACCOUNT OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OF SUCH AN INSTITUTIONAL ACCREDITED INVESTOR, IN EACH CASE IN A MINIMUM PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF THE SECURITIES
OF $250,000, FOR INVESTMENT PURPOSES AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO OR FOR OFFER OR SALE IN CONNECTION WITH ANY DISTRIBUTION IN VIOLATION OF THE SECURITIES ACT, OR (F) PURSUANT TO ANOTHER AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE
SECURITIES ACT, SUBJECT TO THE ISSUER’S AND THE TRUSTEE’S RIGHT PRIOR TO ANY SUCH OFFER, SALE OR TRANSFER (1) PURSUANT TO CLAUSES (D), (E) OR (F) TO REQUIRE THE DELIVERY OF AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, CERTIFICATION AND/ OR OTHER
INFORMATION SATISFACTORY TO EACH OF THEM, AND (2) IN EACH OF THE FOREGOING CASES, TO REQUIRE THAT A CERTIFICATE OF TRANSFER IN THE FORM APPEARING ON THIS NOTE IS COMPLETED AND DELIVERED BY THE TRANSFEROR TO THE TRUSTEE. THIS LEGEND WILL BE
REMOVED UPON THE REQUEST OF THE HOLDER AFTER THE RESALE RESTRICTION TERMINATION DATE. [IN THE CASE OF REGULATION S NOTES: BY ITS ACQUISITION HEREOF, THE HOLDER HEREOF REPRESENTS THAT IT IS NOT A U.S. PERSON NOR IS IT PURCHASING FOR THE ACCOUNT OF A
U.S. PERSON AND IS ACQUIRING THIS SECURITY IN AN OFFSHORE TRANSACTION IN ACCORDANCE WITH REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT.] 

(2) Each Global Note, whether or not an Initial Note, shall bear the following legend on the face thereof: 

UNLESS THIS CERTIFICATE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY, A NEW YORK CORPORATION
(“DTC”), NEW YORK, NEW YORK, TO THE COMPANY OR ITS AGENT FOR REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER, EXCHANGE OR PAYMENT, AND ANY CERTIFICATE ISSUED IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF CEDE & CO. OR IN SUCH OTHER NAME AS IS REQUESTED BY AN
AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC (AND ANY PAYMENT IS MADE TO CEDE & CO. OR TO SUCH OTHER ENTITY AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS
WRONGFUL INASMUCH AS THE REGISTERED OWNER HEREOF, CEDE & CO., HAS AN INTEREST HEREIN. 
 TRANSFERS OF THIS GLOBAL
SECURITY SHALL BE LIMITED TO TRANSFERS IN WHOLE, BUT NOT IN PART, TO DTC, TO NOMINEES OF DTC OR TO A SUCCESSOR THEREOF OR SUCH SUCCESSOR’S NOMINEE AND TRANSFERS OF PORTIONS OF THIS GLOBAL SECURITY SHALL BE LIMITED TO TRANSFERS MADE IN

 -37- 








 (ii) Each Global Note initially shall (x) be registered in the name of DTC or the nominee of
DTC, (y) be delivered to the Trustee as custodian for DTC and (z) bear legends as set forth in Section 2.01(d). Transfers of a Global Note (but not a beneficial interest therein) will be limited to transfers thereof in whole, but not
in part, to the Depositary, its successors or their respective nominees, except as set forth in Sections 2.01(e)(v) and 2.01(f). If a beneficial interest in a Global Note is transferred or exchanged for a beneficial interest in another Global Note,
the Trustee will (x) record a decrease in the principal amount of the Global Note being transferred or exchanged equal to the principal amount of such transfer or exchange and (y) record a like increase in the principal amount of the other
Global Note on the Schedule of Exchanges of Interests with respect to such Global Note. Any beneficial interest in one Global Note that is transferred to a Person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in another Global Note, or exchanged for
an interest in another Global Note, will, upon transfer or exchange, cease to be an interest in such Global Note and become an interest in the other Global Note and, accordingly, will thereafter be subject to all transfer and exchange restrictions,
if any, and other procedures applicable to beneficial interests in such other Global Note for as long as it remains such an interest. 

(iii) Members of, or participants in, DTC (“Agent Members”) shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any
Global Note held on their behalf by DTC or by the Trustee as the custodian of DTC or under such Global Note, and DTC may be treated by the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee as the absolute owner of such Global Note for
all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the Company or the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by DTC
or impair, as between DTC and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices of DTC governing the exercise of the rights of a Holder of a beneficial interest in any Global Note. 

(iv) In connection with any transfer of a portion of the beneficial interest in a Global Note pursuant to Section 2.01(f) to beneficial
owners who are required to hold Definitive Notes, the Custodian shall reflect on its books and records the date and a decrease in the principal amount of such Global Note in an amount equal to the principal amount of the beneficial interest in the
Global Note to be transferred, and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, one or more Definitive Notes of like tenor and amount. 

(v) In connection with the transfer of an entire Global Note to beneficial owners pursuant to Section 2.01(f), such Global Note shall be
deemed to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, to each beneficial owner identified by DTC in exchange for its beneficial interest in such
Global Note, an equal aggregate principal amount of Definitive Notes of authorized denominations. 
 (vi) The Holder of a Global Note may
grant proxies and otherwise authorize any person, including Agent Members and persons that may hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action which a Holder is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Notes. 

(vii) Any Holder of a Global Note shall, by acceptance of such Global Note, agree that transfers of beneficial interests in such Global Note
may be effected only through a book-entry system maintained by (a) the Holder of such Global Note (or its agent) or (b) any holder of a beneficial interest in such Global Note, and that ownership of a beneficial interest in such Global
Note shall be required to be reflected in a book entry. 
 (f) Definitive Notes. 

(i) Except as provided below, owners of beneficial interests in Global Notes will not be entitled to receive Definitive Notes. If required to
do so pursuant to any applicable law or regulation, beneficial owners may obtain Definitive Notes in exchange for their beneficial interests in a Global Note upon written request in accordance with DTC’s and the Registrar’s procedures. In
addition, Definitive Notes shall be transferred to all beneficial owners in exchange for their beneficial interests in a Global Note if (A) DTC notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary for such Global Note
or DTC ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, at a time when DTC is required to be so registered in order to act as depositary, and in each case a successor depositary is not appointed by the Company within 90 days of such
notice or, (B) the Company in its sole discretion executes and delivers to the Trustee and Registrar an Officers’ Certificate stating that such Global Note shall be so exchangeable or (C) an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing and the Registrar has received a request from DTC. In the event of the occurrence of any of the events specified in the second preceding sentence or in clause (A), (B) or (C) of the preceding sentence, the Company shall promptly
make available to the Trustee a reasonable supply of Definitive Notes. 

  
 -38- 








 (ii) Any Definitive Note delivered in exchange for an interest in a Global Note pursuant to
Section 2.01(e)(iii) or (iv) shall, except as otherwise provided by Section 2.06(d), bear the Restricted Notes Legend. 

(iii) If a Definitive Note is transferred or exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Global Note, the Trustee will (x) cancel such
Definitive Note, (y) record an increase in the principal amount of such Global Note equal to the principal amount of such transfer or exchange and (z) in the event that such transfer or exchange involves less than the entire principal
amount of the canceled Certificated Note, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, to the transferring Holder a new Definitive Note in authorized denominations representing the principal amount
not so transferred. 
 (iv) If a Definitive Note is transferred or exchanged for another Definitive Note, (x) the Trustee will cancel
the Definitive Note being transferred or exchanged, (y) the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, one or more new Definitive Notes in authorized denominations having an aggregate principal
amount equal to the principal amount of such transfer or exchange to the transferee (in the case of a transfer) or the Holder of the canceled Definitive Note (in the case of an exchange), registered in the name of such transferee or Holder, as
applicable, and (z) if such transfer or exchange involves less than the entire principal amount of the canceled Definitive Note, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery to the Holder
thereof, one or more Definitive Notes in authorized denominations having an aggregate principal amount equal to the untransferred or unexchanged portion of the canceled Definitive Notes, registered in the name of the Holder thereof. 

Section 2.02 Execution and Authentication. 

On the Issue Date, the Trustee shall, upon receipt of a Company 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 any Additional Notes and Exchange Notes for an aggregate principal amount specified in such
Authentication Order for such Additional Notes or Exchange Notes issued hereunder. At least one Officer shall sign the Notes for the Company by manual or facsimile signature. If the Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at
the time the Trustee authenticates the Note, the Note shall be valid nevertheless. 
 A Note shall not be valid until an authorized officer
of the Trustee manually authenticates the Note. The signature of the Trustee on a Note shall be conclusive evidence that such Note has been duly and validly authenticated and issued under this Indenture. A Note shall be dated the date of its
authentication. 
 At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Trustee shall authenticate and
make available for delivery: (1) Initial Notes for original issue on the Issue Date in an aggregate principal amount of $750,000,000, (2) subject to the terms of this Indenture, Additional Notes for original issue in an unlimited principal
amount, (3) Exchange Notes for issue only in an Exchange Offer pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement or upon resale under an effective Shelf Registration Statement, and only in exchange for Initial Notes or Additional Notes of an equal
principal amount and (4) under the circumstances set forth in Section 2.06(e), Initial Notes or Additional Notes in the form of an Unrestricted Global Note, in each case upon a Company Order. Such Company Order shall specify whether the
Notes will be in the form of Definitive Notes or Global Notes, the amount of the Notes to be authenticated and the date on which the original issue of Notes is to be authenticated and whether the Notes are to be Initial Notes, Additional Notes or
Exchange Notes. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, prior to authenticating any Note hereunder, the Trustee (or Authenticating Agent) shall receive an Authentication Order from the Company. 

On the Merger Consummation Date, Kindred, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee will enter into a supplemental indenture substantially in
the form of Exhibit D hereto. In connection therewith, Kindred will, in accordance with this Section 2.02, execute and deliver Initial Notes in the form set forth in Exhibit A (the “Kindred Notes”) in replacement of the
Initial Notes executed and delivered by the Escrow Issuer on the Issue Date (the “Escrow Issuer Notes”) in the same principal amounts as the Escrow Issuer Notes and in the name of the registered


  
 -39- 








 
owners of the Escrow Issuer Notes, and will deliver to the Trustee a Company Order for the authentication of the Kindred Notes and the cancellation of the Escrow Issuer Notes (an
“Authentication and Cancellation Order”). Upon receipt of such Authentication and Cancellation Order, the Trustee will authenticate the Kindred Notes, and the Escrow Issuer Notes will, upon such authentication, be canceled. 

The Trustee may appoint an agent (the “Authenticating Agent”) reasonably acceptable to the Company to authenticate the Notes.
Any such instrument shall be evidenced by an instrument signed by a Trust Officer, a copy of which shall be furnished to the Company. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, any such Authenticating Agent may authenticate Notes whenever the
Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by the Authenticating Agent. An Authenticating Agent has the same rights as any Registrar, Paying Agent or agent for service of notices and
demands. 
 In case the Company, pursuant to Article 5, shall be consolidated or merged with or into or wind up into any other Person or
shall sell, assign, convey, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and the successor Person resulting from such consolidation, or
surviving such merger, or into which the Company shall have been merged or wound up into, or the Person which shall have received a sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer, or other disposition as aforesaid, shall have executed an indenture
supplemental hereto with the Trustee pursuant to Article 5, any of the Notes authenticated or delivered prior to such consolidation, merger, sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition may, from time to time, at the request of
the successor Person, be exchanged for other Notes executed in the name of the successor Person with such changes in phraseology and form as may be appropriate, but otherwise in substance of like tenor as the Notes surrendered for such exchange and
of like principal amount; and the Trustee, upon Company Order of the successor Person, shall authenticate and make available for delivery Notes as specified in such order for the purpose of such exchange. If Notes shall at any time be authenticated
and delivered in any new name of a successor Person pursuant to this Section 2.02 in exchange or substitution for or upon registration of transfer of any Notes, such successor Person, at the option of the Holders but without expense to them,
shall provide for the exchange of all Notes at the time outstanding for Notes authenticated and delivered in such new name. 

Section 2.03 Registrar and Paying Agent. 

The Company shall maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (the
“Registrar”) and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (the “Paying Agent”). The Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange (the “Note
Register”). The Company may have one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent and the term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar. 

The Company shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Registrar or Paying Agent not a party to this Indenture, which shall
incorporate the terms of the Trust Indenture Act to the extent required thereunder. The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent. The Company shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of each such
agent. If the Company fails to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefor pursuant to Section 7.07. The Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries organized
in the United States may act as Paying Agent, Registrar or transfer agent. 
 The Company initially appoints the Trustee as Registrar
and Paying Agent for the Notes and as Custodian. The Company may remove any Registrar or Paying Agent upon written notice to such Registrar or Paying Agent and to the Trustee; provided, however, that no such removal shall become
effective until (i) acceptance of any appointment by a successor as evidenced by an appropriate agreement entered into by the Company and such successor Registrar or Paying Agent, as the case may be, and delivered to the Trustee or
(ii) notification to the Trustee that the Trustee shall serve as Registrar or Paying Agent until the appointment of a successor in accordance with clause (i) above. The Registrar or Paying Agent may resign at any time upon written notice
to the Company and the Trustee. 
 The Company initially appoints The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) to act as
Depositary with respect to the Global Notes. The Company has entered into a letter of representations with DTC in the form provided by DTC and the Trustee and each Agent are hereby authorized to act in accordance with such letter and Applicable
Procedures. 

  
 -40- 








 The Company will be responsible for making calculations called for under the Notes, including but
not limited to determination of Redemption Price, premium, if any, and any additional amounts or other amounts payable to the Notes. The Company will make the calculations in good faith and, absent manifest error, its calculations will be final and
binding on the Holders. The Company will provide a schedule of its calculations to the Trustee when requested by the Trustee, and the Trustee is entitled to rely conclusively on the accuracy of the Company’s calculations without independent
verification. 
 Section 2.04 Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. 

The Company shall require each Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to agree in writing that such Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the
benefit of Holders of the Notes or the Trustee all money held by such Paying Agent for the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes (whether such assets have been distributed to it by the Company or other obligors on the
Notes), shall notify the Trustee in writing of any default by the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor in making any such payment and shall during the continuance of any default by the Company (or any other obligor upon the Notes) in the making of
any payment in respect of the Notes, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith deliver to the Trustee all sums held in trust by such Paying Agent for payment in respect of the Notes together with a full accounting thereof. If the Company or
a Subsidiary of the Company acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the money held by it as Paying Agent and hold it as a separate trust fund. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to pay all money held by it
to the Trustee and to account for any funds or assets disbursed by such Paying Agent. Upon payment to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company) shall have no further liability for the money delivered to
the Trustee. Upon any bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding with respect to the Company, 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
Holders of the Notes and shall otherwise comply with Trust Indenture Act Section 312(a). If the Trustee is not the Registrar, or to the extent otherwise required under the Trust Indenture Act, the Company, on its own behalf and on behalf of
each of the Subsidiary Guarantors, shall furnish or cause the Registrar to furnish to the Trustee, in writing at least five Business Days before each Interest Payment Date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such
form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of Holders of the Notes and the Company shall otherwise comply with Trust Indenture Act Section 312(a). 

Section 2.06 Transfer and Exchange. 

(a) General. A Holder may transfer a Note to another Person or exchange a Note for another Note or Notes of any authorized denomination
by presenting to the Trustee a written request therefor stating the name of the proposed transferee or requesting such an exchange, accompanied by any certification, opinion or other document required by this Section 2.06. The Trustee will
promptly register any transfer or exchange that meets the requirements of this Section 2.06 by noting the same in the register maintained by the Trustee for the purpose, and no transfer or exchange will be effective until it is registered in
such register. The transfer or exchange of any Note may only be made in accordance with this Section 2.06 and Section 2.01(e) and 2.01(f), as applicable, and, in the case of a Global Note, the applicable rules and procedures of DTC,
Euroclear and Clearstream. The Trustee shall refuse to register any requested transfer or exchange that does not comply with this Section 2.06(a). 

(b) Transfers of Rule 144A Notes. The following provisions shall apply with respect to any proposed registration of transfer of a Rule
144A Note or a beneficial interest therein prior to the date which is one year after the later of the date of its original issue and the last date on which the Company or any Affiliate of the Company was the owner of such Notes (or any predecessor
thereto) (the “Resale Restriction Termination Date”): 

  
 -41- 








 (i) a registration of transfer of a Rule 144A Note or a beneficial interest
therein to a QIB shall be made upon the representation of the transferee in the form as set forth on the reverse of the Note that it is purchasing for its own account or an account with respect to which it exercises sole investment discretion and
that it and any such account is a “qualified institutional buyer” within the meaning of Rule 144A, and is aware that the sale to it is being made in reliance on Rule 144A and acknowledges that it has received such information regarding the
Company as the undersigned has requested pursuant to Rule 144A or has determined not to request such information and that it is aware that the transferor is relying upon its foregoing representations in order to claim the exemption from registration
provided by Rule 144A; provided that no such written representation or other written certification shall be required in connection with the transfer of a beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Note to a transferee in the form of a
beneficial interest in that Rule 144A Global Note; and 
 (ii) a registration of transfer of a Rule 144A Note or a beneficial
interest therein to a Non-U.S. Person shall be made upon receipt by the Trustee or its agent of a certificate substantially in the form set forth in Section 2.08 from the proposed transferee and, if requested by the Company, the delivery of an
opinion of counsel, certification and/or other information satisfactory to the Company. 
 (c) Transfers of Regulations S Notes. The
following provisions shall apply with respect to any proposed transfer of a Regulation S Note or a beneficial interest therein prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period: 

(i) a transfer of a Regulation S Note or a beneficial interest therein to a QIB shall be made upon the representation of the
transferee, in the form of assignment on the reverse of the certificate, that it is purchasing the Note for its own account or an account with respect to which it exercises sole investment discretion and that it and any such account is a
“qualified institutional buyer” within the meaning of Rule 144A, is aware that the sale to it is being made in reliance on Rule 144A and acknowledges that it has received such information regarding the Company as the undersigned has
requested pursuant to Rule 144A or has determined not to request such information and that it is aware that the transferor is relying upon its foregoing representations in order to claim the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144A; and

 (ii) a transfer of a Regulation S Note or a beneficial interest therein to a Non-U.S. Person shall be made upon receipt by
the Trustee or its agent of a certificate substantially in the form set forth in Section 2.08 from the proposed transferee and, if requested by the Company, receipt by the Trustee or its agent of an opinion of counsel, certification and/or
other information satisfactory to the Company provided that no such written representation or other written certification shall be required in connection with the transfer of a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Note to a
transferee in the form of a beneficial interest in that Regulation S Note. 
 After the expiration of the Restricted Period, interests in
the Regulation S Note may be transferred in accordance with applicable law without requiring the certification set forth in Section 2.07, Section 2.08 or any additional certification. 

(d) Restricted Notes Legend. Upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes not bearing a Restricted Notes Legend, the Registrar
shall deliver Notes that do not bear a Restricted Notes Legend. Upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes bearing a Restricted Notes Legend, the Registrar shall deliver only Notes that bear a Restricted Notes Legend unless (i) Initial
Notes or Additional Notes are being exchanged for Exchange Notes in an Exchange Offer pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, in which case the Exchange Notes shall not bear a Restricted Notes Legend, (ii) an Initial Note or Additional
Note is being transferred pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement or other effective registration statement, (iii) Initial Notes or Additional Notes are being exchanged for Notes that do not bear the Restricted Notes Legend in accordance
with Section 2.06(e) or (iv) there is delivered to the Registrar an Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee to the effect that neither such legend nor the related restrictions on transfer are required in
order to maintain compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act. Any Additional Notes sold in a registered offering shall not be required to bear the Restricted Notes Legend. 

  
 -42- 








 (e) Automatic Exchange of Beneficial Interests in a Restricted Global Note for Beneficial
Interests in an Unrestricted Global Note. Upon the Company’s satisfaction that the Restricted Notes Legend shall no longer be required in order to maintain compliance with the Securities Act, beneficial interests in a Global Note bearing
the Restricted Notes Legend (a “Restricted Global Note”) may be automatically exchanged into beneficial interests in a Global Note not bearing the Restricted Notes Legend (an “Unrestricted Global Note”) without any
action required by or on behalf of the Holder (the “Automatic Exchange”) at any time on or after the date that is the 366th calendar day after (A) with respect to the Notes issued on the Issue Date, the Issue Date or
(B) with respect to Additional Notes, if any, the issue date of such Additional Notes, or, in each case, if such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (the “Automatic Exchange Date”). Upon the
Company’s satisfaction that the Restricted Notes Legend shall no longer be required in order to maintain compliance with the Securities Act, the Company may pursuant to the Applicable Procedures (i) provide written notice to DTC, with a
copy to the Trustee, at least fifteen (15) calendar days prior to the Automatic Exchange Date, instructing DTC to direct the Depositary to exchange all of the outstanding beneficial interests in a particular Restricted Global Note to the
Unrestricted Global Note, which the Company shall have previously otherwise made eligible for exchange with the DTC, (ii) provide prior written notice (the “Automatic Exchange Notice”) to each Holder at such Holder’s
address appearing in the register of Holders at least 15 calendar days prior to the Automatic Exchange Date (the “Automatic Exchange Notice Date”), which notice must include (w) the Automatic Exchange Date, (x) the section
of this Indenture pursuant to which the Automatic Exchange shall occur, (y) the “CUSIP” number of the Restricted Global Note from which such Holder’s beneficial interests will be transferred and the (z) “CUSIP”
number of the Unrestricted Global Note into which such Holder’s beneficial interests will be transferred, and (iii) on or prior to the Automatic Exchange Date, deliver to the Trustee for authentication one or more Unrestricted Global
Notes, duly executed by the Company, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Restricted Global Notes to be exchanged. At the Company’s request on no less than five (5) Business Days’ notice prior to
the date notice to Holders of the Automatic Exchange is required to be sent (or such shorter time as the Trustee may agree), the Trustee shall deliver, in the Company’s name and at its expense, the Automatic Exchange Notice to each Holder at
such Holder’s address appearing in the register of Holders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.06(e), during the fifteen (15) day period prior to the Automatic Exchange Date, no transfers or exchanges other
than pursuant to this Section 2.06(e) shall be permitted without the prior written consent of the Company. As a condition to any Automatic Exchange, the Company shall provide, and the Trustee shall be entitled to rely upon, an Officers’
Certificate in form reasonably acceptable to the Trustee to the effect that the Automatic Exchange shall be effected in compliance with the Securities Act and that the restrictions on transfer contained herein and in the Restricted Notes Legend
shall no longer be required in order to maintain compliance with the Securities Act and that the aggregate principal amount of the particular Restricted Global Note is to be transferred to the particular Unrestricted Global Note by adjustment made
on the records of the Trustee, as custodian for the Depositary to reflect the Automatic Exchange. Upon such exchange of beneficial interests pursuant to this Section 2.06(e), the aggregate principal amount of the Global Notes shall be increased
or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee, as custodian for the Depositary, to reflect the relevant increase or decrease in the principal amount of such Global Note resulting from the applicable exchange. The Restricted Global
Note from which beneficial interests are transferred pursuant to an Automatic Exchange shall be canceled following the Automatic Exchange. 

(f) Retention of Written Communications. The Registrar shall retain copies of all letters, notices and other written communications
received pursuant to Section 2.01 or this Section 2.06. The Company shall have the right to inspect and make copies of all such letters, notices or other written communications at any reasonable time upon the giving of reasonable prior
written notice to the Registrar. 
 (g) Obligations with Respect to Transfers and Exchanges of Notes. 

(i) To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall, subject to the other terms and conditions of this Article II,
execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery Definitive Notes and Global Notes at the Registrar’s request. 

(ii) No service charge shall be made to a Holder for any registration of transfer or exchange, but Holders shall be required to pay a sum
sufficient to cover any transfer tax assessments or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes, assessments or similar governmental charges payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections
2.02, 2.06, 2.10, 3.06, 4.10, 4.14, or 9.05). 

  
 -43- 








 (iii) The Company (and the Registrar) shall not be required to register the transfer of or
exchange of any Note (A) for a period beginning (1) 15 days before the mailing of a notice of an offer to repurchase or redeem Notes and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing or (2) 15 days before an Interest
Payment Date and ending on such Interest Payment Date or (B) called for redemption or repurchase, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. 

(iv) Prior to the due presentation for registration of transfer of any Note, the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Registrar may
deem and treat the person in whose name a Note is registered as the owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of, premium, if any, and (subject to paragraph 2 of the forms of Note attached hereto as Exhibit A)
interest on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, including without limitation the transfer or exchange of such Note, whether or not such Note is overdue, and none of the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Registrar shall be
affected by notice to the contrary. 
 (v) Any Definitive Note delivered in exchange for an interest in a Global Note pursuant to
Section 2.01(f) shall, except as otherwise provided by Section 2.06(d), bear the Restricted Notes Legend. 
 (vi) All Notes issued
upon any transfer or exchange pursuant to the terms of this Indenture shall evidence the same debt and shall be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as the Notes surrendered upon such transfer or exchange. 

(h) No Obligation of the Trustee. 

(i) The Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation under any circumstances to any beneficial owner of a Global Note, a member of, or a
participant in, DTC or other Person, including without limitation, with respect to the accuracy of the records of DTC or its nominee or of any participant or member thereof, with respect to any ownership interest in the Notes or with respect to the
delivery to any participant, member, beneficial owner or other Person (other than DTC) of any notice (including any notice of redemption or purchase) or the payment of any amount or delivery of any Notes (or other security or property) under or with
respect to such Notes. All notices and communications to be given to the Holders and all payments to be made to Holders in respect of the Notes shall be given or made only to or upon the order of the Holders (which shall be DTC or its nominee in the
case of a Global Note). The Trustee may rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon information furnished by DTC with respect to its members, participants and any beneficial owners. 

(ii) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, neither the Trustee nor the Registrar shall be responsible to monitor,
determine, inquire or otherwise ascertain whether any transfer complies with applicable law, including the registration provisions of or exemptions from the Securities Act, applicable state securities laws, the rules of any Depositary, ERISA, the
Code or the Investment Company Act; provided that if a certificate is specifically required by the express terms of this Section 2.06 to be delivered to the Trustee or the Registrar by a purchaser or transferee of a Note, the Trustee or
the Registrar, as the case may be, shall be under a duty to receive and examine the same to determine whether the certificate substantially complies on its face with the express terms of this Indenture and shall promptly notify the party delivering
the same if such transfer does not comply with such terms. 
 (iii) Affiliate Holders. By accepting a beneficial interest in a
Global Note, any Person that is an Affiliate of the Company agrees to give notice to the Company, the Trustee and the Registrar of the acquisition and its Affiliate status.

	 	Re:	Kindred Escrow Corp. II (the “Company”) 


	 	 	8.00% Senior Notes due 2020 (the “Notes”) 

 Ladies and Gentlemen: 

In connection with our proposed sale of $[            ] aggregate principal amount
of the Rule 144A Note in exchange for an equivalent beneficial interest in a Regulation S Note, we confirm that such sale has been effected pursuant to and in accordance with Regulation S under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the “Securities Act”), and, accordingly, we represent that: 
 (a) the offer of the Notes was not made to a
person in the United States; 
 (b) either (i) at the time the buy order was originated, the transferee was outside the
United States or we and any person acting on our behalf reasonably believed that the transferee was outside the United States or (ii) the transaction was executed in, on or through the facilities of a designated off-shore securities market and
neither we nor any person acting on our behalf knows that the transaction has been pre-arranged with a buyer in the United States; 

(c) no directed selling efforts have been made in the United States in contravention of the requirements of Rule 903(a)(2) or
Rule 904(a)(2) of Regulation S, as applicable; and 
 (d) the transaction is not part of a plan or scheme to evade the
registration requirements of the Securities Act. 
 In addition, if the sale is made during a restricted period and the provisions of Rule
903(b)(2), Rule 903(b)(3) or Rule 904(b)(1) of Regulation S are applicable thereto, we confirm that such sale has been made in accordance with the applicable provisions of Rule 903(b)(2), Rule 903(b)(3) or Rule 904(b)(1), as the case may be. 

We also hereby certify that we [are][are not] an Affiliate of the Company and, to our knowledge, the transferee of the Notes [is][is not] an

 Section 2.09 Replacement Notes. 

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

Every replacement Note is a contractual obligation of the Company and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and
proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder. 
 Section 2.10 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, a Note does
not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Note. 
 If a Note is replaced pursuant to
Section 2.09, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser. 

If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.01, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to
accrue. 
 If the Paying Agent (other than the Company, 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 2.11 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 Company, or by any Affiliate of the Company, 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
Trust Officer of the Trustee knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Notes so owned that 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 Company or any obligor upon the Notes or any Affiliate of the Company or of such other obligor. 

  
 -46- 








 Section 2.12 Temporary Notes. 

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

Holders and beneficial holders, as the case may be, of temporary Notes (until exchanged) shall be entitled to all of the benefits accorded to
Holders, or beneficial holders, respectively, of Notes under this Indenture. 
 Section 2.13 Cancellation. 

The Company 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 in accordance with its customary procedures (subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act). Certification of cancellation of all cancelled Notes
shall be delivered to the Company upon request. The Company may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation other than in connection with a transfer or exchange upon an
Authentication Order. 
 Section 2.14 Defaulted Interest. 

If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it 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. The Company 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 Company 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 2.14. The Company 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 Company shall promptly notify the Trustee of such special record date. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Company (or, upon the written request of the Company, the Trustee in the name and at the
expense of the Company) shall mail or cause to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder a notice at his or her address as it appears in the Note Register that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of
such interest to be paid. 
 Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.14 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 2.15 CUSIP Numbers. 

The Company in issuing the Notes may use CUSIP numbers (if then generally in use) and, if so, the Trustee may use CUSIP numbers in
notices (including 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
or notice of redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such notice or redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company will as promptly
as practicable notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the CUSIP numbers.

 ARTICLE 3 

REDEMPTION 

Section 3.01 Notices to Trustee. 

If the Company provides notice of redemption in accordance with this Indenture, it shall deliver a copy of such redemption notice to the
Trustee at or promptly following the time it is delivered to Holders. If the Redemption Price is not known at the time the redemption notice is to be given, the actual Redemption Price, calculated as described in the terms of the Securities, will be
set forth in an Officers’ Certificate of the Company delivered to the Trustee no later than two Business Days prior to the redemption date (unless the Trustee agrees to a shorter period). 

Section 3.02 Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed or Purchased. 

If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed or purchased in an offer to purchase at any time, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be
redeemed or purchased (a) if the Notes are listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange on which the Notes are listed or (b) on a pro rata basis or, to the
extent that selection on a pro rata basis is not practicable, by lot or by such other method the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate in accordance with and subject to the procedures of DTC. In the event of partial redemption or purchase by lot,
the particular Notes to be redeemed or purchased shall be selected, unless otherwise provided herein, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date by the Trustee from the outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption
or purchase. 
 The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Notes selected for redemption or purchase and, in the case
of any Note selected for partial redemption or purchase, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed or purchased. Notes and portions of Notes selected shall be in amounts of $2,000 or whole multiples of $1,000 on excess thereof; no Notes of $2,000
or less can be redeemed in part, except that if all of the Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed or purchased, the entire outstanding amount of Notes held by such Holder, even if not $2,000 or a multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, shall be redeemed
or purchased. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption or purchase also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase. 

Section 3.03 Notice of Redemption. 

(a) Subject to Section 3.09, the Company shall mail or cause to be mailed by first-class mail, postage prepaid, notices of redemption at
least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at such Holder’s registered address or otherwise in accordance with the procedures of DTC, except that redemption notices may be mailed
more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with Article 8 or Article 11. 
 The notice shall
identify the Notes to be redeemed and shall state: 
 (i) the redemption date; 

(ii) the Redemption Price (or manner of calculation if not then known); 

(iii) 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 will be issued in the name of the
Holder of the Notes upon cancellation of the original Note; 
 (iv) the name and address of the Paying Agent; 

  
 -48- 








 (v) that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to
collect the redemption price; 
 (vi) that, unless the Company defaults in making such redemption payment, interest on Notes
called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date; 
 (vii) the paragraph or subparagraph of the Notes
and/or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed and any conditions precedent to such redemption described in reasonable detail; and 

(viii) 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. 
 (b) At the Company’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name
and at the Company’s expense; provided that, other than in the case of a redemption pursuant to Section 3.10, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least 3 Business Days before notice of redemption is required to be
mailed or caused to be mailed to Holders pursuant to this Section 3.03 (unless a shorter notice shall be agreed to by the Trustee), an Officers’ Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice, together with the notice of
redemption to be given. 
 (c) Any notice of redemption may be made conditional on one or more conditions precedent, including any
related Equity Offering or Change of Control. If any notice of redemption is conditioned upon the occurrence of one or more conditions precedent, such notice of redemption shall state, in the Company’s discretion, that the redemption date may
be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied and/or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any such condition precedent shall not have occurred as stated in such notice of
redemption. The Company will provide prompt written notice to the Trustee not later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the second Business Day prior to the latest date specified as the redemption date (or such shorter time period with the
consent of the Trustee) rescinding such redemption in the event that any such condition precedent shall not have occurred, and such redemption and notice of redemption shall be rescinded and of no force or effect. Upon receipt of such notice from
the Company rescinding such redemption, the Trustee will promptly send a copy such notice to the holders of the Notes to be redeemed in the same manner in which the notice of redemption was given. 

Section 3.04 Effect of Notice of Redemption. 

Once notice of redemption is mailed in accordance with Section 3.03, Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the
redemption date at the redemption price (except in connection with a conditional redemption and subject to the earlier repurchase of Notes called for redemption that are the subject of a tender offer). The notice, if mailed in a manner herein
provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case, failure to give such notice by mail or 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, 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. 

(a) Prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the redemption or purchase date, the Company 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 (including Additional Interest, if any) on all Notes to be redeemed or purchased on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall promptly return to
the Company any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Company 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.

 (b) If the Company complies with the provisions of Section 3.05(a), 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 the optional redemption date is on or after a Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, the
accrued and unpaid interest, if any, shall be paid to the Person in whose name the Note is registered at the close of business on such Record Date, and no Additional Interest shall be payable to Holders whose Notes shall be subject to redemption by
the Company. 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 Company to comply with Section 3.05(a), 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. 
 Section 3.06 Notes Redeemed or Purchased in Part. 

Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed or purchased in part, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate for the
Holder at the expense of the Company 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, subject to Applicable Procedures;
provided that each new Note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. It is understood that, notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, none of an Authentication Order, an
Opinion of Counsel or an Officers’ Certificate is required for the Trustee to authenticate such new Note.

(a) At any time, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice mailed by first-class mail to each Holder’s registered
address (or with respect to Global Notes, to the extent permitted or required by applicable DTC procedures or regulations, sent electronically), the Company may redeem all or part of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal

aggregate original principal amount of Notes issued by it (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of Additional Notes) with the Net Cash Proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings at a redemption price of 108.000% of the principal amount
thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date (subject to the right of Holders on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date); provided that: 

(1) at least 65% of the aggregate original principal amount of Notes issued under this Indenture (calculated after giving
effect to any issuance of Additional Notes) remains outstanding immediately after each such redemption; and 
 (2) the
redemption occurs within 120 days after the closing of each such Equity Offering.

thereof exceeds the Asset Sale Offer Amount, the Trustee shall select the Notes, and the trustee or agent for the Pari Passu Indebtedness shall select the 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 Trustee so that only Notes in denominations of $2,000 or in integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof,

receiving dividends or liquidating distributions prior to dividends or liquidating distributions being paid on Common Stock shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make distributions on Capital Stock); 

(2) make any loans or advances to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (it being understood that the subordination of loans
or advances made to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary to other Indebtedness Incurred by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make loans or advances); or

 (4) any amendment, restatement, modification, renewal, supplement, extension,
refunding, replacement or refinancing of an agreement referred to in clauses (1), (2), (3) or this clause (4) of this Section 4.08(b); provided, however, that the encumbrances or restrictions contained in such amendment,
restatement, modification, renewal, supplement, extension, refunding, replacement or refinancing is, in the good faith judgment of the Company, not materially more restrictive, when taken as a whole, than the encumbrances and restrictions contained
in any of the agreements or instruments referred to in clauses (1), (2) or (3) of this Section 4.08(b) on the Merger Consummation Date or the date such Restricted Subsidiary became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged or consolidated
with or into the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, whichever is applicable; 
 (5) in the case of clause (3) of
Section 4.08(a), Permitted Liens or Liens otherwise permitted to be Incurred under Section 4.12 that limit the right of the debtor to dispose of property or assets subject to such Liens;

payments of principal or interest payments on the Notes when due;

licenses, asset sale agreements, sale/leaseback agreements or stock sale agreements and other agreements entered into by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary entered into in the ordinary course of business;

 (12) (i) Credit Facilities or other debt arrangements Incurred by the Company or

Credit Facilities on the Merger Consummation Date or (ii) any encumbrance so long as, in the good faith judgment of the Company, such encumbrance will not impact its ability to pay the obligations of the Company as they come due.

(a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, Incur any Indebtedness
(including Acquired Indebtedness); provided, however, that the Company and any Restricted Subsidiary may Incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) if on the date of such Incurrence and after giving effect thereto on a pro

at any one time outstanding. 
 (b) Section 4.09(a) shall not prohibit the Incurrence of the following Indebtedness:

(4) Guarantees by the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness permitted to be Incurred by the Company or
a Restricted Subsidiary in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture; provided that in the event such Indebtedness that is being Guaranteed is a Subordinated Obligation or a Guarantor Subordinated Obligation, then the related Guarantee

beneficially held by a Person other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company; and 
 (ii) any sale or other
transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company,

case, to constitute an Incurrence of such Indebtedness by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, 

  
 -61- 








 (6) (i) Indebtedness of Persons Incurred and outstanding on the date on
which such Person became a Restricted Subsidiary or was acquired by, or merged into, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than Indebtedness Incurred by such Person (a) to provide all or any portion of the funds utilized to consummate

ceasing to be a Restricted Subsidiary or any other subsequent transfer of any such shares of Preferred Stock (except to the Company or another of its Restricted Subsidiaries) shall be deemed in each case to be an issuance of such shares of Preferred
Stock not permitted by this clause (13);

this clause (15) and then outstanding, shall not exceed the greater of (x) $280.0 million and (y) 4.50% of Total Assets; provided that the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Indebtedness of Non-Guarantor Restricted
Subsidiaries permitted by this clause (15) (including Indebtedness Incurred by Non-Guarantor Restricted Subsidiaries pursuant to Section 4.09(a) and clause (6)(ii) of this Section 4.09(b)) shall not at any time exceed the greater
of (x) $250.0 million and (y) 4.00% of Total Assets. 
 (c) For purposes of determining compliance with, and the outstanding
principal amount of any particular Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to and in compliance with, this Section 4.09: 
 (1)
in the event that an item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the types of Indebtedness described in clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 4.09, the Company, in its sole discretion, shall divide and classify such item
of Indebtedness on the date of Incurrence and may later divide and reclassify such item of Indebtedness in any manner that complies with this Section 4.09 and only be required to include the amount and type of such Indebtedness in one of such
clauses; 
 (2) Guarantees of, or obligations in respect of letters of credit relating to, Indebtedness that is otherwise
included in the determination of a particular amount of Indebtedness shall not be included; 
 (3) if obligations in respect
of letters of credit are Incurred pursuant to a Credit Facility and are being treated as Incurred pursuant to clause (1) of Section 4.09(b) above and the letters of credit relate to other Indebtedness, then such other Indebtedness shall
not be included; 
 (4) the principal amount of any Disqualified Stock of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, or
Preferred Stock of a Non-Guarantor Restricted Subsidiary, shall be deemed to be equal to the greater of the maximum mandatory redemption or repurchase price (not including, in either case, any redemption or repurchase premium) and the liquidation
preference thereof, exclusive of any accrued dividends; 
 (5) Indebtedness permitted by this Section 4.09 need not be
permitted solely by reference to one provision permitting such Indebtedness but may be permitted in part by one such provision and in part by one or more other provisions of this Section 4.09 permitting such Indebtedness; 

(6) the principal amount of any Indebtedness outstanding in connection with a securitization transaction or series of
securitization transactions is the amount of obligations outstanding under the legal documents entered into as part of such transaction that would be characterized as principal if such transaction were structured as a secured lending transaction
rather than as a purchase relating to such transaction; and 

  
 -63- 








 (7) the amount of Indebtedness issued at a price that is less than the principal
amount thereof shall be equal to the amount of the liability in respect thereof determined in accordance with GAAP. 
 Accrual of interest,
accrual of dividends, the accretion of accreted value or original issue discount, the amortization of debt discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness and the payment of dividends in the form of additional shares of
Preferred Stock or Disqualified Stock shall not be deemed to be an Incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of this Section 4.09. The amount of any Indebtedness outstanding as of any date shall be (i) the accreted value thereof in the case
of any Indebtedness issued with original issue discount or the aggregate principal amount outstanding in the case of Indebtedness issued with interest payable in kind and (ii) the principal amount or liquidation preference thereof in the case
of any other Indebtedness. 
 If at any time an Unrestricted Subsidiary becomes a Restricted Subsidiary, any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary
shall be deemed to be Incurred by such Restricted Subsidiary as of such date (and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be Incurred as of such date under this Section 4.09, the Company shall be in Default of this Section 4.09). 

For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the Incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S.
dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based upon the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was Incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness, or first
committed, in the case of revolving credit Indebtedness; provided that if such Indebtedness is Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. dollar-denominated
restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S. dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such
Refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.09, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Company may Incur pursuant to this
Section 4.09 shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies. The principal amount of any Indebtedness Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if Incurred in a different currency from
the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based upon the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such Refinancing Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing. 

Section 4.10 Sales of Assets and Subsidiary Stock. 

(a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate any Asset Sale unless: 

 (1) the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at least equal to the fair
market value (such fair market value to be determined as of the date of contractually agreeing to such Asset Sale) of the Capital Stock, property or assets subject to such Asset Sale; 

(2) such fair market value (including the fair market value of all non-cash consideration) shall be determined in good faith by
the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary (which determination, if the sale price exceeds $25.0 million, is evidenced by a resolution of the Company’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s Board of Directors) as at the time of such Asset Sale;

 (3) at least 75% of the consideration from such Asset Sale received by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the
case may be, is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents; and 
 (4) an amount equal to 100% of the Net Available Cash from
such Asset Sale is applied by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary within 366 days from the date of receipt of such Net Available Cash (the “Asset Sale Proceeds Application Period”), as follows: 

  
 -64- 








 (a) to repay, prepay, defease, redeem, purchase or otherwise retire (and to
permanently reduce commitments with respect thereto in the case of revolving borrowings): (x) Indebtedness or other obligations under the Senior Credit Facilities; (y) Indebtedness of the Company (other than any Disqualified Stock or
Subordinated Obligations) or a Subsidiary Guarantor that is secured by a Lien (other than Indebtedness owed to an Affiliate of the Company); or (z) Indebtedness of a Non-Guarantor Restricted Subsidiary (other than Disqualified Stock and
Indebtedness owed to the Company or an Affiliate of the Company); 
 (b) to permanently reduce obligations under any
other Indebtedness of the Company (other than any Disqualified Stock or Subordinated Obligations) or Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary (other than any Disqualified Stock or Guarantor Subordinated Obligations) (in each case other than
Indebtedness owed to the Company or an Affiliate of the Company); provided that the Company shall on a pro rata basis reduce (or offer to reduce) obligations, under the Notes as provided under Section 3.07, through open market purchases
(to the extent such purchases are at or above 100% of the principal amount thereof) or by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth below for an Asset Sale Offer) to all Holders to purchase their Notes at 100% of the principal
amount thereof, plus the amount of accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on the amount of Notes that would otherwise be prepaid; and/or 

(c) to invest in, purchase or otherwise acquire Additional Assets, or to make payments (including without limitation
prepayments and progress payments) in connection with such investment, purchase or other acquisition; 
 provided that in the case of clause (c), a
binding commitment shall be treated as a permitted application of the Net Available Cash from the date of such commitment so long as the Company or such other Restricted Subsidiary enters into such commitment prior to the expiration of the Asset
Proceeds Application Period with the good faith expectation that such Net Available Cash will be applied to satisfy such commitment no later than 180 days after the expiration of the Asset Proceeds Application Period (an “Acceptable
Commitment”), it being understood that if an Acceptable Commitment is later cancelled or terminated for any reason before such Net Available Cash is applied, or such Net Available Cash is not applied within such period, then all such Net
Available Cash not so applied shall constitute Excess Proceeds. 
 (b) For the purposes of clause (3) of Section 4.10(a) and for no
other purpose, the following shall be deemed to be cash: 
 (1) any liabilities (as shown on the Company’s or such
Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet) of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantees) that are assumed by the transferee of any
such Capital Stock, property or assets and from which the Company and all Restricted Subsidiaries have been validly released from further liability therefor; 

(2) any securities, notes or other obligations received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary from the transferee that
are converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash (to the extent of the cash received in such conversion) within 180 days following the closing of such Asset Sale; and 

(3) any Designated Noncash Consideration received by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in such Asset Sale
having an aggregate fair market value (as determined in good faith by an Officer of the Company (as evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate)), taken together with all other Designated Noncash Consideration received pursuant to this clause
(3) that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed the greater of (x) $110.0 million and (y) 1.75% of Total Assets at the time of the receipt of such Designated Noncash Consideration (with the fair market value of each item of
Designated Noncash Consideration being measured at the time received without giving effect to subsequent changes in value). 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the 75% limitation referred to in clause (3) of Section 4.10(a) shall be deemed satisfied with respect
to any Asset Sale in which the cash or Cash Equivalents portion of the consideration received therefrom, determined in accordance with the foregoing provision on an after-tax basis, was less than 75%, if the proceeds before tax would have complied
with the aforementioned 75% limitation. 

  
 -65- 








 (c) Any Net Available Cash from Asset Sales that is not applied (it being understood that an
offer in respect of the Notes referred to in clause (b) of Section 4.10(a)(4) above shall be deemed an application up to the amount of the offer so long as the Company repurchased any Notes tendered in such offer) or invested as provided
in clause (4) of Section 4.10(a) shall be deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds.” On the 367th day after the date of receipt of such Net Available Cash (or such later date upon which an applicable Acceptable Commitment is
canceled or terminates or the applicable 180-day period with respect to an applicable Acceptable Commitment expires without full application of such Net Available Cash), if the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $25.0 million, the Company
shall be required to make an offer (“Asset Sale Offer”) to all Holders of Notes and to the extent required by the terms of other Pari Passu Indebtedness, to all holders of other Pari Passu Indebtedness outstanding with similar
provisions requiring the Company to make an offer to purchase such Pari Passu Indebtedness with the proceeds from any Asset Sale, to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes and any such Pari Passu Indebtedness to which the Asset Sale Offer
applies that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds, at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase, in accordance
with the procedures set forth in this Indenture or the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness, as applicable, in each case in minimum denominations of $2,000 and larger integral multiples of $1,000. To the extent that the aggregate amount
of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness so properly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Company may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for any purpose not prohibited by this Indenture. If the
aggregate principal amount of Notes surrendered by Holders thereof and other Pari Passu Indebtedness surrendered by holders or lenders, collectively, exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, subject to DTC procedures the Trustee shall select the Notes
subject to the applicable DTC procedures, and the trustee or agent for the Pari Passu Indebtedness shall select the Pari Passu Indebtedness, to be purchased on a pro rata basis on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of tendered Notes and
Pari Passu Indebtedness. Upon completion of such Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero. 
 The Asset Sale
Offer shall remain open for a period of at least 20 Business Days following its commencement, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the “Asset Sale Offer Period”). No later than five Business Days
after the termination of the Asset Sale Offer Period (the “Asset Sale Purchase Date”), the Company shall purchase the principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness required to be purchased pursuant to this Section 4.10
(the “Asset Sale Offer Amount”) or, if less than the Asset Sale Offer Amount has been so validly tendered, all Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness validly tendered in response to the Asset Sale Offer. 

If the Asset Sale Purchase Date is on or after a Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid
interest 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. 

Pending the final application of any Net Available Cash pursuant to this Section 4.10, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries may
temporarily apply such Net Available Cash to reduce Indebtedness or otherwise invest or use such Net Available Cash in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture. 

(d) On or before the Asset Sale Purchase Date, the Company shall, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a pro rata basis to the extent
necessary, the Asset Sale Offer Amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness or portions of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer, or if less than the Asset Sale Offer Amount
has been validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, all Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, in each case in integral multiples of $1,000. The Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’
Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Company in accordance with the terms of this Section 4.10 and, in addition, the Company shall deliver all certificates and notes required, if any, by the
agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness. The Company, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, shall promptly (but in any case not later than five Business Days after termination of the Asset Sale Offer Period) mail or
deliver to each tendering Holder of Notes an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes so validly tendered and 

  
 -66- 








 
not properly withdrawn by such Holder and accepted by the Company for purchase, and the Company shall promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee, upon delivery of an Officers’
Certificate from the Company, shall authenticate and mail or deliver by book entry such new Note to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered; provided that each such new Note shall be in a
principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. In addition, the Company shall take any and all other actions required by the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness. Any Note not so accepted shall be
promptly mailed or delivered by book entry by the Company to the Holder thereof. The Company shall publicly announce the results of the Asset Sale Offer on the Asset Sale Purchase Date. 

The Company shall comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or
regulations in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with provisions of this Section 4.10, the Company shall comply with the
applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Indenture 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 or conduct any
transaction (including the purchase, sale, lease or exchange of any property or the rendering of any service) with any Affiliate of the Company (an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving payments or consideration in excess of $5.0
million unless: 
 (1) the terms of such Affiliate Transaction are not materially less favorable to the Company or
such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, when taken as a whole, than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction at the time of such transaction on an arm’s-length basis with a Person who is not an Affiliate; and 

(2) in the event such Affiliate Transaction involves an aggregate consideration in excess of $25.0 million, the terms of such
transaction have been approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of the Company and the Board of the Directors of the Company shall have determined in good faith that such Affiliate Transaction satisfies the
criteria in clause (1) above. 
 (b) Section 4.11(a) shall not apply to: 

(1) any transaction between or among the Company and one or more Restricted Subsidiaries or between or among any Restricted
Subsidiaries and any Guarantees issued by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary for the benefit of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, in accordance with Section 4.09;

the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practices, in an aggregate amount not in excess of $5.0 million outstanding at any time; 

(6) any agreement as in effect as of the Merger Consummation Date, as such agreement may be amended, modified, supplemented,
extended or renewed from time to time, so long as any such amendment, modification, supplement, extension or renewal, when taken as a whole, is not materially more disadvantageous to the Holders in the reasonable determination of an Officer of the
Company; 
 (7) any agreement between any Person and an Affiliate of such Person existing at the time such Person is
acquired by or merged or consolidated with or into the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, as such agreement may be amended, modified, supplemented, extended or renewed from time to time; provided that such agreement was not entered in
contemplation of such acquisition, merger or consolidation, and so long as any such amendment, modification, supplement, extension or renewal, when taken as a whole, is not materially more disadvantageous to the Holders, in the reasonable
determination of an Officer of the Company, than the applicable agreement as in effect on the date immediately prior to such amendment, modification, supplement, extension or renewal, as applicable; 

(8) transactions with customers, clients, suppliers, joint venture partners or purchasers or sellers of goods or
services, in each case in the ordinary course of the business of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries and otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture; provided that in the reasonable determination of an Officer of the
Company, such transactions are on terms that are not materially less favorable, when taken as a whole, to the Company or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Company or such
Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person; 
 (9) any issuance or sale of Capital Stock (other than Disqualified
Stock) to Affiliates of the Company and the granting of registration and other customary rights with respect thereto; 
 (10)
transactions in which the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary delivers to the Trustee a letter or opinion from an Independent Financial Advisor stating that such transaction is fair to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial

arm’s-length basis from a Person that is not an Affiliate; 
 (11) the Transactions and the payment of all fees and
expenses related to the Transactions, in each case as disclosed in the Offering Memorandum;

Cornerstone substantially consistent, taken as a whole, with past practice (including without limitation, the extension of lines of insurance coverage); 

(13) payments of principal, interest and premium by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary on any of its Indebtedness held by
an Affiliate if the terms of such Indebtedness are substantially as favorable to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary as the terms which could have been obtained at the time of the creation of such Indebtedness from a lender which was not an
Affiliate; and 
 (14) any transaction with a Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary) that is an Affiliate solely
because the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company holds an equity interest in or otherwise controls such Person. 

  
 -68- 








 Section 4.12 Limitation on Liens. 

(a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or incur any Lien
securing Indebtedness (other than Permitted Liens) upon any of its property or assets (including Capital Stock of Subsidiaries), or income or profits therefrom, or assign or convey any right to receive income therefrom, whether owned on the Merger
Consummation Date or acquired after that date, which Lien is securing any Indebtedness, unless contemporaneously with the Incurrence of such Liens: 

(1) in the case of Liens securing Subordinated Obligations or Guarantor Subordinated Obligations, the Notes and related
Subsidiary Guarantees are secured by a Lien on such property, assets or proceeds that is senior to such Liens; or 
 (2) in
all other cases, the Notes and related Subsidiary Guarantees are equally and ratably secured or are secured by a Lien on such property, assets or proceeds that is senior in priority to such Liens. 

(b) Any Lien created for the benefit of Holders of the Notes on any property or assets pursuant to this Section 4.12 shall be
automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release and discharge of each of the Liens on such property or assets described in clauses (1) and (2) above. 

Section 4.13 Corporate Existence.

(i) its corporate existence, in accordance with its organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to time) and (ii) the rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries; provided that the Company shall not be required to preserve any such right, license or franchise, if the Company in good faith shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business
of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole. 
 Section 4.14 Offer to Repurchase Upon
Change of Control. 
 (a) If a Change of Control occurs, unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem all of the Notes as
described under Section 3.07, each Holder shall have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or larger integral multiples of $1,000) of such Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101%
of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant
Interest Payment Date). 
 (b) Within 30 days following any Change of Control, unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem all of
the Notes as described under Section 3.07, the Company shall mail a notice (the “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder of the Notes (or with respect to Global Notes, to the extent permitted or required by applicable DTC
procedures or regulations, send electronically), with a copy to the Trustee, stating: 
 (1) that a Change of Control has
occurred and that such Holder has the right to require the Company to purchase such Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount of such Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase
(subject to the right of Holders on a Record Date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date) (the “Change of Control Payment”); 

(2) the repurchase date (which shall be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is sent) (the
“Change of Control Payment Date”); provided that if the Change of Control Offer is conditioned upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, such Change of Control Offer may be extended to the date of the occurrence of such
Change of Control even if later than such 60th day; and 

  
 -69- 








 (3) the procedures determined by the Company, consistent with this Indenture,
that a Holder must follow in order to have its Notes repurchased. 
 On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company shall, to the extent
lawful: 
 (1) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes (equal to $2,000 or larger integral multiples of $1,000)
properly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; 
 (2) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount
equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn; and 

(3) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes so accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating
the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Company. 
 The Paying Agent shall promptly mail
to each Holder of Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal
amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided that each such new Note shall be in a principal amount of $2,000 or larger integral multiples of $1,000. 

The notice, if mailed in a manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such
notice. If (a) the notice is mailed in a manner herein provided and (b) any Holder fails to receive such notice or a Holder receives such notice but it is defective, such Holder’s failure to receive such notice or such defect shall
not affect the validity of the proceedings for the purchase of the Notes as to all other Holders that properly received such notice without defect. 

If the Change of Control Payment Date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related interest payment date, any accrued
and unpaid interest, if any, will be paid on the relevant interest payment date to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no Additional Interest will be payable to holders who tender pursuant
to the Change of Control Offer. 
 (c) The Company shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon 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 Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and purchases all Notes properly
tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer. 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 the making of the Change of Control Offer. 
 (d) The Company shall comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Rule
14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to the Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with
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 described in this Indenture by virtue of such compliance. 

Section 4.15 Future Subsidiary Guarantors. 

(a) The Company shall cause any Domestic Wholly Owned Subsidiary that borrows under or guarantees the Senior Credit Facilities after the Merger
Consummation Date to execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture, the form of which is attached as Exhibit C hereto, pursuant to which such Domestic Wholly Owned Subsidiary will unconditionally Guarantee, on a joint and
several basis, the full and prompt payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest, if any) in respect of the Notes on a senior basis and all other obligations under this Indenture. 

  
 -70- 








 (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Subsidiary Guarantee shall provide by its terms that it
shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged under the circumstances described in Section 10.06. 

Section 4.16 [Reserved] 

Section 4.17 Suspension of Covenants. 

(a) Following the first day (the “Suspension Date”) that: 

(1) the Notes have an Investment Grade Rating from both of the Rating Agencies; and 

(2) no Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture; 

the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be subject to Sections 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11 and clause (4) of Section 5.01(a)
(collectively, the “Suspended Covenants”). If at any time following a Suspension Date the Notes’ credit rating is downgraded from an Investment Grade Rating by either Rating Agency or if a Default or Event of Default occurs and
is continuing (such date, the “Reinstatement Date”), then the Suspended Covenants shall thereafter be reinstated as if such covenants had never been suspended and be applicable pursuant to the terms of this Indenture (including in
connection with performing any calculation or assessment to determine compliance with the terms of this Indenture), unless and until a subsequent Suspension Date occurs (in which event the Suspended Covenants shall no longer be in effect until a
subsequent Reinstatement Date occurs). 
 (b) Notwithstanding the reinstatement of the Suspended Covenants upon a Reinstatement Date, no
Default, Event of Default or breach of any kind shall be deemed to exist under this Indenture, the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantees with respect to the Suspended Covenants based upon, and none of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall bear
any liability for, any actions taken or events occurring during the Suspension Period (as defined below), or any actions taken at any time pursuant to any contractual obligation arising prior to the Reinstatement Date, regardless of whether such
actions or events would have been permitted if the applicable Suspended Covenants remained in effect during such period. The period of time between Suspension Date and the Reinstatement Date is referred to as the “Suspension
Period.” 
 (c) On each Reinstatement Date, all Indebtedness Incurred during the applicable Suspension Period shall be classified to
have been Incurred pursuant to Section 4.09(a) or one of the clauses set forth in Section 4.09(b) (to the extent such Indebtedness would be permitted to be Incurred thereunder as of such Reinstatement Date and after giving effect to
Indebtedness Incurred prior to the Suspension Period and outstanding on the Reinstatement Date). To the extent such Indebtedness would not be so permitted to be Incurred pursuant Section 4.09(a) or Section 4.09(b), such Indebtedness shall
be deemed to have been outstanding on the Merger Consummation Date, so that it is classified as permitted under clause (3) of Section 4.09(b). Calculations made after each Reinstatement Date of the amount available to be made as Restricted
Payments under Section 4.07 shall be made as though Section 4.07 had been in effect since the Issue Date and throughout any and all Suspension Periods. Accordingly, Restricted Payments made during a Suspension Period shall reduce the
amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under Section 4.07(a) to the extent required by Section 4.07. For purposes of determining compliance with Section 4.10, on the Reinstatement Date, the Net Available Cash from all
Asset Sales not applied in accordance with such section shall be deemed reset at zero. The Company shall provide written notice to the Trustee of the occurrence of any Suspension Date or Reinstatement Date. The Trustee shall have no obligation to
independently determine or verify if such events have occurred or notify the holders of the continuance and termination of any Suspension Period. The Trustee may provide a copy of such notice to any holder of Notes upon request. 

(d) During any period when the Suspended Covenants are suspended, the Company shall not designate any of the Company’s Subsidiaries as
Unrestricted Subsidiaries pursuant to this Indenture unless such designation would have been allowed if the Suspended Covenants had been in effect at the time of such designation and throughout such period and applied to all activities of the
Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries throughout such period.

 Section 4.18 Activities of the Escrow Issuer Prior to Consummation of the
Acquisition. 
 (a) Prior to the Merger Consummation Date, the Escrow Issuer’s primary activities shall be restricted to issuing the
Notes, the 2023 Notes and any additional notes to the extent permitted by this Indenture, issuing capital stock to, and receiving capital contributions from, Kindred, performing its obligations in respect of the Notes, the 2023 Notes and any
additional notes under this Indenture or the 2023 Notes Indenture, the Escrow Agreement and the escrow agreement with respect to the 2023 Notes, consummating the Transactions, effecting the release of the Escrowed Property and the escrowed property
with respect to the 2023 Notes, and redeeming the Notes, the 2023 Notes and any such additional notes, if applicable, and conducting such other activities as are necessary or appropriate to carry out the activities described above. Prior to the
Merger Consummation Date, the Escrow Issuer shall not own, hold or otherwise have any interest in any assets other than the Escrow Account, the escrow account with respect to the 2023 Notes, cash and Cash Equivalents. 

(b) Prior to the Merger Consummation Date, the Escrow Issuer and its Subsidiaries, if any, shall not engage in any business activity or enter
into any transaction or agreement (including, without limitation, making any restricted payment, incurring any debt, incurring any Liens except in favor of the Holders of the Notes, entering into any merger, consolidation or sale of all or
substantially all of its assets or engaging in any transaction with its Affiliates) except as is necessary to effectuate the Transactions substantially in accordance with the description of the Transactions set forth in the Offering Memorandum,
together with such amendments, modifications and waivers that are not, individually or in the aggregate, materially adverse to the Holders of the Notes. 

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, and except as set forth in this Section 4.18, the provisions of this Article 4 shall
only apply to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries on and after the Merger Consummation Date.

premium, if any, on such Indebtedness (“payment default”); or 
 (ii) results in the acceleration of such
Indebtedness prior to its maturity; 
 and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount
of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a payment default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $200.0 million or more; 

(7) the Company or a Significant Subsidiary or group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together (as of the latest audited

relating to insolvency; 
 (8) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that:

 -75- 








 (ii) appoints a Bankruptcy Custodian of the Company, any Significant Subsidiary
or a group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together (as of the latest audited financial statements for the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, for substantially all of its property; or 

(iii) orders the winding up or liquidation of the Company, any Significant Subsidiary or a group of Restricted Subsidiaries
that, taken together (as of the latest audited financial statements for the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary; 

or any similar relief is granted under any foreign laws and the order, decree or relief remains unstayed and in effect for 60 days; 

(9) failure by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary or group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together (as of the

null and void in a judicial proceeding or any Subsidiary Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary or group of Subsidiary Guarantors that taken together as of the latest audited consolidated financial statements of the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries would constitute a Significant Subsidiary denies or disaffirms its obligations under this Indenture or its Subsidiary Guarantee. 

(b) A Default under clauses (4) and (5) above shall not constitute an Event of Default until the Trustee or the Holders of 25% in
aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (with a copy to the Trustee) provide written notice to the Company of the Default and the Company does not cure such default within the time specified in clauses (4) and (5) above
after receipt of such notice. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the election of the Company, the sole remedy for an Event of Default
relating to the failure to comply with Section 4.03 shall, for the first 60 days after the occurrence of such an Event of Default, consist exclusively of the right to receive additional interest on the Notes at an annual rate equal to 0.25% of
the principal amount of the Notes. If the Company so elects, such additional interest shall accrue on all outstanding Notes from and including the date on which the Event of Default relating to the failure to comply with the reporting obligations in
this Indenture first occurs to but not including the earlier of (a) the 60th day thereafter or (b) the date on which such Event of Default is cured or waived by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes. On
such 60th day (or earlier, if the Event of Default relating to the reporting obligations under this Indenture is cured or waived by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes prior to such 60th day), such additional
interest shall cease to accrue and, if the Event of Default relating to reporting obligations has not been cured or waived prior to such 60th day, the Notes shall be subject to acceleration as provided in Section 6.02. The provisions of this
Indenture described in this Section 6.01(c) shall not affect the rights of Holders of Notes in the event of the occurrence of any other Event of Default. In the event the Company does not elect to pay the additional interest upon an Event of
Default in accordance with this Section 6.01(c), the Notes shall be subject to acceleration as provided in Section 6.02. 
 In
order to elect to pay the additional interest on the Notes as the sole remedy during the first 60 days after the occurrence of an Event of Default relating to the failure to comply with Section 4.03 in accordance with Section 6.01(c), the
Company shall notify all Holders of Notes and the Trustee and Paying Agent of such election on or before the close of business on the date on which such Event of Default first occurs. The Company may make such an election with respect to the Notes.


  
 -76- 








 Section 6.02 Acceleration. 

(a) If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in Section 6.01(a)(7) or (8) with respect to the Company) occurs
and is continuing, the Trustee by notice in writing specifying the Event of Default and that it is a “notice” to the Company, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice to the
Company and the Trustee, may declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal, premium and accrued and unpaid interest shall be due
and payable immediately. 
 (b) In the event of a declaration of acceleration of the Notes because an Event of Default described in clause
(6) under Section 6.01(a) has occurred and is continuing, the declaration of acceleration of the Notes shall be automatically annulled if the default triggering such Event of Default pursuant to clause (6) of Section 6.01(a)
shall be remedied or cured by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary or waived by the Holders of the relevant Indebtedness within 20 days after the declaration of acceleration with respect thereto and if (1) the annulment of the acceleration of
the Notes would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and (2) all existing Events of Default, except nonpayment of principal, premium or interest on the Notes that became due solely because of the
acceleration of the Notes, have been cured or waived, and all amounts owing to the Trustee have been paid. 
 (c) If an Event of Default
described in Section 6.01(a)(7) or (8) occurs and is continuing with respect to the Company, the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on all the Notes shall become and be immediately due and payable without any
declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders. 
 (d) At the request of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of
the Notes then outstanding following any declaration of the acceleration of the Notes pursuant to this Section 6.02 that has not been rescinded, the Trustee may deliver an Enforcement Notice to the Escrow Agent requesting the release the funds
in the Escrow Account to the Trustee pursuant to Section 5(b) of the Escrow Agreement, whereby such funds will be applied to consummate the Special Mandatory Redemption in accordance with Section 3.10. 

Section 6.03 Other Remedies. 

Subject to Section 6.01(c), 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, Additional Interest, 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. 

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may waive all past defaults (except with respect to a
continuing Default or Event of Default with respect to nonpayment of principal, premium or interest on the Notes) and rescind any such acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences if (1) rescission would not conflict with any
judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and (2) all existing Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes that have become due solely by such declaration of
acceleration, have been cured or waived and all amounts owing to the Trustee under this Indenture have been paid. 
 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. 

  
 -77- 








 Section 6.05 Control by Majority. 

Subject to the express terms of this Indenture, including, without limitation, Sections 7.02(f), 7.02(k) and 7.07, the Holders of a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes are given the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the
Trustee. The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an
affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not any such directions are unduly prejudicial) or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability; provided, however, that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the
Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction. Prior to taking any action under this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification from the Holders satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses and expenses
caused by taking or not taking such action. 
 Section 6.06 Limitation on Suits. 

Subject to Section 6.07, 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% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes have requested the Trustee, by notice
in writing, to pursue the remedy; 
 (3) such Holders have offered the Trustee satisfactory security or indemnity against any
loss, liability or expense; 
 (4) the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt of the
request and the offer of security or indemnity; and 
 (5) the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
then outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction that, in the opinion of the Trustee, is inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period. 

A Holder of a Note may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder of a Note or to obtain a preference or priority over
another Holder of a Note. 
 Section 6.07 Rights of Holders of Notes to Receive Payment. 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Note to receive payment of principal of, premium, if any,
and Additional Interest, 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 or a Change of Control Offer), or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such
payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder. 

Section 6.08 Collection Suit by Trustee. 

If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(1) or (2) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment
in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors for the whole amount of principal of, premium, if any, and Additional Interest, 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. 

  
 -78- 








 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 Company, 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, and
except as set forth in Section 6.01(c), no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by
law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the
concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 
 Section 6.11 Delay or Omission Not
Waiver. 
 No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Note to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of
Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time,
and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be. 
 Section 6.12
Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 
 The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be
necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial
proceedings relative to the Company (or any other obligor upon the Notes including the Subsidiary Guarantors), their creditors or their property and shall be entitled and empowered to vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar
official and participate as a member in any official committee of creditors appointed in such matter and to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any custodian in any such judicial
proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be
paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing
herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or 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. 

  
 -79- 








 Section 6.13 Priorities. 

After an Event of Default any moneys or properties distributable in respect of the Company’s or any Subsidiary Guarantor’s
obligations under this Indenture, or any money or property collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article 6, shall be paid out or distributed in the following order: 

(i) to the Trustee, its agents and attorneys for amounts due under Section 7.07, including payment of all compensation,
expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and the costs and expenses of collection; 
 (ii) to
Holders of Notes for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for principal, premium, if any, and Additional Interest, if any, and interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for

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 the Company, a suit by a
Holder of a Note pursuant to Section 6.07, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes. 

ARTICLE 7 
 TRUSTEE 

Section 7.01 Duties of Trustee. 

(a) In the case of an Event of Default known to the Trustee to have occurred and be continuing, 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. 

(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 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). 

  
 -80- 








 (c) The Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own negligent action, its own
negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that: 
 (i) this Section 7.01(c) does not limit the
effect of Section 7.01(b); 
 (ii) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a
Trust Officer, unless it is proved in a court of competent jurisdiction that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and 

(iii) 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.

Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to clauses (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 7.01. 
 (e) No
provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds
for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk is not reasonably assured to it. 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 to the Trustee indemnity or security satisfactory to it 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 Company. Money
and other property held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

(a) The Trustee may conclusively rely upon any document (whether in its original or facsimile form) believed by it to be genuine and to have
been signed or presented by the proper Person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see
fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled, upon reasonable notice to the Company and during normal business hours, to examine the books, records and premises of the Company,
personally or by agent or attorney and shall incur no liability or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation. Any permissive right or authority granted to the Trustee shall not be construed as a mandatory duty. 

(b) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officers’ Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both subject to
the other provisions of this Indenture. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such Officers’ Certificate or Opinion of Counsel. The Trustee may consult with counsel of its
selection and the advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon.
Whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically
prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith or willful misconduct on its part, conclusively rely upon an Officers’ Certificate. 
 (c)
The Trustee may act through its attorneys and agents and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent or attorney appointed with due care. 

(d) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith that it believes to be authorized or within the
rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture.

direction or notice from the Company shall be sufficient if signed by an Officer of the Company. The Trustee shall have no duty to inquire as to the performance of, or otherwise monitor compliance with, the Company’s or any Subsidiary
Guarantor’s covenants herein. 

  
 -81- 








 (f) None of the provisions of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own
funds or otherwise to incur any liability, financial or otherwise, in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or
indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not assured to it. 
 (g) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of
any Default or Event of Default unless a Trust Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice only from the Company or from the Holders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes of any event which
is in fact such a Default or Event of Default is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references the existence of a Default or Event of Default, the Notes and this Indenture. 

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

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

(j) In the event the Company is required to pay Additional Interest, the Company will provide written notice to the Trustee of the
Company’s obligation to pay Additional Interest no later than 15 days prior to the next Interest Payment Date, which notice shall set forth the accrual period and the amount of the Additional Interest to be paid by the Company in reasonable
detail. The Trustee shall not at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holders to determine whether the Additional Interest is payable and the amount thereof. The Trustee may provide a copy of such notice received from the Company
relating to Additional Interest to any Holder upon request. 
 (k) The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of
the performance of its powers or duties. 
 (l) The Trustee may request that the Company deliver an Officers’ Certificate setting forth
the names of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture, which Officers’ Certificate may be signed by any person authorized to sign an Officers’ Certificate, including
any Person specified as so authorized in any such certificate previously delivered and not superseded. 
 (m) The permissive rights of the
Trustee enumerated herein shall not be construed as duties. 
 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 Company or any
Affiliate of the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest as defined by Trust Indenture Act Section 310(b) it must eliminate such conflict within
90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as trustee or resign. Any Agent may do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee is also subject to Sections 7.10 and 7.11. 

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 or the
Subsidiary Guarantees; it shall not be accountable for the Company’s use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Company or upon the Company’s direction under any provision of this Indenture; it shall not be responsible for

 -82- 








 
other than the Trustee; and it shall not be responsible for any statement or recital herein or any statement in the Notes, the Offering Memorandum or any other document in connection with the
sale of the Notes or pursuant to this Indenture other than its certificate of authentication. Under no circumstances shall the Trustee be liable in its individual capacity for the obligations evidenced by the Notes. 

Section 7.05 Notice of Defaults. 

If a Default occurs and is continuing and is known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder notice of the Default within 90 days
after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default in the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note, the Trustee may withhold notice if and so long as a committee of Trust Officers of the Trustee in good faith determines that
withholding notice is in the interests of the Holders. 
 Section 7.06 Reports by Trustee to Holders of the
Notes. 
 Within 60 days after each December 15, beginning with December 15, 2015, and for so long as Notes remain outstanding,
the Trustee shall mail to the Holders of the Notes a brief report dated as of such reporting date that complies with Trust Indenture Act Section 313(a) (but if no event described in Trust Indenture Act Section 313(a) has occurred within
the twelve months preceding the reporting date, no report need be transmitted). The Trustee also shall comply with Trust Indenture Act Section 313(b)(2). The Trustee shall also transmit by mail all reports as required by Trust Indenture Act
Section 313(c). 
 A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to the Holders of Notes shall be mailed to the Company 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 Company shall promptly notify the Trustee when the Notes are listed on any stock exchange. 

Section 7.07 Compensation and Indemnity. 

The Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall pay to the financial institution acting as Trustee from time to time
such reasonable compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder as the parties shall agree in writing from time to time. Such compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The
Company shall reimburse the financial institution acting as Trustee promptly upon request for all reasonable out of pocket disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses
shall include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel. 
 The Company and the
Subsidiary Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall indemnify the financial institution acting as Trustee for, and hold it harmless against, any and all loss, damage, claims, liability or expense (including the reasonable fees and expenses of its
agents and counsel) 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 or any of the
Subsidiary Guarantors (including this Section 7.07) or defending itself against any claim whether asserted by any Holder, the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor, or liability in connection with the acceptance, exercise or performance of any of
its powers or duties hereunder). The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder. The Company
shall defend the claim and the Trustee may have separate counsel and the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary Guarantor shall be required to
reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, damage, claim, liability or expense incurred by the Trustee through the Trustee’s own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary Guarantor shall be
required to indemnify the Trustee with respect to any settlement made without the consent of the Company, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. 

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

  
 -83- 








 To secure the payment obligations of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors in this
Section 7.07, the financial institution acting as Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal and interest on particular Notes. Such Lien
shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 
 When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of
Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(7) or Section 6.01(a)(8) 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. 
 “Trustee” for the purposes of this Section 7.07 shall include any predecessor Trustee and the Trustee
in each of its capacities hereunder and each agent, custodian and other person employed to act hereunder; provided, however, that the negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of any Trustee hereunder shall not affect the rights of
any other Trustee hereunder. 
 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 Company. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then
outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Company in writing. The Company may remove the Trustee if: 

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

(b) the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for relief is entered with respect to the Trustee under any
Bankruptcy Law; 
 (c) a custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or 

(d) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting. 

If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Company 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 Company. 

If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee (at the
Company’s expense), the Company or the Holders of at least 10% 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,
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 Company. Thereupon, the
resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to
Holders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee; provided all sums owing to the Trustee hereunder have been paid and subject to the Lien provided for in Section 7.07.
Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08, the Company’s obligations under Section 7.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

 Section 7.09 Successor Trustee by Merger, Etc. 

If the Trustee consolidates with or merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another
corporation, the successor corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee. 
 Section 7.10
Eligibility; Disqualification. 
 There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation organized and doing business
under the laws of the United States of America or of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities and that has a combined
capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. 
 This Indenture shall
always have a Trustee who satisfies the requirements of Trust Indenture Act Sections 310(a)(1), (2) and (5). The Trustee is subject to Trust Indenture Act Section 310(b). There shall be excluded from the operation of Trust Indenture
Act Section 310(b)(i) the Notes under this Indenture or any indenture or indentures under which other securities or certificates of interest or participation in other securities of the Company or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors are outstanding
if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in Trust Indenture Act Section 310(b)(i) are met. 
 Section 7.11
Preferential Collection of Claims Against the Company. 
 The Trustee is subject to Trust Indenture Act Section 311(a), excluding
any creditor relationship listed in Trust Indenture Act Section 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to Trust Indenture Act Section 311(a) to the extent indicated therein. 

Section 7.12 Escrow Agreement. 

Each Holder, by its acceptance of a Note, consents and agrees to the terms of the Escrow Agreement, including related documents thereto, as the
same may be in effect or may be amended from time to time in writing by the parties thereto (provided that no amendment that would materially adversely affect the rights of the Holders may be effected without the consent of each Holder of Notes
affected thereby), and authorizes and directs the Trustee to enter into the Escrow Agreement and to perform its obligations and exercise its rights thereunder in accordance therewith. The Company shall do or cause to be done all such acts and things
as may be necessary, or as may be required by the provisions of the Escrow Agreement, to maintain the security interest created by the Escrow Agreement as a perfected first-priority security interest in favor of the Trustee, for its benefit and the
ratable benefit of the Holders as security for the obligations of the Company under this Indenture and the Notes. 
 ARTICLE 8 

LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE 

Section 8.01 Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 

The Company may, at its option and at any time, elect to have either Section 8.02 or 8.03 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 Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, the Company and the Subsidiary
Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes and Subsidiary Guarantees on the date the conditions set
forth below are satisfied (“Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Company 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 

  
 -85- 








 
Section 8.05 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in (a) and (b) below, and to have satisfied all of its other obligations under such Notes, the Subsidiary
Guarantees and this Indenture including that of the Subsidiary Guarantors (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall
survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: 
 (a) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive
payments in respect of the principal of, or interest or premium, if any, and Additional Interest, if any, on such Notes when such payments are due from the trust referred to in Section 8.04; 

(b) the Company’s obligations with respect to the Notes concerning issuing temporary Notes, registration of 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 hereunder, and the Company’s obligations in
connection therewith; and 
 (d) this Section 8.02. 

If the Company exercises the Legal Defeasance option, the Subsidiary Guarantees in effect at such time shall terminate. 

Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Company may exercise its option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise
of its option under Section 8.03. If the Company exercises its Legal Defeasance option, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default with respect to the Notes. 

Section 8.03 Covenant Defeasance. 

Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Company and the Subsidiary
Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, 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, 4.14, 4.15 and clauses
(3), (4) and (5) of Section 5.01(a) with respect to the outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 are satisfied (“Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes shall thereafter be
deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding”
for all other purposes hereunder. For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors 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, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the
Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, Sections 6.01(a)(4), 6.01(a)(6), 6.01(a)(7) (with respect only to
Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that taken together would constitute a Significant Subsidiary) or 6.01(a)(8) (with respect only to Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that taken together
would constitute a Significant Subsidiary) or because of the failure to comply with clauses (3), (4) or (5) of Section 5.01(a) or Section 5.01(b) 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 to the outstanding Notes: 

  
 -86- 








 In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance with respect to the Notes:

 (1) the Company must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, cash in
U.S. dollars, non-callable U.S. Government Obligations, or a combination of cash in U.S. dollars and non-callable U.S. Government Obligations, in amounts as shall be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal
firm or firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certificate delivered to the Trustee, to pay the principal of, or interest and premium and Additional Interest, if any, on the outstanding Notes on the Stated Maturity or on the
applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Company must specify whether the Notes are being defeased to maturity or to a particular redemption date; 

(2) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to
the Trustee confirming that (a) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (b) since the date of this Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law,
in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders of the respective outstanding Notes shall not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal
Defeasance and shall be subject to 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 Company has delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to
the Trustee confirming that the Holders of the respective outstanding Notes shall not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and shall be subject to federal income 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; 

(4) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under
any material agreement or instrument (excluding this Indenture) to which the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is bound; 

(5) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of
Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit and the grant of any Lien securing such borrowings); 

(6) the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Company
with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding creditors of the Company or others; and 
 (7) the Company
must deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel (which Opinion of Counsel may be subject to customary assumptions and exclusions), each stating that all conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the
Covenant Defeasance have been complied with. 
 Section 8.05 Deposited Money and U.S. Government Obligations to Be
Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. 
 Subject to Section 8.06, all money and U.S. Government Obligations (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 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 Company or a Subsidiary 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 and Additional Interest, if any, and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by
law. 

  
 -87- 








 The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on
or assessed against the cash or U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 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 Company from
time to time upon the request of the Company any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 8.04 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or 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)), 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 the Company. 

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

Section 8.07 Reinstatement. 

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any United States dollars or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with
Section 8.02 or 8.03, 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 Company’s obligations under this Indenture and
the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 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, as
the case may be; provided that, if the Company makes any payment of principal of, premium and Additional Interest, if any, or interest on any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company 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 

AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER 

Section 9.01 Without Consent of Holders of Notes. 

Notwithstanding Section 9.02, the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor (with respect to its Subsidiary Guarantee or this Indenture;
provided that any supplemental indenture pursuant to Section 4.15 need only be signed by the Company, the guaranteeing Subsidiary Guarantor and the Trustee) and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture, any Subsidiary Guarantee
or the Notes without the consent of any Holder to:  
 (1) cure any ambiguity, omission, defect, mistake or
inconsistency; 
 (2) provide for the assumption by a successor entity (or co-issuer) of the obligations of the Company or
any Subsidiary Guarantor under this Indenture (whether through merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of assets, properties or otherwise); 

(3) provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes (provided that the
uncertificated Notes are issued in registered form for purposes of Section 163(f) of the Code, or in a manner such that the uncertificated Notes are described in Section 163(f)(2)(B) of the Code); 

  
 -88- 








 (4) add Subsidiary Guarantees with respect to the Notes or release a Subsidiary
Guarantor from its obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee or this Indenture in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture; 

(5) secure the Notes; 

(6) add to the covenants of the Company for the benefit of the Holders or surrender any right or power conferred upon the
Company; 
 (7) make any change that does not materially adversely affect the rights of any Holder under this Indenture; 

(8) comply with any requirement of the SEC in connection with the qualification of this Indenture under the Trust Indenture
Act; 
 (9) provide for the appointment of a successor trustee; provided that the successor trustee is otherwise
qualified and eligible to act as such under the terms of this Indenture; 
 (10) provide for the issuance of Additional Notes
under this Indenture; 
 (11) comply with the provisions described under Section 4.15 or Article 10; 

(12) provide for the issuance of exchange securities which shall have terms substantially identical in all respects to the
Notes (except that the transfer restrictions contained in the Notes shall be modified or eliminated as appropriate and except as otherwise provided in Section 2.01(a) with respect to Additional Notes) and which shall be treated, together with
any outstanding Notes, as a single class of securities; or 
 (13) conform the text of this Indenture, the Notes or the
Subsidiary Guarantees to any provision of the “Description of Notes” section of the Offering Memorandum to the extent that such provision in such “Description of Notes” section was intended to be a verbatim recitation of a
provision of this Indenture, the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantees (as certified in an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee). 

After an amendment or supplement under this Indenture becomes effective, the Company is required to send to the Holders a notice briefly
describing such amendment or supplement. However, the failure to give such notice to all the Holders, or any defect in the notice, shall not impair or affect the validity of the amendment or supplement. 

Upon the request of the Company accompanied by a resolution of its Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or
supplemental indenture, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 12.04, the Trustee shall join with the Company and the Subsidiary 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 shall not be obligated to enter into such amended or supplemental indenture that affects its own
rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise. 
 Section 9.02 With Consent of Holders of
Notes. 
 Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors (as applicable) and the Trustee may
amend or supplement this Indenture, any Subsidiary Guarantee and the Notes 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, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes), and, subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07, any past Default or Event of Default (other than a Default or Event of Default
in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and Additional 

  
 -89- 








 
Interest, 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 Subsidiary
Guarantees or the Notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal aggregate amount of the then outstanding Notes (including Additional Notes, if any) voting as a single class (including consents obtained in connection
with the purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes). Section 2.10 and Section 2.11 shall determine which Notes are considered to be “outstanding” for the purposes of this Section 9.02. 

Upon the request of the Company accompanied by a resolution of its Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or
supplemental indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders of Notes as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 12.04, the Trustee
shall join with the Company in the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture unless such amended or supplemental indenture directly affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which
case the Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental indenture. 
 It shall not be
necessary for the consent of the Holders of Notes under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. A consent to any amendment,
supplement or waiver under this Indenture by any Holder of Notes given in connection with a tender of such Holder’s Notes shall not be rendered invalid by such tender. 

After an amendment or supplement under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Company shall mail to the Holders a notice briefly
describing such amendment or supplement; provided that the failure to give such notice to all the Holders, or any defect in the notice will not impair or affect the validity of the amendment or supplement. 

Without the consent of each adversely 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 amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment;

 (2) reduce the stated rate of interest or extend the stated interest payment date of the Notes; 

(3) reduce the principal of or extend the Stated Maturity of any Note; 

(4) waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, or interest or premium, if any, or Additional Interest,
if any, 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 then outstanding Notes with respect to a nonpayment default and a waiver of the payment default that
resulted from such acceleration); 
 (5) reduce the premium payable upon the redemption or repurchase of any Note or change
the time at which any Note may be redeemed or repurchased as described above under Section 3.07, Section 4.10 or Section 4.14 whether through an amendment or waiver of provisions in the covenants, definitions or otherwise (except
amendments to the definition of “Change of Control” or “Asset Sale”); 
 (6) change the Special Mandatory
Redemption Price, the Special Mandatory Redemption Date or the Final Outside Date; 
 (7) make any Note payable in money
other than that stated in the Note; 
 (8) otherwise impair the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of,
premium, if any, and interest on such Holder’s Notes on or after the due dates therefor or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Holder’s Notes; 

(9) make any change in the amendment provisions that require each Holder’s consent or in the waiver provisions; or 

  
 -90- 








 (10) modify the Subsidiary Guarantees in any manner materially adverse to the
Holders of the Notes. 
 Section 9.03 Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. 

Every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Notes shall be set forth in an amended or supplemental indenture that complies with the
Trust Indenture Act as then in effect. 
 Section 9.04 Revocation and Effect of Consents. 

Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a
Note and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder of a
Note may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the waiver, supplement or amendment becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms
and thereafter binds every Holder. 
 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 Company 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 shall sign any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment or supplement does not
adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. The Company may not sign an amendment, supplement or waiver until its Board of Directors approves it. In executing any amendment, supplement or waiver, the Trustee shall
be entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 12.04, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of
such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that such amendment, supplement or waiver is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company and any Subsidiary Guarantors party thereto, enforceable
against them in accordance with its terms, subject to customary exceptions, and complies with the provisions hereof (including Section 9.03). 

ARTICLE 10 
 SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES

 Section 10.01 Subsidiary Guarantee. 

Subject to this Article 10, each of the Subsidiary Guarantors shall, jointly and severally, unconditionally guarantee, on a senior unsecured
basis, to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Company hereunder or
thereunder, that: (a) the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on or Additional Interest, if any, on the Notes shall be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the
overdue principal of and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other Obligations of the Company to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder shall be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof
and thereof; and (b) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that the same shall be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or
renewal, whether at 

  
 -91- 








 
Stated Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Subsidiary Guarantors shall be
jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection. 

The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or
enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, 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 Subsidiary Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in
the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that this Subsidiary Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete
performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture, except as provided in Section 10.06. 
 If any Holder or the
Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors, any amount paid either
to the Trustee or such Holder, this Subsidiary Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect. 

Each Subsidiary 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 Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Subsidiary Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand,
(x) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 for the purposes of this Subsidiary 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, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the
Subsidiary Guarantors for the purpose of this Subsidiary Guarantee. The Subsidiary Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Subsidiary Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the
Holders under the Subsidiary Guarantees. 
 Each Subsidiary Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective
should any petition be filed by or against the Company for liquidation, reorganization, should the Company 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 Company’s assets, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Notes are, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or
reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee on the Notes or Subsidiary 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 Subsidiary 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. 
 Each payment
to be made by a Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of its Subsidiary Guarantee shall be made without set-off, counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any kind or nature. 

Section 10.02 Limitation on Subsidiary Guarantor Liability. 

Each Subsidiary Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the
Subsidiary Guarantee of such Subsidiary 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 Subsidiary Guarantee. 

  
 -92- 








 To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Subsidiary Guarantors
hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee will be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of
such Subsidiary Guarantor (including, without limitation, any Guarantees under the Senior Credit Facility) 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 Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Subsidiary Guarantor under this Article 10, result in the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent
conveyance or fraudulent transfer under applicable law. Any Subsidiary Guarantor that makes a payment under its Subsidiary Guarantee will be entitled upon payment in full of all Guaranteed Obligations under this Indenture to a contribution from each
other Subsidiary Guarantor in an amount equal to such other Subsidiary Guarantor’s pro rata portion of such payment based upon the respective net assets of all the Subsidiary Guarantors at the time of such payment determined in accordance with
GAAP. 
 Section 10.03 Execution and Delivery. 

To evidence its Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01, each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that this Indenture or a
supplemental indenture shall be executed on behalf of such Subsidiary Guarantor by an Officer of such Subsidiary Guarantor. 
 Each
Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the absence of the endorsement of any notation of such Subsidiary Guarantee on the Notes. 

If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture or a supplemental indenture no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee
authenticates the Note, the Subsidiary Guarantee shall be valid nevertheless. 
 The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the
authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Subsidiary Guarantors.

by any Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of Section 10.01; provided that, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Subsidiary 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 Company under this Indenture or the Notes shall have been paid in full. 

Section 10.05 Benefits Acknowledged. 

Each Subsidiary Guarantor acknowledges that it will 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 Subsidiary Guarantee are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

A Subsidiary Guarantee by a Subsidiary Guarantor shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged, and no further action by
such Subsidiary Guarantor, the Company or the Trustee is required for the release of such Subsidiary Guarantor’s Subsidiary Guarantee, upon: 

(a) the occurrence of any sale, exchange, transfer or other disposition (by merger, consolidation, liquidation, dissolution or

property of such Subsidiary Guarantor (other than by lease), which sale, exchange, transfer or other disposition is made in compliance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture, including

such time) and Section 5.01; 
 (b) the release or discharge of such Subsidiary Guarantor from its Guarantee of
Indebtedness of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors under the Senior Credit Facilities (including by reason of the termination of the Senior Credit Facilities); provided that if such Subsidiary Guarantor has Incurred any Indebtedness or
issued any Preferred Stock or Disqualified Stock in reliance on its status as a Subsidiary Guarantor under Section 4.09, such Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations under such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, as the case
may be, so Incurred are satisfied in full or discharged or are otherwise permitted to be Incurred by a Non-Guarantor Restricted Subsidiary under Section 4.09; 

(c) the designation of any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Subsidiary Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance
with the provisions described in Section 4.07 and the definition of Unrestricted Subsidiary; or 
 (d) the Company
exercising its Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance option as described under Article 8 or the Company’s obligations under this Indenture being discharged in accordance with the terms of this Indenture. 

If the Subsidiary Guarantee of any Subsidiary Guarantor is deemed to be released or is automatically released, the Company shall deliver to
the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating the identity of the released Subsidiary Guarantor, the basis for release in reasonable detail, and that such release complies with this Indenture. At the request of the Company, and upon delivery to
the Trustee of an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that such release complies with this Indenture, the Trustee shall execute and deliver an appropriate instrument evidencing such release of a Subsidiary Guarantor from the
Subsidiary Guarantee (it being understood that the failure to obtain any such instrument shall not impair any automatic release pursuant to Section 10.06). 

ARTICLE 11 
 SATISFACTION AND
DISCHARGE 
 Section 11.01 Satisfaction and Discharge. 

This Indenture shall be discharged and shall cease to be of further effect as to all Notes, when: 

(1) either: 

(a) all Notes that have been authenticated, except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes that have been replaced pursuant to
Section 2.09 or paid and Notes for whose payment money has been deposited in trust and thereafter repaid to the Company, have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or 

(b) all Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable by reason of the making of
a notice of redemption or otherwise or will become due and payable within one year or may be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and
at the expense, of the Company, and the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee, as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, cash in U.S. dollars, U.S.
Government Obligations, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as shall be sufficient without consideration of any reinvestment of interest to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for
cancellation for principal, premium, if any, and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption; 

  
 -94- 








 (2) the deposit shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a
default under, any other material instrument to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound; 
 (3) the
Company has paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by it under this Indenture; and 
 (4) the Company has delivered
irrevocable instructions to the Trustee under this Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at maturity or the redemption date, as the case may be, then the Trustee shall acknowledge satisfaction and discharge of this
Indenture with respect to the Notes on demand of the Company (accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that all conditions precedent specified herein relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture
have been complied with) and at the cost and expense of the Company. 
 (5) if U.S. Government Obligations shall have been
deposited in connection with such satisfaction and discharge, then as a further condition to such satisfaction and discharge, the Trustee shall have received a certificate from a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of
independent accountants to the effect set forth in Section 8.04(1). 
 Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this
Indenture, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to clause (1)(b) of this Section 11.01, the provisions of Section 11.02 and Section 8.06 shall survive. 

Section 11.02 Application of Trust Money. 

Subject to the provisions of Section 8.06, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 11.01 shall be held in trust and
applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons
entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium and Additional Interest, if any) and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee; but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by
law. 
 If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 11.01 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 Company’s and any Subsidiary 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; provided that if the Company has made any payment of principal of, premium, if any, and Additional Interest, if
any, or interest on any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or
Paying Agent.

The Company

issuance; provided that the first Interest Payment Date shall be July 15, 2015. The Company 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 and Additional Interest, if any, (without regard to any
applicable grace periods) from time to time on demand at the interest rate on the Notes. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. 

2. METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Company will pay interest on the Notes and Additional Interest, if any, to the Persons who are Holders at the close
of business on January 1 and July 1 (whether or not a Business Day), as the case may be, next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such Record Date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except
as provided in Section 2.14 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. Principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes will be payable at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose or, at the option of
the Company, payment of interest and Additional Interest, if any, may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their respective 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, premium and Additional Interest, if any, on, all Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which shall have provided wire transfer instructions to the Company or the Paying

of the Merger Consummation Date]. The Company shall be entitled to issue Additional Notes pursuant to Sections 2.01 and 4.09 of the Indenture. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by

$2,000 or larger integral multiples of $1,000) of such Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase
(subject to the right of Holders on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date).

367th day after the date of receipt of such Net Available Cash (or such later date upon which an applicable Acceptable Commitment is canceled or terminates or the applicable 180-day period with respect to an applicable Acceptable Commitment expires

required by the terms of other Pari Passu Indebtedness, to all holders of other Pari Passu Indebtedness outstanding with similar provisions requiring the Company to make an offer to purchase such Pari Passu Indebtedness with the proceeds from any
Asset Sale, to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes and any such Pari Passu Indebtedness to which the Asset Sale Offer applies that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds, at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the
principal amount of the Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase, in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture or the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness, as applicable,

Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Company may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for any purpose not prohibited by the Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes surrendered by Holders thereof and other Pari Passu Indebtedness
surrendered by holders or lenders, collectively, exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes, and the trustee or agent for the Pari Passu Indebtedness shall select the Pari Passu Indebtedness, to be purchased on a pro
rata basis on the basis of the 

  
 A-8

extent that the aggregate amount of Notes and other Indebtedness tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the aggregate amount of unapplied Excess Proceeds, the Company may use any remaining amount for the general corporate purposes of
the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries. 
 Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to any Asset Sale Offer shall be required
to surrender the Note, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to the Note completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Company, the Depositary, if appointed by the Company, or a Paying Agent at the
address specified in the notice at least three days before the Asset Sale Purchase Date.

transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, the Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a
selection of Notes to be redeemed.

12. AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER. The Indenture, the Subsidiary Guarantees or the Notes may be amended or supplemented as provided in the
Indenture. 
 13. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES. 

(a) If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency) occurs and is continuing,

may declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal, premium and accrued and unpaid interest shall be due and payable immediately.

 (b) In the event of a declaration of acceleration of the Notes because an Event of Default arising from certain defaults under any
mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the
Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries), other than Indebtedness owed to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, whether such Indebtedness or Guarantee now exists or is created after the Issue Date, has occurred and is continuing, the
declaration of acceleration of the Notes shall be automatically annulled if the default triggering such Event of Default pursuant to such Event of Default shall be remedied or cured by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary or waived by the holders
of the relevant Indebtedness within 20 days after the declaration of acceleration with respect thereto and if (1) the annulment of the acceleration of the Notes would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction
and (2) all existing Events of Default, except nonpayment of principal, premium or interest on the Notes that became due solely because of the acceleration of the Notes, have been cured or waived. 

(c) If an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency occurs and is continuing, the principal of, premium, if any,
and accrued and unpaid interest on all the Notes shall become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders. 

(d) The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may waive all past defaults (except with respect to a
continuing Default or Event of Default with respect to nonpayment of principal, premium or interest on the Notes) and rescind any such acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences if (1) rescission would not conflict with any
judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and (2) all existing Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes that have become due solely by such declaration of
acceleration, have been cured or waived. 

  
 A-9 








 (d) If a Default occurs and is continuing and is known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail to
each Holder notice of the Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default in the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note, the Trustee may withhold notice if and so long as a committee of Trust
Officers of the Trustee in good faith determines that withholding notice is in the interests of the Holders. In addition, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, a certificate indicating whether
the signers thereof know of any Default that occurred during the previous year. 
 14. 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.

GOVERNING LAW. THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THE INDENTURE, THE NOTES AND THE GUARANTEES. 
 16. NO
PERSONAL LIABILITY. No director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors under this Note, the
Indenture or the Subsidiary Guarantees or for any claim based upon, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting this Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the
consideration for issuance of the Notes. 
 17. CUSIP NUMBERS. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security
Identification Procedures, the Company has 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.

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

1. INTEREST. Kindred Healthcare, Inc., a Delaware corporation, promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at 8.00% per
annum from [December 18, 2014]5 [ ]6 until maturity. The Company will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and
July 15 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an “Interest Payment Date”) with the same force and effect and no interest for the intervening period shall accrue.
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 July 15, 2015. The Company
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 Company will pay interest on the Notes to the Persons who
are Holders at the close of business on January 1 and July 1 (whether or not a Business Day), as the case may be, next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such Record Date and on or before such
Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.14 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. Principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes will be payable at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such
purpose or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their respective 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 on, all Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which shall have provided wire transfer instructions to the Company or the Paying Agent. Such payment shall be in such

Registrar. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to the Holders. The Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

original principal amount of Notes issued under the Indenture (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of Additional Notes) remains outstanding immediately after each such redemption; and 

(2) the redemption occurs within 120 days after the closing of each such Equity Offering. 

(d) [reserved.] 
 (e) Any
redemption pursuant to this paragraph 5 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.01 through 3.06 of the Indenture. 
 6.
[Reserved.] 
 7. MANDATORY REDEMPTION. The Company shall not be required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect
to the Notes. 
 8. NOTICE OF REDEMPTION. Subject to Section 3.09 of the Indenture, the Company shall mail or cause to be mailed by
first-class mail, postage prepaid, notices of redemption at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at such Holder’s registered address or


  
 B-6 








 
otherwise in accordance with the procedures of DTC, except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with Article 8
or Article 11 of the Indenture. Except as set forth in Section 3.07(g) and Section 4.14 of the Indenture, notices of redemption may not be conditional. Notes and portions of Notes selected shall be in amounts of $2,000 or whole multiples
of $1,000 on excess thereof; no Notes of $2,000 or less can be redeemed in part, except that if all of the Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed or purchased, the entire outstanding amount of Notes held by such Holder, even if not $2,000 or a
multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, shall be redeemed or purchased. Subject to Section 3.05 of the Indenture, on and after the redemption date, interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions of Notes called for redemption. Notice of any
redemption upon any Equity Offering may be given prior to the completion thereof, and any such redemption or notice may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of
the related Equity Offering. 
 9. OFFERS TO REPURCHASE. 

(a) If a Change of Control occurs, unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem all of the Notes as described under Section 3.07
of the Indenture, each Holder shall have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or larger integral multiples of $1,000) of such Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate
principal amount of the Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date). 

(b) On the 367th day after the date of receipt of such Net Available Cash (or such later date upon which an applicable Acceptable Commitment is
canceled or terminates or the applicable 180-day period with respect to an applicable Acceptable Commitment expires without full application of such Net Available Cash), if the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $25.0 million, the Company
shall be required to make an offer (an “Asset Sale Offer”) to all Holders of Notes and to the extent required by the terms of other Pari Passu Indebtedness, to all holders of other Pari Passu Indebtedness outstanding with similar
provisions requiring the Company to make an offer to purchase such Pari Passu Indebtedness with the proceeds from any Asset Sale, to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes and any such Pari Passu Indebtedness to which the Asset Sale Offer
applies that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds, at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase, in accordance
with the procedures set forth in the Indenture or the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness, as applicable, in each case in minimum denominations of $2,000 and larger integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. To the extent that the
aggregate amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness so properly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Company may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for any purpose not prohibited by the
Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes surrendered by Holders thereof and other Pari Passu Indebtedness surrendered by holders or lenders, collectively, exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes, and
the trustee or agent for the Pari Passu Indebtedness shall select the Pari Passu Indebtedness, to be purchased on a pro rata basis on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of tendered Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness. Upon completion of such
Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero. Accordingly, to the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes and other Indebtedness tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the aggregate amount of unapplied
Excess Proceeds, the Company may use any remaining amount for the general corporate purposes of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries. 

Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to any Asset Sale Offer shall be required to surrender the Note, with the form entitled
“Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to the Note completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Company, the Depositary, if appointed by the Company, or a Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice at least three
days before the Asset Sale Purchase Date. 
 10. DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in
denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to
furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents, and Holders shall be required to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note
selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, the Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed. 

  
 B-7 








 11. PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. A Holder may be treated as its owner for all purposes. 

12. AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER. The Indenture, the Subsidiary Guarantees or the Notes may be amended or supplemented as provided in the
Indenture. 
 13. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES. 

(a) If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency) occurs and is continuing,
the Trustee by notice in writing specifying the Event of Default and that it is a “notice” to the Company, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice to the Company and the Trustee,
may declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal, premium and accrued and unpaid interest shall be due and payable immediately.

 (b) In the event of a declaration of acceleration of the Notes because an Event of Default arising from certain defaults under any
mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the
Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries), other than Indebtedness owed to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, whether such Indebtedness or Guarantee now exists or is created after the Issue Date, has occurred and is continuing, the
declaration of acceleration of the Notes shall be automatically annulled if the default triggering such Event of Default pursuant to such Event of Default shall be remedied or cured by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary or waived by the holders
of the relevant Indebtedness within 20 days after the declaration of acceleration with respect thereto and if (1) the annulment of the acceleration of the Notes would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction
and (2) all existing Events of Default, except nonpayment of principal, premium or interest on the Notes that became due solely because of the acceleration of the Notes, have been cured or waived. 

(c) If an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency occurs and is continuing, the principal of, premium, if any,
and accrued and unpaid interest on all the Notes shall become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders. 

(d) The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may waive all past defaults (except with respect to a
continuing Default or Event of Default with respect to nonpayment of principal, premium or interest on the Notes) and rescind any such acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences if (1) rescission would not conflict with any
judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and (2) all existing Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes that have become due solely by such declaration of
acceleration, have been cured or waived. 
 (e) If a Default occurs and is continuing and is known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail to
each Holder notice of the Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default in the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note, the Trustee may withhold notice if and so long as a committee of Trust
Officers of the Trustee in good faith determines that withholding notice is in the interests of the Holders. In addition, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, a certificate indicating whether
the signers thereof know of any Default that occurred during the previous year. 
 14. 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. 
 15.
GOVERNING LAW. THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THE INDENTURE, THE NOTES AND THE GUARANTEES. 

  
 B-8 








 16. NO PERSONAL LIABILITY. No director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of the
Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors under this Note, the Indenture or the Subsidiary Guarantees or for any claim based upon, in respect of, or by
reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting this Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. 

17. CUSIP NUMBERS. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Company has
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 Company will furnish
to any Holder upon written request and without charge a copy of the Indenture. Requests may be made to the Company at the following address:

 EXHIBIT C 

FORM OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE 
 TO
BE DELIVERED BY SUBSEQUENT SUBSIDIARY GUARANTORS 
 Supplemental Indenture (this “Supplemental Indenture”), dated as
of             , among (the “New Subsidiary Guarantor”), a subsidiary of Kindred Healthcare, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), the
Company             and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”). 

W I T N E S S E T H: 
 WHEREAS,
each of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors (as defined in the Indenture referred to below) has heretofore executed and delivered to the Trustee an indenture dated as of December 18, 2014 (as amended or supplemented, the
“Indenture”), providing for the issuance of an unlimited aggregate principal amount of 8.00% Senior Notes due 2020 (the “Notes”); 

WHEREAS, the Indenture provides that under certain circumstances the New Subsidiary Guarantor shall execute and deliver to the Trustee a
supplemental indenture pursuant to which the New Subsidiary Guarantor shall unconditionally guarantee all of the Company’s Obligations under the Notes and the Indenture on the terms and conditions set forth herein and under the Indenture (the
“Subsidiary Guarantee”); and 
 WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Indenture, each of the Trustee and the
Company is authorized to execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture. 
 NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other
good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties mutually covenant and agree for the benefit of each other and the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes as follows: 

(1) Capitalized Terms. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. 

(2) Agreement to Subsidiary Guarantee. The New Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees as follows: 

(a) Along with all Subsidiary Guarantors named in the Indenture, subject to Article 10 of the Indenture, to jointly and
severally unconditionally guarantee, on a senior unsecured basis, to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of the
Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Company hereunder, that: 
 (i) the principal of, premium, if any, or interest
on or Additional Interest, if any, on the Notes shall be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all
other obligations of the Company to the Holders or the Trustee thereunder shall be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms thereof; and 

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

  
 C-1 








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

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

(d) This Subsidiary Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes,
the Indenture and this Supplemental Indenture, and the New Subsidiary Guarantor accepts all obligations of a Subsidiary Guarantor under the Indenture. 

(e) If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors
(including the New Subsidiary Guarantor), or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors, any amount paid either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Subsidiary
Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect. 
 (f) The New Subsidiary
Guarantor shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. 

(g) As between the New Subsidiary Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the
maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 of the Indenture for the purposes of this Subsidiary Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in
respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6 of the Indenture, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due
and payable by the New Subsidiary Guarantor for the purpose of this Subsidiary Guarantee. 
 (h) If the New Subsidiary
Guarantor makes a payment under its New Subsidiary Guarantee, the Subsidiary Guarantor will be entitled upon payment in full of all Guaranteed Obligations under the Indenture to a contribution from each other Subsidiary Guarantor in an amount equal
to such other Subsidiary Guarantor’s pro rata portion of such payment based on the respective net assets of all the Subsidiary Guarantors at the time of such payment determined in accordance with GAAP. 

(i) Pursuant to Section 10.02 of the Indenture, the obligations of the New Subsidiary Guarantor under this Subsidiary
Guarantee 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 Subsidiary Guarantor that are relevant under any applicable Bankruptcy Law or fraudulent
conveyance laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Subsidiary Guarantor under Article
10 of the Indenture, result in the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under this Subsidiary Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under applicable law. 

(j) This Subsidiary Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed
by or against the Company for liquidation, reorganization, should the Company 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 Company’s
assets, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Notes are, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must
otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee on the Notes and Subsidiary Guarantee, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent transfer” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the
event that any payment or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Note shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or
returned. 

  
 C-2 








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

(l) Each payment to be made by the New Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of this Subsidiary Guarantee shall be made without
set-off, counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any kind or nature. 
 (3) Execution and Delivery. The New Subsidiary Guarantor
agrees that the Subsidiary Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the absence of the endorsement of any notation of such Subsidiary Guarantee on the Notes. 

(4) Merger, Consolidation or Sale of All or Substantially All Assets. 

(a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 5.01(b) of the Indenture, the New Subsidiary Guarantor may not consolidate or merge with or
into or wind up into (whether or not the Company or the New Subsidiary Guarantor is the surviving corporation), or sell, assign, convey, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties or assets, in one or more related
transactions, to any Person (other than to the Company or another Subsidiary Guarantor) unless: 
 (x)(i) if such entity
remains a Subsidiary Guarantor, the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (the “Successor Guarantor”) will be a corporation, partnership, trust or limited liability company organized and existing under the laws of the United
States of America, any State of the United States, the District of Columbia or any other territory thereof; 
 (ii) the
Successor Guarantor, if other than such Subsidiary Guarantor, expressly assumes all the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under the Notes and the Indenture pursuant to a supplemental indenture or other documents or instruments in form
reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee; 
 (iii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and 
 (iv) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’
Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger or transfer and such supplemental indenture (if any) comply with the Indenture; or 

(y) the transaction is made in compliance with Section 4.10 of the Indenture (it being understood that only such portion
of the Net Available Cash as is required to be applied on the date of such transaction in accordance with the terms of the Indenture needs to be applied in accordance therewith at such time), or excluded from the definition of “Asset
Sale,” and, if applicable, Section 5.01 of the Indenture 
 (5) Releases. 

Subject to Section 10.06 of the Indenture, the Subsidiary Guarantee of the New Subsidiary Guarantor shall be automatically and
unconditionally released and discharged, and no further action by the New Subsidiary Guarantor, the Company or the Trustee is required for the release of the New Subsidiary Guarantor’s Subsidiary Guarantee: 

(i) upon the occurrence of any sale, exchange, transfer or other disposition (by merger, consolidation, liquidation,
dissolution or otherwise) of the Capital Stock of the New Subsidiary Guarantor (including any sale, exchange, transfer or other disposition after which the New Subsidiary Guarantor is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary) or of all or substantially all
the assets and property of the New Subsidiary Guarantor, which sale, exchange, transfer or other disposition is made in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Indenture; 

  
 C-3 








 (ii) upon the release or discharge of the New Subsidiary Guarantor from its
Guarantee of Indebtedness of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors under the Senior Credit Facilities (including by reason of the termination of the Senior Credit Facilities), if such Subsidiary Guarantor would not then otherwise be required to
guarantee the Notes pursuant to the Indenture, except a discharge or release by or as a result of payment under such Guarantee; provided, that if such Subsidiary Guarantor has Incurred any Indebtedness or issued any Preferred Stock or
Disqualified Stock in reliance on its status as a Subsidiary Guarantor under Section 4.09 of the Indenture, such Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations under such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, as the case may be, so
Incurred are satisfied in full or discharged or are otherwise permitted to be incurred under Section 4.09 of the Indenture. 

(iii) upon the designation of any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Subsidiary Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in
accordance with the Indenture; or 
 (iv) upon the Company exercising its Legal Defeasance option or Covenant Defeasance
option in accordance with Article 8 of the Indenture or the Company’s obligations under the Indenture being discharged in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. 

(6) No Recourse Against Others. No director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of the Subsidiary Guarantor shall have any
liability for any obligations of the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors (including the Subsidiary Guarantor) under the Notes, the Subsidiary Guarantees, the Indenture or this Supplemental Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by
reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. 

(7) Governing Law. THIS SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE WILL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

 (8) Counterparts. The parties may sign any number of copies of this Supplemental Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original,
but all of them together represent the same agreement. The exchange of copies of this Supplemental Indenture and of signature pages by facsimile or PDF transmission shall constitute effective execution and delivery of this Supplemental Indenture as
to the parties hereto and may be used in lieu of the original Supplemental Indenture for all purposes. Signatures of the parties hereto transmitted by facsimile or PDF shall be deemed to be their original signatures for all purposes. 

(9) Effect of Headings. The Section headings herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

any amounts paid by the New Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of Section 2 hereof and Section 11.01 of the Indenture; provided that, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the New Subsidiary Guarantor
shall not 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 Company under the Indenture or the Notes shall have been paid in full.
