 ARTICLE 3

 THE WARRANTS 

Section 3.01. Form And Dating; Legends. (a) The Warrants will be substantially in the form attached as Exhibit A. The terms
and provisions contained in the form of the Warrants annexed as Exhibit A constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of the Warrant Agreement. The Warrants may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, rules of or agreements
with national securities exchanges to which the Company is subject, or usage. Each Warrant will be dated the date of its countersignature. 

(b) (i) Each Global Warrant will bear the DTC Legend. 

(ii) Each Warrant issued prior to the Separation Date will bear the Unit Legend. 

Section 3.02. Execution and Countersignature. (a) An Officer shall execute the Warrants for the Company by facsimile or
manual signature in the name and on behalf of the Company. If an Officer whose signature is on a Warrant no longer holds that office at the time the Warrant is countersigned, the Warrant will still be valid. 

  
 4 

 (b) A Warrant will not be valid until the Warrant Agent manually countersigns the
Warrant, with the signature conclusive evidence that the Warrant has been countersigned under this Agreement. At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company may deliver Warrants executed by the
Company to the Warrant Agent for countersignature. The Warrant Agent will countersign and deliver a number of Warrants for original issue convertible into an aggregate number of Warrant Shares not to exceed the amount stated in the preamble hereto
(except as may be adjusted pursuant to Article 6 hereof) after receipt by the Warrant of an Officers’ Certificate specifying 

(i) the number of Warrants to be countersigned and the date on which the Warrants are to be countersigned, 

(ii) whether the Warrants are to be issued as one or more Global Warrant or Certificated Warrants, and 

(iii) other information the Company may determine to include or the Warrant Agent may reasonably request. 

Section 3.03. Warrant Registrar And Countersignature Agent. The Company may appoint one or more Registrars, and the Warrant Agent
may appoint a Countersignature Agent, in which case each reference in the Agreement to the Warrant Agent in respect of the obligations of the Warrant Agent to be performed by that Agent will be deemed to be references to the Agent. The Company may
act as Registrar. In each case the Company and the Warrant Agent will enter into an appropriate agreement with the Agent implementing the provisions of the Agreement relating to the obligations of the Warrant Agent to be performed by the Agent and
the related rights. The Company initially appoints the Warrant Agent as Registrar. 
 Section 3.04. Replacement Warrants. If a
mutilated Warrant is surrendered to the Warrant Agent or if a Holder claims that its Warrant has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Company will issue and the Warrant Agent will countersign a replacement Warrant. Every replacement Warrant
is an additional obligation of the Company and entitled to the benefits of the Warrant Agreement. If required by the Warrant Agent, an indemnity bond must be furnished that is sufficient in the judgment of both the Warrant Agent and the Company to
protect the Company and the Warrant Agent from any loss they may suffer if a Warrant is replaced. The Company may charge the Holder for the expenses of the Company and the Warrant Agent in replacing a Warrant. 

Section 3.05. Outstanding Warrants. (a) Warrants outstanding at any time are all Warrants that have been countersigned by the
Warrant Agent except for 
 (i) Warrants cancelled by the Warrant Agent or delivered to it for cancellation; 

(ii) Warrants exercised by the Holder thereof; and 

  
 5 

 (iii) any Warrant which has been replaced pursuant to Section 3.04 unless
and until the Warrant Agent and the Company receive proof satisfactory to them that the replaced Warrant is held by a bona fide purchaser. 

(b) A Warrant does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or one of its Affiliates holds the Warrant, provided
that in determining whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of the outstanding Warrants have given or taken any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action hereunder, Warrants owned by the
Company or any Affiliate of the Company will be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding (it being understood that in determining whether the Warrant Agent is protected in relying upon any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or other action, only Warrants which the Warrant Agent knows to be so owned will be so disregarded). Warrants so owned which have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as outstanding if the pledgee establishes to the
satisfaction of the Warrant Agent the pledgee’s right so to act with respect to such Warrants and that the pledgee is not the Company or any Affiliate of the Company. 

Section 3.06. Temporary Warrants. Until definitive Warrants are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Warrant Agent
will countersign temporary Warrants. Temporary Warrants will be substantially in the form of definitive Warrants but may have insertions, substitutions, omissions and other variations determined to be appropriate by the Officer executing the
temporary Warrants, as evidenced by the execution of the temporary Warrants. If temporary Warrants are issued, the Company will cause definitive Warrants to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Warrants, the
temporary Warrants will be exchangeable for definitive Warrants upon surrender of the temporary Warrants without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any temporary Warrants, the Company will execute and the Warrant Agent will
countersign and deliver in exchange therefor a like amount of definitive Warrants. Until so exchanged, the temporary Warrants will be entitled to the same benefits under the Indenture as definitive Warrants. 

Section 3.07. Cancellation. The Company at any time may deliver to the Warrant Agent for cancellation any Warrants previously
countersigned and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the Warrant Agent for cancellation any Warrants previously countersigned hereunder which the Company has not issued and sold. Any
Registrar will forward to the Warrant Agent any Warrants surrendered to it for transfer, exchange or exercise. The Warrant Agent will cancel all Warrants surrendered for transfer, exchange, exercise or cancellation and dispose of them in accordance
with its normal procedures or the written instructions of the Company. The Company may not issue new Warrants to replace Warrants that have been exercised or delivered to the Warrant Agent for cancellation. 

Section 3.08. CUSIP Numbers. The Company in issuing the Warrants may use “CUSIP” numbers, and the Warrant Agent will use
CUSIP numbers in notices as a convenience to Holders, the notice to state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Warrants or as contained in any notice to any Holder. The Company will promptly
notify the Warrant Agent of any change in the CUSIP numbers. 

  
 6 

 Section 3.09. Registration, Transfer And Exchange. (a) The Warrants will be
issued in registered form only, and the Company shall cause the Warrant Agent to maintain a register (the “Register”) of the Warrants, for registering the record ownership of the Warrants by the Holders and transfers and exchanges
of the Warrants. 
 (b) (i) Each Global Warrant will be registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee and, so long
as DTC is serving as the Depositary thereof, will bear the DTC Legend. 
 (ii) Each Global Warrant will be delivered to the
Warrant Agent as custodian for the Depositary. Transfers of a Global Warrant (but not a beneficial interest therein) will be limited to transfers thereof in whole, but not in part, to the Depositary, its successors or their respective nominees,
except (1) as set forth in Section 3.09(b)(iv) and (2) transfers of portions thereof in the form of Certificated Warrants may be made upon request of an Agent Member (for itself or on behalf of a beneficial owner) by written notice
given to the Warrant Agent by or on behalf of the Depositary in accordance with customary procedures of the Depositary and in compliance with this Section and Section 3.10. 

(iii) Agent Members will have no rights under the Agreement with respect to any Global Warrant held on their behalf by the
Depositary, and the Depositary may be treated by the Company, the Warrant Agent and any agent of the Company or the Warrant Agent as the absolute owner and Holder of such Global Warrant for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Depositary or its nominee may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person (including any Agent Member and any Person that holds a beneficial interest in a Global Warrant through an Agent Member) to take any action which a Holder is entitled to
take under the Warrant or the Warrants, and nothing herein will impair, as between the Depositary and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of any security. 

(iv) If (x) the Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for a Global
Warrant and a successor depositary is not appointed by the Company within 90 days of the notice or (y) the Warrant Agent has received a request from the Depositary, the Warrant Agent will promptly exchange each beneficial interest in the Global
Warrant for one or more Certificated Warrants in authorized denominations having an equal aggregate principal amount registered in the name of the owner of such beneficial interest, as identified to the Warrant Agent by the Depositary, and thereupon
the Global Warrant will be deemed canceled. 
 (c) Each Certificated Warrant will be registered in the name of the holder
thereof or its nominee. 
 (d) A Holder may transfer a Warrant (or a beneficial interest therein) to another Person or
exchange a Warrant (or a beneficial interest therein) for another Warrant by presenting to the Warrant Agent a written request therefor stating the name of the proposed transferee or requesting such an exchange, accompanied by any certification,
opinion or 

  
 7 

 
other document required by the Agreement. The Warrant Agent will promptly register any transfer or exchange that meets the requirements of this Section by noting the same in the register
maintained by the Warrant Agent for the purpose; provided that no transfer or exchange will be effective until it is registered in such register. Prior to the registration of any transfer, the Company, the Warrant Agent and their agents will
treat the Person in whose name the Warrant is registered as the owner and Holder thereof for all purposes, and will not be affected by notice to the contrary. 

From time to time the Company will execute and the Warrant Agent will countersign additional Warrants as necessary in order to permit the
registration of a transfer or exchange in accordance with this Section. All Warrants issued upon transfer or exchange shall be the duly authorized, executed and delivered Warrants of the Company entitled to the benefits of the Agreement. 

No service charge will be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of any Warrant, but the Company may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than a transfer tax or other similar governmental charge payable upon exchange pursuant to Section 3.09(b)(iv)). 

(e) (i) Global Warrant to Global Warrant. If a beneficial interest in a Global Warrant is transferred or
exchanged for a beneficial interest in another Global Warrant, the Warrant Agent will (x) record a decrease in the amount of the Global Warrant being transferred or exchanged equal to the amount of such transfer or exchange and (y) record
a like increase in the amount of the other Global Warrant. Any beneficial interest in one Global Warrant that is transferred to a Person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in another Global Warrant, or exchanged for an interest in another
Global Warrant, will, upon transfer or exchange, cease to be an interest in such Global Warrant and become an interest in the other Global Warrant and, accordingly, will thereafter be subject to all transfer and exchange restrictions, if any, and
other procedures applicable to beneficial interests in such other Global Warrant for as long as it remains such an interest. 

(ii) Global Warrant to Certificated Warrant. If a beneficial interest in a Global Warrant is transferred or exchanged
for a Certificated Warrant, the Warrant Agent will (x) record a decrease in the principal amount of such Global Warrant equal to the principal amount of such transfer or exchange and (y) deliver a new Certificated Warrants to the
transferee (in the case of a transfer) or the owner of such beneficial interest (in the case of an exchange), registered in the name of such transferee or owner, as applicable. 

(iii) Certificated Warrant to Global Warrant. If a Certificated Warrant is transferred or exchanged for a beneficial
interest in a Global Warrant, the Warrant Agent will (x) cancel such Certificated Warrant, (y) record an increase in such Global Warrant equal to the number of Warrants being transferred or exchanged and (z) in the event that such transfer
or exchange involves less than the entire amount of the canceled Certificated Warrant, deliver to the Holder thereof one or more new Certificated Warrants having an aggregate number of Warrants equal to the untransferred or unexchanged portion of
the canceled Certificated Warrant, registered in the name of the Holder thereof. 

  
 8 

 (iv) Certificated Warrant to Certificated Warrant. If a Certificated
Warrant is transferred or exchanged for another Certificated Warrant, the Warrant Agent will (x) cancel the Certificated Warrant being transferred or exchanged, (y) deliver one or more new Certificated Warrants having an aggregate
principal amount equal to the amount of Warrants being transferred or exchanged to the transferee (in the case of a transfer) or the Holder of the canceled Certificated Warrant (in the case of an exchange), registered in the name of such transferee
or Holder, as applicable, and (z) if such transfer or exchange involves less than the entire amount of the canceled Certificated Warrant, deliver to the Holder thereof one or more Certificated Warrants having an aggregate amount of Warrants
equal to the untransferred or unexchanged portion of the canceled Certificated Warrant, registered in the name of the Holder thereof. 

Section 3.10. Restrictions On Transfer And Exchange. Assuming the accuracy of the Holder’s representations and warranties in
the Exchange Agreement, by and between the Company and the Holder, dated as of the date hereof (the “Exchange Agreement”), the Units were issued in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and
are free of any restrictions on resale by such Holder pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act. For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, the Company acknowledges that, assuming the accuracy of such
Holders’ representations and warranties in the Exchange Agreement, the holding period for the Units (including the Notes, the Warrants and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants) may be tacked onto the holding period
of the Exchanged Notes (as such term is defined in the Exchange Agreement) and the Company agrees not to take a position to the contrary thereto. 

ARTICLE 4 

SEPARATION OF WARRANTS; TERMS OF WARRANTS;
EXERCISE OF WARRANTS 
 Section 4.01. Separation Of Warrants; Terms Of Warrants;
Exercise Of Warrants. (a) The Notes and Warrants will not be separately transferable until the Separation Date. Each Warrant not exercised prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on October 1, 2025 (the “Expiration
Date”) shall become void and all rights thereunder and all rights in respect thereof under this agreement shall cease as of such time. 

(a) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Warrants shall be exercisable, at the election of the Holders thereof, either
in full or from time to time in part during the period commencing at the opening of business on the Separation Date and until 5:00 p.m., New York City time on the Expiration Date, and shall entitle any Holder thereof to receive from the Company
the number of fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares, which the Holder may at the time be entitled to receive on exercise of such Warrants and payment of the exercise price set forth in the form of Warrant attached as Exhibit A hereto (as
adjusted from time to time hereunder, the “Exercise Price”) pursuant to the procedures described in the next paragraph. No adjustments as to dividends will be made upon exercise of the Warrants. 

  
 9 

 (b) The Exercise Price shall be paid by converting Warrants into shares of Common
Stock, after which the Company will issue to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the result obtained by (i) subtracting B from A, (ii) dividing the result by A, and (iii) multiplying the difference by C as set
forth in the following equation: 
  

							
	X =  	  	  (A - B)  	 	x C	  	
	  	A	 	  	

 where: 
  

			
		
	 X =
	  	the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise pursuant to this paragraph (b).
		
	 A =
	  	the Daily Price on the day immediately preceding the date on which the Holder delivers written notice to the Company pursuant to paragraph (c).
		
	 B =
	  	the Exercise Price.
		
	 C =
	  	the number of shares of Common Stock as to which the Warrants are then being exercised (prior to payment of the Exercise Price).

 If the foregoing calculation results in a negative number, then no shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon exercise
pursuant to this paragraph (b). 
 (c) In order to exercise all or any of the Warrants, the Holder thereof must deliver to
the Warrant Agent at its Corporate Trust Office (i) such Warrants, (ii) the form of election to purchase on the reverse thereof duly filled in and signed, which signature shall be medallion guaranteed by an institution which is a member of
a Securities Transfer Association recognized signature guarantee program, and (iii) payment to the Warrant Agent for the account of the Company of the then-current Exercise Price (in the manner set forth in paragraph (b) above) for the
number of Warrant Shares in respect of which the Warrants are being exercised. 
 (d) Upon compliance with the provisions set
forth above, the Warrant Agent shall request from the Company and the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered with all reasonable dispatch, to or upon the written order of the Holder and in such name or names as the Holder may designate, a
certificate or certificates for the number of whole Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of such Warrants or other securities or property to which such Holder is entitled, together with cash in lieu of fractional shares as provided in
Section 6.02 hereof. Such certificate or certificates or other securities or property shall be deemed to have been issued, and any person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such Warrant Shares
or other securities or property, as of the date of the surrender of such Warrants and payment of the Exercise Price, notwithstanding that the stock transfer books of the Company shall then be closed or the certificates or other securities or
property have not been delivered. 

  
 10 

 (e) If less than all the Warrants represented by a Warrant certificate are
exercised, such Warrant certificate shall be surrendered and a new Warrant certificate of the same tenor and for the number of Warrants which were not exercised shall be executed by the Company and delivered to the Warrant Agent and the Warrant
Agent shall countersign the new Warrant certificate, registered in such name or names as may be directed in writing by the Holder, and shall deliver the new Warrant certificate to the Person or Persons entitled to receive the same. 

(f) All Warrant certificates surrendered upon exercise of Warrants shall be cancelled by the Warrant Agent. Such cancelled
Warrant certificates shall then be disposed of by the Warrant Agent in a manner satisfactory to the Company. The Warrant Agent shall account promptly to the Company with respect to Warrants exercised and concurrently pay to the Company all monies
received by the Warrant Agent for the purchase of the Warrant Shares through the exercise of such Warrants. 
 (g) The
Warrant Agent shall keep copies of this Agreement and any notices given or received hereunder available for inspection by the Holders during normal business hours at its office. The Company shall supply the Warrant Agent from time to time with such
numbers of copies of this Agreement as the Warrant Agent may request. 
 ARTICLE 5 

COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY 

Section 5.01. Maintenance Of Office Or Agency. The Company will maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York, an

Company will give prompt written notice to the Warrant Agent of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Company fails to maintain any such required office or agency or fails to furnish the Warrant
Agent with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served to the Warrant Agent. 
 The
Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Warrants may be surrendered or presented for any of such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations. The Company will give prompt written
notice to the Warrant Agent of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency. 

Section 5.02. Payment Of Taxes. The Company will pay all documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer taxes in respect of the
issuance or delivery of Warrant Shares upon the exercise of Warrants; provided that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax or taxes which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue of any Warrants or any Warrant
Shares in a name other than that of the registered holder of a Warrant surrendered upon exercise (other than a transfer tax or other similar governmental charge payable upon exchange pursuant to Section 3.09(b)(iv)), and the Company shall not
be required to issue or deliver such 

  
 11 

 
Warrant unless or until the person or persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company
that such tax has been paid. 
 Section 5.03. Reports. (a) Whether or not the Company is subject to the reporting
requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company must provide the Warrant Agent and Holders within the time periods specified in those sections and the regulations thereunder with 

(i) all quarterly and annual financial information that would be required to be contained in a filing with the Commission on
Forms 10-Q and 10-K if the Company were required to file such forms, including a “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and, with respect to annual information only, a report thereon by
the Company’s certified independent accountants, and 
 (ii) all current reports that would be required to be filed with
the Commission on Form 8-K if the Company were required to file such reports. 
 In addition, whether or not required by the Commission, the
Company will, if the Commission will accept the filing, file a copy of all of the information and reports referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) with the Commission for public availability within the time periods specified in the
Commission’s rules and regulations. In addition, the Company will make the information and reports available to securities analysts and prospective investors upon request. 

(b) For so long as any of the Warrants or Warrant Shares remain outstanding and constitute “restricted securities” under Rule 144,
if at all, the Company will furnish to the Holders and prospective investors, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144(c) and Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act. 

Section 5.04. Reservation Of Warrant Shares. (a) The Company will at all times reserve and keep available for issuance and
delivery, free and clear of all liens, security interests, charges and other encumbrances or restrictions on sale and free and clear of all preemptive rights, such number of its authorized but unissued Common Stock or other securities of the Company
from time to time issuable upon exercise of the Warrants as will be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Warrants. 

(b) The Company shall reserve such number of authorized securities as shall be required for such purpose. The Company will keep
a copy of this Agreement on file with the Transfer Agent and with every subsequent transfer agent for any of the Company’s securities issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants. The Warrant Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized to requisition
from time to time from such Transfer Agent the certificates for securities of the Company required to honor outstanding Warrants upon exercise thereof in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Company will supply such Transfer Agent with
duly executed certificates for such purposes and will provide or otherwise make available any cash which may be payable as provided in Section 6.02 hereof. The Company will furnish such Transfer Agent a copy of all notices of adjustments, and
certificates related thereto, transmitted to each holder pursuant to Section 6.03 hereof. 

  
 12 

 (c) Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment pursuant to
Section 6.01 hereof to reduce the Exercise Price below the then par value (if any) of the Warrant Shares, the Company will take any corporate action which may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary in order that the Company may validly
and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares at the Exercise Price as so adjusted. 
 (d) The Company
covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon exercise of Warrants will, upon issue, be fully paid, nonassessable, free of preemptive rights and free from all taxes, liens, charges and security interests with respect to the issuance
thereof. 
 Section 5.05. Obtaining Stock Exchange Listings. The Company will from time to time take all action which may be
necessary so that the Warrant Shares, immediately upon their issuance upon the exercise of Warrants, will be listed on the principal securities exchanges or other markets within the United States of America, if any, on which other shares of Common
Stock are then listed, if any. 
 ARTICLE 6 

ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER
OF WARRANT SHARES ISSUABLE 
 Section 6.01. Adjustment Of Exercise Price
And Number Of Warrant Shares Issuable. The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of each Warrant are subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of the events enumerated in this
Section 6.01. For purposes of this Section 6.01, “Common Stock” means shares now or hereafter authorized of any class of common stock of the Company and any other stock of the Company, however designated,
that has the right (subject to any prior rights of any class or series of preferred stock) to participate in any distribution of the assets or earnings of the Company without limit as to per share amount. 

In the event that, at any time as a result of the provisions of this Section, the Holders of the Warrants shall become entitled upon
subsequent exercise to receive any shares of capital stock of the Company other than Common Stock, the number of such other shares so receivable upon exercise of this Warrant shall thereafter be subject to adjustment from time to time in a manner
and on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions contained herein. 
 (a) Adjustment for Change in
Capital Stock. 
 If the Company (i) pays a dividend or makes a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of its Common
Stock, (ii) subdivides its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, (iii) combines its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, (iv) makes a distribution on its Common Stock in
shares of its capital stock other than Common Stock or (v) issues by reclassification of its Common Stock any shares of its capital stock, then the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such action shall be

  
 13 

 
proportionately adjusted so that the holder of any Warrant thereafter exercised may receive the aggregate number and kind of shares of capital stock of the Company which he would have owned
immediately following such action if such Warrant had been exercised immediately prior to such action. 
 The adjustment shall become
effective immediately after the record date in the case of a dividend or distribution and immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification. If, after an adjustment, a holder of a Warrant upon
exercise of it may receive shares of two or more classes of capital stock of the Company, the Company shall determine, in good faith, the allocation of the adjusted Exercise Price between the classes of capital stock. After such allocation, the
exercise privilege and the Exercise Price of each class of capital stock shall thereafter be subject to adjustment on terms comparable to those applicable to Common Stock in this Section 6.01. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever
any event listed above shall occur. 
 (b) Adjustment for Rights Issue. 

If the Company distributes any rights, options or warrants to all holders of its Common Stock entitling them for a period expiring within 45
days after the record date mentioned below to purchase shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, Common Stock, at a price per share less than the Fair Value per share on that record date, the Exercise
Price shall be adjusted in accordance with the formula: 
  

									
		  		  	O +	 	  N x P  	  	
	E’ =	  	  E  x	  		 	        M        	  	
		  		  		 	O + N	  	

 where: 
  

					
	E’	  	=	  	the adjusted Exercise Price.
			
	E	  	=	  	the then current Exercise Price.
			
	O	  	=	  	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the record date.
			
	N	  	=	  	the number of additional shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants.
			
	P	  	=	  	the aggregate price per share of the additional shares.
			
	M	  	=	  	the Fair Value per share of Common Stock on the record date.

 The adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such rights, options or warrants are issued and shall
become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive the rights, options or warrants. If at the end of the period during which such rights, options or warrants are exercisable, not all rights,
options or warrants shall have been exercised, the Exercise Price shall be immediately readjusted to what it would have been if “N” in the above formula had been the number of shares actually issued. 

  
 14 

 (c) Adjustment for Other Distributions. 

If the Company distributes to all holders of its Common Stock any of its assets or debt securities or any rights or warrants to purchase debt
securities of the Company, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted in accordance with the formula: 
  

							
	E’ =	  	  E     x  	  	  M – F  	  	
		  		  	M	  	

 where: 
  

					
	E’	  	=	  	the adjusted Exercise Price.
			
	E	  	=	  	the then current Exercise Price.
			
	M	  	=	  	the Fair Value per share of Common Stock on the record date mentioned below.
			
	F	  	=	  	the fair market value on the record date of the assets, securities, rights or warrants to be distributed in respect of one share of Common Stock as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors.

 The adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such distribution is made and shall become effective
immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive the distribution. 
 This Section 6.01(c)
does not apply to rights, options or warrants referred to in Section 6.01(b) hereof. 
 (d) RESERVED. 

(e) RESERVED. 

(f) RESERVED. 

(g) Fair Value. In Section 6.01(b) and (c) hereof, the “Fair Value” per share of Common Stock
at any date of determination shall be, the average (weighted by daily trading volume) of the Daily Prices per share of the applicable class of Common Stock for the 10 consecutive trading days immediately prior to such date. 

(h) When De Minimis Adjustment May Be Deferred. 

No adjustment in the Exercise Price need be made unless the adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 1% in the Exercise
Price. Any adjustments that are not made 

  
 15 

 
shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. All calculations under this Section 6.01 shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest 1/10,000th of a
share, as the case may be, it being understood that no such rounding shall be made under subsection (n) (and, in calculations made pursuant to such paragraph, the adjusted Exercise Price shall refer to such adjusted price before rounding). 

(i) When No Adjustment Required. 

No adjustment need be made for a transaction referred to in Section 6.01(a), (b), or (c) hereof, if Holders are to participate
(without being required to exercise their Warrants) in the transaction on a basis and with notice that the Board of Directors determines to be fair and appropriate in light of the basis and notice on which holders of Common Stock participate in the
transaction. No adjustment need be made for (i) rights to purchase Common Stock pursuant to a Company plan for reinvestment of dividends or interest, or (ii) a change in the par value or no par value of the Common Stock. To the extent the
Warrants become convertible into cash, no adjustment need be made thereafter as to the cash. Interest will not accrue on the cash. 

(j) Notice of Adjustment. 

Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted, the Company shall provide the notices required by Section 6.03 hereof. 

(k) Reorganization of Company. 

If the Company consolidates or merges with or into, or transfers or leases all or substantially all its assets to, any Person, upon
consummation of such transaction the Warrants shall automatically become exercisable for the kind and amount of securities, cash or other assets which the Holder of a Warrant would have owned immediately after the consolidation, merger, transfer or
lease if the Holder had exercised the Warrant immediately before the effective date of the transaction; provided, however, that if the holders of shares of Common Stock were entitled to exercise a right of election as to the kind or amount of
securities, cash or other assets receivable upon such consolidation, merger, transfer or lease, or upon a dissolution, liquidation or winding up following any such sale, lease, license, transfer or conveyance, then the kind and amount of securities,
cash or other for which each Warrant shall become exercisable shall be deemed to be the weighted average of the kind and amount received per share by the holders of shares of Common Stock in such consolidation, merger, transfer or lease, or upon a
dissolution, liquidation or winding up following any such sale, lease, license, transfer or conveyance, that affirmatively make such election. Concurrently with the consummation of such transaction, the Person formed by or surviving any such
consolidation or merger if other than the Company, or the Person to which such transfer or lease shall have been made, shall enter into a supplemental Agreement so providing and further providing for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent
as may be practical to the adjustments provided for in this Section 6.01. The successor Company shall mail to Warrant Holders a notice describing the supplemental Agreement. If the issuer of securities deliverable upon exercise of Warrants
under the supplemental Agreement is an Affiliate of the formed, surviving, transferee or lessee person, that issuer shall join in the supplemental Agreement. If this Section 6.01(k) applies to a transaction, Section 6.01(a),(b), and
(c) hereof do not apply. 

  
 16 

 (l) Company Determination Final. 

Any determination that the Company or the Board of Directors must make pursuant to Section 6.01(a) through (i) hereof is conclusive
in the absence of manifest error or bad faith. 
 (m) Adjustment in Number of Shares. 

Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 6.01, each Warrant outstanding prior to the making of the adjustment
in the Exercise Price shall thereafter evidence the right to receive upon payment of the adjusted Exercise Price that number of shares of Common Stock (calculated to the nearest hundredth) obtained from the following formula: 

 

									
	N’    =    	  	N   x	  	    E    	  		  	
		  		  	 E’	  		  	

 where: 
  

					
	N’	  	=	  	the adjusted number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of a Warrant by payment of the adjusted Exercise Price.
			
	N	  	=	  	the number or Warrant Shares previously issuable upon exercise of a Warrant by payment of the Exercise Price prior to adjustment.
			
	E’	  	=	  	the adjusted Exercise Price.
			
	E	  	=	  	the Exercise Price prior to adjustment.

 (n) Form of Warrants. 

Irrespective of any adjustments in the Exercise Price or the number or kind of shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants, Warrants
theretofore or thereafter issued may continue to express the same price and number and kind of shares as are stated in the Warrants initially issuable pursuant to this Agreement. 

Section 6.02. Fractional Interests. The Company shall not be required to issue fractional Warrant Shares or scrip representing
fractional shares on the exercise of Warrants. If more than one Warrant shall be presented for exercise in full at the same time by the same Holder, the number of full Warrant Shares which shall be issuable upon the exercise thereof shall be
computed on the basis of the aggregate number of Warrant Shares purchasable on exercise of the Warrants so presented. If any fraction of a Warrant Share would, except for the provisions of this Section 6.02, be issuable on the exercise of any
Warrants (or specified portion thereof), the Company shall pay an amount in cash equal to the Fair Value per Warrant Share, as determined on the business day immediately preceding the date the Warrant is presented for exercise, multiplied by such
fraction, computed to the nearest whole U.S. cent. 
 Section 6.03. Notices To Warrant Holders. (a) Upon any adjustment of
the Exercise Price pursuant to Section 6.01 hereof, the Company shall promptly thereafter (i) cause to be filed with the Warrant Agent a certificate of the Company setting forth the Exercise Price after such 

  
 17 

 
adjustment and setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculations are based and setting forth the number of Warrant Shares (or portion
thereof) or other securities or property issuable after such adjustment in the Exercise Price, upon exercise of a Warrant and payment of the adjusted Exercise Price, which certificate shall be conclusive evidence of the correctness of the matters
set forth therein, and (ii) cause to be given to each of the Holders written notice of such adjustments by first-class mail, postage prepaid. Where appropriate, such notice may be given in advance and
included as a part of the notice required to be mailed under the other provisions of this Section 6.03. 
 (b) In case: 

(i) the Company shall authorize the issuance to all holders of shares of Common Stock of rights, options or warrants to
subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock or of any other subscription rights or warrants; 
 (ii) the Company shall
authorize the distribution to all holders of shares of Common Stock of evidences of its indebtedness or assets (other than dividends or distributions referred to in Section 6.01(a) hereof); 

(iii) of any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party, or of the transfer or lease of all or substantially all
assets of the Company, or of any reclassification or change of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a
subdivision or combination); or 
 (iv) of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the
Company; 
 then the Company shall cause to be filed with the Warrant Agent and shall cause to be given to each of the Holders, at least 20 days (or 10 days
in any case specified in clauses (i) or (ii) above) prior to the applicable record date hereinafter specified, or promptly in the case of events for which there is no record date, by first-class
mail, postage prepaid, a written notice stating (x) the date as of which the holders of record of shares of Common Stock to be entitled to receive any such rights, options, warrants or distribution are to be determined, or (y) the date on
which any such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is expected to become effective or consummated, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of record of shares of Common Stock shall be
entitled to exchange such shares for securities or other property, if any, deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding up. The failure to give the notice required by this
Section 6.03 or any defect therein shall not affect the legality or validity of any distribution, right, option, warrant, consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, or the vote upon any action. 

Section 6.04. No Rights As Stockholders. Nothing contained in this Agreement or the Warrants shall be construed as conferring upon
the holders of Warrants the right to vote or to consent or to receive notice as stockholders in respect of the meetings of stockholders or the election of directors of the Company or any other matter, or any rights whatsoever, including the right to
receive dividends, as stockholders of the Company.

upon exercise of Warrants. 
 (c) The Warrant Agent shall not be accountable with respect to the validity or value or the kind or amount of
any Warrant Shares or of any securities or property which may at any time be issued or delivered upon the exercise of any Warrant or with respect to whether any such Warrant Shares or other securities will, when issued, be validly issued and fully
paid and nonassessable, and makes no representation with respect thereto. 
 (d) The Warrant Agent shall not be responsible for any failure
of the Company to comply with any of the covenants contained in this Agreement or in the Warrants. 
 (e) In the absence of bad faith on its
part, the Warrant Agent may rely, and will be protected in acting or refraining from acting, upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence
of indebtedness or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. The Warrant Agent need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document, but, in the case of any document
which is specifically required to be furnished to the Warrant Agent pursuant to any provision hereof, the Warrant Agent shall examine the document to determine whether it conforms to the requirements of the Agreement (but need not confirm or
investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein). The Warrant Agent, in its discretion, may make further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it sees fit. 

(f) The Warrant Agent may act through its attorneys and agents and will not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent
appointed with due care. 

  
 19 

 (g) The Warrant Agent will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested
in it by the Agreement at the request or direction of any of the Holders, unless such Holders have offered to the Warrant Agent reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities that might be incurred by it in compliance
with such request or direction. All rights of action under this Agreement or under any of the Warrants may be enforced by the Warrant Agent without the possession of any of the Warrants or the production thereof at any trial or other proceeding
relative thereto, and any such action, suit or proceeding instituted by the Warrant Agent shall be brought in its name as Warrant Agent and any recovery of judgment shall be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Warrants, as their respective
rights or interests may appear. 
 (h) The Warrant Agent may consult with counsel, and the written advice of such counsel or any Opinion of
Counsel will be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon. 

(i) No provision of the Agreement will require the Warrant Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in
the performance of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of its rights or powers, unless it receives indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense. 

(j) The Warrant Agent shall act hereunder solely as agent for the Company, and its duties shall be determined solely by the provisions hereof.
No provision of the Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Warrant Agent from liability for its own grossly negligent action, its own grossly negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct. 

Section 7.02. Compensation; Indemnity. (a) The Company will pay the Warrant Agent compensation as agreed upon in writing for
its services. The Company will reimburse the Warrant Agent upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Warrant Agent, including the reasonable compensation and expenses of the Warrant
Agent’s agents and counsel. 
 (b) The Company will indemnify the Warrant Agent for, and hold it harmless against, any loss or
liability or expense incurred by it without gross negligence or bad faith on its part arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the Agreement and its duties under the Agreement and the Warrants, including the costs and
expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability and of complying with any process served upon it or any of its officers in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties under the Agreement and the Warrants,
except to the extent any such loss, liability or expense may be attributable to its gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Warrant Agent shall notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Warrant
Agent to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder. At the Warrant Agent’s sole discretion, the Company shall defend the claim and the Warrant Agent shall cooperate in the defense at the Company’s
expense. The Warrant Agent may have separate counsel and the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

  
 20 

 Section 7.03. Individual Rights Of Warrant Agent. The Warrant Agent, and any
stockholder, director, officer or employee of it, may buy, sell or deal in any of the Warrants or other securities of the Company or become pecuniarily interested in any transaction in which the Company may be interested, or contract with or lend
money to the Company or otherwise act as fully and freely as though it were not Warrant Agent under this Agreement. Nothing herein shall preclude the Warrant Agent from acting in any other capacity for the Company or for any other legal entity. An
Agent may do the same with like rights. 
 Section 7.04. Replacement of Warrant Agent. (a) The Warrant Agent 

(i) may resign at any time by written notice to the Company, 

(ii) may be removed at any time by the Holders of a majority of the outstanding Warrants by written notice to the Warrant
Agent, 
 (iii) shall, if no longer eligible under Section 7.06, be subject to removal upon the request of any Holder to
the Company 
 (iv) may be removed by the Company if: (A) the Warrant Agent is no longer eligible under
Section 7.06; (B) the Warrant Agent is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent; (C) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Warrant Agent or its property; or (D) the Warrant Agent becomes incapable of acting. 

A resignation or removal of the Warrant Agent and appointment of a successor Warrant Agent will become effective only upon the successor Warrant Agent’s
acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section. 
 (b) If the Warrant Agent has been removed by the Holders, Holders of a majority of
the Warrants may appoint a successor Warrant Agent with the consent of the Company. Otherwise, if the Warrant Agent resigns or is removed, or if a vacancy exists in the office of Warrant Agent for any reason, the Company will promptly appoint a
successor Warrant Agent. If the successor Warrant Agent does not deliver its written acceptance within 30 days after the retiring Warrant Agent resigns or is removed, the retiring Warrant Agent, the Company or the Holders of a majority of the
outstanding Warrants may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Warrant Agent.

by the successor Warrant Agent of a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Warrant Agent and to the Company, (i) the retiring Warrant Agent will transfer all property held by it as Warrant Agent to the successor Warrant Agent,
(ii) the resignation or removal of the retiring Warrant Agent will become effective, and (iii) the successor Warrant Agent will have all the rights, powers and duties of the Warrant Agent under the Warrant Agent. Upon request of any
successor Warrant Agent, the Company will execute any and all instruments for fully and vesting in and confirming to the successor Warrant Agent all such rights, powers and trusts. The Company will give notice of any resignation and any removal of
the Warrant Agent and each appointment of a successor Warrant Agent to all Holders, and include in the notice the name of the successor Warrant Agent and the address of its Corporate Trust Office.

 (d) Notwithstanding replacement of the Warrant Agent pursuant to this Section, the Company’s
obligations under Section 7.02 will continue for the benefit of the retiring Warrant Agent.

Agent By Merger. (a) If the Warrant Agent consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation or national banking association, the resulting, surviving or
transferee corporation or national banking association without any further act will be the successor Warrant Agent with the same effect as if the successor Warrant Agent had been named as the Warrant Agent in the Agreement. 

(b) If, at the time such successor to the Warrant Agent shall succeed to the agency created by this Agreement, any of the Warrants have been
countersigned but not delivered, the successor Warrant Agent may adopt the countersignature of the original Warrant Agent; and if any of the Warrants shall not have been countersigned, the successor Warrant Agent may countersign such Warrants, and
in all such cases such Warrants shall have the full force and effect provided in the Warrants and in this Agreement. 

Section 7.06. Eligibility. The Agreement must always have a Warrant Agent that has a combined capital and surplus of at
least $50,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition and satisfies the eligibility requirements set forth in Section 310(a) of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939. 

Section 7.07. Holder Lists. The Warrant Agent shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent
list available to it of the names and addresses of all Holders. If the Warrant Agent is not the Warrant Registrar, the Company shall promptly furnish to the Warrant Agent at such times as the Warrant Agent may request in writing, a list in such form
and as of such date as the Warrant Agent may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Holders. 
 ARTICLE 8 

MISCELLANEOUS 

Section 8.01. Warrantholder Actions. (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent to amendment,
supplement or waiver or other action provided by this Agreement to be given or taken by a Holder (an “act”) may be evidenced by an instrument signed by the Holder delivered to the Warrant Agent. The fact and date of
the execution of the instrument, or the authority of the person executing it, may be proved in any manner that the Warrant Agent deems sufficient. 

(b) The Warrant Agent may make reasonable rules for action by or at a meeting of Holders, which will be binding on all the Holders. 

(c) Any act by the Holder of any Warrant binds that Holder and every subsequent Holder of a Warrant certificate that evidences the same
Warrant of the acting Holder, even if no notation thereof appears on the Warrant certificate. Subject to paragraph (d), a Holder may revoke an act as to its Warrants, but only if the Warrant Agent receives the notice of revocation before the date
the amendment or waiver or other consequence of the act becomes effective. 

  
 22 

 (d) The Company may, but is not obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining
the Holders entitled to act with respect to any amendment or waiver or in any other regard. If a record date is fixed, those Persons that were Holders at such record date and only those Persons will be entitled to act, or to revoke any previous act,
whether or not those Persons continue to be Holders after the record date. No act will be valid or effective for more than 90 days after the record date. 

Section 8.02. Notices. (a) Any notice or communication to the Company will be deemed given if in writing (i) when
delivered in person or (ii) five days after mailing when mailed by first class mail, or (iii) when sent by facsimile transmission, with transmission confirmed. Any notice to the Warrant Agent will be effective only upon receipt. In each
case the notice or communication should be addressed as follows: 
 if to the Company: 

Goodrich Petroleum Corporation 

801 Louisiana, Suite 700 

Houston, Texas 77002 

Facsimile: (713) 780-9254 

Attention: Chief Financial Officer 

if to the Warrant Agent: 

Kathy O’Kane 

American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC 

16633 N. Dallas Parkway, Suite 600 

Addison, TX 75001 

Facsimile: 972.588.1890 

The Company or the Warrant Agent by notice to the other may designate additional or different addresses for subsequent notices or
communications. 
 (b) Except as otherwise expressly provided with respect to published notices, any notice or communication to a Holder
will be deemed given when mailed to the Holder at its address as it appears on the Register by first class mail or, as to any Global Warrant registered in the name of DTC or its nominee, as agreed by the Company, the Warrant Agent and DTC. Copies of
any notice or communication to a Holder, if given by the Company, will be mailed to the Warrant Agent at the same time. Defect in mailing a notice or communication to any particular Holder will not affect its sufficiency with respect to other
Holders. 
 (c) Where the Agreement provides for notice, the notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice,
either before or after the event, and the waiver will be the equivalent of the notice. Waivers of notice by Holders must be filed with the Warrant Agent, but such filing is not a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance
upon such waivers. 

  
 23 

 Section 8.03. Supplements And Amendments. (a) The Company and the Warrant Agent
may amend or supplement the Agreement or the Warrants without notice to or the consent of any Holder 
 (i) to cure any
ambiguity, defect or inconsistency in the Agreement or the Warrants; 
 (ii) to comply with Section 6.01(k); 

(iii) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of an appointment hereunder by a successor Warrant Agent; or 

(iv) to make any other change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder. 

(b) Except as otherwise provided in paragraphs (a) or (c), the Company and the Warrant Agent may amend the Agreement and the Warrants
with the written consent of the Holders of a majority of the outstanding Warrants, and the Holders of a majority of the outstanding Warrants by written notice to the Warrant Agent may waive future compliance by the Company with any provision of the
Agreement or the Warrants. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (b), without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment
or waiver may not 
 (i) increase the Exercise Price; or 

(ii) decrease the number of shares of Common Stock or other securities or property issuable upon exercise of the Warrants 

except, in each case, for adjustments provided for in the Agreement. 

(d) It is not necessary for Holders to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but is sufficient if their
consent approves the substance thereof. 
 (e) An amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section will become effective on receipt by the
Warrant Agent of written consents from the Holders of the requisite percentage of the outstanding Warrants. After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section becomes effective, the Company will send to the Holders affected thereby a notice
briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Company to send such notice, or any defect therein, will not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture or waiver. 

(f) After an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, it will bind every Holder unless it is of the type requiring the consent of
each Holder affected. If the amendment, 

  
 24 

 
supplement or waiver is of the type requiring the consent of each Holder affected, the amendment, supplement or waiver will bind each Holder that has consented to it and every subsequent Holder
of a Warrant with respect to which consent was granted. 
 (g) If an amendment, supplement or waiver changes the terms of a Warrant, the
Warrant Agent may require the Holder to deliver it to the Warrant Agent so that the Warrant Agent may place an appropriate notation of the changed terms on the Warrant and return it to the Holder, or exchange it for a new Warrant that reflects the
changed terms. The Warrant Agent may also place an appropriate notation on any Warrant thereafter countersigned. However, the effectiveness of the amendment, supplement or waiver is not affected by any failure to annotate or exchange Warrants in
this fashion. 
 (h) The Warrant Agent is entitled to receive, and will be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating
that the execution of any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this section is authorized or permitted by the Agreement. If the Warrant Agent has received such an Opinion of Counsel, it shall sign the amendment, supplement or
waiver so long as the same does not adversely affect the rights of the Warrant Agent. The Warrant Agent may, but is not obligated to, execute any amendment, supplement or waiver that affects the Warrant Agent’s own rights, duties or immunities
under the Agreement. 
 Section 8.04. Governing Law. The Agreement and the Warrants shall be governed by, and construed in
accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. 
 Section 8.05. No Adverse Interpretation of Other Agreements. The
Agreement may not be used to interpret another agreement of the Company, and no such agreement may be used to interpret the Agreement. 

Section 8.06. Successors. All agreements of the Company in the Agreement and the Warrants will bind its successors. All agreements
of the Warrant Agent in the Agreement will bind its successors. 
 Section 8.07. Duplicate Originals. The parties may sign any
number of copies of the Agreement. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together represent the same agreement. 

Section 8.08. Separability. In case any provision in the Agreement or in the Warrants is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the
validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions will not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 

Section 8.09. Table of Contents and Headings. The Table of Contents and headings of the Articles and Sections of the Agreement
have been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not to be considered a part of the Agreement and in no way modify or restrict any of the terms and provisions of the Indenture. 

Section 8.10. Benefits Of This Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to give to any person or corporation other
than the Company, the Warrant Agent and the registered holders of Warrants any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Agreement; but this Agreement shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Company, the Warrant Agent and the
registered holders of Warrants.

1. Warrant Agreement 
 The
Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate are part of a duly authorized issue of Warrants issued or to be issued pursuant to a Warrant Agreement dated as of October 1, 2015 (the “Warrant Agreement”), between the Company
and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent (the “Warrant Agent”), which Warrant Agreement is hereby incorporated by reference in and made a part of this instrument and is hereby referred to for a
description of the rights, limitation of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Warrant Agent, the Company and the holders (the words “holders” or “holder” meaning the registered holders or
registered holder) of the Warrants. To the extent permitted by law, in the event of an inconsistency or conflict between the terms of this Warrant and the Warrant Agreement, the terms of the Warrant Agreement will prevail. 

2. Exercise 
 Warrants may
be exercised at any time on or after the Separation Date (as defined in the Warrant Agreement) and on or before 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the Expiration Date. In order to exercise all or any of the Warrants represented by this Warrant
Certificate, the holder must deliver to the Warrant Agent at its Corporate Trust Office set forth in the Warrant Agreement this Warrant Certificate and the form of election to purchase on the reverse hereof duly completed, which signature shall be
medallion guaranteed by an institution which is a member of a Securities Transfer Association recognized signature guarantee program, and upon payment to the Warrant Agent for the account of the Company of the Exercise Price in the manner set forth
in the Warrant Agreement for the number of Warrant Shares in respect of which such Warrants are then exercised. 
 No Warrant may be
exercised after 5:00 p.m., New York City time on the Expiration Date, and to the extent not exercised by such time the Warrants shall become void. 

3. Adjustments 
 The
Warrant Agreement provides that, upon the occurrence of certain events, the Exercise Price set forth on the face hereof may, subject to certain conditions, be adjusted. The Warrant Agreement also provides that the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon the exercise of each Warrant shall be adjusted in certain events. 
 4. No Fractional Shares. 

No fractions of a share of Common Stock will be issued upon the exercise of any Warrant, but the Company will pay the cash value thereof
determined as provided in the Warrant Agreement. 

  
 A-2 

 5. Registered Form; Transfer and Exchange. 

The Warrants are in registered form. Warrant Certificates, when surrendered at the office of the Warrant Agent by the registered holder thereof
in person or by legal representative or attorney duly authorized in writing, may be exchanged, in the manner and subject to the limitations provided in the Warrant Agreement, but without payment of any service charge (except as specified in the
Warrant Agreement), for another Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates of like tenor evidencing in the aggregate a like number of Warrants. 

Upon due presentation for registration of transfer of this Warrant Certificate at the office of the Warrant Agent a new Warrant Certificate or
Warrant Certificates of like tenor and evidencing in the aggregate a like number of Warrants shall be issued to the transferee(s) in exchange for this Warrant Certificate, subject to the limitations provided in the Warrant Agreement, without charge
except for any tax or other governmental charge imposed in connection therewith. 
 The Company and the Warrant Agent may deem and treat the
registered holder(s) thereof as the absolute owner(s) of this Warrant Certificate (notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing hereon made by anyone), for the purpose of any exercise hereof, of any distribution to the holder(s)
hereof, and for all other purposes, and neither the Company nor the Warrant Agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. Neither the Warrants nor this Warrant Certificate entitles any holder hereof to any rights of a stockholder of the
Company. 
 6. Countersignature. 

This Warrant Certificate shall not be valid unless countersigned by the Warrant Agent, as such term is used in the Warrant Agreement. 

7. Governing Law. 
 This
Warrant Certificate shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York 
 8.
Abbreviations. 
 Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in

other and for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders (as defined below) of the Company’s 8.00% Second Lien Senior Secured Notes due 2018 (as further defined herein, the “Notes”): 

ARTICLE ONE 
 DEFINITIONS

Person becomes or is merged with and into a Restricted Subsidiary or (ii) assumed in connection with the acquisition of assets from such Person, in each case whether or not Incurred by such Person in connection with, or in anticipation or
contemplation of, such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary or such acquisition. Acquired Indebtedness shall be deemed to have been Incurred, with respect to clause (i) of the preceding sentence, on the date such Person becomes or is merged
with and into a Restricted Subsidiary and, with respect to clause (ii) of the preceding sentence, on the date of consummation of such acquisition of assets. 

“Act of Pari Passu Debtholders” means, as to any matter at any time, a direction in writing delivered to the Collateral
Trustee by or with the written consent of the holders of Pari Passu Indebtedness representing the Required Pari Passu Debtholders.

Gas Business; 
 (2) the Capital Stock of a Person that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of the acquisition of such Capital Stock
by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary; or 
 (3) Capital Stock constituting a minority interest in any Person that at such time is a

 “Additional Interest” means any additional interest payable pursuant to a

 “Additional Notes” means any further Notes (other than (i) the Initial Notes and
(ii) any Exchange Notes issued in exchange for the Initial Notes) issued under this Indenture in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, including Sections 2.01(f), 2.02, 2.16 and 4.09, as part of the same series as the Initial Notes,
ranking equally with those Initial Notes and having identical terms and conditions to the Initial Notes (except that there may be differences in (a) the date of issuance, (b) the issue price, (c) rights under a related Registration

“Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets” of the Company means (without duplication), as of the date of determination, the
remainder of: 
 (a) the sum of: 

(1) discounted future net revenues from proved oil and gas reserves of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries calculated
in accordance with Commission guidelines before any state or federal income taxes, as estimated by the Company in a reserve report prepared as of the end of the Company’s most recently completed fiscal year for which audited financial
statements are available, as increased by, as of the date of determination, the estimated discounted future net revenues from 

(A) estimated proved oil and gas reserves acquired since such year end, which reserves were not reflected in such year end
reserve report, and 
 (B) estimated oil and gas reserves attributable to extensions, discoveries and other additions and
upward revisions of estimates of proved oil and gas reserves since such year end due to exploration, development or exploitation, production or other activities, which would, in accordance with standard industry practice, cause such revisions
(including the impact to proved reserves and future net revenues from estimated development costs incurred and the accretion of discount since such year end), and decreased by, as of the date of determination, the estimated discounted future net
revenues from 
 (C) estimated proved oil and gas reserves produced or disposed of since such year end, and 

(D) estimated oil and gas reserves attributable to downward revisions of estimates of proved oil and gas reserves since such
year end due to changes in geological conditions or other factors which would, in accordance with standard industry practice, cause such revisions, in each case calculated on a pre-tax basis and in accordance with Commission guidelines, 

  
 2 

 in the case of clauses (A) through (D) utilizing prices and costs calculated in accordance with
Commission guidelines as of such year end; provided, however, that in the case of each of the determinations made pursuant to clauses (A) through (D), such increases and decreases shall be as estimated by the Company’s petroleum
engineers; 
 (2) the capitalized costs that are attributable to Oil and Gas Properties of the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries to which no proved oil and gas reserves are attributable, based on the Company’s books and records as of a date no earlier than the date of the Company’s latest available annual or quarterly financial statements; 

(3) the Net Working Capital of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries on a date no earlier than the date of the
Company’s latest annual or quarterly financial statements; and

the date of the Company’s latest annual or quarterly financial statements, and

by independent appraisers, of other tangible assets of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, as of a date no earlier than the date of the Company’s latest audited financial statements; provided, that, if no such appraisal has been
performed the Company shall not be required to obtain such an appraisal and only clause (4)(A) of this definition shall apply; 
 minus

 (b) the sum of: 

(1) Minority Interests; 

(2) any net gas balancing liabilities of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries reflected in the Company’s latest
annual or quarterly balance sheet (to the extent not deducted in calculating Net Working Capital of the Company in accordance with clause (a)(3) above of this definition); 

(3) to the extent included in (a)(1) above, the discounted future net revenues, calculated in accordance with Commission
guidelines (utilizing prices and costs calculated in accordance with Commission guidelines as of such year end), attributable to reserves which are required to be delivered to third parties to fully satisfy the obligations of the Company and its
Restricted Subsidiaries with respect to Volumetric Production Payments (determined, if applicable, using the schedules specified with respect thereto); and 

  
 3 

 (4) to the extent included in (a)(1) above, the discounted future net revenues,
calculated in accordance with Commission guidelines, attributable to reserves subject to Dollar-Denominated Production Payments which, based on the estimates of production and price assumptions included in determining the discounted future net
revenues specified in (a)(1) above, would be necessary to fully satisfy the payment obligations of the Company and its Subsidiaries with respect to such Dollar-Denominated Production Payments (determined, if applicable, using the schedules specified
with respect thereto). 
 If the Company changes its method of accounting from the successful efforts method of accounting to the full cost or a similar
method, “Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets” will continue to be calculated as if the Company were still using the successful efforts method of accounting.

forth in the table in Section 3.07(a) of this Indenture), plus (ii) all required interest payments (excluding accrued and unpaid interest to such redemption date) due on such Note through March 15, 2016, computed using a
discount rate equal to the Treasury Rate as of such redemption date plus 50 basis points; over 
 (b) the principal amount of
such Note. 
 “Applicable Procedures” means, with respect to any transfer or exchange of or for beneficial interests in any
Global Note, the rules and procedures of the Depositary, Euroclear and Clearstream that apply to such transfer or exchange. 

  
 4 

 “Asset Disposition” means any direct or indirect sale, lease (including by means
of Production Payments and Reserve Sales and a Sale/Leaseback Transaction) (other than an operating lease entered into in the ordinary course of the Oil and Gas Business), transfer, issuance or other disposition, or a series of related sales,

reserves are attributable at the time of such disposition; and provided further that the disposition is for not less than the Fair Market Value of such Oil and Gas properties, as determined in good faith by the Company. 

“Asset Swap” means any substantially contemporaneous (and in any event occurring within 180 days of each other) purchase and
sale or exchange of any oil or natural gas properties or assets or interests therein between the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and another Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary); provided, that any cash received must
be applied in accordance with Section 4.13 as if the Asset Swap were an Asset Disposition.

Consolidated EBITDAX of such Person for the period of the most recent four consecutive fiscal quarters ending prior to the date of such determination for which financial statements are in existence to (y) Consolidated Interest Expense for such
four fiscal quarters, provided, however, that: 
 (1) if the transaction giving rise to the need to calculate the Consolidated
Coverage Ratio is an Incurrence of Indebtedness, Consolidated EBITDAX and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period will be calculated after giving effect on a pro forma basis to such Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof as if such
Indebtedness had been Incurred on the first day of such period and such proceeds had been applied as of such date; 
 (2) if
the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary has Incurred, repaid, repurchased, defeased or otherwise discharged any Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness described in clause (1) above) since the beginning of the period, Consolidated EBITDAX and
Consolidated Interest Expense for such period will be calculated after giving effect on a pro forma basis to such Incurrence, repayment, repurchase, defeasement or other discharge of Indebtedness as if such Incurrence, repayment, repurchase,
defeasement or other discharge had occurred on the first day of such period (except that, in making such computation, the amount of Indebtedness under any revolving Credit Facility shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such
Indebtedness during such period); 
 (3) if, since the beginning of such period, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary has
made any Asset Disposition or if the transaction giving rise to the need to calculate the Consolidated Coverage Ratio is such an Asset Disposition, the Consolidated EBITDAX for such period will be reduced by an amount equal to the Consolidated
EBITDAX (if positive) directly attributable to the assets which are the subject of such Asset Disposition for such period or increased by an amount equal to the Consolidated EBITDAX (if negative) directly attributable thereto for such period and

 10 

 
Company or a Restricted Subsidiary) or an acquisition (or will have received a contribution) of assets, including any acquisition or contribution of assets occurring in connection with a
transaction causing a calculation to be made under this Indenture, which constitutes all or substantially all of a company, division, operating unit, segment, business, group of related assets or line of business, Consolidated EBITDAX and
Consolidated Interest Expense for such period will be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto (including the Incurrence of any Indebtedness) as if such Investment or acquisition or contribution had occurred on the first day of such period;
and 
 (5) if, since the beginning of such period, any Person (that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged
with or into the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary since the beginning of such period) made any Asset Disposition or any Investment or acquisition of assets that would have required an adjustment pursuant to clause (3) or (4) above if
made by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary during such period, Consolidated EBITDAX and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period will be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Asset Disposition or Investment or
acquisition of assets had occurred on the first day of such period. 
 For purposes of this definition, whenever pro forma effect is to be
given to any calculation under this definition, the pro forma calculations will be determined in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Company; provided that such officer may in his or her discretion include any
reasonably identifiable and factually supportable pro forma changes to Consolidated EBITDAX, including any pro forma expenses and cost reductions, that have occurred or in the judgment of such officer are reasonably expected to occur within 12
months of the date of the applicable transaction (regardless of whether such expense or cost reduction or any other operating improvements could then be reflected properly in pro forma financial statements prepared in accordance with Regulation S-X
under the Securities Act or any other regulation or policy of the Commission). If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest expense on such Indebtedness will be calculated as if the average
rate in effect from the beginning of such period to the date of determination had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any Interest Rate Agreement applicable to such Indebtedness, but if the remaining term of such
Interest Rate Agreement is less than 12 months, then such Interest Rate Agreement shall only be taken into account for that portion of the period equal to the remaining term thereof). If any Indebtedness that is being given pro forma effect bears an
interest rate at the option of the Company, the interest rate shall be calculated by applying such optional rate chosen by the Company. Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or
similar rate, a eurocurrency interbank offered rate, or other rate, shall be deemed to have been based upon the rate actually chosen, or, if none, then based upon such optional rate chosen as the Company may designate.

(3) consolidated depletion and depreciation expense of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries; 

(4) consolidated amortization expense or asset impairment charges of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries; 

(5) other non-cash charges of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries (excluding any such non-cash charge to the extent it represents an

(6) consolidated exploration and abandonment expense of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, 

if applicable for such period; and less, to the extent included in calculating such Consolidated Net Income and in excess of any costs or

subject to Volumetric Production Payments, (y) amounts recorded in accordance with GAAP as repayments of principal and interest pursuant to Dollar-Denominated Production Payments and (z) other non-cash gains (excluding any non-cash gain to

Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, clauses (1) through (6) relating to amounts of a Restricted Subsidiary of the referent
Person will be added to Consolidated Net Income to compute Consolidated EBITDAX of such Person only in the same proportion that the Net Income of such Restricted Subsidiary was included in calculating the Consolidated Net Income of such Person.

Consolidated Net Income); 
 (4) commissions, discounts and other fees and charges owed with respect to letters of credit and

if Interest Rate Agreements result in net cash benefits rather than costs, such benefits shall be credited to reduce Consolidated Interest Expense unless, pursuant to GAAP, such net benefits are otherwise reflected in Consolidated Net Income; 

(7) the consolidated interest expense of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries that was capitalized during such period;
and 
 (8) all dividends paid or payable in cash, Cash Equivalents or Indebtedness or accrued during such period on any
series of Disqualified Stock of the Company or on Preferred Stock of its Restricted Subsidiaries payable to a party other than the Company or a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary, 

minus, to the extent included above, any interest attributable to Dollar-Denominated Production Payments; provided, for the purposes of calculating
Consolidated Interest Expense, no effect shall be given to the discount and/or premium resulting from the bifurcation of derivatives under FASB ASC 815 and related interpretations as a result of the terms of Indebtedness to which such Consolidated
Interest Expense relates. 
 For the purpose of calculating the Consolidated Coverage Ratio in connection with the Incurrence of any
Indebtedness described in clause (d) of the definition of “Indebtedness,” the calculation of Consolidated Interest Expense shall include all interest expense (including any amounts described in clauses (1) through (8) above)

“Consolidated Net Income” means, for any period, the aggregate net income (loss) of the Company and its consolidated

(2) No service charge shall be made to a holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Note or to a Holder of a Definitive Note
for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or other governmental taxes and fees payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes or similar
governmental charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 2.11, 3.06, 4.13, 4.17 and 9.05). 
 (3) The
Registrar shall not be required to register the transfer of or exchange any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part. 

(4) All Global Notes and Definitive Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Global Notes or Definitive
Notes shall be the valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Global Notes or Definitive Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or
exchange. 
 (5) The Company shall not be required (A) to issue, to register the transfer of or to exchange any Notes
during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of any selection of Notes for redemption under Section 3.02 and ending at the close of business on the day of selection, (B) to register the transfer of or to

(a) If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or the Company and the Trustee receives evidence to their satisfaction of the
destruction, loss or theft of any Note, the Company shall issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements are met. If required by the Trustee or the

  
 59 

 
Company, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Company to protect the Company, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating
agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Company or the Trustee may charge for their expenses in replacing a Note. If, after the delivery of such replacement Note, a protected purchaser of the original Note in lieu
of which such replacement Note was issued presents for payment or registration such original Note, the Trustee shall be entitled to recover such replacement Note from the Person to whom it was delivered or any Person taking therefrom, except a
protected purchaser, and shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by the Company, the Trustee and any Agent in connection therewith.

accrue.

interest.

In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by
the Company, or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company, shall be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the
Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes that the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded.

Section 14.14. CUSIP Numbers. 
 The
Company in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP” or “ISIN” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use such numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided, that any such notice
may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the

Notice to Trustee. 
 If the Company elects to redeem Notes pursuant to the optional redemption provisions of Section 3.07, it
shall furnish to the Trustee, at least 10 days (unless the Trustee consents to a shorter period) before giving a notice of redemption pursuant to Section 3.03, an Officers’ Certificate setting forth (i) the clause of this Indenture
pursuant to which the redemption shall occur, (ii) the redemption date, (iii) the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed and (iv) the redemption price, if then determined and otherwise the method of its determination. 

Section 15.02. Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed. 

(a) If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be redeemed among the Holders of the
Notes in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes are listed or, if the Notes 

  
 62 

 
are not so listed, then on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee in its sole discretion will deem to be fair and appropriate (or, in the case of Global Notes, the
Trustee will select Notes for redemption based on the Depository’s method that most nearly approximates a pro rata selection). 
 (b)
The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Notes selected for redemption and, in the case of any Note selected for partial redemption, the principal amount at maturity thereof to be redeemed. No Notes in amounts of $2,000 or
less shall be redeemed in part. The Trustee may select for redemption portions of the principal of Notes that have denominations larger than $2,000. Notes and portions of Notes selected shall be in amounts of $2,000 or whole multiples of $1,000 in
excess thereof; except that if all of the Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed, the entire outstanding amount of Notes held by such Holder, even if not a multiple of $1,000, shall be redeemed. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions
of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption. 
 Section 15.03. Notice of
Redemption. 
 (a) At least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, the Company shall mail or cause to be mailed, by
first class mail, a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address and send a copy to the Trustee at the same time. 

The notice shall identify the Notes (including CUSIP or ISIN number(s)) to be redeemed and shall state: 

(1) the redemption date; 

(2) the redemption price, if then determined and otherwise the method of its determination; 

(3) if any Note is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Note to be redeemed and that, after the
redemption date upon surrender of such Note, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the original Note shall be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Note; 

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

(5) that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price and become due on
the date fixed for redemption; 
 (6) that, unless the Company defaults in making such redemption payment, interest, if any,
on Notes called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date; 
 (7) the paragraph of the Notes and/or
section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed; and 

  
 63 

 (8) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP
or ISIN number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes. 
 (b) At the Company’s request, the Trustee shall give the
notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at its expense; provided, however, that the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee, as provided in Section 3.01, an Officers’ Certificate requesting that the Trustee
give such notice and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in the preceding paragraph. The notice, if mailed in the manner provided herein shall be presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such
notice. 
 Section 15.04. Effect of Notice of Redemption.

(a) Prior to 1:00 p.m. New York Time on the Business Day that is the redemption date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with the
Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on all Notes to be redeemed on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall promptly return to the Company any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent
by the Company in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption price of, and accrued interest on, all Notes to be redeemed. 
 (b)
If the Company complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on and after the redemption date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption. If a Note is redeemed on or after an interest
record date but on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, then any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Holder in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such record date. If any Note called for redemption
shall not be so paid upon surrender for redemption because of the failure of the Company to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption date until such principal is paid, and to the extent
lawful on any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01. 
 Section 15.06.
Notes Redeemed in Part. 
 Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed in part, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall
authenticate for the Holder at the expense of the Company a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Note surrendered. No Notes in denominations of $2,000 or less shall be redeemed in part.

principal amount of the Notes issued on the Issue Date remains outstanding after each such redemption; and (2) the redemption occurs within 180 days after the closing of the related Equity Offering.

of the Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any)
and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee; but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

(a) The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, Incur any Indebtedness (including
Acquired Indebtedness) and the Company will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to issue Preferred Stock; provided, however, that the Company may Incur Indebtedness and any of the Subsidiary Guarantors may Incur Indebtedness and
issue Preferred Stock if on the date of such Incurrence or issuance: 
 (1) the Consolidated Coverage Ratio for the Company
and its Restricted Subsidiaries is at least 2.25 to 1.00, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of proceeds); and 

(2) no Default would occur as a consequence of, and no Event of Default would be continuing following, Incurring the
Indebtedness or the application of its proceeds. 
 (b) Section 4.09(a) will not prohibit the Incurrence of the following Indebtedness:

 (1) Indebtedness under one or more Credit Facilities of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary Incurred pursuant to this
clause (1) in an aggregate amount not to exceed the greater of (i) $335.0 million or (ii) the sum of $225.0 million and 30.0% of the Company’s Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets determined as of the date of the Incurrence
of such Indebtedness after giving effect to the application of the proceeds therefrom; 
 (2) Guarantees Incurred by the
Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor of Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor Incurred in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture; provided that in the event such Indebtedness that is being Guaranteed is a
Subordinated Obligation or a Guarantor Subordinated Obligation, then the related Guarantee shall be subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantee to at least the same extent as the Indebtedness being Guaranteed, as the
case may be; 
 (3) Indebtedness of the Company owing to and held by any Restricted Subsidiary or Indebtedness of a
Restricted Subsidiary owing to and held by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that (a)(i) if the Company is the obligor on such Indebtedness and the obligee is not a Subsidiary Guarantor, such Indebtedness

  
 69 

 
must be expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all obligations with respect to the Notes and (ii) if a Subsidiary Guarantor is the obligor of such Indebtedness and
the obligee is neither the Company nor a Subsidiary Guarantor, such Indebtedness must be expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor with respect to its Subsidiary Guarantee and (b)(i)
any subsequent issuance or transfer of Capital Stock or any other event which results in any such Indebtedness being held by a Person other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company and (ii) any sale or other transfer of any
such Indebtedness to a Person other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company shall be deemed, in each case, to constitute an Incurrence of such Indebtedness by the Company or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, that was not
permitted by this clause; 
 (4) Indebtedness represented by (a) the Notes issued on the Issue Date and all Subsidiary
Guarantees, (b) any Indebtedness (other than the Indebtedness described in clauses (1), (2), (3), (6) or (7)) outstanding on the Issue Date, (c) any Exchange Notes issued in exchange for other Notes pursuant to a Registration
Rights Agreement and (d) any Refinancing Indebtedness Incurred in respect of any Indebtedness described in this clause (4) or clause (5) or (7) or Incurred pursuant to Section 4.09(a); 

(5) Permitted Acquisition Indebtedness; 

(6) Indebtedness in respect of (a) self-insurance obligations, bid, appeal, reimbursement, performance, surety and similar
bonds and completion guarantees provided by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary in the ordinary course of business and any Guarantees or letters of credit functioning as or supporting any of the foregoing bonds or obligations and
(b) obligations represented by letters of credit for the account of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary in order to provide security for workers’ compensation claims (in the case of clauses (a) and (b) other than for an
obligation for money borrowed); 
 (7) Indebtedness represented by Capitalized Lease Obligations of the Company or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries (whether or not Incurred pursuant to sale and leaseback transactions), mortgage financings or purchase money obligations, Incurred in connection with the acquisition, construction, improvement or development of real or
personal, movable or immovable, property, in each case Incurred for the purpose of financing, refinancing, renewing, defeasing or refunding all or any part of the purchase price or cost of acquisition, construction, improvement or development of
property used in the business of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, provided that after giving effect to any such Incurrence, the aggregate principal amount of all Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to this clause (7), together with any
Refinancing Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to clause (4) in respect of such Indebtedness, and then outstanding does not exceed the greater of $25.0 million or 2.5% of the Company’s Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets, determined as
of the date of Incurrence of such Indebtedness after giving effect to such Incurrence and the application of the proceeds therefrom; and 

  
 70 

 
(8) in addition to the items referred to in clauses (1) through (7) above, Indebtedness of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in an aggregate outstanding principal amount
which, when taken together with the principal amount of all other Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to this clause (8) and then outstanding, will not exceed the greater of $30.0 million or 5.0% of the Company’s Adjusted Consolidated Net
Tangible Assets, determined as of the date of Incurrence of such Indebtedness after giving effect to such Incurrence and the application of the proceeds therefrom; provided that not more than $10.0 million of such Indebtedness may be
Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Subsidiary Guarantor. 
 (c) For purposes of determining compliance with, and the
outstanding principal amount of any particular Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to and in compliance with, this covenant: 

(1) in the event an item of that Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the types of Indebtedness described in
Section 4.09(a)-(b), the Company, in its sole discretion, will classify such item of Indebtedness on the date of Incurrence and, subject to clause (2) below, may later classify, reclassify or redivide all or a portion of such item of
Indebtedness, in any manner that complies with this covenant; 
 (2) all Indebtedness outstanding on the date of this
Indenture under the First Lien Credit Agreement, after giving effect to the initial offering and sale of Notes and the use of proceeds therefrom shall be deemed Incurred on the Issue Date under clause (1) of Section 4.09(b); 

(3) Guarantees Incurred by the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor of, or obligations Incurred by the Company or any Subsidiary
Guarantor in respect of letters of credit supporting, Indebtedness which is otherwise included in the determination of a particular amount of Indebtedness shall not be included; 

(4) if obligations in respect of letters of credit are Incurred pursuant to a Credit Facility and are being treated as Incurred
pursuant to clause (1) of Section 4.09(b) and the letters of credit relate to other Indebtedness, then such other Indebtedness shall not be included to the extent of the underlying letter of credit; 

(5) the principal amount of any Disqualified Stock of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, or Preferred Stock of a
Restricted Subsidiary, will be equal to the greater of the maximum mandatory redemption or repurchase price (not including, in either case, any redemption or repurchase premium) or the liquidation preference thereof; 

(6) Indebtedness permitted by this Section 4.09 need not be permitted solely by reference to one provision permitting such
Indebtedness but may be permitted in part by one such provision and in part by one or more other provisions of this Section 4.09 permitting such Indebtedness; and 

(7) the amount of Indebtedness issued at a price that is less than the principal amount thereof will be equal to the amount of
the liability in respect thereof determined in accordance with GAAP. 

  
 71 

 (d) Accrual of interest, accrual of dividends, the amortization of debt discount or the accretion
of accreted value, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness, the payment of dividends in the form of additional shares of Preferred Stock or Disqualified Stock and unrealized losses or charges in respect of Hedging Obligations
will not be deemed to be an Incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of this Section 4.09. 
 (e) The Company will not permit any of its
Unrestricted Subsidiaries to Incur any Indebtedness, or issue any shares of Disqualified Stock, other than Non-Recourse Debt. If at any time an Unrestricted Subsidiary becomes a Restricted Subsidiary, any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary shall be
deemed to be Incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary as of such date and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be Incurred as of such date under this Section 4.09, the Company shall be in Default of this Section 4.09. 

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

(g) Nothing contained in this Indenture is intended to treat (1) unsecured Indebtedness as subordinated or junior to secured Indebtedness
merely because it is unsecured or (2) senior Indebtedness as subordinated or junior to any other senior Indebtedness merely because it has a junior priority with respect to the same collateral. 

Section 16.10. Limitation on Restricted Payments. 

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

(1) pay any dividend or make any payment or distribution on or in respect of the Company’s or any Restricted Subsidiaries’ Capital
Stock (including any payment or distribution in connection with any merger or consolidation involving the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) except: 

  
 72 

 (A) dividends or distributions by the Company payable solely in Capital Stock of the Company
(other than Disqualified Stock but including options, warrants or other rights to purchase such Capital Stock of the Company); and 
 (B)
dividends or distributions payable to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary and if such Restricted Subsidiary is not a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary, to minority stockholders (or owners of an equivalent interest in the case of a Subsidiary that is an
entity other than a corporation) so long as the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary receives at least its pro rata share of such dividend or distribution; 

(2) purchase, repurchase, redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value any Capital Stock of the Company or any direct or indirect
parent of the Company held by Persons other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary (other than in exchange for Capital Stock of the Company (other than Disqualified Stock)); 

(3) purchase, repurchase, redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value, prior to scheduled maturity, scheduled repayment or
scheduled sinking fund payment, any Subordinated Obligations or Guarantor Subordinated Obligations (other than (x) Indebtedness permitted under clause (3) of Section 4.09(b) of this Indenture or (y) the purchase, repurchase,
redemption, defeasance or other acquisition or retirement of Subordinated Obligations or Guarantor Subordinated Obligations purchased in anticipation of satisfying a sinking fund obligation, principal installment or final maturity, in each case due
within one year of the date of purchase, repurchase, redemption, defeasance or other acquisition or retirement); 
 (4) purchase,
repurchase, redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value, prior to scheduled maturity, scheduled repayment or scheduled sinking fund payment, any Unsecured Debt (but excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any “make-whole”
payment in connection with such purchase, repurchase, redemption, defeasance, acquisition or retirement); or 
 (5) make any Restricted
Investment in any Person; 
 (any such dividend, distribution, purchase, redemption, repurchase, defeasance, other acquisition, retirement or Restricted
Investment referred to in clauses (1) through (5) shall be referred to herein as a “Restricted Payment”), if at the time the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary makes such Restricted Payment: 

(A) a Default shall have occurred and be continuing (or would result therefrom); 

(B) the Company is not able to Incur an additional $1.00 of Indebtedness pursuant to Section 4.09(a) of this Indenture after giving
effect, on a pro forma basis, to such Restricted Payment; or 
 (C) the aggregate amount of such Restricted Payment and all other
Restricted Payments declared or made subsequent to the Issue Date would exceed the sum of (the “Restricted Payments Basket”): 

  
 73 

 (i) 50% of Consolidated Net Income for the period (treated as one accounting
period) from April 1, 2015 to the end of the most recent fiscal quarter ending prior to the date of such Restricted Payment for which internal financial statements are in existence (or, in case such Consolidated Net Income is a deficit, minus
100% of such deficit); 
 (ii) 100% of the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds and the Fair Market Value of property or securities
other than cash (including Capital Stock of Persons engaged primarily in the Oil and Gas Business or assets used in the Oil and Gas Business), in each case received by the Company from the issue or sale of its Capital Stock (other than Disqualified
Stock) or other capital contributions subsequent to the Issue Date (other than Net Cash Proceeds received from an issuance or sale of such Capital Stock to (x) Persons indicated in clause 6(a) of Section 4.10(b) or any direct or indirect
parent of the Company, to the extent such Net Cash Proceeds have been used to make a Restricted Payment pursuant to clause (6)(a) of Section 4.10(b), (y) a Subsidiary of the Company or (z) an employee stock ownership plan, option
plan or similar trust (to the extent such sale to an employee stock ownership plan, option plan or similar trust is financed by loans from or Guaranteed by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary unless such loans have been repaid with cash on or
prior to the date of determination)); 
 (iii) the amount by which Indebtedness of the Company or its Restricted
Subsidiaries is reduced on the Company’s balance sheet upon the conversion or exchange (other than by a Subsidiary of the Company) subsequent to the Issue Date of any Indebtedness of the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries convertible or
exchangeable for Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Company (less the amount of any cash, or the Fair Market Value of any other property (other than such Capital Stock), distributed by the Company upon such conversion or exchange),
together with the net proceeds, if any, received by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries upon such conversion or exchange; and 

(iv) the amount equal to the aggregate net reduction in Restricted Investments made by the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries in any Person subsequent to the Issue Date resulting from: 
 (A) repurchases, repayments or redemptions of
such Restricted Investments by such Person, proceeds realized upon the sale of such Restricted Investment (other than to a Subsidiary of the Company), repayments of loans or advances or other transfers of assets (including by way of dividend or
distribution) by such Person to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary; 

  
 74 

 (B) the redesignation of Unrestricted Subsidiaries as Restricted Subsidiaries
(valued in each case as provided in the definition of “Investment”) not to exceed, in the case of any Unrestricted Subsidiary, the amount of Investments previously made by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in such Unrestricted
Subsidiary, which amount in each case under this clause (iv) was included in the calculation of the amount of Restricted Payments; provided, however, that no amount will be included under this clause (iv) to the extent it is
already included in Consolidated Net Income; and 
 (C) the sale by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than to
the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary) of all or a portion of the Capital Stock of an Unrestricted Subsidiary or a distribution from an Unrestricted Subsidiary or a dividend from an Unrestricted Subsidiary (whether any such distribution or dividend
is made with proceeds from the issuance by such Unrestricted Subsidiary of its Capital Stock or otherwise). 
 (b) Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Section 4.10(a) shall not prohibit the following actions: 
 (1) any Restricted Payment made by exchange for,
or out of the proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale of, Capital Stock of the Company (other than Disqualified Stock and other than Capital Stock issued or sold to a Subsidiary of the Company or an employee stock ownership plan or similar
trust to the extent such sale to an employee stock ownership plan or similar trust is financed by loans from or Guaranteed by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary unless such loans have been repaid with cash on or prior to the date of
determination) or a substantially concurrent cash capital contribution received by the Company from its shareholders; provided, however, that (a) such Restricted Payment will be excluded from subsequent calculations of the amount
of Restricted Payments and (b) the Net Cash Proceeds from such sale of Capital Stock or capital contribution will be excluded from clause (C)(ii) of Section 4.10(a); 

(2) any purchase, repurchase, redemption, defeasance or other acquisition or retirement of Subordinated Obligations of the
Company or Guarantor Subordinated Obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor made by exchange for, or out of the proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale of, Refinancing Indebtedness or any purchase, repurchase, redemption, defeasance or other
acquisition or retirement of Guarantor Subordinated Obligations made by exchange for or out of the proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale of Refinancing Indebtedness that, in each case, is permitted to be Incurred pursuant to
Section 4.09 of this Indenture; provided, however, that such purchase, repurchase, redemption, defeasance, acquisition or retirement will be excluded from subsequent calculations of the amount of Restricted Payments; 

(3) any purchase, repurchase, redemption, defeasance or other acquisition or retirement of Unsecured Debt of the Company or a
Restricted Subsidiary made by 

  
 75 

 
exchange for, or out of the proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale of, Unsecured Debt constituting Refinancing Indebtedness of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary or constituting
Pari Passu Indebtedness or Junior Lien Indebtedness, as the case may be, that, in each case, is permitted to be Incurred pursuant to Section 4.09 of this Indenture; provided, however, that such purchase, repurchase, redemption, defeasance,
acquisition or retirement will be excluded from subsequent calculations of the amount of Restricted Payments; 
 (4) any
purchase, repurchase, redemption, defeasance or other acquisition or retirement of Disqualified Stock of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary made by exchange for, or out of the proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale of, Disqualified Stock
of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, that, in each case, is permitted to be Incurred pursuant to Section 4.09 of this Indenture; provided, however, that such purchase, repurchase, redemption, defeasance,
acquisition or retirement will be excluded from subsequent calculations of the amount of Restricted Payments; 
 (5)
dividends paid or distributions made within 60 days after the date of declaration if at such date of declaration such dividend or distribution would have complied with this covenant if it had been made on such date; provided, however,
that such dividends and distributions will be included in subsequent calculations of the amount of Restricted Payments; and provided further, however, that for purposes of clarification, this clause (5) shall not include cash payments in
lieu of the issuance of fractional shares included in clause (10) below; 
 (6) so long as no Default has occurred and
is continuing, (a) the repurchase or other acquisition of Capital Stock (including options, warrants, equity appreciation rights or other rights to purchase or acquire Capital Stock) of the Company held by any existing or former employees,

agreements or other agreements to compensate officers, employees or directors, in each case approved by the Company’s Board of Directors; provided that such repurchases or other acquisitions pursuant to this subclause (a) during any
calendar year will not exceed $2.5 million in the aggregate (with unused amounts in any calendar year being carried over to succeeding calendar years subject to a maximum of $5.0 million in any calendar year); provided further, that such
amount in any calendar year may be increased by an amount not to exceed

Restricted Subsidiary in an amount paid (whether in cash, securities or otherwise) not to exceed $25.0 million in the aggregate. 
 (c) The
amount of all Restricted Payments (other than cash) shall be the Fair Market Value on the date of such Restricted Payment of the asset(s) or securities proposed to be paid, transferred or issued by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the
case may be, pursuant to such Restricted Payment. The Fair Market Value of any cash Restricted Payment shall be its face amount and the Fair Market Value of any non-cash Restricted Payment shall be determined in accordance with the definition of
that term. 
 (d) In the event that a Restricted Payment meets the criteria of more than one of the exceptions described in clauses
(1) through (15) of Section 4.10(b) above or is entitled to be made pursuant to Section 4.10(a), the Company shall, in its sole discretion, subdivide and classify, and may later reclassify, such Restricted Payment in any manner
that complies with this Section 4.10. 
 (e) For purposes of designating any Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, all
outstanding Investments by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries (except to the extent repaid) in the Subsidiary so designated will be deemed to be Restricted Payments in 

  
 78 

 
an amount determined as set forth in the last sentence of the definition of “Investment.” Such designation will be permitted only if a Restricted Payment in such amount would be
permitted at such time, whether pursuant to Section 4.10(a) or under clause (14) of Section 4.10(b), or pursuant to the definition of “Permitted Investments,” and if such Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an
Unrestricted Subsidiary. 
 (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary shall directly purchase,
repurchase, redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value, prior to scheduled maturity, scheduled repayment or scheduled sinking fund payment, any Junior Lien Indebtedness, Unsecured Debt or Capital Stock (but excluding in each case, for
the avoidance of doubt, any “make-whole” payment in connection with such purchase, repurchase, redemption, defeasance, acquisition or retirement) with the proceeds of any borrowing under the First Lien Credit Agreement. 

Section 16.11. Limitation on Liens. The Company will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, create, Incur
or suffer to exist any Lien other than Permitted Liens upon any of its property or assets (including Capital Stock of Restricted Subsidiaries), which Lien secures Indebtedness. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, (1) the Company will
not Incur or permit its Restricted Subsidiaries to Incur any Indebtedness under the First Lien Credit Agreement or other Indebtedness secured by Prior Liens under any Credit Facility if, after giving effect to such Incurrence and the application of
the net proceeds therefrom, the aggregate outstanding amount or, in the case of letters of credit, the amount available to be drawn thereunder, of all Indebtedness under the First Lien Credit Agreement constituting principal and undrawn letters of
credit and all other Indebtedness constituting principal and undrawn letters of credit secured by Prior Liens under any Credit Facility (in each case, excluding any Hedging Obligations and obligations in respect of treasury management services)
would exceed the greater of (a) $150.0 million and (b) the Borrowing Base in effect at the time the Indebtedness secured by such Lien is Incurred; provided that no effect shall be given to any redetermination of the Borrowing Base
prior to April 1, 2016, (2) the Company will not Incur or permit its Restricted Subsidiaries to Incur any Pari Passu Indebtedness other than (x) the Notes, (y) any Indebtedness Incurred to refinance the Notes and (z) other
Pari Passu Indebtedness in an amount not to exceed $75.0 million (such Pari Passu Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to this clause (z), “Additional Pari Passu Indebtedness”) at any one time outstanding and (3) the Company will not
Incur or permit its Restricted Subsidiaries to Incur any Junior Lien Indebtedness other than Junior Lien Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $50.0 million at any one time outstanding. 

Section 16.12. Limitation on Restrictions on Distributions from Restricted Subsidiaries. 

(a) The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, create or otherwise cause or permit to exist or become effective
any consensual encumbrance or consensual restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to: 
 (1) pay dividends or
make any other distributions on its Capital Stock or pay any Indebtedness or other obligations owed to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary; 

  
 79 

 (2) make any loans or advances to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (it
being understood that the subordination of loans or advances made to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary to other Indebtedness Incurred by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make loans
or advances); or 
 (3) sell, lease or transfer any of its property or assets to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary.

 (b) However, paragraph (a) of this Section 4.12 will not prohibit: 

(1) any encumbrance or restriction pursuant to or by reason of an agreement in effect at or entered into on the Issue Date,
including, without limitation, this Indenture and the Security Documents as in effect on such date; 
 (2) any encumbrance or
restriction with respect to a Person pursuant to or by reason of an agreement relating to any Capital Stock or Indebtedness Incurred by a Person on or before the date on which such Person was acquired by the Company or another Restricted Subsidiary
(other than Capital Stock or Indebtedness Incurred as consideration in, or to provide all or any portion of the funds utilized to consummate, the transaction or series of related transactions pursuant to which such Person was acquired by the Company
or a Restricted Subsidiary or in contemplation of the transaction) and outstanding on such date; provided, that any such encumbrance or restriction shall not extend to any assets or property of the Company or any other Restricted Subsidiary
other than the assets and property so acquired; 
 (3) encumbrances and restrictions contained in contracts entered into in
the ordinary course of business, not relating to any Indebtedness, and that do not, individually or in the aggregate, detract from the value of, or from the ability of the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries to realize the value of, property or
assets of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in any manner material to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary; 
 (4)
any encumbrance or restriction with respect to an Unrestricted Subsidiary pursuant to or by reason of an agreement that the Unrestricted Subsidiary is a party to entered into before the date on which such Unrestricted Subsidiary became a Restricted
Subsidiary; provided, that such agreement was not entered into in anticipation of the Unrestricted Subsidiary becoming a Restricted Subsidiary and any such encumbrance or restriction shall not extend to any assets or property of the Company
or any other Restricted Subsidiary other than the assets and property of such Unrestricted Subsidiary; 
 (5) with respect to
any Restricted Subsidiary incorporated or organized outside the United States, any encumbrance or restriction contained in the terms of any Indebtedness or any agreement pursuant to which such Indebtedness was Incurred if either (a) the
encumbrance or restriction applies only in the event of a payment default or a default with respect to a financial covenant in such Indebtedness or agreement or (b) the Company determines that any such encumbrance or restriction will not
materially affect 

  
 80 

 
the Company’s ability to make principal or interest payments on the Notes, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company, whose determination shall be conclusive; 

(6) any encumbrance or restriction with respect to a Restricted Subsidiary pursuant to an agreement effecting a refunding,

with respect to such Restricted Subsidiary contained in any such agreement taken as a whole are no less favorable in any material respect to the Holders of the Notes than the encumbrances and restrictions contained in the agreements governing the
Indebtedness being refunded, replaced or refinanced; 
 (7) in the case of clause (3) of Section 4.12(a) above, any
encumbrance or restriction: 
 (A) that restricts in a customary manner the subletting, assignment or transfer of any

thereon in accordance with the terms thereof; provided, that issuance of such Preferred Stock is permitted pursuant to Section 4.09 and the terms of such Preferred Stock do not expressly restrict the ability of a Restricted Subsidiary to

 Section 16.13. Limitation on Sales of Assets and Subsidiary Stock. 

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

(1) the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at the time of such Asset Disposition
at least equal to the Fair Market Value (such Fair Market Value to be determined on the date of contractually agreeing to such Asset Disposition) of the shares or other assets subject to such Asset Disposition; and 

(2) at least 75% of the aggregate consideration received by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, from
such Asset Disposition and all other Asset Dispositions since the Issue Date, on a cumulative basis, is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents or Additional Assets, or any combination thereof. 

(b) The Net Available Cash from such Asset Disposition may be applied, within 365 days from the later of the date of such Asset Disposition or
the receipt of such Net Available Cash, by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be: 
 (1) to prepay,
repay, redeem or purchase Indebtedness of the Company (including the Notes) or a Subsidiary Guarantor (other than Subordinated Obligations, Guarantor Subordinated Obligations or Disqualified Stock) or any Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary that
is not a Subsidiary Guarantor (in each case, excluding Indebtedness owed to the Company or an Affiliate of the Company); provided, however, that, in connection with any prepayment, repayment, redemption or purchase of Indebtedness
pursuant to this clause (b), the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary will retire such Indebtedness and will cause the related commitment (if any) to be permanently reduced in an amount equal to the principal amount so prepaid, repaid, redeemed or
purchased; or 
 (2) to make capital expenditures in the Oil and Gas Business or to invest in or acquire Additional Assets;

 provided, that (i) pending the final application of any such Net Available Cash in accordance with clause (a) or clause (b) of this
Section 4.13, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries may temporarily reduce Indebtedness or otherwise invest such Net Available Cash in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture and (ii) Net Available Cash from an Asset Disposition
consummated prior to the second anniversary of the Issue Date may not be applied to repurchase, redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value, prior to scheduled maturity, scheduled repayment or scheduled sinking fund payment, any
Unsecured Debt. 
 (c) Any Net Available Cash from Asset Dispositions that is not applied or invested as provided in Section 4.13(b)
will be deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds.” Not later than the 366th day from the later of the date of such Asset Disposition or the receipt of such Net Available Cash, if the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $25.0
million, the Company will be required to make an offer (“Asset Disposition Offer”) to all Holders of Notes and, to the extent required by the terms of other Pari Passu Indebtedness or Indebtedness secured by Prior Liens
(collectively, “Subject Debt”), to all holders of Subject Debt outstanding with similar 

  
 83 

 
provisions requiring the Company to make an offer to purchase such Subject Debt with the proceeds from any Asset Disposition to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes and any such Subject
Debt to which the Asset Disposition Offer applies that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds, at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount (or, in the event such Subject Debt was issued with significant original
issue discount, 100% of the accreted value thereof) of the Notes and Subject Debt plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any (or in respect of such Subject Debt, such lesser price, if any, as may be provided for by the terms of such Indebtedness), to
the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date), in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture or the agreements governing the
Subject Debt, as applicable, in each case in minimum principal amount of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess of $2,000. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes surrendered by Holders thereof and other Subject Debt surrendered by
Holders or lenders, collectively, exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of tendered Notes and Subject Debt. To the extent that the
aggregate principal amount of Notes and Subject Debt so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to an Asset Disposition Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Company may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for general corporate
purposes, subject to Articles Four and Five of this Indenture. Upon completion of such Asset Disposition Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero. 

(d) The Asset Disposition Offer will remain open for a period of 20 Business Days following its commencement, except to the extent that a
longer period is required by applicable law (the “Asset Disposition Offer Period”). No later than five Business Days after the termination of the Asset Disposition Offer Period (the “Asset Disposition Purchase
Date”), the Company will purchase the principal amount of Notes and Subject Debt required to be purchased pursuant to this Section 4.13 (the “Asset Disposition Offer Amount”) or, if less than the Asset Disposition
Offer Amount has been so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, all Notes and Subject Debt validly tendered and not properly withdrawn in response to the Asset Disposition Offer. 

(e) If the Asset Disposition Purchase Date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any
accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no further interest will be payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Disposition
Offer. 
 (f) On or before the Asset Disposition Purchase Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a pro rata
basis to the extent necessary, the Asset Disposition Offer Amount of Notes and Subject Debt or portions of Notes and Subject Debt so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Asset Disposition Offer, or if less than the Asset
Disposition Offer Amount has been validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, all Notes and Subject Debt so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, in each case in minimum principal amount of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess
of $2,000. The Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Company in accordance with the terms of this Section 4.13 and, in addition, the
Company will deliver all certificates and notes required, if any, by the 

  
 84 

 
agreements governing the Subject Debt. The Company or the paying agent, as the case may be, will promptly (but in any case not later than five Business Days after the termination of the Asset
Disposition Offer Period) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder of Notes or holder or lender of Subject Debt, as the case may be, an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes or Subject Debt so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn by
such holder or lender, as the case may be, and accepted by the Company for purchase, and the Company will promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee, upon delivery of an Officers’ Certificate from the Company, will authenticate and mail or
deliver such new Note to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered; provided, that each such new Note will be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in
excess of $2,000. In addition, the Company will take any and all other actions required by the agreements governing the Subject Debt. Any Note not so accepted will be promptly mailed or delivered by the Company to the Holder thereof. The Company
will publicly announce the results of the Asset Disposition Offer on the Asset Disposition Purchase Date. 
 (g) The Company will comply, to
the extent applicable, with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to an Asset Disposition Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any
securities laws or regulations conflict with provisions of this Section 4.13, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Indenture by virtue of
its compliance with such securities laws or regulations. 
 (h) For the purposes of clause (2) of Section 4.13(a) above, the
following will be deemed to be cash: 
 (1) the assumption by the transferee of Indebtedness (other than Subordinated
Obligations or Disqualified Stock) of the Company or Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary (other than Guarantor Subordinated Obligations or Disqualified Stock of any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Subsidiary Guarantor) and the release of the
Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from all liability on such Indebtedness in connection with such Asset Disposition (in which case the Company will, without further action, be deemed to have applied such deemed cash to Indebtedness in accordance
with Section 4.13(b)(1)); and 
 (2) securities, notes or other obligations received by the Company or any Restricted
Subsidiary from the transferee that are converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash within 180 days after receipt thereof. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the 75% limitation referred to in clause (2) of Section 4.13(a) above shall be deemed satisfied with respect to any
Asset Disposition in which the cash or Cash Equivalents portion of the consideration received therefrom, determined in accordance with the foregoing provision on an after-tax basis, is equal to or greater than what the after-tax proceeds would have
been had such Asset Disposition complied with the aforementioned 75% limitation. 
 (i) The requirement of clause (2) of
Section 4.13(b) above shall be deemed to be satisfied if an agreement (including a lease, whether a capital lease or an operating lease) 

  
 85 

 
committing to make the acquisitions or expenditures referred to therein is entered into by the Company or its Restricted Subsidiary within the specified time period and such Net Available Cash is
subsequently applied in accordance with such agreement within six months following such agreement. 
 Section 16.14. Limitation on Affiliate
Transactions. 
 (a) The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, enter into,
make, amend or conduct any transaction (including making a payment to, the purchase, sale, lease or exchange of any property or the rendering of any service), contract, agreement or understanding with or for the benefit of any Affiliate of the
Company (an “Affiliate Transaction”) unless: 
 (1) the terms of such Affiliate Transaction are not
materially less favorable to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those that could reasonably be expected to be obtained in a comparable transaction at the time of such transaction in arm’s-length dealings with a
Person who is not such an Affiliate; and 
 (2) either: (a) if such Affiliate Transaction involves an aggregate
consideration in excess of $10.0 million but not greater than $30.0 million, the Company delivers to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction satisfies the criteria in clause (1) above, or (b) if
such Affiliate Transaction involves an aggregate consideration in excess of $30.0 million, the Company delivers to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction satisfies the criteria in clause (1) above
and that the terms of such transaction have been approved by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the Company having no personal pecuniary interest in such transaction. 

(b) Section 4.14(a) shall not apply to and does not prohibit: 

(1) any Restricted Payment permitted to be made pursuant to Section 4.10 or any Permitted Investment; 

(2) any payments, awards or grants in cash, Capital Stock or other property pursuant to, or the funding of, employment or
severance agreements and other compensation arrangements, options to purchase Capital Stock of the Company, restricted stock plans, long-term incentive plans, stock appreciation rights plans, participation plans or similar employee benefits plans
and/or insurance and indemnification arrangements provided to or for the benefit of directors and employees approved by the Board of Directors of the Company; 

(3) loans or advances to employees, officers or directors in the ordinary course of business of the Company or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries in an aggregate outstanding principal amount not to exceed $5.0 million; 
 (4) advances to or
reimbursements of employees for moving, entertainment and travel expenses, drawing accounts and similar expenditures in the ordinary course of business of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; 

  
 86 

 (5) any transaction to the extent between the Company and a Restricted Subsidiary
or between Restricted Subsidiaries, and Guarantees issued by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary for the benefit of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, in accordance with the Indenture; 

(6) transactions with a Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary) that is an Affiliate of the Company solely because the
Company owns, directly or through a Restricted Subsidiary, an Equity Interest in such Person; 
 (7) the issuance or sale of
any Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Company to, or the receipt by the Company of any capital contribution from its shareholders; 

(8) indemnities of officers, directors and employees of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries permitted by bylaw or
statutory provisions and any employment agreement or other employee compensation plan or arrangement entered into in the ordinary course of business by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; 

(9) the payment of reasonable compensation and fees paid to, and indemnity provided on behalf of, officers or directors of the
Company or any Restricted Subsidiary; 
 (10) the performance of obligations of the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries under the terms of any agreement to which the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is a party as of or on the Issue Date, as these agreements may be amended, modified, supplemented, extended or renewed from time to time;
provided, however, that any future amendment, modification, supplement, extension or renewal entered into after the Issue Date will be permitted only to the extent that its terms are not materially more disadvantageous, taken as a
whole, to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries than the terms of the agreements in effect on the Issue Date; 
 (11)
transactions with customers, clients, suppliers, or purchasers or sellers of goods or services, in each case in the ordinary course of business and otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture, provided that in the reasonable
determination of the Board of Directors of the Company or the senior management of the Company, such transactions are on terms not materially less favorable to the Company or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that could reasonably be
expected to be obtained in a comparable transaction at such time on an arm’s-length basis from a Person that is not an Affiliate of the Company; and 

(12) transactions between the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary and any Person, a director of which is also a director of
the Company or any direct or indirect parent company of the Company, and such director is the sole cause for such Person to be deemed an Affiliate of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that such director shall
abstain from voting as a director of the Company or such direct or indirect parent company, as the case may be, on any matter involving such other Person. 

  
 87 

 Section 16.15. Future Subsidiary Guarantors. 

The Company will cause any Restricted Subsidiary that is not already a Subsidiary Guarantor that Guarantees any Indebtedness of the Company or
a Subsidiary Guarantor under a Credit Facility or that incurs any Indebtedness under the First Lien Credit Agreement, in each case, to execute and deliver to the Trustee within 30 days of such guarantee or incurrence a supplemental indenture (in
substantially the form specified in Exhibit E to this Indenture) pursuant to which such Subsidiary will unconditionally Guarantee, on a joint and several basis, the full and prompt payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the
Notes on a senior basis. Any such Subsidiary Guarantee will be subject to the release and other provisions of Article Ten. 
 Section 16.16.
Business Activities. 
 The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, engage in any business
activity other than the Oil and Gas Business, except to such extent as would not be material to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole. 

Section 16.17. Offer to Repurchase Upon a Change of Control. 

(a) If a Change of Control occurs, unless the Company has previously or concurrently exercised its right to redeem all of the Notes pursuant to
Section 3.07, each Holder will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess of $2,000) of such Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of
the principal amount of the Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date). 

(b) Within 30 days following any Change of Control, unless the Company has previously or concurrently exercised its right to redeem all of the
Notes pursuant to Section 3.07, the Company shall mail a notice (the “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder, with a copy to the Trustee, stating, among other things: 

(1) that a Change of Control has occurred and that such Holder has the right to require the Company to purchase such
Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount of such Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on a record date to receive interest on
the relevant Interest Payment Date) (the “Change of Control Payment”); 
 (2) the repurchase date (which
shall be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed) (the “Change of Control Payment Date”); 

(3) that any Note not properly tendered will remain outstanding and continue to accrue interest; 

(4) that unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Payment, all Notes accepted for payment pursuant
to the Change of Control Offer will cease to accrue interest on the Change of Control Payment Date; 

  
 88 

 (5) that Holders electing to have any Notes in certificated form purchased
pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender such Notes, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of such Notes completed, to the paying agent specified in the notice at the address
specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date; 

(6) that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their tendered Notes and their election to require the Company to purchase such
Notes, provided, that the paying agent receives, not later than the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter complying with the requirements
of Section 4.17(f) below; 
 (7) that if the Company is repurchasing a portion of the Note of any Holder, the Holder
will be issued a new Note equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered, provided, that the unpurchased portion of the Note must be equal to a minimum principal amount of $2,000 and an integral multiple of
$1,000 in excess of $2,000; and 
 (8) other procedures determined by the Company, consistent with this Indenture, that a
Holder must follow in order to have its Notes repurchased. 
 (c) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company will, to the extent
lawful: 
 (1) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes (in a minimum principal amount of $2,000 and integral
multiples of $1,000 in excess of $2,000) properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer and not properly withdrawn; 

(2) deposit with the paying agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes
accepted for payment, provided, however, that the funds once deposited are to be uninvested until disbursed pursuant to this Section 4.17; and 

(3) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes so accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating
the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Company. 
 (d) The paying agent will promptly mail or
deliver to each Holder of Notes accepted for payment the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to
any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided, that each such new Note will be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess of $2,000. 

(e) If the Change of Control Payment Date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any
accrued and unpaid interest, will be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no further interest will be payable to Holders who tender pursuant to the Change of Control Offer. 

  
 89 

 (f) A tender made in response to a Change of Control Payment Notice may be withdrawn if the
Company receives, not later than the third Business Day prior to the Change of Control Payment Date, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter, specifying, as applicable: (1) the name of the Holder; (2) the certificate number of
the Note in respect of which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted; (3) the principal amount of the Note (which shall be $2,000 or whole multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) delivered for purchase by the Company as to which such notice
of withdrawal is being submitted; (4) a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such principal amount of such Note purchased; and (5) the principal amount, if any, of such Note (which shall be $2,000 or whole
multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) that remains subject to the original Change of Control Payment Notice and that has been or will be delivered for purchase by the Company. 

(g) Subject to applicable unclaimed property laws, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall return to the Company, upon its request, any cash
that remains unclaimed for two years after a Change of Control Payment Date together with interest or dividends, if any, thereon (subject to Section 7.01(f)), held by them for the payment of the Change of Control Payment; and the Holder of such
tendered and accepted Note shall thereafter look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such cash, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease;
provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, shall at the expense of the Company comply with the Commission Regulation 17AD-17 as it applies to lost bondholders;
provided, further however, that (x) to the extent that the aggregate amount of cash deposited by the Company pursuant to clause (2) of paragraph (c) of this Section 4.17 exceeds the aggregate Change of Control Payment of
the Notes or portions thereof to be purchased, then the Trustee shall hold such excess for the Company and (y) unless otherwise directed by the Company in writing, promptly after the Business Day following the Change of Control Payment Date the
Trustee shall return any such excess to the Company together with interest, if any, thereon (subject to Section 7.01(f)). 
 (h) The
Company shall comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Notes as a result of a Change of Control. To the extent that
the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section 4.17, the Company shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this
Section 4.17 by virtue of such conflict. 
 (i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to make a Change of
Control Offer upon a Change of Control if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the
Company and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer. 
 (j) In the event that Holders of
not less than 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in a Change of Control 

  
 90 

 
Offer and the Company, or any third party making a Change of Control Offer in lieu of the Company pursuant to Section 4.17(i) above, purchases all of the Notes validly tendered and not
withdrawn by such Holders, the Company will have the right, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following the purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer described under this
Section 4.17, to redeem all of the Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price in cash equal to the applicable Change of Control Payment plus, to the extent not included in the Change of Control Payment, accrued
and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption. 
 (k) A Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, and
conditioned upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time of making of the Change of Control Offer. 

Section 16.18. Termination of Covenants. 

From and after the occurrence of an Investment Grade Rating Event, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries will no longer be subject to the

corporation), or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, in one or more related transactions to, any Person, unless: 

(1) the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (the “Successor Company”) is a corporation, partnership,
trust or limited liability company organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State of the United States or the District of Columbia and the Successor Company (if not the Company) expressly assumes, by supplemental
indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, all the obligations of the Company under the Notes, this Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement; 

(2) immediately after giving effect to such transaction (and treating any Indebtedness that becomes an obligation of the
Successor Company or any Subsidiary of the Successor Company as a result of such transaction as having been Incurred by the Successor Company or such Subsidiary at the time of such transaction), no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing; 

  
 91 

 (3) either (A) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, the
Successor Company would be able to Incur at least an additional $1.00 of Indebtedness pursuant to Section 4.09(a), or (B) immediately after giving effect to such transaction on a pro forma basis and any related financing transactions as if
the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four quarter period, the Consolidated Coverage Ratio of the Company is equal to or greater than the Consolidated Coverage Ratio of the Company immediately before such transaction; 

(4) if the Company is not the Successor Company, each Subsidiary Guarantor (unless it is the other party to the transactions
above, in which case clause (1) above shall apply) shall have by supplemental indenture confirmed that its Subsidiary Guarantee shall apply to such Person’s obligations in respect of this Indenture and the Notes shall continue to be in
effect; and 
 (5) the Company shall have delivered, to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel,
to the effect that such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer or lease and such supplemental indenture (if any) comply with this Indenture. 
 For
purposes of this Section 5.01, the sale, lease, conveyance, assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of one or more Subsidiaries of the Company, which properties and assets, if held by
the Company instead of such Subsidiaries, would constitute all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company on a consolidated basis, shall be deemed to be the transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company.

 (b) The Company shall not permit any Subsidiary Guarantor to consolidate with or merge with or into, and will not permit the conveyance,
transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the assets of any Subsidiary Guarantor to, any Person (other than the Company or another Subsidiary Guarantor) unless: 

(1) (a) the resulting, surviving or transferee Person is a corporation, partnership, trust or limited liability company
organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State of the United States or the District of Columbia and such Person (if not such Subsidiary Guarantor) expressly assumes, by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered
to the Trustee, all the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement; (b) immediately after giving effect to such transaction (and treating any Indebtedness that
becomes an obligation of the resulting, surviving or transferee Person or any Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such transaction as having been Incurred by such Person or such Restricted Subsidiary at the time of such transaction), no Default
shall have occurred and be continuing; and (c) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger or transfer and such supplemental indenture (if
any) comply with this Indenture; or 

  
 92 

 (2) the transaction will result in the release of the Subsidiary Guarantor from
its obligations under this Indenture and its Subsidiary Guarantee after and upon compliance with Section 10.04. 
 (c) Notwithstanding
the preceding clause (3) of Section 5.01(a), (x) any Restricted Subsidiary may consolidate with, merge into or transfer all or part of its properties and assets to the Company and the Company may consolidate with, merge into or
transfer all or part of its properties and assets to a Subsidiary Guarantor and (y) the Company may merge with an Affiliate incorporated solely for the purpose of reincorporating the Company in another jurisdiction; and provided further
that, in the case of a Restricted Subsidiary that consolidates with, merges into or transfers all or part of its properties and assets to the Company, the Company will not be required to comply with the preceding clause (5) of
Section 5.01(a). 
 (d) Upon any consolidation of the Company with, or merger of the Company into, any other Person or any conveyance,
transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company in accordance with Section 5.01(a), the Successor Company shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company, under this
Indenture with the same effect as if such successor Person has been named as the Company herein, and thereafter, except in the case of a lease, the predecessor Person shall be released from the obligation to pay the principal of and interests on the
Notes and all other covenants and obligations under this Indenture.

 95 

 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default specified in clause (6) above shall
have occurred and be continuing, such Event of Default and any consequential acceleration (to the extent not in violation of any applicable law or in conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction) shall be automatically
rescinded if (i) the Indebtedness that is the subject of such Event of Default has been repaid, or (ii) if the default relating to such Indebtedness is waived by the holders of such Indebtedness or cured and if such Indebtedness has been
accelerated, then the holders thereof have rescinded their declaration of acceleration in respect of such Indebtedness, in each case within 20 days after the declaration of acceleration with respect thereto. 

Section 18.02. Acceleration. 
 (a) If
an Event of Default (other than as specified in clause (7) or (8) of Section 6.01 with respect to the Company) shall occur and be continuing with respect to this Indenture, the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate
principal amount of the Notes then outstanding may, and the Trustee at the request of such Holders shall, declare all unpaid principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on all Notes to be due and payable immediately, by a notice
in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by the Holders of the Notes) and upon any such declaration, such principal, premium, if any, and interest shall become due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default specified in clause
(7) or (8) of Section 6.01 with respect to the Company occurs and is continuing, the principal of, premium, if any, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes will become and be immediately due and payable without any
declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders. 
 (b) After a declaration of acceleration, the Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of Notes outstanding by notice to the Company and the Trustee, on behalf of the Holders of Notes, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if: 

(1) the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay (A) all sums paid or advanced by the
Trustee under this Indenture and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, (B) all overdue interest on all Notes then outstanding, and (C) the principal of, and premium, if
any, on any Notes then outstanding which have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and interest thereon at the rate borne by the Notes; 

(2) the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction; and 

(3) all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes which have
become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in this Indenture. 
 (c) No such rescission
shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon. 

  
 96 

 Section 18.03. Other Remedies. 

(a) If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal, premium,
if any, or interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture. 
 (b) The Trustee may
maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder of a Note in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon and during the
continuance of an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law. 

Section 18.04. Waiver of Past Defaults. 

The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes outstanding, by written notice (including, without
limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for the Notes) to the Trustee and the Company, may on behalf of the Holders of all outstanding Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default or
non-compliance with any provisions under this Indenture and its consequences, except a continuing Default or Event of Default (1) in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note (which may only be waived with the
consent of each Holder of Notes affected), or (2) in respect of a covenant or provision which under this Indenture cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Note affected by such modification or amendment. In case
of any such waiver, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder and under the Notes, respectively. This Section 6.04 shall be in lieu of Section 316(a)(1)(B) of the TIA and such
Section 316(a)(1)(B) of the TIA is hereby expressly excluded from this Indenture and the Notes, as permitted by the TIA. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have
been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 

Section 18.05. Control by Majority. 

Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any
proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on it. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or that the Trustee determines is
unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holders of Notes or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability. 
 Section 18.06. Limitation
on Suits. 
 Subject to Section 6.07 and Section 7.01, no Holder of any of the Notes has any right to institute any proceedings
with respect to this Indenture or any remedy thereunder, unless (1) such Holder has previously given the Trustee written notice that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (2) the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal
amount of the outstanding 

  
 97 

 
Notes have requested the Trustee pursue the remedy, (3) such Holders have furnished reasonable security or indemnity to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense, (4) the
Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the furnishing of security or indemnity, and (5) the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes have not waived such Event of
Default or otherwise given the Trustee a direction that, in the opinion of the Trustee, is inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period. 

Section 18.07. Rights of Holders of Notes to Receive Payment. 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Note to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, or
interest on such Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Note (including in connection with an offer to purchase), or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired
or affected without the consent of such Holder. 
 Section 18.08. Collection Suit by Trustee. 

If an Event of Default specified in clause (1) or (2) of Section 6.01 above occurs and is continuing, the Trustee is authorized
to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company for the whole amount of overdue principal of, premium, if any, interest remaining unpaid on the Notes and to the extent lawful, interest on overdue principal,
premium, if any, and interest and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel. 

Section 18.09. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 

The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the
claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company or any
Subsidiary Guarantor (or any other obligor upon the Notes), its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other securities or property payable or deliverable on any such claims and
any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any
amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured
by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or
arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes
or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding. 

  
 98 

 Section 18.10. Priorities. 

(a) If the Trustee collects any money or other property pursuant to this Article Six, it shall pay out the money and other property in the
following order: 
 First: to the Collateral Trustee, its agents and attorneys for amounts due under Section 7.07, including
payment of all compensation, expense and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Collateral Trustee and the costs and expenses of collection; 

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

Third: to the Company or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct. 

(b) The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders of Notes pursuant to this Section 6.10. 

Section 18.11. Undertaking for Costs. 

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

Duties of Trustee. 
 (a) If 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 its exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs. 

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

(1) the duties of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture and the Trustee need

not be segregated from other funds and need not be held in an interest-bearing account, in each case except to the extent required by law or by any other provision of this Indenture. The Trustee (acting in any capacity hereunder) shall not be liable
for interest on any money received by it hereunder unless the Trustee otherwise agrees in writing with the Company. 
 Section 19.02. Certain Rights

and agents and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent or attorney appointed with due care.

inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit. 
 (i) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits
given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and to each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder.

 (j) The Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or that the Trustee determines is unduly
prejudicial to the right of any other Holder or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability.

Trustee. 
 The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may become a creditor of, or
otherwise deal with, the Company or any of its Affiliates 

  
 101 

 
with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest as described in the TIA while any Default exists, it must
eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the Commission for permission to continue as Trustee with such conflict or resign as Trustee. Any Agent may do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee is also subject to Sections 7.10 and
7.11. 
 Section 19.04. Trustee’s Disclaimer. 

The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture, it shall not be

the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of, premium or interest on any Note, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its
Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of the Holders of the Notes. 
 Section 19.06. Reports
by Trustee to Holders of the Notes. 
 (a) Within 60 days after each May 15 beginning with May 15, 2015, and for so long as

twelve months preceding the reporting date, no report need be transmitted). The Trustee also shall comply with TIA Section 313(b)(2). The Trustee shall also transmit by mail all reports as required by TIA Section 313(c). 

(b) A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to the Holders of Notes shall be mailed to the Company and filed with the Commission and
each stock exchange on which the Notes are listed in accordance with TIA Section 313(d). The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee when the Notes are listed on any stock exchange or any delisting thereof. 

Section 19.07. Compensation and Indemnity.

capacity against any and all losses, liabilities or reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by it arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Indenture, including the costs and expenses of
enforcing this Indenture against the Company (including this Section 7.07) and defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by either of the Company or any Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection with the exercise or
performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, except to the extent any such loss, liability or expense may be attributable to its negligence or bad faith. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek
indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder. The Company shall defend the claim and the Trustee shall cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may elect to have separate counsel
defend the claim, but the Company will be obligated to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such separate counsel only if the Company fails to assume the Trustee’s defense or there is a conflict of interest between the Company, on the one
hand, and the Trustee, on the other hand, with respect to the claim, as reasonably determined by the Trustee. The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. 

(c) The obligations of the Company under this Section 7.07 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 

(d) To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this section, the Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or
property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal, premium, if any, and interest on particular Notes. Such Lien shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of the
Trustee. 
 (e) When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in clause (7) or (8) of
Section 6.01 occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law. 

Section 19.08. Replacement of Trustee. 

(a) A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee shall become effective only upon the successor
Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.08. 
 (b) The Trustee may resign in writing at any time and be
discharged from the trust hereby created by so notifying the Company. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Company in writing. The Company may remove
the Trustee if: 
 (1) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10; 

  
 103 

 (2) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for relief is
entered with respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law; 
 (3) a custodian or public officer takes charge of the
Trustee or its property; or 
 (4) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting. 

(c) If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Company shall promptly appoint a
successor Trustee. Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may appoint a successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. 

(d) If a successor Trustee does not take office within 30 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the
Company, or the Holders of Notes of at least 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may petition at the expense of the Company any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 

(e) If the Trustee, after written request by any Holder who has been a Holder for at least three months, fails to comply with
Section 7.10, such Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee. 

(f) A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Thereupon, the
resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to
Holders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, provided, that all sums owing to the Trustee hereunder have been paid and subject to the Lien provided for in
Section 7.07. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08, the Company’s obligations under Section 7.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee. 

Section 19.09. Successor Trustee by Merger, Etc. 

If the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another Person,
the successor Person without any further act shall be the successor Trustee. 
 Section 19.10. Eligibility; Disqualification. 

There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of
America or of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, that is subject to supervision or examination by Federal or state authorities and that has (or its corporate parent shall have) a combined capital
and surplus of at least $100.0 million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. 

  
 104 

 This Indenture shall always have a Trustee who satisfies the requirements of TIA
Section 310(a)(1), (2) and (5). The Trustee is subject to TIA Section 310(b). 
 Section 19.11. Preferential Collection of Claims
Against Company. 
 The Trustee is subject to TIA Section 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA
Section 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA Section 311(a) to the extent indicated therein. 

Section 19.12. Trustee in Other Capacities. 

References to the Trustee in Sections 7.01, 7.02, 7.03, 7.04, 7.07, 7.08 and 7.09 shall be understood to include the Trustee when acting in
other capacities under the Indenture, the Notes, the Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents, including, without limitation, as Collateral Trustee and Paying Agent. Without limiting the foregoing, and for the avoidance of doubt, such
Sections shall be read to apply to the Collateral Trustee and the Intercreditor Agreement and Security Documents, mutatis mutandis, in addition to this Indenture. The privileges, rights, indemnities and exculpatory provisions contained in this
Indenture shall apply to the Trustee, wherever it is acting under the Intercreditor Agreement or the Security Documents. 
 ARTICLE TWENTY

 DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE 

Section 20.01. Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 

The Company may, at its option and at any time, elect to have either Section 8.02 or 8.03 be applied to all outstanding Notes upon
compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article Eight. 
 Section 20.02. Legal Defeasance and Discharge. 

Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, the Company shall, subject to the
satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations with respect to this Indenture and the Security Documents and all outstanding Notes and all obligations of the Subsidiary
Guarantors shall be deemed to have been discharged with respect to their obligations under this Indenture, the Guarantees and the Security Documents on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal
Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes and Guarantees, respectively, which
shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 8.02, and shall be deemed discharged from
the payment and performance of all other obligations under this Indenture, the Notes, the Guarantees and the Security Documents (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the
same), except for the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (a) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive solely from Funds in Trust

  
 105 

 
(as defined in Section 8.04 and as more fully set forth in such Section) payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Notes when such payments are due,
(b) subject to clause (a) of this Section 8.02, the Company’s obligations with respect to such Notes under Article Two and Section 4.02, (c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and
(d) this Article Eight. If the Company exercises its legal defeasance option pursuant to this Section 8.02, the Subsidiary Guarantees will terminate with respect to the Notes, and payment of the Notes may not be accelerated pursuant to
Section 6.02 because of an Event of Default. Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Company may exercise its option (if any) to have this Section 8.02 applied to any Notes notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option (if any)
to have Section 8.03 applied to such Notes. 
 Section 20.03. Covenant Defeasance. 

Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Company shall, subject to the
satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, be released from its obligations, and each Restricted Subsidiary shall be released from its obligations, under the covenants contained in Sections 4.09 through 4.17, the covenants set
forth in the Security Documents and the limitations set forth in clause (3) of Section 5.01(a) with respect to the outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 are satisfied (hereinafter,
“Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such
covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes to the extent permitted by GAAP). For this purpose,
Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes, the Company and each Restricted Subsidiary may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant,
whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not
constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture, the Security Documents and such Notes shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Company’s exercise
under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, (i) Sections 6.01(6), (7), (8) (clauses (7) and (8) with respect to
Significant Subsidiaries only), and Sections 6.01(9) and (10) shall not constitute Events of Default and (ii) payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in Sections 6.01(4), (5), (6), (7),
(8) (clauses (7) and (8) with respect to Significant Subsidiaries only), or Sections 6.01(9) and (10) or because of the failure of the Company to comply with clause (3) of Section 5.01(a). 

Section 20.04. Conditions to Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 

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

dedicated solely to, the benefit of the Holders of 

  
 106 

 
the Notes cash in United States dollars, U.S. Government Obligations, or a combination thereof (“Funds in Trust”), in such amounts as, in the aggregate, will be sufficient, in
the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants or a nationally recognized investment banking firm, to pay and discharge the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the outstanding Notes on the Stated Maturity
(or the applicable redemption date), if at or prior to electing either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, the Company has delivered to the Trustee an irrevocable notice to redeem all of the outstanding Notes on such redemption date, and the
Company must specify whether the Notes are being defeased to Stated Maturity or to a particular redemption date); 
 (b) in the case of
Legal Defeasance, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an opinion of independent counsel in the United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the
Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (B) since the date of this Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable Federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the
Holders and Beneficial Owners of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same
manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had not occurred; 
 (c) in the case of Covenant
Defeasance, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an opinion of independent counsel in the United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the Holders and Beneficial Owners of the outstanding Notes will not recognize
income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit and
defeasance had not occurred; 
 (d) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit (other
than an Event of Default or Default resulting from the incurrence of Indebtedness or Liens securing such Indebtedness, all or a portion of the proceeds of which will be applied to such deposit); 

(e) such deposit shall not result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or instrument (other than this
Indenture or the Security Documents) to which the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary is a party or by which it is bound or if such breach or default would occur, which is not waived as of, or for all purposes, on or
after, the date of such deposit; 
 (f) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the
deposit was not made by the Company with the intent of preferring the Holders of the Notes or any Guarantee over the other creditors of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding creditors
of the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor or others; and 

  
 107 

 (g) the Company will have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion
of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, have been complied with. 

Section 20.05. Deposited Money and U.S. Government Obligations to Be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. 

(a) Subject to Section 8.06, all money and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or
other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.04 in respect of the outstanding Notes shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the
provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium and
interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
 (b) The Company shall pay and
indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such
tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes. 
 (c) Anything in this Article Eight to
the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon the request of the Company any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 8.04 which, in the opinion of a
nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants, nationally recognized investment banking firm, or appraisal firm expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under
Section 8.04(a)), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 

Section 20.06. Repayment to the Company. 

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium,
if any, or interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, and premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company upon its request; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter look
only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the
Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, shall at the expense of the Company comply with the Commission Regulation 17AD-17 as it applies to lost bondholders. 

Section 20.07. Reinstatement. 
 If
the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any United States dollars or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority
enjoining, restraining or 

  
 108 

 
otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Company’s obligations to make the related payments under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit
had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the
Company makes any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money
held by the Trustee or Paying Agent. 
 ARTICLE TWENTY-ONE 

AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER 

Section 21.01. Without Consent of Holders of Notes. 

(a) Notwithstanding Section 9.02, the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor and the Trustee and the Collateral Trustee may modify, supplement

(1) cure any ambiguity, omission, defect, mistake or inconsistency;

trustee therefor) holding such Indebtedness thereto and to establish that the Liens on any Collateral securing such Indebtedness shall (x) in the case of Pari Passu Indebtedness, rank equally with the Liens on such Collateral securing the other
Pari Passu Indebtedness then outstanding and (y) in the case of Junior Lien Indebtedness, rank junior to the Liens on such Collateral securing the Pari Passu Indebtedness then outstanding. The Intercreditor Agreement will also provide that in

(b) Upon the request of the Company, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 13.04 and Section 9.06,
the Trustee shall join with the Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor in the execution of any amendment or supplement authorized or permitted by the terms of this Indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be
therein contained, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to enter into such amendment or supplement that affects its own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise. 

Section 21.02. With Consent of Holders of Notes. 

(a) Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor and the Trustee may amend or supplement this
Indenture, the Notes, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes (including Additional Notes, if any) then outstanding (including, without

(6) waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, or interest or premium on, the Notes (except a
rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration) or impair the right of any Holder to

(7) modify the Subsidiary Guarantees in any manner adverse to the Holders of the Notes;

 (b) The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining
the Persons entitled to consent to any indenture supplemental hereto. If a record date is fixed, the Holders on such record date, or its duly designated proxies, and only such Persons, shall be entitled to consent to such supplemental indenture,
whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided, that unless such consent shall have become effective by virtue of the requisite percentage having been obtained prior to the date which is 90 days after such record
date, any such consent previously given shall automatically and without further action by any Holder be canceled and of no further effect. 

(c) Upon the request of the Company accompanied by a resolution of its Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amendment,
supplement or waiver, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders of Notes as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 9.06 and
Section 13.04, the Trustee shall join with the Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor in the execution of such amendment, supplement or waiver unless such amendment, supplement or waiver directly affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or

(d) It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders of Notes under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any
proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. 

  
 111 

 (e) After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the
Company shall mail to the Holders of Notes a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Company to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any
such amendment, supplement or waiver. 
 Section 21.03. Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. 

Every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Notes shall be set forth in an amended or supplemental Indenture that complies with the
TIA as then in effect. 
 Section 21.04. Revocation and Effect of Consents. 

Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a
Note and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder of a
Note may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms
and thereafter binds every Holder. 
 Section 21.05. Notation on or Exchange of Notes. 

(a) The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Company in
exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver. 

(b) Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note shall not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or
waiver. 
 Section 21.06. Trustee to Sign Amendments, Etc. 

The Trustee shall sign any amended or supplemental indenture or Note authorized pursuant to this Article Nine if the amendment or supplement
does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture or Note, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive and shall be fully protected in relying upon an
Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. 

ARTICLE TWENTY-TWO 

SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES 
 Section 22.01.
Subsidiary Guarantee. 
 (a) Subject to this Article Ten, each of the Subsidiary Guarantors, jointly and severally, fully and
unconditionally, guarantees, on a senior unsecured basis, to each Holder of a 

  
 112 

 
Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations
of the Company hereunder or thereunder, that: (i) the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes will be promptly paid in full when due, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the
overdue principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful (subject in all cases to any applicable grace period provided herein), and all other monetary obligations of the Company to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or
thereunder will be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (ii) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same will be
promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for
whatever reason, the Subsidiary Guarantors shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection. 

(b) The Subsidiary Guarantors agree that, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, their obligations hereunder shall be
unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or
thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a Subsidiary Guarantor. Subject to Section 6.06,
each Subsidiary Guarantor 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 covenant that this Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture. 

(c) If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors or any custodian,
trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either of the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors, any amount paid by either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be
reinstated in full force and effect. 
 (d) Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in
relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Subsidiary Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders
and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article Six for the purposes of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing
such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article Six, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become
due and payable by the Subsidiary Guarantors for the purpose of this Guarantee. Each Subsidiary Guarantor that makes a payment or distribution under its Guarantee shall have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Subsidiary Guarantor, in
a pro rata amount based on the net assets of each Subsidiary Guarantor determined in accordance with GAAP, so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Guarantee. 

  
 113 

 (e) In respect to its obligations under its Guarantee, each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees to be
bound to, and hereby covenants, with respect to itself, the covenant set forth in Section 4.06. 
 Section 22.02. Limitation on Subsidiary
Guarantor Liability. 
 Each Subsidiary Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention
of all such parties that the Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar Federal
or state law to the extent applicable to any Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor will be limited to the
maximum amount which, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor, and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of
the obligations of such other Subsidiary Guarantor under its Guarantee or pursuant to its contribution obligations under this Article Ten, will result in the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent
conveyance or fraudulent transfer under Federal or state law. 
 Section 22.03. Execution and Delivery of Notation of Guarantee. 

(a) To evidence its Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01, with respect to the Notes issued on the Issue Date, a Subsidiary Guarantor shall
execute a notation of such Guarantee substantially in the form included in Exhibit D hereto endorsed by an Officer of such Subsidiary Guarantor by manual or facsimile signature on each Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee. 

(b) Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 shall remain in full force and effect
notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Guarantee. 
 (c) If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture
or on the notation of Guarantee no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note on which a notation of Guarantee is endorsed, the Guarantee shall be valid nevertheless. 

(d) 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 Subsidiary Guarantors. 
 Section 22.04. Releases of Subsidiary Guarantors. 

(a) A Subsidiary Guarantor will be deemed automatically and unconditionally released and discharged from all of its obligations under its
Guarantee without any further action on the part of the Trustee or any Holder of the Notes: 

  
 114 

 (1) in the event that a Subsidiary Guarantor is sold or disposed of (whether by
merger, consolidation, the sale of its Capital Stock or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets (other than by lease)) and whether or not the Subsidiary Guarantor is the surviving entity in such transaction to a Person which is not the
Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company if the sale or other disposition does not violate Section 4.13. 
 (2)
if the Company designates such Subsidiary Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary and such designation complies with the other applicable provisions of this Indenture or if the Subsidiary Guarantor no longer meets the definition of Restricted
Subsidiary; 
 (3) if such Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to guarantee any other Indebtedness of the Company or a Subsidiary
Guarantor under a Credit Facility, and is not a borrower under the First Lien Credit Agreement, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; or 

(4) upon a satisfaction and discharge or a legal or covenant defeasance of the Notes in accordance with Article Eight or
Article Twelve. 
 (b) Any Subsidiary Guarantor not released from its obligations under its Guarantee shall remain liable for the full
amount of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes and for the other obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor under this Indenture as provided in this Article Ten.

COLLATERAL AND SECURITY 
 Section 23.01.
The Collateral Trustee. By accepting a Note, each Holder is deemed to have irrevocably appointed the Collateral Trustee to act as its agent under the Security Documents and irrevocably authorized the Collateral Trustee to (i) perform the
duties and exercise the rights, powers and discretions that are specifically given to it under the Security Documents or other documents to which it is a party, together with any other incidental rights, powers and discretions, and (ii) execute
each document expressed to be executed by the Collateral Trustee on its behalf. The Collateral Trustee will have no duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Security Documents to which it is party; provided that no
provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Collateral Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct. Notwithstanding the generality of the foregoing: 

(a) The duties and obligations of the Collateral Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture and the
Security Documents and the Collateral Trustee shall not be liable to any party hereto or to any Security Document to which it is a party by reason of any failure on the part of any other party hereto or any maker, guarantor, endorser or other
signatory of any document or any other Person to perform such Person’s obligations under any such document. 
 (b) The Collateral
Trustee shall not be responsible in any manner for the validity, enforceability or sufficiency of this Indenture, the Security Documents or any Collateral 

  
 115 

 
delivered under the Security Documents, or for the value or collectability of any Notes, Pari Passu Indebtedness covered by the Security Documents or other instrument, if any, so delivered, or
for any representations made or obligations assumed by any party other than the Collateral Trustee. The Collateral Trustee shall not be bound to examine or inquire into or be liable for any defect or failure in the right or title of the Grantors to
all or any of the assets whether such defect or failure was known to the Collateral Trustee or might have been discovered upon examination or inquiry and whether capable of remedy or not. 

(c) The Collateral Trustee shall not be responsible for any unsuitability, inadequacy, expiration or unfitness of any security interest
created pursuant to any Security Document pertaining to this matter nor shall it be obligated to make any investigation into, and shall be entitled to assume, the adequacy and fitness of any security interest created pursuant to any Security
Document pertaining to this matter. 
 (d) The Collateral Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment, or for any act done or step
taken or omitted by it in good faith or for any mistake in fact or law, or for anything which it may do or refrain from doing in connection herewith, in each case except for its own bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct. 

(e) The Collateral Trustee may seek the advice, at the expense of the Company, of legal counsel in the event of any dispute or question as to
the construction of any of the provisions of this Indenture or its duties hereunder or under any Security Document or applicable law, and it shall incur no liability and shall be fully protected in respect of any action taken, omitted or suffered by
it in good faith in accordance with the advice or written opinion of such counsel. 
 (f) The Collateral Trustee shall not be bound to make
any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, approval or other paper or document it receives in connection with this Indenture or any Security
Document. 
 (g) IN NO EVENT SHALL THE COLLATERAL TRUSTEE BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL LOSS OR DAMAGE OF
ANY KIND WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOST PROFITS, EVEN IF SUCH LOSS OR DAMAGE WAS FORESEEABLE OR IT HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE LIKELIHOOD OF SUCH LOSS OR DAMAGE AND REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION. 

(h) In no event shall the Collateral Trustee be liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder or under any
Security Document because of circumstances beyond its control, including, but not limited to, acts of God, flood, war (whether declared or undeclared), terrorism, strikes, work stoppages, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural
catastrophes, fire, riot, embargo, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services, government action, including any laws, ordinances, regulations, governmental action or the like which delay, restrict
or prohibit the providing of the services contemplated by this Indenture or any Security Document. 

  
 116 

 (i) The Collateral Trustee agrees to accept and act upon facsimile transmission of written
instructions pursuant to this Indenture or any Security Document; provided that (i) the party providing such written instructions, subsequent to such transmission of written instructions, shall provide the originally executed
instructions or directions to the Collateral Trustee in a timely manner, and (ii) such originally executed instructions or directions shall be signed by an authorized representative of the party providing such instructions or directions. 

(j) The Collateral Trustee shall be entitled to seek written directions from the Second Lien Representative prior to taking any action under
this Indenture or any Security Document or with respect to any Collateral. 
 (k) Except with respect to its own bad faith, gross negligence
or willful misconduct, the Collateral Trustee shall not be responsible to any Holder for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of, or the perfection or priority of any Lien or security interest
created or purported to be created under or in connection with, any Security Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto. 

(l) The Collateral Trustee shall have no responsibility for or liability with respect to monitoring compliance of any other party to the
Security Documents, this Indenture or any other document related hereto or thereto. The Collateral Trustee has no duty to monitor the value or rating of any Collateral on an ongoing basis. 

(m) No provision of this Indenture or any Security Document shall require the Collateral Trustee to expend, advance or risk its own funds or
otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties under this Indenture or in any of the Security Documents or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers hereunder or under any of the Security Documents unless it is
indemnified to its satisfaction and the Collateral Trustee shall have no liability to any Person for any loss occasioned by any delay in taking or failure to take any such action while it is awaiting an indemnity satisfactory to it. 

(n) Whenever in the administration of this Indenture or any Security Document the Collateral Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be
proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Collateral Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence on its part,
conclusively rely upon instructions from the Second Lien Representative. 
 (o) The Collateral Trustee may act and rely and shall be
protected in acting and relying in good faith on the opinion or advice of, or information obtained from, any counsel, accountant, investment banker, appraiser or other expert or adviser, whether retained or employed by the Second Lien Representative
or by the Collateral Trustee. 
 (p) The Collateral Trustee may employ or retain such counsel, accountants, sub-agent, agent or attorney in
fact, appraisers or other experts or advisers as it may reasonably require for the purpose of determining and discharging its rights and duties hereunder and shall not be responsible for the actions of any such parties it appoints with due care.

  
 117 

 (q) The Collateral Trustee may request that the Second Lien Representative or other parties
deliver a certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture or any Security Document. 

(r) Money held by the Collateral Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The
Collateral Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed by the Collateral Trustee in writing. 

(s) Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof, the Collateral Trustee shall have no duty as to any Collateral in its
possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee or any income thereon or as to preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto and the Collateral Trustee shall not be responsible for
filing any financing or continuation statements or recording any documents or instruments in any public office at any time or times or otherwise perfecting or maintaining the perfection of any Lien or security interest in the Collateral. The
Collateral Trustee shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords similar collateral and shall not be liable
or responsible for any loss or diminution in the value of any of the Collateral, by reason of the act or omission of any carrier, forwarding agency or other agent or bailee. 

(t) The Collateral Trustee shall not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral or for the validity,
perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens on any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder, except to the extent such action or omission constitutes gross
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Collateral Trustee, for the validity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any agreement or assignment contained therein, for the validity of the title to the Collateral, for insuring the
Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral. The Collateral Trustee shall have no duty to ascertain or inquire as to or monitor the performance or
observance of any of the terms of this Indenture or the Security Documents. 
 (u) The Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, jointly and
severally, shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Collateral Trustee from and against any claims, demands, penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements, damages or reasonable costs or expenses of whatever kind or nature, known or unknown,
contingent or otherwise, arising out of the following in respect of the Collateral: 
 (v) the presence, disposal, release, or threatened
release of any Hazardous Materials which are on, from, or affecting the soil, water, vegetation, buildings, personal property, Persons or animals; (x) any personal injury (including wrongful death) or property damage (real or personal) arising
out of or related to such Hazardous Materials; (y) any lawsuit brought or threatened, settlement reached, or government order relating to such Hazardous Materials, and/or (z) any violation of laws, orders, regulations, requirements or
demands of government authorities, which are based upon or in any way related to such Hazardous Materials 

  
 118 

 
including, reasonable attorney and consultant fees and expenses, reasonable investigation and laboratory fees, court costs, and reasonable litigation expenses, except, in each case, where such
claims, demands, penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements, damages, costs or expenses arise from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Collateral Trustee as determined in a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent
jurisdiction. For purposes of this paragraph, “Hazardous Materials” includes radioactive materials, hazardous materials, hazardous wastes, hazardous or toxic substances defined in the U.S. Comprehensive Environmental Response,
Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980, as amended (42 U.S.C. §9601, et. seq.) (“CERCLA”), the Hazardous Materials Transportation Act, as amended (49 U.S.C. Sections 5108, et seq.), the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, as
amended (42 U.S.C. Sections 6901, et seq.), and in the regulations adopted and publications promulgated pursuant thereto, or any other Federal, state or local environmental law, ordinance, rule, or regulation. The provisions of this paragraph shall
be in addition to any and all other obligations and liabilities the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors may have to the Collateral Trustee at common law, and shall survive the termination of this Indenture. 

(w) The Collateral Trustee reserves the right to conduct an environmental audit prior to foreclosing on any real estate Collateral or mortgage
Collateral. The Collateral Trustee reserves the right to forebear from foreclosing in its own name if to do so may expose it to undue risk. 

(x) Upon any payment or distribution of assets hereunder or under any Security Document, the Collateral Trustee shall be entitled to
conclusively rely upon any order or decree entered by any court of competent jurisdiction in which an insolvency or liquidation proceeding is pending, or a certificate of the trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, custodian, receiver, assignee
for the benefit of creditors, agent or other Person making such payment or distribution in such insolvency or liquidation proceeding, delivered to the Collateral Trustee, for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such
payment or distribution, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto. 

(y) In the event that, following a foreclosure in respect of any Property, the Collateral Trustee acquires title to any portion of such
Property or takes any managerial action of any kind in regard thereto in order to carry out any fiduciary or trust obligation for the benefit of another, which in the Collateral Trustee’s sole discretion may cause the Collateral Trustee to be
considered an “owner or operator” under the provisions of CERCLA or otherwise cause the Collateral Trustee to incur liability under CERCLA or any other Federal, state or local law, the Collateral Trustee reserves the right, instead of
taking such action, to either resign as Collateral Trustee or arrange for the transfer of the title or control of the asset to a court-appointed receiver. 

(z) The rights and protections of the Collateral Trustee set forth herein shall also be applicable to the Collateral Trustee in its roles as
mortgagee, beneficiary, pledgee or any of its other roles (including as Collateral Trustee) under the Security Documents.

in all respects) in favor of the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders.

 (f) Each Holder, by accepting the Notes, is
deemed to acknowledge that, as more fully set forth in the Security Documents, the Collateral as now or hereafter constituted shall be for the benefit of all the Holders, the Collateral Trustee, the Trustee and the other secured parties described in

 121 

 
respect thereof or incurrence or refinancing or the granting of any Liens to secure any Pari Passu Indebtedness or Junior Lien Indebtedness permitted hereunder or as is otherwise set forth
therein, as are reasonably acceptable to the Trustee and Collateral Trustee to give effect thereto, in each case on behalf of such Holder and without any further consent, authorization or other action by such Holder. The Trustee shall have the
benefit of the provisions of Article Seven with respect to all actions taken by it pursuant to this Section 11.04 or in accordance with the terms of each of the Intercreditor Agreement to the full extent thereof.

Trust Agreement. The Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor consents to, and agrees to be bound by, the terms of the Collateral Trust Agreement, as the same may be in effect from time to time, and to perform its obligations thereunder in accordance

be automatically released from the Lien and security interest created by the Security Documents at any time or from time to time in accordance with the provisions of the Security Documents or as provided hereby under any one or more of the following
circumstances: 
 (1) in connection with asset sales and dispositions permitted or not prohibited under Section 4.13, so
long as, in the case of an Asset Sale, the Company will apply the Net Proceeds in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.13; provided, that such Liens will not be released if such sale or disposition is to the Company or a
Restricted Subsidiary; 
 (2) with respect to the assets of a Subsidiary Guarantor that constitute Collateral, upon the
release of such Subsidiary Guarantor from its Guarantee; and 
 (3) as described in Section 9.02; and 

(4) if required in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement or the Collateral Trust Agreement. 

  
 122 

 (b) The Liens on all Collateral that secures the Notes and the Guarantees also will be released:

 (1) if the Company exercises its Legal Defeasance option or Covenant Defeasance option as described in Article 8; or 

(2) upon satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as described in Article 12 or payment in full of the principal of,
premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes and all other Obligations that are then due and payable. 
 The release of any
Collateral from the terms of the Security Documents shall not be deemed to impair the security under this Indenture in contravention of the provisions hereof if and to the extent the Collateral is released pursuant to this Indenture and the Security
Documents. To the extent permitted under the TIA and/or any interpretation or guidance as to the meaning thereof of the SEC and its staff, including “no action” letters or exemptive orders, the fair value of Collateral released from the
Liens and security interest created by this Indenture and the Security Documents pursuant to the terms of the Security Documents shall not be considered in determining whether the aggregate fair value of the Collateral released from the Liens and
security interest created by this Indenture and the Security Documents in any calendar year exceeds the 10% threshold specified in TIA § 314(d)(1). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph, the Company will not be required to
comply with all or any portion of TIA §314(d) if under the terms of TIA §314(d) and/or any interpretation or guidance as to the meaning thereof of the SEC and its staff, including “no action” letters or exemptive orders, all or
any portion of TIA §314(d) is inapplicable to one or a series of released Collateral. 
 (c) Upon receipt of an Officers’
Certificate and Opinion of Counsel that such release (and the execution, delivery and acknowledgement of the instruments specified below) is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that all relevant conditions precedent under this Indenture
have been met, the Collateral Trustee will execute, deliver or acknowledge any necessary or proper instruments of termination, satisfaction or release to evidence the release of any Collateral permitted to be released pursuant to this Indenture.

 Section 23.06. Form and Sufficiency of Release. In the event that (i) the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor has sold, exchanged, or
otherwise disposed of or proposes to sell, exchange or otherwise dispose of any portion of the Collateral that may be sold, exchanged or otherwise disposed of by the Company or such Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to the terms hereof, (ii) the
Company or such Subsidiary Guarantor requests the Trustee or the Collateral Trustee to furnish a written disclaimer, release or quit-claim of any interest in such property under this Indenture and the Security Documents and (iii) all conditions
set forth herein and for execution, acknowledgement and delivery of such an instrument have been satisfied, upon receipt of an Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel that such release (and the execution, delivery and acknowledgement of
such an instrument) is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that all relevant conditions precedent under this Indenture thereto have been met, the Collateral Trustee and the Trustee, as applicable, shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to
the Company or such Subsidiary Guarantor (in proper form) such an instrument. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, all purchasers and grantees of any property or rights purporting to be released herefrom shall be entitled to rely upon any release
executed by the Collateral Trustee hereunder as sufficient for the purpose of this Indenture and as constituting a good and valid release of the property therein described from the Lien of this Indenture or of the Security Documents. 

  
 123 

 Section 23.07. After-Acquired Property. Promptly, but in no event later than 90 days, following the
acquisition by the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor of any After Acquired Property, the Company or such Subsidiary Guarantor shall execute and deliver such mortgages, Security Document supplements, security instruments and financing statements as
shall be reasonably necessary to cause such After Acquired Property to be made subject to a perfected Lien (subject to Liens permitted under this Indenture, including Permitted Liens) in favor of the Collateral Trustee for the benefit of the Trustee
and the Holders of the Notes, and thereupon all provisions of this Indenture and the Security Documents relating to the Collateral shall be deemed to relate to such After Acquired Property to the same extent and with the same force and effect;
provided that the execution and delivery of such documents will only be required, and such After Acquired Property will only become part of the Collateral securing the Notes, if and to the extent that such After Acquired Property becomes part
of the Collateral securing the First Lien Credit Agreement substantially concurrently therewith.

 All
agreements of the Company in this Indenture and the Notes shall bind its successors. All agreements of the Trustee in this Indenture shall bind its successors. All agreements of each Subsidiary Guarantor in this Indenture shall bind its successors,

 128 

 Section 25.13. Acts of Holders. 

(a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by
the Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by agents duly appointed in writing, and may be given or obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender
offer or exchange offer for, outstanding Notes; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to
the Company. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such
instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company if made in the manner provided in this Section 13.13. 

(b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such
execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to such witness, notary or officer the execution
thereof. Where such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than his individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or
writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee deems sufficient. 

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 13.13, the principal amount and serial numbers of Notes held by
any Holder, and the date of holding the same, shall be proved by the register of the Notes maintained by the Registrar as provided in Section 2.04. 

(d) If the Company shall solicit from the Holders of the Notes any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other
Act, the Company may, at its option, fix in advance a record date for the determination of Holders entitled to give such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, but the Company shall have no obligation to do
so. Notwithstanding TIA Section 316(c), such record date shall be a date not earlier than the date 30 days prior to the first solicitation of Holders generally in connection therewith or the date of the most recent list of Holders forwarded to
the Trustee prior to such solicitation pursuant to Section 2.06 and not later than the date such solicitation is completed. If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act may
be given before or after such record date, but only the Holders of record at the close of business on such record date shall be deemed to be Holders for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of the then outstanding
Notes have authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and for that purpose the then outstanding Notes shall be computed

  
 129 

 
as of such record date; provided that no such authorization, agreement or consent by the Holders on such record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to
the provisions of this Indenture not later than eleven months after the record date. 
 (e) Subject to Section 9.04, any request,
demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act of the Holder of any Note shall bind every future Holder of the same Note and the Holder of every Note issued upon the registration or transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or
in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the Company in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Note. 

(f) Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled hereunder to take any action hereunder with regard to any particular Note may do so
itself with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such Note or by one or more duly appointed agents each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any part of such principal amount. 

(g) For purposes of this Indenture, any action by the Holders which may be taken in writing may be taken by electronic means or as otherwise
reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. 
 Section 25.14. Benefit of Indenture. 

Nothing in this Indenture or in the Notes, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto, any Paying Agent, any
Registrar and its successors hereunder, and the Holders, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture. 

Section 25.15. Table of Contents, Headings, Etc. 

The Table of Contents, Cross-Reference Table and Headings of the Articles and Sections of this Indenture have been inserted for convenience of
reference only, are not to be considered a part of this Indenture and shall in no way modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof. 

Section 25.16. Collateral Trustee. 

(a) The Collateral Trustee will hold (directly or through co-trustees or agents) and, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, will
be entitled to enforce all Liens on the Collateral created by the Security Documents. 
 (b) Except as provided in the Collateral Trust
Agreement or as directed by an Act of Pari Passu Debtholders in accordance with the Collateral Trust Agreement, the Collateral Trustee will not be obligated: 

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

(ii) to foreclose upon or otherwise enforce any Lien; or 

(iii) to take any other action whatsoever with regard to any or all of the Security Documents, the Liens created thereby or the Collateral.

GOODRICH PETROLEUM CORPORATION 

8.00% Second Lien Senior Secured Notes due 2018 

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

1. Interest. The Company promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at 8.00% per annum until maturity [and
shall pay Additional Interest, if any, as provided in the Registration Rights Agreement, dated March [            ], 20153 referred
below].4 The Company shall pay interest in cash semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year (each, an “Interest Payment Date”). Interest on the Notes
shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid on the Notes (or one or more Predecessor Notes) or, if no interest has been paid, from and including the date of original issuance; provided, that if there is no existing
Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date;
provided further that the first Interest Payment Date shall be [September 15, 2015].5 The Company shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy
Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at one percentage point in excess of the rate then in effect 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 periods) from time to time on demand at such higher rate to the extent lawful. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve
30-day months. If any payment date with respect to the Notes is not a Business Day, payment may be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, and no interest shall accrue on such payment for the intervening period provided such payment
is made on the next succeeding Business Day. 
 2. Method of Payment. The Company shall pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted
interest, if any) to the Persons in whose name this Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on March 1 or September 1 immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled
after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.13 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. If a Holder of the Notes has given wire transfer instructions to the Company or the
Paying Agent at least 10 Business Days before payment is due, the Company shall pay all principal, interest and premium, if any, on that Holder’s Notes in accordance with those instructions to an account in the United States. All other payments
on the Notes shall be made at the office or agency of the Paying Agent designated by the Company in the City and State of New York unless the Company elects to make interest payments by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the
register of Holders. Payments of interest to the Trustee as Paying Agent, if the Trustee then acts as Paying Agent, with respect to any Interest Payment Date shall be made by the Company in immediately available funds for receipt by the Trustee no

  

	3 	For Additional Notes, insert the appropriate Interest Payment Date for those Additional Notes. 

	4 	Not to be included for Exchange Notes. 

	5 	 For Additional Notes, insert the appropriate Interest Payment Date for those Additional Notes.

  
 Exhibit A - 6 

 
later than 1:00 p.m. New York Time on such Interest Payment Date. The Company will pay principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, Global Notes held by the Depository or its nominee, in
immediately available funds to the Depository or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered holder of such Global Note. 
 The Notes
shall be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and interest at the office or agency of the Paying Agent designated by the Company in the City and State of New York and maintained for such purpose, or, at the option of the Company, payment of
interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders, and provided, that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds shall be required with respect to principal of, premium,
if any, and interest on, all Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which shall have provided wire transfer instructions to an account in the United States to the Company or the Paying Agent. Such payment shall be in such coin or currency
of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. 
 3. Paying Agent and
Registrar. Initially, U.S. Bank National Association, the Trustee under the Indenture, shall act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its
Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity (except for purposes of Articles 8 or 11 under the Indenture). 
 4. Indenture. The Company
issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of March 12, 2015 (the “Indenture”) by and between the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantor named therein and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and
those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and such Act for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision
of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. The Indenture pursuant to which this Note is issued provides that an unlimited amount of Additional Notes may be
issued thereunder, subject to compliance with the covenants therein, and provided that if the Additional Notes are not fungible with the Initial Notes for United States federal income tax purposes, the Additional Notes will have a separate
CUSIP number. 
 5. Optional Redemption. The Notes shall be redeemable at the option of the Company as provided in Article Three of
the Indenture. 
 6. Mandatory Redemption. The Company shall not be required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments
with respect to the Notes. 
 7. Repurchase at Option of Holders. 

(a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each Holder may require the Company to purchase such Holder’s Notes in whole or in part
in amounts of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, at a purchase price in cash in an amount equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase (subject to the rights
of Holders of record on relevant record dates to receive interest due on an Interest Payment Date), pursuant to a Change of Control Offer in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture. 

  
 Exhibit A - 7 

 (b) Under certain circumstances described in the Indenture, the Company will be required to apply
the proceeds of Asset Dispositions to the repayment of the Notes and/or Subject Debt. 
 8. Selection and Notice of Redemption. If
less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be redeemed among the Holders of the Notes in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes
are listed or, if the Notes are not so listed, then on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee in its sole discretion will deem to be fair and appropriate (or in the case of Global Notes, the Trustee will select Notes for
redemption based on the Depository’s method that most nearly approximates a pro rata selection). 
 9. Denominations, Transfer,
Exchange. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and whole multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar
and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Company may require a Holder to pay any transfer taxes or other governmental taxes and fees payable in connection therewith.
The Company is not required to transfer or exchange any Note selected for redemption. Also, the Company is not required to transfer or exchange any Note for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed. 

10. Persons Deemed Owners. The registered Holder of a Note will be treated as its owner for all purposes. 

11. Amendment, Supplement and Waiver. The Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented only as provided in the Indenture. 

12. Defaults. In the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization specified in
the Indenture, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the then
outstanding Notes may, and the Trustee at the request of such Holders shall, declare all unpaid principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest on all Notes to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the
Trustee if given by the Holders of the Notes) and upon any such declaration, such principal, premium, if any, and interest shall become due and payable immediately. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of any continuing Default
or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Notes outstanding by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all outstanding Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default of Event of Default (1) in the
payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note (which may only be waived with the consent of each Holder of Notes affected) or (2) in respect of a covenant or provision which under the Indenture cannot be modified or
amended without the consent of the Holder of each Note affected by such modification or amendment. 

  
 Exhibit A - 8 

 13. Trustee Dealings with the Company. The Trustee, in its individual or any other
capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Company or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee. 

14. No Recourse Against Others. No director, officer, employee, incorporator, stockholder, member, partner or trustee of the Company or
any Subsidiary Guarantor, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor under the Notes, the Indenture, the Security Documents or the Guarantees, or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by
reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. 

15. Authentication. This Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent.

 16. Additional Rights of Holders of Restricted Global Notes and Restricted Definitive Notes. [In addition to the rights provided
to Holders under the Indenture, Holders of Restricted Global Notes and Restricted Definitive Notes issued on the Issue Date shall have all the rights set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement dated as of March [    ], 20156 , among the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantor and the parties named on the signature pages thereof.]7

 The undersigned represents and warrants to you that: 

1. We are an institutional “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)) purchasing for our own account or for the account of such an institutional “accredited investor” at least $250,000 principal amount of the Securities, and we are acquiring the
Securities not with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution in violation of the Securities Act. We have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the 

  
 Exhibit B-2 - 1 

 merits and risk of our investment in the Securities and we invest in or purchase securities similar to the
Securities in the normal course of our business. We and any accounts for which we are acting are each able to bear the economic risk of our or its investment. 

2. We understand that the Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act and, unless so registered, may not be sold except as
permitted in the following sentence. We agree on our own behalf and on behalf of any investor account for which we are purchasing Securities to offer, sell or otherwise transfer such Securities prior to the date that is one year after the later of
the date of original issue and the last date on which the Company or any affiliate of the Company was the owner of such Securities (or any predecessor thereto) (the “Resale Restriction Termination Date”) only (a) to the Company,
(b) pursuant to a registration statement which has been declared effective under the Securities Act, (c) in a transaction complying with the requirements of Rule 144A under the Securities Act, to a person we reasonably believe is a
qualified institutional buyer under Rule 144A (a “QIB”) that purchases for its own account or for the account of a QIB and to whom notice is given that the transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A, (d) pursuant to offers and
sales that occur outside the United States within the meaning of Regulation S under the Securities Act, (e) to an institutional “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities
Act that is purchasing for its own account or for the account of such an institutional “accredited investor,” in each case in a minimum principal amount of Securities of $250,000 or (f) pursuant to any other available exemption from
the registration requirements of the Securities Act, subject in each of the foregoing cases to any requirement of law that the disposition of our property or the property of such investor account or accounts be at all times within our or their
control and in compliance with any applicable state securities laws. The foregoing restrictions on resale will not apply subsequent to the Resale Restriction Termination Date. If any resale or other transfer of the Securities is proposed to be made
pursuant to clause (e) above prior to the Resale Restriction Termination Date, the transferor shall deliver a letter from the transferee substantially in the form of this letter to the Company and the Trustee, which shall provide, among other
things, that the transferee is an institutional “accredited investor” (within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act) and that it is acquiring such Securities for investment purposes and not for
distribution in violation of the Securities Act. Each purchaser acknowledges that the Company and the Trustee reserve the right prior to any offer, sale or other transfer prior to the Resale Termination Date of the Securities pursuant to clauses
(c), (d), (e) or (f) above to require, in the case of clauses (c) and (d), the delivery of certifications and/or other information satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee, and in the case of clauses (e) and (f), an opinion of
counsel, certifications and/or other information satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee.
