Description of Capital Stock

 

The following description of our common stock and Series Q preferred stock (“preferred stock”) is a summary and does not purport to be complete. It is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to our Articles of Incorporation of Prologis and related Articles of Amendment (both “Articles of Incorporation”), our Articles Supplementary, establishing and fixing the rights and preferences of the Series Q Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock of Prologis and related Articles Supplementary (both “Articles Supplementary”) and Eight Amended and Restated Bylaws of Prologis, Inc. (“Bylaws”), each of which are incorporated by reference herein and as an exhibit to our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). We encourage you to read our Articles of Incorporation, Articles Supplementary, Bylaws and the applicable provisions of the Maryland General Corporation Law (“MGCL”) and Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”) for additional information. 

 

Authorized Capital Stock 

 

General. Our authorized capital stock consists of 1,000,000,000 shares of common stock at a par value of $0.01 per share and 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock at a par value of $0.01 per share. 

 

Common Stock

 

Shares Outstanding. The outstanding shares of our common stock are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. Our common stock is listed under the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “PLD.” The transfer agent and securities registrar for our common stock is Computershare Trust Company, N.A.

 

Unissued Common Stock. The Articles of Incorporation authorize the board of directors (the “Board”) to reclassify any unissued shares of common stock into other classes or series of classes of stock and to establish the number of shares in each class or series and to set the preferences, conversion and other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations and restrictions on ownership, limitations as to dividends or other distributions, qualifications and terms or conditions of redemption for each such class or series.

 

The issuance of any shares of common stock in future financings, acquisitions or otherwise may result in dilution of voting power and relative equity interest of the holders of shares of our common stock and will subject our common stock to prior dividend and liquidation rights of the outstanding shares of the series of preferred stock.

 

Restrictions on Ownership. Prologis generally will prohibit ownership by a single stockholder to no more than 9.8% (by value or number of shares, whichever is more restrictive) of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock. 

 

Dividend Rights. The Board may declare and pay dividends on our common stock out of funds legally available for that purpose, subject to the rights of holders of preferred stock, as described below. 

 

Voting Rights. Each outstanding share of common stock will entitle the holder to one vote for all matters submitted to stockholders for a vote at every meeting of the stockholders, including the election of directors. The holders of such shares will possess the exclusive voting power, subject to any resolution adopted by the Board with respect to any other class or series of stock establishing the designation, powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and powers of such series. 

 

Holders may vote in person or authorize another person or persons to act by proxy. Our Bylaws provide that, all matters will be decided by the vote of the majority of the votes cast. Additionally, under MGCL, we generally cannot dissolve, amend our Articles of 

Incorporation or Bylaws, merge, sell all or substantially all of our assets, engage in a share exchange or similar transaction in the ordinary course of business unless approved by the affirmative vote of the stockholders holding at least two-thirds of the shares entitled to vote on the matter and our Articles of Incorporation do not provide for a lesser percentage in any situation.

 

Voting for the Election of Directors. Each director is to be elected by the vote of the majority of votes cast with respect to that director’s election; provided, if the number of persons properly nominated to serve as directors exceeds the number of directors to be elected, then each director will be elected by the vote of a plurality of the shares present in person or by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors.

 

Rights and Preferences. Holders of shares of common stock will not have any conversion, exchange, sinking or retirement fund, redemption or appraisal rights or any preemptive rights to subscribe for any securities of the Company or cumulative voting rights in the election of directors. 

 

Rights Upon Liquidation. Upon liquidation, the holders of our common stock are entitled to share ratably in assets available for distribution to stockholders after satisfaction of any liquidation preferences of any outstanding preferred stock. 

 

Preferred Stock

 

Shares Outstanding. The outstanding shares of our preferred stock are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. Under our Articles of Incorporation, without further stockholder action, the Board is authorized, subject to any limitations prescribed by MGCL and DGCL, to provide for the issuance of the shares of preferred stock in one or more series, to establish from time to time the number of shares to be included in such series, to fix the designation, powers, preferences and rights of the shares of each such series and any qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof.

 

Restriction on Ownership. No person or persons acting as a group at any time may directly or indirectly acquire ownership of more than 25% of the outstanding preferred stock or Prologis may redeem such shares from the holder or holders within 10 days of becoming aware of such activity. 

 

Redemption Provisions. Prior to November 13, 2026, preferred stock will not be redeemable by Prologis, however, after this date at the option of Prologis, we may redeem the shares in whole at a redemption price of $50 per share. If full cumulative dividends on the preferred stock have not been declared and paid or declared and set apart for payment, they may not be redeemed at the option of Prologis except to enforce the ownership restrictions described above as well as to preserve its tax status.

 

Dividend Rights. The annual dividend rate is 8.54% per share and dividends are payable in arrears. Pursuant to the terms of our preferred stock, we are restricted from declaring or paying any dividend with respect to our common stock unless and until all cumulative dividends with respect to the preferred stock have been paid and sufficient funds have been set aside for dividends that have been declared for the relevant dividend period with respect to the preferred stock. 

 

Voting Rights. The voting rights of preferred stock are limited. If and whenever six quarterly dividends payable on the preferred stock is in arrears, whether or not earned or declared, the number of directors then constituting the Board will be increased by two and the holders of preferred stock, together with the holders of shares of every other class, voting as a single class, regardless of class or series will be entitled to elect two additional directors to serve at annual meeting of stockholders or special meeting held in place thereof. The affirmative vote of at least 66 2/3% of the votes entitled to be case by the holders of the preferred stock is required to approve: (i) any changes to the Articles of Incorporation or Articles Supplementary that materially and adversely affects the voting powers, rights or preferences of the preferred stock; (ii) any share exchange, consolidation, or merger that materially and adversely affects the holders of the preferred stock and; (iii) the authorization, reclassification or creation of, or the increase in the authorized amount of, any security ranking senior to the preferred stock in the distribution of assets on any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company or in the payment of dividends.

 

Rights and Preferences. The preferred stock is not entitled to the benefits of any retirement of sinking fund and the holders have no conversion, redemption or preemption rights.

 

Rights Upon Liquidation. Preferred stockholders receive a liquidation preference of $50 per share.

 

Anti-takeover Effects of Certain Provisions of the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws

 

General. Our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws contain certain provisions, including our ability to limit the actual or constructive ownership of shares of capital stock that may be deemed to have an anti-takeover effect and may delay, deter or prevent a tender offer or take-over attempt that a stockholder might consider in its best interest, including those attempts that might result in premium over the market price for the shares held by the stockholders. 

 

Business Combinations and Control Share Acquisitions Statues. In the Prologis’ Bylaws we have elected not to be governed by the "business combination" provision of the MGCL or the "control share acquisition" provisions of the MGCL, which could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control of the Company. The Bylaws provide that the Company cannot at a future date determine to be governed by either such provision without the approval of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote. In addition, such irrevocable resolution adopted by the Board may only be changed by the approval of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote.

 

Description of Debt Securities of Prologis, Inc. and Prologis, L.P.

 

The following description of our debt securities is a summary and does not purport to be complete. It is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the Indenture, dated as of June 8, 2011 by and among the Operating Partnership, as issuer, Prologis, as guarantor, and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (“Base Indenture” and as supplemented by the First, Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth, Six, Seventh and Eighth Supplemental Indentures thereto, which are referred to herein as the “Indenture”) and Officers’ Certificates and Forms of Notes incorporated by reference herein and as exhibits to our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC. 

 

General

 

The following listing summarizes our six classes of notes (“Notes”) registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act and are denominated in U.S. dollar, euro and British pound sterling and their related documents comprising their respective terms as filed with the SEC:

The Indenture 

 

General. All Notes are unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of Prologis underneath the Indenture, as defined above. The Notes are issuable in registered form in the form set out in the Indenture with coupons in denominations of $100,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof for U.S. dollar-denominated notes, €100,000 and any integral multiple of €1,000 in excess thereof for euro-denominated notes and £100,000 and any integral multiple of £1,000 in excess thereof for British pound sterling-denominated notes. None of the Notes are redeemable or convertible at the option of the holders. The Notes do not provide for any sinking fund or analogous provision and are not to be issued upon the exercise of debt warrants. 

 

Issuance of Additional Notes. The aggregate principal amount of the Notes which may be authenticated and delivered under the Indenture is unlimited. The Notes may be issued in one or more series. The additional series would be established pursuant to one or more Board Resolutions or supplemental indentures.

 

Trustee. The U.S. Bank National Association is the trustee for all securities issued under the Indenture, including the Notes, and is referred to herein as the Trustee. 

 

Paying Agent, Transfer Agent and Security Registrar. The U.S. dollar-denominated notes define the paying agent as any person authorized by Prologis to pay the principal of or any interest on any securities on behalf of Prologis or if no such person is authorized, the paying agent is Prologis. The U.S. dollar-denominated notes also define the transfer agent and security registrar as the Trustee. The euro-denominated notes define the European paying agent and transfer agent as Elavon Financial Services Limited, UK Branch and the European security registrar as Elavon Financial Services Limited. The British pound sterling-denominated notes define U.S. Bank National Association as the transfer agent and security registrar and Elavon Financial Services DAC, UK Branch as the paying agent. 

 

Voting Rights. To be entitled to vote at any meeting of the holders of the Notes, a person must be a holder of one or more series of Notes or a person appointed by an instrument in writing as a proxy for a holder or holders of one or more such series. At any meeting each holder will be entitled to one vote for each $1,000 principal amount of the Notes.

 

Purposes for Which Meetings May Be Called. A meeting of holders may be called at any time to make, give or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action. A quorum for a meeting is defined when there is a majority of persons entitled to vote in principal amount of the total Notes. In the absence of a quorum within thirty minutes of the appointed meeting, the meeting will be dissolved or adjourned for a period of 10 days or less. Any resolution presented to a meeting or an adjourned meeting for which a quorum is present may be adopted by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes and may become binding for all holders, whether present, not present or represented at the meeting. 

 

The Trustee may make reasonable regulations as it may deem advisable at any meetings in regard to proof of the holding of the Notes, the appointment or proxies, the duties of inspectors of the votes, other evidence of the right to vote and other such matters concerning conduct, including the appointment of a temporary chairman.

 

Execution of Supplemental Indentures. The Trustee may enter into a supplemental indenture for the purpose of adding, changing or eliminating any provisions to the Base Indenture or related supplemental indentures or to modify the rights of the holders and any related guarantees provided. To do so, the Trustee receives the consent of the holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of all Notes. 

 

Redemption Provisions. The Notes are redeemable in whole at any time at the option of Prologis at a redemption price of equal to the greater of 100% of the principal amount (“Make-Whole Amount’) or the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed discounted to the date of the redemption on an annual basis at the applicable comparable governmental bond rate plus 20 basis points (“Redemption Price”). If the notes are redeemed on or after a certain time frame as defined in each note, the price is 100% of the principal amount.  

 

Payment of Additional Amounts Upon Redemption. All repayments of the Notes will be made by or on behalf of the Company without withholding or deduction for any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature, imposed or levied by the United States (“U.S.”) or any taxing authority thereof or therein, unless such withholding or deduction is required by law. If 

such withholding or deduction is required by law, Prologis will pay to a holder who is not a U.S. person such additional amounts (the “Additional Amounts”) on the Notes as are necessary in order that the net payment by the Company or the paying agent of the principal of, and premium (“Tax Redemption Price”), if any, and interest on, the Notes to such holder, after such withholding or deduction, will not be less than the amount provided in the Notes to be then due and payable; provided, however, that the foregoing obligation to pay the Additional Amounts will not apply to certain items as defined in the Indenture.

 

Issuance in Euro and British Pound Sterling. Excluding the U.S. dollar-denominated notes, the principal, interest and related Additional Amounts on the euro-denominated and British pound sterling-denominated notes (or Make-Whole Amount, Redemption Price or Tax Redemption Price) is payable in euro or British pound sterling, as applicable in each note’s terms. If the euro or British pound sterling is unavailable due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the Company’s control, then all payments in respect of the notes will be made in U.S. dollars until the euro or British pound sterling is again available to Prologis. The amount payable on any date in euros or British pound sterling will be converted to U.S. dollars on the second business day, which is not weekend day or a day on which banking institutions in The City of New York or London are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close and on which the Trans-European Automated Real-Time Gross Settlement Express Transfer system is open. The rate used would be:

 

	
(1) 
	
the Market Exchange Rate for euro, which is the noon buying rate in The City of New York for cable transfers of euros as certified for customs; or the most recently available Market Exchange Rate on or before payment is due; or  

 

	
(2) 
	
the rate mandated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve system for British pound sterling, which is based on the most recent U.S. dollar/British pound sterling exchange rate published in The Wall Street Journal. If there is no published exchange rate, the rate is determined at Prologis’ sole discretion for British pound sterling.

 

Any payment in respect of the euro-denominated and British pound sterling-denominated notes made in U.S. dollars will not constitute an Event of Default, as defined below, under the Indenture. Neither the Trustee nor the paying agent is responsible for obtaining exchange rates, effecting conversions or otherwise handling redenomination’s.

 

Covenants. Under the Indenture, Prologis must maintain specific covenants on a quarterly basis to incur additional debt and continue to perform under the Indenture and not create an Event of Default, including:

 

	
(1) 
	
all outstanding debt of Prologis on a consolidated basis in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles must be less than 60% of the sum of total assets as of the quarter covered by the Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q;

 

	
(2) 
	
the consolidated income available for debt service, as defined in the Indenture, to the annual debt service charge for four consecutive fiscal quarters as of the most recently ended period must be greater than 1.5, on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the application of proceeds from the incurrence or refinance of additional debt had it occurred at the beginning of such period;

 

	
(3) 
	
the total unencumbered assets may not at any time be equal to or less than 150% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the unsecured debt; 

 

	
(4) 
	
total debt secured by any mortgage, lien, charge, pledge, encumbrance or security interest of any kind upon any of the property to total assets cannot be equal to or greater than 40% of all outstanding debt; and

 

	
(5) 
	
debt will be deemed to be incurred by the Company or subsidiary whenever the Company or subsidiary will create, assume, guarantee or otherwise become liable. 

 

Events of Default. As described in the Indenture, there are many reasons for events of default, including but not limited to default in payment of principal and any premium when a series of Notes is due and payable at maturity, default in the payment of interest or any Additional Amounts payable, default in performance or breach of any covenant or warranty of the Company in the Indenture, default of other indebtedness of the Company, the court entering into a final judgment or decree in an aggregate amount, excluding insurance, in excess of $50,000,000 and such charges remaining for 60 days and the court entering into an order or decree of bankruptcy law.

 

If an event of default under the Indenture with respect to a series of debt securities occurs and is continuing, then in every such case, unless the principal of the debt securities of such series shall already have become due and payable, the trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of such series of debt securities may declare the principal and the make-whole amount on the debt securities of such series to be due and payable immediately by written notice to the Operating Partnership that payment of the debt securities is due, and to the trustee if given by the holders. 

 

Subject to provisions in the Indenture relating to its duties in case of default, the trustee is under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the Indenture at the request or direction of any holders of any series of debt securities then outstanding under the Indenture, unless such holders shall have offered to the trustee reasonable security or indemnity. The holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the debt securities of a series shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the trustee, or of exercising any trust or power conferred upon the trustee with respect to that series. However, the trustee may refuse to follow any direction which is in conflict with any law or the Indenture, which may involve the trustee in personal liability or which may be unduly prejudicial to the holders of the debt securities not joining in the proceeding.

 

Description of Debt Securities of Prologis Euro Finance LLC, Prologis Yen Finance LLC and Prologis Sterling Finance LLC 

 

In 2018, we formed finance subsidiaries as part of our operations in Europe (Prologis Euro Finance LLC), Japan (Prologis Yen Finance LLC) and the United Kingdom (Prologis Sterling Finance LLC).

There are no restrictions or limits on the OP’s ability to obtain funds from its subsidiaries by dividend or loan. In reliance on Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X, the separate financial statements of Prologis Euro Finance LLC, Prologis Yen Finance LLC and Prologis Sterling Finance LLC are not provided in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as the finance subsidiaries are entities bearing no assets, operations, revenues or cash flows other than those related to the issuance, administration and repayment of the securities being registered and any securities guaranteed by the OP. As the debt securities of Prologis Euro Finance LLC listed in this exhibit are unconditionally guaranteed and 100% indirectly owned by the OP we consider them other securities of the OP for purposes of this exhibit.

In the absence of a quorum within thirty minutes of the appointed meeting, the meeting will be dissolved or adjourned for a period of 10 days or less. Any resolution presented to a meeting or an adjourned meeting for which a quorum is present may be adopted by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Finance Subsidiary Notes and may become binding for all holders, whether present, not present or represented at the meeting. 

 

The Trustee may make reasonable regulations as it may deem advisable at any meetings in regard to proof of the holding of the Finance Subsidiary Notes, the appointment or proxies, the duties of inspectors of the votes, other evidence of the right to vote and other such matters concerning conduct, including the appointment of a temporary chairman.

 

Execution of Supplemental Indentures. The Trustee may enter into a supplemental indenture for the purpose of adding, changing or eliminating any provisions to the Finance Subsidiary Indenture or related supplemental indentures or to modify the rights of the holders and any related guarantees provided. To do so, the Trustee receives the consent of the holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of all Finance Subsidiary Notes affected by the proposed change. 

 

Redemption Provisions. The euro-denominated notes are redeemable in whole at any time at the option of the OP at a redemption price of equal to the greater of 100% of the principal amount (“Make-Whole Amount’) or the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the euro-denominated notes to be redeemed discounted to the date of the redemption on an annual basis at the applicable comparable governmental bond rate plus 20 basis points, in the case of the 2027 notes, 25 basis points, in the case of the 2029 notes, 20 basis points, in the case of the 2031 notes, and 30 basis points, in the case of the 2049 notes (“Redemption Price”). If the euro-denominated notes are redeemed on or after a certain time frame as defined in each note, the price is 100% of the principal amount. 

 

Payment of Additional Amounts Upon Redemption. All repayments of the Finance Subsidiary Notes will be made by or on behalf of the finance subsidiaries without withholding or deduction for any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature, imposed or levied by the U.S. or any taxing authority thereof or therein, unless such withholding or deduction is required by law. If such withholding or deduction is required by law, the finance subsidiaries will pay to a holder who is not a U.S. person such additional amounts (the “Additional Amounts”) on the Finance Subsidiary Notes as are necessary in order that the net payment by the finance subsidiary or the paying agent of the principal of, and premium (“Tax Redemption Price”), if any, and interest on, the Finance Subsidiary Notes to such holder, after such withholding or deduction, will not be less than the amount provided in the Finance Subsidiary Notes to be then due and payable; provided, however, that the foregoing obligation to pay Additional Amounts will not apply to certain items as defined in the Finance Subsidiary Indenture.

 

Issuance in Euro and Yen. The principal, interest and related Additional Amounts on the Finance Subsidiary Notes (or Make-Whole Amount, Redemption Price or Tax Redemption Price) is payable in euro. If the euro is unavailable due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the control of Prologis Euro Finance LLC, then all payments in respect of the Finance Subsidiary Notes will be made in U.S. Dollars until the euro is again available to Prologis Euro Finance LLC. The amount payable on any date in euros will be converted to U.S. Dollars on the second business day, which is not weekend day or a day on which banking 

institutions in the cities of New York, London are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close and on which the Trans-European Automated Real-Time Gross Settlement Express Transfer system is open. The rate used would be:

 

	
(1)
	
the rate mandated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System as of the close of business on the second business day prior to the relevant payment date; or

 

	
(2)
	
the most recent U.S. dollar/euro exchange rate published in The Wall Street Journal on or prior to the second business day prior to the relevant payment date if the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System has not announced a rate of conversion; or

 

	
(3)
	
the rate determined at the sole discretion of Prologis Euro Finance LLC on the basis of the most recently available market exchange rate for euro, in the event The Wall Street Journal has not published such exchange rate.   

 

Any payment in respect of the Finance Subsidiary Notes made in U.S. dollars will not constitute an Event of Default, as defined below, under the Finance Subsidiary Indenture. Neither the Trustee nor the paying agent is responsible for obtaining exchange rates, effecting conversions or otherwise handling redenomination’s.

 

Covenants. Under the Finance Subsidiary Indenture, the OP must maintain specific covenants to incur additional debt and continue to perform under the Finance Subsidiaries Indenture and not create an Event of Default, including:

 

	
(1) 
	
all outstanding debt of the OP on a consolidated basis in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles must be less than 60% of the sum of total assets as of the quarter covered by the Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q;

 

	
(2) 
	
the consolidated income available for debt service, as defined in the Finance Subsidiary Indenture, to the annual debt service charge for four consecutive fiscal quarters as of the most recently ended period must be greater than 1.5, on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the application of proceeds from the incurrence or refinance of additional debt had it occurred at the beginning of such period;

 

	
(3) 
	
the total unencumbered assets may not at any time be equal to or less than 150% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the unsecured debt of the OP; 

 

	
(4) 
	
total debt secured by any mortgage, lien, charge, pledge, encumbrance or security interest of any kind upon any of the property to total assets cannot be equal to or greater than 40% of all outstanding debt of the OP; and

 

	
(5) 
	
debt will be deemed to be incurred by the OP or subsidiary whenever the OP or subsidiary will create, assume, guarantee or otherwise become liable. 

 

Events of Default. As described in the Finance Subsidiary Indenture, there are many reasons for events of default, including but not limited to default in payment of principal and any premium when a series of Finance Subsidiary Notes is due and payable at maturity, default in the payment of interest or any Additional Amounts payable, default in performance of any covenant of the Company in the Finance Subsidiary Indenture, default of other indebtedness of the Company, the court entering into a final judgment or decree in an aggregate amount, excluding insurance, in excess of $50,000,000 and such charges remaining for 60 days and the court entering into an order or decree of bankruptcy law.

 

If an event of default under the Finance Subsidiary Indenture with respect to a series of debt securities occurs and is continuing, then in every such case, unless the principal of the debt securities of such series shall already have become due and payable, the trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of such series of debt securities may declare the principal and the make-whole amount on the debt securities of such series to be due and payable immediately by written notice to the Operating Partnership that payment of the debt securities is due, and to the trustee if given by the holders. 

 

Subject to provisions in the Finance Subsidiary Indenture relating to its duties in case of default, the trustee is under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the Finance Subsidiary Indenture at the request or direction of any holders of any series of debt securities then outstanding under the Finance Subsidiary Indenture, unless such holders shall have offered to the trustee reasonable security or indemnity. The holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the debt securities of a series shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the trustee, or of exercising any trust or power conferred upon the trustee with respect to that series. However, the trustee may refuse to follow any direction which is in conflict with any law or the Finance Subsidiary Indenture, which may involve the trustee in personal liability or which may be unduly prejudicial to the holders of the debt securities not joining in the proceeding.EX-4.1

 INDENTURE dated as of February 11, 2020, among Parsley Energy, LLC, a Delaware limited
liability company (together with its successors as provided herein, the “Company”), and Parsley Finance Corp., a Delaware corporation (together with its successors as provided herein, “Finance Corp.” and, together
with the Company, the “Issuers”), the Guarantors party hereto from time to time (as defined herein) and U.S. Bank National Association, a national banking association, as Trustee. 

The Issuers, the Guarantors and the Trustee agree as follows for the benefit of each other and for the equal and ratable benefit of the
Holders (as defined herein) of the 4.125% Senior Notes due 2028 (the “Notes”): 
 ARTICLE 1 

DEFINITIONS AND INCORPORATION BY REFERENCE 

Section 1.01    Definitions. 

“144A Global Note” means a Global Note substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto bearing the Global Note Legend and the
Private Placement Legend and deposited with or on behalf of, and registered in the name of, the Depositary or its nominee that will be issued in a denomination equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Notes initially sold in reliance on Rule
144A. 
 “Acquired Debt” means, with respect to any specified Person: 

(1)    Indebtedness of any other Person existing at the time such other Person is merged with or into or
became a Subsidiary of such specified Person, whether or not such Indebtedness is incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such other Person merging with or into, or becoming a Restricted Subsidiary of, such specified Person; and 

(2)    Indebtedness secured by a Lien encumbering any asset acquired by such specified Person. 

“Additional Notes” means additional Notes (other than the Initial Notes) issued under this Indenture in accordance with
Sections 2.02 and 4.09 hereof, as part of the same series as the Initial Notes. 
 “Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible
Assets” means (without duplication), as of the date of determination, 
 (a)    the sum of: 

(i)    the discounted future net revenues from proved oil and natural gas reserves of the Company and its
Restricted Subsidiaries calculated in accordance with SEC guidelines before any state or federal income taxes, as estimated in a reserve report prepared as of the end of the Company’s most recently completed fiscal year for which a reserve
report is available, or at the Company’s option, the Company’s most recently completed fiscal quarter for which a reserve report is available, in each case, which reserve report is prepared or audited by independent

  
 1 

 
petroleum engineers or the Company’s petroleum engineers, as increased by, as of the date of determination, the estimated discounted future net revenues from: 

(A)    estimated proved oil and natural gas reserves of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries
acquired since the date of such year-end or quarterly reserve report, as applicable; and 

(B)    estimated proved oil and natural gas reserves of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries
attributable to extensions, discoveries and other additions and upward revisions of estimates of proved oil and natural gas reserves (including previously estimated development costs incurred during the period and the accretion of discount since the
prior period end) since the date of such year-end or quarterly reserve report, as applicable, due to exploration, development or exploitation, production or other activities which would, in accordance with
standard industry practice, cause such revisions, and decreased by, as of the date of determination, the discounted future net revenue attributable to: 

(C)    estimated proved oil and natural gas reserves of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries
reflected in such reserve report produced or disposed of since the date of such year-end or quarterly reserve report, as applicable; and 

(D)    reductions in estimated proved oil and natural gas reserves of the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries reflected in such reserve report attributable to downward revisions of estimates of proved oil and natural gas reserves since such year- or quarter-end, as applicable, due to changes in geological
conditions or other factors which would, in accordance with standard industry practice, cause such revisions; 
 in the case of the
preceding clauses (A) through (D), calculated on a pre-tax basis in accordance with SEC guidelines (utilizing the prices utilized in such Person’s year-end or
quarterly reserve report, as applicable) and estimated by the Company’s petroleum engineers or any independent petroleum engineers engaged by the Company for that purpose; 

(ii)    the capitalized costs that are attributable to oil and gas properties of the Company and its
Restricted Subsidiaries to which no proved oil and natural gas reserves are attributable, based on the Company’s books and records as of a date no earlier than the last day of the Company’s most recent quarterly or annual period for which
internal financial statements are available; 
 (iii)    the Consolidated Net Working Capital of the
Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries as of a date no earlier than the last day of the Company’s most recent quarterly or annual period for which internal financial statements are available; and 

  
 2 

 (iv)    the greater of: 

(A)    the net book value and 

(B)    the appraised value, as estimated by independent appraisers, of other tangible assets (including
Investments in unconsolidated Subsidiaries) 
 in each case, of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries as of a date no earlier than the last day of the
date of the Company’s most recent quarterly or annual period for which internal financial statements are available; provided that if no such appraisal has been performed, the Company shall not be required to obtain such an appraisal and
only clause (a)(iv)(A) of this definition shall apply, minus, to the extent not otherwise taken into account in this clause (a), 

(b)    the sum of 

(i)    minority interests; 

(ii)    any net gas balancing liabilities of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries as of the last day
of the Company’s most recent annual or quarterly period for which internal financial statements are available; 

(iii)    to the extent included in clause (a)(i) above, the discounted future net revenues, calculated in
accordance with SEC guidelines (utilizing the prices utilized in the Company’s year-end or quarterly reserve report, as applicable), attributable to reserves that 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 on the schedules specified with respect thereto; and 

(iv)    the discounted future net revenues, calculated in accordance with SEC guidelines, attributable to
reserves subject to Dollar-Denominated Production Payments that, based on the estimates of production and price assumptions included in determining the discounted future net revenues specified in (a)(i) above, would be necessary to fully satisfy the
payment obligations of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries with respect to Dollar-Denominated Production Payments on the schedules specified with respect thereto. 

If the Company changes its method of accounting from the successful efforts method to the full costs method or a similar method of accounting,
“Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets” will continue to be calculated as if the Company were still using the successful efforts method of accounting. For the avoidance of doubt, “oil and gas reserves” shall include any
reserves attributable to natural gas liquids. 
 “Affiliate” of any specified Person means any other Person directly or
indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with such specified Person. For purposes of this definition, “control,” as used with respect to any Person, means the possession, directly or indirectly, of
the power to direct or cause the direction of the management or policies of such Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by agreement or otherwise. For purposes of this definition, the terms “controlling,”
“controlled by” and “under common control with” have correlative meanings. 

  
 3 

 “Agent” means any Registrar or Paying Agent. 

“Applicable Premium” means, with respect to any Note on any redemption date, the greater of:

THE NOTES 

Section 2.01    Form and Dating. 

(a)    General. The Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication will be substantially in the form of
Exhibit A hereto. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or usage. Each Note will be dated the date of 

  
 33 

 
its authentication. The Notes shall be in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The terms and provisions contained in the Notes will constitute, and
are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture and the Issuers, the Guarantors and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the extent any
provision of any Note conflicts with the express provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling. 

(b)    Global Notes. Notes issued in global form will be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (including
the Global Note Legend thereon and the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto). Notes issued in definitive form will be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (but without the Global Note Legend
thereon and without the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto). Each Global Note will represent such of the outstanding Notes as will be specified therein and each shall provide that it represents the
aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges
and redemptions. Any endorsement of a Global Note to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby will be made by the Trustee or the Custodian, at the direction of the
Trustee, in accordance with instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.06 hereof. 

(c)    Temporary Global Notes. Notes offered and sold in reliance on Regulation S will be issued initially in the
form of the Regulation S Temporary Global Note, which will be deposited on behalf of the purchasers of the Notes represented thereby with the Trustee, as custodian for the Depositary, and registered in the name of the Depositary or the nominee of
the Depositary for the accounts of designated agents holding on behalf of Euroclear or Clearstream, duly executed by the Issuers and authenticated by the Trustee as hereinafter provided. The Restricted Period will terminate upon the delivery by the
Issuers to the Trustee of a written certificate from the Depositary as to the expiration of the Restricted Period, together with copies of certificates from Euroclear and Clearstream certifying that they have received certification of non-United States beneficial ownership of 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Regulation S Temporary Global Note (except to the extent of any beneficial owners thereof who acquired an interest therein
during the Restricted Period pursuant to another exemption from registration under the Securities Act and who will take delivery of a beneficial ownership interest in a 144A Global Note bearing a Private Placement Legend, all as contemplated by
Section 2.06(b) hereof). 
 Following the termination of the Restricted Period, the Company shall instruct, which instructions shall be
in writing and comply with Rule 9.03(b)(3)(ii)(B) of Regulation S, the Trustee to, and upon such instructions, the Trustee shall, exchange beneficial interests in the Regulation S Temporary Global Note for beneficial interests in the Regulation S
Permanent Global Note, pursuant to the Applicable Procedures. Simultaneously with the exchange of such beneficial interests and in accordance with Section 2.06(h), the Trustee will (i) reduce and endorse the Regulation S Temporary Global
Note accordingly and (ii) increase and endorse the Regulation S Permanent Global Note accordingly. The aggregate principal amount of the Regulation S Temporary Global Note and the Regulation S Permanent Global Note may from time to time be
increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee and the Depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, in connection with transfers of interest as hereinafter provided. 

  
 34 

 (d)    Euroclear and Clearstream Procedures Applicable. The
provisions of the “Operating Procedures of the Euroclear System” and “Terms and Conditions Governing Use of Euroclear” and the “General Terms and Conditions of Clearstream Banking” and “Customer Handbook” of
Clearstream will be applicable to transfers of beneficial interests in the Regulation S Temporary Global Note and the Regulation S Permanent Global Note that are held by Participants through Euroclear or Clearstream. 

Section 2.02    Execution and Authentication. 

At least one Officer must sign the Notes for each Issuer by manual, facsimile or electronically transmitted signature. 

If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time a Note is authenticated, the Note will nevertheless be
valid. 
 A Note will not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee. The signature will be conclusive evidence
that the Note has been authenticated under this Indenture. 
 The Trustee will, upon receipt of a written order of the Issuers signed by an
Officer of each Issuer (an “Authentication Order”), authenticate Notes for original issue (i) on the date hereof as Initial Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $400.0 million and (ii) thereafter any Additional Notes
that may be validly issued under this Indenture. The aggregate principal amount of Notes outstanding at any time may not exceed the aggregate principal amount of Notes authorized for issuance by the Issuers pursuant to one or more Authentication
Orders, except as provided in Section 2.07 hereof. 
 The Trustee shall also authenticate and deliver Notes at the times and in the
manner specified in Section 2.06, Section 2.07, Section 2.10, Section 3.06, Section 3.09, Section 4.15 and Section 9.04. 

With respect to any Additional Notes, the Issuers shall set forth in an Officers’ Certificate, a copy of which shall be delivered to the
Trustee at or prior to original issuance thereof, the following information: 
 (a)    the aggregate principal amount of
such Additional Notes to be authenticated and delivered pursuant to this Indenture; 
 (b)    the issue price, the issue
date (and the corresponding date from which interest shall accrue thereon and the first interest payment date therefor) and the CUSIP and/or ISIN number of such Additional Notes; and 

(c)    whether such Additional Notes shall be subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 2.06
relating to Restricted Global Notes and Restricted Definitive Notes. 
 The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the
Issuers to authenticate Notes. An authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the
same rights as an Agent to deal with Holders or an Affiliate of the Company. 

  
 35 

 Section 2.03    Registrar and Paying Agent. 

The Issuers will maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange
(“Registrar”) and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (“Paying Agent”). The Registrar will keep a register of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange. The Issuers may appoint one or
more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar and the term “Paying Agent” includes any
additional paying agent. The Issuers may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Issuers will notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Issuers fail to
appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. The Issuers or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar. 

The Issuers initially appoint The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) to act as Depositary with respect to the Global Notes.

 The Issuers initially appoint the Trustee to act as the Registrar and Paying Agent (at its office in New York, New York indicated in the
definition of Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in Section 1.01 hereof) and to act as Custodian with respect to the Global Notes. 

Section 2.04    Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. 

The Issuers will require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust for the benefit
of Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of, premium, if any, on, and interest, if any, on, the Notes, and will notify the Trustee of any default by the Issuers in making any such payment. While any
such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Issuers at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying
Agent (if other than the Issuers or a Subsidiary) will have no further liability for the money. If the Issuers or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it will segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by
it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Issuers, the Trustee will serve as Paying Agent for the Notes. 

Section 2.05    Holder Lists. 

The Trustee will 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 and shall otherwise comply with TIA §312(a). If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuers will furnish to the Trustee at least seven Business Days before each interest payment date and at such other times as the Trustee may
request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Holders of the Notes and the Issuers shall otherwise comply with TIA §312(a). 

  
 36 

 Section 2.06    Transfer and Exchange. 

(a)    Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes. A Global Note may not be transferred except as a whole by the
Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary, by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or to another nominee of the Depositary, or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary. All
Global Notes will be exchanged by the Issuers for Definitive Notes if: 
 (1)    the Depositary notifies
the Issuers (A) that it is unwilling or unable to continue to act as Depositary or (B) that it is no longer a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and, in either case, a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Issuers
within 90 days after the date of such notice from the Depositary; 
 (2)    the Issuers, at their option
but subject to the Depositary’s requirements, notify the Trustee in writing that they elect to cause the issuance of the Definitive Notes; provided that in no event shall the Regulation S Temporary Global Note be exchanged by the Issuers
for Definitive Notes prior to (A) the expiration of the Restricted Period and (B) the receipt by the Registrar of any certificates required pursuant to Rule 903(b)(3)(ii)(B) under the Securities Act; or 

(3)    there has occurred and is continuing an Event of Default and the Depositary notifies the Trustee of
its decision to exchange such Global Note for Definitive Notes. 
 Upon the occurrence of the preceding events in (1), (2) or
(3) above, Definitive Notes shall be issued in such names as the Depositary shall instruct the Trustee. Global Notes also may be exchanged or replaced, in whole or in part, as provided in Sections 2.07 and 2.10 hereof. Every Note authenticated
and delivered in exchange for, or in lieu of, a Global Note or any portion thereof, pursuant to this Section 2.06 or Section 2.07 or 2.10 hereof, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Note. A Global
Note may not be exchanged for another Note other than as provided in this Section 2.06(a); however, beneficial interests in a Global Note may be transferred and exchanged as provided in Section 2.06(b) or (c) hereof. Whenever any
provision herein refers to issuance by the Issuers and authentication and delivery by the Trustee of a new Note in exchange for the portion of a surrendered Note that has not been redeemed or repurchased, as the case may be, in lieu of the surrender
of any Global Note and the issuance, authentication and delivery of a new Global Note in exchange therefor, the Trustee or the Depositary at the direction of the Trustee may endorse such Global Note to reflect a reduction in the principal amount
represented thereby in the amount of Notes so represented that have been so redeemed or repurchased. 

(b)    Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in the Global Notes. The transfer and exchange of beneficial
interests in the Global Notes will be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture and the Applicable Procedures. Participants and Indirect Participants shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect
to any Global Note held on their behalf by the Depositary or by the Trustee as the Custodian with respect to the Global Notes, and the Issuers, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuers or the Trustee shall be entitled to treat the Depositary as the
absolute owner of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Issuers, the Trustee or any agent 

  
 37 

 
of the Issuers or the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary or impair, as between the Depositary and its Participants
or the Indirect Participants, the operation of customary practices of such Depositary governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of a beneficial interest in any Global Note. Subject to the provisions of this Section 2.06 and
Section 12.16, the Holder of a Global Note shall be entitled to grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Participants and Indirect Participants and Persons that may hold interests through such Persons, to take any action that
a Holder is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Notes. Beneficial interests in the Restricted Global Notes will be subject to restrictions on transfer comparable to those set forth herein to the extent required by the Securities Act. Except
for the transfer of beneficial interests in the Regulation S Temporary Global Note for beneficial interests in the Regulation S Permanent Global Note as provided in Section 2.01(c), transfers of beneficial interests in the Global Notes also
will require compliance with either subparagraph (1) or (2) below, as applicable, as well as one or more of the other following subparagraphs, as applicable: 

(1)    Transfer of Beneficial Interests in the Same Global Note. Beneficial interests in any
Restricted Global Note may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the same Restricted Global Note in accordance with the transfer restrictions set forth in the Private Placement Legend;
provided, however, that prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period, transfers of beneficial interests in the Regulation S Temporary Global Note may not be made to a U.S. Person
or for the account or benefit of a U.S. Person (other than an Initial Purchaser). Beneficial interests in any Unrestricted Global Note may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted
Global Note. No written orders or instructions shall be required to be delivered to the Registrar to effect the transfers described in this Section 2.06(b)(1). 

(2)    All Other Transfers and Exchanges of Beneficial Interests in Global Notes. In connection with
all transfers and exchanges of beneficial interests that are not subject to Section 2.06(b)(1) above, the transferor of such beneficial interest must deliver to the Registrar either: 

(A)    both: 

(i)    a written order from a Participant or an Indirect Participant given to the Depositary in accordance
with the Applicable Procedures directing the Depositary to credit or cause to be credited a beneficial interest in another Global Note in an amount equal to the beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged; and 

(ii)    instructions given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures containing information regarding
the Participant account to be credited with such increase; or 

  
 38 

 (B)    both: 

(i)    a written order from a Participant or an Indirect Participant given to the Depositary in accordance
with the Applicable Procedures directing the Depositary to cause to be issued a Definitive Note in an amount equal to the beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged; and 

(ii)    instructions given by the Depositary to the Registrar containing information regarding the Person
in whose name such Definitive Note shall be registered to effect the transfer or exchange referred to in (1) above; 
 provided
that in no event shall Definitive Notes be issued upon the transfer or exchange of beneficial interests in the Regulation S Temporary Global Note prior to (A) the expiration of the Restricted Period and (B) the receipt by the Registrar of
any certificates required pursuant to Rule 903(b)(3)(ii)(B) under the Securities Act. 
 Upon satisfaction of all of the requirements for
transfer or exchange of beneficial interests in Global Notes contained in this Indenture and the Notes or otherwise applicable under the Securities Act, the Trustee shall adjust the principal amount of the relevant Global Note(s) pursuant to
Section 2.06(h) hereof. 
 (3)    Transfer of Beneficial Interests in a Restricted Global Note

Global Note have been exchanged for beneficial interests in another Global Note or Definitive Notes, or a particular Global Note has been redeemed, repurchased or canceled in whole and not in part, each such Global Note will be returned to or
retained and canceled by the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.11 hereof. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the
form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note or for Definitive Notes, the principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note will be reduced accordingly and an endorsement will be made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by the

other Global Note will be increased accordingly and an endorsement will be made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by the Depositary at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such increase. 

(i)    General Provisions Relating to Transfers and Exchanges. 

(1)    To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Issuers will execute and the Trustee will
authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02 hereof or at the Registrar’s request.

or similar governmental charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 2.10, 3.06, 3.09, 4.10, 4.15 and 9.04 hereof). 

(3)    All Global Notes and Definitive Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Global
Notes or Definitive Notes will be the valid obligations of the Issuers, 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. 
 (4)    Neither the Registrar nor the Issuers will 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 hereof and ending at the close of business on the day of selection; 

(B)    to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part,
except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part; or 

  
 48 

 (C)    to register the transfer of or to exchange a Note
between a record date and the next succeeding interest payment date. 
 (5)    Prior to due presentment
for the registration of a transfer of any Note, the Trustee, any Agent and the Issuers may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and
interest on such Notes and for all other purposes, and none of the Trustee, any Agent or the Issuers shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 

(6)    The Trustee will authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes in accordance with the provisions of
Section 2.02 hereof. 
 (7)    All certifications, certificates and Opinions of Counsel required to
be submitted to the Registrar pursuant to this Section 2.06 to effect a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted by facsimile or electronic image scan. 

Section 2.07    Replacement Notes. 

If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or the Issuers and the Trustee and the Issuers receive evidence to their satisfaction of
the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, and such other reasonable requirements as may be imposed by the Issuers as permitted by Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code have been satisfied, then,
in the absence of notice to the Issuers or the Trustee that such Note has been acquired by a “protected purchaser” within the meaning of Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code, the Issuers
will issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, will authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements are met. If required by the Trustee or the Issuers, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is
sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Issuers to protect the Issuers, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Issuers may charge for their expenses in
replacing a Note. 
 Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Issuers and will be entitled to all of the benefits of this
Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder. 
 Section 2.08    Outstanding
Notes. 
 The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those
delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding. Except as set forth in
Section 2.09 hereof, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuers or an Affiliate of the Issuers holds the Note; however, Notes held by the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company shall not be deemed to be outstanding for purposes
of Section 3.07(a) hereof. 
 If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding unless the
Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser within the meaning of Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code. 

  
 49 

 If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.01 hereof, it
ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue. 
 If the Paying Agent (other than the Issuers, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate
of any thereof) holds, by 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time on a redemption date or other maturity date, money sufficient to pay Notes payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes will be deemed to be no longer outstanding and will cease to
accrue interest. 
 Section 2.09    Treasury Notes. 

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

Section 2.10    Temporary Notes. 

Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuers may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order,
will authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes will be substantially in the form of certificated Notes but may have variations that the Issuers consider appropriate for temporary Notes and as may be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without
unreasonable delay, the Issuers will prepare and the Trustee will authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes. 
 Holders
of temporary Notes will be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture. 

Section 2.11    Cancellation. 

The Issuers at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and Paying Agent will forward to the Trustee any Notes
surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else will cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and will destroy canceled Notes
(subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act). Certification of the destruction of all canceled Notes will be delivered to the Issuers. The Issuers may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been
delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 
 Section 2.12    Defaulted Interest. 

If the Issuers default in a payment of interest on the Notes, they will pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent
lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof, provided that no special record date shall be
required with respect to defaulted interest paid within the applicable grace period. The Issuers will notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment. The
Issuers will fix or cause to be fixed each such special 

  
 50 

 
record date and payment date; provided that no such special record date may be less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted interest. At least 15 days before the
special record date, the Issuers (or, upon the written request of the Issuers, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuers) will mail or cause to be mailed to Holders a notice that states the special record date, the related payment
date and the amount of such interest to be paid. 
 Section 2.13    Computation of Interest. 

Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

(d)    the redemption price (if then determined and otherwise the method of determination). 

Section 3.02    Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed. 

If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee will select Notes for redemption on a pro rata basis (or, in
the case of Notes issued in global form pursuant to Article 2 hereof, by such method as DTC or its nominee or successor may require or, where such nominee or successor is the Trustee, a method that most nearly approximates pro rata selection
as the Trustee deems fair and appropriate unless otherwise required by law) unless otherwise required by law or applicable stock exchange or depositary requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Notes of $2,000 or less can be redeemed in part.

 In the event of partial redemption by lot, the particular Notes to be redeemed will be selected, unless otherwise provided herein, not
less than 10 nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date by the Trustee from the outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption. 

  
 51 

 The Trustee will promptly notify the Issuers in writing of the Notes selected for redemption
and, in the case of any Note selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. Notes and portions of Notes selected will 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 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 3.03    Notice of Redemption. 

At least 10 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, the Issuers will mail or cause to be mailed by first class mail (or sent
electronically if DTC is the recipient) a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be given more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued
in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Article 8 or 11 hereof. 
 The
notice will state: 
 (a)    the redemption date; 

(b)    the redemption price (if then determined and otherwise the method of determination); 

(c)    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 will be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Note; 

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

(e)    that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price; 

(f)    that, unless the Issuers default in making such redemption payment, interest on Notes called for redemption ceases
to accrue on and after the redemption date; 
 (g)    the paragraph of the Notes and/or Section of this Indenture
pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed; 
 (h)    that no representation is made as to the
correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes; and 
 (i)    any
conditions precedent to the redemption. 
 At the Issuers’ request, the Trustee will give the notice of redemption in the Issuers’
names and at the Issuers’ expense; provided, however, that the Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.01 hereof requests that the Trustee give such notice and sets forth the information to be
stated in such notice as provided in the preceding paragraph. 

  
 52 

 If such redemption is subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, the
related notice shall describe each such condition, and if applicable, shall state that, in the Company’s discretion, the date of redemption may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied or waived (provided that
in no event shall such date of redemption be delayed to a date later than 60 days after the date on which such notice was sent), or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not
have been satisfied or waived by the date of redemption, or by the date of redemption as so delayed. The Issuers shall provide written notice of the delay of such date of redemption or the rescission of such notice of redemption to the Trustee no
later than 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the date of redemption. Upon receipt of such notice of the delay of such date of redemption or the rescission of such notice of redemption, such date of redemption shall be automatically delayed or such notice
of redemption shall be automatically rescinded, as applicable, and the redemption of the Notes to be redeemed shall be automatically delayed or rescinded and cancelled, as applicable, as provided in such notice. 

Section 3.04    Effect of Notice of Redemption. 

Once notice of redemption is mailed or given in accordance with Section 3.03 hereof, Notes called for redemption will become irrevocably
due and payable (subject to Section 3.03) on the redemption date at the redemption price, subject to satisfaction of any condition specified with respect to such redemption. 

Section 3.05    Deposit of Redemption Price. 

No later than 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the redemption date, the Issuers will deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent money
sufficient to pay the redemption price of, and accrued interest, if any, on all Notes to be redeemed on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent will promptly return to the Issuers any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the
Issuers in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption price of, and accrued interest, if any, on all Notes to be redeemed. 
 If
the Issuers comply with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on and after the redemption date, interest will 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, if any, shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such record date. If any Note called for redemption is
not so paid upon surrender for redemption because of the failure of the Issuers 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 hereof. 

  
 53 

 Section 3.06    Notes Redeemed in Part. 

Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed in part, the Issuers will issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, the Trustee will
authenticate for the Holder at the expense of the Issuers a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Note surrendered. 

Section 3.07    Optional Redemption. 

(a)    At any time prior to February 15, 2023, the Issuers may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 40% of the
aggregate principal amount of Notes issued under this Indenture, upon notice as provided in this Indenture, at a redemption price equal to 104.125% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date

(b)    At any time prior to February 15, 2023, the Issuers may on any one or more occasions redeem all or a part of
the Notes, upon notice as provided in this Indenture, at a redemption price equal to: 
 (1)    100% of
the principal amount thereof, plus 
 (2)    the Applicable Premium as of the redemption date, plus
accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date (subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date). 

(c)    The Issuers may redeem the Notes when permitted by, and pursuant to the conditions in, Section 4.15(e) hereof.

 (d)    Except pursuant to Section 3.07(a), (b) or (c), the Notes will not be redeemable at the Issuers’

 (f)    Any redemption pursuant to this Section 3.07 shall be made pursuant to the
provisions of Sections 3.01 through 3.06 hereof. 
 Section 3.08    Mandatory Redemption. 

The Issuers are not required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes. 

Section 3.09    Offer to Purchase by Application of Excess Proceeds. 

In the event that, pursuant to Section 4.10 hereof, the Company is required to commence an Asset Sale Offer to all Holders to purchase
Notes, it will follow the procedures specified below. 
 The Asset Sale Offer shall be made to all Holders and all holders of other
Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes containing provisions similar to those set forth in this Indenture with respect to offers to purchase, prepay or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets. The Asset Sale Offer will remain open
for a period of at least 20 Business Days following its commencement and not more than 30 Business Days, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the “Offer Period”). No later than three Business Days
after the termination of the Offer Period (the “Purchase Date”), the Company will apply all Excess Proceeds (the “Offer Amount”) to the purchase of Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness (on a pro
rata basis based on the principal amount of Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness surrendered, if applicable) or, if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes and other Indebtedness tendered in response to the Asset
Sale Offer. 
 If the 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 additional interest will be payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. 

Upon the commencement of an Asset Sale Offer, the Company will send, by first class mail, a notice to the Trustee and each of the Holders,
with a copy to the Trustee. The notice will contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. The notice, which will govern the terms of the Asset Sale Offer, will state: 

(a)    that the Asset Sale Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 3.09 and Section 4.10 hereof and the
length of time the Asset Sale Offer will remain open; 
 (b)    the Offer Amount, the purchase price and the Purchase
Date; 
 (c)    that any Note not tendered or accepted for payment will continue to accrue interest; 

  
 55 

 (d)    that, unless the Company defaults in making such payment, any
Note accepted for payment pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer will cease to accrue interest on and after the Purchase Date; 

(e)    that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer may elect to have Notes purchased in
minimum denominations of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof; 
 (f)    that Holders electing to
have Notes purchased pursuant to any Asset Sale Offer will be required to surrender the Note, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to the Notes completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Company,
a depositary, if appointed by the Company, or a Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice at least three days before the Purchase Date; 

(g)    that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their election if the Company, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the
case may be, receives, not later than the expiration of the Offer Period, a telegram, electronic image scan, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Note the Holder delivered for purchase
and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Note purchased; 
 (h)    that, if the
aggregate principal amount of Notes surrendered by Holders thereof exceeds the Offer Amount allocated to the purchase of Notes in the Asset Sale Offer, the Trustee will select the Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a
pro rata basis (except that any Notes represented by a Global Note shall be selected by such method as DTC or its nominee or successor may require or, where such nominee or successor is the Trustee, a method that most nearly approximates
pro rata selection as the Trustee deems fair and appropriate unless otherwise required by law) based on the principal amount of Notes surrendered (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Company so that only Notes in minimum
denominations of $2,000, or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, will be purchased); and 
 (i)    that
Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part will be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered (or transferred by book-entry transfer). 

On or before the Purchase Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a pro rata basis to the extent
necessary, the Notes or portions thereof tendered pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer and required to be purchased pursuant to this Section 3.09 and Section 4.10 hereof, or if Notes in an aggregate principal amount less than the Offer Amount
allocated to the purchase of Notes in the Asset Sale Offer have been tendered, all Notes tendered, and will deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with 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 3.09. The Company, the depositary for the Asset Sale Offer or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, will promptly (but in any case
not later than five days after the Purchase Date) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes tendered by such Holder and accepted by the Company for purchase (or, if such Notes are then in global
form, it will make such payment thereon through the facilities 

  
 56 

 
of DTC), and the Issuers will promptly issue a new Note, and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02, the Trustee, upon the written request of the Issuers,
will authenticate and mail or deliver (or cause to be transferred by book entry) such new Note to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered. Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or
delivered by the Company to the Holder thereof. The Company will publicly announce the results of the Asset Sale Offer on the Purchase Date. 

ARTICLE 4 
 COVENANTS

 Section 4.01    Payment of Notes. 

The Issuers will pay or cause to be paid the principal of, premium, if any, on, and interest, if any, on, the Notes on the dates and in the
manner provided in the Notes. Principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, will be considered paid on the date due if the Paying Agent, if other than the Issuers or a Subsidiary of the Company, holds as of 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the due
date money deposited by the Issuers in immediately available funds and designated for and sufficient to pay all principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, then due. 

The Issuers will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal at a rate
that is equal to the then applicable interest rate on the Notes to the extent lawful; it will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest, if any (without regard to
any applicable grace period), at the same rate to the extent lawful. 
 The Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining
satisfaction and discharge with respect to the Notes or for any other purpose, pay, or direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same terms
as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money. 

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 on its request, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged
from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof,
shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, shall, at the expense of the Company, cause to be published once, in The New York Times or The Wall Street
Journal (national edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be
repaid to the Company.

 Section 4.02    Maintenance of Office or Agency. 

The Issuers will maintain, an office or agency (which may be an office of the Trustee or an affiliate of the Trustee) where Notes may be
surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange. If the Definitive Notes are issued and outstanding, such office must be in the City and State of New York. The Issuers initially designate the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee for such
purposes. The Issuers will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Issuers fail to maintain any such required office or agency or fail to furnish the
Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations and surrenders may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee. 

The Issuers may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any
or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission will in any manner relieve the Issuers of their obligation to maintain an office or agency in the City and
State of New York for such purposes if required. The Issuers will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency. 

With respect to any Global Notes, the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee shall be the office or agency where such Global Notes may be
presented or surrendered for payment or for registration of transfer or exchange, or where successor Notes may be delivered in exchange therefor; provided, however, that any such presentation, surrender or delivery effected pursuant to the
Applicable Procedures of the Depositary shall be deemed to have been effected at such office or agency in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture. 

Section 4.03    Reports. 

(a)    So long as any Notes are outstanding, the Company will furnish to the Holders of the Notes or the Trustee: 

(1)    no later than 90 days after the end of each fiscal year, (a) audited financial statements

Company or a Restricted Subsidiary into an agreement outside the ordinary course of business that is material to the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, any material amendment thereto
or termination of any such agreement other than in accordance with its terms (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, employee compensatory or benefit agreements or plans), (ii) completion of a merger of the Company with or into another Person or a
material acquisition or disposition of assets by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary outside the ordinary course of business, (iii) the institution of, or material development under, bankruptcy proceedings under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or

than under a Credit Facility or other arrangement which has been described in the Offering Circular or borrowings under a Credit Facility that has otherwise been disclosed previously), or a triggering event that causes the increase or acceleration
of any such obligation and, in any such case, the consequences thereof are material to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary. 

(b)    The requirements of Section 4.03(a) may be satisfied by the filing with the SEC for public availability by
Parent, the Company or a Subsidiary of either of the foregoing of (i) any Annual Report on Form 10-K, (ii) a Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or (iii) a
Current Report on Form 8-K, containing the information required by Section 4.03(a) or part thereof with respect to the Company or Parent, as applicable, provided that any such financial information of
Parent contains information reasonably sufficient to identify the material differences, if any, between the financial information of Parent, on the one hand, and the Company and its Subsidiaries on a stand-alone basis, on the other hand. 

(c)    For the avoidance of doubt, the information provided pursuant to Section 4.03(a) (i) will not be required
to contain the separate financial information for Guarantors as contemplated by Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X or any financial statements of unconsolidated subsidiaries or
50% or less owned persons as contemplated by Rule 3-09 of Regulation S-X or any schedules required by Regulation S-X, or in each

as contemplated by this covenant (but without regard to the date on which such information or report is so furnished); provided that such cure shall not otherwise affect the rights of the Holders in Section 6.01 if the principal of, premium, if
any, on, and interest, if any, on, the Notes have been accelerated in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and such acceleration has not been rescinded or cancelled prior to such cure. 

(e)    The Company will hold and participate in conference calls with the Holders of the Notes, beneficial owners of the
Notes, bona fide prospective investors, securities analysts and market makers to discuss the financial information required to be furnished pursuant to Section 4.03(a)(1) and Section 4.03(a)(2) no later than ten Business Days after
distribution of such financial information, unless, in each case, the Company reasonably determines that to do so would 

  
 59 

 
conflict with applicable securities laws, including in connection with any pending offering of securities. The Company shall be permitted to combine this conference call with any other conference
call for other debt or equity holders or lenders. The Company shall, no later than three Business Days prior to the date of the conference calls required to be held in accordance with this paragraph, announce the date and time of such conference
calls and all information necessary to enable Holders of Notes and security analysts to obtain access to such calls. 

(f)    So long as any Notes are outstanding, the Company will also maintain a website to which Holders, prospective
investors, broker-dealers and securities analysts are given access (which may be password protected) and to which all of the reports required by this Section 4.03 are posted, unless they are otherwise publicly filed with the SEC. 

(g)    The Company shall furnish to the Holders and Beneficial Owners of the Notes, prospective investors, broker-dealers

(h)    Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only, and the
Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute actual or constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder
(as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates). The Trustee shall not be obligated to monitor or confirm, on a continuing basis or otherwise, the Company’s compliance with this covenant and shall have
no responsibility to determine whether any reports, information or documents have been filed with the SEC via the EDGAR (or successor) filing system, made available electronically or posted on any website. 

Section 4.04    Compliance Certificate. 

(a)    The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year ending after the date of
this Indenture, an Officers’ Certificate stating that a review of the activities of the Company and its Subsidiaries during the preceding fiscal year has been made under the supervision of the signing Officers with a view to determining whether
the Issuers have kept, observed, performed and fulfilled their obligations under this Indenture, and further stating, as to each such Officer signing such certificate, that to the best of his or her knowledge the Issuers have kept, observed,
performed and fulfilled each and every covenant contained in this Indenture and are not in default in the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture (or, if a Default or Event of Default has occurred,

The Company will pay, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to pay, prior to delinquency, all material taxes, assessments, and governmental

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

except a payment of interest or principal at or within one year of the Stated Maturity thereof; or 

(4)    make any Restricted Investment (all such payments and other actions set forth in clauses
(1) through (4) of this Section 4.07(a) being collectively referred to as “Restricted Payments”), 

  
 61 

 unless, at the time of and after giving effect to such Restricted Payment: 

(A)    no Note Payment Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur as a
consequence of such Restricted Payment; 
 (B)    the Company would, at the time of such Restricted
Payment and after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Restricted Payment had been made at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, have been permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge
Coverage Ratio test set forth in Section 4.09(a) hereof; and 
 (C)    such Restricted Payment,
together with the aggregate amount of all other Restricted Payments made by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries since February 5, 2014 (excluding Restricted Payments permitted by clauses (2) through (12) of Section 4.07(b)),
is less than the sum, without duplication, of: 
 (i)    50% of the Consolidated Net Income of the
Company for the period (taken as one accounting period) from January 1, 2014 to the end of the Company’s most recently ended fiscal quarter for which internal financial statements are available at the time of such Restricted Payment (or,
if such Consolidated Net Income for such period is a deficit, less 100% of such deficit); plus 

(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, other than the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company, engaged primarily in the Oil and Gas Business or assets used in the Oil and Gas Business), in each case received by the Company since
February 5, 2014 as a contribution to its common equity capital or from the issue or sale of Equity Interests of the Company (other than (x) Disqualified Stock and (y) net cash proceeds received from an issuance or sale of such Equity

financed, directly or indirectly, using funds borrowed from the Company or any Subsidiary), together with the net proceeds, if any, received by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries upon such conversion or exchange; plus

as of the date on which such Subsidiary was originally designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary after February 5, 2014; plus 

(vi)    any dividends or distributions received in cash by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the
Company after February 5, 2014 from an Unrestricted Subsidiary of the Company, to the extent that such dividends or distributions were not otherwise included in the Consolidated Net Income of the Company for such period. 

(b)    The provisions of Section 4.07(a) hereof will not prohibit: 

(1)    the payment of any dividend or distribution or the consummation of any irrevocable redemption within

or with Excluded Contributions or with the net cash proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale (other than to a Subsidiary of the Company) of, Equity Interests of the Company (other than Disqualified Stock) or any direct or indirect parent or

 63 

 (3)    the payment of any dividend or distribution by a

(5)    repurchases of Indebtedness of the Company or any Guarantor that is contractually subordinated in
right of payment to the Notes or a Note Guarantee at a purchase price not greater than (i) 101% of the principal amount of such subordinated Indebtedness in the event of a Change of Control or (ii) 100% of the principal amount of such subordinated
Indebtedness in the event of an Asset Sale, in each case plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, to the extent required by the terms of such Indebtedness, but only if: 

(A)    in the case of a Change of Control, the Company has first complied with and fully satisfied its
obligations under the provisions described in Section 4.15; or 
 (B)    in the case of an Asset
Sale, the Company has complied with and fully satisfied its obligations in accordance with the covenant in Section 4.10;

(7)    the repurchase of Equity Interests deemed to occur upon the exercise of stock or other equity

by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to the Restricted Payment. For purposes of determining compliance with the foregoing covenant, in the event that a Restricted Payment meets the criteria of more than one of
the categories of Restricted Payments described in Section 4.07(b)(1) through (12), or is permitted pursuant to Section 4.07(a), the Company will be permitted to classify (or later classify or reclassify in whole or in part in its sole
discretion) such Restricted Payment or other such transaction (or portion thereof) on the date made or later reclassify such Restricted Payment or other such transaction (or portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this Section 4.07.

 Section 4.08    Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries. 

(a)    The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or
permit to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to: 

(1)    pay dividends or make any other distributions on its Capital Stock to the Company or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries, or with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits, or pay any Indebtedness owed to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided that the priority that any series of
Preferred Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary has in receiving dividends, distributions or liquidating distributions before dividends, distributions or liquidating distributions are paid in respect of common stock of such Restricted Subsidiary shall
not constitute a restriction on the ability to make dividends or distributions on Capital Stock for purposes of this Section 4.08; 

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

  
 65 

 (3)    sell, lease or transfer any of its properties or
assets to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries. 
 (b)    The restrictions in Section 4.08(a) hereof

 (1)    agreements
governing Existing Indebtedness and the Credit Agreement as in effect on the date of this Indenture and any amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of those agreements; provided
that the encumbrances or restrictions contained in the amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings are not in the good faith judgment of an Officer of the Company materially more
restrictive, taken as a whole, with respect to such dividend and other payment restrictions than those contained in those agreements on the date of this Indenture; 

(2)    this Indenture, the Notes and the Note Guarantees; 

(3)    agreements governing other Indebtedness permitted to be incurred under the provisions of
Section 4.09 hereof and any amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of those agreements; provided that the encumbrances or restrictions contained therein are in the
reasonable good faith judgment of an Officer of the Company, either (a) not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in this Indenture, the Notes and the Note Guarantees or the Credit Agreement as in effect on the
date of this Indenture or (b) not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Company to make required payments on the Notes; 

(4)    applicable law, rule, regulation or order; 

(5)    any instrument governing Indebtedness or Capital Stock of a Person acquired by the Company or any of
its Restricted Subsidiaries as in effect at the time of such acquisition (except to the extent such Indebtedness or Capital Stock was incurred in connection with or in contemplation of such acquisition), which encumbrance or restriction is not
applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person, or the property or assets of the Person, so acquired, and any amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, extensions, supplements, increases,
refundings, replacements or refinancings thereof; provided, that the encumbrances and restrictions in any such amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, extensions, supplements, increases, refundings, replacements or refinancings
are, in the reasonable good faith judgment of an Officer of the Company, no more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those in effect on the date of the acquisition; provided further, that, in the case of Indebtedness, such Indebtedness was
permitted by the terms of this Indenture to be incurred; 

  
 66 

 (6)    customary
non-assignment provisions in Hydrocarbon purchase and sale or exchange agreements or similar operational agreements or in licenses, easements or leases, in each case, entered into in the ordinary course of
business; 
 (7)    purchase money obligations for property acquired in the ordinary course of business
and Finance Lease Obligations that impose restrictions on the property purchased or leased of the nature described in clause (3) of Section 4.08(a); 

(8)    any agreement for the sale or other disposition of a Restricted Subsidiary that restricts
distributions by that Restricted Subsidiary pending its sale or other disposition; 
 (9)    Permitted
Refinancing Indebtedness; provided that the restrictions contained in the agreements governing such Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness are, in the reasonable good faith judgment of an Officer of the Company, not materially more restrictive,
taken as a whole, than those contained in the agreements governing the Indebtedness being refinanced; 

(10)    Liens permitted to be incurred under the provisions of Section 4.12 that limit the right of
the debtor to dispose of the assets subject to such Liens; 
 (11)    provisions limiting the disposition
or distribution of assets or property in joint venture agreements, asset sale agreements, sale-leaseback agreements, stock sale agreements and other similar agreements (including agreements entered into in connection with a Restricted Investment)
entered into with the approval of the Company’s Board of Directors, which limitation is applicable only to the assets that are the subject of such agreements; 

(12)    encumbrances or restrictions applicable only to a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Domestic
Subsidiary; 
 (13)    encumbrances or restrictions on cash or other deposits or net worth imposed by
customers or lessors under contracts or leases entered into in the ordinary course of business; 

(14)    customary encumbrances and restrictions contained in agreements of the types described in the
definition of Permitted Business Investments; 
 (15)    agreements governing Hedging Obligations

 (16)    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 or 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 does 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. 

  
 67 

 In each case set forth above, notwithstanding any stated limitation on the assets or
property that may be subject to such encumbrance or restriction, an encumbrance or restriction on a specified asset or property or group or type of assets or property may also apply to all improvements, additions, repairs, attachments or accessions
thereto, assets and property affixed or appurtenant thereto, parts, replacements and substitutions therefor, and all products and proceeds thereof, including dividends, distributions, interest and increases in respect thereof. 

Section 4.09    Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock. 

(a)    The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create,
incur, issue, assume, Guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect to (collectively, “incur”) any Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), and the Company will not issue any
Disqualified Stock and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to issue any Preferred Stock; provided, however, that the Issuers may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) or issue Disqualified Stock, and any Restricted
Subsidiary may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) or issue Preferred Stock, if the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the Company’s most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available
immediately preceding the date on which such additional Indebtedness is incurred or such Disqualified Stock or such Preferred Stock is issued, as the case may be, would have been at least 2.0 to 1.0, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro
forma application of the net proceeds therefrom), as if the additional Indebtedness had been incurred or the Disqualified Stock or the Preferred Stock had been issued, as the case may be, at the beginning of such four-quarter period. 

(b)    Section 4.09(a) will not prohibit the incurrence of any of the following items of Indebtedness or issuances of
Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, as applicable (collectively, “Permitted Debt”): 

(1)    the incurrence by the Issuers and the Restricted Subsidiaries, of Indebtedness and letters of credit
under Credit Facilities in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding under this clause (1) (with letters of credit being deemed to have a principal amount equal to the maximum potential liability of the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries thereunder) not to exceed the greatest of (i) $2.0 billion, (ii) the Borrowing Base in effect under the Credit Agreement at such time, and (iii) 35.0% of the Company’s Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets determined
on the date of such incurrence; 
 (2)    the incurrence by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries
of the Existing Indebtedness; 
 (3)    the incurrence by the Issuers and the Guarantors of Indebtedness
represented by the Notes to be issued on the date of this Indenture and the related Note Guarantees; 

(4)    the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness represented by
Finance Lease Obligations, mortgage financings or purchase money obligations, in each case, incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the 

  
 68 

 
purchase price or cost of design, construction, installation or improvement of property, plant or equipment used in the business of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, in an
aggregate principal amount outstanding, including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to renew, refund, refinance, replace, defease or discharge any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (4), not to exceed the greater of (i)
$250.0 million and (ii) 3.0% of the Company’s Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets determined as of the date of such incurrence or issuance; 

(5)    the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Permitted Refinancing
Indebtedness in exchange for, or the net proceeds of which are used to renew, refund, refinance, replace, defease or discharge any Indebtedness (other than intercompany Indebtedness) of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any
Disqualified Stock of the Company, in each case that was permitted by this Indenture to be incurred under Section 4.09(a) or clauses (2), (3), (4), (5), (14) or (15) of this Section 4.09(b); 

(6)    the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of intercompany Indebtedness
between or among the Company and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, however, that: 

(A)    if the Company or any Guarantor is the obligor on such Indebtedness and the payee is not the Company
or a Guarantor, such Indebtedness must be unsecured and expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all Obligations then due with respect to the Notes, in the case of the Company, or the Note Guarantee, in the case of a Guarantor;
and 
 (B)    (i) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that 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 that is not either the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the
Company, will be deemed, in each case, to constitute an incurrence of such Indebtedness by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, that was not permitted by this clause (6); 

(7)    the issuance by any of the Company’s Restricted Subsidiaries to the Company or to any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries of any Preferred Stock; provided, however, that: 
 (A)    any subsequent
issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that results in any such Preferred Stock being held by a Person other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company; and 

(B)    any sale or other transfer of any such Preferred Stock to a Person that is not either the Company or
a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, will be deemed, in each case, to constitute an issuance of such Preferred Stock by such Restricted Subsidiary that was not permitted by this clause (7); 

  
 69 

 (8)    the incurrence by the Company or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries of Hedging Obligations; 
 (9)    the Guarantee by the Company or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company to the extent that the guaranteed Indebtedness was permitted to be incurred by another provision of this Section 4.09; provided that if the
Indebtedness being guaranteed is subordinated to or pari passu with the Notes, then the Guarantee must be subordinated or pari passu, as applicable, to the same extent as the Indebtedness guaranteed; 

(10)    the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness in respect of
self-insurance obligations or bid, plugging and abandonment, 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 workers’ compensation claims in the ordinary course of business; 

(11)    the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness arising from
the honoring by a bank or other financial institution of a check, draft or similar instrument inadvertently drawn against insufficient funds, so long as such Indebtedness is covered within five Business Days; 

(12)    the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of in-kind obligations relating to net oil or natural gas balancing positions arising in the ordinary course of business; 

(13)    any obligation arising from agreements of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company
providing for indemnification, adjustment of purchase price, earn outs, or similar obligations, in each case, incurred or assumed in connection with the disposition or acquisition of any business, assets or Capital Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary
in a transaction permitted by this Indenture; provided that such obligation is not reflected as a liability on the face of the balance sheet of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary; 

(14)    any Permitted Acquisition Indebtedness; and 

(15)    the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of additional Indebtedness or
the issuance by the Company of any Disqualified Stock in an aggregate principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) at any time outstanding, including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to renew, refund, refinance, replace,
defease or discharge any Indebtedness incurred or Disqualified Stock issued pursuant to this clause (15), not to exceed the greater of (i) $450.0 million and (ii) 5.0% of the Company’s Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets determined
as of the date of such incurrence or issuance. 
 For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.09, in the event that an
item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (1) through (15) above, or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.09(a), the Company will be permitted to divide,
classify and reclassify such item of Indebtedness on the date 

  
 70 

 
of its incurrence, or later redivide or reclassify all or a portion of such item of Indebtedness, in any manner that complies with this Section 4.09. Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement
outstanding on the date on which Notes are first issued and authenticated under this Indenture will initially be deemed to have been incurred on such date in reliance on the exception provided by clause (1) of the definition of Permitted Debt.

 The accrual of interest or Preferred Stock or Disqualified Stock dividends or distributions, the accretion or amortization of original
issue discount, the payment of interest on any Indebtedness not secured by a Lien in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, the reclassification of Preferred Stock or Disqualified Stock as Indebtedness due to a change in accounting
principles, and the payment of dividends or distributions on Preferred Stock or Disqualified Stock in the form of additional securities of the same class of Preferred Stock or Disqualified Stock will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness
or an issuance of Preferred Stock or Disqualified Stock for purposes of this Section 4.09; provided that the amount thereof shall be included in Fixed Charges of the Company as accrued to the extent required by the definition of such
term. 
 The amount of any Indebtedness outstanding as of any date will be: 

(a)    the accreted value of the Indebtedness, in the case of any Indebtedness issued with original issue discount; 

(b)    the principal amount of the Indebtedness, in the case of any other Indebtedness; and 

(c)    in respect of Indebtedness of another Person secured by a Lien on the assets of the specified Person, the lesser
of: 
 (1)    the Fair Market Value of such assets at the date of determination; and 

(2)    the amount of the Indebtedness of the other Person. 

Section 4.10    Asset Sales. 

The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale unless: 

(a)    the Company (or a Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives consideration at the time of the Asset Sale
at least equal to the Fair Market Value (measured as of the date of the definitive agreement with respect to such Asset Sale) of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of; and 

(b)    at least 75% of the aggregate consideration received in the Asset Sale by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary
and all other Asset Sales since October 17, 2017 is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents. For purposes of this provision, each of the following will be deemed to be cash: 

(1)    any liabilities, as shown on the Company’s most recent consolidated balance sheet, of the
Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent 

  
 71 

 
liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any Note Guarantee) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to a novation or indemnity
agreement that releases the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from or indemnifies the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary against further liability; 

(2)    with respect to any Asset Sale of oil and natural gas properties by the Company or any Restricted
Subsidiary where the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary retains an interest in such property, the costs and expenses of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary related to the exploration, development, completion or production of such properties
and activities related thereto which the transferee (or an Affiliate thereof) agrees to pay; 

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

(4)    any Capital Stock or assets of the kind referred to in clause (2) or (4) of
Section 4.10(c); and 
 (5)    any Designated Non-cash
Consideration received by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary in such Asset Sale having an aggregate Fair Market Value, taken together with all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant
to this clause (e), not to exceed an amount equal to 5.0% of the Company’s Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets (determined at the time of receipt of such Designated Non-cash Consideration), with the
Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Non-cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value. 

(c)    Within 360 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale, the Company (or any Restricted
Subsidiary) may apply such Net Proceeds at its option to any combination of the following: 
 (1)    to
repay, repurchase or redeem any Indebtedness of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, other than (i) Indebtedness of an Issuer or a Guarantor that is subordinated to the Notes or the Note Guarantees, (ii) Capital Stock or
(iii) Indebtedness owed to an Affiliate of the Company; 
 (2)    to acquire all or substantially
all of the assets, or any Capital Stock, of one or more other Persons primarily engaged in the Oil and Gas Business, if, after giving effect to any such acquisition of Capital Stock, such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company; 

(3)    to make capital expenditures in respect of the Company’s or any Restricted Subsidiaries’
Oil and Gas Business; or 
 (4)    to acquire other assets that are not classified as current assets
under GAAP and that are used or useful in the Oil and Gas Business. 

  
 72 

 The requirement of clause (2) or (4) of Section 4.10(c) shall be deemed to be
satisfied if a bona fide binding contract committing to make the investment, acquisition or expenditure referred to therein is entered into by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries with a Person other than an Affiliate of the Company
within the time period specified in the preceding paragraph and such Net Proceeds are subsequently applied in accordance with such contract within 180 days following the date such agreement is entered into. 

Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds, the Company (or any Restricted Subsidiary) may invest the Net Proceeds in any manner that
is not prohibited by this Indenture. 
 Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in
Section 4.10(c) will constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $50.0 million, within five days thereof, the Company will make an offer (an “Asset Sale Offer”) to
all Holders of the Notes and all holders of other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes containing provisions similar to those set forth in this Section 4.10 with respect to offers to purchase, prepay or redeem with the proceeds
of sales of assets to purchase, prepay or redeem, on a pro rata basis, the maximum principal amount of Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness (plus all accrued interest on the Indebtedness and the amount of all fees and
expenses, including premiums, incurred in connection therewith) that may be purchased, prepaid or redeemed out of the Excess Proceeds. The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and
unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase, prepayment or redemption, subject to the rights of Holders of the Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date, and will be payable in cash. If any
Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes tendered
in such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds allocated to the purchase of Notes, the Trustee will select the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis (except that any Notes represented by a Note in global form will be
selected by such method as DTC or its nominee or successor may require or, where such nominee or successor is the Trustee, a method that most nearly approximates pro rata selection as the Trustee deems fair and appropriate unless otherwise
required by law), based on the amounts tendered (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Company so that only Notes in minimum denominations of $2,000, or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, will be purchased). Upon
completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero. 
 The Company will comply with the requirements
of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with each repurchase of Notes pursuant to an
Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with Section 3.09 or this Section 4.10, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed
to have breached its obligations under Section 3.09 or this Section 4.10 by virtue of such compliance. 

  
 73 

 Section 4.11    Transactions with Affiliates. 

(a)    The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell,
lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or Guarantee with, or for the
benefit of, any Affiliate of the Company involving aggregate consideration in any single transaction or series of related transactions in excess of $25.0 million (each, an “Affiliate Transaction”), unless: 

(1)    the Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to the Company or the relevant
Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person or, if in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, no
comparable transaction is available with which to compare such Affiliate Transaction, such Affiliate Transaction is otherwise fair to the Company or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view; and 

(2)    the Company delivers to the Trustee: 

(A)    with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving
aggregate consideration more than $35.0 million, an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions complies with this Section 4.11; and 

(B)    with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving
aggregate consideration in excess of $75.0 million, a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company set forth in an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliated Transactions
complies with this Section 4.11 and that such Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions has been approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of the Company, if any. 

(b)    The following items will not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions and, therefore, will not be subject to the
provisions of Section 4.11(a) hereof: 
 (1)    any employment or consulting agreement, employee
benefit plan, officer or director indemnification, compensation or severance agreement or any similar arrangement entered into by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any direct or indirect parent of the Company in the ordinary
course of business and payments pursuant thereto; 
 (2)    transactions between or among the Company
and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries; 
 (3)    transactions with a Person (other than an Unrestricted
Subsidiary of the Company) that is an Affiliate of the Company solely because the Company owns, directly or through a Restricted Subsidiary, an Equity Interest in, or controls, such Person; 

  
 74 

 (4)    payment of reasonable and customary fees and
reimbursements of expenses (pursuant to indemnity arrangements or otherwise) of officers, directors, employees or consultants of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any direct or indirect parent of the Company; 

(5)    any issuance of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Company to Affiliates of the
Company; 
 (6)    Permitted Investments or Restricted Payments that do not violate the provisions of
Section 4.07 hereof; 
 (7)    Permitted Payments to Parent; 

(8)    transactions effected in accordance with the terms of the agreements of the Company or any
Restricted Subsidiary described or otherwise included in Parent’s filings with the SEC that are in effect on the date of this Indenture, and any amendment or replacement of any of such agreements so long as such amendment or replacement
agreement is not materially less advantageous to the Company, taken as a whole, in any material respect than the agreement so amended or replaced; 

(9)    advances to or reimbursements of expenses incurred by employees for moving, entertainment and travel
expenses and similar expenditures in the ordinary course of business; 
 (10)    transactions between the
Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and any other Person, a director of which is also on the Board of Directors of the Company or any direct or indirect parent company of the Company, and such common director is the sole cause for such
other Person to be deemed an Affiliate of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, however, that such director abstains from voting as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company or any direct or indirect parent
company of the Company, as the case may be, on any transaction with such other Person; 
 (11)    the
Reorganization Transactions; 
 (12)    in the case of contracts for exploring for, producing, marketing,
storing or otherwise handling Hydrocarbons, or activities or services reasonably related or ancillary thereto, or other operational contracts, any such contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business and otherwise in compliance with the
terms of this Indenture which are fair to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, in the reasonable determination of the Board of Directors of the Company or the senior management thereof, or are on terms at least as favorable as might
reasonably have been obtained at such time from an unaffiliated party; 
 (13)    payments to Affiliates
on or with respect to debt securities or other Indebtedness of the Issuers or any Subsidiary on a similar basis as payments are made or offered to holders of such debt securities or Indebtedness held by Persons other than Affiliates; and 

  
 75 

 (14)    any transaction in which the Company or any of
its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, delivers to the Trustee a letter from an accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing stating that such transaction is fair to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from a
financial point of view or that such transaction meets the requirements of Section 4.11(a)(1). 

Section 4.12    Liens. 

The Company will not and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, create, incur, assume or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or
become effective any Lien (an “Initial Lien”) of any kind (other than Permitted Liens) securing Indebtedness upon any of their property or assets, now owned or hereafter acquired, unless the Notes or any Note Guarantee of such
Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, are secured on an equal and ratable basis with the Indebtedness so secured until such time as such Indebtedness is no longer secured by a Lien. Any Lien created for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes
pursuant to this paragraph shall provide by its terms that such Lien shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release and discharge of the Initial Lien. 

Section 4.13    [Reserved]. 

Section 4.14    Organizational Existence. 

Subject to Article 5 and Section 10.04 hereof, the Company shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full
force and effect: 
 (a)    its limited liability company existence, and the corporate, partnership or other existence
of each of its Restricted Subsidiaries, in accordance with the respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to time) of the Company or any such Restricted Subsidiary; and 

(b)    the rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries;
provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to preserve any such right, license or franchise, or the corporate, partnership or other existence of any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, if the Company shall determine that the
preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and that the loss thereof is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders of the Notes. 

Section 4.15    Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control. 

(a)    Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Company will make an offer (a “Change of Control
Offer”) to each Holder to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes
repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased to the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), subject to the rights of Holders of the Notes on the relevant record date to
receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date (the “Change of Control Payment”). Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Company will mail a notice to each Holder describing the transaction or transactions
that constitute the Change of Control and stating: 
 (1)    that the Change of Control Offer is being
made pursuant to this Section 4.15 and that all Notes tendered will be accepted for payment; 

  
 76 

 (2)    the purchase price and the expiration date of the
Change of Control Offer, which shall be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is sent; 

(3)    that any Note not tendered will 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 after the Change of Control Payment Date; 

(5)    that Holders electing to have any Notes purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be
required to surrender the Notes, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to the Notes completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Paying Agent 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 election if the Paying Agent receives, not later than the close of business on the second Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date, a telegram, electronic image scan, facsimile transmission
or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of Notes delivered for purchase, and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have the Notes purchased; and 

(7)    that Holders whose Notes are being purchased only in part will be issued new Notes equal in
principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, which unpurchased portion must be equal to $2,000 in principal amount or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. 

The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other
securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or
regulations conflict with the provisions of this Section 4.15, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.15 by virtue of such
compliance. 
 (b)    Promptly following the expiration of the Change of Control Offer, the Company will, to the extent
lawful, accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer. Promptly after such acceptance, the Company will, on the Change of Control Payment Date: 

(1)    deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all
Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered; and 

  
 77 

 (2)    deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee
the Notes properly accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Company. 

The Paying Agent will promptly mail (but in any case not later than five days after the Change of Control Payment Date) to each Holder of
Notes properly tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Notes (or, if all the Notes are then in global form, it will make such payment through the facilities of DTC), and the Issuers will promptly issue a new Note, and, upon receipt of an
Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02, the Trustee, upon the written request of the Issuers, 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. The Company will announce to the Holders of the Notes the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date. 

(c)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.15, the Company will not be required to make a
Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if (1) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the time and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Section 4.15 and purchases all Notes
properly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer, (2) notice of redemption of all outstanding Notes has been given pursuant to Section 3.03 hereof, unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable
redemption price, or (3) in connection with or in contemplation of any Change of Control, the Company has made an offer to purchase (an “Alternate Offer”) any and all Notes validly tendered at a cash price equal to or higher
than the Change of Control Payment and has purchased all Notes properly tendered in accordance with the terms of the Alternate Offer. 

(d)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, a Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer may be made
in advance of a Change of Control, conditioned upon the consummation of such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time the Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer is made. 

(e)    In the event that Holders of not less than 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes accept a
Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer and the Company (or a third party making the Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer in lieu of the Company as described in paragraph (c) above) purchases all of the Notes held by such Holders, the
Issuers 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 or Alternate Offer described above, to redeem all of the Notes
that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price equal to the Change of Control Payment plus, to the extent not included in the Change of Control Payment, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes that remain
outstanding, to the date of redemption (subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an interest payment date that is on or prior to the redemption date). 

Section 4.16    Additional Note Guarantees. 

If the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries acquires or creates another Restricted Subsidiary after the date of this Indenture that
Guarantees Indebtedness of the Company or any 

  
 78 

 
Guarantor under a Credit Facility, then, in either case, that Subsidiary will become a Guarantor by executing a supplemental indenture in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto and delivering
an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee within 30 days after the date that Subsidiary was acquired or created or on which it Guaranteed such Indebtedness. 

Section 4.17    Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries. 

The Company may designate any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause a
Default. If a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate Fair Market Value of all outstanding Investments owned by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary designated as an
Unrestricted Subsidiary will be deemed to be either an Investment made as of the time of the designation that will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under Section 4.07 hereof or represent a Permitted Investment under one or
more clauses of the definition of Permitted Investments, as determined by the Company. That designation will only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time and if the Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an
Unrestricted Subsidiary. 
 Any designation of a Subsidiary of the Company as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be evidenced by filing with
the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such designation complied with the preceding conditions and was permitted by Section 4.07 hereof. If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary would fail to meet the preceding
requirements as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it will thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of this Indenture and any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary will be deemed to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company as
of such date and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred as of such date under Section 4.09 hereof, the Company will be in default of such covenant. 

The Board of Directors of the Company may at any time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company;
provided that such designation will be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary, and such designation will only be permitted if
(1) such Indebtedness is permitted under Section 4.09 hereof, calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the applicable reference period; and (2) no Default or Event of Default would be in
existence following such designation. 
 Section 4.18    Covenant Termination. 

Notwithstanding any provision of this Indenture or of the Notes to the contrary, if at any time following the date of this Indenture
(a) the Notes are rated Baa3 or better by Moody’s or BBB- or better by S&P (or, if either such entity ceases to rate the Notes for reasons outside of the control of the Company, the equivalent
investment grade credit rating from any other “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” within the meaning of Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act selected by the Company as a replacement agency) and (b) no Default
or Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing under this Indenture then upon delivery by the Company to the Trustee of an Officers’ Certificate certifying to such events, Sections 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.17 and 5.01(a)(4) of
this Indenture will be terminated and the limitations in such covenants will cease to apply and no Default or Event of Default shall result from any failure to comply with any of the provisions of such Sections. The Trustee shall not have any
obligation to monitor the ratings of the Notes.

(1)    either: (a) such Issuer is the surviving Person; or (b) the Person formed by or surviving
any such consolidation or merger (if other than such Issuer) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, lease or other disposition has been made is an entity organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state of the

satisfactory to the Trustee; 
 (3)    immediately after such transaction, no Default or Event of Default
exists; 
 (4)    in the case of a transaction involving the Company and not Finance Corp., immediately
after giving effect to such transaction and any related financing transaction on a pro forma basis as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, either 

(A)    the Company or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the
Company), or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, lease or other disposition has been made, would be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in
Section 4.09(a); or 
 (B)    the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of the Company or the Person formed by

 (5)    such Issuer has delivered to the Trustee an
Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger or disposition and such supplemental indenture, if any, comply with this Indenture. 

(b)    Notwithstanding anything contained in this Indenture to the contrary, in the event the Company becomes a
corporation or the Company or the Person formed by or surviving any consolidation or merger (permitted in accordance with the terms of this Indenture) is a corporation, Finance Corp. may be merged into the Company or it may be dissolved and cease to
be an Issuer. 
 (c)    This Section 5.01 will not apply to (1) any statutory conversion of the Company to a
corporation or another form of entity or (2) any sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, lease or other disposition of properties or assets between or among the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries. Clauses (3) and (4) of
Section 5.01(a) will not apply to (1) any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into one of its Restricted Subsidiaries for any purpose or (2) with or into an Affiliate solely for the purpose of reorganizing the Company in
another jurisdiction. 
 Section 5.02    Successor Issuer Substituted. 

Upon any consolidation or merger, or any sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the
properties or assets of an Issuer in which such Issuer is not the surviving entity, the successor Person formed by such consolidation or into or with which such Issuer is merged or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other
disposition is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such consolidation, merger, sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition, the provisions of this Indenture referring to an
“Issuer” shall refer instead to the successor Person and not to the predecessor Issuer), and may exercise every right and power of such Issuer under this Indenture with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named as the
predecessor Issuer herein, and thereafter (except in the case of a lease of all or substantially all of such Issuer’s properties or assets), such Issuer will be relieved of all obligations and covenants under this Indenture and the Notes and,
upon receipt of an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, the Trustee shall enter into a supplemental indenture to evidence the succession and substitution of such successor and such discharge and relief of such predecessor Issuer.

 ARTICLE 6 
 DEFAULTS
AND REMEDIES

Each of the following is an “Event of Default”: 

(a)    default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest, if any, on the Notes; 

(b)    default in the payment when due (at Stated Maturity, upon redemption or otherwise) of the principal of, or premium,
if any, on, the Notes; 
 (c)    failure by the Company to comply with its obligations to offer to purchase or purchase

created after the date of this Indenture, if that default: 
 (1)    is caused by a failure to pay
principal of, premium, if any, on, and interest, if any, on such Indebtedness prior to the expiration of the grace period provided in such Indebtedness on the date of such default (a “Payment Default”); or 

(2)    results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity, and, in each case,
the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $100.0 million or more;
provided, however, that if, prior to any acceleration of the Notes, (i) any such Payment Default is cured or waived, (ii) any such acceleration is rescinded, or (iii) such Indebtedness is repaid during the 30 Business Day
period commencing upon the end of any applicable grace period for such Payment Default or the occurrence of such acceleration, as the case may be, any Default or Event of Default (but not any acceleration of the Notes) caused by such Payment Default
or acceleration shall be automatically rescinded, so long as such rescission does not conflict with any judgment, decree or applicable law; 

(g)    failure by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to pay final judgments entered by a court or courts of

(3)    consents to the appointment of a custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its property,

  
 82

(3)    orders the liquidation of the Company, Finance Corp. or any of the Company’s Restricted
Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary; 

and in each case the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days; and 

(j)    except as permitted by this Indenture, any Note Guarantee is held in any judicial proceeding to be unenforceable or
invalid or ceases for any reason to be in full force and effect, or any Guarantor, or any Person acting on behalf of any Guarantor, denies or disaffirms its obligations under its Note Guarantee. 

Section 6.02    Acceleration. 

In the case of an Event of Default specified in clause (h) or (i) of Section 6.01 hereof, with respect to the Company, any Restricted
Subsidiary of the Company that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on 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 at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding
Notes may declare the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all outstanding Notes to be due and payable immediately. 

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of all
of the Holders of all the Notes, rescind an acceleration and its consequences hereunder, if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default (except nonpayment of principal of, premium, if any, on,
and interest, if any, on the Notes that has become due solely because of the acceleration) have been cured or waived. 

  
 83 

 Section 6.03    Other Remedies. 

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, and is known to the Trustee, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the
payment of principal of, premium, if any, on, and interest, if any, on, the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture. 

The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay
or omission by the Trustee or any Holder of a Note in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies are
cumulative to the extent permitted by law. 
 Section 6.04    Waiver of Past Defaults. 

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of the
Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences hereunder, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, premium, if any, on, and interest, if any, on, the Notes
(including in connection with an offer to purchase); provided, however, that the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related payment
default that resulted from such acceleration. 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 6.05    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 that the Trustee
determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders of Notes or that may involve the Trustee in personal liability. 

Section 6.06    Limitation on Suits. 

No Holder of a Note may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless: 

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

(b)    Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes make a written request to the
Trustee to pursue the remedy; 

  
 84 

 (c)    such Holder or Holders offer and, if requested, provide to the
Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense; 

(d)    the Trustee does not comply with such request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of security
or indemnity; and 
 (e)    during such 60-day period, Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request. 
 A Holder of
a Note may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder of a Note or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder of a Note. 

Section 6.07    Rights of Holders of Notes to Receive Payment. 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Note to receive payment of principal of, premium, if any,
on, and interest, if any, on, the Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Note, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be amended or waived in a manner adverse to
such Holder without the consent of such Holder. 
 Section 6.08    Collection Suit by Trustee. 

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

Section 6.09    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 Issuers (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 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 hereof. 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 hereof 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. 

Section 6.10    Priorities. 

If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article 6, it shall pay out the money in the following order: 

First: to the Trustee, its agents and attorneys for amounts due under Section 7.07 hereof, including payment of all compensation,
expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and the costs and expenses of collection; 
 Second: to
Holders of the Notes for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, 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, if any, respectively; and 
 Third: to the Issuers or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall
direct. 
 The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders of the Notes pursuant to this Section 6.10.

 Section 6.11    Undertaking for Costs. 

In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted
by it as a Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’
fees, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 6.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder of a Note pursuant
to Section 6.07 hereof, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes.

 TRUSTEE 

Section 7.01    Duties of Trustee. 

(a)    If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee will 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 man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs. 

  
 86 

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

(1)    the duties of the Trustee will be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture and
the Trustee need perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no others, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and 

(2)    in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the
statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture. However, the Trustee will examine the certificates and opinions to
determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture. 
 (c)    The Trustee may not be relieved

(1)    this paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section 7.01; 

(2)    the Trustee will not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible
Officer, unless it is proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and 

(3)    the Trustee will not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in
accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.05 hereof. 
 (d)    Whether or not therein
expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a), (b), and (c) of this Section 7.01. 

(e)    No provision of this Indenture will require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or incur any liability. The
Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights and powers under this Indenture at the request of any Holders, unless such Holder has offered to the Trustee security and indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against any loss,
liability or expense. 
 (f)    The Trustee will not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the
Trustee may agree in writing with the Issuers. Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 

Section 7.02    Rights of Trustee. 

(a)    The Trustee may conclusively rely upon any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or
presented by the proper Person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document. 

(b)    Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officers’ Certificate or an Opinion of
Counsel or both. The Trustee will not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such Officers’ Certificate or Opinion of Counsel. The Trustee may consult with counsel and the written advice of such counsel
or any Opinion of Counsel will be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon.

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

liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith that it believes to be authorized or within the rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture. 

(e)    Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Indenture, any demand, request, direction or notice from the Issuers
will be sufficient if signed by an Officer of the Company. 
 (f)    The Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise
any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity or security satisfactory to it against the losses, liabilities and
expenses that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction. 
 (g)    The Trustee shall not be
deemed to have notice of a Default or an Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge of such Default or Event of Default. 

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

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

Section 7.03    Individual Rights of Trustee. 

The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuers or any
Affiliate of the Issuers with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest (as defined in the TIA) after a Default has occurred and is continuing it must eliminate
such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as Trustee (if this Indenture has been qualified under the TIA) or resign. Any Agent may do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee is also subject to Sections 7.10
and 7.11 hereof. 
 Section 7.04    Trustee’s Disclaimer. 

The Trustee will not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes, it shall not
be accountable for the Issuers’ use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Issuers or upon the Issuers’ direction under any provision of this Indenture, it will not be responsible for the use or application of any money
received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee, and it will not be responsible for any statement or recital herein or any statement in the Notes or any other document in connection with the sale of the Notes or pursuant to this Indenture other
than its certificate of authentication. 

  
 88 

 Section 7.05    Notice of Defaults. 

If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if it is known to the Trustee, the Trustee will mail to Holders of the Notes a
notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after the Trustee becomes aware of any such Default or Event of Default. Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of, premium, if any, on, and interest, if
any, 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 7.06    [Reserved]. 

Section 7.07    Compensation and Indemnity. 

(a)    The Issuers will pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture
and services hereunder. The Trustee’s compensation will not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuers will reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for all reasonable disbursements, advances and
expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses will include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel. 

(b)    The Issuers and the Guarantors will indemnify the Trustee against any and all losses, liabilities or 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 Issuers and the Guarantors (including this
Section 7.07) and defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Issuers, the Guarantors, 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 will notify the Issuers promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Issuers will not
relieve the Issuers or any of the Guarantors of their obligations hereunder. The Issuers or such Guarantor will defend the claim and the Trustee will cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Issuers will pay the
reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. None of the Issuers or any Guarantor need pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. 

(c)    The obligations of the Issuers and the Guarantors under this Section 7.07 will survive the satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of the Trustee. 
 (d)    To secure the Issuers’ and the
Guarantors’ payment obligations in this Section 7.07, the Trustee will 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 of, premium, if any, on, and
interest, if any, on, particular Notes. Such Lien will survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 

  
 89 

 (e)    When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an
Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(h) or (i) hereof 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 7.08    Replacement of Trustee. 

(a)    A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee will 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 Issuers. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and
the Issuers in writing. The Issuers may remove the Trustee if: 
 (1)    the Trustee fails to comply with
Section 7.10 hereof; 
 (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 Issuers will promptly appoint a successor Trustee. Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may appoint a successor Trustee to replace the
successor Trustee appointed by the Issuers. 
 (d)    If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after
the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Issuers, or the Holders of at least 10% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may petition 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 six
months, fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof, 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 will deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the
Issuers. Thereupon, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee will become effective, and the successor Trustee will have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee will mail a notice of its
succession to Holders. The retiring Trustee will promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee; provided all sums owing to the Trustee hereunder have been paid and subject to the Lien provided for in
Section 7.07 hereof. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08, the Issuers’ obligations under Section 7.07 hereof will continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

 Section 7.09    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
corporation, the successor corporation without any further act will be the successor Trustee. 

Section 7.10    Eligibility; Disqualification. 

There will at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of
America or of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities and that has a combined capital and surplus of at least
$100.0 million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. 
 ARTICLE 8 

LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE 

Section 8.01    Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 

The Issuers may at any time, at the option of their respective Boards of Directors evidenced by resolutions set forth in an Officers’
Certificate, elect to have either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof be applied to all outstanding Notes upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article 8. 

Section 8.02    Legal Defeasance and Discharge. 

Upon the Issuers’ exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, the Issuers and each of the
Guarantors will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes (including the Note Guarantees) on the date the
conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Issuers and the Guarantors will be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented
by the outstanding Notes (including the Note Guarantees), which will thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses (a) and
(b) below, and to have satisfied all their other obligations under such Notes, the Note Guarantees and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuers, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except
for the following provisions which will survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: 
 (a)    the rights
of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, on, and interest, if any, on, such Notes when such payments are due from the trust referred to in Section 8.04 hereof; 

  
 91 

 (b)    the Issuers’ obligations with respect to such Notes under
Sections 2.03, 2.04, 2.06, 2.07, 2.10, and 2.11 and Section 4.02 hereof; 
 (c)    the rights, powers, trusts,
duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and the Issuers’ and the Guarantors’ obligations in connection therewith; and 

(d)    this Article 8. 

Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Issuers may exercise their option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior
exercise of its option under Section 8.03 hereof. 
 Section 8.03    Covenant Defeasance. 

Upon the Issuers’ exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Issuers and each of the
Guarantors will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be released from each of their respective obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.03, 4.04, 4.05, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11,
4.12, 4.14, 4.15, 4.16 and 4.17 hereof and clause (4) of Section 5.01(a) hereof with respect to the outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant
Defeasance”), and the Notes will 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 will continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes will 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 and Note Guarantees, the Issuers and the Guarantors may omit to comply with and will 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 will not
constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01 hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes and Note Guarantees will be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Issuers’ exercise
under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, Sections 6.01(c), (d), (e), (f), (g) and (j) hereof will not constitute
Events of Default. 
 Section 8.04    Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. 

In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance under either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof: 

(a)    the Issuers must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S.
dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of an accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing, to pay
the principal of, premium, if any, on, and interest, if any, on, the outstanding Notes on the stated date for payment thereof or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Issuers must specify whether the Notes are being defeased
to such stated date for payment or to a particular redemption date (provided that if such redemption is made as provided in Section 3.07(b), (x) the amount of cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable
Government 

  
 92 

 
Securities, or a combination thereof, that must be irrevocably deposited will be determined using an assumed Applicable Premium calculated as of the date of such deposit and (y) the
depositor must irrevocably deposit or cause to be deposited additional money in trust on the redemption date as necessary to pay the Applicable Premium as determined on such date); 

(b)    in the case of an election under Section 8.02 hereof, the Issuers must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of
Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that: 
 (1)    the Issuers have received from,
or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling; or 
 (2)    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 will confirm that, the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or
loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal 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 Legal Defeasance had not occurred;

 (c)    in the case of an election under Section 8.03 hereof, the Issuers must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion
of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant 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 Covenant Defeasance had not occurred; 

(d)    no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or
Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit (and any similar concurrent deposit relating to other Indebtedness), and the granting of Liens to secure such borrowings); 

(e)    such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default
under, any material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture and the agreements governing any other Indebtedness being defeased, discharged or replaced) to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries is bound; 
 (f)    the Issuers must deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate
stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuers with the intent of preferring the Holders of the Notes over the other creditors of the Issuers with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any creditors of the Issuers or
others; and 
 (g)    the Issuers must deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel,
each stating that all conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with. 

  
 93 

 Section 8.05    Deposited Money and Government Securities to be
Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. 
 Subject to Section 8.06 hereof, all money and
non-callable Government Securities (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 hereof in respect of the outstanding Notes will be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying
Agent (including the Company acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, but such money need not be
segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
 The Issuers will pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or
other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or non-callable Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof 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. 
 Notwithstanding anything in
this Article 8 to the contrary, the Trustee will deliver or pay to the Issuers from time to time upon the request of the Issuers any money or non-callable Government Securities held by it as provided in
Section 8.04 hereof which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(a)
hereof), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 

Section 8.06    Repayment to Issuers. 

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Issuers, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium,
if any, on, and interest, if any, on, any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium, if any, or interest, if any, has become due and payable shall be paid to the Issuers on their request or (if then held by the
Issuers) will be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note will thereafter be permitted to look only to the Issuers for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all
liability of the Issuers as trustee thereof, will thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Issuers cause to be published once, in
The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal (national edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which will not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification or
publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Issuers. 

Section 8.07    Reinstatement. 

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any U.S. dollars or non-callable Government
Securities in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or 

  
 94 

 
otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Issuers’ and the Guarantors’ obligations under this Indenture and the Notes and the Note Guarantees will be revived and reinstated as
though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof 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 hereof, as the case may be; provided,
however, that, if the Issuers make any payment of principal of, premium, if any, on, or interest, if any, on, any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuers will be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to
receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent. 
 ARTICLE 9 

AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER 

Section 9.01    Without Consent of Holders of Notes. 

Notwithstanding Section 9.02 of this Indenture, without the consent of any Holder of Notes, the Issuers, the Guarantors and the Trustee
may amend or supplement this Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees: 
 (a)    to cure any ambiguity, defect or
inconsistency; 
 (b)    to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes; 

(c)    to provide for the assumption of the Issuers’ or a Guarantor’s obligations to Holders of the Notes and
Note Guarantees in the case of a merger or consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the Issuers’ or such Guarantor’s properties or assets, as applicable; 

(d)    to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of the Notes or that does
not adversely affect the legal rights under this Indenture of any Holder, including to comply with requirements of the SEC or DTC in order to maintain the transferability of the Notes pursuant to Rule 144A or Regulation S; 

(e)    to comply with requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of this Indenture under the
TIA;

“Description of Notes” section of the Offering Circular; 
 (g)    to provide for the issuance of Additional
Notes in accordance with the limitations set forth in this Indenture as of the date hereof;

this Indenture of a successor Trustee. 
 Section 9.02    With Consent of Holders of Notes. 

Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, the Issuers, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture
(including Sections 3.09, 4.10 and 4.15 hereof) and the Notes and the Note Guarantees with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including Additional Notes, if any) voting as a single
class (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes), and any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with any provision of this Indenture or the Notes or the Note
Guarantees may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including Additional Notes, if any) voting as a single class (including consents obtained in connection with a tender
offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes). Section 2.08 hereof shall determine which Notes are considered to be “outstanding” for purposes of this Section 9.02. However, without the consent of each
Holder affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder): 

(a)    reduce the principal amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver; 

(b)    reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any Note or alter or waive any of the provisions with
respect to the redemption or repurchase of the Notes (other than provisions under Sections 3.09, 4.10 or 4.15 or the minimum notice required with respect to any redemption of Notes pursuant to Article 3); 

(c)    reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest, including default interest, on any Note; 

(d)    waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, premium, if any, on, or interest, if any, on
the Notes (except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration); 

(e)    make any Note payable in money other than that stated in the Notes; 

(f)    make any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights of Holders
of the Notes to receive payments of principal of, premium, if any, on, or interest, if any, on, the Notes (other than as permitted in clause (g) below); 

(g)    waive a redemption or repurchase payment with respect to any Note (other than a payment required by
Section 3.09, 4.10 or 4.15); 
 (h)    release any Guarantor from any of its obligations under its Note Guarantee
or this Indenture, except in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; or 
 (i)    make any change in the preceding
amendment, supplement and waiver provisions. 

  
 96 

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

After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Company will mail to the Holders of the Notes
affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Company to mail such notice, or any defect therein, will not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental
indenture or waiver. 
 Section 9.03    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 unless it makes a change described in any of clauses (a) through (i) of the first paragraph of Section 9.02, in which case, the amendment, supplement or waiver shall bind only each Holder of a Note who has
consented to such amendment, supplement or waiver and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same indebtedness as the consenting Holder’s Note. 

Section 9.04    Notation on or Exchange of Notes. 

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

Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note will not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver.

 Section 9.05    Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc. 

The Trustee will sign any amended or supplemental indenture authorized pursuant to this Article 9 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, the Trustee will be entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof) will be fully protected in relying
upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 12.04 hereof, 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. 

  
 97 

 Section 9.06    Effect of Supplemental Indentures. 

Upon the execution of any amended or supplemental indenture under this Article 9, this Indenture shall be modified in accordance therewith, and
such amended or supplemental indenture shall form a part of this Indenture for all purposes and every Holder of Notes theretofore or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder shall be bound thereby, unless such amended or supplemental
indenture makes a change described in any of clauses (a) through (i) of the first paragraph of Section 9.02, in which case, such amended or supplemental indenture shall bind only each Holder of a Note who has consented to such amended or
supplemental indenture and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same indebtedness as the consenting Holder’s Note. 

ARTICLE 10 
 NOTE
GUARANTEES 
 Section 10.01    Guarantee. 

(a)    Subject to this Article 10, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally Guarantees to each
Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Issuers hereunder or thereunder,
that: 
 (1)    the principal of, premium, if any, on, and interest, if any, 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, on, and interest, if any, on, the Notes, if lawful, and all other obligations of the
Company to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder will be promptly paid in full, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and 

(2)    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 Guarantors will be jointly and
severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a Guarantee of payment and not a Guarantee of collection. 

(b)    The Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder are 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
Issuers, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims
with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuers, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuers, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenant that this Note Guarantee will not be discharged except by
complete payment of all amounts due under the Notes and this Indenture. 

  
 98 

 (c)    If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or
otherwise to return to the Issuers, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Issuers or the Guarantors, any amount paid by any of them to the Trustee or such Holder, this Note
Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, will be reinstated in full force and effect. 
 (d)    Each Guarantor
agrees that it will 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 Guarantor further agrees that, as between the
Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (1) the maturity of the obligations Guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 hereof for the purposes of this Note Guarantee, notwithstanding
any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations Guaranteed hereby, and (2) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6 hereof, such
obligations (whether or not due and payable) will forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Note Guarantee. The Guarantors will have the right to seek contribution from any
non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Note Guarantee. 

Section 10.02    Limitation on Guarantor Liability. 

Each Guarantor and, by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Note
Guarantee of such 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 Note Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor will be limited to the maximum amount that will, after giving effect to such
maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other
Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article 10, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Note Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. 

Section 10.03    Execution and Delivery of Note Guarantee. 

The Note Guarantee of any Guarantor shall be evidenced solely by its execution and delivery of this Indenture (or, in the case of any Guarantor
that is not party to this Indenture as of the date hereof, a supplemental indenture) and not by an endorsement on, or attachment to, any Note of any Note Guarantee or notation thereof. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Note Guarantee set forth
in Section 10.01 shall be and remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on any Note a notation of such Note Guarantee. The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall
constitute due delivery of the Note Guarantees set forth in this Indenture on behalf of each of the Guarantors. 

  
 99 

 Section 10.04    Guarantors May Consolidate, etc., on Certain
Terms. 
 Except as otherwise provided in Section 10.05 hereof, no Guarantor may consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or
not such Guarantor is the surviving Person) another Person, other than the Company or another Guarantor, unless: 

(a)    immediately after giving effect to such transaction or series of transactions, no Default or Event of Default
exists; and 
 (b)    either: 

(1)    subject to Section 10.05 hereof, the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or
merger (if other than the Guarantor) unconditionally assumes all the obligations of that Guarantor under its Note Guarantee and this Indenture pursuant to a supplemental indenture in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee; or 

(2)    such transaction or series of transactions does not violate Section 4.10 hereof. 

In case of any such consolidation or merger and upon the assumption by the successor Person, by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered
to the Trustee and satisfactory in form to the Trustee, of the Note Guarantee of the Guarantor and the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this Indenture to be performed by the Guarantor, such successor Person will
succeed to and be substituted for the Guarantor with the same effect as if it had been named herein as a Guarantor. All the Note Guarantees relating to Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Issuers and
delivered to the Trustee will in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Note Guarantees theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Note Guarantees had
been issued at the date of the execution hereof. 
 Except as set forth in Articles 4 and 5 hereof, and notwithstanding clauses (b)(1) and
(2) above, nothing contained in this Indenture or in any of the Notes will prevent any consolidation or merger of a Guarantor with or into the Company or another Guarantor, or will prevent any sale or other disposition of the properties or
assets of a Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to the Company or another Guarantor. 

Section 10.05    Releases. 

Notwithstanding Section 10.04, the Note Guarantee of a Guarantor shall be released: 

(a)    in connection with any sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of that
Guarantor, by way of merger, consolidation or otherwise, to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, if the sale or other disposition does not violate
Section 4.10 hereof; 
 (b)    in connection with any sale or other disposition of Capital Stock of that Guarantor
to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, if the sale or other disposition does not violate Section 4.10 hereof and such Guarantor ceases to be a
Restricted Subsidiary of the Company as a result of the sale or other disposition; 

  
 100 

 (c)    upon designation of such Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary
in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; or 
 (d)    at such time as such Guarantor does not Guarantee any
Indebtedness of the Company or any other Guarantor under a Credit Facility other than the Notes. 
 In addition, the Note Guarantees of all
Guarantors will be released upon Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance in accordance with Article 8 hereof or satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture in accordance with Article 11 hereof. 

Any release pursuant to the foregoing shall be deemed to occur automatically, without further action by the Trustee or Holders of Notes, upon
delivery by the Company of an Officers’ Certificate stating that the conditions to such release have been satisfied. Any Guarantor not released from its obligations under its Note Guarantee as provided in this Section 10.05 will remain
liable for the full amount of principal of, premium, if any, on, and interest, if any, on, the Notes and for the other obligations of any Guarantor under this Indenture as provided in this Article 10. 

ARTICLE 11 
 SATISFACTION
AND DISCHARGE 
 Section 11.01    Satisfaction and Discharge. 

This Indenture will be satisfied and discharged and will cease to be of further effect as to all Notes issued hereunder (except as to surviving
rights of registration of transfer or exchange of the Notes and as otherwise specified in this Article 11), and the Trustee, at the expense of the Issuers, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging such satisfaction and discharge of this
Indenture, when: 
 (a)    either: 

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

(2)    all Notes that have not been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable
or will become due and payable within one year by reason of the mailing of a notice of redemption or otherwise and either an Issuer or any Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely
for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, without consideration of any reinvestment of interest,
to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Notes not delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, to the date of Stated Maturity or redemption (provided that if such redemption is
made as provided Section 3.07(b), (x) the amount of cash in U.S. dollars, 

  
 101 

 
non-callable Government Securities, or a combination thereof, that must be irrevocably deposited will be determined using an assumed Applicable Premium
calculated as of the date of such deposit and (y) the depositor must irrevocably deposit or cause to be deposited additional money in trust on the redemption date as necessary to pay the Applicable Premium as determined by such date); 

(b)    the Issuers have paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable by the Issuers under this Indenture; and 

(c)    the Issuers have delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee to apply the deposited money toward the payment
of the Notes at Stated Maturity or on the redemption date, as the case may be. 
 In addition, the Issuers must deliver an Officers’
Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied. 

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money has been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause
(2) of clause (a) of this Section 11.01, the provisions of Sections 11.02 and 8.06 hereof will survive. In addition, nothing in this Section 11.01 will be deemed to discharge those provisions of Section 7.07 hereof, that, by
their terms, survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 
 Section 11.02    Application of Trust
Money. 
 Subject to the provisions of Section 8.06 hereof, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 11.01
hereof shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may
determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal, premium, if any, interest, if any, for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee; but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required
by law. 
 If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Government Securities in accordance with Section 11.01 hereof
by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Issuers’ and any Guarantor’s obligations under this
Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 11.01 hereof; provided that if the Issuers have made any payment of principal of, premium, if any, on, and interest, if any,
on, any Notes because of the reinstatement of their obligations, the Issuers shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or Government Securities held by the Trustee or Paying Agent. 

Notwithstanding the above, the Trustee shall pay to the Company from time to time upon its request any money or Government Securities held by
the Trustee as provided in this Section 11.02 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof that would
then be required to be deposited to effect satisfaction and discharge under this Article 11. 

  
 102 

 Any money or Government Securities deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then
held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium 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
on its request or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to
such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may, at the expense of the Company, cause to be
published once, in The New York Times or The Wall Street Journal (national edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such
notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining shall be repaid to the Company.

 All notices and

being deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, if mailed; when receipt acknowledged, if transmitted by electronic image scan or facsimile; and the next Business Day after timely delivery to the

 Any notice or communication to a Holder will be mailed by first
class mail, certified or registered, return receipt requested, or by overnight air courier guaranteeing next day delivery to its address shown on the register kept by the Registrar, except that all notices and communications to the Depositary as a
Holder shall be given in the manner it prescribes, notwithstanding anything to the contrary indication herein. Failure to send a notice or communication to a Holder or any defect in it will not affect its sufficiency with respect to other Holders.

 If a notice or communication is given in the manner provided above within the time prescribed, it is duly given, whether or not the
addressee receives it. 
 If the Issuers send a notice or communication to Holders, it will send a copy to the Trustee and each Agent at the
same time. 
 In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give
such notice by mail, then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder. 

Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice,
either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by the Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in
reliance upon such waiver. 
 Section 12.03    [Reserved]. 

Section 12.04    Certificate and Opinion as to Conditions Precedent. 

Upon any request or application by the Issuers to the Trustee to take any action under this Indenture, the Company shall furnish to the
Trustee: 
 (a)    an Officers’ Certificate in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee (which
must include the statements set forth in Section 12.05 hereof) stating that, in the opinion of the signers, all conditions precedent and covenants, if any, provided for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been satisfied; and

 (b)    an Opinion of Counsel in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee (which must include the
statements set forth in Section 12.05 hereof) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all such conditions precedent and covenants have been satisfied. 

Section 12.05    Statements Required in Certificate or Opinion. 

Each certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture must include: 

(a)    a statement that the person making such certificate or opinion has read such covenant or condition; 

  
 104 

 (b)    a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination
or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such certificate or opinion are based; 
 (c)    a
statement that, in the opinion of such person, he or she has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable him or her to express an informed opinion as to whether or not such covenant or condition has been satisfied; and 

(d)    a statement as to whether or not, in the opinion of such person, such condition or covenant has been satisfied.

 In any case where several matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary
that all such matters be certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one or more
other such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents. 

Any certificate or opinion of an Officer with respect to any Person may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate
or opinion of, or representations by, counsel, unless such Officer knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which his certificate or opinion is
based are erroneous. Any such certificate or opinion of, or representation by, counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon certificates of public officials or upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an
Officer or Officers with respect to any Person stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of such Person (or, if such Person is a limited partnership, such Person’s general partner) unless such
counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are erroneous. 

Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or
other instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and form one instrument. 

Section 12.06    Rules by Trustee and Agents. 

The Trustee may make reasonable rules for action by or at a meeting of Holders. The Registrar or Paying Agent may make reasonable rules and set
reasonable requirements for its functions.

Officers, Employees and Members. 
 No director, manager, officer, member, partner, employee, incorporator or other owner of Capital
Stock of the Issuers or any Guarantor, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of the Issuers or the Guarantors under the Notes, this Indenture or the Note Guarantees or for any 

  
 105 

 
claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are
part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes.

THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WILL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THIS INDENTURE, THE NOTES AND THE NOTE GUARANTEES. 

Section 12.09    No Adverse Interpretation of Other Agreements.

Originals. 
 The parties may sign any number of copies of this Indenture, and each party hereto may sign any number of separate copies
of this Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together represent the same agreement. The exchange of copies of this Indenture and of signature pages by facsimile or PDF transmission shall constitute effective execution

purposes. 
 Section 12.13    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

Section 12.14    Payment Date Other Than a Business Day. 

If any payment with respect to any principal of, premium, if any, on, or interest, if any, on any Note (including any payment to be made on any
date fixed for redemption or purchase of any 

  
 106 

 
Note) is due on a day which is not a Business Day, then the payment need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such date,
and no interest will accrue for the intervening period. 
 Section 12.15    Evidence of Action by Holders.

 (a)    Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this
Indenture to be given, made 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, made or taken
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 12.15. 
 Without limiting the generality of this Section 12.15, unless otherwise provided in or pursuant to this
Indenture, (i) a Holder, including a Depositary or its nominee that is a Holder of a Global Note, may give, make or take, by an agent or agents duly appointed in writing, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or
other Act provided in or pursuant to this Indenture to be given, made or taken by the Holders, and a Depositary or its nominee that is a Holder of a Global Note may duly appoint in writing as its agent or agents members of, or participants in, such
Depositary holding interests in such Global Note in the records of such Depositary; and (ii) with respect to any Global Note the Depositary for which is DTC, any consent or other action given, made or taken by an “agent member” of DTC
by electronic means in accordance with the Automated Tender Offer Procedures system or other customary procedures of, and pursuant to authorization by, DTC shall be deemed to constitute the “Act” of the Holder of such Global Note, and such
Act shall be deemed to have been delivered to the Company and the Trustee upon the delivery by DTC of an “agent’s message” or other notice of such consent or other action having been so given, made or taken in accordance with the
customary procedures of DTC. 
 (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 12.15 or elsewhere in this Indenture, 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 2.03. 

  
 107 

 (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 the Holders entitled to give, make or take such request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, but the Company shall have no obligation to do so. Such record date shall be the record date specified in or pursuant to such resolution, which shall be a date not earlier than the date 30 days prior
to the first solicitation of the Holders generally in connection therewith or the date of the most recent list of the Holders forwarded to the Trustee prior to such solicitation pursuant to Section 2.05 and not later than the date such
solicitation is completed. If such a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the second sentence of Section 9.03, any instrument embodying and evidencing such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act
may be executed before or after such record date, but only the Holders of record at the close of business on such record date (whether or not such Persons were Holders before, or continue to be Holders after, 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 given, made or taken such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and for that purpose
the then outstanding Notes shall be computed as of such record date; provided that no such Act by the Holders of record on any record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not
later than eleven months after such record date. 
 (e)    Subject to Section 9.03, 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 Issuers 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 give, make or 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. 
 Section 12.16    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 their successors hereunder, and the Holders, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture. 

Section 12.17    Language of Notices, Etc. 

Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act required or permitted under this Indenture shall be in the
English language, except that any published notice may be in an official language of the country of publication. 

Section 12.18    U.S.A. Patriot Act. 

The parties hereto acknowledge that in accordance with Section 326 of the U.S.A. Patriot Act, the Trustee, like all financial institutions
and in order to help fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering, is required to obtain, verify and record information that identities each 

  
 108 

 
person or legal entity that establishes a relationship or opens an account with the Trustee. The parties to this Indenture agree that they will provide the Trustee with such information as it may
request in order for the Trustee to satisfy the requirements of the U.S.A. Patriot Act. 

Section 12.19    Force Majeure. 

In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of
or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and
interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services; it being understood that the Trustee shall use reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to
resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances.

 [BACK OF NOTE] 

4.125% SENIOR NOTES DUE 2028 
 Capitalized terms
used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated. 

(1)    INTEREST. Parsley Energy, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”), and
Parsley Finance Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Finance Corp.” and together with the Company, the “Issuers”) jointly and severally promise to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of this Note at 4.125% per
annum. The Issuers will pay interest, if any, semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year, beginning August 15, 2020 (each, an “Interest Payment Date”). Interest on the Notes will accrue from
the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance; provided that, 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. The Issuers will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any
Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at a rate that is equal to the then applicable interest rate on the Notes to the extent lawful; they will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any
proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest, if any (without regard to any applicable grace period), from time to time on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful. 

Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. If any payment with respect to any principal of, premium, if any, on, or interest, if any, on any Note (including any payment to be made on any date fixed for redemption or purchase of any Note) is
due on a day which is not a Business Day, then the payment need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such date, and no interest will accrue for the intervening period. 

(2)    METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Issuers will pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest), if any, to the
Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on the February 1 and August 1 next preceding each 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 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. The Notes will be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, at the office or agency of the Issuers maintained for such purpose
or, at the option of the Issuers, payment of interest, if any, may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders; provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be
required with respect to principal of, premium, if any, on, and interest, if any, on, all Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which will have provided wire transfer instructions to the Company or the Paying Agent. Such payment will 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, will
act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Issuers may change the Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar. 

  
 A-3 

 (4)    INDENTURE. The Issuers issued the Notes under an Indenture
dated as of February 11, 2020 (the “Indenture”), among the Issuers, the Guarantors and the Trustee. 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 Notes are unsecured obligations of the Issuers. The Indenture does not limit the
aggregate principal amount of Notes that may be issued thereunder. 
 (5)    OPTIONAL REDEMPTION. 

(a)    At any time prior to February 15, 2020, the Issuers may on any one or more occasions redeem up
to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued under the Indenture, upon notice as provided in the Indenture, at a redemption price equal to 104.125% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any,
to the date of redemption (subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date), with an amount of cash not greater than the net cash proceeds of an Equity Offering, provided
that: 
 (A)    at least 60% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes originally issued on the date of
the Indenture (excluding Notes held by the Company and its Subsidiaries) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption; and 

(B)    the redemption occurs within 180 days after the date of the closing of such Equity Offering. 

(b)    At any time prior to February 15, 2023, the Issuers may on any one or more occasions redeem all
or a part of the Notes, upon notice as provided in the Indenture, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus the Applicable Premium as of the redemption date, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to
the date of redemption, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date. 

(c)    The Issuers may redeem Notes when permitted by, and pursuant to the conditions in,
Section 4.15(e) of the Indenture. 
 (d)    Except pursuant to the preceding paragraphs, the Notes
will not be redeemable at the Issuers’ option prior to February 15, 2023. 
 (e)    On and
after February 15, 2023, the Issuers may on any one or more occasions redeem all or a part of the Notes, upon notice as provided in the Indenture, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below, plus
accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes redeemed, to the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on February 15 of the years 

  
 A-4 

 
indicated below, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date: 

 

					
	 Year
	  	Percentage	 
	 2023
	  	 	102.063	% 
	 2024
	  	 	101.031	% 
	 2025 and thereafter
	  	 	100.000	% 

 Unless the Issuers default in the payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions
thereof called for redemption on the applicable redemption date. 
 (6)    MANDATORY REDEMPTION. The Issuers are
not required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes. 
 (7)    REPURCHASE AT
THE OPTION OF HOLDER. 
 (a)    If there is a Change of Control, except as provided in the Indenture,
the Company will be required to make an offer (a “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of each Holder’s Notes at a purchase
price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to the date of purchase, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant
Interest Payment Date (the “Change of Control Payment”). Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Company will mail a notice to each Holder setting forth the procedures governing the Change of Control Offer as required by
the Indenture. 
 (b)    If the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company consummates any Asset
Sales, within five days of each date on which the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $50.0 million, the Company may be required to make an Asset Sale Offer to all Holders of Notes and all holders of other Indebtedness that is pari
passu with the Notes containing provisions similar to those set forth in the Indenture with respect to offers to purchase, prepay or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets. The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of
the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase, prepayment or redemption, subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date,
and will be payable in cash. Holders of Definitive Notes that are the subject of an offer to purchase will receive an Asset Sale Offer from the Company prior to any related purchase date and may elect to have such Notes purchased by completing the
form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to the Notes. 
 (8)    NOTICE OF
REDEMPTION. At least 10 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, the Issuers will mail or cause to be mailed by first class mail (or sent electronically if DTC is the recipient), a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes
are to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of the
Indenture pursuant to Article 8 or 11 thereof. Notices of redemption may be subject to conditions precedent as set forth in the Indenture. Notes and portions 

  
 A-5 

 
of Notes selected will 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 shall be redeemed. 
 (9)    DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE. The Notes are in
registered form in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a
Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Issuers may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Issuers need not exchange or register the
transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, the Issuers need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a
selection of Notes to be redeemed or during the period between a record date and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date. 

(10)    PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as the owner of it for all purposes.
Only registered Holders have rights under the Indenture. 
 (11)    AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER. Subject to
certain exceptions, the Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes including Additional Notes, if any, voting
as a single class, and any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
then outstanding Notes including Additional Notes, if any, voting as a single class. Without the consent of any Holder of Notes, the Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be amended or supplemented for certain purposes set forth in the
Indenture. 
 (12)    DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES. In the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of
bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company, any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary,
the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, 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 at
least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, all outstanding Notes to be due and payable immediately. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the
Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, 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. 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, premium, if any, on, and interest, if any, on the Notes) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice to the Trustee may, on
behalf of all the Holders, rescind an acceleration and its consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, premium, if any, on, or interest, if any, on, the Notes

  
 A-6 

 
(including in connection with an offer to purchase any Notes). The Issuers are required to deliver to the Trustee annually an Officers’ Certificate regarding compliance with the Indenture,
and the Issuers are required, upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, to deliver to the Trustee a written statement specifying such Default or Event of Default. 

(13)    TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH 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, manager, officer, member, partner, employee, incorporator or other
owner of Capital Stock of the Issuers or any Guarantor, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of the Issuers or the Guarantors under the Notes, the Indenture, the Note Guarantees or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason
of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. 

(15)    AUTHENTICATION. This Note will not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or
an authenticating agent. 
 (16)    ABBREVIATIONS. Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or
an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act). 

(17)    CUSIP NUMBERS. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification
Procedures, the Company has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes, and the Trustee may use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed
on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption, and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon. 

(18)    GOVERNING LAW. THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WILL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THE INDENTURE, THIS
NOTE AND THE NOTE GUARANTEES. 
 The Company will furnish to any Holder upon written request and without charge a copy of the Indenture. Requests may be

 Reference is hereby made to the Indenture, dated as of February 11, 2020 (the “Indenture”),
among Parsley Energy, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”), Parsley Finance Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Finance Corp.” and together with the Company, the “Issuers”), the
Guarantors party thereto and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Indenture. 

[●], (the “Transferor”) owns and proposes to transfer the Note[s] or interest in such Note[s] specified in Annex A
hereto, in the principal amount of $ [●] in such Note[s] or interests (the “Transfer”), to [●] (the “Transferee”), as further specified in Annex A hereto. In connection with the Transfer, the Transferor
hereby certifies that: 
 [CHECK ALL THAT APPLY] 

1.     ☐ Check if Transferee will take delivery of a beneficial interest in the 144A Global Note or a
Restricted Definitive Note pursuant to Rule 144A. The Transfer is being effected pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and, accordingly, the
Transferor hereby further certifies that the beneficial interest or Definitive Note is being transferred to a Person that the Transferor reasonably believes is purchasing the beneficial interest or Definitive Note for its own account, or for one or
more accounts with respect to which such Person exercises sole investment discretion, and such Person and each such account is a “qualified institutional buyer” within the meaning of Rule 144A in a transaction meeting the requirements of
