**Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.**

On September 11, 2025, NCL Corporation Ltd. ("NCLC"), a subsidiary of Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd. ("NCLH"), closed its previously announced private offering (the "Exchangeable Notes Offering") of $1,407.0 million aggregate principal amount of 0.750% exchangeable senior notes due 2030 (the "Exchangeable Notes"), which includes $107.0 million aggregate principal amount of Exchangeable Notes issued in connection with the initial purchasers' full exercise of their option to acquire additional Exchangeable Notes. The Exchangeable Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated September 11, 2025, by and among NCLC, as issuer, NCLH, as guarantor, and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee (the "Exchangeable Notes Indenture"). The Exchangeable Notes will be guaranteed by NCLH on a senior unsecured basis.

In connection with the Exchangeable Notes Offering, NCLC received gross proceeds of $1,407.0 million and net proceeds, after deducting the initial purchasers' discount but before deducting estimated fees and expenses, of approximately $1,381.4 million. NCLC used the net proceeds from the Exchangeable Notes Offering, together with the proceeds from the Equity Offering (as defined below) and cash on hand, to repurchase (the "Repurchases") (through its agent) approximately $958.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 1.125% exchangeable senior notes due 2027 (the "2027 1.125% Exchangeable Notes") for approximately $1,009.5 million and approximately $449.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 2.50% exchangeable senior notes due 2027 (collectively with the 2027 1.125% Exchangeable Notes, the "2027 Exchangeable Notes") for approximately $480.5 million, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the repurchase date.

Interest on the Exchangeable Notes will accrue from September 11, 2025 and is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning on March 15, 2026, at a rate of 0.750% per year. The Exchangeable Notes will mature on September 15, 2030 (the "Exchangeable Notes Maturity Date") unless earlier exchanged, redeemed or repurchased.

Holders may exchange all or a portion of the Exchangeable Notes at the holder's option (i) at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding March 15, 2030, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions and during certain periods, and (ii) on or after March 15, 2030 until the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the Exchangeable Notes Maturity Date, regardless of whether such conditions have been met. Upon exchange of the Exchangeable Notes, NCLC will satisfy its exchange obligation by paying cash up to the aggregate principal amount of the Exchangeable Notes to be exchanged and paying or delivering, as the case may be, cash, ordinary shares of NCLH ("ordinary shares") or a combination of cash and ordinary shares, at NCLC's election, in respect of the remainder, if any, of NCLC's exchange obligation in excess of the aggregate principal amount of the Exchangeable Notes to be exchanged. The initial exchange rate per $1,000 principal amount of Exchangeable Notes is 29.1189 ordinary shares, which is equivalent to an initial exchange price of approximately $34.34 per ordinary share, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. The initial exchange price represents a premium of approximately 40.0% above the offering price in the Equity Offering.

On or after September 20, 2028, NCLC may redeem for cash all or part of the Exchangeable Notes, at its option, if the last reported sale price of ordinary shares has been at least 130% of the exchange price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which NCLC provides notice of an optional redemption at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Exchangeable Notes to be redeemed, *plus* accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the optional redemption date. If NCLC elects to redeem fewer than all of the outstanding Exchangeable Notes, at least $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of Exchangeable Notes must be outstanding and not subject to optional redemption as of the relevant optional redemption date. NCLC may also redeem the Exchangeable Notes, in whole but not in part, following the occurrence of certain tax law changes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Exchangeable Notes to be redeemed, *plus* accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date.

Upon the occurrence of a "fundamental change," which term includes certain change of control transactions, NCLC must offer to repurchase the Exchangeable Notes at a price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the date of repurchase. In addition, if certain corporate events occur prior to the Exchangeable Notes Maturity Date or if NCLC delivers a notice of tax redemption or notice of optional redemption, NCLC will, in certain circumstances, increase the exchange rate for a holder who elects to exchange its Exchangeable Notes in connection with such corporate event, notice of tax redemption or notice of optional redemption, as the case may be.

The Exchangeable Notes Indenture contains customary covenants and events of default.

The foregoing summary of the Exchangeable Notes Indenture and the Exchangeable Notes does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Exchangeable Notes Indenture and form of Exchangeable Note, which are attached as Exhibit 4.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K (this "Current Report") and incorporated herein by reference.

**Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.**

**Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.**

The information set forth in Item 1.01 above is incorporated into this Item 3.02 by reference.

NCLC offered and sold the Exchangeable Notes to the initial purchasers in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and for resale by the initial purchasers to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144A under the Securities Act. The Exchangeable Notes, the related guarantee of NCLH and the ordinary shares issuable upon the exchange of the Exchangeable Notes, if any, will not be registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state laws.

**Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.**

On September 11, 2025, NCLH made available a presentation discussing the Transactions (as defined below). A copy of the presentation is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report.

In connection with the Equity Offering, NCLH entered into individually negotiated share purchase agreements with certain institutional investors holding the 2027 Exchangeable Notes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Holdings hereby appoints you, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, as exclusive placement agent ("<u>J.P. Morgan</u>" or the "<u>Placement Agent</u>"), and you hereby accept such appointment and agree to act as exclusive placement agent and to solicit offers from Purchasers to participate in Share Purchases, and Holdings hereby authorizes you to act on its behalf in accordance with this Agreement. It is understood and agreed that you will act under this Agreement as an independent contractor with duties solely to Holdings and nothing in this Agreement or the nature of your services in connection with this engagement or otherwise shall be deemed to create a fiduciary duty or fiduciary or agency relationship between you and Holdings or its shareholders, employees or creditors, and Holdings agrees that it shall not make, and hereby waives, any claim based on an assertion of such a fiduciary duty or relationship. Additionally, the Placement Agent is not advising Holdings, the Company, or any other person as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting or regulatory matters in any jurisdiction. Holdings shall consult with its own advisors concerning such matters and shall be responsible for making its own independent investigation and appraisal of the Transactions, and the Placement Agent shall not have any responsibility or liability to Holdings with respect thereto. Any review or due diligence by the Placement Agent of Holdings, the Company, the Transactions or other matters relating to the Transactions will be performed solely for the benefit of the Placement Agent and shall not be on behalf of Holdings.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) It is understood and agreed that any written or oral guidance provided by J.P. Morgan in connection with the engagement described herein is exclusively for the information of the board of directors and senior management of Holdings (solely in their capacities as directors and officers of Holdings) in connection with their consideration of the Share Purchases, and such guidance and the terms of this Agreement may not be disclosed to any third party (other than Holdings' outside law firm or accounting firm, in each case who has been informed by Holdings of the confidential nature of such guidance and the terms of this Agreement and has agreed to treat such information confidentially or is otherwise subject to professional duties of confidentiality) or circulated or referred to publicly (including any reference to the fact that J.P. Morgan has rendered such guidance or entered into this Agreement) or used or relied on by any other party or for any other purpose without J.P. Morgan' prior written consent, except to the extent Holdings is required or requested to disclose such information (i) under compulsion of law (whether by oral question, interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigative demand or otherwise), by order or act of any court or governmental or regulatory authority or body or (ii) as otherwise required by applicable law, rule or regulation, including any listing exchange, or to the extent requested by the Staff of the Commission, any representative of the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") or any other regulatory agency; provided, in each case, Holdings shall, to the extent practicable, provide J.P. Morgan with prior written notice of such disclosure and cooperate, to a reasonable extent, with J.P. Morgan in any efforts J.P. Morgan may make to obtain an order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such guidance and this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, this paragraph shall not prohibit any persons from disclosing information to any governmental, regulatory, or self-regulatory organization.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Placement Agent shall have no obligation to purchase any of the Shares, or any liability to the Company if any prospective purchaser fails to consummate a purchase of or pay for any of the Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. *Share Purchases.* The Placement Agent agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to solicit offers from Purchasers to participate in Share Purchases. Neither the Placement Agent nor any of its affiliates, nor any partners, directors, officers, agents, employees or controlling persons (if any) of the Placement Agent or any of its affiliates, shall have any liability to Holdings, the Company or any other person for any act or omission on the part of any securities broker or dealer (other than the Placement Agent or its successors and assigns), commercial bank or trust company that solicits Share Purchases, and neither the Placement Agent nor any of such persons or entities referred to above related to the Placement Agent shall have any liability to Holdings or any person asserting claims on behalf of or in right of Holdings in connection with or as a result of either the Placement Agent's engagement or any matter referred to in this Agreement. In soliciting Share Purchases, no securities broker or dealer (other than the Placement Agent or its successors and assigns), commercial bank or trust company shall be deemed to act as the Placement Agent's agent or the agent of Holdings and you, as the Placement Agent, shall not be deemed the agent of any other securities broker or dealer or of any commercial bank or trust company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. [Reserved].

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Placement Agent agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Holdings and its subsidiaries, each of their respective directors and officers, and any person who controls Holdings within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and the successors and assigns of all of the foregoing persons, from and against any loss, damage, expense, liability or claim (including the reasonable cost of investigation) which, jointly or severally, Holdings or any such person may incur under the Act, the Exchange Act, the common law or otherwise, insofar as such loss, damage, expense, liability or claim arises out of or is based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact made in reliance upon and in conformity with any Placement Agent Information or any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact in such Registration Statement in connection with the Placement Agent Information, which material fact was not contained in the Placement Agent Information and which material fact was required to be stated in such Registration Statement or was necessary to make such information, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact made in reliance upon and in conformity with any Placement Agent Information or any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact in such Prospectus or Permitted Free Writing Prospectus or Testing-the-Waters Communication in connection with the Placement Agent Information, which material fact was not contained in the Placement Agent Information and which material fact was necessary in order to make the statements in such information, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If any action, suit or proceeding (each, a "<u>Proceeding</u>") is brought against a person (an "<u>indemnified party</u>") in respect of which indemnity may be sought against Holdings or the Placement Agent (as applicable, the "<u>indemnifying party</u>") pursuant to subsection **‎**(a) or **‎**(b) respectively, of this Section 11, such indemnified party shall promptly notify such indemnifying party in writing of the institution of such Proceeding and such indemnifying party shall be entitled to assume the defense of such Proceeding, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party and payment of all fees and expenses; provided, however, that the omission to so notify such indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability which such indemnifying party may have to any indemnified party or otherwise unless and to the extent the indemnifying party did not otherwise learn of such Proceeding and such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantive rights and defenses as determined by a final non-appealable judicial determination. The indemnified party or parties shall have the right to employ its or their own counsel in any such case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party or parties unless the employment of such counsel shall have been authorized in writing by the indemnifying party in connection with the defense of such Proceeding or the indemnifying party shall not have, within a reasonable period of time in light of the circumstances, employed counsel to defend such Proceeding or such indemnified party or parties shall have reasonably concluded that there may be defenses available to it or them which are different from, additional to or in conflict with those available to such indemnifying party (in which case such indemnifying party shall not have the right to direct the defense of such Proceeding on behalf of the indemnified party or parties), in any of which events such fees and expenses shall be borne by such indemnifying party and paid as incurred (it being understood, however, that such indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel (in addition to any local counsel), in any one Proceeding or series of related Proceedings in the same jurisdiction representing the indemnified parties who are parties to such Proceeding). The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding effected without its written consent but, if settled with its written consent such indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the indemnified party or parties from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened Proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding and does not include an admission of fault or culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of such indemnified party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 11 is unavailable to an indemnified party under subsections **‎**(a) or **‎**(b) of this Section 11 or insufficient to hold an indemnified party harmless in respect of any losses, damages, expenses, liabilities or claims referred to therein, then each applicable indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, damages, expenses, liabilities or claims (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other hand from the offering of the Shares or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause **‎**(i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause **‎**(i) above but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, damages, expenses, liabilities or claims, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by Holdings on the one hand and the Placement Agent on the other shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the total proceeds from the offering (net of the placement fee but before deducting expenses) received by Holdings and the placement fee received by the Placement Agent, bear to the aggregate public offering price of the Shares. The relative fault of Holdings on the one hand and of the Placement Agent on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission relates to information supplied by Holdings or by the Placement Agent and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, damages, expenses, liabilities and claims referred to in this subsection shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or defending any Proceeding.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Holdings and the Placement Agent agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 11 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in subsection **‎**(d) above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 11, the Placement Agent shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total placement fee received by the Placement Agent exceeds the amount of any damages that the Placement Agent has otherwise been required to pay by reason of (i) such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission or (ii) such loss, damage, expense, liability or claim (or action in respect thereof). No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section 11 and the covenants, warranties and representations of Holdings contained in this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Placement Agent, its partners, directors, officers or members or any person (including each partner, officer, director or member of such person) who controls the Placement Agent within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, or by or on behalf of Holdings, its directors or officers or any person who controls Holdings within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and shall survive any termination of this Agreement or the issuance and delivery of Shares. Holdings and the Placement Agent agree promptly to notify each other of the commencement of any Proceeding against it and, in the case of Holdings, against any of its officers or directors in connection with the issuance of the Shares, or in connection with the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14. *Governing Law; Construction*. This Agreement and any claim, counterclaim or dispute of any kind or nature whatsoever arising out of or in any way relating to this Agreement ("<u>Claim</u>"), directly or indirectly, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York without regard to the conflicts of law principles thereof. The section headings in this Agreement have been inserted as a matter of convenience of reference and are not a part of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15. *Submission to Jurisdiction*. Except as set forth below, no Claim may be commenced, prosecuted or continued in any court other than the courts of the State of New York located in the City and County of New York or in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, which courts shall have exclusive jurisdiction over the adjudication of such matters, and Holdings consents to the jurisdiction of such courts and personal service with respect thereto. Holdings hereby consents to personal jurisdiction, service and venue in any court in which any Claim arising out of or in any way relating to this Agreement is brought by any third party against the Placement Agent or any indemnified party. The Placement Agent and Holdings (on its behalf and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, on behalf of its shareholders and affiliates) each waives all right to trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim (whether based upon contract, tort or otherwise) in any way arising out of or relating to this Agreement. Holdings agrees that a final judgment in any such action, proceeding or counterclaim brought in any such court shall be conclusive and binding upon Holdings and may be enforced in any other courts to the jurisdiction of which Holdings is or may be subject, by suit upon such judgment. Holdings hereby irrevocably designates, appoints and empowers Corporate Creations Network Inc., 600 Mamaroneck Avenue #400, Harrison, NY 10528, Westchester County, as its designee, appointee and agent to receive, accept and acknowledge for and on its behalf, and its properties, assets and revenues, service of any and all legal process, summons, notices and documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;16. *Parties at Interest*. The Agreement herein set forth has been and is made solely for the benefit of the Placement Agent and Holdings, and to the extent provided in Section 11 hereof the controlling persons, partners, directors, officers, members and affiliates referred to in such Section, and their respective successors, assigns, heirs, personal representatives and executors and administrators. No other person, partnership, association or corporation (including any Purchaser) shall acquire or have any right under or by virtue of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;17. *No Fiduciary Relationship*. Holdings hereby acknowledges that the Placement Agent is acting solely as a placement agent to solicit offers from Purchasers to participate in Share Purchases. Holdings further acknowledges that the Placement Agent is acting pursuant to a contractual relationship created solely by this Agreement entered into on an arm's length basis, and in no event do the parties intend that the Placement Agent act or be responsible as a fiduciary to Holdings, its management, shareholders or creditors or any other person in connection with any activity that the Placement Agent may undertake or have undertaken in furtherance of the solicitation offers for securities of Holdings, either before or after the date hereof. The Placement Agent hereby expressly disclaims any fiduciary or similar obligations to Holdings, either in connection with the Transactions or any matters leading up to the Transactions, and Holdings hereby confirms its understanding and agreement to that effect. Holdings and the Placement Agent agree that they are each responsible for making their own independent judgments with respect to any such transactions and that any opinions or views expressed by the Placement Agent to Holdings regarding any such transactions, including, but not limited to, any opinions or views with respect to the price or market for Holdings' securities, do not constitute advice or recommendations to Holdings. Holdings and the Placement Agent agree that the Placement Agent is acting as principal and not the agent or fiduciary of Holdings and the Placement Agent has not assumed, and none of them will assume, any advisory responsibility in favor of Holdings with respect to the Transactions or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether the Placement Agent has advised or is currently advising Holdings on other matters). Holdings hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that Holdings may have against the Placement Agent with respect to any breach or alleged breach of any fiduciary, advisory or similar duty to Holdings in connection with the Transactions or any matters leading up to the Transactions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18. *Counterparts*. This Agreement may be signed by the parties in one or more counterparts which together shall constitute one and the same agreement among the parties. The words "execution," "signed," "signature," and words of like import in this Agreement or in any other certificate, agreement or document related to this Agreement, if any, shall include images of manually executed signatures transmitted by facsimile or other electronic format (including, without limitation, "pdf," "tif" or "jpg") and other electronic signatures (including, without limitation, DocuSign and AdobeSign). The use of electronic signatures and electronic records (including, without limitation, any contract or other record created, generated, sent, communicated, received, or stored by electronic means) shall be of the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or use of a paper-based record-keeping system to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act and any other applicable law, including, without limitation, any state law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act or the Uniform Commercial Code.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;19. *Successors and Assigns*. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Placement Agent and Holdings and their successors and assigns and any successor or assign of any substantial portion of Holdings' and the Placement Agent's respective businesses and/or assets.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;20. *Waiver of Immunities*. To the extent that Holdings or any of its properties, assets or revenues may have or may hereafter become entitled to, or have attributed to it, any right of immunity, on the grounds of sovereignty, from any legal action, suit or proceeding, from set-off or counterclaim, from the jurisdiction of any court, from service of process, from attachment upon or prior to judgment, or from attachment in aid of execution of judgment, or from execution of judgment, or other legal process or proceeding for the giving of any relief or for the enforcement of any judgment, in any jurisdiction in which proceedings may at any time be commenced, with respect to their obligations, liabilities or any other matter under or arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, Holdings hereby irrevocably and unconditionally, to the extent permitted by applicable law, waives and agrees not to plead or claim any such immunity and consents to such relief and enforcement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;21. *Foreign Taxes*. All payments by Holdings to the Placement Agent hereunder shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any and all present and future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or hereinafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any jurisdiction in which Holdings is organized, resident, doing business or has an office from which payment is made or deemed to be made, excluding (i) any such tax imposed by reason of the Placement Agent having some connection with the taxing jurisdiction other than its participation as the Placement Agent hereunder and (ii) any income or franchise tax on the overall net income of the Placement Agent imposed by the United States, by the State of New York or any other state thereof, or the District of Columbia, or any political subdivision or territory of the United States, of any state thereof, of the District of Columbia or of the State of New York (all such non-excluded taxes, "<u>Foreign Taxes</u>"). If Holdings is prevented by operation of law or otherwise from paying, causing to be paid or remitting that portion of amounts payable hereunder represented by Foreign Taxes withheld or deducted, then amounts payable under this Agreement shall, to the extent permitted by law, be increased to such amount as is necessary to yield and remit to the Placement Agent an amount which, after deduction of all Foreign Taxes (including all Foreign Taxes payable on such increased payments) equals the amount that would have been payable if no Foreign Taxes applied.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;22. *Judgment Currency*. Holdings agrees to indemnify the Placement Agent against any loss incurred by the Placement Agent as a result of any judgment or order in favor of the Placement Agent being given or made against Holdings for any amount due hereunder and such judgment or order being expressed and paid in a currency (the "<u>Judgment Currency</u>") other than United States dollars and as a result of any variation as between (i) the rate of exchange at which the United States dollar amount is converted into the Judgment Currency for the purpose of such judgment or order, and (ii) the rate of exchange in The City of New York at which such party on the date of payment of such judgment or order is able to purchase United States dollars with the amount of the Judgment Currency actually received by such party if such party had utilized such amount of Judgment Currency to purchase United States dollars as promptly as practicable upon such party's receipt thereof. The foregoing indemnity shall constitute a separate and independent obligation of Holdings, shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any such judgment or order as aforesaid. If the United States dollars so purchased are greater than the sum originally due to the Placement Agent hereunder, the Placement Agent agrees to pay to Holdings an amount equal to the excess of the dollars so purchased over the sum originally due to the Placement Agent hereunder. The term "rate of exchange" shall include any premiums and costs of exchange payable in connection with the purchase of, or conversion into, the relevant currency.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23. VAT.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) All sums payable by Holdings pursuant to this Agreement are exclusive of any value added tax ("<u>VAT</u>"). Accordingly, if any payment by Holdings pursuant to this Agreement constitutes the consideration for a taxable supply for VAT purposes, then, in addition to that payment, Holdings shall pay an amount equal to any VAT chargeable on such supply subject, where applicable, to the receipt of a valid VAT invoice by Holdings.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Where under the terms of this Agreement Holdings is liable to pay, indemnify or reimburse the Placement Agent in respect of any costs, charges or expenses, the payment shall include an amount equal to any VAT thereon not recoverable by the Placement Agent or any group of which the Placement Agent is a member for VAT purposes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;24. Recognition of the U.S. Special Resolution Regimes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) In the event that the Placement Agent is a Covered Entity subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer from the Placement Agent of this Agreement, and any interest and obligation in or under this Agreement, will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement, and any such interest and obligation, were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In the event that the Placement Agent is a Covered Entity or a BHC Act Affiliate of the Placement Agent becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under this Agreement that may be exercised against the Placement Agent are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

The Exchangeable Notes Offering is only being made to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers ("QIBs") as defined in Rule 144A ("Rule 144A") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), in reliance on Rule 144A pursuant to a separate confidential offering memorandum, and nothing contained herein shall constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the New Exchangeable Notes. Completion of this offering is not conditioned upon the completion of the Exchangeable Notes Offering or vice versa.<br>|
|  | NCLC anticipates that the net proceeds from the Exchangeable Notes Offering, after deducting the initial purchasers' discount but before deducting estimated fees and expenses, will be approximately $1,276.4 million (or approximately $1,381.4 million if the initial purchasers exercise their option to purchase additional New Exchangeable Notes in full). |
| 2027 Exchangeable Notes Repurchase Transactions: | NCLC intends to use the net proceeds from the Exchangeable Notes Offering, together with the net proceeds from this offering and cash on hand, to repurchase (the "Exchangeable Note Repurchases") (through its agent) approximately $958.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 1.125% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2027 for approximately $1,009.5 million and approximately $449.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2.50% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2027 (collectively with the 2027 1.125% Exchangeable Notes, the "2027 Exchangeable Notes") for approximately $480.5 million, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the repurchase date. See "Prospectus Supplement Summary—Concurrent Refinancing Transactions" in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement.<br>The Exchangeable Note Repurchases are conditioned upon the consummation of the Exchangeable Notes Offering and this offering, and the consummation of the Exchangeable Notes Offering and this offering are conditioned upon the consummation of the Exchangeable Note Repurchases. NCLC expects that certain holders of 2027 Exchangeable Notes that NCLC agreed to repurchase that have hedged their equity price risk with respect to such 2027 Exchangeable Notes (the "Hedged Holders") will, concurrently with or shortly after the pricing of the Exchangeable Notes Offering, unwind all or part of their hedge positions in such 2027 Exchangeable Notes by buying ordinary shares and/or entering into or unwinding various derivative transactions with respect to the ordinary shares. The number of ordinary shares to be purchased by the Hedged Holders may be substantial in relation to the historic average daily trading volume of the ordinary shares. The repurchase of the 2027 Exchangeable Notes, and the potential related market activities by the Hedged Holders, could increase (or reduce the size of any decrease in) the market price of the ordinary shares concurrently with the pricing of the New Exchangeable Notes and may have the effect of increasing the exchange price of the New Exchangeable Notes. NCLC cannot predict the magnitude of such market activity or the overall effect it will have on the market price of the New Exchangeable Notes or the ordinary shares.<br>|

The New Unsecured Notes will not be guaranteed by NCLH or any of NCLC's subsidiaries.

Completion of the New Unsecured Notes Offering is not conditioned upon the completion of this offering or the Exchangeable Notes Offering or vice versa.<br>NCLC has commenced an offer to purchase (the "Tender Offer"), for cash, (i) any and all of its 5.875% Senior Notes due 2026 (the "2026 Senior Notes") and (ii) any and all of its 5.875% Senior Secured Notes due 2027 (the "2027 Secured Notes"). As of the date of the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement, there is $225.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2026 Senior Notes and $1,000.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2027 Secured Notes outstanding.<br>NCLC intends to use the net proceeds from the New Unsecured Notes Offering, together with cash on hand, to (i) fund the Tender Offer, (ii) redeem all of the 2026 Senior Notes and the 2027 Secured Notes that are not accepted for purchase in the Tender Offer, (iii) redeem all of its 8.125% Senior Secured Notes due 2029 (the "2029 Secured Notes") and (iv) pay accrued and unpaid interest on the 2026 Senior Notes, the 2027 Secured Notes and the 2029 Secured Notes purchased or redeemed, as applicable, as well as pay related transaction premiums, fees and expenses.<br>The foregoing description and other information in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement regarding the New Unsecured Notes Offering, the Tender Offer, the redemption of the 2026 Senior Notes, the redemption of the 2027 Secured Notes and the redemption of the 2029 Secured Notes is included solely for informational purposes. This pricing term sheet is not a notice of redemption with respect to the 2026 Senior Notes, the 2027 Secured Notes or the 2029 Secured Notes or an offer to purchase, or a solicitation of an offer to sell, any of the 2026 Senior Notes, the 2027 Secured Notes or the 2029 Secured Notes and the Tender Offer is not an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to purchase, the New Exchangeable Notes or the New Unsecured Notes. See "Prospectus Supplement Summary—Concurrent Refinancing Transactions" in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement.<br>|
| Use of Proceeds: | NCLH anticipates that the net proceeds from the sale of ordinary shares in this offering will be $80.8 million, after deducting estimated fees and expenses. We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering and cash on hand, together with the net proceeds from the Exchangeable Notes Offering, to fund the Exchangeable Note Repurchases.  |

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) TO A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT THAT IS NOT AN AFFILIATE OF NCLH; OR

No transfer of any Note will be registered by the Note Registrar unless the applicable box on the Form of Assignment and Transfer has been checked.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture (other than the provisions set forth in this ‎Section 2.05(b)), a Global Note may not be transferred as a whole or in part except (i) by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary and (ii) for transfers of portions of a Global Note in certificated form made upon request of a member of, or a participant in, the Depositary (for itself or on behalf of a beneficial owner) by written notice given to the Trustee by or on behalf of the Depositary in accordance with Applicable Procedures and in compliance with this ‎Section 2.05(b).

The Depositary shall be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act. The Company initially appoints The Depository Trust Company to act as the "**Depositary**" with respect to each Global Note. Initially, each Global Note shall be issued to the Depositary, registered in the name of Cede & Co., as the nominee of the Depositary, and deposited with the Trustee as custodian for Cede & Co.

If:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(x) the Depositary (i) notifies the Company at any time that the Depositary is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary for the Global Notes and a successor depositary is not appointed within 90 days or (ii) ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and a successor depositary is not appointed within 90 days; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(y) there has occurred and is continuing an Event of Default and a beneficial owner of any Note requests through the Depositary that its beneficial interest therein be issued in a Certificated Note,

the Company shall execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Officer's Certificate, an Opinion of Counsel and a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of Notes, shall authenticate and deliver Certificated Notes to each beneficial owner of the related Global Notes (or a portion thereof) in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such Global Notes in exchange for such Global Notes, and upon delivery of the Global Notes to the Trustee such Global Notes shall be canceled.

Certificated Notes issued in exchange for all or a part of the Global Note pursuant to this ‎Section 2.05(b) shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee. Upon execution and authentication, the Trustee shall deliver such Certificated Notes to the Persons in whose names such Certificated Notes are so registered.

At such time as all interests in a Global Note have been exchanged, canceled, repurchased or transferred, such Global Note shall be, upon receipt thereof, canceled by the Trustee in accordance with Applicable Procedures and existing instructions between the Depositary and the Custodian. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any interest in a Global Note is exchanged for Certificated Notes, exchanged, canceled, repurchased or transferred to a transferee who receives Certificated Notes therefor or any Certificated Note is exchanged or transferred for part of such Global Note, the principal amount of such Global Note shall, in accordance with the Applicable Procedures and instructions existing between the Depositary and the Custodian, be appropriately reduced or increased, as the case may be, and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Note, by the Trustee or the Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, to reflect such reduction or increase.

None of the Company, the Guarantor, the Trustee and any agent of the Company, the Guarantor or the Trustee shall have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Global Note or maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. None of the Company, the Guarantor and the Trustee shall have any responsibility or liability for any act or omission of the Depositary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Until the date (the "**Resale Restriction Termination Date**") that is the later of (1) the date that is one year after the delivery date of the relevant Ordinary Shares, or such other period of time as permitted by Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any successor provision thereto, and (2) such later date, if any, as may be required by applicable law, any share certificate representing Ordinary Shares delivered upon exchange of a Note shall bear a legend in substantially the following form (unless such Ordinary Shares have been transferred pursuant to a registration statement that has become or been declared effective under the Securities Act and that continues to be effective at the time of such transfer or unless otherwise agreed by the Company in writing, with notice thereof to the Trustee and any transfer agent for the Ordinary Shares):

THIS SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE FOLLOWING SENTENCE. BY ITS ACQUISITION HEREOF OR OF A BENEFICIAL INTEREST HEREIN, THE ACQUIRER:

("NCLH"), AND

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF NCL CORPORATION LTD. (THE "COMPANY") AND NCLH THAT IT WILL NOT OFFER, SELL, PLEDGE OR OTHERWISE TRANSFER THIS SECURITY OR ANY BENEFICIAL INTEREST HEREIN PRIOR TO THE DATE THAT IS THE LATER OF (X) ONE YEAR AFTER THE LAST ORIGINAL ISSUE DATE HEREOF OR SUCH SHORTER PERIOD OF TIME AS PERMITTED BY RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR ANY SUCCESSOR PROVISION THERETO AND (Y) SUCH LATER DATE, IF ANY, AS MAY BE REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW EXCEPT:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) TO THE COMPANY, NCLH OR ANY SUBSIDIARY THEREOF;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) TO A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT THAT IS NOT AN AFFILIATE OF NCLH; OR

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION PROVIDED BY RULE 144 (IF AVAILABLE) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR ANY OTHER AVAILABLE EXEMPTION
FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT.

PRIOR TO THE REGISTRATION OF ANY TRANSFER IN ACCORDANCE WITH (2)(iv) ABOVE, THE COMPANY, NCLH AND THE TRUSTEE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REQUIRE THE DELIVERY OF SUCH LEGAL OPINIONS, CERTIFICATIONS OR OTHER EVIDENCE AS MAY REASONABLY BE REQUIRED IN ORDER TO DETERMINE THAT THE PROPOSED TRANSFER IS BEING MADE IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE SECURITIES ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. NO REPRESENTATION IS MADE AS TO THE AVAILABILITY OF ANY EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT.

NO AFFILIATE (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) OF THE COMPANY OR NCLH AND NO PERSON THAT HAS BEEN AN AFFILIATE (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) OF THE COMPANY OR NCLH DURING THE THREE IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING MONTHS MAY PURCHASE, OTHERWISE ACQUIRE OR OWN THIS SECURITY OR A BENEFICIAL INTEREST HEREIN.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Any such Ordinary Shares as to which such restrictions on transfer shall have expired in accordance with their terms may, upon surrender of the certificates representing such Ordinary Shares for exchange in accordance with the procedures of the transfer agent for the Ordinary Shares, be exchanged for a new certificate or certificates for a like aggregate number of Ordinary Shares, which shall not bear the restrictive legend required by **‎**Section 2.05(c).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Any Ordinary Shares delivered upon the exchange of a Note purchased or owned by an Affiliate of the Guarantor (or any Person who was an Affiliate of the Guarantor at any time during the three months preceding) may not be resold by such Affiliate unless registered under the Securities Act or resold pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act in a transaction that results in such Ordinary Shares no longer being a "restricted security" (as defined under Rule 144 under the Securities Act). 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 members of, or participants in, the Depositary 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.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Neither the Trustee nor any agent of the Trustee shall have any responsibility for any actions taken or not taken by the Depositary.

Section 2.06. *Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Notes.* In case any Note shall become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company in its discretion may execute, and upon its written request the Trustee or an authenticating agent appointed by the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, a new Note, bearing a registration number not contemporaneously outstanding, in exchange and substitution for the mutilated Note, or in lieu of and in substitution for the Note so destroyed, lost or stolen. In every case the applicant for a substituted Note shall furnish to the Company, to the Trustee and, if applicable, to such authenticating agent such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless from any loss, liability, cost or expense caused by or connected with such substitution, and, in every case of destruction, loss or theft, the applicant shall also furnish to the Company, to the Trustee and, if applicable, to such authenticating agent evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of such Note and of the ownership thereof.

The Trustee or such authenticating agent may authenticate any such substituted Note and deliver the same upon the receipt of such security or indemnity as the Trustee, the Company and, if applicable, such authenticating agent may require. Upon the issuance of any substitute Note, the Company or the Trustee may require the payment by the Holder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses connected therewith. In case any Note that has matured or is about to mature, is subject to Tax Redemption or Optional Redemption, or has been surrendered for repurchase or is about to be exchanged in accordance with ‎Article 14 shall become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company may, in its sole discretion, instead of issuing a substitute Note, pay or authorize the payment of or exchange or authorize the exchange of the same (without surrender thereof except in the case of a mutilated Note), as the case may be, if the applicant for such payment or exchange shall furnish to the Company, to the Trustee and, if applicable, to any Paying Agent or Exchange Agent such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless from any loss, liability, cost or expense caused by or connected with such payment or exchange, and, in every case of destruction, loss or theft, evidence satisfactory to the Company, the Trustee and, if applicable, any Paying Agent or Exchange Agent evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of such Note and of the ownership thereof.

Every substitute Note issued pursuant to the provisions of this ‎Section 2.06 by virtue of the fact that any Note is destroyed, lost or stolen shall constitute an additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be found at any time, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of (but shall be subject to all the limitations set forth in) this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder. To the extent permitted by law, all Notes shall be held and owned upon the express condition that the foregoing provisions are exclusive with respect to the replacement or payment or exchange or repurchase of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and shall preclude any and all other rights or remedies notwithstanding any law or statute existing or hereafter enacted to the contrary with respect to the replacement or payment or exchange of negotiable instruments or other securities without their surrender.

Section 2.07. *Temporary Notes.* Pending the preparation of Certificated Notes, the Company may execute and the Trustee or an authenticating agent appointed by the Trustee shall, upon written request of the Company, authenticate and deliver temporary Notes (printed or lithographed). Temporary Notes shall be issuable in any authorized denomination, and substantially in the form of the Certificated Notes but with such omissions, insertions and variations as may be appropriate for temporary Notes, all as may be determined by the Company. Every such temporary Note shall be executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee or such authenticating agent upon the same conditions and in substantially the same manner, and with the same effect, as the Certificated Notes. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Trustee or such authenticating agent Certificated Notes (other than any Global Note) and thereupon any or all temporary Notes (other than any Global Note) may be surrendered in exchange therefor, at each office or agency maintained by the Company pursuant to **‎**Section 4.02 and the Trustee or such authenticating agent shall authenticate and deliver in exchange for such temporary Notes an equal aggregate principal amount of Certificated Notes. Such exchange shall be made by the Company at its own expense and without any charge therefor. Until so exchanged, the temporary Notes shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits and subject to the same limitations under this Indenture as Certificated Notes authenticated and delivered hereunder.

Section 2.08. *Cancellation of Notes Paid, Exchanged, Etc.* The Company shall cause all Notes surrendered for the purpose of payment, redemption, repurchase (but excluding notes repurchased pursuant to cash-settled swaps or other derivatives that are not physically settled), exchange or registration of transfer or exchange, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee (including any of the Company's agents, Subsidiaries or Affiliates), to be delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, and such Notes shall no longer be considered outstanding for purposes of this Indenture upon their payment, redemption, repurchase, exchange, registration of transfer or exchange. All Notes delivered to the Trustee for cancellation shall be cancelled promptly by it in accordance with its customary procedures. No Notes shall be authenticated in exchange for any Notes cancelled, except as expressly permitted by any of the provisions of this Indenture. The Trustee shall dispose of canceled Notes in accordance with its customary procedures.

Section 2.09. *CUSIP Numbers.* The Company in issuing the Notes may use "CUSIP" numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee may use "CUSIP" numbers in notices issued to Holders as a convenience to such Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or on such notice and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the "CUSIP" numbers.

Section 2.10. *Additional Notes; Purchases.* (a) The Company may, from time to time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Holders, reopen the Indenture for the Notes and issue additional Notes under this Indenture with the same terms and with the same CUSIP number as the Notes issued on the Issue Date (other than differences in the issue date, the issue price and interest accrued prior to the issue date of such additional Notes and, if applicable, the initial Interest Payment Date and restrictions on transfer in respect of such additional Notes) in an unlimited aggregate principal amount; *provided* that if any such additional Notes are not fungible with the Notes issued on the Issue Date for U.S. federal income tax or securities law purposes, such additional Notes shall have one or more separate CUSIPs number. Such Notes issued on the Issue Date and the additional Notes shall rank equally and ratably and shall be treated as a single series for all purposes under this Indenture. Prior to the issuance of any such additional Notes, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee a Company Order, an Officer's Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, such Officer's Certificate and Opinion of Counsel to cover such matters, in addition to those required by **‎**Section 17.06, as the Trustee shall reasonably request.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Company may at any time and from time to time, to the extent permitted by law, directly or indirectly (regardless of whether such Notes are surrendered to the Company), repurchase, exchange or otherwise acquire or retire the Notes, whether by the Guarantor, the Company or the Guarantor's other Subsidiaries, by means other than a redemption pursuant to Article 16, upon such terms, at such prices and with such considerations that the Company may determine, including, without limitation, in negotiated transactions, open market purchases, through private or public tenders or exchange offers or through counterparties to private agreements or any other transactions, including by cash-settled swaps or other derivatives, with one or more Holders and/or beneficial owners of the Notes, in each case, without the consent of or notice to the Holders of the Notes. The Company shall cause any Notes so purchased or otherwise acquired (other than Notes purchased pursuant to cash-settled swaps or other derivatives that are not physically settled) to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and they will no longer be considered "outstanding" under the Indenture upon their purchase.

Article 3<br> Satisfaction and Discharge

Section 3.01. *Satisfaction and Discharge.* This Indenture and the Notes shall upon request of the Company contained in an Officer's Certificate cease to be of further effect (except as set forth in the last paragraph of this **‎**Section 3.01), and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, when:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. either:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) all Notes theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (x) Notes which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or paid as provided in ‎Section 2.06 and (y) Notes for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust with the Trustee or segregated and held in trust by the Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust, as provided in ‎Section 4.04(d)) have been delivered to the Note Registrar for cancellation; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the Company or the Guarantor has irrevocably deposited with the Trustee or delivered to Holders, as applicable, after all of the outstanding Notes have (i) become due and payable, whether at the Maturity Date, upon Tax Redemption, upon Optional Redemption or at any Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, and/or (ii) have been exchanged (and the related Settlement Amounts have been determined), cash and (in the case of an exchange of Notes, if applicable) Ordinary Shares (or, if applicable, Reference Property), as applicable, sufficient to pay all of the outstanding Notes and/or satisfy all exchanges, as the case may be, and pay all other sums due and payable under this Indenture by the Company and the Guarantor, along with irrevocable instructions to apply such cash to the payment of the Notes, as applicable; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officer's Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with.

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the obligations of the Company and the Guarantor to the Trustee under ‎Section 7.06 and, if cash and (in the case of an exchange of Notes, if applicable) Ordinary Shares shall have been deposited with the Paying Agent pursuant to ‎Section 3.01.A(ii), ‎Section 4.04 shall survive such satisfaction and discharge.

Article 4<br> Particular Covenants of the Company and the Guarantor

Section 4.01. *Payment of Principal and Interest.* The Company shall pay or cause to be paid the principal (including the Tax Redemption Price, the Optional Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, and interest on the Notes on the dates and in the manner provided in the Notes. Principal and interest shall be considered paid on the date due if the Paying Agent, if other than the Company or the Guarantor, holds as of 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the due date money deposited by the Company or the Guarantor in immediately available funds and designated for and sufficient to pay all principal and interest then due. Unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee, the Company will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any failure to take such action.

The Company shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal (including the Tax Redemption Price, the Optional Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable), at the rate equal to the interest rate on the Notes to the extent lawful; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace period), at the same rate to the extent lawful.

Section 4.02. *Maintenance of Office or Agency.* The Company shall maintain an office or agency (which may be an office of the Trustee or an Affiliate of the Trustee) where Notes may be presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange or for payment, redemption or repurchase ("**Paying Agent**") or for exchange ("**Exchange Agent**") and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. The Company shall, at all times, maintain an office or agency in the continental United States to serve as the Company's Paying Agent and Exchange Agent for the Notes. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands (but not service of process) may be made at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee.

The Company 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. Further, if at any time there shall be no such office or agency in the continental United States where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for payment, the Company shall forthwith designate and maintain such an office or agency in the continental United States, in order that the Notes shall at all times be payable in the continental United States. The Company 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. The terms "Paying Agent" and "Exchange Agent" include any such additional or other offices or agencies, as applicable.

The Company hereby appoints the Trustee as Paying Agent, Note Registrar, Custodian and Exchange Agent and designates the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee as one such office or agency of the Company; *provided* that the Corporate Trust Office shall not be a place for service of legal process for the Company.

The Company reserves the right to vary or terminate the appointment of any Note Registrar, Paying Agent or Exchange Agent; act as the Paying Agent; appoint additional Paying Agents or Exchange Agents; or approve any change in the office through which any Note Registrar or Paying Agent or Exchange Agent acts.

Section 4.03. *Appointments to Fill Vacancies in Trustee's Office.* The Company, whenever necessary to avoid or fill a vacancy in the office of Trustee, will appoint, in the manner provided in **‎**Section 7.09, a Trustee, so that there shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder.

Section 4.04. *Provisions as to Paying Agent.* (a) If the Company shall appoint a Paying Agent other than the Trustee, the Company will cause such Paying Agent to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this **‎**Section 4.04:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. that it will hold all sums held by it as such agent for the payment of the principal (including the Tax Redemption Price, the Optional Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. that it will give the Trustee prompt notice of any failure by the Company to make any payment of the principal (including the Tax Redemption Price, the Optional Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes when the same shall be due and payable; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;C. that at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, upon request of the Trustee, it will forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If the Company shall act as its own Paying Agent, it will, on or before each due date of the principal (including the Tax Redemption Price, the Optional Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes, set aside, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes a sum sufficient to pay such principal (including the Tax Redemption Price, the Optional Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) and accrued and unpaid interest so becoming due and will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any failure to take such action and of any failure by the Company to make any payment of the principal (including the Tax Redemption Price, the Optional Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, or accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes when the same shall become due and payable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Anything in this **‎**Section 4.04 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company may, at any time, for the purpose of obtaining a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, or for any other reason, pay, cause to be paid or deliver to the Trustee all sums or amounts held in trust by the Company or any Paying Agent hereunder as required by this **‎**Section 4.04, such sums or amounts to be held by the Trustee upon the trusts herein contained and upon such payment or delivery by the Company or any Paying Agent to the Trustee, the Company or such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability but only with respect to such sums or amounts.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Subject to applicable escheat laws, any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal (including the Tax Redemption Price, the Optional Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal (including the Tax Redemption Price, the Optional Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable), or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on request of the Company contained in an Officer's Certificate, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company and the Guarantor for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) For as long as any Notes or Ordinary Shares are outstanding hereunder, at any time the Guarantor is not subject to Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company shall, so long as any of the Notes or any Ordinary Shares issued upon exchange of the Notes shall, at such time, constitute "restricted securities" within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the Securities Act, promptly provide to the Trustee and shall, upon written request, provide to any Holder, beneficial owner or prospective purchaser of such Notes or any Ordinary Shares issued upon exchange of such Notes, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act to facilitate the resale of such Notes or Ordinary Shares, as the case may be, pursuant to Rule 144A (as such rule may be amended from time to time). The Company shall take such further action as any Holder or beneficial owner of such Notes or such Ordinary Shares may reasonably request to the extent from time to time required to enable such Holder or beneficial owner to sell such Notes or Ordinary Shares in accordance with Rule 144A, as such rule may be amended from time to time.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Guarantor shall provide to the Trustee within 15 days after the same are required to be filed with the Commission (after giving effect to any grace period provided by Rule 12b-25 under the Exchange Act or any successor rule under the Exchange Act or any special order of the Commission), copies of any documents or reports that the Guarantor is required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (excluding any such information, documents or reports, or portions thereof, subject to confidential treatment and any correspondence with the Commission). Any such document or report that the Guarantor files with the Commission via the Commission's EDGAR system (or any successor thereto) shall be deemed to be provided to the Trustee for purposes of this ‎Section 4.06(b) as of the time such documents are filed via the EDGAR system (or such successor). As used in ‎this Section 4.06(b), documents or reports that the Guarantor is required to "file" with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act do not include documents or reports that the Guarantor furnishes to the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Delivery of the reports, information and documents described in ‎Section 4.06‎(b) to the Trustee is for informational purposes only, and the Trustee's receipt of such shall not constitute actual or constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company's and/or the Guarantor's compliance with any of the Company's and/or the Guarantor's covenants under this Indenture or the Notes (as to which the Trustee is entitled to conclusively rely on an Officer's Certificate). The Trustee shall not be obligated by such covenants or to determine whether any reports or other documents have been filed with the Commission or via the Commission's EDGAR system (or any successor thereto) or posted on any website, or to participate in any conference calls.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If, at any time during the six-month period beginning on, and including, the date that is six months after the last date of original issuance of the Notes (including any Notes issued pursuant to the Initial Purchasers' option to purchase additional Notes), the Guarantor fails to timely file any document or report that it is required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, as applicable (other than reports on Form 8-K), after giving effect to all applicable grace periods thereunder (a "**Filing Default**"), or the Notes are not otherwise freely tradable pursuant to Rule 144 by holders other than the Company's Affiliates or holders that were the Company's Affiliates at any time during the three months immediately preceding (as a result of restrictions pursuant to U.S. securities laws or the terms of this Indenture or the Notes), the Company shall pay Additional Interest on the Notes from, and including, the first date after the conclusion of the six-month period described above on which such failure to occurs or the first date the Notes are not otherwise freely tradable as described above by holders other than the Company's Affiliates or holders that were the Company's Affiliates at any time during the three months immediately preceding without restriction pursuant to U.S. federal securities laws or the terms of the Indenture or the Notes, whichever is earlier, until the earlier of (i) the 360th day immediately following, and including, the last date of original issuance of the Notes (including any Notes issued pursuant to the Initial Purchasers' option to purchase additional Notes) and (ii) the date on which such failure to file has been cured (if applicable) and the Notes are otherwise freely tradable as described above by holders other than the Company's Affiliates or holders that were the Company's Affiliates at any time during the three months immediately preceding without restriction pursuant to U.S. federal securities laws or the terms of the Indenture or the Notes. Such Additional Interest shall accrue on the Notes at the rate of 0.50% per annum of the principal amount of the Notes outstanding for each day during such period for which the Guarantor's failure to file has occurred and is continuing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) If, and for so long as, the restrictive legend on the Notes specified in **‎**Section 2.05(b) has not been removed (or deemed removed), the Notes are assigned a restricted CUSIP number or the Notes are not otherwise freely tradable by holders other than the Company's Affiliates or holders that were the Company's Affiliates at any time during the three months immediately preceding without restrictions pursuant to U.S. federal securities laws or the terms of the Indenture or the Notes as of the 380th day after the last date of original issuance of the Notes (including any Notes issued pursuant to the Initial Purchasers' option to purchase additional Notes), the Company will pay Additional Interest on the Notes at a rate equal to 0.50% per annum of the principal amount of Notes outstanding until the restrictive legend has been removed (or deemed removed) from the Notes in accordance with **‎**Section 2.05(b), the Notes are assigned an unrestricted CUSIP number and the Notes are freely tradable as described above by holders other than the Company's Affiliates or holders that were the Company's Affiliates at any time during the three months immediately preceding; *provided*, *however*, that no Additional Interest shall accrue or be owed pursuant to this Section 4.06(e) until the fifth Business Day following written notification to the Company by any Holder or beneficial owner of the Notes requesting that the Company comply with its obligations described in this Section 4.06(e) (which notice may be given at any time after the 330th day after the last date of original issuance of the Notes), it being understood and agreed that in no event shall Additional Interest accrue or be owed pursuant to this Section 4.06(e) for any period prior to the 380th day after the last date of original issuance of the Notes. The restrictive legend on the Notes will be deemed removed pursuant to the terms of this Indenture upon notice by the Company to the Trustee and delivery of the documents required pursuant to this Indenture, and, at such time, the Notes will be automatically assigned an unrestricted CUSIP. However, for the avoidance of doubt, for Notes that are not in certificated form, the Notes will continue to bear additional interest pursuant to this paragraph until such time as they are identified by an unrestricted CUSIP in the facilities of DTC or any successor depositary for the Notes, as a result of completion of DTC's mandatory exchange process or otherwise.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Additional Interest will be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date following accrual in the same manner as regular interest on the Notes and shall be in addition to any Additional Interest that may accrue, at the Company's election pursuant to Section 6.03, as the sole remedy relating to the failure to comply with the Guarantor's obligations under Section 4.06(b)**‎**. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall any Additional Interest that may accrue as a result of a Filing Default, as described in Section 4.06(d), together with any Additional Interest that may accrue in the event the Company elects pursuant to Section 6.03 to pay Additional Interest as the sole remedy relating to the failure to comply with the Guarantor's obligations under Section 4.06(b), accrue at a rate in excess of 0.50% per annum, regardless of the number of events or circumstances giving rise to the requirement to pay such Additional Interest.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) If Additional Interest is payable by the Company pursuant to Section 4.06(d), Section 4.06(e) or **‎**Section 6.03(a), the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer's Certificate to that effect stating (i) the amount of such Additional Interest that is payable and (ii) the date on which such Additional Interest is payable. Unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee receives at the Corporate Trust Office such a certificate, the Trustee may assume without inquiry that no such Additional Interest is payable.

Section 4.07. *No Rights as Shareholders.* Holders of Notes, as such, will not have any rights as shareholders of the Guarantor or the Company (including, without limitation, voting rights and rights to receive any dividends or other distributions on Ordinary Shares).

Section 4.08. *Stay, Extension and Usury Laws.* Each of the Company and the Guarantor covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it shall not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law has been enacted.

Section 4.09. *Compliance Certificate; Statements as to Defaults.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year (beginning with the year ending December 31, 2025), an Officer's Certificate stating whether the signer thereof has knowledge of any Default that occurred during the previous year and is then continuing and, if so, specifying each such failure and the nature thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Company shall, so long as any of the Notes are outstanding, deliver to the Trustee an Officer's Certificate within 30 days after an Officer of the Company becomes aware of the occurrence of any event that would constitute a Default or Event of Default, specifying each such event, the status thereof and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

Section 4.10. *Additional Amounts.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) All payments made by or on behalf of the Company or the Guarantor (including, in each case, any successor entity), including amounts payable upon redemption, repurchase or conversion, under or with respect to the Notes or the Guarantee will be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future taxes unless the withholding or deduction of such taxes is then required by law. If the Company, the Guarantor or any other applicable withholding agent is required by law to withhold or deduct any amount for, or on account of, any taxes imposed or levied by or on behalf of (1) any jurisdiction in which the Company or the Guarantor is or was incorporated, engaged in business, organized or resident for tax purposes or any political subdivision thereof or therein or (2) any jurisdiction from or through which any payment is made by or on behalf of the Company or the Guarantor (including, without limitation, the jurisdiction of any Paying Agent) or any political subdivision thereof or therein (each of (1) and (2), a "**Tax Jurisdiction**") in respect of any payments or delivery under or with respect to the Notes or the Guarantee, including, without limitation, payments of principal, Tax Redemption Price, Optional Redemption Price, purchase price, interest or premium, or the amount due upon an exchange, the Company or the Guarantor, as applicable, will pay such additional amounts (the "**Additional Amounts**") as may be necessary in order that the net amounts received in respect of such payments or delivery by each Holder after such withholding or deduction will equal the respective amounts that would have been received by such Holder in respect of such payments in the absence of such withholding or deduction; *provided*, *however*, that no Additional Amounts will be payable with respect to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. any taxes, to the extent such taxes would not have been imposed but for the Holder or the beneficial owner of the Notes (or a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, partner of, member or shareholder of, or possessor of a power over, the relevant Holder or beneficial owner, if the relevant Holder or the beneficial owner is an estate, trust, nominee, partnership, limited liability company or corporation) being or having been a citizen or resident or national of, or incorporated, engaged in a trade or business in, being or having been physically present in or having or having had a permanent establishment in, the relevant Tax Jurisdiction or having or having had any other present or former connection with the relevant Tax Jurisdiction, other than any connection arising solely from the acquisition, ownership or disposition of Notes, the exercise or enforcement of rights under such Note, this Indenture or the Guarantee, or the receipt of payments in respect of such Note or the Guarantee;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. any taxes, to the extent such taxes were imposed as a result of the presentation of a Note for payment (where presentation is required) more than 30 days after the relevant payment is first made available for payment to the Holder (except to the extent that the Holder would have been entitled to Additional Amounts had the Note been presented on the last day of such 30 day period);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;C. any estate, inheritance, gift, sale, transfer, personal property or similar taxes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;D. any taxes payable other than by deduction or withholding from payments under, or with respect to, the Notes or the Guarantee;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;E. any taxes to the extent such taxes would not have been imposed or withheld but for the failure of the Holder or beneficial owner of the Notes, following the Company's reasonable written request addressed to the Holder at least 30 days before any such withholding or deduction would be imposed, to comply with any certification, identification, information or other reporting requirements, whether required by statute, treaty, regulation or administrative practice of a Tax Jurisdiction, as a precondition to exemption from, or reduction in the rate of deduction or withholding of, taxes imposed by the Tax Jurisdiction (including, without limitation, a certification that the Holder or beneficial owner is not resident in the Tax Jurisdiction), but in each case, only to the extent the Holder or beneficial owner is legally eligible to provide such certification or documentation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;F. any taxes imposed in connection with a Note presented for payment (where presentation is permitted or required for payment) by or on behalf of a Holder or beneficial owner of the Notes to the extent such taxes could have been avoided by presenting the relevant Note to, or otherwise accepting payment from, another paying agent;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;G. any taxes imposed on or with respect to any payment by the Company or the Guarantor to the Holder of the Notes if such Holder is a fiduciary or partnership or any person other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment to the extent that such taxes would not have been imposed on such payments had such Holder been the sole beneficial owner of such Note;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;H. any taxes imposed by the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia or any subdivision thereof or territory thereof, including any U.S. federal withholding taxes and any taxes that are imposed pursuant to current Section 1471 through 1474 of the Code or any amended or successor version that is substantively comparable and not materially more onerous to comply with, any regulations promulgated thereunder, any official interpretations thereof, any intergovernmental agreement between a non-U.S. jurisdiction and the United States (or any related law or administrative practices or procedures) implementing the foregoing or any agreements entered into pursuant to current Section 1471(b)(1) of the Code (or any amended or successor version described above); or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I. any combination of clauses ‎A through ‎H above.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In addition to the foregoing, the Company and the Guarantor will also pay and indemnify the Holder for any present or future stamp, issue, registration, value added, transfer, court or documentary taxes, or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies (including penalties, interest and additions to tax related thereto) which are levied by any relevant Tax Jurisdiction on the execution, delivery, issuance, or registration of any of the Notes, this Indenture, the Guarantee or any other document referred to therein, or the receipt of any payments, with respect thereto, or enforcement of, any of the Notes or the Guarantee (limited, solely in the case of taxes attributable to the receipt of any payments, or that are imposed on or result from a sale or other transfer or disposition of a Note by a Holder or a beneficial owner, to any such taxes imposed in a Tax Jurisdiction that are not excluded under clauses **‎**A through **‎**C or **‎**E through **‎**I above or any combination thereof).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, becomes aware that it will be obligated to pay Additional Amounts with respect to any payment under or with respect to the Notes or the Guarantee, the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, will deliver to the Trustee on a date that is at least 30 days prior to the date of that payment (unless the obligation to pay Additional Amounts arises after the 30th day prior to that payment date, in which case the Company or the Guarantor shall notify the Trustee promptly thereafter) an Officer's Certificate stating the fact that Additional Amounts will be payable and the amount estimated to be so payable. The Officer's Certificates must also set forth any other information reasonably necessary to enable the Paying Agents to pay Additional Amounts to Holders on the relevant payment date. The Company or the Guarantor will provide the Trustee with documentation reasonably satisfactory to the trustee evidencing the payment of Additional Amounts. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely absolutely on an Officer's Certificate as conclusive proof that such payments are necessary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Company or the Guarantor, if it is the applicable withholding agent, will make all withholdings and deductions (within the time period) required by law and will remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Tax authority in accordance with applicable law. The Company or the Guarantor will use its reasonable efforts to obtain Tax receipts from each Tax authority evidencing the payment of any taxes so deducted or withheld. The Company or the Guarantor will furnish to the Trustee (or to a Holder of the Notes upon request), within 60 days after the date the payment of any taxes so deducted or withheld is made, certified copies of Tax receipts evidencing payment by the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, or if, notwithstanding such entity's efforts to obtain receipts, receipts are not obtained, other evidence of payments (reasonably satisfactory to the trustee) by such entity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Whenever in this Indenture or the Notes there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of amounts based upon the principal amount of the Notes or of principal, interest or of any other amount payable under, or with respect to, any of the Notes or the Guarantee, such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) This **‎**Section 4.07 will survive any termination, defeasance or discharge of this Indenture, any transfer by a Holder or beneficial owner of its Notes, and will apply, *mutatis mutandis*, to any jurisdiction in which any successor person to the Company (or the Guarantor) is incorporated, engaged in business, organized or resident for tax purposes, or any jurisdiction from or through which payment is made under or with respect to the Notes (or the Guarantee) by or on behalf of such person and, in each case, any political subdivision thereof or therein.

Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, in no event, however, shall any Additional Interest that may accrue as a result of a Filing Default, as described in Section 4.06(d), together with any Additional Interest that may accrue in the event the Company elects pursuant to Section 6.03 to pay Additional Interest as the sole remedy relating to the Guarantor's failure to comply with its obligations under **‎**Section 4.06(b), accrue at a rate in excess of 0.50% per annum, regardless of the number of events or circumstances giving rise to the requirement to pay such Additional Interest.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If the Company elects to pay Additional Interest pursuant to **‎**Section 6.03(a), such Additional Interest shall be payable in the same manner and on the same dates as the stated interest payable on the Notes and will accrue on all Notes then outstanding from, and including, the date on which the Event of Default relating to the Guarantor's failure to comply with its obligations as set forth in Section 4.06(b) first occurs to, but not including, the 361st day thereafter (or such earlier date on which such Event of Default is cured or waived by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding). On the 361st day after such Event of Default (if such Event of Default is not cured or waived prior to such 361st day), such Additional Interest will cease to accrue and the Notes will be subject to acceleration as provided in **‎**Section 6.02. In the event the Company does not elect to pay Additional Interest following an Event of Default relating to the Guarantor's failure to comply with its obligations as set forth in Section 4.06(b) in accordance with this **‎**Section 6.03, or the Company has elected to make such payment but does not pay the Additional Interest when due, the Notes shall immediately be subject to acceleration as provided in **‎**Section 6.02. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this **‎**Section 6.03 shall not affect the rights of Holders in the event of the occurrence of any other Event of Default.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) In order to elect to pay Additional Interest as the sole remedy during the first 360 days after the occurrence of an Event of Default relating to the Guarantor's failure to comply with its obligations as set forth in Section 4.06(b), the Company must notify all Holders of the Notes, the Trustee and the Paying Agent (if other than the Trustee) in writing of such election on or before the close of business on the date on which such Event of Default first occurs. Upon the Company's failure to timely give such notice or pay Additional Interest, the Notes shall be immediately subject to acceleration as provided in Section 6.02. For the avoidance of doubt, if (x) the Company timely elects to pay Additional Interest pursuant to this Section 6.03 as the sole remedy during the first 360 days after the occurrence of an Event of Default relating to the Guarantor's failure to comply with its obligations as set forth in Section 4.06(b) in accordance with this paragraph (d), (y) the Company pays such Additional Interest in accordance with this Section 6.03 and this Indenture and (z) the Guarantor files the delinquent reports that were required to be filed and gave rise to the relevant Event of Default (in each case in clause (z) pursuant to the provisions set forth in Section 4.06(b)) prior to the 361st day after the occurrence of such Event of Default (or prior to the delivery of any related notice of acceleration on or after such 361st day), such Event of Default shall be deemed cured and the Notes shall not be subject to acceleration as a result of the initial failure to comply with the Guarantor's obligations as set forth in Section 4.06(b).

Section 6.04. *Payments of Notes on Default; Suit Therefor.* If an Event of Default described in clause **‎**(a), **‎**(b) or **‎**(c) of **‎**Section 6.01 shall have occurred and the Notes have become due and payable pursuant to **‎**Section 6.02, the Company shall, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, the whole amount then due and payable on the Notes for principal (including the Tax Redemption Price, the Optional Redemption Price or the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable), satisfaction of the Exchange Obligation with respect to all Notes that have been exchanged, and interest, if any, with (to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable) interest on any such overdue amounts, at the rate borne by the Notes, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover any amounts due to the Trustee under **‎**Section 7.06. If the Company shall fail to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Company, the Guarantor or any other obligor upon the Notes and collect the monies adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company, the Guarantor or any other obligor upon the Notes, wherever situated.

In the event there shall be pending proceedings for the bankruptcy or for the reorganization of the Guarantor or the Company under Bankruptcy Law, or any other applicable law, or in case a receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official shall have been appointed for or taken possession of the Guarantor or the Company, or the property of the Guarantor or the Company, or in the event of any other judicial proceedings relative to the Guarantor or the Company, or to the creditors or property of the Guarantor or the Company, the Trustee, irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of this ‎(a), shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceedings or otherwise, to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of principal and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, in respect of the Notes, and, in case of any judicial proceedings, to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents and to take such other actions as it may deem necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceedings relative to the Guarantor or the Company, its or their creditors, or its or their property, and to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims, and to distribute the same after the deduction of any amounts due to the Trustee under ‎Section 7.06; and any receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, custodian or similar official is hereby authorized by each of the Holders to make such payments to the Trustee, as administrative expenses, 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 reasonable compensation, expenses, advances and disbursements, including agents and counsel fees, and including any other amounts due to the Trustee under ‎Section 7.06, incurred by it up to the date of such distribution. To the extent that such payment of reasonable compensation, expenses, advances and disbursements out of the estate in any such proceedings shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, monies, securities and other property that the Holders of the Notes may be entitled to receive in such proceedings, whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise.

Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting such Holder or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

All rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture, or under any of the Notes, may be enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes, or the production thereof at any trial or other proceeding relative thereto, and any such suit or proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes.

In any proceedings brought by the Trustee (and in any proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to which the Trustee shall be a party) the Trustee shall be held to represent all the Holders of the Notes, and it shall not be necessary to make any Holders of the Notes parties to any such proceedings.

In case the Trustee shall have proceeded to enforce any right under this Indenture and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned because of any waiver, rescission or annulment pursuant to ‎Section 6.09 or for any other reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee, then and in every such case the Company, the Guarantor, the Holders, and the Trustee shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding, be restored respectively to their several positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Company, the Holders, and the Trustee shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

Section 6.05. *Application of Monies Collected by Trustee.* Any monies collected by the Trustee pursuant to this **‎**Article 6 with respect to the Notes shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee for the distribution of such monies, upon presentation of the several Notes, and stamping thereon the payment, if only partially paid, and upon surrender thereof, if fully paid:

FIRST: to the payment of all amounts due the Trustee (acting in any capacity hereunder) under ‎Section 7.06;

SECOND: to the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of, the Tax Redemption Price (if applicable), the Optional Redemption Price (if applicable) and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price (if applicable) of, and/or satisfaction of the Exchange Obligation with respect to all Notes that have been exchanged, and interest on the Notes in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such Notes; and

THIRD: to the Company.

Section 6.06. *Proceedings by Holders.* Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal (including, if applicable, the Tax Redemption Price, the Optional Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price) or interest when due, or the right to receive payment and/or delivery of the consideration due upon exchange of any Note, no Holder of any Note shall have any right by virtue of or by availing of any provision of this Indenture to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator, custodian or other similar official, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) such Holder has previously given the Trustee written notice that an Event of Default is continuing;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes have requested the Trustee in writing to pursue the remedy;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) such Holders have offered the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability, claim or expense;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt thereof and the offer of such security or indemnity; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction that, in the opinion of the Trustee, is inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period.

A Holder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder, it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not any such use prejudices the rights of another Holder or obtains a preference or priority over another Holder.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture and any provision of any Note, the right of any Holder to receive payment or delivery, as the case may be, of (x) the principal (including the Tax Redemption Price, the Optional Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, (y) accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, and (z) the consideration due upon exchange of, such Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed or provided for in such Note or in this Indenture, or to institute suit against the Company for the enforcement of any such payment of principal (including the Tax Redemption Price, the Optional Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, as applicable), accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on and the consideration due upon exchange of, its Notes, on or after such respective dates expressed or provided for in this Indenture shall not be amended without the consent of such Holder.

Section 6.07. *Proceedings by Trustee.* In case of an Event of Default, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce the rights vested in it by this Indenture by such appropriate judicial proceedings as are necessary to protect and enforce any of such rights, either by suit in equity or by action at law or by proceeding in bankruptcy or otherwise, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement contained in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in this Indenture, or to enforce any other legal or equitable right vested in the Trustee by this Indenture or by law.

Section 6.08. *Remedies Cumulative and Continuing.* Except as provided in the last paragraph of **‎**Section 2.06, all powers and remedies given by this **‎**Article 6 to the Trustee or to the Holders shall, to the extent permitted by law, be deemed cumulative and not exclusive of any thereof or of any other powers and remedies available to the Trustee or the Holders of the Notes, by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to enforce the performance or observance of the covenants and agreements contained in this Indenture, and no delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any of the Notes to exercise any right or power accruing upon any Default or Event of Default shall impair any such right or power, or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Default or Event of Default or any acquiescence therein; and, subject to the provisions of **‎**Section 6.06, every power and remedy given by this **‎**Article 6 or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as shall be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders.

Section 6.09. *Direction of Proceedings and Waiver of Defaults by Majority of Holders.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Notes or the Guarantee; *provided*, *however*, that (i) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture, and (ii) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction. The Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with any rule of law or with this Indenture, it determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not any such directions are unduly prejudicial to such Holders) or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any past Default or Event of Default hereunder and rescind any acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences hereunder except:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. a default in the payment of the principal (including any Tax Redemption Price, any Optional Redemption Price and any Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, or accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. a failure by the Company to deliver the consideration due upon exchange of the Notes; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;C. with respect to a Default or Event of Default in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under ‎Article 10 cannot be modified or amended without the consent of each affected Holder;

*provided* that, in the case of the rescission of any acceleration with respect to the Notes, (1) the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and (2) all existing Events of Default (other than the nonpayment of the principal of and interest on the Notes that have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration) have been cured or waived and all amounts owing to the Trustee have been paid.

Whenever any Default or Event of Default hereunder shall have been waived as permitted by this ‎Section 6.09, said Default or Event of Default shall for all purposes of the Notes and this Indenture be deemed to have been cured and to be not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

Section 6.10. *Notice of Defaults.* If a Default occurs and is continuing and is actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee (as provided in **‎**Section 7.02(j)), the Trustee shall send to all Holders as the names and addresses of such Holders appear upon the Note Register notice of such Default within 90 days after it obtains such knowledge or, if it is not actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee at such time, promptly (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days) after it becomes actually known to a Responsible Officer. Except in the case of a Default in the payment of principal of (including the Tax Redemption Price, the Optional Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) or accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on any Note or a Default in the payment or delivery of the consideration due upon exchange, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the Holders.

Section 6.11. *Undertaking to Pay Costs.* All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by its acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may, in its discretion, require, 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, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; *provided* that the provisions of this **‎**Section 6.11 (to the extent permitted by law) shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of (including, but not limited to, the Tax Redemption Price, the Optional Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price with respect to the Notes being redeemed or repurchased as provided in this Indenture) or accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on any Note on or after the due date expressed or provided for in such Note or to any suit for the enforcement of the payment or delivery of consideration due upon exchange.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In the event an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person's own affairs.

Section 7.06. *Compensation and Expenses of Trustee and Indemnity.* The Company covenants and agrees to pay to the Trustee from time to time, and the Trustee shall be entitled to, such compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder in any capacity (which shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust) as mutually agreed to in writing between the Trustee and the Company, and the Company will pay or reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances reasonably incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any of the provisions of this Indenture in any capacity hereunder (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel and of all Persons not regularly in its employ) except any such expense, disbursement or advance as shall have been caused by the Trustee's negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. The Company and the Guarantor, jointly and severally, covenant to indemnify the Trustee (which for purposes of this **‎**Section 7.06 shall include its officers, directors, employees and agents) in any capacity under this Indenture and any other document or transaction entered into in connection herewith and its agents and any authenticating agent for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense (including court costs and taxes other than taxes based on the income of the Trustee) incurred without negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction) on the part of the Trustee, its officers, directors, agents or employees, or such agent or authenticating agent, as the case may be, and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this Indenture or in any other capacity hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending themselves against any claim (whether asserted by the Company, a Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection with exercise or performance of any of their powers or duties hereunder or of enforcing this Indenture against the Company or the Guarantor (including this **‎**Section 7.06). The obligations of the Company and the Guarantor under this **‎**Section 7.06 to compensate or indemnify the Trustee and to pay or reimburse the Trustee for expenses, disbursements and advances shall be secured by a senior claim to which the Notes are hereby made subordinate on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except, subject to the effect of **‎**Section 6.05, funds held in trust herewith for the benefit of the Holders of particular Notes. Such senior claim will survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. The Trustee's right to receive payment of any amounts due under this **‎**Section 7.06 shall not be subordinate to any other liability or indebtedness of the Company. The obligations of the Company and the Guarantor under this **‎**Section 7.06 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, for any reason, including any termination or rejection hereof under any Bankruptcy Law, final payment of the Notes and the earlier resignation, removal or replacement of the Trustee. The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The indemnification provided in this **‎**Section 7.06 shall extend to the officers, directors, agents and employees of the Trustee.

Without prejudice to any other rights available to the Trustee under applicable law, when the Trustee and its agents and any authenticating agent incur expenses or render services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(h) occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws.

Section 7.07. *Officer's Certificate as Evidence.* Except as otherwise provided in **‎**Section 7.01, whenever in the administration of the provisions of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or omitting any action hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of gross negligence and willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by an Officer's Certificate delivered to the Trustee, and such Officer's Certificate, in the absence of gross negligence and willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, shall be full warrant to the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it under the provisions of this Indenture upon the faith thereof.

Section 7.08. *Eligibility of Trustee.* There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be a Person that is eligible pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act (as if the Trust Indenture Act were applicable hereto) to act as such and has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. If such Person publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of any supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this **‎**Section 7.08, the combined capital and surplus of such Person shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this **‎**Article 7.

Section 7.09. *Resignation or Removal of Trustee.* The Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the trust created hereby by giving written notice of such resignation to the Company and by mailing notice thereof to the Holders at their addresses as they shall appear on the Note Register. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by order of the Board of Directors of the Company, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and one copy to the successor trustee. If no successor trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the mailing of such notice of resignation to the Holders, the resigning Trustee may, at the expense of the Company, upon ten Business Days' notice to the Company and the Holders, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee, or any Holder who has been a bona fide holder of a Note or Notes for at least six months may, subject to the provisions of **‎**Section 6.11, on behalf of itself and all others similarly situated, petition any such court for the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, appoint a successor trustee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) In case at any time any of the following shall occur:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. the Trustee shall fail to comply with ‎Section 7.13 within a reasonable time after written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note or Notes for at least six (6) months;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of ‎Section 7.08 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such Holder, or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;C. the Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,

then, in any such case, the Company may by a Board Resolution remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by order of the Board of Directors, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor trustee, or, subject to the provisions of ‎Section 6.11, any Holder who has been a bona fide holder of a Note or Notes for at least six months may, on behalf of itself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding may at any time remove the Trustee by notifying the Trustee in writing at least 30 days prior to such removal and nominate a successor trustee that shall be deemed appointed as successor trustee unless within ten days after notice to the Company of such nomination the Company objects thereto. If no successor trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after removal of the Trustee by the Holders, the Trustee may, at the expense of the Company, upon ten Business Days' notice to the Company and the Holders, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this **‎**Section 7.09 shall become effective upon (i) payment of all fees and expenses owing to the Trustee and (ii) acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided in Section 7.10.

Section 7.10. *Acceptance by Successor Trustee.* Any successor trustee appointed as provided in **‎**Section 7.09 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to its predecessor trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor trustee shall become effective and such successor trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as Trustee herein; but, nevertheless, on the written request of the Company or of the successor trustee, the predecessor trustee shall, upon payment of any amounts then due it pursuant to the provisions of **‎**Section 7.06, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor trustee all the rights and powers of the trustee so ceasing to act. Upon request of any such successor trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments in writing for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor trustee all such rights and powers. Any trustee ceasing to act shall, nevertheless, retain a senior claim to which the Notes are hereby made subordinate on all money or property held or collected by such trustee as such pursuant to this Indenture, except for funds held in trust for the benefit of Holders of particular Notes, to secure any amounts then due it pursuant to the provisions of **‎**Section 7.06. The retiring or removed Trustee shall have no responsibility or liability for the action or inaction of any successor Trustee.

No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this ‎Section 7.10 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall be eligible under the provisions of ‎Section 7.08.

Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this ‎Section 7.10, each of the Company and the successor trustee, at the written direction and at the expense of the Company shall send or cause to be sent notice of the succession of such trustee hereunder to the Holders at their addresses as they shall appear on the Note Register. If the Company fails to mail such notice within ten days after acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Company.

Section 7.11. *Succession by Merger, Etc.* Any corporation or other entity into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation or other entity resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation or other entity succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee (including the administration of this Indenture), shall be the successor to the Trustee hereunder without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto; *provided* that in the case of any corporation or other entity succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee such corporation or other entity shall be eligible under the provisions of **‎**Section 7.08.

Section 7.12. *Trustee's Application for Instructions from the Company.* Any application by the Trustee for written instructions from the Company (other than with regard to any action proposed to be taken or omitted to be taken by the Trustee that affects the rights of the Holders of the Notes under this Indenture) may, at the option of the Trustee, set forth in writing any action proposed to be taken or omitted by the Trustee under this Indenture and the date on and/or after which such action shall be taken or such omission shall be effective. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken by, or omission of, the Trustee in accordance with a proposal included in such application on or after the date specified in such application (which date shall not be less than ten Business Days after the date any Officer actually receives such application, unless any such Officer shall have consented in writing to any earlier date), unless, prior to taking any such action (or the effective date in the case of any omission), the Trustee shall have received written instructions in accordance with this Indenture in response to such application specifying the action to be taken or omitted.

Section 7.13. *Conflicting Interests of Trustee.* If the Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall either eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to the provisions of this Indenture.

Section 7.14. *Limitation on Trustee's Liability.* Except as provided in this Article, in accepting the trusts hereby created, the entities acting as Trustee are acting solely as Trustee hereunder and not in their individual capacity and, except as provided in this Article, all Persons having any claim against the Trustee by reason of the transactions contemplated by this Indenture or any Note shall look only to the Company and the Guarantor for payment or satisfaction thereof.

Article 8<br> Concerning the Holders

Section 8.01. *Action by Holders.* Whenever in this Indenture it is provided that the Holders of a specified percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes may take any action (including the making of any demand or request, the giving of any notice, consent or waiver or the taking of any other action), the fact that at the time of taking any such action, the Holders of such specified percentage have joined therein may be evidenced (i) by any instrument or any number of instruments of similar tenor executed by Holders in person or by agent or proxy appointed in writing, or (ii) by the record of the Holders voting in favor thereof at any meeting of Holders duly called and held, or (iii) by a combination of such instrument or instruments and any such record of such a meeting of Holders. Whenever the Company or the Trustee solicits the taking of any action by the Holders of the Notes, the Company or the Trustee may, but shall not be required to, fix in advance of such solicitation, a date as the record date for determining Holders entitled to take such action. The record date if one is selected shall be not more than fifteen days prior to the date of commencement of solicitation of such action.

Section 8.02. *Proof of Execution by Holders.* Subject to the provisions of **‎**Section 7.01 and **‎**Section 7.02, proof of the execution of any instrument by a Holder or its agent or proxy shall be sufficient if made in accordance with such reasonable rules and regulations as may be prescribed by the Trustee or in such manner as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee. The holding of Notes shall be proved by the Note Register or by a certificate of the Note Registrar.

Section 8.03. *Who Are Deemed Absolute Owners.* The Company, the Trustee, any authenticating agent, any Paying Agent, any Exchange Agent and any Note Registrar may deem the Person in whose name a Note shall be registered upon the Note Register to be, and may treat it as, the absolute owner of such Note (whether or not such Note shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing thereon made by any Person other than the Company or any Note Registrar) for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal of and (subject to **‎**Section 2.03) accrued and unpaid interest on such Note, for exchange of such Note and for all other purposes; and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any Paying Agent nor any Exchange Agent nor any Note Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. All such payments or deliveries so made to any Holder, or upon its order, shall be valid, and, to the extent of sums or shares so paid or delivered, effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability for monies payable or shares deliverable upon any such Note. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or the Notes following an Event of Default, any Holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Note may directly enforce against the Company, without the consent, solicitation, proxy, authorization or any other action of the Depositary or any other Person, such Holder's right to exchange such beneficial interest for a Note in certificated form in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.

Section 8.04. *Company-Owned Notes Disregarded.* In determining whether the Holders of the requisite aggregate principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action under this Indenture, Notes that are owned by the Company or by any Affiliate of the Company shall be disregarded (from both the numerator and the denominator) and deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such determination; *provided* that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, consent, waiver or other action only Notes that a Responsible Officer actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Notes so owned that have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as outstanding for the purposes of this **‎**Section 8.04 if the pledgee shall establish to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee's right to so act with respect to such Notes and that the pledgee is not the Company or any Affiliate of the Company. In the case of a dispute as to such right, any decision by the Trustee taken upon the advice of counsel shall be full protection to the Trustee. Upon request of the Trustee, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee promptly an Officer's Certificate listing and identifying all Notes, if any, known by the Company to be owned or held by or for the account of any of the above described Persons; and, subject to **‎**Section 7.01, the Trustee shall be entitled to accept such Officer's Certificate as conclusive evidence of the facts therein set forth and of the fact that all Notes not listed therein are outstanding for the purpose of any such determination.

Section 8.05. *Revocation of Consents; Future Holders Bound.* At any time prior to (but not after) the evidencing to the Trustee, as provided in **‎**Section 8.01, of the taking of any action by the Holders of the percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes specified in this Indenture in connection with such action, any Holder of a Note that is shown by the evidence to be included in the Notes the Holders of which have consented to such action may, by filing written notice with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office and upon proof of holding as provided in **‎**Section 8.02, revoke such action so far as concerns such Note. Except as aforesaid, any such action taken by the Holder of any Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders and owners of such Note and of any Notes issued in exchange or substitution therefor or upon registration of transfer thereof, irrespective of whether any notation in regard thereto is made upon such Note or any Note issued in exchange or substitution therefor or upon registration of transfer thereof.

Upon the written request of the Company, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence of the consent of Holders as aforesaid and subject to ‎Section 10.05, the Trustee shall join with the Company and the Guarantor in the execution of such amendment, supplement or waiver unless such amendment, supplement or waiver adversely affects the Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such amendment, supplement or waiver.

Holders do not need under this ‎Section 10.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver of this Indenture. It shall be sufficient if such Holders approve the substance thereof. After any such amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, the Company shall send to the Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment, supplement or waiver, unless such a description is included in a current report on a Form 8-K (or a successor thereto) is filed by the Company.

Article 11<br> Consolidation, Merger and Sale

Section 11.01. *The Guarantor May Consolidate, Etc. on Certain Terms.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. (1) the Guarantor is the surviving Person or (2) the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (if not the Guarantor) (the "**Guarantor Permitted Successor**") (A) is a Person organized and existing under the laws of any Permitted Jurisdiction and treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and (B) expressly assumes by supplemental indenture in form satisfactory to the Trustee all of the Guarantor's obligations under the Notes, this Indenture and the Guarantee; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. immediately after giving effect to such transaction, (i) the Company is a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of the Guarantor or a Guarantor Permitted Successor and is treated as a disregarded entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes or has merged into the Guarantor or a Guarantor Permitted Successor and (ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing under this Indenture.

For purposes of this ‎Section 11.01, any sale, lease or other transfer or disposition of the assets of one or more Subsidiaries of the Guarantor to another Person that would, if such assets were held directly by the Guarantor instead of such Subsidiaries, have constituted the sale, lease or other transfer or disposition of all or substantially all of the Guarantor's consolidated assets, taken as a whole, shall be deemed to be the sale, lease or other transfer or disposition of the assets of all or substantially all of the Guarantor's consolidated assets, taken as a whole, to another Person.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Upon any such consolidation, merger, combination, or sale, lease or other transfer or disposition and upon the assumption by the Guarantor Permitted Successor, by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and in form satisfactory to the Trustee, of the due and punctual payment of the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest on all of the Notes, the due and punctual payment or, as the case may be, payment and delivery of any consideration due upon exchange of the Notes and the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantee to be performed by the Guarantor, such Guarantor Permitted Successor (if not the Guarantor) shall succeed to, and may exercise every right and power of and be substituted for, the Guarantor, with the same effect as if it had been named herein as the party of the first part, and the Guarantor shall be discharged from its obligations under the Notes, this Indenture and the Guarantee, except in the case of a lease.

Section 11.02. *Company May Consolidate, Etc. on Certain Terms.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Company shall not consolidate with or merge with or into or amalgamate with or otherwise combine with, or sell, lease or otherwise transfer or dispose of all or substantially all of the Company's and the Company's Subsidiaries' consolidated assets, taken as a whole, to, another Person, unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. (1) the Company is the surviving Person or (2) the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (if not the Company) (the "**Issuer Permitted Successor**") (A) is a Person organized under the laws of any Permitted Jurisdiction and treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes and (B) expressly assumes by supplemental indenture in form satisfactory to the Trustee all of the Company's obligations under the Notes and this Indenture; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. immediately after giving effect to such transaction, (i) the Company is a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of the Guarantor or a Guarantor Permitted Successor or has merged into the Guarantor or a Guarantor Permitted Successor and (ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing under this Indenture.

For purposes of this Section 11.02, any sale, lease or other transfer or disposition of the assets of one or more Subsidiaries of the Company to another Person that would, if such assets were held directly by the Company instead of such Subsidiaries, have constituted the sale, lease or other transfer or disposition of all or substantially all of the Company's consolidated assets, taken as a whole, shall be deemed to be the sale, lease or other transfer or disposition of the assets of all or substantially all of the Company's consolidated assets, taken as a whole, to another Person.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Upon any such consolidation, merger, combination, or sale, lease or other transfer or disposition and upon the assumption by the Issuer Permitted Successor, by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and in form satisfactory to the Trustee, of the due and punctual payment of the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest on all of the Notes, the due and punctual payment or, as the case may be, payment and delivery of any consideration due upon exchange of the Notes and the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this Indenture and the Notes to be performed by the Company, such Issuer Permitted Successor (if not the Company) shall succeed to, and may exercise every right and power of and be substituted for, the Company, with the same effect as if it had been named herein as the party of the first part, and the Company shall be discharged from its obligations under the Notes and this Indenture. Such Issuer Permitted Successor (instead of the Company, if applicable) thereupon may cause to be signed, and may issue either in its own name or in the name of the Company any or all of the Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee; and, upon the order of such Issuer Permitted Successor instead of the Company and subject to all the terms, conditions and limitations in this Indenture prescribed, the Trustee shall authenticate and shall deliver, or cause to be authenticated and delivered, any Notes that previously shall have been signed and delivered by an Officer of the Company to the Trustee for authentication, and any Notes that such Issuer Permitted Successor thereafter shall cause to be signed and delivered to the Trustee for that purpose. All the Notes so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Notes theretofore or thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Notes had been issued at the date of the execution hereof.

Section 11.03. *Opinion of Counsel and Officer's Certificate To Be Given to Trustee.* In connection with any consolidation, merger, amalgamation, combination or sale, lease or other transfer or disposition implicated by this **‎**Article 11, the Trustee shall not be required to take any action unless the Trustee shall have received an Officer's Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that any such consolidation, merger, amalgamation, combination or sale, lease or other transfer or disposition and any such assumption and such supplemental indenture (if any) complies with the provisions of this **‎**Article 11 and, if a supplemental indenture is required in connection with such transaction, an Opinion of Counsel, which shall state that the Indenture, the Guarantee and the Notes, as applicable, constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of any Guarantor Permitted Successor or any Issuer Permitted Successor, as applicable, subject to customary exceptions.

Article 12<br> Immunity of Incorporators, Shareholders, Officers and Directors

Section 12.01. *Indenture, Notes and Guarantee Solely Corporate Obligations.* No recourse for the payment of the principal of or accrued and unpaid interest on, or the payment or delivery of consideration due upon exchange of, any Note or the Guarantee, nor for any claim based thereon or otherwise in respect thereof, and no recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of the Company or the Guarantor in this Indenture or in any supplemental indenture or in any Note or the Guarantee, nor because of the creation of any indebtedness represented thereby, shall be had against any incorporator, shareholder, employee, agent, Officer or director or Subsidiary (other than the Company), as such, past, present or future, of the Company or the Guarantor or of any of their respective successor corporations or other entities, either directly or through the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective successor corporations or other entities, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise; it being expressly understood that all such liability is hereby expressly waived and released as a condition of, and as a consideration for, the execution of this Indenture and the issue of the Notes and the Guarantee.

Article 13<br> Guarantee

Section 13.01. *Guarantee.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to this **‎**Article 13, the Guarantor fully and unconditionally guarantees to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes held thereby and the obligations of the Company hereunder and thereunder, that: (i) the principal of and interest on the Notes will be promptly paid in full when due, subject to any applicable grace period, whether at the Maturity Date, by acceleration, upon redemption, upon repurchase or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and (to the extent permitted by law) interest on the Notes will be promptly paid and/or delivered in full when due upon exchange, and all other payment obligations of the Company to the Holders or the Trustee (acting in any capacity hereunder) hereunder or thereunder will be promptly paid in full and performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof, including, without limitation, the Company's obligation to pay cash consideration due upon exchange and procure or cause the delivery of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exchange of the Notes, in each case, in accordance with this Indenture upon exercise of a Holder's exchange right, on a senior unsecured basis; and (ii) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, subject to any applicable grace period, whether at the Maturity Date, by acceleration, upon redemption, upon repurchase or otherwise. Failing payment when so due of any amount so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantor will be obligated to pay the same immediately. An Event of Default with respect to the Notes under this Indenture shall constitute an event of default under the Guarantee, and shall entitle the Holders to accelerate the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder in the same manner and to the same extent as the obligations of the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance (other than complete performance) which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of the Guarantor. The Guarantor further, to the extent permitted by law, hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that the Guarantee will not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture, or pursuant to **‎**Section 13.03.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) incurred by the Trustee or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this **‎**Section 13.01.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company, the Guarantor, or any Custodian, Trustee or other similar official acting in relation to either the Company or the Guarantor, any amount paid by the Company or the Guarantor to the Trustee or such Holder, the Guarantee to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (a) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in **‎**Article 6 of this Indenture for the purposes of the Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed thereby, and (b) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in **‎**Article 6 of this Indenture, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantor for the purpose of the Guarantee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) The Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against the Company for liquidation or reorganization, should the Company become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of the Company's assets, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Notes are, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee on the Notes or the Guarantee, whether as a "voidable preference," "fraudulent transfer" or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Notes shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) Each payment to be made by the Guarantor in respect of the Guarantee shall be made without set-off, counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any kind or nature.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) For the avoidance of doubt, the Guarantee with respect to a Note is not exchangeable and shall automatically terminate when such Note is exchanged in accordance with this Indenture.

Section 13.02. *Execution and Delivery.*

The Guarantee shall be evidenced by the execution and delivery of this Indenture or a supplement to this Indenture and no notation of the Guarantee need be endorsed on any Note. The Guarantor hereby agrees that the Guarantee set forth in ‎Section 13.01 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the absence of the endorsement of any notation of the Guarantee on the Notes.

If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note, the Guarantee shall be valid nevertheless.

The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantor.

Section 13.03. *Release of the Guarantee.*

The Guarantee shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged under this Indenture upon the discharge of the Company's obligations under this Indenture in accordance with the terms of this Indenture.

At the request of the Company and upon delivery of an Officer's Certificate and Opinion of Counsel, the Trustee shall execute any documents reasonably requested by the Company in order to evidence the release of the Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee.

Section 13.04. *Limitation on Guarantor Liability.*

The Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Guarantee not constitute a fraudulent conveyance or a fraudulent transfer for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to the Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantor hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of the Guarantor under the Guarantee will be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of the Guarantor and result in the obligations of the Guarantor under the Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under federal or state law and not otherwise being void or voidable under any similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.

Section 13.05. *Subrogation.*

The Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of Holders against the Company in respect of any amounts paid by the Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of ‎Section 13.01; *provided* that, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Guarantor shall be entitled to enforce or receive any payments arising out of, or based upon, such right of subrogation until all amounts then due and payable by the Company under this Indenture or the Notes shall have been paid in full.

Section 13.06. *Benefits Acknowledged.*

The Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Indenture and that the guarantee and waivers made by it pursuant to the Guarantee are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

Section 13.07. *"Trustee" to Include Paying Agent.*

In case at any time any Paying Agent other than the Trustee shall have been appointed by the Company and be then acting hereunder, the term "Trustee" as used in this ‎Article 13 shall in each case (unless the context shall otherwise require) be construed as extending to, and including, such Paying Agent within its meaning as fully and for all intents and purposes as if such Paying Agent were named in this ‎Article 13 in place of the Trustee.

Article 14<br> Exchange of Notes

Section 14.01. *Exchange Privilege.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this **‎**Article 14, each Holder of a Note shall have the right, at such Holder's option, to exchange all or any portion of such Note (if the portion to be converted is $1,000 principal amount or an integral multiple thereof):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) subject to satisfaction of the conditions described in ‎Section 14.01(b), at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding March 15, 2030 under the circumstances and during the periods set forth in ‎Section 14.01(b); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) regardless of the conditions described in ‎Section 14.01(b), on or after March 15, 2030, at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date,

in each case, subject to certain limitations set forth in Section 14.01(c) and at an initial exchange rate of 29.1189 Ordinary Shares (subject to adjustment as provided in ‎Section 14.04 and, if applicable, ‎Section 14.03, the "**Exchange Rate**") per $1,000 principal amount of Notes (subject to the settlement provisions of ‎Section 14.02, the "**Exchange Obligation**").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) (i) Prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding March 15, 2030, a Holder may surrender all or any portion of its Notes in an Authorized Denomination for exchange at any time during the five Business Day period after any five consecutive Trading Day period (the "**Measurement Period**") in which the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, as determined following a request by a Holder of Notes in accordance with the procedures and conditions described below in this subsection **‎**(b)(i), for each Trading Day of the Measurement Period was less than 98% of the product of the Last Reported Sale Price per Ordinary Share and the Exchange Rate on each such Trading Day.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) The Bid Solicitation Agent (if other than the Company) shall have no obligation to determine the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes unless the Company has requested such determination, and the Company shall have no obligation to make such request (or, if the Company is acting as Bid Solicitation Agent, the Company shall have no obligation to determine the Trading Price) unless a Holder of at least $1,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Notes requests in writing that the Company makes such a determination and provides the Company with reasonable evidence that the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes would be less than 98% of the product of the Last Reported Sale Price per Ordinary Share and the Exchange Rate on such Trading Day. At such time, the Company shall instruct the Bid Solicitation Agent (if other than the Company) to determine, or if the Company is acting as Bid Solicitation Agent, the Company shall determine, the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes beginning on the next Trading Day following the receipt of such evidence and on each successive Trading Day until the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes is greater than or equal to 98% of the product of the Last Reported Sale Price per Ordinary Share and the Exchange Rate on such Trading Day.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) If the Trading Price condition has been met, the Company shall promptly so notify the Holders, the Trustee and the Exchange Agent (if other than the Trustee) in writing. If, at any time after the Trading Price condition has been met, the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes is greater than or equal to 98% of the product of the Last Reported Sale Price per Ordinary Share and the Exchange Rate on such Trading Day, the Company shall promptly so notify the Holders, the Trustee and the Exchange Agent (if other than the Trustee) in writing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) If the Company does not, when it is required to, instruct the Bid Solicitation Agent to (or, if the Company is acting as Bid Solicitation Agent, it does not) obtain bids, or if the Company gives such instruction to the Bid Solicitation Agent and the Bid Solicitation Agent fails to make such determination (or, if the Company is acting as Bid Solicitation Agent, it fails to make such determination), then, in either case, the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes shall be deemed to be less than 98% of the product of the Last Reported Sale Price per Ordinary Share and the Exchange Rate on each Trading Day of such failure.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (ii) If, prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding March 15, 2030, the Guarantor elects to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) issue to all or substantially all holders of Ordinary Shares any rights, options or warrants (other than pursuant to a stockholders rights plan in connection with the initial adoption by the Guarantor, so long as such rights have not separated from the Ordinary Shares and are not exercisable until the occurrence of a Trigger Event) entitling them, for a period of not more than 45 calendar days after the announcement date of such issuance, to subscribe for or purchase Ordinary Shares at a price per Ordinary Share that is less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per Ordinary Share for the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) distribute to all or substantially all holders of Ordinary Shares assets, securities or rights, options or warrants to purchase securities (in each case, other than any distribution pursuant to a shareholder's rights agreement or rights plan), which distribution has a per share value, as reasonably determined by the Guarantor's Board of Directors, exceeding 10% of the Last Reported Sale Price per Ordinary Share on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such distribution,

then, in either case, the Company shall notify all Holders of the Notes at least 50 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance or distribution. Once the Company has given such notice, the Holders may surrender all or any portion of their Notes in an Authorized Denomination for exchange at any time until the earlier of (1) the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance or distribution and (2) the Company's announcement that such issuance or distribution will not take place.

No Holder may exchange any of its Notes pursuant to this ‎Section 14.01(b)(ii) if such Holder otherwise participates in such issuance or distribution, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Ordinary Shares and as a result of holding Notes, without having to exchange its Notes as if such Holder held a number of Ordinary Shares equal to (x) the applicable Exchange Rate *multiplied by* (y) the principal amount (expressed in thousands) of Notes held by such Holder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) If, prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding March 15, 2030:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) a transaction or event that constitutes a Fundamental Change occurs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) a transaction or event that constitutes a Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) the Guarantor is a party to a consolidation, merger or other combination, statutory share exchange or sale, lease or other transfer or disposition of all or substantially all of the Guarantor's and its Subsidiaries' consolidated assets, taken as a whole, in each case, pursuant to which the Ordinary Shares would be exchanged into cash, stock, other securities or other property or assets (including any combination thereof),

then, in each case, the Holders may surrender all or any portion of their Notes in an Authorized Denomination for exchange at any time from or after the open of business on the Business Day immediately following the day the Company publicly announces such transaction (even if such transaction has not yet occurred) until the close of business on the 35th Trading Day immediately following the actual effective date of such transaction or, if such transaction constitutes a Fundamental Change, until the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the related Fundamental Change Repurchase Date.

The Company shall notify holders, the Trustee and the Exchange Agent (if other than the Trustee) in writing of the effective date of any such transaction as promptly as practicable following the date the Company publicly announces such transaction and the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to notify Holders in writing prior to such effective date, if practicable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) Prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding March 15, 2030, a Holder may surrender all or any portion of its Notes in an Authorized Denomination for exchange at any time during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on December 31, 2025 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the Last Reported Sale Price per Ordinary Share for at least 20 Trading Days (whether or not consecutive) during the period of 30 consecutive Trading Days ending on the last Trading Day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 150% of the Exchange Price on each applicable Trading Day. The Company shall determine whether the Notes are exchangeable because the condition in this ‎Section 14.01(b)(iv) is met and promptly provide written notice to the Holders, the Trustee and the Exchange Agent (if other than the Trustee).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) If the Company calls the Notes for Tax Redemption pursuant to ‎Section 16.01(a), Holders may exchange any or all of their Notes at any time from, and including, the date of the Notice of Tax Redemption until the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the related Tax Redemption Date, or, if the Company fails to pay the Tax Redemption Price, such later date on which the Company pays or duly provides for the Tax Redemption Price.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) If the Company calls all or any of the Notes for Optional Redemption pursuant to Section 16.01(b), the Holder of a Note called for Optional Redemption in respect of the relevant Notice of Optional Redemption may exchange such Note at any time from, and including, the date of the Notice of Optional Redemption until the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the related Optional Redemption Date, even if such Note is not otherwise exchangeable at such time. After such time, the right to exchange such Note on account of the Company's delivery of such Notice of Optional Redemption shall expire, unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Optional Redemption Price, in which case the Holder of such Note may exchange such Note (or a portion thereof) until the Optional Redemption Price has been paid or duly provided for. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company elects to redeem fewer than all of the outstanding Notes pursuant to Section 16.01(b), and the Holder of any Note (or any owner of a beneficial interest in any Global Note) is reasonably not able to determine, before the close of business on the 42nd Scheduled Trading Day immediately before the relevant Optional Redemption Date, whether such Note or beneficial interest, as applicable, is to be redeemed pursuant to such Optional Redemption, then such Holder or owner, as applicable, shall be entitled to exchange such Note or beneficial interest, as applicable, at any time before the close of business on the Business Day immediately prior to such Optional Redemption Date, unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Optional Redemption Price, in which case such Holder or owner, as applicable, shall be entitled to exchange such Note or beneficial interest, as applicable, until the Optional Redemption Price has been paid or duly provided for, and each such exchange shall be deemed to be of a Note called for Optional Redemption pursuant to Section 16.01(b).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or the Notes, no Holder of the Notes shall be entitled to receive Ordinary Shares upon exchange of such Notes to the extent that such receipt would cause a violation of the Ownership Limitation and any purported delivery of Ordinary Shares upon exchange of such Notes shall be void and have no effect to the extent that such delivery would result in a violation of the Ownership Limitation. If any delivery of Ordinary Shares owed to a Holder upon exchange of Notes is not made, in whole or in part, as a result of the limitations described in this Section 14.01(c), the Company's obligation to make such delivery shall not be extinguished, and the Company shall deliver such Ordinary Shares (but only to the extent that such delivery would not cause a violation of the Ownership Limitation) as promptly as practicable after the applicable Holder gives notice to the Company and the Company determines that such delivery would not result in a violation of the Ownership Limitation, *provided* that to the extent a purported delivery of any such Ordinary Shares owed to a Holder upon exchange of Notes that would cause a violation of the Ownership Limitation is made, such Ordinary Shares (to the extent that such delivery would result in a violation of the Ownership Limitation) shall be subject to the terms of the Guarantor's bye-laws (as they may be further amended) automatically designated and treated as "**Excess Shares**" (as such term is defined in the Guarantor's bye-laws, as it may be further amended, and as used therein) and shall be transferred to the Excess Share Trustee (as such term is defined in the Guarantor's bye-laws, as it may be further amended), for the benefit of the Charitable Beneficiary (as such term is defined in the Guarantor's bye-laws, as it may be further amended). A Holder of Notes that were exchanged into excess shares shall have no rights in such Excess Shares, other than a right to receive certain payments upon liquidation, dissolution or, in certain circumstances, disposition of such excess shares, and shall not be permitted to receive any amount that reflects any appreciation in the excess shares during the period that such excess shares were outstanding.

Section 14.02. *Exchange Procedure; Settlement Upon Exchange.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to this **‎**Section 14.02, **‎**Section 14.03(b) and **‎**Section 14.07(a), upon exchange of any Note, the Company shall, at its election, pay or deliver, as the case may be, to the exchanging Holder, in full satisfaction of its Exchange Obligation, either solely cash ("**Cash Settlement**") or a combination of cash and Ordinary Shares ("**Combination Settlement**"), as set forth in this **‎**Section 14.02.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) All exchanges for which the relevant Exchange Date occurs on or after March 15, 2030, and all exchanges occurring after the date of the Company's issuance of a Notice of Tax Redemption or a Notice of Optional Redemption and prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the related Tax Redemption Date or Optional Redemption Date, as applicable, shall be settled using the same Settlement Method (including the same relative proportion of cash and, if applicable, Ordinary Shares). Except for any exchanges for which the relevant Exchange Date occurs on or after March 15, 2030, or after the date of the Company's issuance of a Notice of Tax Redemption or a Notice of Optional Redemption and prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the related Tax Redemption Date or Optional Redemption Date, as applicable, the Company shall use the same Settlement Method (including the same relative proportion of cash and, if applicable, Ordinary Shares) for all exchanges with the same Exchange Date, but the Company shall not have any obligation to use the same Settlement Method with respect to exchanges with different Exchange Dates.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) If the Company elects a Settlement Method, the Company shall deliver notice to Holders through the Exchange Agent of such Settlement Method the Company has selected no later than the close of business on the Trading Day immediately following the related Exchange Date (or (i) in the case of any exchanges for which the relevant Exchange Date occurs on or after March 15, 2030, no later than March 15, 2030, or (ii) in the case of any exchanges occurring after the date of issuance of a Notice of Tax Redemption and prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the related Tax Redemption Date, in such Notice of Tax Redemption, or (iii) in the case of any exchanges occurring after the date of issuance of a Notice of Optional Redemption and prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the related Optional Redemption Date, in such Notice of Optional Redemption). If the Company does not elect a Settlement Method prior to the deadline set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Company shall no longer have the right to elect a Settlement Method with respect to that Exchange Date and the Company shall be deemed to have elected the Default Settlement Method with respect to such exchange. Any such notice delivered by the Company pursuant to this Section 14.02(a)(ii) shall specify the relevant Settlement Method and in the case of an election of Combination Settlement, the relevant notice shall indicate the Specified Dollar Amount per $1,000 principal amount of Notes. If the Company timely elects Combination Settlement (or is deemed to have elected Combination Settlement) in respect of an exchange, the related Specified Dollar Amount shall be at least equal to $1,000 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes. If the Company timely elects Combination Settlement (or is deemed to have elected Combination Settlement) in respect of an exchange but does not timely notify the exchanging Holders of the applicable Specified Dollar Amount, then the Specified Dollar Amount for such exchange shall be deemed to be $1,000 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company's failure to timely select a Settlement Method or specify a Specified Dollar Amount shall not constitute a Default under this Indenture.

The Company may, from time to time, by notice to the Holders and the Trustee prior to March 15, 2030, change the Default Settlement Method. In addition, the Company may, by notice to the Holders prior to March 15, 2030, irrevocably fix the Settlement Method, to any Settlement Method that the Company is then permitted to elect, that will apply to all exchanges of Notes with an Exchange Date that is on or after the date the Company sends such notice. Concurrently with providing notice to all Holders of a change in the Default Settlement Method or an election to irrevocably fix the Settlement Method, the Company shall promptly issue a current report on Form 8-K (or a successor thereto) or press release announcing that the Company has made such change to the Default Settlement Method or elected to irrevocably fix the Settlement Method, as the case may be. If the Company changes the Default Settlement Method or the Company irrevocably elects to fix the Settlement Method, in either case, to Combination Settlement with an ability to continue to set the Specified Dollar Amount per $1,000 principal amount of Notes at or above a specific amount, the Company shall, after the date of such change or election, as the case may be, notify Holders exchanging their Notes and the Trustee of such Specified Dollar Amount no later than the relevant deadline for election of a specified Settlement Method as set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph, or, if the Company does not timely notify Holders, such Specified Dollar Amount shall be the specific amount set forth in the election notice or, if no specific amount was set forth in the election notice, such Specified Dollar Amount shall be $1,000 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes. In no event may the Company elect Combination Settlement with a Specified Dollar Amount that is less than $1,000 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such change in the Default Settlement Method or irrevocable election shall affect any Settlement Method theretofore elected (or deemed to be elected) with respect to any Note pursuant to this Section 14.02. For the avoidance of doubt, such an irrevocable election, if made, shall be effective without the need to amend this Indenture or the Notes, including pursuant to the provisions described in Section 10.01(l). However, the Company may nonetheless choose to execute such an amendment at the Company's option.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) The cash or, if applicable, combination of cash and Ordinary Shares payable or deliverable, as the case may be, by the Company in respect of any exchange of Notes (the "**Settlement Amount**") shall be computed by the Company as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) if the Company elects to satisfy its Exchange Obligation in respect of such exchange by Cash Settlement, the Company shall pay to the exchanging Holder in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes being exchanged cash in an amount equal to the sum of the Daily Exchange Values for each of the 40 consecutive VWAP Trading Days during the related Observation Period; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) if the Company elects (or is deemed to have elected) to satisfy its Exchange Obligation in respect of such exchange by Combination Settlement, the Company shall pay or deliver, as the case may be, to the exchanging Holder in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes being exchanged a Settlement Amount equal to the sum of the Daily Settlement Amounts for each of the 40 consecutive VWAP Trading Days during the related Observation Period (plus cash in lieu of any fractional Ordinary Shares issuable upon exchange).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) The Daily Settlement Amounts (if applicable) and the Daily Exchange Values (if applicable) shall be determined by the Company promptly following the last VWAP Trading Day of the related Observation Period. Promptly after such determination of the Daily Settlement Amounts or the Daily Exchange Values, as the case may be, and, if applicable, the amount of cash payable in lieu of any fractional shares, the Company shall notify the Trustee and the Exchange Agent (if other than the Trustee) of the Daily Settlement Amounts or the Daily Exchange Values, as the case may be, and, if applicable, the amount of cash payable in lieu of fractional shares. The Trustee and the Exchange Agent (if other than the Trustee) shall have no responsibility for any such determination.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) To exchange a beneficial interest in a Global Note (which exchange is irrevocable), the holder of such beneficial interest must:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) comply with the Applicable Procedures for converting a beneficial interest in a Global Note;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) in accordance with the Applicable Procedures, complete, manually sign and deliver an irrevocable notice to the Exchange Agent as set forth in the Form of Notice of Exchange (or a facsimile thereof) (a "**Notice of Exchange**");

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) if required, pay all transfer or similar taxes (subject to Section 14.02(f)); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) if required, pay funds equal to any interest payable on the next Interest Payment Date to which such Holder is not entitled as set forth in Section 14.02(h); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) To exchange a Certificated Note, the Holder must:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) complete, manually sign and deliver an irrevocable Notice of Exchange to the Exchange Agent and deliver such Note to the Exchange Agent for surrender to the Company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) if required, furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) if required, pay all transfer or similar taxes (subject to Section 14.02(f)); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) if required, pay funds equal to any interest payable on the next Interest Payment Date to which such Holder is not entitled as set forth in Section 14.02(h).

The Trustee (and if different, the Exchange Agent) shall notify the Company of any exchange pursuant to this ‎Article 14 on the Exchange Date for such exchange.

If a Holder has already delivered a Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice with respect to a Note, such Holder may not surrender such Note for exchange until such Holder has validly withdrawn such Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice (or, in the case of a Global Note, has complied with the Applicable Procedures with respect to such a withdrawal) in accordance with the terms of ‎Section 15.03. If a Holder has already delivered a Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice, such Holder's right to withdraw such notice and exchange the Notes that are subject to repurchase will terminate at the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the relevant Fundamental Change Repurchase Date. If the Company has designated a Tax Redemption Date pursuant to Section 16.02(a) or an Optional Redemption Date pursuant to Section 16.02(b), a Holder that complies with the requirements for exchange set forth in ‎Section 14.02(b) (or, if applicable, Section 14.02(c)) shall be deemed to have delivered a notice of its election not to have its Notes so redeemed pursuant to such Tax Redemption or Optional Redemption, as applicable.

If more than one Note shall be surrendered for exchange at one time by the same Holder, the Exchange Obligation with respect to such Notes shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes (or specified portions thereof to the extent permitted thereby) so surrendered.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) A Note shall be deemed to have been exchanged immediately prior to the close of business on the date (the "**Exchange Date**") that the Holder has complied with the requirements set forth in **‎**Section 14.02(b) (or, if applicable, Section 14.02(c)) above.

Subject to the provisions of ‎Section 14.03(b) and ‎Section 14.07(a), the Company shall pay or deliver, as the case may be, the Settlement Amount due in respect of the Exchange Obligation on the third Business Day immediately following the last VWAP Trading Day of the relevant Observation Period.

If any Ordinary Shares are due to exchanging Holders, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued, and deliver to such Holder, or such Holder's nominee or nominees, certificates or a book-entry transfer through the Depositary, as the case may be, for the full number of Ordinary Shares to which such Holder shall be entitled in satisfaction of the Company's Exchange Obligation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) In case any Certificated Note shall be surrendered for partial exchange, in an Authorized Denomination, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to or upon the written order of the Holder so surrendered a new Note or Notes in an Authorized Denomination in an aggregate principal amount equal to the un-exchanged portion of the surrendered Note, without payment of any service charge by the exchanging Holder but, if required by the Company or Trustee, with payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge required by law or that may be imposed in connection therewith as a result of the name of the Holder of the new Notes issued upon such exchange being different from the name of the Holder of the old Notes surrendered for such exchange.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) If a Holder submits a Note for exchange, the Company shall pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on the issuance or delivery of the Ordinary Shares upon exchange of the Notes, unless the tax is due because the Holder requests such Ordinary Shares to be issued in a name other than the Holder's name, in which case the Holder shall pay that tax.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Upon the exchange of an interest in a Global Note, the Trustee, or the Custodian of the Global Note at the direction of the Trustee, shall make a notation in the books and records of the Trustee and Depositary as to the reduction in the principal amount represented thereby. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of any exchange of Notes effected through any Exchange Agent other than the Trustee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) Upon exchange, a Holder shall not receive any separate cash payment for accrued and unpaid interest, if any, except as set forth below. The Company's settlement of the Exchange Obligation shall be deemed to satisfy in full its obligation to pay the principal amount of the Note and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the relevant Exchange Date. As a result, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the relevant Exchange Date shall be deemed to be paid in full rather than cancelled, extinguished or forfeited. Upon an exchange of Notes, accrued and unpaid interest shall be deemed to be paid first out of the cash paid upon such exchange. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Notes are exchanged after the close of business on a Regular Record Date for the payment of interest but prior to the open of business on the immediately following Interest Payment Date, Holders of such Notes as of the close of business on such Regular Record Date shall receive the full amount of interest payable on such Notes on the corresponding Interest Payment Date notwithstanding the exchange. Notes surrendered for exchange during the period from the close of business on any Regular Record Date to the open of business on the immediately following Interest Payment Date must be accompanied by funds equal to the amount of interest payable on the Notes so exchanged on the corresponding Interest Payment Date; *provided* that no such payment shall be required (1) for exchanges following the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date; (2) if the Company has specified a Tax Redemption Date that is after a Regular Record Date and on or prior to the Business Day immediately following the corresponding Interest Payment Date (or, if such Interest Payment Date is not a Business Day, the second Business Day immediately following such Interest Payment Date); (3) if the Company has specified an Optional Redemption Date that is after a Regular Record Date and on or prior to the Business Day immediately following the corresponding Interest Payment Date (or, if such Interest Payment Date is not a Business Day, the second Business Day immediately following such Interest Payment Date); (4) if the Company has specified a Fundamental Change Repurchase Date that is after a Regular Record Date and on or prior to the Business Day immediately following the corresponding Interest Payment Date (or, if such Interest Payment Date is not a Business Day, the second Business Day immediately following such Interest Payment Date); or (5) to the extent of any Defaulted Amounts, if any Defaulted Amounts exist at the time of exchange with respect to such Note. Therefore, for the avoidance of doubt, all Holders of record on the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date shall receive the full interest payment due on the Maturity Date in cash regardless of whether their Notes have been exchanged following such Regular Record Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The Person in whose name any Ordinary Shares delivered upon exchange is registered shall become the holder of record of such Ordinary Shares as of the close of business on the last VWAP Trading Day of the relevant Observation Period if the Company elects (or is deemed to have elected) Combination Settlement. Upon an exchange of Notes, such Person shall no longer be a Holder of such Notes surrendered for exchange; *provided* that (a) the exchanging Holder shall have the right to receive the Settlement Amount due upon exchange and (b) in the case of an exchange between a Regular Record Date and the corresponding Interest Payment Date, the Holder of record as of the close of business on such Regular Record Date shall have the right to receive the interest payable on such Interest Payment Date, in accordance with Section 14.02(h).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) The Company shall not deliver any fractional Ordinary Shares upon exchange of the Notes and shall instead pay cash in lieu of any fractional Ordinary Shares deliverable upon exchange in an amount based on the Daily VWAP on the last VWAP Trading Day of the relevant Observation Period if the Company elects (or is deemed to have elected) Combination Settlement. For each Note surrendered for exchange, if the Company has elected (or is deemed to have elected) Combination Settlement, the full number of Ordinary Shares that shall be issued upon exchange thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate Daily Settlement Amounts for the relevant Observation Period and, if applicable, any fractional Ordinary Shares remaining after such computation shall be paid in cash.

Section 14.03. *Increase in Exchange Rate Upon Exchange in Connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, a Tax Redemption or an Optional Redemption.* (a) If the Event Effective Date of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs prior to the Maturity Date or the Company delivers a Notice of Tax Redemption or a Notice of Optional Redemption and, in any such case, a Holder elects to exchange its Notes in connection with such Make-Whole Fundamental Change, Notice of Tax Redemption or Notice of Optional Redemption, the Company will, under the circumstances described below, increase the Exchange Rate for the Notes so surrendered for exchange by a number of additional Ordinary Shares (the "**Additional Shares**"), as described below. An exchange of Notes will be deemed for these purposes to be "in connection with" a Make-Whole Fundamental Change if the relevant Notice of Exchange (or, in the case of a Global Note, the relevant Notice of Exchange in accordance with the Applicable Procedures) is received by the Exchange Agent during the period from, and including, the open of business on the Event Effective Date of the Make-Whole Fundamental Change up to, and including, the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the related Fundamental Change Repurchase Date (or in the case of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change that would have been a Fundamental Change but for (x) the *proviso* in clause (2) of the definition thereof or (y) the Adequate Cash Exchange Provisions, the 35th Trading Day immediately following the Event Effective Date of such Make-Whole Fundamental Change) (such period, the "**Make-Whole Fundamental Change Period**"). An exchange of Notes will be deemed for these purposes to be "in connection with" a Tax Redemption or an Optional Redemption if the relevant Notice of Exchange (or, in the case of a Global Note, the relevant Notice of Exchange in accordance with the Applicable Procedures) is received by the Exchange Agent during the period from, and including, the open of business on the date of the Notice of Tax Redemption or the Notice of Optional Redemption, as applicable, up to, and including, the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the related Tax Redemption Date or Optional Redemption Date, as applicable, or, if the Company fails to pay the Tax Redemption Price or Optional Redemption Price, as applicable, such later date on which the Company pays the Tax Redemption Price or the Optional Redemption Price.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Upon surrender of Notes for exchange in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, Notice of Tax Redemption or Notice of Optional Redemption, the Company shall, at its option, satisfy its Exchange Obligation by Cash Settlement or Combination Settlement in accordance with Section 14.02 (after giving effect to any increase in the Exchange Rate required by this **‎**Section 14.03); *provided*, *however*, that, if the consideration for Ordinary Shares in any Make-Whole Fundamental Change described in clause (2) of the definition of Fundamental Change is composed entirely of cash, for any exchange of Notes following the Event Effective Date of such Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the Exchange Obligation shall be calculated based solely on the Stock Price for the transaction and shall be deemed to be an amount of cash per $1,000 principal amount of exchanged Notes equal to (i) the Exchange Rate (including any increase to reflect the Additional Shares as described in this **‎**Section 14.03), *multiplied by* (ii) such Stock Price. In such event, the Exchange Obligation shall be determined and paid to Holders in cash on the third Business Day following the Exchange Date. The Company shall notify Holders, the Trustee and the Exchange Agent (if other than the Trustee) in writing of the Event Effective Date of any Make-Whole Fundamental Change (the "**Make-Whole Fundamental Change Company Notice**") and, no later than five Business Days after such Event Effective Date, (i) issue a press release announcing such Event Effective Date or disclose the Event Effective Date in a current report on Form 8-K and (ii) post the Event Effective Date on the Guarantor's public website.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The number of Additional Shares, if any, by which the Exchange Rate shall be increased in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, Notice of Tax Redemption or Notice of Optional Redemption shall be determined by reference to the table below, based on:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. in the case of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the date on which the Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs or becomes effective; in the case of a Tax Redemption, the date on the Notice of Tax Redemption; or, in the case of an Optional Redemption, the date on the Notice of Optional Redemption (in each case, the "**Event Effective Date**"); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. in the case of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the price paid (or deemed to be paid) per Ordinary Share in the Make-Whole Fundamental Change, as described in the succeeding paragraph; in the case of a Tax Redemption, the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per Ordinary Share over the five Trading Day period, ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of such Notice of Tax Redemption; or, in the case of an Optional Redemption, the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per Ordinary Share over the five Trading Day period, ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of such Notice of Optional Redemption (in each case, the "**Stock Price**").

If the holders of the Ordinary Shares receive in exchange for their Ordinary Shares only cash in a Make-Whole Fundamental Change described in clause (2) of the definition of Fundamental Change, the Stock Price shall be the cash amount paid per Ordinary Share. Otherwise, the Stock Price shall be the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per Ordinary Share over the five Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Event Effective Date of the Make-Whole Fundamental Change.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the table below shall be adjusted as of any date on which the Exchange Rate is otherwise adjusted. The adjusted Stock Prices shall equal (i) the Stock Prices applicable immediately prior to such adjustment, *multiplied by* (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Exchange Rate immediately prior to such adjustment giving rise to the Stock Price adjustment and the denominator of which is the Exchange Rate as so adjusted. The number of Additional Shares set forth in the table below shall be adjusted in the same manner and at the same time as the Exchange Rate as set forth in **‎**Section 14.04.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The following table sets forth the number of Additional Shares by which the Exchange Rate shall be increased per $1,000 principal amount of Notes pursuant to this **‎**Section 14.03 for each Stock Price and Event Effective Date set forth below:

The exact Stock Price and/or Event Effective Date may not be set forth in the table above, in which case:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. if the Stock Price is between two Stock Prices in the table or the Event Effective Date is between two Effective Dates in the table, the number of Additional Shares by which the Exchange Rate shall be increased shall be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the number of Additional Shares set forth for the higher and lower Stock Prices and the earlier and later Event Effective Dates, as applicable, based on a 365 or 366-day year, as the case may be;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. if the Stock Price is greater than $160.00 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the table above pursuant to subsection (d) above), no Additional Shares shall be added to the Exchange Rate; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;C. if the Stock Price is less than $24.53 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the table above pursuant to subsection (d) above), no Additional Shares shall be added to the Exchange Rate.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Exchange Rate per $1,000 principal amount of Notes exceed 40.7664 Ordinary Shares, subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Exchange Rate pursuant to ‎Section 14.04.

For the avoidance of doubt, if a Holder converts its Notes prior to the Event Effective Date of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, then, whether or not such Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs, such Holder shall not be entitled to an increased Exchange Rate in connection with such Make-Whole Fundamental Change.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Nothing in this **‎**Section 14.03 shall prevent an adjustment to the Exchange Rate pursuant to **‎**Section 14.04 in respect of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change.

Section 14.04. *Adjustment of Exchange Rate.* The Exchange Rate shall be adjusted from time to time by the Company if any of the following events occurs, except that the Company shall not make any adjustments to the Exchange Rate if Holders of the Notes participate (other than in the case of (x) a share split or share combination or (y) a tender or exchange offer), at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of Ordinary Shares and solely as a result of holding the Notes, in any of the transactions described in this **‎**Section 14.04, without having to exchange their Notes, as if they held a number of Ordinary Shares equal to (i) the Exchange Rate, *multiplied by* (ii) the principal amount (expressed in thousands) of Notes held by such Holder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If the Guarantor exclusively issues Ordinary Shares as a dividend or distribution on Ordinary Shares, or if the Guarantor effects a share split or share combination, the Exchange Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

![](tm2525857d1_8kimg001.jpg)

where,

ER<sub>0</sub> = the Exchange Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date of such dividend or distribution, or immediately prior to the open of business on the Effective Date of such share split or share combination, as applicable;

ER<sub>1</sub> = the Exchange Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date or Effective Date, as applicable;

OS<sub>0</sub> = the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date or Effective Date, as applicable, before giving effect to such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination; and

OS<sub>1</sub> = the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination.

Any adjustment made under this ‎Section 14.04(a) shall become effective immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution, or immediately after the open of business on the Effective Date for such share split or share combination, as applicable. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this ‎Section 14.04(a) is declared and results in an adjustment under this ‎Section 14.04(a) but is not so paid or made, the Exchange Rate shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Guarantor's Board of Directors determines not to pay such dividend or distribution, to the Exchange Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If the Guarantor issues to all or substantially all holders of the Ordinary Shares any rights, options or warrants entitling them, for a period of not more than 45 calendar days after the announcement date of such issuance, to subscribe for or purchase Ordinary Shares at a price per Ordinary Share that is less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per Ordinary Share for the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance, the Exchange Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

![](tm2525857d1_8kimg002.jpg)

where,

ER<sub>0</sub> = the Exchange Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance;

ER<sub>1</sub> = the Exchange Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date;

OS<sub>0</sub> = the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date;

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| X | = | the total number of Ordinary Shares issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants; and |

---

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| Y | = | the number of Ordinary Shares equal to the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants, *divided by* the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per Ordinary Share over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of the issuance of such rights, options or warrants. |

---

Any increase made under this ‎Section 14.04(b) shall be made successively whenever any such rights, options or warrants are issued and shall become effective immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance. To the extent that such rights, options or warrants are not exercised prior to their expiration or Ordinary Shares are not delivered after the exercise or expiration of such rights, options or warrants, the Exchange Rate shall be decreased to the Exchange Rate that would then be in effect had the increase with respect to the issuance of such rights, options or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of Ordinary Shares actually delivered. If such rights, options or warrants are not so issued, the Exchange Rate shall be decreased, effective as of the date the Guarantor's Board of Directors determines not to issue such rights, options or warrants, to the Exchange Rate that would then be in effect if such Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance had not occurred.

For purposes of this ‎Section 14.04(b) and ‎Section 14.01(b)(ii)(A), in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle the holders of Ordinary Shares to subscribe for or purchase Ordinary Shares at less than such average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance, and in determining the aggregate offering price of such Ordinary Shares, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Guarantor for such rights, options or warrants and any amount payable on exercise or exchange thereof, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Guarantor's Board of Directors.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If the Guarantor distributes shares of its share capital, evidences of its indebtedness, other assets or property of the Guarantor or rights, options or warrants to acquire its share capital or other securities, to all or substantially all holders of the Ordinary Shares, excluding:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. dividends, distributions or issuances as to which an adjustment was effected pursuant to ‎Section 14.04(a) or ‎Section 14.04(b);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. rights issued under a shareholder rights plan (except as set forth below);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;C. dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash as to which the provisions set forth in ‎Section 14.04(d) apply;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;D. any dividends and distributions in connection with a Specified Corporate Event described under ‎Section 14.07; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;E. Spin-Offs as to which the provisions set forth below in this ‎Section 14.04(c) shall apply;

(any of such shares of share capital, evidences of indebtedness, other assets or property or rights, options or warrants to acquire share capital or other securities of the Guarantor, the "**Distributed Property**"), then the Exchange Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

![](tm2525857d1_8kimg003.jpg)

where,

ER<sub>0</sub> = the Exchange Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;

ER<sub>1</sub> = the Exchange Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date;

SP<sub>0</sub> = the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Ordinary Shares over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution; and

FMV = the fair market value (as determined by the Guarantor's Board of Directors) of the Distributed Property so distributed with respect to each outstanding Ordinary Share on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution.

Any increase made under the portion of this ‎Section 14.04(c) above shall become effective immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution. If such distribution is not so paid or made, the Exchange Rate shall be decreased, effective as of the date the Guarantor's Board of Directors determines not to pay or make such distribution, to be the Exchange Rate that would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if "FMV" (as defined above) is equal to or greater than "SP<sub>0</sub>" (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder of a Note shall receive, in respect of each $1,000 principal amount thereof, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Ordinary Shares receive the Distributed Property, the amount and kind of Distributed Property that such Holder would have received if such Holder owned a number of Ordinary Shares equal to the Exchange Rate in effect on the Ex-Dividend Date for the distribution.

With respect to an adjustment pursuant to this ‎Section 14.04(c) where there has been a payment of a dividend or other distribution on the Ordinary Shares of capital of any class or series, or similar equity interest, of or relating to a Subsidiary or other business unit of the Guarantor, that are, or, when issued, will be, listed or admitted for trading on a U.S. national securities exchange (a "**Spin-Off**"), the Exchange Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

![](tm2525857d1_8kimg004.jpg)

where,

ER<sub>0</sub> = the Exchange Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;

ER<sub>1</sub> = the Exchange Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| FMV<sub>0</sub> | = | the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the capital stock or similar equity interest distributed to holders of the Ordinary Shares applicable to one Ordinary Share (determined by reference to the definition of Last Reported Sale Price as set forth in ‎Section 1.01 as if references therein to the Ordinary Shares were to such capital stock or similar equity interest) over the first 10 consecutive Trading Day period after, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date of the Spin-Off (the "**Valuation Period**"); and |

---

MP<sub>0</sub> = the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per Ordinary Shares over the Valuation Period.

The increase to the Exchange Rate under the preceding paragraph will occur at the close of business on the last Trading Day of the Valuation Period; *provided* that in respect of any exchange of Notes, for any Trading Day that falls within the relevant Observation Period for such exchange and within the Valuation Period, the reference to "10" in the preceding paragraph shall be deemed replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed between the Ex-Dividend Date for such Spin-Off and such Trading Day in determining the Exchange Rate as of such Trading Day. In addition, if the Ex-Dividend Date for such Spin-Off is after the 10th Trading Day immediately preceding, and including, the end of any Observation Period in respect of an exchange of Notes, references to "10" or "10th" in the preceding paragraph and this paragraph shall be deemed to be replaced, solely in respect of that exchange, with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date for such Spin-Off to, and including, the last Trading Day of such Observation Period. If such Spin-Off does not occur, the Exchange Rate shall be decreased, effective as of the date the Guarantors' Board of Directors determines not to consummate such Spin-Off, to be the Exchange Rate that would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared, effective as of the date on which Guarantors' Board of Directors (or its designee) determines not to consummate such spin-off.

For purposes of this **‎**Section 14.04(c) (and subject in all respects to **‎**Section 14.11), rights, options or warrants distributed by the Guarantor to all holders of Ordinary Shares entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Guarantor's share capital, including Ordinary Shares (either initially or under certain circumstances), which rights, options or warrants, until the occurrence of a specified event or events ("**Trigger Event**"):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. are deemed to be transferred with such Ordinary Shares;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. are not exercisable; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;C. are also issued in respect of future issuances of the Ordinary Shares,

shall be deemed not to have been distributed for purposes of this ‎Section 14.04(c) (and no adjustment to the Exchange Rate under this ‎Section 14.04(c) will be required) until the occurrence of the earliest Trigger Event, whereupon such rights, options or warrants shall be deemed to have been distributed and an appropriate adjustment (if any is required) to the Exchange Rate shall be made under this ‎Section 14.04(c). If any such right, option or warrant, including any such existing rights, options or warrants distributed prior to the date of this Indenture, are subject to events, upon the occurrence of which such rights, options or warrants become exercisable to purchase different securities, evidences of indebtedness or other assets, then the date of the occurrence of any and each such event shall be deemed to be the date of distribution and Ex-Dividend Date with respect to new rights, options or warrants with such rights (in which case the existing rights, options or warrants shall be deemed to terminate and expire on such date without exercise by any of the holders thereof). In addition, in the event of any distribution (or deemed distribution) of rights, options or warrants, or any Trigger Event or other event (of the type described in the immediately preceding sentence) with respect thereto that was counted for purposes of calculating a distribution amount for which an adjustment to the Exchange Rate under this ‎Section 14.04(c) was made:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) in the case of any such rights, options or warrants that shall all have been redeemed or purchased without exercise by any holders thereof, upon such final redemption or purchase (x) the Exchange Rate shall be readjusted as if such rights, options or warrants had not been issued and (y) the Exchange Rate shall then again be readjusted to give effect to such distribution, deemed distribution or Trigger Event, as the case may be, as though it were a cash distribution, equal to the per share redemption or purchase price received by a holder or holders of Ordinary Shares with respect to such rights, options or warrants (assuming such holder had retained such rights, options or warrants), made to all holders of Ordinary Shares as of the date of such redemption or purchase, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) in the case of such rights, options or warrants that shall have expired or been terminated without exercise by any holders thereof, the Exchange Rate shall be readjusted as if such rights, options and warrants had not been issued.

For purposes of **‎**Section 14.04(a), **‎**Section 14.04(b) and this **‎**Section 14.04(c), any dividend or distribution to which this **‎**Section 14.04(c) is applicable that also includes one or both of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. a dividend or distribution of Ordinary Shares to which ‎Section 14.04(a) is applicable (the "**Clause A Distribution**"); or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. a dividend or distribution of rights, options or warrants to which ‎Section 14.04(b) is applicable (the "**Clause B Distribution**"),

then:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) such dividend or distribution, other than the Clause A Distribution and the Clause B Distribution, shall be deemed to be a dividend or distribution to which this ‎Section 14.04(c) is applicable (the "**Clause C Distribution**") and any Exchange Rate adjustment required by this ‎Section 14.04(c) with respect to such Clause C Distribution shall then be made; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the Clause A Distribution and Clause B Distribution shall be deemed to immediately follow the Clause C Distribution and any Exchange Rate adjustment required by ‎Section 14.04(a) and ‎Section 14.04(b) with respect thereto shall then be made, except that, if determined by the Company (I) the "Ex-Dividend Date" of the Clause A Distribution and the Clause B Distribution shall be deemed to be the Ex-Dividend Date of the Clause C Distribution and (II) any Ordinary Shares included in the Clause A Distribution or Clause B Distribution shall be deemed not to be "outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date or Effective Date" within the meaning of ‎Section 14.04(a) or "outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date" within the meaning of ‎Section 14.04(b).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If any cash dividend or distribution is made to all or substantially all holders of Ordinary Shares, the Exchange Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

![](tm2525857d1_8kimg005.jpg)

where,

ER<sub>0</sub> = the Exchange Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution;

ER<sub>1</sub> = the Exchange Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution;

SP<sub>0</sub> = the Last Reported Sale Price per Ordinary Share on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution;

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| C | = | the amount in cash per share the Guarantor distributes to all or substantially all holders of the Ordinary Shares. |

---

Any increase made pursuant to this ‎Section 14.04(d) shall become effective immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution. If such dividend or distribution is not so paid, the Exchange Rate shall be decreased, effective as of the date the Guarantor's Board of Directors determines not to make or pay such dividend or distribution, to the Exchange Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if "C" (as defined above) is equal to or greater than "SP<sub>0</sub>" (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder of a Note shall receive, for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Ordinary Shares, the amount of cash that such Holder would have received if such Holder owned a number of Ordinary Shares equal to the Exchange Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such cash dividend or distribution.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) If the Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries makes a payment in respect of a tender or exchange offer for the Ordinary Shares, to the extent that the cash and value of any other consideration included in the payment per share of Ordinary Shares exceeds the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per Ordinary Share over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period commencing on, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the last date on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer (such date, the "**Expiration Date**"), the Exchange Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

![](tm2525857d1_8kimg006.jpg)

where,

ER<sub>0</sub> = the Exchange Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the 10th Trading Day immediately following, and including the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date;

ER<sub>1</sub> = the Exchange Rate in effect immediately after the close of business on the 10th Trading Day immediately following, and including the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date;

AC = the aggregate value of all cash and any other consideration (as determined by the Guarantor's Board of Directors) paid or payable for shares purchased or exchanged in such tender or exchange offer;

OS<sub>0</sub> = the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Expiration Date (prior to giving effect to the purchase of all shares accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer);

OS<sub>1</sub> = the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after the Expiration Date (after giving effect to the purchase of all shares accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer); and

SP<sub>1</sub> = the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per Ordinary Share over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period commencing on, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date.

The Increase to the Exchange Rate under this ‎Section 14.04(e) shall occur at the close of business on the 10th Trading Day immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date; *provided* that in respect to any exchange of Notes, for any Trading Day that falls within the relevant Observation Period for such exchange and within the 10 Trading Days immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date of any tender or exchange offer, references to "10" or "10th" in the preceding paragraph shall be deemed replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed between the Expiration Date of such tender or exchange offer and such Trading Day in determining the Exchange Rate as of such Trading Day. In addition, if the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires is after the 10th Trading Day immediately preceding, and including, the end of any Observation Period in respect of an exchange of Notes, references to "10" or "10th" in the preceding paragraph and this paragraph shall be deemed to be replaced, solely in respect of that exchange, with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires to, and including, the last Trading Day of such Observation Period.

In the event that the Guarantor or one of its Subsidiaries is obligated to subscribe for or purchase Ordinary Shares pursuant to any such tender offer or exchange offer, but the Guarantor or such Subsidiary is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any such purchases, or all of such purchases are rescinded, then the Exchange Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Exchange Rate that would then be in effect if such tender offer or exchange offer had not been made or had been made only in respect of the purchases that have been effected. For the avoidance of doubt, the terms "tender offer" and "exchange offer" mean a "tender offer" as such term is used under the Exchange Act.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this **‎**Section 14.04 or any other provision of this Indenture or the Notes, if an Exchange Rate adjustment becomes effective on any Ex-Dividend Date and a Holder that has exchanged its Notes on or after such Ex-Dividend Date and on or prior to the related Record Date would be treated as the record holder of Ordinary Shares as of the related Exchange Date as described under **‎**Section 14.02(i) based on an adjusted Exchange Rate for such Ex-Dividend Date, then, notwithstanding the Exchange Rate adjustment provisions in this **‎**Section 14.04, the Exchange Rate adjustment relating to such Ex-Dividend Date shall not be made for such exchanging Holder. Instead, such Holder shall be treated as if such Holder were the record owner of the Ordinary Shares on an unadjusted basis and participate in the related dividend, distribution or other event giving rise to such adjustment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) All calculations and other determinations under this **‎**Article 14 shall be made by the Company and all adjustments to the Exchange Rate shall be made to the nearest one-ten thousandth (1/10,000th) of an Ordinary Share. In no event will the Exchange Rate be adjusted such that the Exchange Price shall be less than the par value per Ordinary Share. Notwithstanding anything in this **‎**Article 14 to the contrary, the Company shall not be required to adjust the Exchange Rate unless the adjustment would result in a change of at least 1.0% to the Exchange Rate; *provided*, *however*, the Company shall carry forward, and take into account in any future adjustment, any adjustments that are less than 1.0% of the Exchange Rate and make such carried forward adjustments, regardless of whether the aggregate adjustment is less than 1.0%, (i) on the Event Effective Date of any Make-Whole Fundamental Change or the effective date of any Fundamental Change, (ii) on each VWAP Trading Day of any applicable Observation Period related to any exchange of Notes, (iii) on the date of a Notice of Tax Redemption and (iv) on the date of a Notice of Optional Redemption.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) In addition to those adjustments required by clauses **‎**(a), **‎**(b), **‎**(c), **‎**(d) and **‎**(e) of this **‎**Section 14.04, and to the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to the applicable rules of the New York Stock Exchange, the Company from time to time may increase the Exchange Rate by any amount for a period of at least 20 Business Days if the Guarantor's Board of Directors determines that such increase would be in the Company's and/or the Guarantor's best interest. In addition, to the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to the applicable rules of the New York Stock Exchange, the Company may also (but is not required to) increase the Exchange Rate to avoid or diminish any income tax to holders of Ordinary Shares or rights subscribe for or to purchase Ordinary Shares in connection with a dividend or distribution of shares (or rights to acquire shares) or similar event. Whenever the Exchange Rate is increased pursuant to either of the preceding two sentences, the Company shall send to the Holder of each Note at its last address appearing on the Note Register a notice of the increase at least 15 days prior to the date the increased Exchange Rate takes effect, and such notice shall state the increased Exchange Rate and the period during which it will be in effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Except as stated herein, the Company shall not adjust the Exchange Rate for the issuance of Ordinary Shares or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for Ordinary Shares or the right to subscribe for or purchase Ordinary Shares or such convertible or exchangeable securities. For example, the Exchange Rate shall not be adjusted:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. upon the issuance of Ordinary Shares pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on the Guarantor's securities and the investment of additional optional amounts in Ordinary Shares under any plan;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;C. upon the issuance of any Ordinary Shares pursuant to any option, warrant, right or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security not described in clause B. of this subsection and outstanding as of the date the Notes were first issued;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;D. for ordinary course of business share repurchases that are not tender offers referred to in ‎Section 14.04(e), including structured or derivative transactions or pursuant to a share repurchase program approved by the Guarantor's Board of Directors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;E. solely for a change in the par value of an Ordinary Share; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;F. for accrued and unpaid interest, if any.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) [Reserved]

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) Whenever the Exchange Rate is adjusted as herein provided, the Company shall promptly file with the Trustee (and the Exchange Agent if not the Trustee) an Officer's Certificate setting forth the Exchange Rate after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment. Unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received such Officer's Certificate, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any adjustment of the Exchange Rate and may assume without inquiry that the last Exchange Rate of which it has knowledge is still in effect. Promptly after delivery of such certificate, the Company shall prepare a notice of such adjustment of the Exchange Rate setting forth the adjusted Exchange Rate and the date on which each adjustment becomes effective and shall send such notice of such adjustment of the Exchange Rate to each Holder at its last address appearing on the Note Register of this Indenture. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of any such adjustment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) [Reserved]

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) For purposes of this **‎**Section 14.04, the number of Ordinary Shares at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Guarantor, so long as the Guarantor does not pay any dividend or make any distribution on Ordinary Shares held in the treasury of the Guarantor, but shall include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of Ordinary Shares.

Section 14.05. *Adjustments of Prices.* Whenever any provision of this Indenture requires the Company to calculate the Last Reported Sale Prices, the Daily VWAPs, the Daily Exchange Values or the Daily Settlement Amounts over a span of multiple days (including, without limitation, an Observation Period and the period for determining the Stock Price for purposes of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, a Notice of Tax Redemption or a Notice of Optional Redemption), the Guarantor's Board of Directors shall make appropriate adjustments, in good faith, to each to account for any adjustment to the Exchange Rate that becomes effective, or any event requiring an adjustment to the Exchange Rate where the Ex-Dividend Date, Effective Date or Expiration Date of the event occurs at any time during the period when the Last Reported Sale Prices, the Daily VWAPs, the Daily Exchange Values or the Daily Settlement Amounts are to be calculated.

Section 14.06. *Shares To Be Fully Reserved.* The Company shall procure that the Guarantor shall have reserved and provide, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued shares, the maximum number of Ordinary Shares exchangeable from time to time in respect of the Notes (including the maximum number of Additional Shares that could be included in the Exchange Rate for an exchange in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, a Notice of Tax Redemption or a Notice of Optional Redemption).

Section 14.07. *Effect of Recapitalizations, Reclassifications and Changes of the Ordinary Shares.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) In the case of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. any recapitalization, reclassification or change of the Ordinary Shares (other than a change to par value, or from par value to no par value, or changes resulting from a subdivision or combination);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. any consolidation, merger, amalgamation or other combination involving the Guarantor; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;C. any sale, lease or other transfer or disposition to a third party of all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Guarantor and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;D. any statutory share exchange,

in each case, as a result of which the Ordinary Shares would be converted into, or exchanged for stock, other securities, other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) (any such event, a "**Specified Corporate Event**" and any such stock, shares, other securities, other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof), "**Reference Property**" and the amount of Reference Property that a holder of one Ordinary Share immediately prior to such Specified Corporate Event would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Specified Corporate Event, a "**Unit of Reference Property**"), then the Company will, or will cause the Guarantor, or the successor or purchasing person, as the case may be, to, execute with the Trustee, without the consent of the Holders, a supplemental indenture providing that, at and after the effective time of the Specified Corporate Event, the right to exchange each $1,000 principal amount of Notes for Ordinary Shares will be changed into a right to exchange such principal amount of Notes for the kind and amount of Reference Property that a holder of a number of Ordinary Shares equal to the Exchange Rate immediately prior to such Specified Corporate Event would have been entitled to receive upon such Specified Corporate Event; *provided*, *however*, that at and after the effective time of the Specified Corporate Event (A) the amount otherwise payable in cash upon exchange of Notes in accordance with Section 14.02 shall continue to be payable in cash; (B) the Company shall continue to have the right to elect the form of consideration to be paid or delivered, as the case may be, in respect of the portion, if any, of the Company's Exchange Obligation in excess of the aggregate principal amount of Notes being exchanged in accordance with Section 14.02; (C) the number of Ordinary Shares, if any, otherwise deliverable upon exchange of the Notes in accordance with Section 14.02 shall instead be deliverable in the Units of Reference Property that a holder of that number of Ordinary Shares would have received in such Specified Corporate Event; and (D) the Daily VWAP shall be calculated based on the value of a Unit of Reference Property; *provided, however*, that if the holders of Ordinary Shares receive only cash in such Specified Corporate Event, then for all exchanges that occur after the effective date of such Specified Corporate Event (i) the consideration due upon exchange of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes shall be solely cash in an amount equal to the Exchange Rate in effect on the Exchange Date (as may be increased by any Additional Shares pursuant to ‎Section 14.03), *multiplied by* the price paid per Ordinary Share in such Specified Corporate Event, and (ii) the Company shall satisfy the Exchange Obligation by paying such cash to the exchanging Holder on the third Business Day immediately following the Exchange Date.

If the Specified Corporate Event causes the Ordinary Shares to be converted into, or exchanged for, the right to receive more than a single type of consideration (determined based in part upon any form of shareholder election), then the Reference Property into which the Notes shall be exchangeable shall be deemed to be the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration actually received by the holders of the Ordinary Shares. The Company shall notify Holders, the Trustee and the Exchange Agent (if other than the Trustee) in writing of the weighted average as soon as practicable after such determination.

Such supplemental indenture described in the second immediately preceding paragraph shall provide for anti-dilution and other adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as is possible to the adjustments provided for in this ‎Article 14. If the Reference Property in respect of any Specified Corporate Event includes shares of stock, other securities or other property or assets (other than cash) (including any combination thereof) of an entity other than the Guarantor or the successor or purchasing person, as the case may be, in such Specified Corporate Event, then such other entity, if it is party to such Specified Corporate Event, shall also execute such supplemental indenture, and such supplemental indenture shall contain such additional provisions to protect the interests of the Holders, including the right of Holders to require the Company to repurchase their Notes upon a Fundamental Change in accordance with ‎Article 15, as the Board of Directors of the Guarantor shall reasonably consider necessary by reason of the foregoing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In the event the Company shall execute a supplemental indenture pursuant to **‎**Section 14.07(a), the Company shall promptly file with the Trustee an Officer's Certificate briefly stating the reasons therefor, the kind or amount of cash, securities or other assets (including any combination thereof) that will comprise the Reference Property after any such Specified Corporate Event, any adjustment to be made with respect thereto and that all conditions precedent have been complied with, and shall promptly send notice thereof to all Holders. The Company shall cause notice of the execution of such supplemental indenture to be sent to each Holder, at its address appearing on the Note Register provided for in this Indenture, within 20 days after execution thereof. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of such supplemental indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If the Notes become exchangeable for Reference Property, the Company shall (i) notify the Trustee in writing and issue a press release containing the relevant information of disclose the relevant information in a current report on a Form 8-K, and (ii) post such information on the Guarantor's website.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Company and the Guarantor shall not become a party to any Specified Corporate Event unless its terms are consistent with this **‎**Section 14.07.

Section 14.08. *Certain Covenants.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Company covenants that all Ordinary Shares delivered upon exchange of the Notes shall be duly authorized, fully paid and non-assessable and free from all preemptive or similar rights of any security holder of the Guarantor and, except for any transfer taxes payable by the Company, the Guarantor or a Holder, as the case may be, pursuant to Sections 14.02(d) and 14.02(e), free from all taxes, liens, charges and adverse claims as the result of any action by the Company or the Guarantor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) [Reserved]

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Company covenants that if any Ordinary Shares to be provided for the purpose of exchange of the Notes hereunder require registration with or approval of any governmental authority under any federal or state law before such shares may be validly issued upon exchange, the Company shall, to the extent then permitted by the rules and interpretations of the Commission, secure such registration or approval, as the case may be.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Company further covenants that if at any time the Ordinary Shares shall be listed on any national securities exchange or automated quotation system, the Company shall, or shall cause the Guarantor to, list and keep listed, so long as the Ordinary Shares shall be so listed on such exchange or automated quotation system, any Ordinary Shares issuable upon exchange of the Notes.

Section 14.09. *Responsibility of Trustee.* The Trustee and any other Exchange Agent shall not at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holder to determine the Exchange Rate (or any adjustment thereto) or whether any facts exist that may require any adjustment (including any increase) of the Exchange Rate, or with respect to the nature or extent or calculation of any such adjustment when made, or with respect to the method employed, or herein or in any supplemental indenture provided to be employed, in making the same. The Trustee and any other Exchange Agent shall not be accountable with respect to the validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any Ordinary Shares, or of any securities, property or cash that may at any time be issued or delivered upon the exchange of any Note; and the Trustee and any other Exchange Agent make no representations with respect thereto. Neither the Trustee nor any Exchange Agent shall be responsible for any failure of the Company to issue, transfer or deliver any Ordinary Shares or stock certificates or other securities or property or cash upon the surrender of any Note for the purpose of exchange or to comply with any of the duties, responsibilities or covenants of the Company contained in this Article. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither the Trustee nor any Exchange Agent shall be under any responsibility to determine the correctness of any provisions contained in any supplemental indenture entered into pursuant to **‎**Section 14.07 relating either to the kind or amount of shares of stock or securities or property (including cash) receivable by Holders upon the exchange of their Notes after any event referred to in such **‎**Section 14.07 or to any adjustment to be made with respect thereto, but, subject to the provisions of **‎**Section 7.01, may accept (without any independent investigation) as conclusive evidence of the correctness of any such provisions, and shall be protected in conclusively relying upon, the Officer's Certificate (which the Company shall be obligated to furnish to the Trustee prior to the execution of any such supplemental indenture) with respect thereto. Neither the Trustee nor the Exchange Agent shall be responsible for determining whether any event contemplated by Section 14.01(b) has occurred that makes the Notes eligible for exchange or no longer eligible therefor until the Company has delivered to the Trustee and the Exchange Agent the notices referred to in Section 14.01(b) with respect to the commencement or termination of such exchange rights, on which notices the Trustee and the Exchange Agent may conclusively rely, and the Company agrees to deliver such notices to the Trustee and the Exchange Agent immediately after the occurrence of any such event or at such other times as shall be provided for in Section 14.01(b). The parties hereto agree that all notices to the Trustee or the Exchange Agent under this **‎**Article 14 shall be in writing.

Section 14.10. *[Reserved]*.

Section 14.11. *Shareholder Rights Plans.* If the Guarantor has a shareholder's rights agreement or rights plan in effect upon exchange of the Notes, Holders that exchange their Notes shall receive, in addition to any Ordinary Shares received in connection with such exchange, the appropriate number of rights under such rights agreement or rights plan, if any, and any certificate representing the Ordinary Shares issued upon such exchange shall bear such legends, if any, in each case as may be provided by the terms of any such rights agreement or rights plan, as the same may be amended from time to time. However, if prior to any exchange, the rights have separated from the Ordinary Shares in accordance with the provisions of the applicable shareholder's rights agreement or rights plan (a "**Separation Event**"), the Exchange Rate shall be adjusted at the time of separation as if the Guarantor distributed to all or substantially all holders of the Ordinary Shares, Distributed Property pursuant to **‎**Section 14.04(c), subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights.

The Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice in respect of any Notes to be repurchased shall state:

The Paying Agent shall promptly notify the Company of the receipt by it of any Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice or written notice of withdrawal thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I. the procedures that Holders must follow to require the Company to repurchase their Notes; and

Such notice shall be delivered to the Trustee, to the Paying Agent (if other than the Trustee) and to each Holder at its address shown in the Note Register (and to the beneficial owner as required by applicable law) or, in the case of Global Notes, in accordance with the Applicable Procedures.

No failure of the Company and/or the Guarantor to give the foregoing notices and no defect therein shall limit the Holders' repurchase rights or affect the validity of the proceedings for the repurchase of the Notes pursuant to this ‎Section 15.02.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Notes may be repurchased by the Company on any date at the option of the Holders in connection with a Fundamental Change if the principal amount of the Notes has been accelerated, and such acceleration has not been rescinded, on or prior to such date (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a Default by the Company in the payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price with respect to such Notes).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. pursuant to clause (2) of the definition thereof, if (i) such Fundamental Change results in the Notes becoming exchangeable (pursuant to the provisions described in ‎Section 14.07) into an amount of cash per Note that is greater than (x) the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price (assuming such price includes the maximum amount of accrued interest that would be payable based on the latest possible Fundamental Change Repurchase Date), plus (y) to the extent that the 35<sup>th</sup> Trading Day immediately following the effective date of such Fundamental Change is after a Regular Record Date and on or prior to the Business Day immediately following the corresponding Interest Payment Date, the full amount of interest payable per Note on such interest payment date, and (ii) the Company provides written notice of the effective date of any such transaction as promptly as practicable following the date the Company publicly announces such transaction or prior to such effective date if practicable to do so using commercially reasonable efforts. The requirements set forth in parts (i) and (ii) of this clause B., the "**Adequate Cash Exchange Provisions**."

Additionally, as set forth in ‎Section 14.03, the Company may not be required to repurchase, or to make an offer to repurchase, the Notes upon a Fundamental Change or increase the Exchange Rate of the Notes in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, in certain circumstances involving a significant change in the composition of the Guarantor's Board of Directors, unless such change is in connection with a Fundamental Change or a Make-Whole Fundamental Change.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) the principal amount, if any, of such Notes that remains subject to the original Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice, which portion must be in an Authorized Denomination;

*provided*, *however*, that if the Notes are Global Notes, the withdrawal notice must comply with the Applicable Procedures.

Section 15.04. *Deposit of Fundamental Change Repurchase Price.* (a) The Company shall deposit with the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company, or if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, set aside, segregate and hold in trust as provided in **‎**Section 4.04) on or prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date an amount of money sufficient to repurchase all of the Notes to be repurchased at the appropriate Fundamental Change Repurchase Price. Subject to receipt of funds by the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company), payment for Notes surrendered for repurchase (and not validly withdrawn prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date) will be made on the later of (i) the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date with respect to such Note (*provided* that the Holder has satisfied the conditions in **‎**Section 15.02) and (ii) the time of book-entry transfer or the delivery of such Note to the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company) by the Holder thereof in the manner required by **‎**Section 15.02, by mailing checks for the amount payable to the Holders of such Notes entitled thereto as they shall appear in the Note Register; *provided*, *however*, that payments to the Depositary shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the Depositary or its nominee. The Trustee shall, promptly after such payment and upon written demand by the Company, return to the Company any funds in excess of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If by 10:00 a.m. New York City time, on the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company) holds money sufficient to make payment on all the Notes or portions thereof that are to be repurchased on such Fundamental Change Repurchase Date or any applicable extension thereof, then, with respect to Notes that have been properly surrendered for repurchase and not validly withdrawn:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. such Notes shall cease to be outstanding and interest shall cease to accrue on such Notes on the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date or any applicable extension thereof (whether or not book-entry transfer of the Notes has been made or the Notes have been delivered to the Trustee or Paying Agent); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. all other rights of the Holders of such Notes will terminate on the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date (other than (x) the right to receive the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price and (y) if the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date falls after a Regular Record Date but on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, the right of the Holder on such Regular Record Date to receive the accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Upon surrender of a Note that is to be repurchased in part pursuant to **‎**Section 15.02, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder a new Note in an Authorized Denomination equal in principal amount to the portion of the Note surrendered that is not to be repurchased, without payment of any service charge.

Section 15.05. *Covenant to Comply with Applicable Laws Upon Repurchase of Notes*. In connection with any repurchase offer, the Company and the Guarantor will, if required:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) comply with the provisions of Rule 13e-4, Rule 14e-1 and any other tender offer rules under the Exchange Act that may then be applicable; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) file a Schedule TO or any other required schedule under the Exchange Act;

in each case, so as to permit the rights and obligations under this ‎Article 15 to be exercised in the time and in the manner specified in this ‎Article 15, subject to extension if required to comply with law. To the extent that any securities laws and regulations conflict with the provisions of this Indenture with respect to the repurchase of Notes, the Company is required to comply with such securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to be in breach of this Indenture as a result thereof.

Article 16

Redemption

Section 16.01. *Tax Redemption; Optional Redemption*. The Notes shall not be redeemable by the Company, except as described in this **‎**Article 16, and no sinking fund is provided for the Notes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) On or prior to the Maturity Date, the Notes may be redeemed, in whole but not in part (a "**Tax Redemption**"), at the Company's discretion at the Tax Redemption Price, if (w) on the next date on which any amount would be payable in respect of the Notes or Guarantee, the Company or any Guarantor is or would be required to pay Additional Amounts (but, in the case of the Guarantor, only if the payment giving rise to such requirement cannot be made by the Company without the obligation to pay Additional Amounts), (x) the Company or the Guarantor cannot avoid any such payment obligation by taking reasonable measures available (including, for the avoidance of doubt, appointment of a new Paying Agent but excluding the reincorporation or reorganization of the Company or the Guarantor), and (y) the requirement arises as a result of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. any change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of the relevant Tax Jurisdiction which change or amendment is announced and becomes effective after the date of the Offering Memorandum (or if the applicable Tax Jurisdiction became a Tax Jurisdiction on a date after the date of the Offering Memorandum, after such later date); or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. any change in, or amendment to, the official application, administration or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings (including by virtue of a holding, judgment or order by a court of competent jurisdiction or a change in published practice), which change or amendment is announced and becomes effective after the date of the Offering Memorandum (or if the applicable Tax Jurisdiction became a Tax Jurisdiction on a date after the date of the Offering Memorandum, after such later date) (each of the foregoing clauses (a) and (b), a "**Change in Tax Law**").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) On or after September 20, 2028, the Company may redeem (an "**Optional Redemption**") for cash all or part of the Notes subject to the Partial Redemption Limitation, at its option, at the Optional Redemption Price if the Last Reported Sale Price of Ordinary Shares has been at least 130% of the Exchange Price then in effect for at least 20 Trading Days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive Trading Day period (including the last Trading Day of such period) ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides a Notice of Optional Redemption in accordance with Section 16.02(b). If the Company elects to redeem fewer than all of the outstanding Notes, at least $150,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes must be outstanding and not subject to Optional Redemption as of the relevant Optional Redemption Date (such requirement, the "**Partial Redemption Limitation**"). If the Company redeems fewer than all of the outstanding Notes pursuant to an Optional Redemption, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be redeemed (in principal amounts of $1,000 or multiples thereof) by lot, on a *pro rata* basis or by another method the Trustee considers to be fair and appropriate. If any Note selected for such partial redemption is submitted for exchange in part after such selection, the portion of the Note submitted for exchange shall be deemed (so far as may be possible) to be the portion selected for Optional Redemption, subject, in the case of Notes represented by a Global Note, to the Applicable Procedures. In the event of any Optional Redemption in part, the Company shall not be required to register the transfer of or exchange any Note so selected for Optional Redemption, in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.

Section 16.02. *Notice of Tax Redemption; Notice of Optional Redemption*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. In the event that the Company exercises its Tax Redemption right pursuant to ‎Section 16.01, it shall fix a date for redemption (the "**Tax Redemption Date**") and it or, at its written request received by the Trustee not less than five Business Days prior to the date on which notice is sent to the Holders (or such shorter period of time as may be acceptable to the Trustee), the Trustee, in the name of and at the expense of the Company, shall deliver or cause to be delivered a notice (which notice shall be irrevocable) of such Tax Redemption (a "**Notice of Tax Redemption**") not less than 50 nor more than 60 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the Tax Redemption Date to each Holder of Notes so to be redeemed at its last address as the same appears on the Note Register; *provided, however*, that if the Company shall give a Notice of Tax Redemption, it shall also give a written notice of the Tax Redemption Date to the Trustee and the Paying Agent. The Tax Redemption Date must be a Business Day; *provided*, *however*, that the Company may not specify a Tax Redemption Date that falls on or after the Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date.

The Company shall not give any such notice of Tax Redemption earlier than 60 calendar days prior to the earliest date on which the Company or the Guarantor would be obligated to make such payment of Additional Amounts if a payment in respect of the Notes or the Guarantee were then due and at the time such notice is given, the obligation to pay Additional Amounts must remain in effect. Simultaneously with providing a Notice of a Tax Redemption, the Company will (i) issue a press release containing the relevant information or disclose the relevant information in a current report on Form 8-K and (ii) post such information on the Guarantor's public website. Prior to the mailing, publication or, where relevant, delivery of any Notice of Tax Redemption of the Notes pursuant to the foregoing, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an opinion of independent tax counsel of recognized standing qualified under the laws of the relevant Tax Jurisdiction (which counsel shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee) to the effect that there has been a Change in Tax Law which would entitle the Company to redeem the Notes hereunder. In addition, before the Company delivers a Notice of Tax Redemption, it shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer's Certificate to the effect that it cannot avoid its obligation to pay Additional Amounts by the Company or the Guarantor taking reasonable measures available to the Company or the Guarantor. The Trustee shall accept and shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such Officer's Certificate and Opinion of Counsel as sufficient evidence of the existence and satisfaction of the conditions as described above, in which event it will be conclusive and binding on all of the Holders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In the case of any Optional Redemption pursuant to **‎**Section 16.01(b), the Company shall fix a date for redemption (the "**Optional Redemption Date**") and it or, at its written request received by the Trustee not less than five Business Days prior to the date on which notice is sent to the Holders, the Trustee, in the name of and at the expense of the Company, shall deliver or cause to be delivered a notice (which notice shall be irrevocable) of such Optional Redemption (a "**Notice of Optional Redemption**") not less than 50 nor more than 60 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the Optional Redemption Date to each Holder of Notes so to be redeemed at its last address as the same appears on the Note Register; *provided, however*, that if the Company shall give a Notice of Optional Redemption, it shall also give a written notice of the Optional Redemption Date to the Trustee and the Paying Agent. The Optional Redemption Date must be a Business Day; *provided, however*, that the Company may not specify an Optional Redemption Date that falls on or after March 15, 2030.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Each Notice of Tax Redemption and Notice of Optional Redemption shall specify:A. the Tax Redemption Date or the Optional Redemption Date, as applicable;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. the Tax Redemption Price or the Optional Redemption Price, as applicable;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;C. the place or places where such Notes are to be surrendered for payment of the Tax Redemption Price or the Optional Redemption Price, as applicable;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;D. that on the Tax Redemption Date, the Tax Redemption Price, or on the Optional Redemption Date, the Optional Redemption Price, as applicable, will become due and payable upon each Note to be redeemed, and that the interest thereon, if any, shall cease to accrue on and after the Tax Redemption Date or the Optional Redemption Date, as applicable;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;E. that Holders may surrender their Notes called for Tax Redemption or Optional Redemption for exchange at any time from the date of the Notice of Tax Redemption or the Notice of Optional Redemption, as applicable, to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Tax Redemption Date or the Optional Redemption Date, as applicable, or if the Company fails to pay the Tax Redemption Price or Optional Redemption Price, such later date on which the Company pays or duly provides for the Tax Redemption Price or the Optional Redemption Price, as applicable;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;F. the procedures an exchanging Holder must follow to exchange its Notes called for Tax Redemption or Optional Redemption, as applicable;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;G. in respect of a Notice of Tax Redemption, that Holders have the right to elect not to have their Notes redeemed by delivering to the Trustee written notice to that effect not later than the 10th calendar day prior to the Tax Redemption Date;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;H. in respect of a Notice of Tax Redemption, that Holders who wish to elect not to have their Notes redeemed must satisfy the requirements set forth herein and in this Indenture;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I. in respect of a Notice of Tax Redemption, that, on and after the Tax Redemption Date, Holders who elect not to have their Notes redeemed will not receive any Additional Amounts on any payments with respect to such Notes (whether upon exchange, prepayment, maturity or otherwise, and whether in cash, Ordinary Shares or otherwise), and all subsequent payments with respect to the Notes will be subject to the deduction or withholding of such applicable Tax Jurisdiction taxes required by law to be deducted or withheld;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;J. the Exchange Rate and, if applicable, the number of Ordinary Shares added to the Exchange Rate in accordance with Section 14.03;

On presentation and surrender of the Notes at the place or places stated in the Notice of Tax Redemption or the Notice of Optional Redemption, the Notes shall be paid and redeemed by the Company at the applicable Tax Redemption Price or Optional Redemption Price, as applicable.

Section 16.04. *Holders' Right to Avoid Tax Redemption.* Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this **‎**Article 16, if the Company has given a Notice of Tax Redemption as described in **‎**Section 16.02(a), each Holder of Notes shall have the right to elect that all or a part of such Holder's Notes will not be subject to the Tax Redemption.

The obligation to pay Additional Amounts to any electing Holder for payments made in periods prior to the Tax Redemption Date shall remain subject to the exceptions set forth under Section 4.10. Holders must exercise their option to elect to avoid a Tax Redemption by written notice (a "**No Tax Redemption Notice**") to the Trustee no later than the 10th calendar day prior to the Tax Redemption Date; *provided* that a Holder that complies with the requirements for exchange of its Notes as described in **‎**Article 14 before the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Tax Redemption Date (or, if the Company fails to pay the Tax Redemption Price, such later date on which the Company pays or duly provides for the Tax Redemption Price) shall be deemed to have validly delivered a No Tax Redemption Notice.

Section 16.05. *Restrictions on Tax Redemption and Optional Redemption.* The Company may not redeem any Notes pursuant to either Tax Redemption or Optional Redemption on any date if the principal amount of the Notes has been accelerated in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, and such acceleration has not been rescinded, on or prior to the Tax Redemption Date or the Optional Redemption Date, as applicable (or, if the Company fails to pay the Tax Redemption Price or the Optional Redemption Price, as applicable, such later date on which the Company pays the Tax Redemption Price or the Optional Redemption Price) (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a Default by the Company in the payment of the Tax Redemption Price or the Optional Redemption Price, as applicable, with respect to such Notes).

Section 16.06. *Mutatis Mutandis.* In respect of a Tax Redemption, the above provisions will apply, *mutatis mutandis,* to any successor of the Company (or the Guarantor) with respect to a Change in Tax Law occurring after the time such Person becomes successor to the Company (or the Guarantor).

certifies that this is one of the Notes described<br> in the within-named Indenture.

By:   <br> Authorized Signatory

Exhibit A-5

[FORM OF REVERSE OF NOTE]

NCL CORPORATION LTD.<br> 0.750% Exchangeable Senior Note due 2030

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Company, designated as its 0.750% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2030 (the "**Notes**"), initially limited to the aggregate principal amount of $1,407,000,000, all issued under and pursuant to an Indenture dated as of September 11, 2025 (the "**Indenture**"), among the Company, the Guarantors and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee (the "**Trustee**"), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Exchange Agent, the Company and the Holders of the Notes. Additional Notes may be issued in an unlimited aggregate principal amount, subject to certain conditions specified in the Indenture. The Notes represent the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes from time to time endorsed hereon and the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented hereby may from time to time be increased or reduced to reflect repurchases, cancellations, exchanges for cash or (as the case may be) a combination of cash and Ordinary Shares, transfers or exchanges permitted by the Indenture.

In case an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal of, and interest on, all Notes may be declared, by either the Trustee or Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, and upon said declaration shall become, due and payable, in the manner, with the effect and subject to the conditions and certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture. In the case certain Events of Default relating to a bankruptcy (or similar proceeding) with respect to the Guarantor or the Company shall have occurred, the principal of, and interest on, all Notes shall automatically become immediately due and payable, as set forth in the Indenture.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, the Company will make all payments and deliveries in respect of the Tax Redemption Price on a Tax Redemption Date, the Optional Redemption Price on an Optional Redemption Date and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price on the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date and the principal amount on the Maturity Date, as the case may be, to the Holder who surrenders a Note to a Paying Agent to collect such payments in respect of the Note. The Company will pay cash amounts in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. Upon exchange of any Note, the Company shall, at its election, pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash or a combination of cash and Ordinary Shares.

The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Company, the Guarantor and the Trustee in certain circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of the Notes, and in certain other circumstances, with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding, evidenced as in the Indenture provided, to execute supplemental indentures modifying the terms of the Indenture and the Notes as described therein. It is also provided in the Indenture that, subject to certain exceptions, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any past Default or Event of Default under the Indenture and its consequences.

Exhibit A-6

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal (including the Tax Redemption Price, the Optional Redemption Price and Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of or the consideration due upon exchange for, as the case may be, and accrued and unpaid interest on this Note at the place, at the respective times, at the rate and in the lawful money herein prescribed.

The Notes are issuable in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $1,000 principal amount and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. At the office or agency of the Company referred to on the face hereof, and in the manner and subject to the limitations provided in the Indenture, Notes may be exchanged for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of other authorized denominations, without payment of any service charge but, if required by the Company or Trustee, with payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer or similar tax that may be imposed in connection therewith as a result of the name of the Holder of the new Notes issued upon such exchange of Notes being different from the name of the Holder of the old Notes surrendered for such exchange.

The Notes are not subject to redemption through the operation of any sinking fund. Under certain circumstances specified in the Indenture, the Notes will be subject to redemption by the Company at the Tax Redemption Price or the Optional Redemption Price, as the case may be.

Upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Change, the Holder has the right, at such Holder's option, to require the Company to repurchase for cash all of such Holder's Notes or any portion thereof (in principal amounts of $1,000 or integral multiples thereof) on the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date at a price equal to the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price.

Subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder hereof has the right, at its option, during certain periods and upon the occurrence of certain conditions specified in the Indenture prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, to exchange any Notes or portion thereof that is $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, into cash or a combination of cash and Ordinary Shares, as applicable, at the Exchange Rate specified in the Indenture, as adjusted from time to time as provided in the Indenture.

Terms used in this Note and defined in the Indenture are used herein as therein defined.

**NCL Corporation Ltd. Announces Upsizing and Pricing of $1,300.0 Million of Exchangeable Notes**

MIAMI, September 9, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NCL Corporation Ltd. ("NCLC"), a subsidiary of Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd. (NYSE: NCLH) ("NCLH"), announced today that it has priced $1,300.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 0.750% exchangeable senior notes due 2030 (the "Exchangeable Notes"), which were offered in a private offering (the "Exchangeable Notes Offering") that is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The aggregate principal amount of Exchangeable Notes to be issued was increased to $1,300.0 million from the previously announced $1,200.0 million.

NCLC has granted the initial purchasers of the Exchangeable Notes an option to purchase, during a 13-day period beginning on, and including, the first day on which the Exchangeable Notes are issued, up to an additional $107.0 million aggregate principal amount of Exchangeable Notes. The Exchangeable Notes Offering is expected to close on September 11, 2025, subject to customary closing conditions.

The Exchangeable Notes will be general senior unsecured obligations of NCLC and guaranteed by NCLH on a senior unsecured basis. Holders may exchange all or a portion of the Exchangeable Notes at the holder's option (i) at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding March 15, 2030, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions and during certain periods, and (ii) on or after March 15, 2030 until the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the maturity date of the Exchangeable Notes, regardless of whether such conditions have been met. Upon exchange of the Exchangeable Notes, NCLC will satisfy its exchange obligation by paying cash up to the aggregate principal amount of the Exchangeable Notes to be exchanged and paying or delivering, as the case may be, cash, ordinary shares of NCLH ("ordinary shares") or a combination of cash and ordinary shares, at NCLC's election, in respect of the remainder, if any, of NCLC's exchange obligation in excess of the aggregate principal amount of the Exchangeable Notes to be exchanged. The initial exchange rate per $1,000 principal amount of Exchangeable Notes is 29.1189 ordinary shares, which is equivalent to an initial exchange price of approximately $34.34 per ordinary share, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. The initial exchange price represents a premium of approximately 40.0% above the offering price in NCLH's separately-announced registered direct offering of its ordinary shares (the "Equity Offering").

NCLC intends to use the net proceeds from the Exchangeable Notes Offering, together with the net proceeds of the Equity Offering, to repurchase (the "Repurchases" and, together with the Exchangeable Notes Offering and the Equity Offering, the "Transactions") (through its agent) approximately $958.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 1.125% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2027 (the "1.125% 2027 Exchangeable Notes") for approximately $1,009.5 million and approximately $449.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 2.50% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2027 (the "2.50% 2027 Exchangeable Notes") for approximately $480.5 million, *plus*, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the repurchase date. The Repurchases are conditioned upon the consummation of the Exchangeable Notes Offering and the consummation of the Equity Offering, and the consummation of the Exchangeable Notes Offering and the Equity Offering are conditioned upon the consummation of the Repurchases.

Following the Repurchases, approximately $192.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 1.125% 2027 Exchangeable Notes and approximately $24.2 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2.50% 2027 Exchangeable Notes will remain outstanding. The Transactions will be essentially neutral to NCLH's leverage and, as of closing of the Transactions, are expected to reduce NCLH's shares outstanding on a fully diluted basis by approximately 38.1 million shares.

The Exchangeable Notes are being offered only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act. The Exchangeable Notes, the guarantee of NCLH and the ordinary shares issuable upon exchange of the Exchangeable Notes, if any, will not be registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any state and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state laws.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any security and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. This press release also shall not constitute an offer to purchase or a solicitation of an offer to sell the 1.125% 2027 Exchangeable Notes or the 2.50% 2027 Exchangeable Notes.

Many, but not all, of these statements can be found by looking for words like "expect," "anticipate," "goal," "project," "plan," "believe," "seek," "will," "may," "forecast," "estimate," "intend," "future" and similar words. Forward-looking statements do not guarantee future performance and may involve risks, uncertainties and other factors which could cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from the future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied in those forward-looking statements. For a discussion of these risks, uncertainties and other factors, please refer to the factors set forth under the sections entitled "Risk Factors" and "Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements" in our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These factors are not exhaustive and new risks emerge from time to time. There may be additional risks that we consider immaterial or which are unknown. Such forward-looking statements are based on our current beliefs, assumptions, expectations, estimates and projections regarding our present and future business strategies and the environment in which we expect to operate in the future. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date made. We expressly disclaim any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statement to reflect any change in our expectations with regard thereto or any change of events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement was based, except as required by law.
