Indebtedness, or such issuance, repurchase or redemption of Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period; provided that the Company may elect pursuant to an Officers’
Certificate of the Company delivered to the Trustee to treat all or any portion of the commitment under any Indebtedness as being Incurred at such time, in which case any subsequent Incurrence of Indebtedness under such commitment shall not be
deemed, for purposes of this calculation, to be an Incurrence at such subsequent time. 
 For purposes of making the computation referred to
above, Investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, amalgamations, consolidations and discontinued operations (as determined in accordance with GAAP), in each case with respect to an operating unit of a business, and any operational changes
that the Company and/or the Issuer, as the case may be, or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof has determined to make and/or made during the four-quarter reference period or subsequent to such reference period and on or prior to or simultaneously with
the Calculation Date shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming that all such Investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, amalgamations, consolidations, discontinued operations and other operational changes (and the change of any

or was merged with or into the Company and/or the Issuer, as the case may be, or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof since the beginning of such period shall have made any Investment, acquisition, disposition, merger, consolidation, amalgamation,
discontinued operation or operational change, in each case with respect to an operating unit of a business, that would have required adjustment pursuant to this definition, then the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma
effect thereto for such period as if such Investment, acquisition, disposition, discontinued operation, merger, amalgamation, consolidation or operational change had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period. If since the
beginning of such period any Restricted Subsidiary is designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary or any Unrestricted Subsidiary is designated a Restricted Subsidiary, then the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect
thereto for such period as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period. 
 For purposes of this
definition, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to any event, the pro forma calculations shall be made in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Company. Any such pro forma calculation may include adjustments
appropriate, in the reasonable good faith determination of the Company as set forth in an Officers’ Certificate, to reflect (1) operating expense reductions and other operating improvements or synergies reasonably expected to result from
the applicable event, and (2) all adjustments of the nature used in connection with the calculation of “Adjusted EBITDA” as set forth in footnote (1) to the “Summary Historical and Pro Forma Consolidated Financial and Other
Data” under “Summary” in the Offering Memorandum to the extent such adjustments, without duplication, continue to be applicable to such four-quarter period. 

If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be
calculated as if the rate in effect on the Calculation Date had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any Hedging Obligations applicable to such Indebtedness if such Hedging Obligation has a remaining term in excess of
12 months). Interest on a Capitalized Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably determined by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Company to be the rate of interest implicit in such Capitalized Lease
Obligation in accordance with GAAP. For purposes of making the computation referred to above, interest on any Indebtedness under a revolving credit facility computed on a pro forma basis shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such
Indebtedness during 

  
 18 








 
the applicable period. Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, a Eurocurrency interbank offered rate, or
other rate, shall be deemed to have been based upon the rate actually chosen, or, if none, then based upon such optional rate chosen as the Company may designate. 

For purposes of this definition, any amount in a currency other than U.S. dollars will be converted to U.S. dollars based on the average
exchange rate for such currency for the most recent twelve month period immediately prior to the date of determination in a manner consistent with that used in calculating EBITDA for the applicable period.

shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to the Acquisition. 
 “Fixed Charges” means, with respect to any Person for
any period, the sum, without duplication, of: (1) Consolidated Interest Expense (excluding amortization or write-off of deferred financing costs) of such Person for such period, and (2) all cash dividend payments (excluding items

Person at the time it becomes a Subsidiary.

taking delivery and title thereto, (d) in respect of Capitalized Lease Obligations, or (e) representing any Hedging Obligations, if and to the extent that any of the foregoing indebtedness would appear as a liability on a balance sheet

Person (whether or not such Indebtedness is assumed by such Person); provided, however, that the amount of such Indebtedness will be the lesser of: (a) the Fair Market Value (as determined in good faith by the Company) of such asset at
such date of determination, and (b) the amount of such Indebtedness of such other Person; 
 provided, however, that notwithstanding the
foregoing, Indebtedness shall be deemed not to include (1) Contingent Obligations Incurred in the ordinary course of business and not in respect of borrowed money; (2) deferred or prepaid revenues; (3) purchase price holdbacks in
respect of a portion of the purchase price of an asset to satisfy warranty or other unperformed obligations of the respective seller; (4) Obligations under or in respect of Qualified Receivables Financing; (5) obligations under the

Other Second-Priority Obligations and (c) all other Obligations in respect of, or arising under, the Second-Priority Obligations Documents, including all fees and expenses of the collateral agent for any Other Second-Priority Obligations and
shall include all interest and fees, which but for the filing of a petition in bankruptcy with respect to the Company, the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, would have accrued on such obligations, whether or not a claim for such interest or fees
is allowed in such proceeding. 
 “Second-Priority Obligations Documents” means the Notes Documents and any other document
or instrument evidencing or governing any Other Second-Priority Obligations. 
 “Second-Priority Secured Parties” means the
persons holding any Second-Priority Obligations, including the Second-Priority Collateral Agent. 
 “Secured Bank
Indebtedness” means any Bank Indebtedness that is secured by a Permitted Lien Incurred or deemed Incurred pursuant to clause (6) of the definition of Permitted Liens, as designated by the Company to be included in this definition. 

“Secured Indebtedness” means any Consolidated Total Indebtedness secured by a Lien. 

“Secured Indebtedness Leverage Ratio” means, with respect to any Person, at any date, the ratio of (i) Secured
Indebtedness of such Person and its Restricted Subsidiaries less the amount of cash and Cash Equivalents in excess of any Restricted Cash (but which such excess amount of cash and Cash Equivalents shall not exceed $50 million for purposes of this
definition) that would be stated on the balance sheet of such Person and its Restricted Subsidiaries and held by such Person and its Restricted Subsidiaries as of such date of determination (determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with
GAAP) to (ii) EBITDA of such Person for the four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding such date on which such additional Indebtedness is Incurred. In the event that the Company and/or
the Issuer, as the case may be, or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof Incurs, repays, repurchases or redeems any Indebtedness subsequent to the commencement of the period for which the Secured Indebtedness Leverage Ratio is being calculated but prior
to the event for which the calculation of the Secured Indebtedness Leverage Ratio is made (the “Secured Leverage Calculation Date”), then the Secured Indebtedness Leverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to such
Incurrence, repayment, repurchase or redemption of Indebtedness, or such issuance, repurchase or redemption of Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period; provided
that the Company may elect pursuant to an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee to treat all or any portion of the commitment under any Indebtedness as being Incurred at such time, in which case any subsequent Incurrence of
Indebtedness under such commitment shall not be deemed, for purposes of this calculation, to be an Incurrence at such subsequent time. 

For purposes of making the computation referred to above, Investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, amalgamations, consolidations and
discontinued operations (as determined in accordance with GAAP), in each case with respect to an operating unit of a business, and any operational changes that the Company and/or the Issuer, as the case may be, or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof
has determined to make and/or made during the four-quarter reference period or subsequent to such reference period and on or prior to or simultaneously with the Secured Leverage Calculation Date shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming that
all such Investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, amalgamations, consolidations, discontinued operations and other operational changes (and the change of any associated fixed charge obligations and the change in EBITDA resulting therefrom)
had occurred on the first day of the four-quarter reference period. If since the beginning of such period any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged with or into the Company and/or the Issuer, as the case may be, or
any Restricted Subsidiary thereof since the beginning of such period shall have made any Investment, acquisition, disposition, merger, consolidation, amalgamation, discontinued operation or operational change, in each case with respect to an
operating unit of a business, that would have required adjustment pursuant to this definition, then the Secured Indebtedness Leverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect thereto for such period as if such Investment, acquisition,
disposition, discontinued operation, merger, amalgamation, consolidation or 

  
 31 








 
operational change had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period. If since the beginning of such period any Restricted Subsidiary is designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary or
any Unrestricted Subsidiary is designated a Restricted Subsidiary, then the Secured Indebtedness Leverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect thereto for such period as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the
applicable four-quarter period. 
 For purposes of this definition, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to any event, the pro forma
calculations shall be made in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Company. Any such pro forma calculation may include adjustments appropriate, in the reasonable good faith determination of the Company as set forth in
an Officers’ Certificate, to reflect (1) operating expense reductions and other operating improvements or synergies reasonably expected to result from the applicable event, and (2) all adjustments of the nature used in connection with
the calculation of “Adjusted EBITDA” as set forth in footnote (1) to the “Summary Historical and Pro Forma Consolidated Financial and Other Data” under “Summary” in the Offering Memorandum to the extent such
adjustments, without duplication, continue to be applicable to such four-quarter period. 
 If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of
interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on the Secured Leverage Calculation Date had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any Hedging
Obligations applicable to such Indebtedness if such Hedging Obligation has a remaining term in excess of 12 months). Interest on a Capitalized Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably determined by a responsible
financial or accounting officer of the Company to be the rate of interest implicit in such Capitalized Lease Obligation in accordance with GAAP. For purposes of making the computation referred to above, interest on any Indebtedness under a revolving
credit facility computed on a pro forma basis shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during the applicable period. Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a
factor of a prime or similar rate, a Eurocurrency interbank offered rate, or other rate, shall be deemed to have been based upon the rate actually chosen, or, if none, then based upon such optional rate chosen as the Company may designate. 

For purposes of this definition, any amount in a currency other than U.S. dollars will be converted to U.S. dollars based on the average
exchange rate for such currency for the most recent twelve month period immediately prior to the date of determination in a manner consistent with that used in calculating EBITDA for the applicable period. 

For the avoidance of doubt, on and after the date hereof, the Secured Indebtedness Leverage Ratio with respect to the Company shall be
calculated giving pro forma effect to the Acquisition. 
 “Securities Act” means the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder. 
 “Security Documents” means the Collateral Agreement,
intellectual property security agreements, pledge agreements, collateral assignments, mortgages and related agreements entered into by the Issuer or the Guarantors which are Domestic Subsidiaries, as amended, supplemented, restated, renewed,
refunded, replaced, restructured, repaid, refinanced or otherwise modified from time to time, creating the security interests in the Collateral for the benefit of the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and the holders of the Notes as contemplated by this
Indenture.

of the Company within the meaning of Rule 1-02 under Regulation S-X promulgated by the SEC (or any successor provision). 
 “Similar
Business” means a business, the majority of whose revenues are derived from the activities of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries as of the Issue Date or the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the date hereof or any business or activity that is
reasonably similar or complementary thereto or a reasonable extension, development or expansion thereof or ancillary thereto.

Section 13(d)(3) or Section 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act, or any successor provision) with the Crestview Sponsors; provided that any Crestview Sponsor (x) owns a majority of the voting power and (y) controls a majority of
the Board of Directors of the Issuer. 
 “Standard Securitization Undertakings” means representations, warranties,
covenants, indemnities and guarantees of performance entered into by the Company or any Subsidiary thereof which the Company has determined in good faith to be customary in a Receivables Financing including, without limitation, those relating to the
servicing of the assets of a Receivables Subsidiary, it being understood that any Receivables Repurchase Obligation shall be deemed to be a Standard Securitization Undertaking. 

“Stated Maturity” means, with respect to any security, the date specified in such security as the fixed date on which the
final payment of principal of such security is due and payable, including pursuant to any mandatory redemption provision (but excluding any provision providing for the repurchase of such security at the option of the holder thereof upon the
happening of any contingency beyond the control of the issuer unless such contingency has occurred). 
 “Subordinated
Indebtedness” means (a) with respect to the Issuer, any Indebtedness of the Issuer which is by its terms subordinated in right of payment to the Notes, and (b) with respect to any Guarantor, any Indebtedness of such Guarantor
which is by its terms subordinated in right of payment to its Guarantee. 
 “Subsidiary” means, with respect to any Person,
(1) any corporation, association or other business entity (other than a partnership, joint venture or limited liability company) of which more than 50% of the total voting power of shares of Capital Stock entitled (without regard to the
occurrence of any contingency) to vote in the election of directors, managers or trustees thereof is at the time of determination owned or controlled, directly or indirectly, by such Person or one or more of the other Subsidiaries of that Person or
a combination thereof, and (2) any partnership, joint venture or limited liability company of which (x) more than 50% of the capital accounts, distribution rights, total equity and voting interests or general and limited partnership
interests, as applicable, are owned or controlled, directly or indirectly, by such Person or one or more of the other Subsidiaries of that Person or a combination thereof, whether in the form of membership, general, special or limited partnership
interests or otherwise, and (y) such Person or any Subsidiary of such Person is a controlling general partner or otherwise controls such entity.

Restricted Subsidiaries, as shown on the most recent balance sheet of the Company, as the case may be, calculated on a pro forma basis after giving effect to any subsequent acquisition or disposition of a Person or business. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein and unless otherwise provided herein, references to the Total Assets with respect to
either the Company and/or the Issuer for all purposes herein means the Total Assets of the Issuer for all calculations and measurements at any time prior to the date hereof and the Total Assets of the Company for all calculations and measurements at
any time from the date hereof. 

  
 33 








 “Total Leverage Ratio” means, with respect to any Person, at any date, the ratio
of (i) Consolidated Total Indebtedness of such Person and its Restricted Subsidiaries as of such date of calculation less the amount of cash and Cash Equivalents in excess of any Restricted Cash (but which such excess amount of cash and Cash
Equivalents shall not exceed $50 million for purposes of this definition) that would be stated on the balance sheet of such Person and its Restricted Subsidiaries and held by such Person and its Restricted Subsidiaries as of such date of
determination (determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP) to (ii) EBITDA of such Person for the four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date of such calculation.
In the event that the Company and/or the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof Incurs, repays, repurchases or redeems any Indebtedness subsequent to the commencement of the period for which the Total Leverage Ratio is being calculated but
prior to the event for which the calculation of the Total Leverage Ratio is made (the “Total Leverage Calculation Date”), then the Total Leverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to such Incurrence, repayment,
repurchase or redemption of Indebtedness, or such issuance, repurchase or redemption of Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period; provided that the Company may
elect pursuant to an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee to treat all or any portion of the commitment under any Indebtedness as being Incurred at such time, in which case any subsequent Incurrence of Indebtedness under such
commitment shall not be deemed, for purposes of this calculation, to be an Incurrence at such subsequent time. 
 For purposes of making the
computation referred to above, Investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, amalgamations, consolidations and discontinued operations (as determined in accordance with GAAP), in each case with respect to an operating unit of a business, and any
operational changes that the Company and/or the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof has determined to make and/or made during the four-quarter reference period or subsequent to such reference period and on or prior to or simultaneously with
the Total Leverage Calculation Date shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming that all such Investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, amalgamations, consolidations, discontinued operations and other operational changes (and the
change of any associated fixed charge obligations and the change in EBITDA resulting therefrom) had occurred on the first day of the four-quarter reference period. If since the beginning of such period any Person that subsequently became a
Restricted Subsidiary or was merged with or into the Company and/or the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof since the beginning of such period shall have made any Investment, acquisition, disposition, merger, consolidation, amalgamation,
discontinued operation or operational change, in each case with respect to an operating unit of a business, that would have required adjustment pursuant to this definition, then the Total Leverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect
thereto for such period as if such Investment, acquisition, disposition, discontinued operation, merger, amalgamation, consolidation or operational change had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period. If since the beginning of
such period any Restricted Subsidiary is designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary or any Unrestricted Subsidiary is designated a Restricted Subsidiary, then the Total Leverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect thereto for such period as
if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period. 
 For purposes of this definition, whenever pro
forma effect is to be given to any event, the pro forma calculations shall be made in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Company. Any such pro forma calculation may include adjustments appropriate, in the reasonable
good faith determination of the Company as set forth in an Officers’ Certificate, to reflect (1) operating expense reductions and other operating improvements or synergies reasonably expected to result from the applicable event, and
(2) all adjustments of the nature used in connection with the calculation of “Adjusted EBITDA” as set forth in footnote (1) to the “Summary Historical and Pro Forma Consolidated Financial and Other Data” under
“Summary” in the Offering Memorandum to the extent such adjustments, without duplication, continue to be applicable to such four-quarter period. 

If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be
calculated as if the rate in effect on the Total Leverage Calculation Date had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any Hedging Obligations applicable to such Indebtedness if such Hedging Obligation has a remaining
term in excess of 12 months). Interest on a Capitalized Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably determined by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Company to be the rate of interest implicit in such
Capitalized Lease Obligation in accordance with GAAP. For purposes of making the computation referred to above, interest on any Indebtedness under a revolving credit facility computed on a pro forma basis shall be computed based upon the average
daily balance of such Indebtedness during the applicable period. Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based 

  
 34 








 
upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, a Eurocurrency interbank offered rate, or other rate, shall be deemed to have been based upon the rate actually chosen, or, if none, then based upon such
optional rate chosen as the Company may designate. 
 For purposes of this definition, any amount in a currency other than U.S. dollars will

period.

 (a) the Subsidiary to be so designated has total consolidated

(ii) such Additional Notes are issued in compliance with the other applicable provisions of this Indenture. With respect to any Additional Notes issued after the Issue Date (except for Notes authenticated and delivered upon registration of

hereto setting forth the terms of the Additional Notes. 
 Subject to Section 9.06, the Initial Notes and any Additional Notes may, at
the Issuer’s option, be treated as a single class for all purposes under this Indenture, including, without limitation, waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase; provided that if the Additional Notes are not fungible with
the Initial Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Additional Notes will have a separate CUSIP number, if applicable. 

Section 2.02 Form and Dating. Provisions relating to the Initial Notes and the Exchange Notes are set forth in Appendix A, which
is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of this Indenture. The (i) Initial Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication and (ii) any Additional Notes (if issued as Transfer Restricted Notes) and the Trustee’s
certificate of authentication shall each be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of this Indenture. The (i) Exchange Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication
and (ii) any Additional Notes issued other than as Transfer Restricted Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall each be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit B hereto, which is hereby incorporated in and
expressly made a part of this Indenture. The Notes may have notations, legends 

  
 39 








 
or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule, agreements to which the Issuer or any Guarantor is subject, if any, or usage (provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement
is in a form acceptable to the Issuer). Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication. The Notes shall be issuable only in registered form without interest coupons and in denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiples of $1,000 in
excess thereof, provided that Notes may be issued in denominations of less than $2,000 solely to accommodate book-entry positions that have been created by the Depository in denominations of less than $2,000. 

Section 2.03 Execution and Authentication. The Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery upon a written order of
the Issuer signed by one Officer of the Issuer (a) Initial Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $350,000,000 issued on the Issue Date, (b) subject to the terms of this Indenture, Additional Notes in an aggregate principal amount to be
determined at the time of issuance and specified therein, (c) the Exchange Notes for issue in a Registered Exchange Offer pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement for a like principal amount of Initial Notes exchanged pursuant thereto or
otherwise pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and (d) Initial Notes for a like principal amount of Exchange Notes outstanding at such date immediately prior to such exchange issued on the date the
Acquisition is consummated. Such order shall specify the amount of separate Note certificates to be authenticated, the principal amount of each of the Notes to be authenticated, the date on which the original issue of Notes is to be authenticated,
whether the Notes are to be Initial Notes, Additional Notes or Exchange Notes, the registered holder of each of the Notes and delivery instructions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or Appendix A, any issuance of Additional
Notes after the Issue Date shall be in a principal amount of at least $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. 
 One
Officer of the Issuer shall sign the Notes for the Issuer by manual or facsimile signature. 
 If an Officer of the Issuer 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 signatory of the Trustee manually signs the certificate of authentication on the Note. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been authenticated under this Indenture. 

The Trustee may appoint one or more authenticating agents reasonably acceptable to the Issuer to authenticate the Notes. Any such appointment
shall be evidenced by an instrument signed by a Trust Officer, a copy of which shall be furnished to the Issuer. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each
reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as any Registrar, Paying Agent or agent for service of notices and demands. 

Section 2.04 Registrar and Paying Agent. 

(a) The Issuer shall maintain (i) an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (the
“Registrar”) and (ii) 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 Issuer may have
one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrars. The term “Paying Agent” includes the Paying Agent and any additional paying agents. The Issuer
initially appoints the Trustee as Registrar, Paying Agent and the Notes Custodian with respect to the Global Notes. 
 (b) The Issuer may
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 TIA. The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent. The
Issuer shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any such agent. If the Issuer 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 domestically organized Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar. 

  
 40 








 (c) The Issuer 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) if applicable, acceptance of an appointment by a successor Registrar or Paying Agent, as the case may be, as evidenced by an
appropriate agreement entered into by the Issuer 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 Issuer, the Company and the Trustee; provided, however, that the Trustee may resign as
Paying Agent or Registrar only if the Trustee also resigns as Trustee in accordance with Section 7.08. 
 Section 2.05 Paying Agent
to Hold Money in Trust. Prior to each due date of the principal of and interest on any Note, the Issuer shall deposit with each Paying Agent (or if the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company is acting as Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust
for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto) a sum sufficient to pay such principal and interest when so becoming due. The Issuer shall require each Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to agree in writing that a Paying Agent shall hold in
trust for the benefit of holders or the Trustee all money held by a Paying Agent for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes, and shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Issuer in making any such payment. 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 in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by
it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed by such Paying Agent. Upon complying with this Section 2.05, a Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money delivered to the Trustee. 

Section 2.06 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. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuer 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. 

Section 2.07 Transfer and Exchange. The Notes shall be issued in registered form and shall be transferable only upon the surrender
of a Note for registration of transfer and in compliance with Appendix A. When a Note is presented to the Registrar with a request to register a transfer, the Registrar shall register the transfer as requested if its requirements therefor are met.
When Notes are presented to the Registrar with a request to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Notes of other denominations, the Registrar shall make the exchange as requested if the same requirements are met. To permit registration of
transfers and exchanges, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Notes at the Registrar’s request. The Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to pay all taxes, assessments or other governmental charges in connection
with any transfer or exchange pursuant to this Section. The Issuer shall not be required to make, and the Registrar need not register, transfers or exchanges of Notes selected for redemption (except, in the case of Notes to be redeemed in part, the
portion thereof not to be redeemed) or of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed. 
 Prior to the due
presentation for registration of transfer of any Note, the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Registrar may deem and treat the Person in whose name a Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of
receiving payment of principal of and interest, if any, on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note is overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Registrar shall be affected
by notice to the contrary. 
 Any holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Note shall, by acceptance of such beneficial interest, 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. 
 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. 

  
 41 








 The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance
with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note (including any transfers between or among Depository participants or beneficial owners of interests in
any Global Note) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by the terms of, this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine
substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof. 
 None of the Trustee, Registrar or Paying Agent shall have any
responsibility for any actions taken or not taken by the Depository. 
 Section 2.08 Replacement Notes. If a mutilated Note is
surrendered to the Registrar or if the holder of a Note claims that the Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Note if the requirements of Section 8-405 of the
Uniform Commercial Code are met, such that the holder (a) satisfies the Issuer and the Trustee within a reasonable time after such holder has notice of such loss, destruction or wrongful taking and the Registrar does not register a transfer
prior to receiving such notification, (b) makes such request to the Issuer and the Trustee prior to the Note being acquired by a protected purchaser as defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code (a “protected
purchaser”) and (c) satisfies any other reasonable requirements of the Issuer and the Trustee. If required by the Trustee or the Issuer, such holder shall furnish an indemnity bond sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the
Issuer to protect the Issuer, the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Registrar from any loss or liability that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced and subsequently presented or claimed for payment. The Issuer and the Trustee may charge the
holder for their expenses in replacing a Note (including without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements in replacing such Note). In the event any such mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Note has become or is about to become
due and payable, the Issuer in its discretion may pay such Note instead of issuing a new Note in replacement thereof. 
 Every replacement
Note is an additional obligation of the Issuer. 
 The provisions of this Section 2.08 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent
lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Notes. 

Section 2.09 Outstanding Notes. Notes outstanding at any time are all Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled
by it, those delivered to it for cancellation and those described in this Section as not outstanding. Subject to Section 13.06, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer holds the Note. 

If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.08 (other than a mutilated Note surrendered for replacement), it ceases to be outstanding
unless the Trustee and the Issuer receives proof satisfactory to them that the replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser. A mutilated Note ceases to be outstanding upon surrender of such Note and replacement thereof pursuant to
Section 2.08. 
 If a Paying Agent segregates and holds in trust, in accordance with this Indenture, on a redemption date or maturity
date money sufficient to pay all principal and interest payable on that date with respect to the Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed or maturing, as the case may be, and no Paying Agent is prohibited from paying such money to the holders on
that date pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, then on and after that date such Notes (or portions thereof) cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue. 

Section 2.10 Cancellation. The Issuer at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and each Paying
Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation and
shall dispose of canceled Notes in accordance with its customary procedures. The Issuer may not issue new Notes to replace Notes they have redeemed, paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. The Trustee shall not authenticate Notes in place
of canceled Notes other than pursuant to the terms of this Indenture. 

  
 42 








 Section 2.11 Defaulted Interest. If the Issuer defaults in a payment of interest on
the Notes, the Issuer shall pay the defaulted interest then borne by the Notes (plus interest on such defaulted interest to the extent lawful) in any lawful manner. The Issuer may pay the defaulted interest to the Persons who are holders on a
subsequent special record date. The Issuer shall fix or cause to be fixed any such special record date and payment date to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee and shall promptly mail or cause to be mailed to each affected holder a notice that
states the special record date, the payment date and the amount of defaulted interest to be paid. 
 Section 2.12 CUSIP Numbers,
ISINs, Etc. The Issuer may use CUSIP numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers (if then generally in use) to reflect the status of the Notes (and related guarantees) under applicable securities laws and may identify some or all of the
Notes, at its sole discretion, with one or more CUSIPs, ISINs or “Common Code” numbers reflecting that some or all of the Notes have transfer restrictions as if they were issued under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, including by the procedures of The Depository Trust Company, and the Trustee shall use any such CUSIP numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to holders; provided, however, that
any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers, either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of a redemption that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed
on the Notes and that any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Issuer shall advise the Trustee of any change in any such CUSIP numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers. 

Section 2.13 Calculation of Principal Amount of Notes. The aggregate principal amount of the Notes, at any date of determination,
shall be the principal amount of the Notes at such date of determination. With respect to any matter requiring consent, waiver, approval or other action of the holders of a specified percentage of the principal amount of all the Notes, such
percentage shall be calculated, on the relevant date of determination, by dividing (a) the principal amount, as of such date of determination, of Notes, the holders of which have so consented, by (b) the aggregate principal amount, as of
such date of determination, of the Notes then outstanding, in each case, as determined in accordance with the preceding sentence, Section 2.09 and Section 13.06 of this Indenture. Any calculation of the Applicable Premium or made pursuant
to this Section 2.13 shall be made by the Issuer and delivered to the Trustee pursuant to an Officers’ Certificate of the Issuer. 

ARTICLE III 
 REDEMPTION

redemption in the Issuer’s name and at its expense and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in Section 3.05. Any such notice may be canceled at any time prior to notice of such redemption being mailed to
any holder or otherwise delivered in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depository and shall thereby be void and of no effect. The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee such documentation and records as shall enable the Trustee to select
the Notes to be redeemed pursuant to Section 3.04. 

  
 43 








 Section 3.04 Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed. In the case of any partial
redemption, selection of the Notes for redemption will be made by the Trustee in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes are listed (and the Issuer shall notify the Trustee of such
listing), or if the Notes are not so listed, on a pro rata basis to the extent practicable or by lot or by such other method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate (and, in such manner that complies with the requirements of the Depository,
if applicable); provided that no Notes of $2,000 (and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) or less shall be redeemed in part. The Trustee shall make the selection from outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption. The
Trustee may select for redemption portions of the principal of Notes that have denominations larger than $2,000. Notes and portions of them the Trustee selects shall be in amounts of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.
Provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption. The Trustee shall notify the Issuer promptly of the Notes or portions of Notes to be redeemed. 

Section 3.05 Notice of Optional Redemption. 

(a) At least 30 but not more than 60 days before a redemption date pursuant to Paragraph 5 of the Note, the Issuer shall mail or cause to be
mailed by first-class mail, or otherwise deliver in accordance with the procedures of the Depository, a notice of redemption to each holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address (with a copy to the Trustee), except that redemption
notices may be mailed or otherwise delivered more than 60 days prior to the redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Article VIII. 

Any such notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed and shall state: 

(i) the redemption date; 

(ii) the redemption price and the amount of accrued interest (including Additional Interest, if any) to the redemption date;

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

(iv) that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price, plus

 (viii) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP number or ISIN and/or “Common
Code” number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes. 
 (b) At the Issuer’s request, the Trustee shall deliver
the notice of redemption in the Issuer’s name and at the Issuer’s expense. In such event, the Issuer shall notify the Trustee of such request at least three (3) Business Days prior to the date such notice is to be provided to holders.
Such notice may not be canceled once delivered to holders of Notes. 

  
 44 








 Section 3.06 Effect of Notice of Redemption. Once notice of redemption is mailed or
otherwise delivered in accordance with Section 3.05, Notes called for redemption become due and payable on the redemption date and at the redemption price stated in the notice, except as provided in the final paragraph of paragraph 5 of the
Notes. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such Notes shall be paid at the redemption price stated in the notice, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date; provided,
however, that if the redemption date is after a regular Record Date and on or prior to the next Interest Payment Date, the accrued interest shall be payable to the holder of the redeemed Notes registered on the relevant Record Date. Failure to
give notice or any defect in the notice to any holder shall not affect the validity of the notice to any other holder. 
 Section 3.07
Deposit of Redemption Price. With respect to any Notes, prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the redemption date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or, if the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company is the Paying Agent,
shall segregate and hold in trust) money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, on all Notes or portions thereof to be redeemed on that date other than Notes or portions of Notes
called for redemption that have been delivered by the Issuer to the Trustee for cancellation. On and after the redemption date, interest shall cease to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption so long as the Issuer has deposited

notice of redemption relating to such Note shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. Upon surrender and cancellation of a Note that is redeemed in part, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate for
the holder (at the Issuer’s expense) a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Note surrendered and cancelled.

including (A) “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and (B) unaudited quarterly financial statements prepared in
accordance with GAAP; and 
 (iii) within the time periods specified for filing Current Reports on Form 8- K after the

information that would have been required to be contained in a Current Report on Form 8- K under the Exchange Act if the Company had been a reporting company under the Exchange Act. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, such reports (A) will not be required to comply with Section 302, Section 906 or
Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or related Items 307 and 308 of Regulation S- K promulgated by the SEC, or Item 10(e) of Regulation S- K (with respect to any non- GAAP financial measures contained therein) and (B) will
not be required to contain the separate financial information for Guarantors or Subsidiaries whose securities are pledged to secure the Notes contemplated by Rule 3- 10 or Rule 3- 16 of Regulation S- X promulgated by the SEC. 

(b) At any time that any of the Subsidiaries of the Company that have been designated as Unrestricted Subsidiaries have combined net assets
exceeding 10% of the Company’s consolidated net assets, then the quarterly and annual financial information required by Section 3.10(a) will include or be accompanied by a reasonably detailed presentation of the financial condition and
results of operations of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries separate from the financial condition and results of operations of the Unrestricted Subsidiaries of the Company.

Section 3.10 with respect to financial information relating to the Company by furnishing financial information relating to such parent; provided that the same is accompanied by consolidating information that explains in reasonable detail the
differences between the information relating to such parent, on the one hand, and the information relating to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries on a standalone basis, on the other hand.

responsibility whatsoever to determine if such filing has occurred. 
 (f) Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the
Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Issuer’s

provided, however, that the Company, the Issuer and any 

  
 46 








 
Subsidiary Guarantor may Incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) or issue shares of Disqualified Stock, and any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company that is not a Subsidiary
Guarantor or the Issuer may Incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness), issue shares of Disqualified Stock or issue shares of Preferred Stock, in each case if the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of the Company for the most recently ended four
full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date on which such additional Indebtedness is Incurred or such Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is issued would have been at least 2.00 to 1.00
determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom), as if the additional Indebtedness had been Incurred, or the Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock had been issued, as the case may be,
and the application of the proceeds therefrom had occurred at the beginning of such four-quarter period; provided, further, that any Restricted Subsidiary that is not the Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor may not incur Indebtedness or issue
shares of Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock in excess of an amount together with any Refinancing Indebtedness thereof pursuant to Section 4.03(b)(xv), equal to, after giving pro forma effect to such incurrence or issuance (including
pro forma effect to the application of the net proceeds therefrom), $25.0 million (plus, in the case of any Refinancing Indebtedness, the Additional Refinancing Amount). 

(b) The limitations set forth in Section 4.03(a) shall not apply to:

 (iv) Indebtedness (including Capitalized Lease Obligations) Incurred by the
Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, Disqualified Stock issued by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary and Preferred Stock issued by any Restricted Subsidiary to finance (whether prior to or within 270 days after) the acquisition, lease,

Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (xiii) shall cease to be deemed Incurred or outstanding for purposes of this clause (xiii) but shall be deemed incurred for the purposes of Section 4.03(a) from and after the first date on
which the Company, or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, could have incurred such Indebtedness under Section 4.03(a) without reliance upon this clause (xiii));

of this clause (xx) but shall be deemed Incurred for the purposes of Section 4.03(a) from and after the first date on which such Restricted Subsidiary could have Incurred such

under Section 4.03(a) without reliance upon this clause (xxiii)). 
 For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.03: 

(1) in the event that an item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) meets the
criteria of more than one of the categories of permitted Indebtedness described in clauses (i) through (xxiii) of Section 4.03(b) above or is entitled to be Incurred pursuant to Section 4.03(a), then the Company may, in its sole
discretion, classify or reclassify, or later divide, classify or reclassify, such item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this Section 4.03; provided, that
Indebtedness outstanding under the Credit Agreement on the Issue Date and the New Credit Agreement on the date hereof shall be Incurred under clause (i) of Section 4.03(b) above and may not be reclassified; 

(2) at the time of Incurrence, the Company will be entitled to divide and classify an item of Indebtedness in more than one of
the categories of Indebtedness described in Section 4.03(a) or clauses (i) through (xxiii) of Section 4.03 (b) (or any portion thereof) without giving pro forma effect to the Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to any
other clause or paragraph of Section 4.03 (or any portion thereof) when calculating the amount of Indebtedness that may be Incurred pursuant to any such clause or paragraph (or any portion thereof) (provided that any calculation under clause
(xvi)(2) of Section 4.03(b) shall give effect to all other Indebtedness being incurred on such date); 
 (3) if any
Indebtedness denominated in U.S. dollars is exchanged, converted or refinanced into Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, then (in connection with such exchange, conversion or refinancing, and thereafter), the U.S. dollar amount
limitations set forth in any of clauses (i) through (xxiii) of Section 4.03(b) with respect to such exchange, conversion or refinancing shall be deemed to be the amount of such foreign currency, as applicable, into which such
Indebtedness has been exchanged, converted or refinanced at the time of such exchange, conversion or refinancing; and 

  
 51 








 (4) if any Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency is exchanged,
converted or refinanced into Indebtedness denominated in U.S. dollars, then (in connection with such exchange, conversion or refinancing, and thereafter), the U.S. dollar amount limitations set forth in any of clauses (i) through
(xxiii) of Section 4.03(b) with respect to such exchange, conversion or refinancing shall be deemed to be the amount of U.S. dollars into which such Indebtedness has been exchanged, converted or refinanced at the time of such exchange,
conversion or refinancing. 
 Accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the payment of interest or dividends in the form of
additional Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, as applicable, amortization of original issue discount, the accretion of liquidation preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of
fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies will not be deemed to be an Incurrence of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock for purposes of this Section 4.03. Guarantees of, or obligations in respect of letters of credit
relating to, Indebtedness which is otherwise included in the determination of a particular amount of Indebtedness shall not be included in the determination of such amount of Indebtedness; provided that the Incurrence of the Indebtedness
represented by such guarantee or letter of credit, as the case may be, was in compliance with this Section 4.03. 
 For purposes of
determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the Incurrence of Indebtedness other than as provided in clauses (3) and (4) above, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign
currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was Incurred, in the case of term debt, or first committed or first Incurred (whichever yields the lower U.S. dollar equivalent), in
the case of revolving credit debt. However, if the Indebtedness is Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and the 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 the refinancing, the U.S. dollar-denominated restriction will be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of the refinancing Indebtedness does not
exceed the principal amount of the Indebtedness being refinanced. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.03, the
maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries may Incur pursuant to this Section 4.03 shall not be deemed to be exceeded, with respect to any outstanding Indebtedness, 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, will be calculated based on the currency exchange rate
applicable to the currencies in which the respective Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of the refinancing. 

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 4.03 or anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries may not Incur Indebtedness the proceeds of which are utilized to redeem the Crestview Preferred Stock unless at the time of Incurrence of Indebtedness, and after giving effect to, the redemption of the Crestview Preferred Stock, the
Total Leverage Ratio of the Company for the most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date on which such Restricted Payment is made is no greater than 4.50:1.00
determined on a pro forma basis; provided that the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries may not Incur Indebtedness for 10 days before or after such redemption of the Crestview Preferred Stock where if after giving effect to such Incurrence
of Indebtedness, the Total Leverage Ratio of the Company for the most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date of such Incurrence of Indebtedness is greater than
4.50:1.00 determined on a pro forma basis. 
 Section 4.04 Limitation on Restricted Payments.

retirement and (B) Indebtedness permitted under clauses (vii) and (ix) of Section 4.03(b)); or 
 (iv)

as “Restricted Payments”), unless, at the time of such Restricted Payment: 
 (1) no Default shall have
occurred and be continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof; 
 (2) immediately after giving effect to such
transaction on a pro forma basis, the Company could Incur $1.00 of additional Indebtedness under Section 4.03(a); and 

(3) such Restricted Payment, together with the aggregate amount of all other Restricted Payments made by the Issuer and the
Restricted Subsidiaries after the Issue Date to the date hereof and the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries after the date hereof (including Restricted Payments permitted by clauses (vi) (C) and (xiii)(B) of Section 4.04(b), but

consummation of any irrevocable redemption within 60 days after the date of declaration thereof, if at the date of declaration or the giving notice of such irrevocable redemption, as applicable, such payment would have complied with the provisions
of this Indenture;

(iv) a Restricted Payment to pay for the repurchase, retirement or other acquisition for value of Equity Interests of the

Value of each Investment being measured at the time made and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value); 
 (viii)

partnership or disregarded entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes that is wholly-owned (directly or indirectly) by a C corporation for U.S. federal and/or applicable state or local income tax purposes, distributions to any direct or indirect
parent of the Company in an amount not to exceed the amount of any U.S. federal, state and/or local income taxes that the Company and/or its Subsidiaries, as applicable, would have paid for such taxable period had the Company and/or its

the deductibility of state and local income taxes for U.S. federal income tax purposes (and any limitations thereon), the alternative minimum tax, any cumulative net taxable loss of the Company for prior taxable periods ending after the Issue Date

provided, however, that at the time of, and after giving effect to, any Restricted Payment permitted under clauses (vi)(B), (vii), (x), (xi), (xiii)(B)
and (xx) of this Section 4.04(b), no Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof; provided, further that any Restricted Payments made with property other than cash shall be calculated using
the Fair Market Value (as determined in good faith by the Company) of such property. 
 References in this Section 4.04(b) to the Company are
references to the Issuer at any time prior to the date hereof and are references to Cott at any time from the date hereof. 
 (c) The
Company will not permit any Unrestricted Subsidiary to become a Restricted Subsidiary except pursuant to the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary.” For purposes of designating any Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, all
outstanding Investments by the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries (except to the extent repaid) in the Subsidiary so designated will be deemed to be Restricted Payments in an amount determined as set forth in the last sentence of the definition
of “Investments.” Such designation will only be permitted if a Restricted Payment or Permitted Investment in such amount would be permitted at such time and if such Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

 Section 4.05 Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Subsidiaries. The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of the Restricted
Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or consensual restriction on the ability of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary to:

respect to the ABL Facility Documents and (y) other contractual encumbrances or restrictions in effect on the Issue Date with respect to the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries and on the date hereof with respect to the Company and its
Restricted Subsidiaries, and in each case, any similar contractual encumbrances effected by any amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of such agreements or instruments; 

  
 58

(3) applicable law or any applicable rule, regulation or order; 

(4) any agreement or other instrument of a Person acquired by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary which was in existence
at the time of such acquisition (but not created in contemplation thereof or to provide all or any portion of the funds or credit support utilized to consummate such acquisition), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or
the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person and its Subsidiaries, or the property or assets of the Person and its Subsidiaries, so acquired; 

(5) contracts or agreements for the sale of assets, including any restriction with respect to a Restricted Subsidiary imposed
pursuant to an agreement entered into for the sale or disposition of the Capital Stock or assets of such Restricted Subsidiary;

 (8) customary provisions
in joint venture agreements and other similar agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business;

manner the subletting, assignment or transfer of any property or asset that is subject to a lease, license or similar contract, or the assignment or transfer of any such lease, license (including without limitations, licenses of intellectual
property) or other contracts; 
 (12) any encumbrance or restriction of a Receivables Subsidiary effected in connection with
a Qualified Receivables Financing; provided, however, that such restrictions apply only to such Receivables Subsidiary; 

(13) other Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (a) of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary that is
the Issuer, a Guarantor or a Foreign Subsidiary or (b) of any Restricted Subsidiary that is not the Issuer, a Guarantor or a Foreign Subsidiary so long as such encumbrances and restrictions contained in any agreement or instrument will not
materially affect the Issuer’s ability to make anticipated principal or interest payments on the Notes (as determined in good faith by the Company) or the ability of such Guarantor to comply with its obligations under its Guarantee,
provided that in the case of each of clauses (a) and (b), such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is permitted to be Incurred subsequent to the Issue Date pursuant to Section 4.03;

(14) above; provided that such amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings are, in the good faith judgment of the Company, no more restrictive with respect to such
dividend and other payment restrictions than those contained in the dividend or other payment restrictions prior to such amendment, modification, restatement, renewal, increase, supplement, refunding, replacement or refinancing. 

For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.05, (i) the priority of any Preferred Stock in 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 and (ii) the subordination of loans or advances made to
the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary to other Indebtedness Incurred by the Company or any such Restricted Subsidiary shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make loans or advances. 

Section 4.06 Asset Sales. 

(a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of the Restricted Subsidiaries to, cause or make an Asset Sale, unless (x) the Company
or any Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value (as determined in good faith by the Company) of the assets sold or otherwise disposed of, and (y) at
least 75 % of the consideration therefor received by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of Cash Equivalents; provided that the amount of: 

(i) any liabilities (as shown on the Company’s or a Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet or in the notes
thereto) of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary (other than liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any Guarantee) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets or that are otherwise cancelled or terminated in
connection with the transaction with such transferee, 
 (ii) any notes or other obligations or other securities or assets
received by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash within 180 days of the receipt thereof (to the extent of the cash received), 

(iii) Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary (other than the Issuer) that is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary as a result
of such Asset Sale, to the extent that the Company and each other Restricted Subsidiary are released from any guarantee of payment of such Indebtedness in connection with the Asset Sale, 

(iv) consideration consisting of Indebtedness of the Issuer (to the extent received after the Issue Date to the date hereof)
and Indebtedness the Company (to the extent received from and after the date hereof) (in each case, other than Subordinated Indebtedness) from Persons who are not the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, and 

  
 60 








 (v) any Designated Non-cash Consideration received by the Company (to the extent
received from and after the date hereof) or any Restricted Subsidiary in such Asset Sale having an aggregate Fair Market Value (as determined in good faith by the Company), taken together with all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received
pursuant to this Section 4.06(a)(v) that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed the greater of $40.0 million and 3.0% of Total Assets at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-cash Consideration (with the Fair Market Value of each
item of Designated Non-cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value), 
 shall be deemed
to be Cash Equivalents for the purposes of this Section 4.06(a). 
 (b) Within 365 days after the Company’s or any Restricted
Subsidiary’s receipt of the Net Proceeds of any Asset Sale, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary may apply the Net Proceeds from such Asset Sale, at its option: 

(i) (x) to repay (A) Indebtedness constituting First-Priority Obligations (and, if the Indebtedness repaid is revolving
credit Indebtedness, to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto), (B) Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not the Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor, (C) Obligations under the Notes or (D) other Pari Passu
Indebtedness that is secured by a Lien (other than a Junior Lien Obligation) permitted under this Indenture (provided that if the Company, the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor shall so reduce Pari Passu Indebtedness under this clause
(D) that does not constitute First-Priority Obligations, the Company and the Issuer will equally and ratably reduce Notes Obligations pursuant to Section 3.01, through open-market purchases (provided that such purchases are at or
above 100% of the principal amount thereof or, in the event that the Notes were issued with significant original issue discount, 100% of the accreted value thereof) or by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth below for an
Asset Sale Offer) to all holders to purchase at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof (or, in the event that the Notes were issued with significant original issue discount, 100% of the accreted value thereof), plus
accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, the pro rata principal amount of Notes, in each case other than Indebtedness owed to the Company or an Affiliate of the Company, or (y) to repay ABL Obligations (which repayment need
not be permanent), to the extent the Net Proceeds are from an Asset Sale of ABL Priority Collateral (including indirect Asset Sales of ABL Priority Collateral due to the sale of Capital Stock of a Person); and 

(ii) to make an investment in any one or more businesses (provided that if such investment is in the form of the
acquisition of Capital Stock of a Person, such acquisition results in such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company), assets, or property or capital expenditures, in each case (A) used or useful in a Similar Business or
(B) that replace the properties and assets that are the subject of such Asset Sale; 
 In the case of Section 4.06(b)(ii), a
binding commitment shall be treated as a permitted application of the Net Proceeds from the date of such commitment until the 18-month anniversary of the date of the receipt of such Net Proceeds; provided that in the event such binding
commitment is later canceled or terminated for any reason before such Net Proceeds are so applied, then such Net Proceeds shall constitute Excess Proceeds unless the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary enters into another binding commitment (a
“Second Commitment”) within six months of such cancellation or termination of the prior binding commitment; provided, further, that the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary may only enter into a Second Commitment under the
foregoing provision one time with respect to each Asset Sale and to the extent such Second Commitment is later cancelled or terminated for any reason before such Net Proceeds are applied or are not applied within 180 days of such Second Commitment,
then such Net Proceeds shall constitute Excess Proceeds. 
 Pending the final application of any such Net Proceeds, the Company or such
Restricted Subsidiary may temporarily reduce Indebtedness under a revolving credit facility, if any, or otherwise invest such Net Proceeds in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture. Any Net Proceeds from any Asset Sale that are not applied as
provided and within the time period set forth in the first sentence of this Section 4.06(b) (it being understood that any portion 

  
 61 








 
of such Net Proceeds used to make an offer to purchase Notes, as described in clause (i) of this Section 4.06(b), shall be deemed to have been invested whether or not such offer is
accepted) will be deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $20.0 million, the Company and/or the Issuer shall make an offer to all holders of Notes (and, at the option of the Company, to
holders of any Pari Passu Indebtedness secured by parity liens on the Collateral) (an “Asset Sale Offer”) to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes (and such Pari Passu Indebtedness), that is at least $2,000 and an integral
multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof (or, in the event the Notes or such Pari Passu Indebtedness was issued with
significant original issue discount, 100% of the accreted value thereof), plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any (or, in respect of such Pari Passu Indebtedness, such lesser price, if any, as may be provided for by
the terms of such Pari Passu Indebtedness), to the date fixed for the closing of such offer, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 4.06. The Company and/or the Issuer will commence an Asset Sale Offer with respect to
Excess Proceeds within ten (10) Business Days after the date that Excess Proceeds exceeds $20.0 million by mailing, or delivered electronically if held by the Depository, the notice required pursuant to the terms of Sections 3.05 and 4.06(f),
with a copy to the Trustee. To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes (and such Pari Passu Indebtedness) tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Company and/or the Issuer may use any remaining Excess
Proceeds for any purpose that is not prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes (and such Pari Passu Indebtedness) surrendered by holders thereof exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee, upon receipt of
notice from the Company of the aggregate principal amount to be selected, shall select the Notes to be purchased in the manner described in Section 4.06(e). Upon completion of any such Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be
reset at zero. 
 (c) The Company and the Issuer will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other
securities laws and regulations to the extent such laws or regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict
with the provisions of this Indenture, the Company and the Issuer will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations described in this Indenture by virtue thereof. 

(d) Not later than the date upon which written notice of an Asset Sale Offer is delivered to the Trustee as provided above, the Company shall
deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate as to (i) the amount of the Excess Proceeds, (ii) the allocation of the Net Proceeds from the Asset Sales pursuant to which such Asset Sale Offer is being made and (iii) the
compliance of such allocation with the provisions of Section 4.06(b). On such date, the Company and/or the Issuer shall also irrevocably deposit with the Trustee or with a paying agent (or, if the Company or a Subsidiary is acting as the Paying
Agent, segregate and hold in trust) an amount equal to the Excess Proceeds to be invested in Cash Equivalents, as directed in writing by the Company and/or the Issuer and to be held for payment in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 4.06. Upon the expiration of the period for which the Asset Sale Offer remains open (the “Offer Period”), the Company and/or the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee for cancellation the Notes or portions thereof that
have been properly tendered to and are to be accepted by the Company and/or the Issuer. The Trustee (or the Paying Agent, if not the Trustee) shall, on the date of purchase, mail or deliver payment to each tendering holder in the amount of the
purchase price. In the event that the Excess Proceeds delivered by the Company and/or the Issuer to the Trustee are greater than the purchase price of the Notes tendered, the Trustee shall deliver the excess to the Company and/or the Issuer
immediately after the expiration of the Offer Period for application in accordance with this Section 4.06. 
 (e) Holders electing to
have a Note purchased shall be required to surrender such Note, with an appropriate form duly completed, to the Company and/or the Issuer at the address specified in the notice at least three Business Days prior to the purchase date. Holders shall
be entitled to withdraw their election if the Trustee or the Company and/or the Issuer receives not later than one Business Day prior to the purchase date, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the holder, the
principal amount of the Note which was delivered by the holder for purchase and a statement that such holder is withdrawing his election to have such Note purchased. If at the end of the Offer Period more Notes (and such Pari Passu Indebtedness) are
tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer than the Company and/or the Issuer are required to purchase, selection of such Notes for purchase shall be made by the Trustee in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities
exchange, if any, on which such Notes are listed, or if such Notes are not so listed, on a pro rata basis to the extent practicable, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate (and in such manner as


  
 62 








 
complies with the requirements of the Depository, if applicable); provided that no Notes of $2,000 or less shall be purchased in part. Selection of such Pari Passu Indebtedness shall be
made pursuant to the terms of such Pari Passu Indebtedness. 
 (f) Notices of an Asset Sale Offer shall be mailed by first class mail,
postage prepaid, or delivered electronically if held by the Depository, at least 30 but not more than 60 days before the purchase date to each holder of Notes at such holder’s registered address. If any Note is to be purchased in part only, any
notice of purchase that relates to such Note shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof that has been or is to be purchased. 

Section 4.07 Transactions with Affiliates. 

(a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of the Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, make any payment to, or sell,
lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction or series of transactions, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or
guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Company (each of the foregoing, an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving aggregate consideration in excess of $10.0 million, unless: 

(i) such Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are not materially less favorable to the Company or the relevant Restricted
Subsidiary than those that could have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person; and 

(ii) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in
excess of $25.0 million, the Company delivers to the Trustee a resolution adopted in good faith by the majority of the Board of Directors of the Company, approving such Affiliate Transaction and set forth in an Officers’ Certificate of the
Company certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (i) above. 
 (b) The provisions of Section 4.07(a) shall
not apply to the following: 
 (i) transactions between or among the Company and/or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (or an
entity that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such transaction) and any merger, consolidation or amalgamation of the Company and any direct parent of the Company; provided that such parent shall have no material liabilities and
no material assets other than cash, Cash Equivalents and the Capital Stock of the Company and such merger, consolidation or amalgamation is otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture and effected for a bona fide business purpose; 

(ii) Restricted Payments permitted by Section 4.04 and Permitted Investments; 

(iii) the payment of reasonable and customary fees and reimbursement or advancement of expenses paid to, and indemnity provided
on behalf of, officers, directors, employees or consultants of the Company, any Restricted Subsidiary, or any direct or indirect parent of the Company;

an Independent Financial Advisor stating that such transaction is fair to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view or meets the requirements of clause (i) of Section 4.07(a); 

(v) payments or loans (or cancellation of loans) to officers, directors, employees or consultants which are approved by a

contemplated thereby as determined in good faith by the Company; 
 (vii) the existence of, or the performance by the Company
or any Restricted Subsidiary of its obligations under the terms of any stockholders or limited liability company agreement (including any registration rights agreement or purchase agreement related thereto) to which it is a party as of the Issue
Date, and any transaction, agreement or arrangement described in the Offering Memorandum and, in each case, any amendment thereto or similar transactions, agreements or arrangements which it may enter into thereafter; provided, however, that
the existence of, or the performance by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of its obligations under, any future amendment to any such existing transaction, agreement or arrangement or under any similar transaction, agreement or arrangement
entered into after the Issue Date shall only be permitted by this clause (vii) to the extent that the terms of any such existing transaction, agreement or arrangement together with all amendments thereto, taken as a whole, or new transaction,
agreement or arrangement are not otherwise more disadvantageous to the holders of the Notes in any material respect than the original transaction, agreement or arrangement as in effect on the Issue Date; 

(viii) the execution of the Transactions, and the payment of all fees and expenses related to the Transactions, including fees
paid to the Sponsors; 
 (ix) (A) transactions with customers, clients, suppliers or purchasers or sellers of goods or
services, or transactions otherwise relating to the purchase or sale of goods or services, in each case in the ordinary course of business and otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture, which are fair to the Company and the Restricted
Subsidiaries in the reasonable determination of the Board of Directors or the senior management of the Company, or are on terms at least as favorable as might reasonably have been obtained at such time from an unaffiliated party or

Person; 

  
 64

(xxiii) investments by the Sponsors in securities of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (and payment of reasonable

the proposed or outstanding issue amount of such class of securities; and

 Section 4.08 Change of Control. 

(a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each holder shall have the right to require the Company and/or the Issuer to repurchase all or
any part of such holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase (subject to the right of the holders of record on the relevant
Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date), in accordance with the terms contemplated in this Section 4.08; provided, however, that notwithstanding the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Company and
the Issuer shall not be obligated to purchase any Notes pursuant to this Section 4.08 in the event that it has previously or concurrently exercised its right to redeem such Notes in accordance with Article III of this Indenture. In the event
that at the time of such Change of Control, the terms of the Bank Indebtedness and/or the ABL Facility restrict or prohibit the repurchase of Notes pursuant to this Section 4.08, then prior to the mailing of the notice to the holders provided
for in Section 4.08(b) but in any event within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Company and the Issuer shall (i) repay in full all Bank Indebtedness and/or the ABL Facility or, if doing so will allow the purchase of Notes,
offer to repay in full all Bank Indebtedness and/or the ABL Facility and repay the Bank Indebtedness and/or the ABL Facility of each lender and/or noteholder who has accepted such offer, or (ii) obtain the requisite consent under the agreements
governing the Bank Indebtedness and/or the ABL Facility to permit the repurchase of the Notes as provided for in Section 4.08(b). 
 (b)
Within 30 days following any Change of Control, except to the extent that the Company and/or the Issuer have exercised their right to redeem the Notes in accordance with Article III of this Indenture, the Company and/or the Issuer shall mail a
notice (a “Change of Control Offer”) to each holder, or deliver electronically if held by the Depository, with a copy to the Trustee stating: 

(i) that a Change of Control has occurred and that such holder has the right to require the Company and/or the Issuer to
repurchase such holder’s Notes at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, to the date of repurchase (subject to the right of the holders
of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date); 

  
 65 








 (ii) the circumstances and relevant facts and financial information regarding
such Change of Control; 
 (iii) the repurchase date (which shall be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the
date such notice is mailed); and 
 (iv) the instructions determined by the Company and/or the Issuer, consistent with this
Section 4.08, that a holder must follow in order to have its Notes purchased. 
 (c) Holders electing to have a Note purchased shall be
required to surrender the Note, with an appropriate form duly completed, to the Company and/or the Issuer at the address specified in the notice at least three Business Days prior to the purchase date. The holders shall be entitled to withdraw their
election if the Trustee or the Company and/or the Issuer receive not later than one Business Day prior to the purchase date a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the holder, the principal amount of the Note
which was delivered for purchase by the holder and a statement that such holder is withdrawing his election to have such Note purchased. Holders whose Notes are purchased only in part shall be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the
unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered. 
 (d) On the purchase date, all Notes purchased by the Company and/or the Issuer under this
Section 4.08 shall be delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Company and/or the Issuer shall pay the purchase price plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, to the holders entitled thereto. 

(e) A Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, and conditioned upon such Change of Control, if a definitive
agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time of making of the Change of Control Offer. 
 (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions of this Section 4.08, the Company and/or the Issuer 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 Section 4.08 applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and/or the Issuer and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer. 

(g) Notes repurchased by the Company and/or the Issuer pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will have the status of Notes issued but not
outstanding or will be retired and canceled at the option of the Company and/or the Issuer. Notes purchased by a third party pursuant to the preceding clause (f) will have the status of Notes issued and outstanding. 

(h) At the time the Company and/or the Issuer delivers Notes to the Trustee which are to be accepted for purchase, the Company and/or the
Issuer shall also deliver an Officers’ Certificate stating that such Notes are to be accepted by the Company and/or the Issuer pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Section 4.08. A Note shall be deemed to have been accepted
for purchase at the time the Trustee, directly or through an agent, mails or delivers payment therefor to the surrendering holder. 
 (i)
Prior to any Change of Control Offer, the Company and/or the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that all conditions precedent contained herein to the right of the Company and the Issuer to make such offer have
been complied with. 
 (j) The Company and the Issuer shall comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Section 14(e) of
the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to this Section. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with provisions of this
Section 4.08, the Company and the Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section by virtue thereof. 

  
 66 








 (k) If holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes
validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in a Change of Control Offer and the Company and/or the Issuer, or any third party making a Change of Control Offer in lieu of the Company and/or the Issuer as described above, purchases all of the Notes
validly tendered and not withdrawn by such holders, the Company and/or the Issuer or such third party will have the right, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following such purchase pursuant
to the Change of Control Offer, to redeem all Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, to but excluding
the date of redemption. Any such redemption shall be effected pursuant to Article III. 
 Section 4.09 Compliance Certificate. The
Company and the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company and the Issuer, beginning with the fiscal year ending on December 27, 2013, an Officers’ Certificate stating that in the
course of the performance by the signers of their duties as Officers of the Company and the Issuer they would normally have knowledge of any Default and whether or not the signers know of any Default that occurred during such period. If any Officer
does, the certificate shall describe the Default, its status and what action the Company and the Issuer is taking or propose to take with respect thereto. The Company and the Issuer also shall comply with Sections 314(a)(4) and 314(b) of the TIA.
Except with respect to receipt of payments of principal and interest on the Notes and any Default or Event of Default information contained in the Officers’ Certificate delivered to it pursuant to this Section 4.09, the Trustee shall have
no duty to review, ascertain or confirm the Company’s and the Issuer’s compliance with or the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant made in this Indenture. 

Section 4.10 Further Instruments and Acts. Upon request of the Trustee, the Company and the Issuer shall execute and deliver such
further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purpose of this Indenture. 

Section 4.11 Future Subsidiary Guarantors. The Company and the Issuer shall cause each Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary (other than
the Issuer) that is a Domestic Subsidiary and is not an Excluded Subsidiary and (a) that guarantees or becomes a borrower under the Credit Agreement or ABL Facility or (b) that guarantees any other Indebtedness (other than Junior Lien
Obligations) of the Company, the Issuer or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors secured by the Collateral (other than Excluded Property) to execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto
pursuant to which such Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary will guarantee the Issuer’s Obligations under the Notes and this Indenture. 

Section 4.12 Liens. 
 (a)
The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, Incur or suffer to exist (i) any Lien (except Permitted Liens) on any asset or property of the Company or such Restricted
Subsidiary securing Indebtedness of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, other than Liens on Collateral securing Indebtedness that are junior in priority to the Liens on such property or assets securing the Notes, or (ii) except as permitted
by the Security Documents, any Lien granted by a Guarantor that is a Domestic Subsidiary securing any First-Priority Obligation or ABL Obligation of the Company, the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor without effectively providing that the Notes or
the applicable Guarantee, as the case may be, shall be granted a junior-priority security interest (subject to Permitted Liens) upon the Collateral constituting the collateral for such First-Priority Obligation or ABL Obligation, except in respect
of Excluded Stock; provided, however, that if granting such security interests requires the consent of a third party, the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such consent with respect to the security interests for the benefit
of the Collateral Agent on behalf of the holders of the Notes; provided further, however, that if such third party does not consent to the granting of such security interests after the use of commercially reasonable efforts, the Company will not be
required to provide such security interests. 
 (b) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.12, (i) a Lien
securing an item of Indebtedness need not be permitted solely by reference to one category of permitted Liens (or any portion thereof) described in the definition of “Permitted Liens” but may be permitted in part under any
combination thereof and (ii) in the event that a Lien securing an item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of one or more of the categories of permitted Liens (or any portion
thereof) 

  
 67 








 
described in the definition of “Permitted Liens”, the Company may, in its sole discretion, classify or reclassify, or later divide, classify or reclassify, such Lien securing
such item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this covenant and will be entitled to only include the amount and type of such Lien or such item of Indebtedness secured by such Lien in one of the clauses of the
definition of “Permitted Liens” (or any portion thereof) and in such event, such Lien securing such item of Indebtedness will be treated as being Incurred or existing pursuant to only one of such clauses (or any portion thereof) or
pursuant to Section 4.12(a). 
 (c) With respect to any Lien securing Indebtedness that was permitted to secure such Indebtedness at
the time of the Incurrence of such Indebtedness, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness. The “Increased Amount” of any Indebtedness shall mean any increase in the amount of such
Indebtedness in connection with any accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms or in the form of common stock
of the Company, the payment of dividends on Preferred Stock in the form of additional shares of Preferred Stock of the same class, accretion of original issue discount or liquidation preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding
solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies or increases in the value of property securing Indebtedness described in clause (3) of the definition of “Indebtedness.” 

Section 4.13 After-Acquired Property. 

(a) Upon the acquisition by the Company, the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor of any After-Acquired Property, or upon any additional
Restricted Subsidiary becoming a Subsidiary Guarantor, the Company, the Issuer or Subsidiary Guarantor shall execute and deliver such mortgages, deeds of trust, security instruments, financing statements and other Security Documents as shall be
reasonably necessary to vest in the Collateral Agent a perfected security interest, subject only to Permitted Liens (including the first-priority lien that secures obligations in respect of the First-Priority Obligations and, in the case of ABL
Priority Collateral, the ABL Obligations) and Liens permitted and/or not prohibited under Section 4.12, in such After-Acquired Property and to have such After-Acquired Property (but subject to the limitations as described in Article XI, the
Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements) added to the Collateral (or in the case of the Issuer or a Guarantor, all of its assets that constitute After-Acquired Property), and thereupon all provisions of this Indenture relating to the
Collateral shall be deemed to relate to such After-Acquired Property to the same extent and with the same force and effect; provided that this Section 4.13 shall not be effective with respect to any property or other assets that are excluded
from the grant of a security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Security Documents. 
 (b) In addition, following the
Discharge of First-Priority Obligations, if the Issuer or any Guarantor acquires any property (other than Excluded Property), or any Guarantor is newly created or formed, the Issuer or such Guarantor must execute such mortgages, deeds of trust,
security instruments, financing statements and other Security Documents and, in the case of real property, all Deliverables, as shall be reasonably necessary to ensure that such property (or all the Guarantor’s assets, other than Excluded
Property, in the case of a newly created Guarantor) is pledged to secure the Notes Obligations and the Guarantees and added to the Collateral, and thereupon all provisions of this Indenture relating to the Collateral shall be deemed to relate to
such property to the same extent and with the same force and effect. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if granting a security interest
in any property pursuant to the foregoing clause (a) requires the consent of a third party, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such consent with respect to such junior-priority security interest for the benefit of
the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Trustee and the holders of the Notes. If such third party does not consent to the granting of such junior-priority security interest after the use of such commercially reasonable efforts, the applicable entity
will not be required to provide such security interest. 
 Section 4.14 Maintenance of Office or Agency. 

(a) The Issuer shall maintain an office or agency (which may be an office of the Trustee or an affiliate of the Trustee or Registrar) where
Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange. The Issuer shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Issuer shall fail to
maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations and surrenders may be made at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee as set forth in Section 13.02. 

  
 68 








 (b) The Issuer may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where
the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Issuer of its obligation to
maintain an office or agency for such purposes. The Issuer shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency. 

(c) The Issuer hereby designates the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or its agent as such office or agency of the Issuer in accordance
with Section 2.04. 
 Section 4.15 Covenant Suspension . If on any date following the Issue Date, (i) the Notes have
Investment Grade Ratings from both Rating Agencies, and (ii) no Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture, then, beginning on that day (the occurrence of the events described in the foregoing clauses (i) and
(ii) being collectively referred to as a “Covenant Suspension Event”), and subject to the provisions of the following paragraph, the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be subject to Sections 4.03, 4.04, 4.05,
4.06, 4.07, 4.11 and 5.01(a)(iv) (collectively the “Suspended Covenants”). 
 In the event that the Company and its
Restricted Subsidiaries are not subject to the Suspended Covenants under this Indenture for any period of time as a result of the foregoing, and on any subsequent date (the “Reversion Date”) one or both of the Rating Agencies
withdraw their Investment Grade Rating or downgrade the rating assigned to the Notes below an Investment Grade Rating, then the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries will thereafter again be subject to the Suspended Covenants under this Indenture
with respect to future events. 
 The Company shall provide the Trustee with notice of each Covenant Suspension Event or Reversion Date
within 5 Business Days of the occurrence thereof. 
 On each Reversion Date, all Indebtedness Incurred, or Disqualified Stock or Preferred
Stock issued, during the Suspension Period will be classified as having been Incurred or issued pursuant to Sections 4.03(a) and (b) (to the extent such Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock would be permitted to be Incurred or
issued thereunder as of the Reversion Date and after giving effect to Indebtedness Incurred or issued prior to the Suspension Period and outstanding on the Reversion Date). To the extent such Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock
would not be so permitted to be Incurred or issued pursuant to Sections 4.03(a) and (b), such Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock will be deemed to have been outstanding on the Issue Date, so that it is classified as permitted
under Section 4.03(b)(iii). Calculations made after the Reversion Date of the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under Section 4.04 will be made as though Section 4.04 had been in effect since the Issue Date and prior
to, but not during, the Suspension Period. Accordingly, Restricted Payments made during the Suspension Period will not reduce the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under Section 4.04(a). As described above, however, no Default
or Event of Default will be deemed to have occurred on the Reversion Date as a result of any actions taken by the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries during the Suspension Period. Within 30 days of such Reversion Date, the Company must comply
with the terms of Section 4.11. 
 For purposes of Section 4.06, on the Reversion Date, the unutilized Excess Proceeds amount will
be reset to zero. 
 Section 4.16 Maintenance of Insurance. Subject to the terms of the New Intercreditor Agreement, the Company
shall maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurance companies, insurance (subject to customary deductibles and retentions) in such amounts and against such risks as are customarily maintained by similarly situated companies engaged in the
same or similar businesses operating in the same or similar locations and cause the Company, the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors to be listed as insured and with respect to the Domestic Subsidiaries the Collateral Agent to be listed as co-loss
payee on property and property casualty policies and as an additional insured on liability policies. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company, the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors may self-insure with respect to such risks with respect to
which companies of established reputation in the same general line of business in the same general area usually self-insure.

disposition of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of one or more Subsidiaries of the Company, which properties and assets, if held by the Company instead of such Subsidiaries, would constitute all or substantially all of the

(c) The Successor Company will succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under this Indenture
but in the case of a lease of all or substantially all its assets, the predecessor company will not be released from its obligations under this Indenture or the Notes.

expressly assumes all of the obligations of the Guarantor under its Guarantee of the Notes; and 
 (2) immediately after giving effect to
the transaction, no Default has occurred and is continuing; or 
 (C) the transaction constitutes a sale or other
disposition (including by way of consolidation or merger) of the Guarantor or the sale or disposition of all or substantially all the assets of the Guarantor (in each case other than to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary) otherwise permitted by
this Indenture.

equivalent, 

  
 71

 72 








 (j) unless such Liens have been released in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture, the

with respect to the Company or the Issuer) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of outstanding Notes (with a copy to the Trustee) by notice to the Company or the Issuer may declare the principal
of, premium, if any, and accrued but unpaid interest on all the Notes to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal and interest shall be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(f) or
(g) with respect to the Company or the Issuer occurs, the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on all the Notes will become immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any holders. Under
certain circumstances, the holders of a majority in principal amount of outstanding Notes may rescind any such acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences. 

In the event of any Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(e), such Event of Default and all consequences thereof (excluding,
however, any resulting payment default) shall be annulled, waived and rescinded, automatically and without any action by the Trustee or the holders of the Notes, if within 20 days after such Event of Default arose the Company and the Issuer deliver
an Officers’ Certificate to the Trustee stating that (x) the Indebtedness or guarantee that is the basis for such Event of Default has been discharged or (y) the holders thereof have rescinded or waived the acceleration, notice or
action (as the case may be) giving rise to such Event of Default or (z) the default that is the basis for such Event of Default has been cured, it being understood that in no event shall an acceleration of the principal amount of the Notes as
described above be annulled, waived or rescinded upon the happening of any such events. 
 Section 6.03 Other Remedies. If an Event
of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy at law or in equity to collect the payment of principal of or interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes, this Indenture or the
Security Documents. 

  
 73 








 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 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. No remedy is exclusive of any other remedy. To the extent required by law, all available remedies are cumulative. 
 Section
6.04 Waiver of Past Defaults. Provided the Notes are not then due and payable by reason of a declaration of acceleration, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by written notice to the Trustee may waive
an existing Default and its consequences except (a) a Default in the payment of the principal of or interest on a Note, (b) a Default arising from the failure to redeem or purchase any Note when required pursuant to the terms of this
Indenture or (c) a Default in respect of a provision that under Section 9.02 cannot be amended without the consent of each holder affected. When a Default is waived, it is deemed cured and the Issuer, the Trustee and the holders will be
restored to their former positions and rights under this Indenture, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any consequent right. 

Section 6.05 Control by Majority. The holders of a majority in principal amount of outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and
place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or, if the
Trustee, being advised by counsel, determines that the action or proceeding so directed may not lawfully be taken or if the Trustee in good faith shall determine that the action or proceeding so directed would involve the Trustee in personal
liability or expense for which it is not adequately indemnified, or subject to Section 7.01, that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other holder or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability. Prior to
taking any action under this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification satisfactory to it against all losses, liabilities and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action. 

Section 6.06 Limitation on Suits. 

(a) Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium (if any) or interest when due, no holder may pursue any remedy with
respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless: 
 (i) such holder has previously given the Trustee notice that an Event of
Default is continuing, 
 (ii) holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes have requested the
Trustee to pursue the remedy, 
 (iii) such holders have offered the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it against
any loss, liability or expense, 
 (iv) 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 
 (v) the holders of a majority in principal amount of the
outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period. 
 (b) A holder may not
use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another holder. 
 Section 6.07
Rights of the Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any holder to receive payment of principal of and interest on the Notes held by such holder, on or after the respective due dates
expressed or provided for in the Notes, 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. 

  
 74 








 Section 6.08 Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default specified in
Section 6.01(a) or (b) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer or any other obligor on the Notes for the whole amount then due and owing (together
with interest on overdue principal and (to the extent lawful) on any unpaid interest at the rate provided for in the Notes) and the amounts provided for in Section 7.07. 

Section 6.09 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee may file such proofs of claim, statements of interest and other papers or
documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for reasonable compensation, expenses disbursements and advances of the Trustee (including counsel, accountants, experts or such other
professionals as the Trustee deems necessary, advisable or appropriate)) and the holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer, the Guarantors, their creditors or their property, shall be entitled to participate as a member,
voting or otherwise, of any official committee of creditors appointed in such matters and, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, may vote on behalf of the holders in any election of a trustee in bankruptcy or other Person performing
similar functions, and any Custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each holder to make 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 it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07. Nothing herein contained shall be
deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any holder, or to authorize the Trustee to
vote in respect of the claim of any holder in any such proceeding. 
 Section 6.10 Priorities. Subject to the terms of the
Intercreditor Agreements and the Security Documents, any money or property collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article VI and any other money or property distributable in respect of the Issuer’s or any Guarantor’s obligations under
this Indenture (including upon exercise of any remedies in respect of Collateral) after an Event of Default shall be applied in the following order: 

FIRST: to the Trustee and Collateral Agent for amounts due hereunder and under the Security Documents; 

SECOND: to the holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for principal, premium, if any, and interest, ratably, without preference or
priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for principal and interest, respectively; and 
 THIRD: to the
Issuer or, to the extent the Trustee collects any amount for any Guarantor, to such Guarantor. 
 The Trustee may fix a record date and
payment date for any payment to the holders pursuant to this Section 6.10. At least 15 days before such record date, the Trustee shall mail to each holder and the Issuer a notice that states the record date, the payment date and the amount to
be paid. 
 Section 6.11 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 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 and expenses, 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 Article VI does not apply to
a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a holder pursuant to Section 6.07 or a suit by holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the Notes. 

Section 6.12 Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. Neither the Issuer nor any Guarantor (to the extent it may lawfully do so) shall at any
time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this
Indenture; and the Issuer and the Guarantors (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waive all benefit or advantage of any such law, and shall not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the
Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

thereof. 
 (k) 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 of any event which is in fact such a Default is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references the Notes and this Indenture. 

  
 77 








 (l) The Trustee may request that the Issuer delivers 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 Trustee shall not be

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, the Guarantees or the Notes, it shall not be accountable for the Issuer’s use of the proceeds from the Notes, and it shall not be responsible for any statement of the Issuer or any Guarantor in this
Indenture or in any document issued in connection with the sale of the Notes or in the Notes other than the Trustee’s certificate of authentication. The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any Default or Event of Default under

notice thereof in accordance with Section 13.02 hereof from the Issuer, any Guarantor or any holder. In accepting the trust hereby created, the Trustee acts solely as Trustee under this Indenture and not in its individual capacity and all
persons, including without limitation the holders of Notes and the Issuer having any claim against the Trustee arising from this Indenture shall look only to the funds and accounts held by the Trustee hereunder for payment except as otherwise
provided herein. 
 Section 7.05 Notice of Defaults. If a Default occurs and is continuing and is actually known to a Trust Officer
of the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail to each holder of the Notes, or deliver electronically if held by the Depository, notice of the Default within the earlier of 90 days after it occurs or 30 days after it is actually known to a Trust Officer or
written notice if it is received by the Trustee. 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 its Trust Officers in good
faith determines that withholding notice is in the interests of the holders. The Issuer and the Company are required to deliver to the Trustee, annually, a certificate indicating whether the signers thereof know of any Default that occurred during
the previous year. The Issuer and the Company also are required to deliver to the Trustee, within 30 days after the occurrence thereof, written notice of any event which would constitute certain Defaults, their status and what action the Issuer is

each stock exchange (if any) on which the Notes are listed if the Notes are listed. The Issuer and the Company agree to notify promptly the Trustee whenever the Notes become listed on any stock exchange and of any delisting thereof. All reports
pursuant to this Section 7.06 shall be provided in accordance with Section 313(c) of the TIA. 

  
 78 








 Section 7.07 Compensation and Indemnity. The Issuer and/or the Company shall pay to the
Trustee from time to time compensation for the Trustee’s acceptance of this Indenture and the other Notes Documents and its services hereunder and thereunder. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a
trustee of an express trust. The Issuer and/or the Company shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses Incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, in addition to the compensation for its services.
Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee’s agents, counsel, accountants and experts. The Company, Issuer and the other Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall indemnify the
Trustee or any predecessor Trustee and their directors, officers, employees and agents against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and including taxes (other than taxes based
upon, measured by or determined by the income of the Trustee) Incurred by or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder and under the other Notes Documents, including the costs and
expenses of enforcing this Indenture or Guarantee against the Issuer or any Guarantor (including this Section 7.07) and defending itself against or investigating any claim (whether asserted by the Issuer, any Guarantor, any holder or any other
Person). The obligation to pay such amounts shall survive the payment in full or defeasance of the Notes or the removal or resignation of the Trustee. The Trustee shall notify the Company of any claim for which it may seek indemnity promptly upon
obtaining actual knowledge thereof; provided, however, that any failure so to notify the the Company shall not relieve the Issuer, the Company or any other Guarantor of its indemnity obligations hereunder. The Issuer and/or the Company shall
defend the claim and the indemnified party shall provide reasonable cooperation at the Issuer’s or the Company’s, as applicable, expense in the defense. Such indemnified parties may have separate counsel and the Issuer, the Company and the
other Guarantors, as applicable, shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel; provided, however, that the Issuer, the Company and the other Guarantors, as applicable, shall not be required to pay such fees and expenses if it assumes such
indemnified parties’ defense and, in such indemnified parties’ reasonable judgment, there is no actual or potential conflict of interest between the Issuer, the Company and the other Guarantors, as applicable, and such parties in
connection with such defense. The Issuer, the Company and the other Guarantors, as applicable, need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense Incurred by an indemnified party through such party’s own willful
misconduct, negligence or bad faith. 
 To secure the Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ payment obligations in this Section 7.07,
the Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee other than money or property held in trust to pay principal of and interest on particular Notes. 

The Issuer’s, the Company’s and the other Guarantors’ payment obligations pursuant to this Section 7.07 shall survive the
satisfaction or discharge of this Indenture, any rejection or termination of this Indenture under any bankruptcy law or the resignation or removal of the Trustee. Without prejudice to any other rights available to the Trustee under applicable law,
when the Trustee Incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 6.01(f) or (g) with respect to the Issuer, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under the Bankruptcy Law. 

No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise Incur any financial liability in the
performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not assured to its satisfaction. 

Section 7.08 Replacement of Trustee.

 79

successor Trustee. 
 (c) A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the
Issuer and 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 the holders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the Lien provided for in Section 7.07. 

(d) If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee or the
holders of 10% in principal amount of the Notes may petition at the expense of the Issuer any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 

(e) If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10, unless the Trustee’s duty to resign is stayed as provided in
Section 310(b) of the TIA, any holder who has been a bona fide holder of a Note for at least six months may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee. 

(f) Notwithstanding the replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section, the Issuer’s obligations under Section 7.07 shall
continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation or banking association without any further act
shall be the successor Trustee. 
 In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation to the Trustee
shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver such Notes
so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Trustee;
and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Notes or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have. 

Section 7.10 Eligibility; Disqualification. The Trustee shall at all times satisfy the requirements of Section 310(a) of the TIA.
The Trustee shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $100.0 million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. The Trustee shall comply with Section 310(b) of the TIA, subject to its right to apply for a
stay of its duty to resign under the penultimate paragraph of Section 310(b) of the TIA; provided, however, that there shall be excluded from the operation of Section 310(b)(1) of the TIA any series of securities issued under this
Indenture and any indenture or indentures under which other securities or certificates of interest or participation in other securities of the Issuer are outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in Section 310(b)(1) of the
TIA are met. 
 Section 7.11 Preferential Collection of Claims Against the Issuer. The Trustee shall comply with Section 311(a)
of the TIA, excluding any creditor relationship listed in Section 311(b) of the TIA. A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to Section 311(a) of the TIA to the extent indicated.

Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee or any income thereon or as to preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto and neither the Trustee nor the
Collateral Agent shall be responsible for filing any financing or continuation statements or recording any documents or instruments in any public office at any time or times or otherwise perfecting or maintaining the perfection of any security
interest in the Collateral. Each of the Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which
it accords its own property and shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or diminution in the value of any of the Collateral, by reason of the act or omission of any carrier, forwarding agency or other agent or bailee selected by the Trustee
or the Collateral Agent in good faith. 
 (b) Neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent shall be responsible for the existence,
genuineness or value of any of the Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part
hereunder, for the validity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any agreement or assignment contained therein, for the validity of the title of the Issuer and the Guarantors to the Collateral, for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes,
charges, assessments or Liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral. Subject to Section 7.01 of this Indenture, neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent shall have any duty to ascertain or inquire as to
the performance or observance of any of the terms of this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements, the Collateral Agreement or any Security Documents by the Issuer or the Guarantors.

irrevocable instructions from the Issuer directing the Trustee to apply such funds to the payment thereof at maturity or redemption, as the case may be; provided, that upon any redemption that requires the payment of the Applicable Premium, the
amount deposited shall be sufficient for purposes of this Indenture to the extent that an amount is deposited with the Trustee equal to the Applicable Premium calculated by the Issuer as of the date of the notice of redemption, with any deficit as
of the date of the redemption only required to be deposited with the Trustee on or prior to the date of the redemption; 

(ii) the Issuer and/or the Guarantors have paid all other sums payable under this Indenture; and 

  
 81 








 (iii) the Issuer has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and
an Opinion of Counsel stating that all conditions precedent under this Indenture relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with. 

(b) Subject to Sections 8.01(c) and 8.02, the Issuer at any time may terminate (i) all of its obligations under the Notes and this
Indenture with respect to the holders of the Notes (“legal defeasance option”), and (ii) their obligations under Sections 4.02, 4.03, 4.04, 4.05, 4.06, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13 and 4.15 and the operation of
Section 5.01 for the benefit of the holders of the Notes, and Sections 6.01(c), 6.01(d), 6.01(e), 6.01(f), 6.01(g) (in the case of Sections 6.01 (f) and 6.01(g) with respect to Significant Subsidiaries only), 6.01(h), 6.01(i), 6.01(j) and
6.01(k) (“covenant defeasance option”). The Issuer may exercise its legal defeasance option notwithstanding their prior exercise of its covenant defeasance option. In the event that the Issuer terminates all of its obligations under
the Notes and this Indenture (with respect to such Notes) by exercising its legal defeasance option or its covenant defeasance option, the obligations of each Guarantor with respect to its Guarantee and the Security Documents shall be terminated
simultaneously with the termination of such obligations. 
 If the Issuer exercises its legal defeasance option, payment of the Notes so
defeased may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default. If the Issuer exercises its covenant defeasance option, payment of the Notes so defeased may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in Sections 6.01(c), 6.01(d),
6.01(e), 6.01(f), 6.01(g) (in the case of Sections 6.01(f) and (g), with respect to Significant Subsidiaries only), 6.01(h), 6.01(i) or 6.01(j) or because of the failure of the Issuer to comply with Section 5.01(a)(iv). 

Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein and upon request of the Issuer, the Trustee shall acknowledge in writing the discharge of
those obligations that the Issuer terminates. 
 (c) Notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, the Issuer’s obligations in
Sections 2.04, 2.05, 2.06, 2.07, 2.08 and 2.09 and Article VII, including, without limitation, Sections 7.07 and 7.08 and in this Article VIII and the rights and immunities of the Trustee under this Indenture shall survive until the Notes have been
paid in full. Thereafter, the Issuer’s obligations in Sections 7.07, 7.08, 8.05 and 8.06 and the rights and immunities of the Trustee under this Indenture shall survive such satisfaction and discharge. 

Section 8.02 Conditions to Defeasance. 

(a) The Issuer may exercise its legal defeasance option or its covenant defeasance option only if: 

(i) the Issuer irrevocably deposits in trust with the Trustee cash in U.S. Dollars, U.S. Government Obligations or a
combination thereof sufficient to pay the principal of and premium (if any) and interest on the Notes when due at maturity or redemption, as the case may be; provided, that upon any redemption that requires the payment of the Applicable
Premium, the amount deposited shall be sufficient for purposes of this Indenture to the extent that an amount is deposited with the Trustee equal to the Applicable Premium calculated by the Issuer as of the date of the notice of redemption, with any
deficit as of the date of the redemption only required to be deposited with the Trustee on or prior to the date of the redemption; 

(ii) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee a certificate from a nationally recognized firm of independent accountants expressing
their opinion that the payments of principal and interest when due and without reinvestment on the deposited U.S. Government Obligations plus any deposited money without investment will provide cash at such times and in such amounts as will
be sufficient to pay principal, premium, if any, and interest when due on all the Notes to maturity or redemption, as the case may be; 

(iii) no Default specified in Section 6.01(f) or (g) with respect to the Issuer shall have occurred or is continuing
on the date of such deposit; 

  
 82 








 (iv) the deposit does not constitute a default under any other material agreement
or instrument binding on the Issuer; 
 (v) in the case of the legal defeasance option, the Issuer shall have delivered to
the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that (1) the Issuer has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (2) since the Issue Date there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal
income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the beneficial owners of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such
deposit and defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had not occurred. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Opinion of Counsel required by the immediately preceding sentence with respect to a legal defeasance need not be delivered if all of the Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation (x) have become due and payable or
(y) will become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year under arrangements for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Issuer; 

(vi) such exercise does not 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 therefore or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such holder’s Notes; 

(vii) in the case of the covenant defeasance option, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to
the effect that the beneficial owners of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the
same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had not occurred; and 
 (viii)
the Issuer delivers to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent to the defeasance and discharge of the Notes to be so defeased and discharged as contemplated by this Article VIII
have been complied with. 
 (b) Before or after a deposit, the Issuer may make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the redemption
of such Notes at a future date in accordance with Article III. 
 Section 8.03 Application of Trust Money. The Trustee shall hold in
trust money or U.S. Government Obligations (including proceeds thereof) deposited with it pursuant to this Article VIII. The Trustee shall apply the deposited money and the money from U.S. Government Obligations through each Paying Agent and in
accordance with this Indenture to the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes so discharged or defeased. 
 Section 8.04
Repayment to Issuer. Each of the Trustee and each Paying Agent shall promptly turn over to the Issuer upon request any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in this Article VIII that, in the written opinion of a
nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants delivered to the Trustee (which delivery shall only be required if U.S. Government Obligations have been so deposited), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to
be deposited to effect an equivalent discharge or defeasance in accordance with this Article VIII. 
 Subject to any applicable abandoned
property law, the Trustee and each Paying Agent shall pay to the Issuer upon written request any money held by them for the payment of principal or interest that remains unclaimed for two years, and, thereafter, holders entitled to the money must
look to the Issuer for payment as general creditors, and the Trustee and each Paying Agent shall have no further liability with respect to such monies. 

  
 83 








 Section 8.05 Indemnity for U.S. Government Obligations. The Issuer shall pay and shall
indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against deposited U.S. Government Obligations or the principal and interest received on such U.S. Government Obligations. 

Section 8.06 Reinstatement. If the Trustee or any Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in
accordance with this Article VIII by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Issuer’s obligations under
this Indenture and the Notes so discharged or defeased shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article VIII until such time as the Trustee or any Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or U.S.
Government Obligations in accordance with this Article VIII; provided, however, that, if the Issuer has made any payment of principal of, or interest on, any such Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated
to the rights of the holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or any Paying Agent.

In addition, without the consent of the holders of at least 66.67% in aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, no amendment or waiver may release all or substantially all of the Collateral from the Lien of this Indenture and the

Section 9.03 Revocation and Effect of Consents and Waivers. 

(a) A consent to an amendment or a waiver by a holder of a Note shall bind the holder and every subsequent holder of that Note or portion of
the Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent or waiver is not made on the Note. However, any such holder or subsequent holder may revoke the consent or waiver as to such holder’s
Note or portion of the Note if the Trustee receives the notice of revocation before the date on which the Trustee receives an Officers’ Certificate from the Company and the Issuer certifying that the requisite principal amount of Notes have
consented. After an amendment or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every holder. An amendment or waiver becomes effective upon the (i) receipt by the Issuer, the Company or the Trustee of consents by the holders of the requisite principal
amount of securities, (ii) satisfaction of conditions to effectiveness as set forth in this Indenture and any indenture supplemental hereto containing such amendment or waiver and (iii) execution of such amendment or waiver (or

 (b) The Issuer may, but shall not be
obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the holders entitled to give their consent or take any other action described above or required or permitted to be taken pursuant to this Indenture. If a record date is fixed, then
notwithstanding the immediately preceding paragraph, those Persons who were holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to give such consent or to revoke any consent previously given or
to take any such action, whether or not such Persons continue to be holders after such record date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 120 days after such record date. 

Section 9.04 Notation on or Exchange of Notes. If an amendment, supplement or waiver changes the terms of a Note, the Issuer may
require the holder of the Note to deliver it to the Trustee. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation on the Note regarding the changed terms and return it to the holder. Alternatively, if the Issuer or the Trustee so determine, the Issuer in
exchange for the Note shall issue and, upon written order of the Issuer signed by an Officer, the Trustee shall authenticate a new Note that reflects the changed terms. Failure to make the appropriate notation or to issue a new Note shall not affect
the validity of such amendment, supplement or waiver. 

  
 86 








 Section 9.05 Trustee and Collateral Agent to Sign Amendments. The Trustee and the
Collateral Agent shall sign any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article IX if the amendment does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, if applicable. If
it does, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent may but need not sign it. In signing such amendment, each of the Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to receive indemnity satisfactory to it and shall be provided with, and (subject to
Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon, (i) an Officers’ Certificate, (ii) an Opinion of Counsel stating that such amendment, supplement or waiver is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that such
amendment, supplement or waiver is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuer and any Guarantors, enforceable against them in accordance with its terms, subject to customary exceptions, and complies with the provisions hereof,
(iii) a copy of the resolution of the Board of Directors, certified by the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of the Company and the Issuer, authorizing the execution of such amendment, supplement or waiver and (iv) if such amendment,
supplement or waiver is executed pursuant to Section 9.02, evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the holders required to consent thereto. 

Section 9.06 Additional Voting Terms; Calculation of Principal Amount. All Notes issued under this Indenture shall vote and consent
together on all matters (as to which any of such Notes may vote) as one class and no Notes will have the right to vote or consent as a separate class on any matter. Determinations as to whether holders of the requisite aggregate principal amount of
Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent shall be made in accordance with this Article IX and Section 2.13. 
 Section
9.07 Compliance with the Trust Indenture Act. From the date on which this Indenture is qualified under the TIA, every amendment, waiver or supplement to this Indenture or the Notes shall comply with the TIA as then in effect.

financing statements) and take all other actions as are necessary or required by the Security Documents to maintain (at the sole cost and expense of the Company, the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries) the security interest created by the
Security Documents in the Collateral (other than with respect to any Collateral the security interest in which is not required to be perfected under the Security Documents) as a perfected security interest subject only to Permitted Liens and Liens

Lien Intercreditor Agent, in the case of the Non-ABL Priority Collateral, or the ABL Facility Agent, in the case of the ABL Priority Collateral). Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements, with respect to Mortgaged Properties, the Issuer
and the Guarantors that are Domestic Subsidiaries shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver within 120 days following the Issue Date and the 

  
 88

ABL Priority Collateral), but only to the extent such deliverables (“Deliverables”) were provided to the holders of the First-Priority Obligations or the ABL Obligations in connection with their mortgages on such property, as the
case may be: (i) a policy or policies or marked-up unconditional binder of lender’s title insurance, paid for by the Issuer and the Guarantors, issued by a nationally recognized title insurance company, insuring the Lien of each Mortgage
as a valid Lien on the mortgaged property described therein, free of any title exceptions and other Liens except Permitted Liens, (ii) an as-is survey of the property subject to any such Mortgage certified to the Company, the Issuer, the
Collateral Agent and the title company, meeting minimum standard detail requirements for ALTA/ACSM Land Title Surveys and sufficient for the title insurance company to remove all standard survey exceptions from the title insurance policy relating to
such Mortgage or otherwise reasonably acceptable to the First Lien/Second Lien Intercreditor Agent, (iii) customary opinions of counsel addressing such matters as were addressed in the comparable opinions provided to the holders of
First-Priority Obligations and the ABL Obligations in connection with their mortgages on such property, as the case may be, (iv) evidence of insurance required to be maintained pursuant to the Mortgages and this Indenture, and (v) if

employees, attorneys or agents will be responsible or liable for the existence, genuineness, value or protection of any Collateral, for the legality, enforceability, effectiveness or sufficiency of the Security Documents, for the creation,
perfection, priority, sufficiency or protection of any Lien securing Notes Obligations, or for any defect or deficiency as to any such matters, or for any failure to demand, collect, foreclose or realize upon or otherwise enforce any of the Liens
securing Notes Obligations or the Security Documents or any delay in doing so. 
 (c) The Collateral Agent will be subject to such
directions as may be given it by the Trustee from time to time (as required or permitted by this Indenture); provided that in the event of conflict between directions received pursuant to the Security Documents and directions received
hereunder, the Collateral Agent will be subject to directions received pursuant to the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements. Except as directed by the Trustee as required or permitted by this Indenture (but subject to the
Intercreditor Agreements) and any other representatives or pursuant to the Security Documents, the Collateral Agent will not be obligated: 

(1) to act upon directions purported to be delivered to it by any other Person;

Company or the Issuer (i) Incurs First-Priority Obligations or ABL Obligations at any time when no intercreditor agreement is in effect or at any time when Indebtedness constituting First-Priority Obligations or ABL Obligations entitled to the
benefit of the First Lien/Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement is concurrently retired, and (ii) delivers to the Collateral Agent an Officers’ Certificate so stating and requesting the Collateral Agent to enter into an intercreditor
agreement (on substantially the same terms as the First Lien/Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement) in favor of a designated agent or representative for the holders of the First-Priority Obligations or ABL Obligations so Incurred, the Collateral Agent
shall (and is hereby authorized and directed to) enter into such intercreditor agreement, bind the holders on the terms set forth therein and perform and observe its obligations thereunder. 

(h) At all times when the Trustee is not itself the Collateral Agent, the Issuer and the Guarantors that are Domestic Subsidiaries will
deliver to the Trustee copies of all Security Documents delivered to the Collateral Agent and copies of all documents delivered to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Indenture and the Security Documents. 

Section 11.03 Authorization of Actions to Be Taken. (a) Each holder of Notes, by its acceptance thereof, consents and agrees to

and the Intercreditor Agreements and to perform its obligations and exercise its rights and powers thereunder. 
 (b) The Trustee and the
Collateral Agent are authorized and empowered to receive for the benefit of the holders of Notes any funds collected or distributed under the Security Documents to which the Collateral Agent or Trustee is a party and to make further distributions of
such funds to the holders of Notes according to the provisions of this Indenture. 
 (c) Subject to the provisions of Article VI,
Section 7.01 and Section 7.02 hereof, the Intercreditor Agreements and the Security Documents, upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee may, in its sole discretion and without the consent of the holders,
direct, on behalf of the holders, the Collateral Agent to take all actions it deems necessary or appropriate in order to: 

(1) foreclose upon or otherwise enforce any or all of the Liens securing the Notes Obligations; 

(2) enforce any of the terms of the Security Documents to which the Collateral Agent or Trustee is a party; or 

(3) collect and receive payment of any and all Obligations. 

In addition to the foregoing, the Trustee and/or Collateral Agent may take such actions as shall be necessary or appropriate to provide that
the First-Priority Collateral Agent shall have a lien senior to the Holders with respect to the common Collateral. Without limiting the foregoing, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, may authorize or execute, as applicable, Uniform
Commercial Code assignments or termination statements, mortgage assignment documents or satisfactions and similar documents to enable the lien of record in favor of the First-Priority Collateral Agent to be senior to that of Holders.


  
 90 








 Subject to the Intercreditor Agreements, the Trustee is authorized and empowered to institute and
maintain, or direct the Collateral Agent to institute and maintain, such suits and proceedings as it may deem expedient to protect or enforce the Liens securing the Notes Obligations or the Security Documents to which the Collateral Agent or Trustee
is a party or to prevent any impairment of Collateral by any acts that may be unlawful or in violation of the Security Documents to which the Collateral Agent or Trustee is a party or this Indenture, and such suits and proceedings as the Trustee or
the Collateral Agent may deem expedient to preserve or protect its interests and the interests of the holders of Notes in the Collateral, including power to institute and maintain suits or proceedings to restrain the enforcement of or compliance
with any legislative or other governmental enactment, rule or order that may be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid if the enforcement of, or compliance with, such enactment, rule or order would impair the security interest hereunder or be
prejudicial to the interests of holders, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent. 
 Section 11.04 Release of Liens.
(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Security Documents, Collateral may be released from the Lien and security interest created by the Security Documents to secure the Notes and obligations under this Indenture at any time or
from time to time in accordance with the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreements or as provided hereby. The applicable assets included in the Collateral shall be automatically released from the Liens securing the Notes Obligations, and the
applicable Guarantor shall be automatically released from its obligations under this Indenture and the Security Documents, under any one or more of the following circumstances or any applicable circumstance as provided in the Intercreditor

the Security Documents or (ii) upon the release of such Guarantee pursuant to Section 12.02(b); 
 (3) in respect
of the property and assets of a Subsidiary Guarantor, upon the release or discharge of the Guarantee by such Subsidiary Guarantor in accordance with this Indenture; 

(4) (a) in respect of any property and assets securing First-Priority Obligations, upon the release of the security interests
securing such assets or property securing any First-Priority Obligations, other than in connection with a Discharge of First-Priority Obligations, (b) in respect of any ABL Priority Collateral securing the ABL Obligations, upon the release of
the security interests on such assets securing such ABL Obligations, other than in connection with a Discharge of ABL Obligations and (c) prior to a Discharge of First-Priority Obligations, if there is a mortgage or other lien on any assets in
favor of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent that is not also security for the First-Priority Obligations; 
 (5) pursuant
to an amendment or waiver in accordance with Article IX; and 
 (6) if the Notes have been discharged or defeased pursuant
to Section 8.01. 
 In addition, (i) the security interests granted pursuant to the Security Documents securing the Obligations
shall automatically terminate and/or be released all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any party, and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the applicable Pledgors (as defined in the Collateral Agreement), as of
the date when all the Obligations (other than contingent or unliquidated obligations or liabilities not then due) have been paid in full in cash or immediately available funds; and (ii) the security interests granted pursuant to the Security
Documents securing the Obligations shall automatically terminate as of the date when the holders of at least two thirds in aggregate principal amount of all Notes issued under this Indenture consent to the termination of the Security Documents. 


  
 91 








 In connection with any termination or release pursuant to this Section 11.04(a), the
Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver to any Pledgor (as defined in the Collateral Agreement), at such Pledgor’s expense, all documents that such Pledgor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release (including, without
limitation, UCC termination statements), and will duly assign and transfer to such Pledgor, such of the Pledged Collateral (as defined in the Collateral Agreement) that may be in the possession of the Collateral Agent and has not theretofore been
sold or otherwise applied or released pursuant to this Indenture or the Security Documents. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 11.04(a) shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Collateral Agent. In
connection with any release pursuant to this Section 11.04(a), the Pledgors shall be permitted to take any action in connection therewith consistent with such release including, without limitation, the filing of UCC termination statements. 

Upon the receipt of an Officers’ Certificate from the Company and the Issuer, as described in Section 11.04(b) below, if applicable,
and any necessary or proper instruments of termination, satisfaction or release prepared by the Company and the Issuer, the Collateral Agent shall execute, deliver or acknowledge such instruments or releases to evidence the release of any Collateral
permitted to be released pursuant to this Indenture or the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements. 
 (b) Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, in connection with (x) any release of Collateral pursuant to Section 11.04(a)(2), (3), (5) or (6), such Collateral may not be released from the Lien and security interest created by the Security
Documents and (y) any release of Collateral pursuant to Section 11.04(a)(1) and (4) the Collateral Agent shall not be required to execute, deliver or acknowledge any instruments of termination, satisfaction or release unless, in each
case, an Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel certifying that all conditions precedent, including, without limitation, this Section 11.04, have been met and stating under which of the circumstances set forth in
Section 11.04(a) above the Collateral is being released have been delivered to the Collateral Agent on or prior to the date of such release or, in the case of clause (y) above, the date on which the Collateral Agent executes any such
instrument. 
 (c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, at any time when a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing and the maturity of the Notes has been accelerated (whether by declaration or otherwise) and the Trustee has delivered a notice of acceleration to the Collateral Agent, no release of Collateral pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture
or the Security Documents will be effective as against the holders, except as otherwise provided in the Intercreditor Agreements. 
 Section
11.05 Powers Exercisable by Receiver or Trustee. In case the Collateral shall be in the possession of a receiver or trustee, lawfully appointed, the powers conferred in this Article XI upon the Issuer or the Guarantors with respect to the
release, sale or other disposition of such property may be exercised by such receiver or trustee, and an instrument signed by such receiver or trustee shall be deemed the equivalent of any similar instrument of the Issuer or the Guarantors or of any
officer or officers thereof required by the provisions of this Article XI; and if the Trustee, Collateral Agent or a nominee of the Trustee or Collateral Agent shall be in the possession of the Collateral under any provision of this Indenture, then
such powers may be exercised by the Trustee, Collateral Agent or a nominee of the Trustee or Collateral Agent. 
 Section 11.06 Release
Upon Termination of the Issuer’s Obligations. In the event (i) that the Issuer and the Company deliver to the Trustee, in form and substance acceptable to it, an Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel certifying that all the
obligations under this Indenture, the Notes and the Security Documents have been satisfied and discharged by the payment in full of the Issuer’s obligations under the Notes, this Indenture and the Security Documents, and all such obligations
have been so satisfied, or (ii) a discharge, legal defeasance or covenant defeasance of this Indenture occurs under Article VIII, the Trustee shall deliver to the Issuer, the Company and the Collateral Agent a notice stating that the Trustee,
on behalf of the holders, disclaims and gives up any and all rights it has in or to the Collateral, and any rights it has under the Security Documents, and upon receipt by the Collateral Agent of such notice, the Collateral Agent shall be deemed not
to hold a Lien in the Collateral on behalf of the Trustee and shall do or cause to be done all acts reasonably necessary at the request and expense of the Issuer to release such Lien as soon as is reasonably practicable. 

  
 92 








 Section 11.07 Designations. Except as provided in the next sentence, for purposes of the
provisions hereof and the Intercreditor Agreements requiring the Issuer to designate Indebtedness for the purposes of the terms ABL Obligations, First-Priority Obligations, Other Second-Priority Obligations, Junior Lien Obligations or any other such
designations hereunder or under the Intercreditor Agreements, any such designation shall be sufficient if the relevant designation provides in writing that such ABL Obligations, First-Priority Obligations, Other Second-Priority Obligations or Junior
Lien Obligations are permitted under this Indenture and is signed on behalf of the Issuer by an Officer and delivered to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent. For all purposes hereof and the Intercreditor Agreements, the Issuer hereby designates the
Obligations pursuant to the Credit Agreement as in effect on the date hereof as First-Priority Obligations and as ABL Obligations. 

Section 11.08 Certificates and Opinions. (a) Any release of Collateral permitted by Section 11.04 hereof will be deemed not
to impair the Liens under this Indenture and the Security Documents in contravention thereof and any Person that is required to deliver an officer’s certificate or Opinion of Counsel pursuant to TIA Section 314(d) shall be entitled to rely
upon the foregoing as a basis for delivery of such certificate or opinion. The Trustee may, to the extent permitted by Section 7.01 and 7.02 hereof, accept as conclusive evidence of compliance with the foregoing provisions the appropriate
statements contained in such documents and Opinion of Counsel. 
 (b) If any Collateral is released in accordance with this Indenture, the
Intercreditor Agreements or any Security Document and if the Issuer and the Company have delivered the certificates and documents required by the Security Documents and Section 11.04, the Trustee will determine whether it has received all
documentation required by TIA Section 314(d) in connection with such release and, based on such determination, will, upon request, deliver a certificate to the Collateral Agent setting forth such determination. 

(c) Any certificate or opinion required pursuant to TIA Section 314(d) may be made by an Officer of the Issuer or the Company, except in
cases where Section 314(d) requires that such certificate or opinion be made by an independent engineer, appraiser or other expert. 

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company and its Subsidiaries will not be required to comply with all or any portion
of TIA Section 314(d) if they determine, in good faith based on advice of counsel, that under the terms of that section and/or any interpretation or guidance as to the meaning thereof of the SEC and its staff, including “no
action” letters or exemptive orders, all or any portion of TIA Section 314(d) is inapplicable to the released Collateral. 

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, certain no action letters issued by the SEC have permitted an indenture qualified under the
TIA to contain provisions permitting the release of collateral from Liens under such indenture in the ordinary course of business without requiring the issuer to provide certificates and other documents under TIA Section 314(d). 

ARTICLE XII 
 GUARANTEE

 Section 12.01 Guarantee. 

(a) Each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, on a senior basis, as a primary obligor and not
merely as a surety, to each holder and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns (i) the performance and punctual payment when due, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all obligations of the Issuer under this
Indenture and the Notes, whether for payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest (or Additional Interest, if any) on the Notes and all other monetary obligations of the Issuer under this Indenture and the Notes and (ii) the full and
punctual performance within applicable grace periods of all other obligations of the Issuer whether for fees, expenses, indemnification or otherwise under this Indenture and the Notes, in each case whether allowed or allowable in bankruptcy (all the
foregoing being hereinafter collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”). The Guaranteed Obligations of all Guarantors shall be secured by security interests (subject to Permitted Liens and Liens permitted by Section 4.12)
in the Collateral owned by such Guarantor pursuant to the terms of the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements, including in the case of the Company and Holdings, a security interest (subject to Permitted Liens) in all equity interests
of the Issuer directly, or indirectly, held by the Company and/or Holdings pursuant to the terms of 

  
 93 








 
the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements. Each Guarantor further agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further
assent from any Guarantor, and that each Guarantor shall remain bound under this Article XII notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Guaranteed Obligation. 

(b) Each Guarantor waives presentation to, demand of payment from and protest to the Issuer of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and also
waives notice of protest for nonpayment. Each Guarantor waives notice of any default under the Notes or the Guaranteed Obligations. The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected by (i) the failure of any holder or the
Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Issuer or any other Person under this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement or otherwise; (ii) any extension or renewal of this Indenture, the Notes or
any other agreement; (iii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement; (iv) the release of any security held by any holder or the Trustee for the
Guaranteed Obligations or each Guarantor; (v) the failure of any holder or Trustee to exercise any right or remedy against any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations; or (vi) any change in the ownership of each Guarantor, except as
provided in Section 12.02(b), 12.02(c) and 12.02(d). Each Guarantor hereby waives any right to which it may be entitled to have its obligations hereunder divided among the Guarantors, such that such Guarantor’s obligations would be less
than the full amount claimed. 
 (c) Each Guarantor hereby waives any right to which it may be entitled to have the assets of the Issuer
first be used and depleted as payment of the Issuer’s or such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder prior to any amounts being claimed from or paid by such Guarantor hereunder. Each Guarantor hereby waives any right to which it may be entitled
to require that the Issuer be sued prior to an action being initiated against such Guarantor. 
 (d) Each Guarantor further agrees that its
Guarantee herein constitutes a guarantee of payment, performance and compliance when due (and not a guarantee of collection) and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any holder or the Trustee to any security held for payment of the
Guaranteed Obligations. 
 (e) The Guarantee of each Guarantor is, to the extent and in the manner set forth in Article XII, equal in right
of payment to all existing and future Pari Passu Indebtedness and senior in right of payment to all existing and future Subordinated Indebtedness of such Guarantor. Pursuant to the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements, the security
interests securing the Guarantees will be equal in priority (subject to Permitted Liens and Liens permitted by Section 4.12) to all security interests in the Collateral granted to secure the Other Second-Priority Obligations, second in priority
to all security interests in the Non-ABL Collateral granted to secure the First-Priority Obligations and third in priority to all security interests in the ABL Collateral granted to secure the ABL Obligations. 

(f) Except as expressly set forth in Sections 8.01(b), 12.02 and 12.06, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to
any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever
or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor herein shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise
affected by the failure of any holder or the Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any thereof, by any default, failure or delay,
willful or otherwise, in the performance of the obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or would otherwise operate
as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity. 
 (g) Each Guarantor agrees that its Guarantee shall remain in full force and
effect until payment in full of all the Guaranteed Obligations. Each Guarantor further agrees that its Guarantee herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of
or interest on any Guaranteed Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any holder or the Trustee upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuer or otherwise. 

  
 94 








 (h) In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any holder or
the Trustee has at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Issuer to pay the principal of or interest on any Guaranteed Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration,
by redemption or otherwise, or to perform or comply with any other Guaranteed Obligation, each Guarantor hereby promises to and shall, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustee, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the holders or the
Trustee an amount equal to the sum of (i) the unpaid principal amount of such Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on such Guaranteed Obligations (but only to the extent not prohibited by applicable law) and
(iii) all other monetary obligations of the Issuer to the holders and the Trustee. 
 (i) Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be
entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the holders in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all Guaranteed Obligations. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between it, on the one hand, and
the holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (i) the maturity of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article VI for the purposes of the Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or
other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby, and (ii) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such Guaranteed Obligations as provided in Article VI, such Guaranteed
Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purposes of this Section 12.01. 

(j) Each Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and expenses)
Incurred by the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or any holder in enforcing any rights under this Section 12.01. 
 (k) Upon request of
the Trustee, each Guarantor shall execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purpose of this Indenture. 

(l) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Article XII shall not be applicable in the event that the Guarantee of the Issuer’s obligations
under the Notes or this Agreement by any Guarantor would not be permitted under applicable law, or if a consent is required thereunder and cannot be reasonably obtained in the good faith judgment of the Company. 

Section 12.02 Limitation on Liability. 

(a) Any term or provision of this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum aggregate amount of the Guaranteed Obligations
guaranteed hereunder by each Guarantor shall not exceed the maximum amount that can be hereby guaranteed by the applicable Guarantor without rendering this Indenture, as it relates to such Guarantor, voidable under applicable law relating to
fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally or capital maintenance or corporate benefit rules applicable to guarantees for obligations of affiliates. 

(b) A Guarantee as to any Guarantor that is a party hereto on the Issue Date or the date hereof or that executes a supplemental indenture in
accordance with Section 4.11 hereof and provides a guarantee shall terminate and be of no further force or effect and such Guarantee shall be deemed to be released from all obligations under this Article XII upon: 

(i) the sale, disposition, exchange or other transfer (including through merger, consolidation, amalgamation or otherwise) of
the Capital Stock (including any sale, disposition or other transfer following which the applicable Subsidiary Guarantor is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary), of the applicable Subsidiary Guarantor if such sale, disposition, exchange or other
transfer is made in a manner not in violation of this Indenture; 
 (ii) the designation of such Subsidiary Guarantor as an
Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.04 and the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary”; 

  
 95 








 (iii) the release or discharge of the guarantee by such Subsidiary Guarantor of
the Credit Agreement or the other Indebtedness which resulted in the obligation to guarantee the Notes; 
 (iv) the
Issuer’s exercise of its legal defeasance option or covenant defeasance option under Article VIII or if the Issuer’s obligations under this Indenture are discharged in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; 

(v) such Subsidiary Guarantor ceasing to be a Subsidiary as a result of any foreclosure of any pledge or security interest in
favor of First-Priority Obligations, subject to, in each case, the application of the proceeds of such foreclosure in accordance with Section 11.04; and 

(vi) the occurrence of a Covenant Suspension Event. 

(c) The Company’s Guarantee will be automatically released upon: 

(i) The Company’s transfer of all or substantially all of its assets to, or merger with, an entity that is not a Wholly
Owned Subsidiary of the Company in accordance with Section 5.01(a) and such transferee entity assumes the Company’s obligations under this Indenture; and 

(ii) the Issuer’s exercise of its legal defeasance option or covenant defeasance option under Article VIII or if the
Issuer’s obligations under this Indenture are discharged in accordance with the terms of this Indenture. 
 Section 12.03
[Intentionally Omitted]. 
 Section 12.04 Successors and Assigns. This Article XII shall be binding upon each Guarantor and
its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Trustee and the holders and, in the event of any transfer or assignment of rights by any holder or the Trustee, the rights and privileges conferred upon
that party in this Indenture and in the Notes shall automatically extend to and be vested in such transferee or assignee, all subject to the terms and conditions of this Indenture. 

Section 12.05 No Waiver. Neither a failure nor a delay on the part of either the Trustee or the holders in exercising any right, power
or privilege under this Article XII shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any right, power or privilege. The rights, remedies and benefits of the Trustee and the
holders herein expressly specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights, remedies or benefits which either may have under this Article XII at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise. 

Section 12.06 Modification. No modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Article XII, nor the consent to any departure
by any Guarantor therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Trustee, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No
notice to or demand on any Guarantor in any case shall entitle any Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances. 

Section 12.07 Execution of Supplemental Indenture for Future Guarantors. Each Subsidiary which is required to become a Subsidiary
Guarantor of the Notes pursuant to Section 4.11 shall promptly execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture in the form of Exhibit D hereto pursuant to which such Subsidiary shall become a Subsidiary Guarantor under this Article
XII and shall guarantee the Notes. Concurrently with the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture, the Issuer and the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel and an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such
supplemental indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Subsidiary and that, subject to the application of bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or transfer and other similar laws relating to
creditors’ rights generally and to the principles of equity, whether considered in a proceeding at law or in equity, the Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor is a valid and binding obligation of such Subsidiary Guarantor, enforceable against
such Subsidiary Guarantor in accordance with its terms and/or to such other matters as the Trustee may reasonably request. 

  
 96

affect or impair the validity thereof.

 Exhibit A-5 








 [FORM OF REVERSE SIDE OF INITIAL NOTE] 

10.000% Second-Priority Senior Secured Note Due 2021 

1. Interest  
 DS SERVICES OF AMERICA,
INC. (successor to CRESTVIEW DS MERGER SUB II, INC.), a Delaware corporation (such entity, and its successors and assigns under the Indenture, being herein called, the “Issuer”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of
this Note at the rate per annum shown above; provided, however, that if a Registration Default (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) occurs, Additional Interest will accrue on this Note at a rate of 0.25% per annum
(increasing by an additional 0.25% per annum after each consecutive 90-day period that occurs after the date on which such Registration Default occurs up to a maximum Additional Interest rate of 1.00%) from and including the date on which any
such Registration Default shall occur to but excluding the earlier of (x) the date on which all Registration Defaults have been cured and (y) the date which is two years from the Issue Date. The Issuer shall pay interest semiannually on
March 1 and September 1 of each year (each an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing March 1, 2014. Interest on the Notes shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for or,
if no interest has been paid or duly provided for, from August 30, 2013, until the principal hereof is due. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. The Issuer shall pay interest on overdue principal at
the rate borne by the Notes, and it shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest at the same rate to the extent lawful. Notwithstanding anything else contained herein, the Issuer may cause any other Person to make any interest payment at
its discretion. 
 2. Method of Payment  

The Issuer shall pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered holders at the close of business on
February 15 or August 15 (each a “Record Date”) immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date even if Notes are canceled after the Record Date and on or before the Interest Payment Date (whether or not a Business Day).
Holders must surrender Notes to the Paying Agent to collect principal payments. The Issuer shall pay principal, premium, if any, and interest in money of the United States of America that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public
and private debts. Payments in respect of the Notes represented by a Global Note (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by The Depository Trust
Company or any successor depository. The Issuer shall make all payments in respect of a certificated Note (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) at the office of the Paying Agent, except that, at the option of the Issuer, payment of
interest may be made by mailing a check to the registered address of each holder thereof; provided, however, that payments on the Notes may also be made, in the case of a holder of at least $1,000,000 aggregate principal amount of
Notes, 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 Paying Agent to such effect designating such account
no later than 30 days immediately preceding the relevant due date for payment (or such other date as the Trustee may accept in its discretion). 
 3.
Paying Agent and Registrar  
 Initially, Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee under the Indenture (the
“Trustee”), will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Issuer may appoint and change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice. The Company or any of its domestically incorporated Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or
Registrar. 
 4. Indenture  
 The Issuer
issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of the Issue Date (the “Indenture”), among Cott Corporation, the Issuer, the other Guarantors party thereto and the Trustee. Capitalized terms used herein are used as defined in the
Indenture, unless otherwise indicated. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S.C. §§ 77aaa-77bbbb) as in effect on the date
of the Indenture (the “TIA”). The Notes are subject to all terms and provisions of the 

  
 Exhibit A-6 








 
Indenture, and the holders (as defined in the Indenture) are referred to the Indenture for a statement of such terms and provisions. If and to the extent that any provision of the Notes limits,
qualifies or conflicts with a provision of the Indenture, such provision of the Indenture shall control. 
 The Notes are senior secured
obligations of the Issuer. This Note is one of the Initial Notes referred to in the Indenture. The Notes include the Initial Notes and any Additional Notes. The Initial Notes and any Additional Notes are treated as a single class of securities under
the Indenture. The Indenture imposes certain limitations on the ability of the Company, the Issuer and their Restricted Subsidiaries to, among other things, make certain Investments and other Restricted Payments, pay dividends and other
distributions, Incur Indebtedness, enter into consensual restrictions upon the payment of certain dividends and distributions by such Restricted Subsidiaries, issue or sell shares of capital stock of the Company, the Issuer and such Restricted
Subsidiaries, enter into or permit certain transactions with Affiliates, create or Incur Liens and make Asset Sales. The Indenture also imposes limitations on the ability of the Issuer and each Guarantor to consolidate or merge with or into any
other Person or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of its property. 
 To guarantee the due and punctual payment of the
principal and interest on the Notes and all other amounts payable by the Issuer under the Indenture and the Notes when and as the same shall be due and payable, whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, according to the terms of the Notes
and the Indenture, the Guarantors have unconditionally guaranteed the Guaranteed Obligations pursuant to the terms of the Indenture and any Guarantor that executes a Guarantee will unconditionally guarantee the Guaranteed Obligations, on a senior
secured basis pursuant to the terms of the Indenture. 
 5. Redemption  

On or after September 1, 2017 the Issuer may redeem the Notes at its option, in whole at any time or in part from time to time,
upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice mailed by first-class mail, or delivered electronically if held by DTC, to each holder’s registered address, at the following redemption prices (expressed as a percentage of
principal amount), plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, to the redemption date (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date),
if redeemed during the 12-month period commencing on September 1 of the years set forth below:

time or in part from time to time, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice mailed by first-class mail, or delivered electronically if held by DTC, to each holder’s registered address, at a redemption price equal to 100%
of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, to, the applicable redemption date (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant
Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date). 
 Notice of any redemption upon any Equity Offering may be
given prior to the completion thereof. In addition, any such redemption described above or notice thereof may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of the related
Equity Offering in the case of a redemption upon completion of an Equity Offering. 
 Notwithstanding anything else contained herein, the
Issuer may cause any other Person to make any redemption payment at its discretion.

The Issuer will not be required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes. 

  
 Exhibit A-7 








 7. Notice of Redemption  

Notices of redemption will be mailed by first class mail at least 30 but not more than 60 days before the redemption date, to each holder of
Notes to be redeemed at its registered address (with a copy to the Trustee) or otherwise in accordance with the procedures of DTC, except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to the redemption date if the notice is issued in
connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture pursuant to Article VIII thereof. If money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued and unpaid interest on all Notes (or portions thereof) to be
redeemed on the redemption date is deposited with a Paying Agent on or before the redemption date and certain other conditions are satisfied, on and after such date, interest ceases to accrue on such Notes (or such portions thereof) called for
redemption. 
 8. Repurchase of Notes at the Option of the Holders upon Change of Control and Asset Sales  

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each holder shall have the right, subject to certain conditions specified in the Indenture, to
cause the Company and the Issuer to repurchase all or any part of such holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase (subject
to the right of the holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date), as provided in, and subject to the terms of, the Indenture. 

In accordance with Section 4.06 of the Indenture, the Company and the Issuer will be required to offer to purchase Notes upon the

endorsements or transfer documents and to pay any taxes required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Registrar need not register the transfer of or exchange any Notes selected for redemption (except, in the case of a Note to be redeemed in
part, the portion of the Note not to be redeemed) or to transfer or exchange any Notes for a period of 15 days prior to a selection of Notes to be redeemed. 

10. Persons Deemed Owners  
 The
registered holder of this Note shall be treated as the owner of it for all purposes. 
 11. Unclaimed Money  

If money for the payment of principal or interest remains unclaimed for two years, the Trustee and a Paying Agent shall pay the money back to
the Issuer at its written request unless an abandoned property law designates another Person. After any such payment, the holders entitled to the money must look to the Issuer for payment as general creditors and the Trustee and a Paying Agent shall
have no further liability with respect to such monies. 
 12. Discharge and Defeasance  

Subject to certain conditions, the Issuer at any time may terminate some of or all its obligations under the Notes and the Indenture if the
Issuer deposits with the Trustee money or U.S. Government Obligations for the payment of principal and interest on the Notes to redemption or maturity, as the case may be. 

13. Amendment; Waiver

certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, (i) the Indenture or the Notes may be amended with the written consent of the holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding and (ii) any past
default or compliance with any provisions may be waived with the written consent of the holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding. Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the


  
 Exhibit A-8 








 
Indenture, without the consent of any holder, the Issuer, the Company and the Trustee may amend the Indenture, the Notes, the Guarantees, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements
(i) to cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency; (ii) to provide for the assumption by a Successor Company (with respect to the Issuer) of the obligations of the Issuer under the Indenture and the Notes; (iii) to
provide for the assumption by a Successor Subsidiary Guarantor (with respect to any Subsidiary Guarantor), as the case may be, of the obligations of a Subsidiary Guarantor under the Indenture, its Guarantee and the Security Documents; (iv) to
provide for the assumption by a Successor Company (with respect to the Company) of the obligations of the Company under the Indenture and its Guarantee; (v) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes,

Code; (vi) to conform the text of the Indenture, the Notes, the Guarantees, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements to any provision of the “Description of Notes” in the Offering Memorandum to the extent that such
provision of the Indenture, the Notes, the Guarantees, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements were intended by the Issuer to be a verbatim recitation of a provision of the “Description of Notes” in the Offering Memorandum
as applicable, as stated in an Officers’ Certificate of the Issuer and the Company; (viii) to add a Guarantee with respect to the Notes; (ix) to add Collateral to secure the Notes; (x) to release Collateral or a Guarantee as

material respect; or (xv) to make changes to provide for the issuance of Additional Notes or Exchange Notes. 
 In addition, the

First-Priority Obligations or other Junior Lien Obligations to effectuate such entry into the Intercreditor Agreements and to make the lien of such class equal and ratable with, as applicable, the lien of the Other Second-Priority Obligations,
First-Priority Obligations or other Junior Lien Obligations. 
 14. Defaults and Remedies  

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default relating to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company or
the Issuer) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of outstanding Notes by notice to the Company or the Issuer may declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued but unpaid interest on all
the Notes to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal and interest will be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default relating to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company or the Issuer
occurs, the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on all the Notes will become immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any holders. Under certain circumstances, the holders of a majority
in principal amount of outstanding Notes may rescind any such acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences. 
 If an Event of
Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under the Indenture at the request or direction of any of the holders unless such holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or
security satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense and certain other conditions are complied with. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium (if any) or interest when due, no holder may pursue any
remedy with respect to the Indenture or the Notes unless (i) such holder has previously given the Trustee notice that an Event of Default is continuing, (ii) holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes have
requested the Trustee to pursue the remedy, (iii) such holders have offered the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense, (iv) 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 (v) the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day
period. Subject to certain restrictions, the holders of a majority in principal amount of 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 

  
 Exhibit A-9 








 
the Trustee. The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or the Indenture or that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other
holder or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability. Prior to taking any action under the Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification reasonably satisfactory to it against all losses, liabilities and expenses caused by
taking or not taking such action. 
 15. Trustee Dealings with the Issuer  

Subject to certain limitations imposed by the TIA, the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the
owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with and collect obligations owed to it by the Issuer or its Affiliates and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. 

16. No Recourse Against Others  
 No
director, officer, employee, manager, incorporator or holder of any Equity Interests in the Issuer or any Guarantor or any direct or indirect parent companies, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer or any Guarantor under
the Notes, the Indenture or the Guarantees, as applicable, or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each holder of Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. 

17. Authentication  
 This Note shall not
be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee (or an authenticating agent) manually signs the certificate of authentication on the other side of this Note. 

18. Abbreviations  
 Customary
abbreviations may be used in the name of a holder or an assignee, such as TEN COM (=tenants in common), TEN ENT (=tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (=joint tenants with rights of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (=custodian), and
U/G/M/A (=Uniform Gift to Minors Act). 
 19. Holders Compliance with Registration Rights Agreement  

Each holder of a Note, by acceptance hereof, acknowledges and agrees to the provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement, including the
obligations of the holders with respect to a registration and the indemnification of the Issuer to the extent provided therein. 
 20. Governing Law 

 THIS SECURITY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF
CONFLICTS OF LAW. 
 21. CUSIP Numbers; ISINs  

The Issuer has caused CUSIP numbers and ISINs to be printed on the Notes and have directed the Trustee to use CUSIP numbers and ISINs in
notices of redemption as a convenience to the 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 Issuer will furnish to any holder of Notes upon written request and without charge to the
holder a copy of the Indenture which has in it the text of this Note.

 [FORM OF REVERSE SIDE OF EXCHANGE NOTE] 

10.000% Second-Priority Senior Secured Note Due 2021 

1. Interest 
 DS SERVICES OF AMERICA, INC.
(formerly known as DS WATERS OF AMERICA, INC.), a Delaware corporation (such entity, and its successors and assigns under the Indenture, being herein called, the “Issuer”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this
Note at the rate per annum shown above; [provided, however, that if a Registration Default (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) occurs, Additional Interest will accrue on this Note at a rate of 0.25% per annum
(increasing by an additional 0.25% per annum after each consecutive 90-day period that occurs after the date on which such Registration Default occurs up to a maximum Additional Interest rate of 1.00%) from and including the date on which any
such Registration Default shall occur to but excluding the earlier of (x) the date on which all Registration Defaults have been cured and (y) the date which is two years from the Issue
Date]1. The Issuer shall pay interest semiannually on March 1 and September 1 of each year (each an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing March 1, 2014. Interest on
the Notes shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for or, if no interest has been paid or duly provided for, from August 30, 2013, until the principal hereof is due. Interest shall be computed on
the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. The Issuer shall pay interest on overdue principal at the rate borne by the Notes, and it shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest at the same rate to the extent lawful.
Notwithstanding anything else contained herein, the Issuer may cause any other Person to make any interest payment at its discretion. 
 2. Method of
Payment  
 The Issuer shall pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered holders at the close
of business on February 15 or August 15 (each a “Record Date”) immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date even if Notes are canceled after the Record Date and on or before the Interest Payment Date (whether or not a
Business Day). Holders must surrender Notes to the Paying Agent to collect principal payments. The Issuer shall pay principal, premium, if any, and interest in money of the United States of America that at the time of payment is legal tender for
payment of public and private debts. Payments in respect of the Notes represented by a Global Note (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by The
Depository Trust Company or any successor depository. The Issuer shall make all payments in respect of a certificated Note (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) at the office of the Paying Agent, except that, at the option of the
Issuer, payment of interest may be made by mailing a check to the registered address of each holder thereof; provided, however, that payments on the Notes may also be made, in the case of a holder of at least $1,000,000 aggregate
principal amount of Notes, 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 Paying Agent to such effect
designating such account no later than 30 days immediately preceding the relevant due date for payment (or such other date as the Trustee may accept in its discretion). 

3. Paying Agent and Registrar  

Initially, Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee under the Indenture (the “Trustee”), will act as Paying Agent
and Registrar. The Issuer may appoint and change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice. The Company or any of its domestically incorporated Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar. 

4. Indenture  
 The Issuer issued the
Notes under an Indenture dated as of the [Issue Date] (the “Indenture”), among the Issuer, the Guarantors party thereto and the Trustee. Capitalized terms used herein are used as defined in the 

 

	1 	 Insert if at the date of issuance of the Exchange Note any Registration Default has occurred with respect to the related Initial Notes during the
interest period in which such date of issuance occurs. 



  
 Exhibit B-4 








 
Indenture, unless otherwise indicated. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S.C.
§§ 77aaa-77bbbb) as in effect on the date of the Indenture (the “TIA”). The Notes are subject to all terms and provisions of the Indenture, and the holders (as defined in the Indenture) are referred to the Indenture for a
statement of such terms and provisions. If and to the extent that any provision of the Notes limits, qualifies or conflicts with a provision of the Indenture, such provision of the Indenture shall control. 

The Notes are senior secured obligations of the Issuer. This Note is one of the Initial Notes referred to in the Indenture. The Notes include
the Initial Notes and any Additional Notes. The Initial Notes and any Additional Notes are treated as a single class of securities under the Indenture. The Indenture imposes certain limitations on the ability of the Company, the Issuer and their
Restricted Subsidiaries to, among other things, make certain Investments and other Restricted Payments, pay dividends and other distributions, Incur Indebtedness, enter into consensual restrictions upon the payment of certain dividends and
distributions by such Restricted Subsidiaries, issue or sell shares of capital stock of the Company, the Issuer and such Restricted Subsidiaries, enter into or permit certain transactions with Affiliates, create or Incur Liens and make Asset Sales.
The Indenture also imposes limitations on the ability of the Issuer and each Guarantor to consolidate or merge with or into any other Person or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of its property. 

To guarantee the due and punctual payment of the principal and interest on the Notes and all other amounts payable by the Issuer under the
Indenture and the Notes when and as the same shall be due and payable, whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, according to the terms of the Notes and the Indenture, the Guarantors have unconditionally guaranteed the Guaranteed
Obligations pursuant to the terms of the Indenture and any Guarantor that executes a Guarantee will unconditionally guarantee the Guaranteed Obligations, on a senior secured basis pursuant to the terms of the Indenture. 

5. Redemption  
 On or after
September 1, 2017 the Issuer may redeem the Notes at its option, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice mailed by first-class mail, or delivered electronically if held
by DTC, to each holder’s registered address, at the following redemption prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount), plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, to the redemption date (subject to the
right of holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date), if redeemed during the 12-month period commencing on September 1 of the years set forth below: 

 

					
	 Period
	  	Redemption Price	 
	 2017
	  	 	105.000	% 
	 2018
	  	 	102.500	% 
	 2019 and thereafter
	  	 	100.000	% 

 In addition, prior to September 1, 2017, the Issuer may redeem the Notes at its option, in whole at any
time or in part from time to time, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice mailed by first-class mail, or delivered electronically if held by DTC, to each holder’s registered address, at a redemption price equal to 100%
of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, to, the applicable redemption date (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant
Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date). 
 Notice of any redemption upon any Equity Offering may be
given prior to the completion thereof. In addition, any such redemption described above or notice thereof may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of the related
Equity Offering in the case of a redemption upon completion of an Equity Offering. 
 Notwithstanding anything else contained herein, the
Issuer may cause any other Person to make any redemption payment at its discretion. 

  
 Exhibit B-5 








 6. Mandatory Redemption  

The Issuer will not be required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes. 

7. Notice of Redemption  
 Notices of
redemption will be mailed by first class mail at least 30 but not more than 60 days before the redemption date, to each holder of Notes to be redeemed at its registered address (with a copy to the Trustee) or otherwise in accordance with the
procedures of DTC, except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to the redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture pursuant to Article
VIII thereof. If money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued and unpaid interest on all Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed on the redemption date is deposited with a Paying Agent on or before the redemption date and certain
other conditions are satisfied, on and after such date, interest ceases to accrue on such Notes (or such portions thereof) called for redemption. 
 8.
Repurchase of Notes at the Option of the Holders upon Change of Control and Asset Sales  
 Upon the occurrence of a Change of
Control, each holder shall have the right, subject to certain conditions specified in the Indenture, to cause the Company and the Issuer to repurchase all or any part of such holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the
principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase (subject to the right of the holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date), as provided in,
and subject to the terms of, the Indenture. 
 In accordance with Section 4.06 of the Indenture, the Company and the Issuer will be
required to offer to purchase Notes upon the occurrence of certain events. 
 9. Denominations; Transfer; Exchange  

The Notes are in registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $2,000 principal amount and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess
thereof. A holder shall register the transfer of or exchange of the Notes in accordance with the Indenture. Upon any registration of transfer or exchange, the Registrar and the Trustee may require a holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate
endorsements or transfer documents and to pay any taxes required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Registrar need not register the transfer of or exchange any Notes selected for redemption (except, in the case of a Note to be redeemed in
part, the portion of the Note not to be redeemed) or to transfer or exchange any Notes for a period of 15 days prior to a selection of Notes to be redeemed. 

10. Persons Deemed Owners  
 The
registered holder of this Note shall be treated as the owner of it for all purposes. 
 11. Unclaimed Money  

If money for the payment of principal or interest remains unclaimed for two years, the Trustee and a Paying Agent shall pay the money back to
the Issuer at its written request unless an abandoned property law designates another Person. After any such payment, the holders entitled to the money must look to the Issuer for payment as general creditors and the Trustee and a Paying Agent shall
have no further liability with respect to such monies. 
 12. Discharge and Defeasance  

Subject to certain conditions, the Issuer at any time may terminate some of or all its obligations under the Notes and the Indenture if the
Issuer deposits with the Trustee money or U.S. Government Obligations for the payment of principal and interest on the Notes to redemption or maturity, as the case may be. 

13. Amendment; Waiver  
 Subject to
certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, (i) the Indenture or the Notes may be amended with the written consent of the holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding


  
 Exhibit B-6 








 
and (ii) any past default or compliance with any provisions may be waived with the written consent of the holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding.
Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, without the consent of any holder, the Company, the Issuer and the Trustee may amend the Indenture, the Notes, the Guarantees, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements
(i) to cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency; (ii) to provide for the assumption by a Successor Company (with respect to the Issuer) of the obligations of the Issuer under the Indenture and the Notes; (iii) to
provide for the assumption by a Successor Subsidiary Guarantor (with respect to any Subsidiary Guarantor), as the case may be, of the obligations of a Subsidiary Guarantor under the Indenture, its Guarantee and the Security Documents; (iv) to
provide for the assumption by a Successor Company (with respect to the Company ) of the obligations of the Company under the Indenture and its Guarantee; (v) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes,
provided, however, 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;
(vi) to conform the text of the Indenture, the Notes, the Guarantees, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements to any provision of the “Description of Notes” in the Offering Memorandum to the extent that such provision
of the Indenture, the Notes, the Guarantees, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements were intended by the Issuer to be a verbatim recitation of a provision of the “Description of Notes” in the Offering Memorandum as
applicable, as stated in an Officers’ Certificate of the Issuer and the Company; (viii) to add a Guarantee with respect to the Notes; (ix) to add Collateral to secure the Notes; (x) to release Collateral or a Guarantee as
permitted by the Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements; (xi) to add additional secured creditors holding Other Second-Priority Obligations, First-Priority Obligations or other Junior Lien Obligation, so long as such
obligations are not prohibited by the Indenture or the Security Documents; (xii) to add to the covenants of the Company or the Issuer for the benefit of the holders or to surrender any right or power herein conferred upon the Company or the
Issuer; (xiii) to comply with any requirement of the SEC in connection with qualifying or maintaining the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA; (xiv) to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any holder in any
material respects; or (xv) to make changes to provide for the issuance of Additional Notes or Exchange Notes. 
 In addition, the
Intercreditor Agreements may be amended without the consent of any holder or the Trustee in connection with the permitted entry into the Intercreditor Agreements of any class of additional secured creditors holding Other Second-Priority Obligations,
First-Priority Obligations or other Junior Lien Obligations to effectuate such entry into the Intercreditor Agreements and to make the lien of such class equal and ratable with, as applicable, the lien of the Other Second-Priority Obligations,
First-Priority Obligations or other Junior Lien Obligations. 
 14. Defaults and Remedies  

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default relating to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company or
the Issuer) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of outstanding Notes by notice to the Company or the Issuer may declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued but unpaid interest on all
the Notes to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal and interest will be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default relating to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company or the Issuer
occurs, the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on all the Notes will become immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any holders. Under certain circumstances, the holders of a majority
in principal amount of outstanding Notes may rescind any such acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences. 
 If an Event of
Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under the Indenture at the request or direction of any of the holders unless such holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or
security satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense and certain other conditions are complied with. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium (if any) or interest when due, no holder may pursue any
remedy with respect to the Indenture or the Notes unless (i) such holder has previously given the Trustee notice that an Event of Default is continuing, (ii) holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes have
requested the Trustee to pursue the remedy, (iii) such holders have offered the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense, (iv) 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 (v) the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day
period. Subject to certain restrictions, the holders of a 

  
 Exhibit B-7 








 
majority in principal amount of 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 the Indenture or that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other holder or that would
involve the Trustee in personal liability. Prior to taking any action under the Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification reasonably satisfactory to it against all losses, liabilities and expenses caused by taking or not taking
such action. 
 15. Trustee Dealings with the Issuer  

Subject to certain limitations imposed by the TIA, the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the
owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with and collect obligations owed to it by the Issuer or its Affiliates and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. 

16. No Recourse Against Others  
 No
director, officer, employee, manager, incorporator or holder of any Equity Interests in the Issuer or any Guarantor or any direct or indirect parent companies, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer or any Guarantor under
the Notes, the Indenture or the Guarantees, as applicable, or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each holder of Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. 

17. Authentication  
 This Note shall not
be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee (or an authenticating agent) manually signs the certificate of authentication on the other side of this Note. 

18. Abbreviations  
 Customary
abbreviations may be used in the name of a holder or an assignee, such as TEN COM (=tenants in common), TEN ENT (=tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (=joint tenants with rights of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (=custodian), and
U/G/M/A (=Uniform Gift to Minors Act). 
 19. Governing Law  

THIS SECURITY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF
CONFLICTS OF LAW. 
 20. CUSIP Numbers; ISINs  

The Issuer has caused CUSIP numbers and ISINs to be printed on the Notes and have directed the Trustee to use CUSIP numbers and ISINs in
notices of redemption as a convenience to the 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 Issuer will furnish to any holder of Notes upon written request and without charge to the
holder a copy of the Indenture which has in it the text of this Note.

merits and risks of our investment in the Notes, and we invest in or purchase securities similar to the Notes in the normal course of our business. We, and any accounts for which we are acting, are each able to bear the economic risk of our or its
investment. 
 2. We understand that the Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act and, unless so registered, may not be sold
except as permitted in the following sentence. We agree on our own behalf and on behalf of any investor account for which we are purchasing Notes to offer, sell or otherwise transfer such Notes prior to the date that is one year after the later of
the date of original issue and the last date on which either the Issuer or any affiliate of the Issuer was the owner of such Notes (or any predecessor thereto) (the “Resale Restriction Termination Date”) only (a) in the United
States to a person whom we reasonably believe is a qualified institutional buyer (as defined in rule 144A under the Securities Act) in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144A, (b) outside the United States in an offshore transaction
in accordance with Rule 904 of Regulation S under the Securities Act, (c) pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act provided by Rule 144 thereunder (if applicable) or (d) pursuant to an effective registration
statement under the Securities Act, in each of cases (a) through (d) in accordance with any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States. In addition, we will, and each subsequent holder is required to, notify any purchaser
of the Note evidenced hereby of the resale restrictions set forth above. The foregoing restrictions on resale will not apply subsequent to the Resale Restriction Termination Date. If any resale or other transfer of the Notes is proposed to be made
to an institutional “accredited investor” prior to the Resale Restriction Termination Date, the transferor shall deliver a letter from the transferee substantially in the form of this letter to the Issuer and the Trustee, which
shall provide, among other things, that the transferee is an institutional “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act


  
 Exhibit C-1 








 
and that it is acquiring such Notes for investment purposes and not for distribution in violation of the Securities Act. Each purchaser acknowledges that the Issuer and the Trustee reserve the
right prior to the offer, sale or other transfer prior to the Resale Restriction Termination Date of the Notes pursuant to clause 1(b), 1(c) or 1(d) above to require the delivery of an opinion of counsel, certifications or other information
satisfactory to the Issuer and the Trustee.
