 SECTION 1.3 Rules of Construction. Unless the context otherwise requires: 

(a)    a term has the meaning assigned to it; 

(b)    an accounting term not otherwise defined has the meaning assigned to it in accordance with GAAP;

 (c)    “or” is not exclusive; 

(d)    “including” means including without limitation; 

(e)    words in the singular include the plural and words in the plural include the singular; 

(f)    (i) unsecured Indebtedness shall not be deemed to be subordinate or junior to secured
Indebtedness merely by virtue of its nature as unsecured Indebtedness and (ii) secured Indebtedness shall not be deemed to be subordinated or junior to other secured Indebtedness merely because it has a junior priority with respect to
the same collateral; 
 (g)    references to sections of, or rules under, the Securities Act or Exchange
Act shall be deemed to include substitute, replacement or successor sections or rules adopted by the SEC from time to time; 

(h)    unless the context otherwise requires, any reference to an “Article,” “Section”
or “clause” refers to an Article, Section or clause, as the case may be, of this Indenture; 

(i)    the words “herein,” “hereof” and “hereunder” and any other words of
similar import refer to this Indenture as a whole and not any particular Article, Section, clause or other subdivision; and 

(j)    notwithstanding any provision of this Indenture, prior to the qualification of this Indenture under
the TIA, no provision of the TIA shall apply or be incorporated by reference into this Indenture or the Notes, except as specifically set forth in this Indenture. 

SECTION 1.4 Incorporation by Reference of TIA. Whenever this Indenture refers explicitly to a provision of the TIA, such provision is
incorporated by reference in and made a part of this Indenture to the extent such provision is specifically and expressly set forth in this Indenture as being applicable. Any terms incorporated by reference in this Indenture that are explicitly
defined by the TIA, defined explicitly by any TIA reference to another statute or defined explicitly by SEC rule under the TIA, have the meanings so assigned to them therein. 

SECTION 1.5 Limited Condition Transaction. In connection with any action being taken in connection with a Limited Condition
Transaction, for purposes of determining compliance with any provision of this Indenture which requires that no Default, Event of Default or specified Event of Default, as applicable, has occurred, is continuing or would result from any

  
 46 

 
such action, as applicable, such condition shall, at the option of the Issuer, be deemed satisfied, so long as no Default, Event of Default or specified Event of Default, as applicable, exists on
(i) in the case of clause (x) of the definition of Limited Condition Transaction, the date a definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is entered into or (ii) in the case of clause (y) of the
definition of Limited Condition Transaction, the date that the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiary provides notice of such repayment, repurchase or refinancing of Indebtedness (clauses (i) and (ii), as applicable, the “effective
date”). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Issuer has exercised its option under the first sentence of this Section 1.5, and any Default or Event of Default occurs following the effective date on which the applicable Limited Condition
Transaction was entered into and prior to the consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to not have occurred or be continuing for purposes of determining whether any action being taken
in connection with such Limited Condition Transaction is permitted hereunder. 
 In connection with any action being taken in connection
with a Limited Condition Transaction, for purposes of: 
 (i)     determining compliance with any provision of this
Indenture which requires the calculation of the Consolidated Senior Secured Net Debt Ratio, the Consolidated Total Net Debt Ratio or the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio; or 

(ii)     testing baskets set forth in this Indenture (including baskets measured as a percentage of Four Quarter EBITDA);

 in each case, at the option of the Issuer (the Issuer’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition
Transaction, an “LCA Election”), the date of determination of whether any such action is permitted hereunder, shall be deemed to be the effective date for such Limited Condition Transaction (the “LCA Test Date”),
and if, after giving Pro Forma Effect to the Limited Condition Transaction and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any Incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) as if they had occurred at
the beginning of the most recent four consecutive fiscal quarters of the Issuer ending prior to the LCA Test Date for which consolidated financial statements of the Issuer are available, the Issuer could have taken such action on the relevant LCA
Test Date in compliance with such ratio or basket, such ratio or basket shall be deemed to have been complied with. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Issuer has made an LCA Election and any of the ratios, baskets or amounts for which compliance was
determined or tested as of the LCA Test Date are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio, basket or amount, including due to fluctuations in Four Quarter EBITDA of the Issuer or the Person subject to such Limited Condition Transaction
or any applicable currency exchange rate, at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or action, such baskets, ratios or amounts will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations. If the Issuer has made an LCA
Election for any Limited Condition Transaction, then in connection with any subsequent calculation of any ratio or basket availability with respect to the Incurrence of Indebtedness or Liens, or the making of Restricted Payments, mergers, the
conveyance, lease or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer or the designation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary on or following the relevant LCA Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited
Condition Transaction is consummated or the definitive agreement for such Limited 

  
 47 

 
Condition Transaction is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such ratio or basket shall be calculated on a Pro Forma Basis assuming such Limited
Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any Incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated.

pursuant to Section 2.7, 2.8, 2.9, 2.15(d), 2.15(e), or 5.7); 
 (3)    the date or dates on which the principal of
and premium, if any, on the Notes of the series is payable or the method of determination and/or extension of such date or dates, and the amount or amounts of such principal and premium, if any, and payments and methods of determination thereof;

 (4)    the rate or rates at which the Notes of the series shall bear interest, if any, or the method of calculating
and/or resetting such rate or rates of interest, the date or dates from which such interest shall accrue or the method by which such date or dates shall be determined, and the Interest Payment Dates on which any such interest shall be payable; 

(5)    the period or periods within which, the price or prices at which, and other terms and conditions upon which Notes
of the series may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at the option of the Issuer, if the Issuer is to have the option; 

(6)    if other than the principal amount thereof, the portion of the principal amount of Notes of the series that shall
be payable upon declaration of acceleration of maturity thereof pursuant to Section 6.2 or the method by which such portion shall be determined; 

(7)    in the case of any Notes, other than Initial Notes, any addition to or change in the Events of Default which apply
to any Notes of the series and any change in the right of the Trustee or the requisite Holders of such Notes to declare the principal amount thereof due and payable pursuant to Section 6.2; 

(8)    in the case of any Notes, other than Initial Notes, any addition to or change in the covenants set forth in
Articles III and IV; and 
 (9)    in the case of any Notes, other than Initial Notes, any addition to or change in the
definitions in Section 1.1 related to additions or changes contemplated by the foregoing clauses (7) and (8). 
 The form of the
Notes of such series, as set forth in Exhibit A, may be modified to reflect such matters as so established in such Notes Supplemental Indenture. 

  
 52 

 Such matters may also be established in a Notes Supplemental Indenture for any Additional Notes
issued hereunder that are to be of the same series as any Notes previously issued hereunder. Notes that have the same terms described in the foregoing clauses (1) though (9) will be treated as the same series, unless otherwise designated by the
Issuer; provided that if any Additional Notes are not fungible with the Initial Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such Additional Notes will have a separate “CUSIP” or “ISIN” number. 

SECTION 2.5 Denominations. The Notes shall be issuable only in fully registered form, without coupons, and only in minimum
denominations of $2,000 (the “Minimum Denomination”), and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. 
 SECTION 2.6
Execution, Authentication and Delivery and Dating. The Notes shall be executed on behalf of the Issuer by one Officer thereof. The signature of any such Officer on the Notes may be manual or by facsimile. 

Notes bearing the manual or facsimile signature of an individual who was at any time an Officer of the Issuer shall bind the Issuer,
notwithstanding that such individual has ceased to hold such office prior to the authentication and delivery of such Notes or did not hold such office at the date of such Notes. 

At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Issuer may deliver Notes executed by the Issuer to
the Trustee for authentication; and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver (i) Initial Notes for original issue in the aggregate principal amount not to exceed $350.0 million and (ii) Additional Notes in one or more
series (which may be of the same series as any Notes previously issued hereunder, or of a different series) from time to time for original issue in aggregate principal amounts specified by the Issuer, upon a written order of the Issuer in the form
of an Officer’s Certificate of the Issuer (an “Authentication Order”). Such Officer’s Certificate shall specify the amount of Notes to be authenticated and the date on which the Notes are to be authenticated, the
“CUSIP,” “ISIN,” “Common Code” or other similar identification numbers of such Notes, if any, whether the Notes are to be Initial Notes or Additional Notes and whether the Notes are to be issued as one or more Global
Notes or Physical Notes and such other information as the Issuer may include or the Trustee may reasonably request. 
 All Notes shall be
dated the date of their authentication. 
 No Note shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any
purpose, unless there appears on such Note a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee by manual signature, and such certificate upon any Note shall be conclusive evidence, and the only
evidence, that such Note has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. 
 SECTION 2.7 Temporary Notes. Until definitive Notes
are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and upon receipt of an Authentication Order the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of definitive Notes but may have variations that the Issuer
considers appropriate for temporary Notes. If temporary Notes are issued, the Issuer will cause definitive Notes to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Notes, the temporary Notes shall be exchangeable for
definitive 

  
 53 

 
Notes upon surrender of the temporary Notes at the office or agency of the Issuer in a Place of Payment, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary
Notes the Isssuer shall execute and upon receipt of an Authentication Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Notes of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged the temporary
Notes shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Notes of the same series and tenor. 

SECTION 2.8 Registrar and Paying Agent. The Issuer shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee a register (the
register maintained in such office and in any other office or agency of the Issuer in a Place of Payment being herein sometimes collectively referred to as the “Note Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it
may prescribe, the Issuer shall provide for the registration of Notes and of transfers of Notes. The Issuer may have one or more co-registrars. The term “Note Registrar” includes any co-registrars. 
 The Issuer may have one or more additional paying agents, and the term “Paying
Agent” shall include any additional Paying Agent. 
 The Issuer initially appoints the Trustee as “Note Registrar” and
“Paying Agent” in connection with the Notes, until such time as it has resigned or a successor has been appointed. The Issuer may change the Paying Agent or Note Registrar for any series of Notes without prior notice to the Holders of
Notes. The Issuer may enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Note Registrar or Paying Agent not a party to this Indenture. Any such agency agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent. The Issuer
shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any such agent. If the Issuer fails to appoint or maintain a Note Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefor
pursuant to Section 7.6. The Issuer or any wholly-owned Domestic Subsidiary of the Issuer may act as Paying Agent, Note Registrar or transfer agent. 

Upon surrender for transfer of any Note at the office or agency of the Issuer in a Place of Payment, in compliance with all applicable
requirements of this Indenture and applicable law, the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes of the same series, of any authorized
denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount. 
 At the option of the Holder, Notes may be exchanged for other Notes of the same
series, of any authorized denominations and of a like tenor and aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Issuer shall execute, and the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Notes that the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. 
 All Notes issued upon any
transfer or exchange of Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Notes surrendered upon such transfer or exchange. 

Every Note presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange shall (if so required by the Issuer or the Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Note Registrar duly executed, by the Holder thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing. 

  
 54 

 No service charge shall be made for any registration, transfer or exchange of Notes, but the
Issuer and/or Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith. 

The Issuer shall not be required (i) to issue, transfer or exchange any Note during a period beginning at the opening of business
15 Business Days before the day of the sending of a notice of redemption (or purchase) of Notes selected for redemption (or purchase) under Section 5.3(b) and ending at the close of business on the day of such sending, or (ii) to
transfer or exchange any Note so selected for redemption (or purchase) in whole or in part. 
 SECTION 2.9 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and
Stolen Notes. If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Note Registrar or if the Holder of a Note claims that the Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Note if
the requirements of Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code are met, such that the Holder (a) satisfies the Issuer or the Trustee within a reasonable time after such Holder has notice of
such loss, destruction or wrongful taking and the Note Registrar does not register a transfer prior to receiving such notification, (b) makes such request to the Issuer or the Trustee prior to the Note being acquired by a protected
purchaser as defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code (a “protected purchaser”) and (c) satisfies any other reasonable requirements of the Trustee. If required
by the Trustee or the Issuer, such Holder shall furnish an indemnity bond sufficient in the judgment of (i) the Trustee to protect the Trustee and (ii) the Issuer to protect the Issuer, the Trustee, a Paying Agent and the
Note Registrar from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. 
 In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen
Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Issuer in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Note, pay such Note. 

Upon the issuance of any new Note under this Section 2.9, the Issuer may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or
other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith. 

Every new Note issued pursuant to this Section 2.9 in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional
contractual obligation of the Issuer, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and ratably with any and all other Notes duly
issued hereunder. 
 The provisions of this Section 2.9 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and
remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes. 

  
 55 

 SECTION 2.10 Payment of Interest Rights Preserved. Interest on any Note that is payable,
and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest
specified in Section 4 of the applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture. 
 Unless otherwise specified for Notes of any series in the
applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture, as contemplated by Section 2.4, any interest on any Note that is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date (“Defaulted Interest”) shall
forthwith cease to be payable to the registered Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder; and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Issuer, at its election, as provided in clause (1) or
clause (2) below: 
 (1)    The Issuer may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in
whose names the Notes (or their respective Predecessor Notes) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Issuer shall notify the
Trustee and Paying Agent in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee or Paying Agent an amount of money equal to
the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee or Paying Agent for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to
be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as provided in this clause (1). Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 nor
less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee and the Paying Agent of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer of such Special Record
Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Issuer, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder at such Holder’s
address as it appears in the Note Register, or sent electronically, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date or otherwise in accordance with DTC procedures. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special
Record Date therefor having been so given, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Notes (or their respective Predecessor Notes) are registered on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to
the following clause (2). 
 (2)    The Issuer may make payment of any Defaulted Interest in any other lawful manner not
inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Issuer to the Trustee and the Paying Agent of the proposed
payment pursuant to this clause (2), such payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee. 
 Subject to the foregoing provisions of this
Section 2.10, each Note delivered under this Indenture upon transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Note of the same series shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, that were carried by such other
Note of such series. 

  
 56 

 SECTION 2.11 Persons Deemed Owners. The Issuer, any Subsidiary Guarantor, the Trustee, the
Paying Agent and any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and premium, if any), and (subject to Section 2.10) interest on,
such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note be overdue, and none of the Issuer, any Subsidiary Guarantor, the Trustee, the Paying Agent nor any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 

SECTION 2.12 Cancellation. All Notes surrendered for payment, redemption, transfer, exchange or conversion shall, if surrendered to any
Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and, if not already cancelled, shall be promptly cancelled by it. The Issuer may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated and delivered
hereunder that the Issuer may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Notes so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No Notes shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Notes cancelled as provided in this
Section 2.12, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Notes held by the Trustee shall be disposed of by the Trustee in accordance with its customary procedures (subject to the record retention requirements of the Exchange
Act). 
 SECTION 2.13 Computation of Interest. Unless otherwise specified for Notes of any series in the applicable Notes
Supplemental Indenture, as contemplated by Section 2.4, interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360 day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. 

SECTION 2.14 CUSIP Numbers, ISINs, etc. The Issuer in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP” numbers, ISINs and “Common
Code” numbers (if then generally in use), and if so, the Trustee may use the CUSIP numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers in notices of redemption or exchange as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, that any
such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of such numbers printed in the notice or on the Notes; that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes; and that any
redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Issuer should promptly notify the Trustee, in writing, of any change in any “CUSIP,” “ISIN” or “Common Code” number, but failure to so
notify the Trustee shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default by the Issuer. 
 SECTION 2.15 Book-Entry Provisions for Global
Notes. 
 (a)    Each Global Note initially shall (i) be registered in the name of the Depositary for
such Global Note or the nominee of such Depositary, in each case for credit to the account of an Agent Member, and (ii) be delivered to the Notes Custodian. Neither the Issuer nor any of its agents shall have any responsibility or
liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Global Note, or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. 

(b)    Members of, or participants in, the Depositary (“Agent Members”) shall have no rights under this
Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by the Depositary, or the Notes Custodian, or under such Global Notes. The Depositary may be treated by the Issuer, any other obligor upon the Notes, the Trustee and any agent of any of
them as the 

  
 57 

 
absolute owner of the Global Notes for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Issuer, any other obligor upon the Notes, the Trustee or any agent
of any of them from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary or impair, as between the Depositary and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the
rights of a beneficial owner of any Note. The registered Holder of a Global Note may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Agent Members and Persons that may hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action that a
Holder is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Notes. 
 The Holder of any Global Note may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any
Person, including Agent Members and Persons that may hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action which a Holder is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Notes. 

(c)    Transfers of a Global Note shall be limited to transfers of such Global Note in whole, but, subject to the
immediately succeeding sentence, not in part, to the Depositary, its successors or their respective nominees. Interests of beneficial owners in a Global Note may not be transferred or exchanged for Physical Notes unless (i) the Issuer
has consented thereto in writing, or such transfer or exchange is made pursuant to the next sentence, and (ii) such transfer or exchange is in accordance with the applicable rules and procedures of the Depositary and the provisions of
Sections 2.8 and 2.16. Subject to the limitation on issuance of Physical Notes set forth in Section 2.16(3), Physical Notes shall be transferred to all beneficial owners in exchange for their beneficial interests in the relevant Global Note, if
(i) the Depositary notifies the Issuer at any time that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the Global Notes and a successor depositary is not appointed within 120 days; (ii) the Depositary ceases to be
registered as a “Clearing Agency” under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and a successor depositary is not appointed within 120 days; (iii) the Issuer, at its option, notifies the Trustee that it elects to cause the issuance
of Physical Notes; or (iv) an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the Notes and the Trustee has received a written request from the Depositary to issue Physical Notes. 

(d)    In connection with any transfer or exchange of a portion of the beneficial interest in any Global Note to
beneficial owners for Physical Notes pursuant to Section 2.15(c), the Note Registrar shall record on its books and records the date and a decrease in the principal amount of such Global Note in an amount equal to the beneficial interest in the
Global Note being transferred, and the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, one or more Physical Notes of like tenor and principal amount of authorized denominations. 

(e)    In connection with a transfer of an entire Global Note to beneficial owners pursuant to Section 2.15(c), the
applicable Global Note shall be deemed to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, to each beneficial owner identified by the Depositary, in exchange for its
beneficial interest in the applicable Global Note, an equal aggregate principal amount of Rule 144A Physical Notes (in the case of any Rule 144A Global Note) or Regulation S Physical Notes (in the case of any Regulation S Global Note), as the case
may be, of authorized denominations. 
 (f)    The transfer and exchange of a Global Note or beneficial interests
therein shall be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with this Indenture (including applicable 

  
 58 

 
restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 2.16) and the applicable rules and procedures therefor of the Depositary. Any beneficial interest in one of the Global Notes that is transferred
to a Person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in a different Global Note will, upon transfer, cease to be an interest in such Global Note and become an interest in the other Global Note and, accordingly, will thereafter be subject to all
transfer restrictions, if any, and other procedures applicable to beneficial interests in such other Global Note for as long as it remains such an interest. A transferor of a beneficial interest in a Global Note shall deliver to the Note Registrar a
written order given in accordance with the Depositary’s applicable rules and procedures containing information regarding the participant account of the Depositary to be credited with a beneficial interest in the relevant Global Note (or shall
otherwise comply with the then applicable rules and procedures of the Depositary). Subject to Section 2.16, the Note Registrar shall, in accordance with such instructions, instruct the Depositary to credit to the account of the Person specified
in such instructions a beneficial interest in such Global Note and to debit the account of the Person making the transfer the beneficial interest in the Global Note being transferred. 

(g)    Any Physical Note delivered in exchange for an interest in a Global Note pursuant to Section 2.15(c) shall, unless
such exchange is made on or after the Resale Restriction Termination Date applicable to such Note and except as otherwise provided in Section 2.3 and Section 2.16, bear the Private Placement Legend. 

(h)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, through the Restricted Period, a beneficial interest in a Regulation S Global Note
may be held only through designated Agent Members holding on behalf of Euroclear or Clearstream unless delivery is made in accordance with the applicable provisions of Section 2.16. 

SECTION 2.16 Special Transfer Provisions. 

(1) Transfers to Non-U.S. Persons. The following provisions shall apply with respect to the
registration of any proposed transfer of a Note that is a Restricted Security (within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) of the Securities Act) to any Non-U.S. Person: The Note Registrar shall register such
transfer if it complies with all other applicable requirements of this Indenture (including Section 2.8), and 

(a)    if (x) such transfer is after the relevant Resale Restriction Termination Date with respect to such
Note or (y) the proposed transferor has delivered to the Note Registrar and the Issuer and the Trustee a Regulation S Certificate and, unless otherwise agreed by the Issuer and the Trustee, an Opinion of Counsel, certifications and other
information satisfactory to the Issuer and the Trustee, and 
 (b)    if the proposed transferor is or is acting through
an Agent Member holding a beneficial interest in a Global Note, upon receipt by the Note Registrar and the Issuer and the Trustee of (x) the certificate, opinion, certifications and other information, if any, required by clause
(a) above and (y) written instructions given in accordance with the procedures of the Note Registrar and of the Depositary; 

whereupon (i) the Note Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and (if the transfer does not involve a transfer
of any Outstanding Physical Note) a decrease in the principal 

  
 59 

 
amount of the relevant Global Note in an amount equal to the principal amount of the beneficial interest in the relevant Global Note to be transferred, and (ii) either (A) if
the proposed transferee is or is acting through an Agent Member holding a beneficial interest in a relevant Regulation S Global Note, the Note Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and an increase in the principal amount of such
Regulation S Global Note in an amount equal to the principal amount of the beneficial interest being so transferred or (B) otherwise the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver one or more Physical Notes of
like tenor and amount. 
 (2) Transfers to QIBs. The following provisions shall apply with respect to the registration of any proposed
transfer of a Note that is a Restricted Security (within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) of the Securities Act) to a QIB (excluding transfers to Non-U.S. Persons): The Note Registrar shall register such transfer
if it complies with all other applicable requirements of this Indenture (including Section 2.8), and 
 (a)    if
such transfer is being made by a proposed transferor who has checked the box provided for on the form of such Note stating, or has otherwise certified to the Note Registrar and the Issuer and the Trustee in writing, that the sale has been made in
compliance with the provisions of Rule 144A to a transferee who has signed the certification provided for on the form of such Note stating, or has otherwise certified to Note Registrar and the Issuer and the Trustee in writing, that it is purchasing
such Note for its own account or an account with respect to which it exercises sole investment discretion and that it and any such account is a QIB within the meaning of Rule 144A, and is aware that the sale to it is being made in reliance on Rule
144A and acknowledges that it has received such information regarding the Issuer as it has requested pursuant to Rule 144A or has determined not to request such information and that it is aware that the transferor is relying upon its foregoing
representations in order to claim the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144A; and 
 (b)    if the proposed
transferee is an Agent Member, and the Note to be transferred consists of a Physical Note that after transfer is to be evidenced by an interest in a Global Note or consists of a beneficial interest in a Global Note that after the transfer is to be
evidenced by an interest in a different Global Note, upon receipt by the Note Registrar of written instructions given in accordance with the Depositary’s and the Note Registrar’s procedures, whereupon the Note Registrar shall reflect on
its books and records the date and an increase in the principal amount of the transferee Global Note in an amount equal to the principal amount of the Physical Note or such beneficial interest in such transferor Global Note to be transferred, and
the Trustee shall cancel the Physical Note so transferred or reflect on its books and records the date and a decrease in the principal amount of such transferor Global Note, as the case may be. 

(3) Limitation on Issuance of Physical Notes. No Physical Note shall be exchanged for a beneficial interest in any Global Note, except in
accordance with Section 2.15 and this Section 2.16. 
 A beneficial owner of an interest in a Regulation S Global Note shall not
be permitted to exchange such interest for a Physical Note (any such exchange being limited, in any case, to the circumstances set forth in Section 2.15(c)) or (in the case of such interest in a Temporary Regulation S Global Note) an interest in a
Permanent Regulation S Global Note until a date, which must be after the Distribution Compliance Date, on which the Issuer receives a certificate 

  
 60 

 
of beneficial ownership substantially in the form of Exhibit B from such beneficial owner (a “Certificate of Beneficial Ownership”). Such date, as it relates to a Regulation S
Global Note, is herein referred to as the “Regulation S Note Exchange Date.” 
 (4)    Private
Placement Legend. Upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes not bearing the Private Placement Legend, the Note Registrar shall deliver Notes that do not bear the Private Placement Legend. Upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes
bearing the Private Placement Legend, the Note Registrar shall deliver only Notes that bear the Private Placement Legend unless (i) the requested transfer is after the relevant Resale Restriction Termination Date with respect to such
Notes, (ii) upon written request of the Issuer after there is delivered to the Note Registrar an Opinion of Counsel (which opinion and counsel are satisfactory to the Issuer) to the effect that neither such legend nor the related
restrictions on transfer are required in order to maintain compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act, (iii) with respect to a Regulation S Global Note (on or after the Resale Restriction Termination Date with respect to such
Regulation S Global Note) or Regulation S Physical Note, in each case with the agreement of the Issuer, or (iv) such Notes are sold or exchanged pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act. 

(5)    Other Transfers. The Note Registrar shall effect and register, upon receipt of a written request from the Issuer to
do so, a transfer not otherwise permitted by this Section 2.16, such registration to be done in accordance with the otherwise applicable provisions of this Section 2.16, upon the furnishing by the proposed transferor or transferee of a
written Opinion of Counsel (which opinion and counsel are satisfactory to the Issuer) to the effect that, and such other certifications or information as the Issuer or the Trustee may require (including, in the case of a transfer to an Accredited
Investor (as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act), a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E) to confirm that, the proposed transfer is being made pursuant to an
exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act. 
 A Note that is a Restricted
Security (within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) of the Securities Act) may not be transferred other than as provided in this Section 2.16. A beneficial interest in a Global Note that is a Restricted Security (within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3)
of the Securities Act) may not be exchanged for a beneficial interest in another Global Note other than through a transfer in compliance with this Section 2.16. 

(6) General. By its acceptance of any Note bearing the Private Placement Legend, each Holder of such a Note acknowledges the restrictions on
transfer of such Note set forth in this Indenture and in the Private Placement Legend and agrees that it will transfer such Note only as provided in this Indenture. 

The Note Registrar shall retain copies of all letters, notices and other written communications received pursuant to Section 2.15 or this
Section 2.16 (including all Notes received for transfer pursuant to Section 2.16). The Issuer shall have the right to require the Note Registrar to deliver to the Issuer, at the Issuer’s expense, copies of all such letters, notices or
other written communications at any reasonable time upon the giving of reasonable written notice to the Note Registrar. 

  
 61 

 In connection with any transfer of any Note, the Trustee, the Note Registrar and the Issuer shall
be entitled to receive, shall be under no duty to inquire into, may conclusively presume the correctness of, and shall be fully protected in relying upon the certificates, opinions and other information referred to herein (or in the forms provided
herein, attached hereto or to the Notes, or otherwise) received from any Holder and any transferee of any Note regarding the validity, legality and due authorization of any such transfer, the eligibility of the transferee to receive such Note and
any other facts and circumstances related to such transfer. 
 SECTION 2.17 [Reserved]. 

SECTION 2.18 Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. The Issuer shall require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing
that the Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of the Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent
to pay all money held by such Paying Agent to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than either of the Issuer) shall have no further liability for the money delivered to the Trustee. If the Issuer acts as Paying
Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. 
 SECTION

the date of the initial borrowing of such Indebtedness or entry into the definitive agreement providing the commitment to fund such Indebtedness after giving Pro Forma Effect to the Incurrence of the entire committed amount of such Indebtedness and
any related transactions (such committed amount, a “Ratio Tested Committed Amount”), in which case such Ratio Tested Committed Amount may thereafter be borrowed and reborrowed, in whole or in part, from time to time, without further
compliance with this clause), would not cause the Consolidated Senior Secured Net Debt Ratio to exceed 3.50 to 1.00; provided that any Indebtedness Incurred under clauses (I) and (II) of this clause (a) shall be deemed to be Secured
Indebtedness, whether or not so secured, solely for purposes of calculating the Consolidated Senior Secured Net Debt Ratio in connection with the Incurrence thereof;

(viii)    shares of Preferred Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary issued to the Issuer or another Restricted
Subsidiary; provided that any subsequent issuance or transfer of any Capital Stock or any other event that results in any Restricted Subsidiary that holds such shares of Preferred Stock of another Restricted Subsidiary ceasing to be a
Restricted Subsidiary or any other subsequent transfer of any such shares of Preferred Stock (except to the Issuer or another Restricted Subsidiary) shall be deemed, in each case, to be an issuance of shares of Preferred Stock not permitted by this

For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 3.3, (w) in the event that an item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of

shall cease to be deemed outstanding for purposes of any such clause but shall instead be deemed Incurred for the purposes of Section 3.3(a) from and after the first date on which the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary could have Incurred such

Section 3.3(b)(xv) (other than by reason of Section 3.3(b)(xv)(2)), the Issuer, in its sole discretion, may classify a portion of such Indebtedness as having been Incurred under Section 3.3(a) and/or Section 3.3(b)(i)(II) and/or Section 3.3(b)(xv)
and thereafter the remainder of such Indebtedness as having been Incurred under any other clause of Section 3.3(b); (y) if any Indebtedness is Incurred to Refinance Indebtedness initially Incurred (or, Indebtedness Incurred 

  
 70 

 
to Refinance Indebtedness initially Incurred) in reliance on any provision of Section 3.3 measured by reference to a percentage of Four Quarter EBITDA, and such Refinancing would cause the
percentage of Four Quarter EBITDA restriction to be exceeded if calculated based on the Four Quarter EBITDA on the date of such Refinancing, such percentage of Four Quarter EBITDA restriction shall not be deemed to be exceeded (and such newly
Incurred Indebtedness shall be deemed permitted) to the extent the principal amount of such newly Incurred Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being Refinanced, plus the Related Costs Incurred or payable in
connection with such Refinancing; and (z) if any Indebtedness is Incurred to Refinance Indebtedness initially Incurred (or, Indebtedness Incurred to Refinance Indebtedness initially Incurred) in reliance on any provision of
Section 3.3 measured by a dollar amount, such dollar amount shall not be deemed to be exceeded (and such newly Incurred Indebtedness shall be deemed permitted) to the extent the principal amount of such newly Incurred Indebtedness does not
exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being Refinanced, plus the Related Costs Incurred or payable in connection with such Refinancing. Accrual of interest or dividends, the accretion of accreted value, the accretion or amortization of
original issue discount, the payment of interest or dividends in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, the payment of dividends on Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock in the form of additional shares of Disqualified Stock or
Preferred Stock of the same class, the accretion of original issue discount or liquidation preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange
rate of currencies will not be deemed to be an Incurrence of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock for purposes of this covenant (or any category of Permitted Liens described in the definition thereof). Guarantees of, or obligations in
respect of letters of credit relating to, Indebtedness that are otherwise included in the determination of a particular amount of Indebtedness shall not be included in the determination of such amount of Indebtedness, provided that the
Incurrence of the Indebtedness represented by such guarantee or letter of credit, as the case may be, was in compliance with this covenant. 

(d)     For purposes of determining compliance with any provision of this Section 3.3 (or any category of Permitted Liens
described in the definition thereof) measured by a dollar amount or by reference to a percentage of Four Quarter EBITDA, in each case, the principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant
currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was Incurred or Liens securing such Indebtedness were granted, in the case of term debt, or first committed or first Incurred (or granted) (whichever yields the lower U.S.
dollar-equivalent), in the case of revolving credit debt or delayed draw debt, or first issued, in the case of Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock; provided that if such Indebtedness is Incurred (or commitments established) or Disqualified
Stock or Preferred Stock issued to Refinance other Indebtedness (or unutilized commitments in respect of such Indebtedness), Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock denominated in a foreign currency, and such Refinancing would cause the applicable
provision of this Section 3.3 (or category of Permitted Liens) to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such Refinancing, such provision of this Section 3.3 (or category of Permitted
Liens) shall be deemed not to have been exceeded to the extent the principal amount of such newly Incurred Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness or the maximum fixed repurchase price amount of such Disqualified Stock
or Preferred Stock, as the case may be, being Refinanced (plus the Related Costs in connection therewith). 

  
 71 

 (e)     The principal amount of any Indebtedness Incurred (or commitments
established) and the maximum fixed repurchase price amount of Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock issued to Refinance other Indebtedness (or unutilized commitments in respect of such Indebtedness), if Incurred in a different currency from the
Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock being Refinanced, shall be calculated for all purposes under this Indenture (including for purposes of the definition of “Permitted Liens”) based on the currency exchange rate applicable
to the currencies in which such respective Indebtedness (or unutilized commitments in respect of such Indebtedness), Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is denominated that is in effect on the date of such Refinancing. 

SECTION 3.4 Limitation on Restricted Payments.

 (c)    As of the Issue
Date, all of the Issuer’s Subsidiaries are Restricted Subsidiaries. The Issuer will not permit any Unrestricted Subsidiary to become a Restricted Subsidiary except pursuant to Section 3.14. For purposes of designating any Restricted

amount determined as set forth in the last sentence of the definition of “Investments.” Such designation will only be permitted if a Restricted Payment or Permitted Investment in such amount would be permitted at such time and if such
Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. Unrestricted Subsidiaries will not be subject to any of the covenants set forth in this Indenture. 

(d)    For purposes of this Section 3.4, if any Investment or Restricted Payment (or a portion thereof) would be

permitted to be made in reliance on the applicable exception as of the date of such reclassification.

payment by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary made as a mandatory principal redemption or other payment in respect of Subordinated Indebtedness pursuant to an “AHYDO saver” provision of any agreement or instrument in respect of
Subordinated Indebtedness, and the Issuer’s determination in good faith of the amount of any such “AHYDO saver” mandatory principal redemption or other payment shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes under this Indenture.

by a Lien on such property or assets and the proceeds thereof that is senior in priority to such Liens; or (2) in all other cases, the Notes and the applicable Guarantee are secured by a Lien on such property or assets and the proceeds
thereof equally and ratably with or prior to such Liens. 
 (b)    Any Lien which is granted to secure the Notes or such
Guarantee under Section 3.5(a) shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged at the same time as the release of the Lien (other than a release following enforcement of remedies in respect of such Lien or the Obligations secured
by such Lien) that gave rise to the obligation to secure the Notes or such Guarantee under Section 3.5(a). 

  
 80 

 (c)    With respect to any Lien securing Indebtedness that was permitted to
secure such Indebtedness at the time of the Incurrence of such Indebtedness, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness. The “Increased Amount” of any Indebtedness shall mean any increase
in the amount of such Indebtedness in connection with any accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same
terms, accretion of original issue discount or liquidation preference, the Related Costs Incurred or payable in connection therewith and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of
currencies or increases in the value of property securing Indebtedness. 
 SECTION 3.6 Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting
Subsidiaries. The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than the Guarantors) to, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or
consensual restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary (other than the Guarantors) to:

Company;

Issuer’s ability to make anticipated principal or interest payments on the Notes (as determined by the Issuer in good faith) or (ii) such encumbrances and restrictions contained in any agreement or instrument taken as a whole are
not materially less favorable to the Holders than the encumbrances and restrictions contained in this Indenture or the Senior Credit Agreement (as determined by the Issuer in good faith); 

(xii)    any encumbrance or restriction contained in Secured Indebtedness otherwise permitted to be
Incurred pursuant to Section 3.3 and Section 3.5 to the extent limiting the right of the debtor to dispose of the assets securing such Indebtedness;

Section 3.6; provided that such encumbrances and restrictions contained in any such amendment, modification, restatement, renewal, increase, supplement, refunding, replacement or refinancing are, in the good faith judgment of the Issuer,
not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, than the encumbrances and restrictions prior to such amendment, modification, restatement, renewal, increase, supplement, refunding, replacement or refinancing. 

For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 3.6, (i) the priority of any Preferred Stock in receiving dividends or
liquidating distributions prior to dividends or liquidating distributions being paid on common stock shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make distributions on Capital Stock and (ii) the subordination of loans or advances
made to the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer to other Indebtedness Incurred by the Issuer or any such Restricted Subsidiary shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make loans or advances. 

SECTION 3.7 Asset Sales. 

(a)    The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, cause or make an Asset Sale, unless:

 (i)    the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, receives consideration
(including by way of relief from, or by any other person assuming responsibility for, any liabilities, contingent or otherwise) at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value (on the date a legally binding commitment for such
Asset Sale was entered into) of the assets sold or otherwise disposed of; and 

  
 83 

 (ii)    except in the case of a Permitted Asset Swap, at
least 75.0% of the consideration therefor, together with all other Asset Sales since the Issue Date (on a cumulative basis), received by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents or
Replacement Assets; provided, however, that the amount of: 
 (1)    any liabilities (as
shown on the Issuer’s most recent consolidated balance sheet or in the footnotes thereto, or if incurred, accrued or increased subsequent to the date of such balance sheet, such liabilities that would have been reflected on the Issuer’s
consolidated balance sheet or in the footnotes thereto if such incurrence, accrual or increase had taken place on or prior to the date of such balance sheet, as determined by the Issuer) of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary, other than
liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or the Guarantees or that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets or Equity Interests (or are otherwise extinguished in connection with the transactions relating to such Asset
Sale) pursuant to a written agreement that releases or indemnifies the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from such liabilities; 

(2)    any notes or other obligations or other securities or assets received by the Issuer or such
Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash or Cash Equivalents, or by their terms are required to be satisfied for cash or Cash Equivalents (to the extent of the cash or Cash
Equivalents received) within 180 days of the receipt thereof; and 
 (3)    any Designated Non-cash Consideration received by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in such Asset Sale having an aggregate Fair Market Value, taken together with all other Designated
Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (3) that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed the greater of (x) $75.0 million and (y) 15.0% of Four Quarter EBITDA, at the
time of the receipt of such Designated Non-cash Consideration (with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Non-cash Consideration being measured on the date a
legally binding commitment for such disposition (or, if later, for the payment of such item) was entered into and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value); 

shall each be deemed to be Cash Equivalents for the purposes of this clause (ii). 

(b)    Within 365 days after the Issuer’s or any Restricted Subsidiary’s receipt of the Net Cash Proceeds of any
Asset Sale, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary may apply an amount equal to the Net Cash Proceeds from such Asset Sale, at its option: 

(i)    to reduce Obligations under the Senior Credit Agreement and, in the case of revolving loans, to
correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto; 

  
 84 

 (ii)    to reduce Obligations under Indebtedness (other than
Subordinated Indebtedness) that is secured by a Lien, which Lien is permitted by this Indenture and, in the case of revolving loans, to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto; 

(iii)    to reduce Obligations under (x) Pari Passu Indebtedness of the Issuer or the
Guarantors (provided that if the Issuer or any Guarantor shall so reduce such Obligations under Pari Passu Indebtedness other than the Notes, the Issuer will (A) equally and ratably reduce Obligations under the Notes as provided in
Article V or through open-market purchases (to the extent such purchases are at or above 100.0% of the principal amount thereof) or (B) make an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth below for an Asset Sale Offer) to all
Holders to purchase at a purchase price equal to no less than 100.0% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, the principal amount of Notes that would be redeemed under clause (A) above) or
(y) Indebtedness of a Non-Guarantor Subsidiary, in each case, other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or another Restricted Subsidiary (and, in the case of revolving loans, to correspondingly
reduce commitments with respect thereto); 
 (iv)    to make an investment in any one or more businesses
(provided that if such investment is in the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock of a Person, such acquisition results in such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer), assets (other than working capital assets), or property
or capital expenditures, in each case used or useful in a Similar Business; 
 (v)    to make an
investment in any one or more businesses (provided that if such investment is in the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock of a Person, such acquisition results in such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer), properties
(other than working capital assets) or assets (other than working capital assets) that replace the businesses, properties and/or assets that are the subject of such Asset Sale; or 

(vi)    any combination of the foregoing; 

provided that (x) the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries will be deemed to have applied the Net Cash Proceeds pursuant to the
provisions described in clauses (iv) and (v) of this Section 3.7(b) if and to the extent that, within 365 days after the receipt of the Net Cash Proceeds of an Asset Sale, the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, has entered into
and not abandoned or rejected a binding agreement to make an investment pursuant to the provision described in clause (iv) and (v) of this Section 3.7(b), and that investment is thereafter completed within 545 days following receipt of such Net
Cash Proceeds and (y) the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary may elect to make an investment pursuant to clauses (iv) or (v) of this Section 3.7(b) prior to receiving Net Cash Proceeds attributable to any given Asset Sale
(provided that such investment shall be made no earlier than the earliest of notice to the Trustee of the relevant Asset Sale, execution of a definitive agreement for the relevant Asset Sale, and consummation of the relevant Asset Sale) and
deem the amount so invested to be applied pursuant to and in accordance with either or both of such clauses with respect to such Asset Sale. 

  
 85 

 (c)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that repatriation to the
United States of any or all of the Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sales by a Foreign Subsidiary (x) is prohibited or delayed by applicable local law or (y) would have a material adverse tax consequence (taking into account
any foreign tax credit or other net benefit actually realized in connection with such repatriation that would not otherwise be realized), as determined by the Issuer in its sole discretion, the portion of such Net Cash Proceeds so affected will not
be required to be applied in compliance with this Section 3.7, and such amounts may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary; provided that clause (x) of this Section 3.7(c) shall apply to such amounts for so long, but only
for so long, as the applicable local law will not permit repatriation to the United States (the Issuer hereby agreeing to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the applicable Foreign Subsidiary to take all actions reasonably required by the
applicable local law, applicable organizational impediments or other impediment to permit such repatriation), and if such repatriation of any of such affected Net Cash Proceeds is permitted under the applicable local law and is not subject to clause
(y) of this Section 3.7(c), then such repatriation will be promptly effected and such repatriated Net Cash Proceeds will be applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof) in compliance with this
Section 3.7. The time periods set forth in this Section 3.7 shall not start until such time as the Net Cash Proceeds may be repatriated (whether or not such repatriation actually occurs). 

(d)    Pending the final application of any such amount of Net Cash Proceeds, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary may
temporarily reduce Indebtedness under a revolving credit facility, if any, or otherwise invest or utilize such Net Cash Proceeds in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture. Any amount of the Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale that is not
invested or applied as provided and within the time period set forth in Section 3.7(b) will be deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds”; provided that any amount of proceeds offered to Holders pursuant to Section 3.7(b)(iii)(x)
or pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer made at any time after the Asset Sale shall be deemed to have been applied as required and shall not be deemed to be Excess Proceeds without regard to the extent to which such offer is accepted by the Holders. When
the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $50.0 million, the Issuer shall make an offer (an “Asset Sale Offer”) to all Holders of Notes and, if required by the terms of any Pari Passu Indebtedness, to all holders of such
Pari Passu Indebtedness, to purchase the maximum principal amount of such Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness, as appropriate, on a pro rata basis, that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100.0%
of the principal amount thereof (or in the event such Pari Passu Indebtedness was issued with original issue discount, 100.0% of the accreted value thereof), plus accrued and unpaid interest and additional interest, if any (or such lesser price, if
any, as may be provided by the terms of such Pari Passu Indebtedness), to (but not including) the date fixed for the closing of such offer, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture and the agreement governing such Pari Passu
Indebtedness. The Issuer will commence an Asset Sale Offer with respect to Excess Proceeds within 10 Business Days after the date that Excess Proceeds exceed $50.0 million by transmitting electronically or by mailing to the Holders the notice
required pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, with a copy to the Trustee or otherwise in accordance with the procedures of DTC. The Issuer may satisfy the foregoing obligations with respect to such Net Cash Proceeds from an Asset Sale by making
an Asset Sale Offer with respect to such Net Cash Proceeds at any time prior to the expiration of the application period or by electing to make an Asset Sale Offer with respect to such Net Cash Proceeds before the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds
exceeds $50.0 million. 

  
 86 

 (e)    To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes and any other Pari
Passu Indebtedness tendered or otherwise surrendered in connection with an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Issuer may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture. If the
aggregate principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered or otherwise surrendered by holders thereof exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes and the Issuer or its agent shall select such Pari Passu
Indebtedness to be purchased in the manner described below. Upon completion of any such Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero. To the extent the Excess Proceeds exceed the outstanding aggregate principal amount of
the Notes (and, if required by the terms thereof, all Pari Passu Indebtedness), the Issuer need only make an Asset Sale Offer up to the outstanding aggregate principal amount of Notes (and any such Pari Passu Indebtedness), and any additional Excess
Proceeds shall not be subject to this Section 3.7 and shall be permitted to be used for any purpose in the Issuer’s discretion. 

(f)    The Issuer will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the
Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations to the extent such laws or regulations are applicable in connection with the purchase of the Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws
or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Indenture, the Issuer will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Indenture by virtue thereof. 

(g)    The provisions under this Indenture relating to the Issuer’s obligation to make an offer to purchase the Notes
as a result of an Asset Sale, including the definition of “Asset Sale,” may be waived or modified at any time (including after Net Cash Proceeds have been received) with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount
of the Notes then outstanding. 
 (h)    If more Notes are tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer than the Issuer is
required to purchase, selection of such Notes for purchase will be made in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which such Notes are listed (to the extent the Trustee knows of such listing) or if
such Notes are not listed, on a pro rata basis (with adjustments so that only Notes in denominations of the Minimum Denomination or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof shall be purchased), by lot or by such other method as the Trustee
shall deem fair and appropriate (and in such manner as complies with applicable legal requirements); provided that the selection of Notes for purchase shall not result in a Noteholder with a principal amount of Notes less than the Minimum
Denomination. No Note will be repurchased in part if less than the Minimum Denomination of such Note would be left outstanding. 

(i)    Notices of an Asset Sale Offer shall be mailed by first class mail, postage prepaid, or sent electronically, at
least 10 but not more than 60 days before the purchase date to each Holder of Notes at such Holder’s registered address or otherwise in accordance with DTC procedures, except that such notice may be delivered more than 60 days prior to the
purchase date if such purchase is delayed because the receipt by the Issuer of the relevant Net Cash Proceeds has been delayed, in which case the purchase date shall be the date on which the Net Cash Proceeds are received. If any Note is to be
purchased in part only, any notice of purchase that relates to such Note shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof that has been or is to be purchased. 

  
 87 

 (j)    A new Note in principal amount equal to the unpurchased portion of any
Note purchased in part will be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Note. On and after the purchase date, unless the Issuer defaults in payment of the purchase price, interest shall cease to accrue on Notes or
portions thereof purchased. 
 (k)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, Asset Sales that are necessary or advisable (as
determined by the Issuer in good faith) in order to consummate any acquisition of any Person, business or assets or any Investment or are of non-core assets acquired in connection with any acquisition of any
Person, business or assets or any Investment, shall not be subject to the requirements set forth in Section 3.7(a)(i) and Section 3.7(a)(ii). 

SECTION 3.8 Transactions with Affiliates. 

(a)    The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, make any
payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction or series of transactions, contract, agreement, understanding,
loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Issuer involving aggregate consideration in excess of $20.0 million (each of the foregoing, an “Affiliate Transaction”), unless: 

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

(ii)    with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving
aggregate consideration in excess of $50.0 million, the Issuer delivers to the Trustee a resolution adopted in good faith by the majority of the Board of Directors of the Issuer or any direct or indirect parent of the Issuer, approving such
Affiliate Transaction, together with an Officer’s Certificate certifying such resolution. 
 (b)    For purposes of
Section 3.8(a), any Affiliate Transaction shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements set forth in Section 3.8(a) if such Affiliate Transaction is approved by a majority of the Disinterested Directors. 

(c)    The provisions of Section 3.8(a) will not apply to the following: 

(i)    (a) transactions between or among the Issuer and/or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (or an
entity that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such transaction) and (b) any merger, amalgamation or consolidation of the Issuer and any direct or indirect parent of the Issuer, provided that such parent entity shall
have no material liabilities and no material assets other than cash, Cash Equivalents and the Capital Stock of the Issuer or another parent of the Issuer and such merger, amalgamation or consolidation is otherwise in compliance with the terms of
this Indenture; 

  
 88 

 (ii)    (a) Restricted Payments permitted by this
Indenture (including any transaction specifically excluded from the definition of the term “Restricted Payments,” including pursuant to the exceptions contained in the definition thereof and the parenthetical exclusions of such definition)
and (b) Permitted Investments; 
 (iii)    transactions in which the Issuer or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, delivers to the Trustee a letter from an Independent Financial Advisor stating that such transaction is fair to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view or meets the
requirements of Section 3.8(a)(i); 
 (iv)    payments, loans, advances or guarantees (or cancellation of
loans, advances or guarantees) to future, present or former employees, officers, directors, managers, consultants or independent contractors of the Issuer or any Subsidiary (or of any direct or indirect parent of the Issuer) or guarantees in respect
thereof for bona fide business purposes or in the ordinary course of business; 
 (v)    any agreement or
arrangement as in effect as of the Issue Date or as thereafter amended, supplemented or replaced (to the extent such amendment, supplement or replacement agreement is not materially more disadvantageous to the Holders, in the good faith judgment of
the Issuer, when taken as a whole as compared to the original agreement as in effect on the Issue Date) or any transaction or payments contemplated thereby; 

(vi)    the existence of, or the performance by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of its
obligations under the terms of any stockholders or similar agreement (including any registration rights agreement or purchase agreement related thereto) to which it is a party as of the Issue Date or similar transactions, arrangements or agreements
which it may enter into thereafter; provided, however, that the existence of, or the performance by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of its obligations under, any future amendment to any such existing transaction,
arrangement or agreement or under any similar transaction, arrangement or agreement entered into after the Issue Date shall only be permitted by this clause (vi) to the extent that the terms of any such existing transaction, arrangement or
agreement, together with all amendments thereto, taken as a whole, or new transaction, arrangement or agreement are not otherwise more disadvantageous to the Holders in any material respect, in the good faith judgment of the Issuer, when taken as a
whole as compared with the original transaction, arrangement or agreement as in effect on the Issue Date; 

(vii)    transactions with customers, clients, suppliers or purchasers or sellers of goods or services, in
each case, in the ordinary course of business and otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture, which are fair to the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries (as reasonably determined by the Issuer) or are on terms at least as favorable
as might reasonably have been obtained at such time from an unaffiliated party (as reasonably determined by the Issuer); 

(viii)    any transaction effected as part of a Qualified Receivables Financing; 

  
 89 

 (ix)    the sale, issuance or transfer of Equity Interests

(other than Disqualified Stock) or any investments by a direct or indirect parent of the Issuer in Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Issuer (and payment of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses Incurred by a direct or indirect parent of the Issuer in connection therewith); 

(xi)    any transaction with a Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary) that would constitute an
Affiliate Transaction solely because the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary owns an Equity Interest in or otherwise controls such Person; provided that, no Affiliate of the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries other than the Issuer or a
Restricted Subsidiary shall have a beneficial interest or otherwise participate in such Person; 

(xii)    transactions between the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and any Person that would
constitute an Affiliate Transaction solely because such Person is a director or such Person has a director which is also a director of the Issuer or any direct or indirect parent of the Issuer; provided, however, that such director
abstains from voting as a director of the Issuer or such direct or indirect parent of the Issuer, as the case may be, on any matter involving such other Person; 

(xiii)    the entering into of any tax sharing agreement or arrangement; 

(xiv)    transactions to effect the Transactions and the payment of all transaction, underwriting,
commitment and other fees and expenses related to the Transactions;

or grants in cash, securities or otherwise pursuant to, or the funding of, employment arrangements, equity purchase agreements, stock options and stock ownership plans or similar employee benefit plans approved by the Board of Directors of the
Issuer or of a direct or indirect parent of the Issuer or of a Restricted Subsidiary, as appropriate, in good faith; 

(xvii)    (i) any employment, consulting, service or termination agreement, or customary

in the ordinary course of business or as otherwise approved in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Issuer or of a Restricted Subsidiary or a direct or indirect parent of the Issuer, as appropriate; 

(xviii)    investments by Affiliates in Indebtedness or Equity Interests of the Issuer or any of its
Subsidiaries (and payment of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any direct or indirect parent of the Issuer in connection therewith), so long as non-Affiliates were also offered the opportunity to invest in such Indebtedness or Equity Interests, and transactions with Affiliates solely in their capacity as holders of Indebtedness or Equity Interests of the
Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries, to the extent such transaction is with all holders of such class (and there are such non-Affiliate holders) and such Affiliates are treated no more favorably than all other
holders of such class generally;

its Restricted Subsidiaries of their obligations under the terms of, any customary registration rights agreement to which they are a party or become a party in the future;

SECTION 3.9 Change of Control. 

(a)    Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control with respect to any series of Notes, each Holder of such Notes of such
series will have the right to require the Issuer to purchase all or any part of such Holder’s Notes of such series at a purchase price in cash (the “Change of Control Payment”) equal to 101.0% of the principal amount thereof,
plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to (but not including) the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record of each applicable series on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date
falling prior to or on the purchase date), except to the extent the Issuer has previously elected to redeem all of the Notes of such series pursuant to Article V. 

(b)    Prior to or within 30 days following any Change of Control, except to the extent that the Issuer has exercised its
right to redeem all of the Notes of the applicable series pursuant to Article V, the Issuer shall deliver a notice (a “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder of the applicable series with a copy to the Trustee or otherwise in
accordance with the procedures of DTC, describing: 

  
 91 

 (i)    that a Change of Control has occurred or may occur and
that such Holder has, or upon such occurrence will have, the right to require the Issuer to purchase such Holder’s Notes of such series at a purchase price in cash equal to 101.0% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid
interest, if any, to (but not including) the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on a record date to receive interest on the relevant interest payment date falling prior to or on the purchase date); 

(ii)    the transaction or transactions that constitute or are expected to constitute such Change of
Control; 
 (iii)    the purchase date (which shall be no earlier than 10 days nor later than 60 days

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

(v)    that unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Payment, all Notes accepted

of $1,000 in excess thereof; 
 (ix)    if such notice is delivered prior to the occurrence of a Change
of Control, stating that the Change of Control Offer is conditional on the occurrence of such Change of Control and that the Change of Control Payment Date may, in the Issuer’s discretion, be delayed until such time as the Change of Control has
occurred; and 

  
 92 

 (x)    the other instructions determined by the Issuer,
consistent with this Section 3.9, that a Holder must follow in order to have its Notes purchased. 

(c)    Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.9, the Issuer will not be required to make a Change
of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by
the Issuer and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer. 
 (d)    A
Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, and conditioned upon such Change of Control. 

(e)    If Holders of not less than 90.0% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes of any series validly
tender and do not withdraw such Notes in a Change of Control Offer and the Issuer, or any third party making a Change of Control Offer in lieu of the Issuer pursuant to this Section 3.9, purchases all of the Notes of such series validly
tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Issuer or such third party will have the right, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following such purchase pursuant to the Change of Control
Offer, to redeem all Notes of such series that remain outstanding following such purchase at a price in cash equal to 101.0% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to but excluding the date of the redemption.

(iii)    deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Trustee for cancellation the Notes so accepted together
with an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee stating that such Notes or portions thereof have been tendered to and purchased by the Issuer.

a result of a Change of Control, including the definition of “Change of Control,” may be waived or modified at any time with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding. 

  
 93 

 SECTION 3.10 Additional Guarantors. 

(a)    If, after the Issue Date, (x) (1) any Restricted Subsidiary (including any newly formed, newly
acquired or newly redesignated Restricted Subsidiary, but excluding any Receivables Subsidiary) that is not then a Guarantor enters in to any guarantee of or otherwise Incurs any Indebtedness under the Existing Credit Agreement or
(2) any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Domestic Subsidiary (including any newly formed, newly acquired or newly redesignated Restricted Subsidiary, but excluding any Receivables Subsidiary) that is not then a Guarantor enters into any
guarantee of or otherwise Incurs any Indebtedness under any other Senior Credit Agreement or guarantees any capital markets Indebtedness of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, in each case, with an aggregate principal amount in excess
of $100.0 million (“Certain Capital Markets Debt”) or (y) the Issuer otherwise elects to have any Restricted Subsidiary become a Guarantor, then, in each such case, the Issuer shall cause such Restricted Subsidiary,
(in the case of clause (x)) within 25 Business Days of the date that such Indebtedness has been guaranteed, to execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture pursuant to which such Restricted Subsidiary shall become a Guarantor under
this Indenture governing the Notes providing for a Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary that (in the case of clause (x)) ranks pari passu (on an unsecured basis) with such Indebtedness or such guarantee of such Indebtedness under the
Senior Credit Agreement or such Certain Capital Markets Debt so Incurred or provided by such Restricted Subsidiary. A form of supplemental indenture for such purpose is attached as Exhibit D hereto. 

(b)    Each Guarantee will be limited to an amount not to exceed the maximum amount that can be guaranteed by that
Restricted Subsidiary without rendering the Guarantee, as it relates to such Restricted Subsidiary, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.

 (c)    Each Guarantee shall be released upon the terms and in accordance with the provisions of Article X. 

SECTION 3.11 [Reserved]. 

SECTION 3.12 Compliance Certificate; Statement by Officers as to Default. The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days
after the end of each fiscal year of the Issuer ending after the Issue Date, an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that to the best knowledge of the signer thereof on behalf of the Issuer, the Issuer is or is not in default in the performance
and observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture (without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice provided hereunder) and, if the Issuer (through its own action or omission or through the action or
omission of any Guarantor as applicable) shall be in default, specifying all such defaults and the nature and status thereof of which such signer may have knowledge. 

So long as any of the Notes are outstanding, the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee, within 30 days upon any Officer becoming aware of any
Default or Event of Default (unless such Default or Event of Default has been cured or waived within such 30 day period), an Officer’s Certificate specifying such Default or Event of Default and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to
take with respect thereto. 

  
 94 

 SECTION 3.13 [Reserved]. 

SECTION 3.14 Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries. 

(a)    The Board of Directors of the Issuer or any direct or indirect parent of the Issuer may designate any Subsidiary of
the Issuer (including any existing Subsidiary and any newly acquired or newly formed Subsidiary of the Issuer but excluding the Issuer) to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary unless such Subsidiary or any of its Subsidiaries owns any Equity Interests or
Indebtedness of, or owns or holds any Lien on any property of, the Issuer or any other Subsidiary of the Issuer that is not a Subsidiary of the Subsidiary to be so designated; provided, however, that the Subsidiary to be so designated
and its Subsidiaries do not at the time of designation have any Indebtedness pursuant to which the lender or investor has recourse to any of the assets of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, further,
however, that either: 
 (i)    the Subsidiary to be so designated has total consolidated assets
of $1,000 or less; or 
 (ii)    if such Subsidiary has consolidated assets greater than $1,000, then
such designation would be permitted under Section 3.4. 
 (b)    The Board of Directors of the Issuer or any direct
or indirect parent of the Issuer may designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that immediately after giving effect to such designation and any related transactions: 

(x)    (1)    the Issuer could Incur $1.00 of additional Indebtedness as Ratio Debt; or

 (2)    the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio would be equal to or greater than such ratio immediately prior
to such designation; and 
 (y)    no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. 

(c)    Any such designation by the Board of Directors of the Issuer or any direct or indirect parent of the Issuer shall
be evidenced to the Trustee by promptly filing with the Trustee a copy of the resolution of the Board of Directors of the Issuer or any direct or indirect parent of the Issuer giving effect to such designation and an Officer’s Certificate
certifying that such designation complied with this Section 3.14. 
 SECTION 3.15 Covenant Suspension. 

(a)    If on any date following the Issue Date (i) the Notes have Investment Grade Ratings from both Rating
Agencies, and (ii) no Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture (the occurrence of the events described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) being collectively referred to as a “Covenant Suspension
Event”), the Guarantees will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged and the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries will not be subject to the covenants or provisions contained in Section 3.3, Section 3.4,
Section 3.6, Section 3.7, Section 3.8, Section 3.10, Section 4.1(a)(iv), Section 4.1(a)(v) and Section 4.1(b) (collectively, the “Suspended Covenants”). 

  
 95 

 (b)    In the event that the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries are not
subject to the Suspended Covenants under this Indenture for any period of time pursuant to Section 3.15(a), and on any subsequent date (the “Reversion Date”) the Issuer obtains actual knowledge that one or both of the Rating
Agencies has withdrawn their Investment Grade Rating or downgraded the rating assigned to the Notes below an Investment Grade Rating, then the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries will thereafter again be subject to the Suspended Covenants under
this Indenture with respect to future events. The period of time between the occurrence of a Covenant Suspension Event and the Reversion Date is referred to in this Indenture as the “Suspension Period.” 

(c)    Upon the occurrence of a Covenant Suspension Event, the amount of Excess Proceeds from Net Cash Proceeds shall be
reset at zero. 
 (d)    With respect to Restricted Payments made after the Reversion Date, the amount of Restricted
Payments made will be calculated as though Section 3.4 had been in effect prior to, but not during, the Suspension Period; provided that no Subsidiaries may be designated as Unrestricted Subsidiaries during the Suspension Period, unless
such designation would have complied with Section 3.4 as if Section 3.4 were in effect during such period. All Indebtedness Incurred, or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock issued, during the Suspension Period will be classified to have
been Incurred or issued pursuant to Section 3.3(b)(iii). In addition, for purposes of Section 3.8, all agreements and arrangements entered into by the Issuer and any Restricted Subsidiary with an Affiliate of the Issuer during the Suspension
Period prior to such Reversion Date will be deemed to have been entered into on or prior to the Issue Date and for purposes of Section 3.6, all contracts entered into during the Suspension Period prior to such Reversion Date that contain any of
the restrictions contemplated by Section 3.6 will be deemed to have been existing on the Issue Date. 

(e)    During the Suspension Period, any reference in the definitions of “Permitted Liens” and
“Unrestricted Subsidiary” to Section 3.3 or any provision thereof shall be construed as if Section 3.3 were in effect during the Suspension Period. 

(f)    Notwithstanding that the Suspended Covenants may be reinstated, no Default or Event of Default will be deemed to
have occurred as a result of any actions taken by the Issuer or any Subsidiary (including for the avoidance of doubt any failure to comply with the Suspended Covenants) or other events that occurred during any Suspension Period (or upon termination
of the Suspension Period or after that time arising out of events that occurred or actions taken during the Suspension Period) and the Issuer and any Subsidiary will be permitted, without causing a Default or Event of Default or breach of any kind
under this Indenture, to honor, comply with or otherwise perform any contractual commitments or obligations entered into during a Suspension Period following a Reversion Date and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby. 

(g)    The Trustee will have no obligation to (i) independently determine or verify if such events have
occurred, (ii) make any determination regarding the impact of actions taken during the Suspension Period on the Issuer and its Subsidiaries’ future compliance with their 

  
 96 

 
covenants or (iii) notify the Holders of any Covenant Suspension Event or Reversion Date. The Issuer should give the Trustee written notice of any Covenant Suspension Event not later
than five Business Days after such Covenant Suspension Event has occurred, but failure to so notify the Trustee shall not invalidate any Covenant Suspension Event and shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default by the Issuer. In the absence
of such notice, the Trustee may assume the Suspended Covenants apply and are in full force and effect. The Issuer should give the Trustee written notice of any occurrence of a Reversion Date not later than five Business Days after such Reversion
Date, but failure to so notify the Trustee shall not invalidate the occurrence of the Reversion Date and shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default by the Issuer. After any such notice of the occurrence of a Reversion Date, the Trustee shall
assume the Suspended Covenants apply and are in full force and effect. 
 ARTICLE IV 

Merger; Consolidation or Sale of Assets 

SECTION 4.1 When the Issuer May Merge or Otherwise Dispose of Assets. 

(a)    The Issuer may not consolidate, merge or amalgamate with or into or wind up into (whether or not the Issuer is the
surviving Person), or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties or assets in one or more related transactions to any Person unless: 

(i)    the Issuer is the surviving Person or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation,
merger, amalgamation or winding up (if other than the Issuer) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition will have been made is a corporation, partnership or limited liability company organized or existing
under the laws of the United States, any state thereof, the District of Columbia, or any territory thereof (the Issuer or such Person, as the case may be, being herein called the “Successor Company”); 

(ii)    the Successor Company (if other than the Issuer) expressly assumes all the obligations of the
Issuer under this Indenture and the Notes pursuant to supplemental indentures or other documents or instruments; 

(iii)    immediately after giving effect to such transaction (and treating any Indebtedness that becomes an
obligation of the Successor Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries as a result of such transaction as having been Incurred by the Successor Company or such Restricted Subsidiary at the time of such transaction), no Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing; 
 (iv)    immediately after giving Pro Forma Effect to such transaction and
any related transactions, either: 
 (1)    the Issuer (or, if applicable, the Successor Company) would
be permitted to Incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness as Ratio Debt; or 

  
 97 

 (2)    the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the Issuer (or
the Successor Company, if applicable) and its Restricted Subsidiaries would be equal to or greater than such ratio for the Issuer (or the Successor Company, if applicable) and its Restricted Subsidiaries immediately prior to giving Pro Forma Effect
to such transaction and any related transactions; 
 (v)    if the Successor Company is other than the
Issuer, each Guarantor, unless it is the other party to the transactions described above, shall have by supplemental indenture confirmed that its Guarantee shall apply to such Person’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes; and 

(vi)    the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of
Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger, amalgamation or disposition complies with the provisions described in this Section 4.1(a); provided that (x) in giving such opinion such counsel may rely on an Officer’s
Certificate as to compliance with the foregoing clauses (iii) and (iv) of this Section 4.1(a) and as to matters of fact, and (y) no Opinion of Counsel will be required for a transaction described in the second sentence of the
immediately following paragraph. 
 The Successor Company will succeed to, and be substituted for, the Issuer under this Indenture and the
Notes, and the Issuer will automatically be released and discharged from its obligations under this Indenture and the Notes. Notwithstanding the foregoing clauses (iii) and (iv) of this Section 4.1(a), (a) the Issuer or any Guarantor may
consolidate or amalgamate with, merge into or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or part of its properties and assets to the Issuer or any Guarantor, (b) the Issuer may merge, consolidate or amalgamate with
an Affiliate of the Issuer incorporated or organized solely for the purpose of reincorporating or reorganizing the Issuer in another state of the United States, the District of Columbia or any territory of the United States to the extent the
principal amount of Indebtedness of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries is not increased thereby (unless such increase is permitted by this Indenture), (c) the Issuer may convert (including by way of merger, consolidation or
amalgamation) into a corporation, partnership, limited partnership, limited liability company or trust organized or existing under the laws of a jurisdiction in the United States, (d) the Issuer or Guarantor may change its name and
(e) any Restricted Subsidiary may merge, amalgamate or consolidate into the Issuer. Any Investment expressly permitted under the definition of “Permitted Investments” or otherwise pursuant to Section 3.4 may be structured
as a merger, amalgamation or consolidation. 
 (b)    Subject to Section 10.2, each Guarantor will not, and the
Issuer will not permit any Guarantor to, consolidate, merge or amalgamate with or into or wind up into (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving corporation), or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or
substantially all of its properties or assets in one or more related transactions to, any Person unless such consolidation, merger, amalgamation, winding up, sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition is made in compliance
with Section 3.7 or does not constitute an Asset Sale (other than pursuant to clause (b) of the definition of “Asset Sale”), or unless: 

  
 98 

 (A)    such Guarantor is the surviving Person or the Person
formed by or surviving any such consolidation, merger, amalgamation or winding up (if other than such Guarantor) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition will have been made is a corporation, partnership,
limited partnership, limited liability company or trust organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state thereof, the District of Columbia, or any territory thereof (such Guarantor or such Person, as the case may be, being herein
called the “Successor Guarantor”); 
 (B)    the Successor Guarantor (if other than such
Guarantor) expressly assumes all the obligations of such Guarantor under this Indenture and such Guarantor’s Guarantee pursuant to a supplemental indenture or other documents or instruments; and 

(C)    the Successor Guarantor (if other than such Guarantor) shall have delivered or caused to be
delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger, amalgamation or disposition complies with the provisions described in this Section 4.1(b); provided that
(x) in giving such opinion such counsel may rely on an Officer’s Certificate as to matters of fact, and (y) no Opinion of Counsel will be required for a transaction described in the second sentence of the immediately
following paragraph. 
 Subject to Article X, the Successor Guarantor will succeed to, and be substituted for, such Guarantor under this
Indenture and such Guarantor’s Guarantee, and such Guarantor will automatically be released and discharged from its obligations under this Indenture and such Guarantor’s Guarantee. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section
4.1(b), (1) a Guarantor may merge, consolidate or amalgamate with an Affiliate of the Issuer incorporated or organized solely for the purpose of reincorporating or reorganizing such Guarantor in another state of the United States, the
District of Columbia or any territory of the United States, to the extent the principal amount of Indebtedness of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries is not increased thereby (unless such increase is permitted by this Indenture), (2) a
Guarantor may consolidate, merge or amalgamate with or into or wind up into, or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties and assets to, another Guarantor or the Issuer,
(3) a Guarantor may convert (including by way of merger, consolidation or amalgamation) into a corporation, partnership, limited partnership, limited liability company or trust organized or existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of
organization of such Guarantor or the laws of a jurisdiction in the United States, (4) a Guarantor may change its name and (5) any Restricted Subsidiary may merge, amalgamate or consolidate into any Guarantor;
provided, in the case of this clause (5), that the surviving Person is or becomes a Guarantor upon consummation of such merger, amalgamation or consolidation. 

(c)    For purposes of Section 4.1, the sale, lease, conveyance, assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or
substantially all of the properties and assets of one or more Subsidiaries of the Issuer, which properties and assets, if held by the Issuer instead of such Subsidiaries, would constitute all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the
Issuer on a consolidated basis, shall be deemed to be the transfer of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Issuer. 

  
 99 

 ARTICLE V 

Redemption of Notes 

SECTION 5.1 Applicability of Article. Notes of or within any series that are redeemable in whole or in part before their Stated
Maturity shall be redeemable in accordance with their terms and (except as otherwise specified for Notes of any series in the applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture, as contemplated by Section 2.4) in accordance with this Article V. 

SECTION 5.2 Right of Redemption. 

(a)    Notes of any series may be redeemed, in whole at any time, or in part from time to time, subject to the conditions
and at the Redemption Prices set forth in Paragraph 6 of the applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture, which are hereby incorporated by reference and made a part of this Indenture, together with accrued and unpaid interest to (but not including) the
applicable redemption date. 
 (b)    In connection with any redemption of Notes (including with the net cash proceeds
of an Equity Offering), any such redemption or notice thereof may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to the satisfaction (or waiver by the Issuer in its sole discretion) of one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to,
consummation of any related Equity Offering or Change of Control. In addition, if such redemption or notice is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice may state that, in the Issuer’s discretion, the redemption
date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Issuer in its sole discretion), 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 (or, in the Issuer’s sole determination, may not be) satisfied (or waived by the Issuer in its sole discretion) by the redemption date, or by the redemption date so delayed. 

SECTION 5.3 Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee of Optional and Mandatory Redemptions. 

(a)    If the Issuer elects to redeem Notes pursuant to Section 5.2, the Issuer should furnish to the Trustee, at
least three Business Days for Global Notes and 10 calendar days for Physical Notes before notice of redemption is required to be sent or caused to be sent to Holders pursuant to Section 5.4, an Officer’s Certificate setting forth
(i) the paragraph or subparagraph of such Note and/or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the redemption shall occur, (ii) the Redemption Date, (iii) the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and
(iv) the Redemption Price, but failure to so notify the Trustee shall not invalidate any notice given in accordance with Section 5.4, and shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default by the Issuer. The Issuer may also include
a request in such Officer’s Certificate that the Trustee give the notice of redemption in the Issuer’s name and at its expense and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in Section 5.4. The Issuer shall
deliver to the Trustee such documentation and records as shall enable the Trustee to select the Notes to be redeemed pursuant to this Section 5.3. 

  
 100 

 (b)    Unless otherwise specified for Notes of any series in the applicable
Notes Supplemental Indenture, as contemplated by Section 2.4, if less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee shall select Notes for redemption in compliance with the requirements of the depository and the principal
national securities exchange, if any, on which such Notes are listed (so long as the Trustee knows of such listing), or if such Notes are not so listed, in accordance with the applicable procedures of the depository on a pro rata basis, by lot or by
such other method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate (and in such manner as complies with applicable legal requirements) in integral multiples of $1,000; provided, that the selection of Notes for redemption shall not result in a
Holder with a principal amount of Notes less than the Minimum Denomination. If any Note is to be purchased or redeemed in part only, the notice of purchase or redemption relating to such Note shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof
that has been or is to be purchased or redeemed. A new Note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Note. On and after the applicable Redemption
Date, interest will cease to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption so long as the Issuer has deposited with the Paying Agent funds sufficient to pay the principal of and premium, if any, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any,
on the Notes to be redeemed. 
 (c)    The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer in writing of the Notes selected for
redemption and, in the case of any Notes selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. 

(d)    For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to redemption of
Notes shall relate, in the case of any Note redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Note which has been or is to be redeemed. 

SECTION 5.4 Notice of Redemption. Unless otherwise specified for Notes of any series in the applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture, as
contemplated by Section 2.4, the Issuer shall give or cause to be given in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed not less than 10 nor more than 60 days prior to a
date fixed for redemption (a “Redemption Date”). At the Issuer’s written request delivered at least 15 days (or such shorter period as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee) prior to the Redemption Date, the Trustee
may give notice of redemption in the Issuer’s name and at the Issuer’s expense; provided, however, that redemption notices may be given more than 60 days prior to a Redemption Date, but not more than a year, prior to such
event, if the notice is issued in connection with Article VIII, or if the redemption date is delayed as provided for in Section 5.2(b). 

All notices of redemption shall be prepared by the Issuer and shall state: 

(a)    the Redemption Date, 

(b)    the Redemption Price and the amount of accrued interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date
payable as provided in Section 5.6, if any, 
 (c)    if less than all outstanding Notes are to be
redeemed, the identification of the particular Notes (or portion thereof) to be redeemed, as well as the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be redeemed and the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be outstanding after such partial redemption,

  
 101 

 (d)    in case any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the
notice which relates to such Note shall state that on and after the Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Note, the Holder shall receive, without charge, a new Note or Notes of authorized denominations for the principal amount thereof remaining
unredeemed, 
 (e)    that on the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price (and accrued interest to, but
excluding, the Redemption Date payable as provided in Section 5.6, if any) shall become due and payable upon each such Note, or the portion thereof, to be redeemed, and, unless the Issuer defaults in making the redemption payment, that interest
on Notes called for redemption (or the portion thereof) shall cease to accrue on and after said date, 

(f)    the place or places where such Notes are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price and
accrued interest, if any, 
 (g)    the name and address of the Paying Agent, 

(h)    that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the Redemption
Price, 
 (i)    the CUSIP number, and that no representation is made as to the accuracy or correctness
of the CUSIP number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes, and 
 (j)    the Section of
this Indenture pursuant to which the Notes are to be redeemed. 
 SECTION 5.5 Deposit of Redemption Price. Prior to 12:00 p.m. New
York City time, on any Redemption Date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Issuer is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 2.18) an amount of money
sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and accrued interest on, all the Notes which are to be redeemed on that date. 
 SECTION 5.6
Notes Payable on Redemption Date. Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Notes so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified (together with accrued
interest, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date), and from and after such date (unless the Issuer shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date) such Notes shall
cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Note for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Note shall be paid by the Issuer at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date
(subject to the rights of Holders of record on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date). 

  
 102 

 If any Note called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the
principal (and premium, if any) shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate borne by the Notes. 
 If a Redemption
Date is on or after a Regular Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, the accrued and unpaid interest, if any, shall be paid to the Person in whose name the Note is registered at the close of business on such Regular Record
Date, and no further interest shall be payable to Holders whose Notes shall be subject to redemption by the Issuer. 
 SECTION 5.7 Notes
Redeemed in Part. Any Note which is to be redeemed only in part (pursuant to the provisions of this Article) shall be surrendered at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 2.8 (with, if the Issuer
so requires due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer duly executed by, the Holder thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing), and the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee
upon receipt of an Authentication Order shall authenticate and make available for delivery to the Holder of such Note at the expense of the Issuer, a new Note or Notes, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder, in an aggregate
principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Note so surrendered; provided that each such new Note shall be in the Minimum Denomination and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. 

SECTION 5.8 Offer to Repurchase. In the event that, pursuant to Section 3.7, the Issuer is required to commence an offer to all
Holders to purchase the Notes, including an Asset Sale Offer (an “Offer to Repurchase”), it shall follow the procedures specified below. 

(a)    The Offer to Repurchase shall remain open for the period provided for in Section 3.7(h) (the “Offer
Period”). No later than five Business Days after the termination of the Offer Period (the “Purchase Date”), the Issuer shall apply all Excess Proceeds or Net Cash Proceeds, as applicable (the “Offer
Amount”), to the purchase of Notes and such Pari Passu Indebtedness, if any (in each instance, on a pro rata basis, if applicable) or, if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes and other Indebtedness tendered in response to
the Offer to Repurchase. Payment for any Notes so purchased shall be made pursuant to Section 3.1. 
 (b)    If the
Purchase Date is on or after a Regular Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, shall be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such Regular
Record Date, and no additional interest shall be payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the Offer to Repurchase. 

(c)    Upon the commencement of an Offer to Repurchase, the Issuer shall send electronically, or mail by first class mail,
a notice to the Trustee and each of the Holders. The notice shall contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender Notes pursuant to the Offer to Repurchase. The notice, which shall govern the terms of the Offer to
Repurchase, shall state: 
 (i)    that the Offer to Repurchase is being made pursuant to this
Section 5.8 and Section 3.7, and the length of time the Offer to Repurchase shall remain open; 

  
 103 

 (ii)    the Offer Amount, the purchase price and the Purchase
Date; 
 (iii)    that any Note not tendered or accepted for payment shall continue to accrue interest;

 (iv)    that, unless the Issuer defaults in making such payment, any Note accepted for payment
pursuant to the Offer to Repurchase shall cease to accrue interest after the Purchase Date; 

(v)    that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to an Offer to Repurchase may elect to have
Notes purchased in the Minimum Denomination or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof only; 

(vi)    that Holders electing to have Notes purchased pursuant to any Offer to Repurchase shall 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 Issuer, a Depositary, if appointed by the Issuer, or a Paying Agent at the
address specified in the notice at least three Business Days before the Purchase Date; 
 (vii)    that
Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the Issuer or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives, not later than on the expiration of the Offer Period, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of
the Holder, the principal amount of Notes the Holder delivered for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Notes purchased; 

(viii)    that, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes and, if applicable, Pari Passu Indebtedness, if
any, surrendered by Holders thereof exceeds the Offer Amount, the Trustee shall select the Notes and, if applicable, the Issuer shall select such Pari Passu Indebtedness to be purchased or prepaid, on a pro rata basis based on the principal amount
of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness, if any, surrendered (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Issuer so that only Notes in the Minimum Denomination, or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, shall be purchased); and

 (ix)    that Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part shall be issued new Notes equal in
principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered (or transferred by book-entry transfer). 

(d)    On or before the Purchase Date, the Issuer shall, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a pro rata basis to
the extent necessary, the Offer Amount of Notes or portions thereof tendered pursuant to the Offer to Repurchase, or if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered, and the Issuer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the
Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Issuer in accordance with the terms of this Section 5.8. The Issuer or the Paying
Agent, as the case may be, shall promptly (but in any case 

  
 104 

 
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 Issuer
for purchase, and the Issuer shall promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee, upon written request from the Issuer, shall 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 Issuer to the Holder thereof. The Issuer shall publicly announce the results of the Offer to Repurchase on the
Purchase Date. 
 ARTICLE VI 

Defaults and Remedies 

SECTION 6.1 Events of Default. Each of the following is an Event of Default: 

(i)    a default in any payment of interest on any Note when due continued for 30 days; 

(ii)    a default in the payment of principal or premium, if any, of any Note when due at its Stated
Maturity, upon optional redemption, upon required purchase, upon acceleration or otherwise; 

(iii)    the failure by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to comply for 60 days after
receipt of the written notice referred to below with any of its obligations, covenants or agreements (other than a default pursuant to clause (i) or clause (ii) of this Section 6.1) contained in the Notes or this Indenture;
provided that in the case of a failure to comply with Section 3.2, such period of continuance of such default or breach shall be 90 days after written notice described in this clause (iii) has been given; 

(iv)    the failure by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary to pay the principal amount of any
Indebtedness for borrowed money (other than Indebtedness for borrowed money owing to the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer) within any applicable grace period after final maturity or the acceleration of any such Indebtedness by the
holders thereof because of a default, in each case, if the total amount of such Indebtedness unpaid at final maturity or accelerated exceeds $75.0 million or its foreign currency equivalent; 

(v)    the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:

 (1)    commences a voluntary case; 

(2)    consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in any voluntary case; 

(3)    consents to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for any substantial part of its property; or

  
 105 

 (4)    makes a general assignment for the benefit of its
creditors; 
 or takes any comparable action under any foreign laws relating to insolvency; 

(vi)    a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that: 

(1)    is for relief against the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case; 

(2)    appoints a Custodian of the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary or for any substantial part of its
property; or 
 (3)    orders the winding up or liquidation of the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary;

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

(vii)    failure by the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary to pay final and non-appealable judgments aggregating in excess of $75.0 million or its foreign currency equivalent (net of any amounts which are covered by enforceable insurance policies issued by solvent insurance companies),
which judgments are not discharged, waived or stayed for a period of 60 days after such judgment becomes final and, in the event such judgment is covered by insurance, an enforcement proceeding has been commenced by any creditor upon such judgment
or decree which is not promptly stayed; or 
 (viii)    the Guarantee of a Significant Subsidiary ceases
to be in full force and effect (except as contemplated by the terms thereof or of this Indenture), or any Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary denies in writing that it has any further liability under its Guarantee or gives written notice to
such effect, other than by reason of the termination or discharge of this Indenture or the release of any such Guarantee in accordance with this Indenture, and such Default continues for 10 days. 

The foregoing will constitute Events of Default whatever the reason for any such Event of Default and whether it is voluntary or involuntary
or is effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body. 

However, a default under Section 6.1(iii) will not constitute an Event of Default until the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25.0% in
principal amount of outstanding Notes (which contain such defaults, or such other percentage of principal of outstanding Notes containing such default as specified for Notes of any series in the applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture) notify in
writing the Issuer of the default and such default is not cured within the times specified in Section 6.1(iii) after receipt of such notice. 

  
 106 

 The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any Default or Event of Default with respect
to the Notes unless a written notice of such Default or Event of Default shall have been given to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee by the Issuer or any Holder of Notes. 

SECTION 6.2 Acceleration. If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (v) or (vi) of
Section 6.1 with respect to the Issuer) occurs and is continuing, unless otherwise specified for Notes of any series in the applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture, as contemplated by Section 2.4, the Trustee or the Holders of at least
25.0% in principal amount of outstanding Notes (which contain such defaults) by written notice to the Issuer (and if given by the Holders, the Trustee) may declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued but unpaid interest on all the Notes
to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal and interest will be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default arising from Section 6.1(v) or Section 6.1(vi), with respect to the Issuer, occurs, unless otherwise specified
for Notes of any series in the applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture, as contemplated by Section 2.4, the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on all the Notes (which contain such defaults) will become immediately due and payable
without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders. 
 SECTION 6.3 Other Remedies. If an Event of Default
occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal of or interest on the Notes (which contain such defaults) or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes, this Indenture
(including sums owed to the Trustee and its agents and counsel) and the Guarantees. 
 The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does
not possess any of the Notes (which contain such defaults) or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the
right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. No remedy is exclusive of any other remedy. All available remedies are cumulative. 

SECTION 6.4 Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (which
contain such defaults) by notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes (which contain such defaults), waive, rescind or cancel any declaration of an existing or past Default or Event of Default and its consequences under
this Indenture if such waiver, rescission or cancellation would not conflict with any judgment or decree, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest on, or the principal of, the applicable Notes (other than such
nonpayment of principal or interest that has become due as a result of 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. 
 In the event
of any Event of Default arising from Section 6.1(iv), such Event of Default and all consequences thereof (excluding, however, any resulting payment default) will be annulled, waived and rescinded, automatically and without any action by the Trustee
or the Holders, if prior to 20 days after such Event of Default arose, the Issuer delivers an Officer’s 

  
 107 

 
Certificate to the Trustee stating that (x) the Indebtedness or guarantee that is the basis for such Event of Default has been discharged or (y) the holders thereof have
rescinded or waived the acceleration, notice or action (as the case may be) giving rise to such Event of Default or (z) the default that is the basis for such Event of Default has otherwise been cured. 

SECTION 6.5 Control by Majority. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of outstanding Notes (which contain the applicable
default) may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts
with law or this Indenture or that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability. Prior to taking any action under this Indenture, the Trustee will be entitled
to security or indemnification satisfactory to the Trustee in its sole discretion against all losses, liabilities and expenses that may be caused by taking or not taking such action. 

SECTION 6.6 Limitation on Suits. In case an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to
exercise any of the rights or powers under this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders unless such Holders have provided the Trustee with indemnity or security satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense. Except to
institute suit for the enforcement of payment of principal and interest on any Note of such Holder or after the respective Stated Maturity for such principal or interest payment dates for such interest expressed in such Note, no Holder may pursue
any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless: 
 (i)    such Holder (which holds Notes
containing such default) has previously given the Trustee written notice that an Event of Default is continuing; 

(ii)    Holders of at least 25.0% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes (which contain
such defaults, or such other percentage of principal of outstanding Notes containing such default as specified for Notes of any series in the applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture) have requested in writing that the Trustee pursue the remedy; 

(iii)    such Holders have offered the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it in
respect of any loss, liability or expense; 
 (iv)    the Trustee has not complied with such request
within 60 days after the receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity; and 
 (v)    the
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes (which contain such default) have not given the Trustee a written direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period. 

SECTION 6.7 [Reserved]. 

  
 108 

 SECTION 6.8 Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(i)
or (ii) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer for the whole amount then due and owing (together with interest on any unpaid interest to the extent
lawful) and the amounts provided for in Section 7.6. 
 SECTION 6.9 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee may 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 allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer, its Subsidiaries or their respective creditors or properties and, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, may vote on behalf of the Holders (pursuant to
the written direction of Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes) in any election of a trustee in bankruptcy or other Person performing similar functions, and any Custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby
authorized by each Holder to make payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.6. 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 or reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in such proceeding. 

SECTION 6.10 Priorities. The Trustee shall pay out any money or property received by it in the following order: 

First: to the Trustee for amounts due under Section 7.6; 

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

Third: to the Issuer or, to the extent the Trustee receives any amount for any Guarantor, to such Guarantor as a
court of competent jurisdiction shall direct. 
 The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to
this Section 6.10. At least 15 days before such record date, the Issuer (or the Trustee) shall send to each Holder and the Trustee a notice that states the record date, the payment date and amount to be paid. 

SECTION 6.11 Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against
the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable
costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 6.11 does not apply to a
suit by the Trustee or a suit by Holders of more than 10.0% in outstanding principal amount of the Notes.

 ARTICLE VII 

Trustee 
 SECTION 7.1
Duties of Trustee. 
 (a)    If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise
the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a prudent Person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such Person’s own affairs; provided that
if an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee shall not be under any obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under this Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees at the request or direction of any of the Holders unless such
Holders have offered the Trustee indemnity, security or prefunding satisfactory to the Trustee in its sole discretion against any loss, liability or expense it may incur. 

(b)    Except during the continuance of an Event of Default of which a Responsible Officer has actual knowledge, the
Trustee: 
 (i)    undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth
in this Indenture and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and 

(ii)    in the absence of gross negligence or bad faith on its part, 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 under this Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees, as applicable. However, in the case of any such certificates or
opinions which by any provisions hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall examine such certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture, the Notes and
the Guarantees as the case may be (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein). 

(c)    The Trustee shall not be relieved from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or
its own willful misconduct, except that: 
 (i)    this Section 7.1(c) does not limit the effect of
Section 7.1(b); 
 (ii)    the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith
by a Responsible Officer or Responsible Officers unless it is proved in a final non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;
and 
 (iii)    the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in
good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.5.

it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the Issuer. 
 (e)    Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be
segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
 (f)    No provision of this Indenture, the Notes or
the Guarantees shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or thereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have
reasonable grounds to believe that repayment of such funds or indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. 

(g)    Every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to
the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 7.1. 
 (h)    The Trustee shall 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 shall have offered to the Trustee security, prefunding or indemnity satisfactory to it against
the costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) and liabilities that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction. 

SECTION 7.2 Rights of Trustee. 

(a)    The Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be protected in acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement,
instrument, opinion, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond or any other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person or Persons. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or
matter stated in such document. 
 (b)    Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an
Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on an Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel. 

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

(d)    The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be
authorized or within its rights or powers, provided that such conduct does not constitute willful misconduct or negligence as determined in a final non-appealable decision of a court of competent
jurisdiction. 
 (e)    The Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection, and the advice or Opinion of Counsel with
respect to legal matters relating to this Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect to any action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder or under the Notes and the
Guarantees in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel. 

  
 111 

 (f)    The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into any
statement, warranty or representation, or the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond or other paper or document made or in connection with this
Indenture; moreover, the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into (i) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein, (ii) the occurrence of
any default, or the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Indenture or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (iii) the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument,
opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or
matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Issuer, personally or by agent or attorney and shall incur no
liability or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation. 
 (g)    [Reserved]. 

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

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

(j)    The Trustee may request that the Issuer deliver a certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles
of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture. 
 (k)    The Trustee shall
not have any duty (i) to see to any recording, filing, or depositing of this Indenture or any agreement referred to herein, or to see to the maintenance of any such recording or filing or depositing or to any rerecording, re-filing or redepositing of any thereof or (ii) to see to any insurance. 

(l)    The permissive rights of the Trustee enumerated in this Indenture shall not be construed as a duty. 

SECTION 7.3 Individual Rights of Trustee. 

(a)    Each of the Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may
otherwise deal with the Issuer, the Guarantors or their Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Paying Agent, Note Registrar, co-registrar or
co-Paying Agent may do the same with like rights. However, the Trustee must comply with Section 7.9. 

  
 112 

 (b)    In addition, the Trustee shall be permitted to engage in transactions
with the Issuer; provided, however, that if the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest the Trustee must (i) eliminate such conflict within 90 days of acquiring such conflicting interest, (ii) apply to the SEC
for permission to continue acting as Trustee or (iii) resign. 
 (c)    To the extent permitted by
applicable law, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have a conflicting interest by virtue of being a trustee under this Indenture with respect to Initial Notes and Additional Notes, or a trustee under any other indenture between the Issuer and the
Trustee. 
 SECTION 7.4 Disclaimer. The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or
adequacy of this Indenture, the Notes or the Guarantees, it shall not be accountable for the Issuer’s use of the Notes or the proceeds from the Notes, and it shall not be responsible for any statement of the Issuer in this Indenture or in any
document issued in connection with the sale of the Notes or in the Notes other than the Trustee’s certificate of authentication or for the use or application of any funds received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee. 

SECTION 7.5 Notice of Defaults. If a Default occurs and is continuing and a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has received written
notice thereof, the Trustee shall deliver to each Holder notice of the Default within 90 days after it is known to the Trustee. Except in the case of a Default in the payment of principal of, or premium (if any) or interest on, any Note, the Trustee
may withhold notice if and to the extent the Trustee in good faith determines that withholding notice is in the interests of the Holders of the Notes. 

SECTION 7.6 Compensation and Indemnity. The Issuer shall pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation for their services as
the parties shall agree in writing from time to time. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuer shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including, but not limited to, costs of collection, costs of preparing and reviewing reports, certificates and other documents,
costs of preparation and mailing of notices to Holders and reasonable costs of counsel, in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the
Trustee’s agents, counsel, accountants and experts. The Issuer shall indemnify the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder (including Paying Agent and Note Registrar), and each of their officers, directors,
employees, counsel and agents, against any and all loss, liability or expense (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by it in connection with the administration of this trust and the performance of
their duties hereunder and under the Notes and the Guarantees, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture (including this Section 7.6), the Notes and the Guarantees and of defending itself against any claims (whether asserted
by any Holder, the Issuer or otherwise). The Trustee shall notify the Issuer promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity, provided that failure by the Trustee to so notify the Issuer shall not relieve the Issuer of its obligations
hereunder. The Issuer shall defend such claim and the Trustee may have separate counsel and the Issuer shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. The Issuer need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or
expense incurred by the Trustee as a result of its own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith. 

  
 113 

 To secure the Issuer’s payment obligations in this Section 7.6, the Trustee shall have
a lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee other than money or property held in trust to pay principal of and interest on particular Notes. The right of the Trustee to receive payment of any amounts due under
this Section 7.6 shall not be subordinate to any other liability or indebtedness of the Issuer. 
 The Issuer’s obligations
pursuant to this Section 7.6 and any lien arising hereunder shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of the Trustee. When the Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default
specified in Section 6.1(v) or (vi) with respect to the Issuer, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law. 

Pursuant to Section 10.1, the obligations of the Issuer hereunder are jointly and severally guaranteed by the Guarantors. 

SECTION 7.7 Replacement of Trustee. The Trustee may resign at any time upon at least 30 days’ notice by so notifying the Issuer in
writing. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Issuer and the Trustee in writing and may appoint a successor Trustee. The Issuer shall remove the Trustee if: 

(i)    the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.9; 

(ii)    the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent; 

(iii)    a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or 

(iv)    the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting. 

If the Trustee resigns or is removed by the Issuer or by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes and such Holders do not
reasonably promptly appoint a successor Trustee, or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason (the Trustee in such event being referred to herein as the “retiring Trustee”), the Issuer shall promptly appoint a
successor Trustee. 
 A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuer.
Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall send a notice of its
succession to Holders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the lien provided for in Section 7.6. All costs reasonably incurred in connection with any such
resignation or removal hereunder shall be borne by the Issuer. 
 If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the
retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee at the expense of the Issuer or the Holders of at least 10.0% in principal amount of the Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

  
 114 

 If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.9, unless the Trustee’s duty to resign is
stayed, any Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee. 

Notwithstanding the replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.7, the Issuer’s obligations under Section 7.6 shall
continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee. 
 SECTION 7.8 Successor Trustee by Merger. If the Trustee consolidates with,
merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation without any further act shall be the successor
Trustee. 
 In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation to the Trustee shall succeed to the
trusts created by this Indenture, any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver such Notes so authenticated;
and in case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Trustee; and in all such
cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Notes or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have. 

SECTION 7.9 Eligibility; Disqualification. The Trustee shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50 million as set
forth in its most recent filed annual report of condition. 
 SECTION 7.10 Limitation on Duty of Trustee. The Trustee shall not have
any duty to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms of this Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees by the Issuer, the Guarantors or any other Person. 

SECTION 7.11 [Reserved]. 

SECTION 7.12 [Reserved].

this Indenture) when: 
 (a)    either (i) all the Notes theretofore authenticated and

are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the
Issuer, and the Issuer or any Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee money or U.S. Government Obligations in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Notes not theretofore
delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes to the date of deposit (in the case of Notes that have become due and payable), redemption or their Stated Maturity, as the case may be; 

(b)    the Issuer and/or the Guarantors have paid all other sums then due and payable under this Indenture;
and 
 (c)    the Issuer has delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of
Counsel stating that all conditions precedent under this Indenture relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with; provided that any such counsel may rely on any Officer’s Certificate as to matters
of fact (including as to compliance with the foregoing clauses (a) and (b)). 
 The Notes of any applicable series will be discharged
and will cease to be of further effect (except as to surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of Notes of such series and certain rights of the Trustee and the Issuer’s obligations with respect thereto, as expressly provided for
in this Indenture) when: 
 (a)    either (i) all the Notes of such series theretofore
authenticated and delivered (other than Notes pursuant to Section 2.9 which have been replaced or paid and Notes of such series for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Issuer and
thereafter repaid to the Issuer or discharged from such trust) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation or (ii) all of the Notes of such series not previously delivered to the Trustee for cancellation (a) have
become due and payable, (b) will become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year or (c) have been called for redemption or are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the
Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Issuer, and the Issuer or any Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee money or U.S. Government Obligations
in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Notes of such series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes of such series to the date of
deposit (in the case of Notes that have become due and payable), redemption or their Stated Maturity, as the case may be; and 

(b)    the Issuer has delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel
stating that all conditions precedent under this Indenture relating to the satisfaction and discharge of the applicable series of Notes have been complied with; provided that any such counsel may rely on any Officer’s Certificate as to
matters of fact (including as to compliance with the foregoing clause (a)). 

  
 116 

 Subject to Sections 8.1(c) and 8.2, the Issuer at any time may terminate (i) all of
the Issuer’s obligations under the Notes and this Indenture and have each Guarantor’s obligation discharged with respect to its Guarantee and cure any then-existing Events of Default (“legal defeasance option”) or
(ii) its obligations under Article III (other than Section 3.1) and the operation of Section 4.1 (other than Sections 4.1(a)(i) and 4.1(a)(ii)) and Sections 6.1(iii) (with respect to any Default under Article III (other than
Section 3.1)), 6.1(iv), 6.1(v) (with respect to Significant Subsidiaries of the Issuer only), 6.1(vi) (with respect to Significant Subsidiaries of the Issuer only), 6.1(vii) and 6.1(viii) (“covenant defeasance option”). The
Issuer may exercise its legal defeasance option notwithstanding its prior exercise of its covenant defeasance option. In the event that the Issuer terminates all of its obligations under the Notes and this Indenture (with respect to such Notes) by
exercising its legal defeasance option or its covenant defeasance option, the obligations of each Guarantor under its Guarantee of such Notes shall be terminated simultaneously with the termination of such obligations. 

If the Issuer exercises its legal defeasance option, payment of the Notes so defeased may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default
with respect thereto. If the Issuer exercises its covenant defeasance option, payment of the Notes so defeased may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(iii) (with respect to any Default by the Issuer or any of
its Restricted Subsidiaries with any of its obligations under Article III other than Section 3.1), 6.1(iv), 6.1(v) (with respect to Significant Subsidiaries of the Issuer only), 6.1(vi) (with respect to Significant Subsidiaries of the Issuer
only), 6.1(vii) or 6.1(viii). 
 Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein and upon request of the Issuer, the Trustee shall
acknowledge in writing the discharge of those obligations that the Issuer terminates. 

(c)    Notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, the Issuer’s obligations in Sections 2.8, 2.9,
2.15, 2.16, 2.18, 2.19, 7.6, 7.7 and in this Article VIII shall survive until the Notes have been paid in full. Thereafter, the Issuer’s obligations in Sections 7.6, 8.5 and 8.6 shall survive such satisfaction and discharge. 

SECTION 8.2 Conditions to Defeasance. 

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

(i)    the Issuer irrevocably deposits in trust with the Trustee money or U.S. Government Obligations
(sufficient in the opinion of a nationally recognized certified public accounting firm) for the payment of principal, premium (if any) and interest on the applicable issue of Notes to redemption or maturity, as the case may be (provided that
if such redemption is pursuant to Section 6(b) of the applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture, (x) the amount of money or U.S. Government Obligations that the Issuer must irrevocably deposit or cause to be deposited shall be determined
using an assumed Applicable Premium for the applicable series of Notes calculated as of the date of such deposit, as calculated by the Issuer in good faith, and (y) the Issuer must irrevocably deposit or cause to be deposited additional
money in trust on the Redemption Date, as required by Section 5.5, as necessary to pay the Applicable Premium for the Notes as determined as of the date of the applicable redemption notice); 

  
 117 

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

(iii)    91 days pass after the deposit is made and during the
91-day period no Default specified in Section 6.1(v) or Section 6.1(vi) with respect to the Issuer occurs which is continuing at the end of the period; 

(iv)    the deposit does not constitute a default under any other agreement binding on the Issuer; 

(v)    the Issuer delivers to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the trust resulting from
the deposit does not constitute, or is qualified as, a regulated investment advisor under the Investment Company Act of 1940; 

(vi)    in the case of the legal defeasance option, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an
Opinion of Counsel stating that (1) the Issuer has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (2) since the date of this Indenture there has been a change in the applicable U.S.
federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the beneficial owners of the Notes shall not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of
such deposit and defeasance and shall be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had not occurred; 

(vii)    in the case of the covenant defeasance option, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an
Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the beneficial owners of the Notes shall not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and defeasance and shall be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the
same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had not occurred; and 

(viii)    the Issuer delivers to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each
stating that all conditions precedent to the defeasance and discharge of the Notes to be so defeased and discharged as contemplated by this Article VIII have been complied with. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Opinion of Counsel required by Sections 8.2(a)(vi) and (vii) need not be delivered if all Notes not
theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation (x) have become due and payable, (y) will become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within the same calendar year or (z) have been called for redemption
within the same calendar year. 

  
 118 

 Before or after a deposit, the Issuer may make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the
redemption of such Notes at a future date in accordance with Article V. 
 SECTION 8.3 Application of Trust Money. The Trustee shall
hold in trust money or U.S. Government Obligations deposited with it pursuant to this Article VIII. It shall apply the deposited money and the money from U.S. Government Obligations through the Paying Agent and in accordance with this Indenture to
the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes. 
 SECTION 8.4 Repayment to the Issuer. Anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Issuer from time to time upon Company Order any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in this Article VIII which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of
independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect legal defeasance or covenant defeasance, as applicable;
provided that the Trustee shall not be required to liquidate any U.S. Government Obligations in order to comply with the provisions of this Section 8.4. 

Subject to any applicable abandoned property law, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Issuer any money held by them for the
payment of principal of or interest on the Notes that remains unclaimed for two years, and, thereafter, Holders entitled to the money must look to the Issuer for payment as general creditors. 

SECTION 8.5 Indemnity for U.S. Government Obligations. The Issuer shall pay and shall indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or
other charge imposed on or assessed against deposited U.S. Government Obligations or the principal and interest received on such U.S. Government Obligations. 

SECTION 8.6 Reinstatement. If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance
with this Article VIII by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the obligations of the Issuer and each Guarantor
under this Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article VIII until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or U.S. Government
Obligations in accordance with this Article VIII; provided, however, that, if any of the Issuer or the Guarantors has made any payment of interest on or principal of any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer
or any Guarantor, as the case may be, shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent. 

  
 119 

 ARTICLE IX 

Amendments 
 SECTION 9.1
Without Consent of Holders. Notwithstanding Section 9.2 hereof, this Indenture, the Notes and Guarantees may be amended or supplemented by the Issuer, any Guarantor (with respect to its Guarantee of the Notes) and the Trustee without
notice to or consent of any Holder: 
 (i)    to cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or
inconsistency; 
 (ii)    to conform the text of this Indenture (including any supplemental indenture or
other instrument pursuant to which Notes are issued), the Guarantees or the Notes (including any Additional Notes) to the “Description of Notes” in the Offering Memorandum or, with respect to any Additional Notes and any supplemental
indenture or other instrument pursuant to which such Additional Notes are issued, to the “Description of Notes” relating to the issuance of such Additional Notes solely to the extent that such “Description of Notes” provides for
terms of such Additional Notes that differ from the terms of the Initial Notes, in accordance with Section 2.4; 

(iii)    to comply with Article IV; 

(iv)    to provide for the assumption by a successor Person of the obligations of the Issuer or any
Guarantor under this Indenture and the Notes or Guarantee, as the case may be;

uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes; 
 (vi)    to add Guarantees with
respect to the Notes;

under the TIA; 
 (xii)    to make any amendment to the provisions of this Indenture relating to the
transfer and legending of Notes as permitted by this Indenture, including, without limitation, to facilitate the issuance and administration of the Notes; provided, however, that (i) compliance with this Indenture as so
amended would not result in Notes being transferred in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable securities law and (ii) such amendment does not materially and adversely affect the rights of Holders to transfer Notes; 

  
 120 

 (xiii)    to evidence and provide for the acceptance of
appointment by a successor Trustee, provided that the successor Trustee is otherwise qualified and eligible to act as such under the terms of this Indenture; or 

(xiv)    to provide for or confirm the issuance of Initial Notes or Additional Notes. 

SECTION 9.2 With Consent of Holders. 

(a)    This Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees may be amended or supplemented by the Issuer, any Guarantor (with
respect to its Guarantee of the Notes) and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase
of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes) and any existing or past Default or compliance with any provisions of such documents may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, in
each case, other than Notes beneficially owned by the Issuer or its Affiliates (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes); provided that (x) if
any such amendment or waiver will only affect one series of Notes (or less than all series of Notes) then outstanding under this Indenture, then only the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes of such series then
outstanding (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes) shall be required, and (y) if any such amendment or waiver by its terms will affect a series of
Notes in a manner different and materially adverse relative to the manner such amendment or waiver affects other series of Notes, then the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes of such series then outstanding
(including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes) shall be required. 

(b)    Notwithstanding the provisions in Section 9.2(a), without the consent of each Holder of an outstanding Note of any
series affected (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Notes held by Affiliates), no amendment, supplement or waiver pursuant to this Indenture may: 

(i)    reduce the percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an
amendment, supplement or waiver; 
 (ii)    reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest
on any Note; 
 (iii)    reduce the principal of or change the Stated Maturity of any Note; 

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

  
 121 

 (v)    reduce the premium payable upon the redemption of any
Note or change the time at which any Note may be redeemed pursuant to Section 6 of the applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture; 

(vi)    make any Note payable in money other than that stated in such Note; 

(vii)    modify the legal right of any Holder of any Note to receive payment of principal of and interest
on such Note on or after the respective Stated Maturity for such principal or interest payment dates for such interest expressed in such Note, or to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective Stated Maturity
or interest payment dates; or 
 (viii)    make any change in the amendment or waiver provisions of this
Indenture that require each Holder’s consent, as described in clauses (i) through (vii) above. 
 (c)    It
shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 9.2 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. 

(d)    After an amendment under this Section 9.2 becomes effective, the Issuer shall send to the Holders of Notes
affected thereby a notice briefly describing such amendment. The failure of the Issuer to send such notice, or any defect therein, shall not in any way impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section 9.2. 

SECTION 9.3 Effect of Consents and Waivers. A consent to an amendment or a waiver by a Holder of a Note shall bind the Holder and every
subsequent Holder of that Note or portion of the Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent or waiver is not made on the Note. After an amendment or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind
every Holder unless it makes a change described in clauses (i) through (viii) of Section 9.2(b), in which case the amendment or waiver or other action shall bind each Holder who has consented to it and every subsequent Holder that evidences the
same debt as the consenting Holder’s Notes. An amendment or waiver made pursuant to Section 9.2 shall become effective upon receipt by the Trustee of the requisite number of written consents. 

The Issuer may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to give their consent or
take any other action described above or required or permitted to be taken pursuant to this Indenture. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the immediately preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such record date (or their
duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to give such consent or to take any such action, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date. 

SECTION 9.4 Notation on or Exchange of Notes. If an amendment changes the terms of a Note, the Trustee may require the Holder of such
Note to deliver it to the Trustee. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation on the Note regarding the changed terms and return it to the Holder. Alternatively, if the Issuer or the Trustee so determines, the Issuer in exchange for the

  
 122 

 
Note shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Note that reflects the changed terms. Failure to make the appropriate notation or to issue a new Note shall not affect the validity of
such amendment. 
 SECTION 9.5 Trustee to Sign Amendments. The Trustee shall sign any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized
pursuant to this Article IX if the amendment, supplement or waiver does not, in the sole determination of the Trustee, adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. If it does, the Trustee may but need not sign it.
In signing any amendment, supplement or waiver pursuant to this Article IX, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Sections 7.1 and 7.2) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of
Counsel stating that such amendment, supplement or waiver is authorized or permitted by or complies with this Indenture, that all conditions precedent to such amendment required by this Indenture have been complied with and that such amendment,
supplement or waiver is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuer, enforceable against the Issuer in accordance with its terms, subject to customary exceptions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Opinion of Counsel will be required for
the Trustee to execute any amendment or supplement adding a new Guarantor under this Indenture. For the avoidance of doubt, no Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel shall be required for the execution on the Issue Date of any
(x) Notes Supplemental Indenture pursuant to this Section 9.5, (y) supplemental indenture pursuant to Section 4.1(a)(ii) or (z) Guarantor Supplemental Indenture. 

ARTICLE X 
 Guarantees 

SECTION 10.1 Guarantees. 

(a)    Subject to the provisions of this Article X, each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally, irrevocably, fully and
unconditionally guarantees, as guarantor and not as a surety, with each other Guarantor, to each Holder of the Notes, to the extent lawful, and the Trustee the full and punctual payment when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption
or otherwise, of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes and all other Obligations of the Issuer under this Indenture and the Notes (including, without limitation, interest accruing after the filing of any petition in
bankruptcy, or the commencement of any insolvency, reorganization or like proceeding, relating to the Issuer, or any Guarantor whether or not a claim for post-filing or post-petition interest is allowed in such proceeding and the obligations under
Section 7.6) (all the foregoing being hereinafter collectively called the “Guarantor Obligations”). Each Guarantor agrees (to the extent lawful) that the Guarantor Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part,
without notice or further assent from it, and that it shall remain bound under this Article X notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Guarantor Obligation. 

(b)    Each Guarantor waives (to the extent lawful) presentation to, demand of, payment from and protest to the Issuer of
any of the Guarantor Obligations and also waives (to the extent lawful) notice of protest for nonpayment. Each Guarantor waives (to the extent lawful) notice of any default under the Notes or the Guarantor Obligations. 

  
 123 

 (c)    Each Guarantor further agrees that its Guarantee herein constitutes a
Guarantee of payment when due (and not a Guarantee of collection) and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder to any security held for payment of the Guarantor Obligations. 

(d)    Except as set forth in Section 10.2 and Article VIII, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be
subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than payment of the Guarantor Obligations in full), including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not (to the extent
lawful) be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Guarantor Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor herein shall not (to the extent lawful) be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by (a) the failure of any Holder to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against
the Issuer or any other person under this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement or otherwise; (b) any extension or renewal of any thereof; (c) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or
provisions of this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement; (d) the release of any security held by any Holder for the Guarantor Obligations or any of them; (e) the failure of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy
against any other Guarantor; (f) any change in the ownership of the Issuer; (g) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Guarantor Obligations; or (h) any other act or thing
or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of such Guarantor as a matter of law or equity. 

(e)    Each Guarantor agrees that its Guarantee herein shall remain in full force and effect until payment in full of all
the Guarantor Obligations or such Guarantor is released from its Guarantee in compliance with Section 4.1, Section 10.2 and Article VIII, as applicable. Each Guarantor further agrees that its Guarantee herein shall continue to be effective
or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any of the Guarantor Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder upon the bankruptcy or
reorganization of the Issuer or otherwise. 
 (f)    In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other
right which any Holder has at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Issuer to pay any of the Guarantor Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption
or otherwise, each Guarantor hereby promises to and shall, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustee, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Trustee or the Trustee on behalf of the Holders an amount equal to the sum of
(i) the unpaid amount of such Guarantor Obligations then due and owing and (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on such Guarantor Obligations then due and owing (but only to the extent not prohibited by law) (including interest
accruing after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy or the commencement of any insolvency, reorganization or like proceeding relating to the Issuer or any Guarantor whether or not a claim for post-filing or post-petition interest is allowed in
such proceeding). 
 (g)    Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between such Guarantor, on the one hand, and the
Holders, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the Guarantor Obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in this Indenture for the purposes of its 

  
 124 

 
Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Guarantor Obligations guaranteed hereby and (y) in the event
of any such declaration of acceleration of such Guarantor Obligations, such Guarantor Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantor for the purposes of this Guarantee. 

(h)    Each Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’
fees) incurred by the Trustee or the Holders in enforcing any rights under this Section 10.1. 
 (i)    Neither the
Issuer nor the Guarantors shall be required to make a notation on the Notes to reflect any Guarantee or any release, termination or discharge thereof and any such notation shall not be a condition to the validity of any Guarantee. 

SECTION 10.2 Limitation on Liability; Termination, Release and Discharge. 

(a)    Any term or provision of this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder
shall be limited to the maximum amount as shall, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect
of the obligations of such other Guarantor under its Guarantee or pursuant to its contribution obligations under this Indenture, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent
transfer under federal or state law and not otherwise being void or voidable under any similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally. 

(b)    A Guarantee by a Guarantor shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged, and each Guarantor
and its obligations under the Guarantee and this Indenture shall be released and discharged upon: 

(1)    the sale, exchange, disposition or other transfer (including through merger, consolidation or
dissolution) of (x) Capital Stock of such Guarantor, after which the applicable Guarantor is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary, or (y) all or substantially all the assets of such Guarantor, in any case, if such sale,
exchange, disposition or other transfer (including through merger, consolidation or dissolution) is not prohibited by this Indenture; 

(2)    the Issuer designating such Guarantor to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the
provisions set forth in Section 3.4, Section 3.14 and the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary”; 

(3)    in the case of any Restricted Subsidiary that after the Issue Date is required to guarantee the
Notes pursuant to Section 3.10, the release or discharge of the Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness of the Issuer (or, if such release or discharge occurs substantially concurrently with the release of the Guarantee of such
Restricted Subsidiary or will occur as a result of the release of the Guarantee of such Restricted Subsidiary) or the repayment of the Indebtedness, in each case, that resulted in the obligation to guarantee the Notes, except if such release or
discharge is by or as a 

  
 125 

 
result of payment in connection with the enforcement of remedies under such other guarantee (it being understood that a release or discharge subject to contingent reinstatement is still a release
or discharge, and that if any such other guarantee is so reinstated, such Guarantee shall also be reinstated to the extent that such Restricted Subsidiary would then be required to provide a guarantee pursuant to Section 3.10); 

(4)    the Issuer’s exercise of its legal defeasance option or covenant defeasance option as described
under Article VIII or if the Issuer’s obligations under this Indenture are discharged in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; 

(5)    the release or discharge of direct obligations of such Guarantor, or the guarantee by such Guarantor
of the obligations, under the Existing Credit Agreement (or, if such release or discharge occurs substantially concurrently with the release of the Guarantee of such Guarantor or will occur as a result of the release of the Guarantee of such
Guarantor), except a discharge or release by or as a result of payment in connection with the enforcement of remedies under such guarantee (it being understood that a release or discharge subject to contingent reinstatement is still a release or
discharge, and that if any such other direct obligation or guarantee is so reinstated, such Guarantee shall also be reinstated to the extent that such Guarantor would then be required to provide a guarantee pursuant to Section 3.10); or 

(6)    the Notes having an Investment Grade Rating from both Rating Agencies; provided that each
such Guarantee shall be reinstated upon the Reversion Date with respect to each Restricted Subsidiary that would then be required to provide a guarantee pursuant to Section 3.10. 

(c)    The Issuer will have the right, upon 10 days’ written notice to the Trustee (or, such shorter period as may be
agreed to by the Trustee), to cause any Guarantor that has not guaranteed any Indebtedness under the Senior Credit Agreement or any Certain Capital Markets Debt to be unconditionally released and discharged from all obligations under its Guarantee,
and such Guarantee shall thereupon automatically and unconditionally terminate and be discharged and of no further force or effect. 

(d)    If any Guarantor is released from its Guarantee, any of its Subsidiaries that are Guarantors shall be released from
their Guarantees, if any. 
 (e)    If the Issuer requests, at its option, confirmation from the Trustee of a release
pursuant to Section 10.2(b), the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture relating to such transaction have been complied
with. 
 SECTION 10.3 Right of Contribution. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that any such Guarantor shall have paid
more than its proportionate share of any payment made on the obligations under its Guarantee, such Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against the Issuer or any other Guarantor who has not paid its proportionate
share of such payment. The provisions of this Section 10.3 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of each Guarantor to the Trustee and the Holders, and each Guarantor shall remain liable to the Trustee and the Holders for the
full amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder. 

  
 126 

 SECTION 10.4 No Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by each
Guarantor hereunder, no Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Trustee or any Holder against the Issuer or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Trustee or any
Holder for the payment of the Guarantor Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Issuer or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Guarantor hereunder, until all
amounts owing to the Trustee and the Holders by the Issuer on account of the Guarantor Obligations are paid in full. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Guarantor Obligations
shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by such Guarantor in trust for the Trustee and the Holders, segregated from other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to the Trustee
in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Guarantor to the Trustee, if required), to be applied against the Guarantor Obligations.

In connection with our proposed sale of $             aggregate principal

not to resell, pledge or otherwise transfer the Notes except in compliance with, such restrictions and conditions and the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). 

2.    We understand that the Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act or any other applicable securities
law, and that the Notes may not be offered, sold or otherwise transferred except as permitted in the following sentence. We agree, on our own behalf and on behalf of any accounts for which we are acting as hereinafter stated, that if we should
offer, sell, transfer, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of any Notes within one year after the original issuance of the Notes, we will do so only (A) to the Issuer or a Subsidiary, (B) inside the United States to a
“qualified institutional buyer” in compliance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act, (C) inside the United States to an institutional “accredited investor” (as defined below) that, prior to such transfer, furnishes
to you a signed letter substantially in the form of this letter, (D) outside the United States to a foreign person in compliance with Rule 904 of Regulation S under the Securities Act, (E) pursuant to the exemption from
registration provided by Rule 144 under the Securities Act (if available), or (F) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, and we further agree to provide to any person purchasing any of the Notes from us
a notice advising such purchaser that resales of the Notes are restricted as stated herein and in the Indenture.

4. We are an institutional “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act)
and have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of our investment in the Notes, and we and any accounts for which we are acting are acquiring the Notes for investment
purposes and not with a view to, or offer or sale in connection with, any distribution in violation of the Securities Act, and we are each able to bear the economic risk of our or its investment. 

5.    We are acquiring the Notes purchased by us for our own account or for one or more accounts (each of which is an
institutional “accredited investor”) as to each of which we exercise sole investment discretion.

 FIRST SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE, dated as of April 25, 2017 (this “Supplemental
Indenture”), among Booz Allen Hamilton Inc. (the “Issuer”), the Subsidiary Guarantors under the Indenture referred to below (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”), and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as
Trustee under the Indenture referred to below. 
 W I T N E S S E T H: 

WHEREAS, the Issuer, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee, are party to an Indenture, dated as of April 25, 2017 (as amended,
supplemented, waived or otherwise modified, the “Indenture”), relating to the issuance from time to time by the Issuer of Notes; 

WHEREAS, Section 9.1(xiv) of the Indenture provides that the Issuer may provide for the issuance of Notes of any series as permitted by
Section 2.4 therein; 
 WHEREAS, in connection with the issuance of the 2025 Notes (as defined herein), the Issuer has duly authorized
the execution and delivery of this Supplemental Indenture to establish the forms and terms of the 2025 Notes as hereinafter described; and 

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.1 of the Indenture, the parties hereto are authorized to execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture
to amend the Indenture, without the consent of any Holder; 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the Issuer, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee mutually covenant and agree for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes as follows: 

1. Defined Terms. As used in this Supplemental Indenture, terms defined in the Indenture or in the preamble or recital hereto are used
herein as so defined. The words “herein,” “hereof” and “hereby” and other words of similar import used in this Supplemental Indenture refer to this Supplemental Indenture as a whole and not to any particular section
hereof. 
 2. Title of Notes. There shall be a series of Notes of the Issuer designated the “5.125% Senior Notes due 2025 (the
“2025 Notes”). 
 3. Maturity Date. The final Stated Maturity of the 2025 Notes shall be May 1, 2025. 

4. Interest and Interest Rates. Interest on the Outstanding principal amount of 2025 Notes will accrue at the rate of 5.125% per annum
and will be payable semi-annually in arrears on May 1 and November 1 in each year, commencing on November 1, 2017, to holders of record on the immediately preceding April 15 and October 15, respectively (each such
April 15 and October 15, a “Regular Record Date”). Interest on the 2025 Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or provided for or, if no interest has been paid, from April 25,
2017, except that interest on any Additional 2025 Notes (as defined below) issued on or after the first Interest Payment Date will accrue (or will be deemed to have accrued) from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or duly provided
for or, if no interest has been paid on such Additional 2025 Notes, from the Interest Payment Date immediately preceding the 

  
 1 

 
date of issuance of such Additional 2025 Notes (or if the date of issuance of such Additional 2025 Notes is an Interest Payment Date, from such date of issuance); provided that if any 2025
Note is surrendered for exchange on or after a record date for an Interest Payment Date that will occur on or after the date of such exchange, interest on such Note received in exchange thereof will accrue from such Interest Payment Date. 

5. No Limitation on Aggregate Principal Amount. The aggregate principal amount of 2025 Notes that may be authenticated and delivered
and Outstanding under the Indenture is not limited. The aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Notes shall initially be $350.0 million. Subject to the terms of the Indenture, the Issuer may from time to time, without the consent of the Holders,
create and issue Additional Notes having the same terms and conditions as the 2025 Notes in all respects or in all respects except for issue date, issue price and, if applicable, the first date on which interest accrues and the first payment of
interest thereon. Additional Notes issued in this manner will be consolidated with, and will form a single series with, the 2025 Notes (any such Additional Notes, “Additional 2025 Notes”), unless otherwise specified for Additional
Notes in an applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture, or otherwise designated by the Issuer, as contemplated by Section 2.4 of the Indenture. 

6. Redemption. 
 (a) On
and after May 1, 2020, the Issuer may redeem the 2025 Notes, at its option, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, upon notice as described in Section 5.4 of the Indenture, at the following redemption prices (expressed as a
percentage of principal amount), plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to (but not including) the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest
Payment Date falling prior to or on the Redemption Date), if redeemed during the 12-month period commencing on May 1 of the years set forth below: 

 

					
	 Redemption Period
	  	Price	 
	 2020
	  	 	102.563	% 
	 2021
	  	 	101.281	% 
	 2022 and thereafter
	  	 	100.000	% 

 (b) In addition, at any time prior to May 1, 2020, the Issuer may redeem the 2025 Notes at its option, in
whole at any time or in part from time to time, upon notice as described in Section 5.4 of the Indenture, at a redemption price equal to 100.0% of the principal amount of the 2025 Notes redeemed plus the Applicable Premium calculated by the
Issuer as of the date of the redemption notice, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to (but not including) the applicable Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due on
the relevant interest payment date falling prior to or on the Redemption Date). 

  
 2 

 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time and from time to time, upon notice as described in
Section 5.4 of the Indenture, on or prior to May 1, 2020, the Issuer may redeem in the aggregate up to 40.0% of the original aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Notes (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of any Additional
2025 Notes, or any other Additional Notes of the same series as the 2025 Notes) with an amount equal to the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings by the Issuer or any direct or indirect parent of the Issuer, to the extent net cash
proceeds thereof are contributed to the common equity capital of the Issuer or used to purchase Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Issuer from it, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of the principal amount thereof)
equal to 105.125%, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to (but not including) the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date falling
prior to or on the Redemption Date); provided, however, that at least 50.0% of the original aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Notes (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of any Additional 2025 Notes, or any other
Additional Notes of the same series as the 2025 Notes) must remain outstanding after each such redemption; and provided, further, that such redemption shall occur within 180 days after the date on which any such Equity Offering is
consummated. 
 “Applicable Premium” means, with respect to any 2025 Note on any applicable Redemption Date, as calculated
by the Issuer or on behalf of the Issuer by such Person as the Issuer shall designate (and the Trustee shall have no duty to calculate or verify the calculations of the same), the greater of: 

 

	 	(1)	1.0% of the then outstanding principal amount of the 2025 Note; and 

  

	 	(2)	the excess, if any, of 

 (a) the present value at such Redemption Date
calculated as of the date of the applicable redemption notice of (i) the redemption price of the Note at May 1, 2020 (such redemption price being that described in clause (a) of this Section 6) plus (ii) all
required remaining scheduled interest payments due on the 2025 Note through May 1, 2020 (excluding accrued but unpaid interest to (but not including) the redemption date), computed using a discount rate equal to the Treasury Rate plus 50 basis
points; over 
 (b) the then outstanding principal amount of the 2025 Note. 

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to a Redemption Date, the weekly average yield to maturity at the time of computation of
United States Treasury securities with a constant maturity (as compiled and published in the most recent Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (519) that has become publicly available at least two Business Days prior to the date of the applicable
redemption notice (or, if such Statistical Release is no longer published, any publicly available source of similar market data)) most nearly equal to the period from such Redemption Date to May 1, 2020, provided, however, that if
the period from such Redemption Date to May 1, 2020 is not equal to the constant maturity of a United States Treasury security for which a weekly average yield is given, the Treasury Rate shall be obtained by linear interpolation (calculated to
the nearest one-twelfth of a year) from the weekly average yields of United States Treasury securities for which such yields are given, except that if the period from May 1, 2020 to such Redemption Date
is less than one year, the weekly average yield on actually traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to a constant maturity of one year shall be used.

YORK.
