TRUST AGREEMENT

 

THIS AMENDMENT NO.
2 TO THE INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT TRUST AGREEMENT (this “Amendment”) is made as of January 24, 2020, by
and between Gordon Pointe Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Continental
Stock Transfer & Trust Company, a New York corporation (the “Trustee”). Capitalized terms contained
in this Amendment, but not specifically defined in this Amendment, shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Original
Agreement (as defined below).

 

WHEREAS, on January
30, 2018, the Company consummated an initial public offering (the “Offering”) of units of the Company’s
equity securities, each such unit comprised of one share of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share
(“Common Stock”), and one warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock;

 

WHEREAS, the Company
entered into an Underwriting Agreement with B. Riley FBR, Inc., as representative (the “Representative”)
of the several underwriters (the “Underwriters”) named therein (the “Underwriting Agreement”);

 

WHEREAS, $126,250,000
of the gross proceeds of the Offering and sale of the Placement Warrants (as defined in the Underwriting Agreement) were delivered
to the Trustee to be deposited and held in a segregated trust account located in the United States (the “Trust Account”)
for the benefit of the Company and the holders of the Company’s Common Stock included in the Units issued in the Offering
pursuant to the investment management trust agreement made effective as of January 24, 2018, by and between the Company and the
Trustee (as amended, the “Original Agreement”) (the amount delivered to the Trustee (and any interest
subsequently earned thereon), including the proceeds from any loans made by the Company’s sponsor or its affiliates in connection
with the Extension Amendment (as hereinafter defined) is referred to herein as the “Property”);

 

WHEREAS, the Company
has sought the approval of its stockholders at a meeting of its stockholders to: (i) extend the date before which the Company must
complete a business combination from January 29, 2020 to February 29, 2020 plus an option for the Company to further extend such
date for an additional 30 days (the “Extension Amendment”) and (ii) extend the date on which the Trustee
must liquidate the Trust Account if the Company has not completed a business combination from January 29, 2020 to February 29,
2020 plus an option for the Company to further extend such date for an additional 30 days (the “Trust Amendment”);

 

WHEREAS, holders of
at least sixty-five percent (65%) of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock approved the Extension Amendment and
the Trust Amendment; and

 

WHEREAS, the parties
desire to amend and restate the Original Agreement to, among other things, reflect amendments to the Original Agreement contemplated
by the Trust Amendment.

NOW, THEREFORE, in
consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency
of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 

		1.	Amendment of Trust Agreement. Section 1(i) of the Original Agreement is hereby amended
and restated in its entirety as follows:

 

(i) Commence
liquidation of the Trust Account only after and promptly after (x) receipt of, and only in accordance with, the terms of a letter
from the Company (“Termination Letter”) in a form substantially similar to that attached hereto as either
Exhibit A or Exhibit B signed on behalf of the Company by its Chief Executive Officer, President, Chief Financial
Officer, Secretary or Chairman of the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) or other authorized
officer of the Company, and complete the liquidation of the Trust Account and distribute the Property in the Trust Account, including
interest not previously released to the Company to pay its franchise and income taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest that may
be released to the Company to pay dissolution expenses), only as directed in the Termination Letter and the other documents referred
to therein, or (y) February 29, 2020, provided that the Company may further extend such date for an additional 30 days, if a Termination
Letter has not been received by the Trustee prior to such date, in which case the Trust Account shall be liquidated in accordance
with the procedures set forth in the Termination Letter attached as Exhibit B and the Property in the Trust Account, including
interest not previously released to the Company to pay its franchise and income taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest that may
be released to the Company to pay dissolution expenses) shall be distributed to the Public Stockholders of record as of such date;
provided, however, that in the event the Trustee receives a Termination Letter in a form substantially similar to
Exhibit B hereto, or if the Trustee begins to liquidate the Property because it has received no such Termination Letter
by February 29, 2020, provided that the Company may further extend such date for an additional 30 days, the Trustee shall keep
the Trust Account open until twelve (12) months following the date the Property has been distributed to the Public Stockholders;

 

		2.	Miscellaneous Provisions.

 

		(a)	Successors.  All the covenants and provisions of this Amendment by or for
the benefit of the Company or the Trustee shall bind and inure to the benefit of their permitted respective successors and assigns.

 

    2

     

    

 

		(b)	Severability.  This Amendment shall be deemed severable, and the invalidity
or unenforceability of any term or provision hereof shall not affect the validity or enforceability of this Amendment or of any
other term or provision hereof. Furthermore, in lieu of any such invalid or unenforceable term or provision, the parties hereto
intend that there shall be added as a part of this Amendment a provision as similar in terms to such invalid or unenforceable provision
as may be possible and be valid and enforceable.

 

		(c)	Applicable Law.  This Amendment shall be governed by and construed and
enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to conflicts of law principles that would
result in the application of the substantive laws of another jurisdiction.

 

		(d)	Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in several original or facsimile counterparts,
each one of which shall constitute an original, and together shall constitute but one instrument.

 

		(e)	Effect of Headings.  The section headings herein are for convenience only
and are not part of this Amendment and shall not affect the interpretation thereof.

 

		(f)	Entire Agreement.  The Original Agreement, as modified by this Amendment,
constitutes the entire understanding of the parties and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, arrangements, promises
and commitments, whether written or oral, express or implied, relating to the subject matter hereof, and all such prior agreements,
understandings, arrangements, promises and commitments are hereby canceled and terminated.

144A. 
 “Acquired Debt” means, with respect to any specified Person: 

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

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

“Additional Assets” means:

 (3) Capital Stock constituting a minority interest in any Person that
at such time is a Restricted Subsidiary; 
 provided, however, that any such Restricted Subsidiary described in clause (2) or (3)

determination is within 45 days after the end of such most recently completed fiscal year and no reserve report as of the end of such fiscal year has at the time been prepared, the Issuer’s second preceding fiscal year) or, at the Issuer’s
option, the Issuer’s most recently completed fiscal quarter for which internal financial statements are available, as increased by, as of the date of determination, the estimated discounted future net revenues calculated in accordance
with SEC guidelines from: 

  

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

  

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

 and decreased by, as of the date of determination, the estimated discounted future net
revenue attributable to: 
  

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

  

	 	(D)	 reductions in estimated proved oil and natural gas reserves of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries

or other factors which would, in accordance with standard industry practice, cause such revisions; 

  
 2

financial statements are available; 

  

	 	(iii)	 the Consolidated Net Working Capital of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries as of a date no earlier than
the last day of the Issuer’s most recent quarterly or annual period for which internal financial statements are available; and

	 	(b)	 the sum of: 

  

	 	(i)	 minority interests; 

  

	 	(ii)	 any net natural gas balancing liabilities of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries as of the last day of
the Issuer’s most recent annual or quarterly period for which internal financial statements are available to the extent not deducted in calculating Consolidated Net Working Capital of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries in accordance
with clause (a)(iii) of this definition; 

  
 3 

	 	(iii)	 to the extent included in clause (a)(i) above, the discounted future net revenues, calculated in accordance

	 	(iv)	 the discounted future net revenues, calculated in accordance with SEC guidelines, attributable to reserves

(a) the present value at such redemption date of (i) the redemption price of the Note at February 1, 2022 (such
redemption price being set forth in the table appearing in Section 3.07(d)) plus (ii) all required interest payments due on the Note through February 1, 2022 (in each case, excluding accrued but unpaid interest to the redemption
date), computed using a discount rate equal to the Treasury Rate as of such redemption date plus 50 basis points discounted to the redemption date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of

Ratio will be calculated giving pro forma effect to such incurrence, assumption, guarantee, repayment, repurchase, redemption, defeasance or other discharge of Indebtedness, or such issuance, repurchase or redemption of Preferred Stock, and the use

was created after the end of such four fiscal quarters, the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during the period from the date of creation of such revolving Credit Facility to the date of such determination). If any Indebtedness bears a
floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest expense on such Indebtedness will be calculated as if the average rate in effect from the beginning of such period to the Calculation Date had been the applicable rate for
the entire period (taking into account any interest Hedging Obligation applicable to such Indebtedness, but if the remaining term of such interest Hedging Obligation is less than twelve months, then such interest Hedging Obligation shall only be
taken into account for that portion of the period equal to the remaining term thereof). If any Indebtedness that is being given pro forma effect bears an interest rate at the option of such Person, the interest rate shall be calculated by applying
such option rate chosen by such Person. Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, a Eurocurrency interbank offered rate, or other rate, shall be deemed to have been
based upon the rate actually chosen, or if none, then based upon such optional rate chosen as such Person may designate. Interest on any Indebtedness under a revolving Credit Facility will be calculated based upon the average daily balance of such
Indebtedness during the applicable period.

acquired by the specified Person or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, and including all related financing transactions and including increases in ownership of Restricted Subsidiaries, during the four-quarter reference period or subsequent to such
four-quarter reference period and on or prior to the Calculation Date, or that are to be made on the Calculation Date, will be given pro forma effect as if they had occurred on the first day of the four-quarter reference period; 

  
 15 

 (2) the Consolidated Cash Flow attributable to discontinued operations, as
determined in accordance with GAAP, and operations or businesses or Investments (or ownership interests therein) disposed of on or prior to the Calculation Date, will be excluded; 

(3) the Fixed Charges attributable to discontinued operations, as determined in accordance with GAAP, and operations or
businesses or Investments (or ownership interests therein) disposed of on or prior to the Calculation Date, will be excluded, but only to the extent that the obligations giving rise to such Fixed Charges will not be obligations of the specified
Person or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries following the Calculation Date; 
 (4) any Person that is to be a Restricted
Subsidiary of the specified Person immediately following the Calculation Date will be deemed to have been a Restricted Subsidiary at all times during such four-quarter reference period; 

(5) any Person that is not to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the specified Person immediately following the Calculation Date
will be deemed not to have been a Restricted Subsidiary at any time during such four-quarter reference period; 
 (6)
interest income reasonably anticipated by such Person to be received during the applicable four-quarter reference period from cash or Cash Equivalents held by such Person or any Restricted Subsidiary of such Person, which cash or Cash Equivalents
exist on the Calculation Date or will exist as a result of the transaction giving rise to the need to calculate the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, will be included; and 

(7) if, since the beginning of such four-quarter reference period, any Person (that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary
or was merged or consolidated with or into such Person or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries since the beginning of such four-quarter reference period) disposed of any operations or businesses or Investments (or ownership interests therein) or made
any acquisition or Investment or received any contribution that would have required an adjustment pursuant to clause (1), (2) or (3) above if made by such Person or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries during such four-quarter reference period,
Consolidated Cash Flow and Fixed Charges for such period will be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such disposition or acquisition, contribution or Investment had occurred on the first day of such four-quarter reference period.

 For purposes of this definition, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to any calculation under this definition, the pro forma

(i) Exchange Notes in exchange for Initial Notes in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $550,000,000 or (ii) Exchange Notes in exchange for Additional Notes in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed the aggregate principal
amount of such Additional Notes so exchanged; provided that such Exchange Notes shall be issuable only upon the valid acceptance for exchange of Initial Notes issued on the date hereof or Additional Notes, as the case may be, of a like
aggregate principal amount in accordance with an Exchange Offer pursuant to an applicable Registration Rights Agreement. 
 The Trustee
shall also authenticate and deliver Notes at the times and in the manner specified in Sections 2.06, 2.07, 2.10, 3.06, 3.09, 4.15 and 9.04. 

The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Issuer to authenticate Notes. An authenticating agent may authenticate Notes
whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with Holders or an Affiliate of the Issuer. 

Section 2.03 Registrar and Paying Agent. 

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

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

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

Section 2.04 Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. 

The Issuer will require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust for the benefit
of Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on the Notes, and will notify the Trustee of any default by the Issuer in making any such payment. While any such default
continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the 

  
 41 

 
Trustee. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Issuer or a
Subsidiary) will have no further liability for the money. If the Issuer or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it will segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any
bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Issuer, the Trustee will serve as Paying Agent for the Notes. 
 Section 2.05
Holder Lists. 
 The Trustee will preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to
it of the names and addresses of all Holders and shall otherwise comply with TIA §312(a). If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuer will furnish to the Trustee at least seven Business Days before each Interest Payment Date and at such
other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Holders of the Notes and the Issuer shall otherwise comply with TIA §312(a). 

Section 2.06 Transfer and Exchange. 

(a) Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes. A Global Note may not be transferred except as a whole by the
Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary, by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or to another nominee of the Depositary, or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary. All
Global Notes will be exchanged by the Issuer for Definitive Notes if: 
 (1) the Depositary notifies the Issuer that it is
unwilling or unable to continue to act as Depositary or that it is no longer a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and, in either case, a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Issuer within 90 days after the date of such notice
from the Depositary; 
 (2) the Issuer, at its option but subject to the Depositary’s requirements, notifies the Trustee
in writing that it elects to cause the issuance of the Definitive Notes; or 

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

  
 42 

 (b) Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in the Global
Notes. The transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in the Global Notes will be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture and the Applicable Procedures. Participants and Indirect Participants shall
have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by the Depositary or by the Trustee as the Custodian with respect to the Global Notes, and the Issuer, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee
shall be entitled to treat the Depositary as the absolute owner of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Issuer, the Trustee or any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee from
giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary or impair, as between the Depositary and its Participants or the Indirect Participants, the operation of customary practices of such Depositary
governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of a beneficial interest in any Global Note. Subject to the provisions of this Section 2.06 and Section 12.15, the Holder of a Global Note shall be entitled to grant proxies and otherwise
authorize any Person, including Participants and Indirect Participants and Persons that may hold interests through such Persons, to take any action that a Holder is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Notes. Beneficial interests in the
Restricted Global Notes will be subject to restrictions on transfer comparable to those set forth herein to the extent required by the Securities Act. Transfers of beneficial interests in the Global Notes also will require compliance with either
subparagraph (1) or (2) below, as applicable, as well as one or more of the other following subparagraphs, as applicable: 

(1) Transfer of Beneficial Interests in the Same Global Note. Beneficial interests in any Restricted Global Note
may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the same Restricted Global Note in accordance with the transfer restrictions set forth in the Private Placement Legend and any Applicable Procedures.
Beneficial interests in any Unrestricted Global Note may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note. Except as may be required by any Applicable Procedures, no written

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

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

  
 43

containing information regarding the Participant account to be credited with such increase; or

Definitive Note shall be registered to effect the transfer or exchange referred to in (1) above. 
 Upon consummation of an Exchange
Offer by the Issuer in accordance with Section 2.06(f), the requirements of this Section 2.06(b)(2) shall be deemed to have been satisfied upon receipt by the Registrar of the instructions contained in the Letter of Transmittal delivered
by the Holder of such beneficial interests in the Restricted Global Notes. Upon satisfaction of all of the requirements for transfer or exchange of beneficial interests in Global Notes contained in this Indenture and the Notes or otherwise
applicable under the Securities Act, the Trustee shall adjust the principal amount of the relevant Global Note(s) pursuant to Section 2.06(h). 

(3) Transfer of Beneficial Interests to Another Restricted Global Note. A beneficial interest in
any Restricted Global Note may be transferred to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Restricted Global Note if the transfer complies with the requirements of Section 2.06(b)(2) above and the
Registrar receives the following:

interests through Euroclear or Clearstream (as Participants in the Depositary); and 
 (C) if the transferee will take

 (4) Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in a Restricted Global
Note for Beneficial Interests in an Unrestricted Global Note. A beneficial interest in any Restricted Global Note may be exchanged by any holder thereof for a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note or transferred to a Person who

(A) such exchange or transfer is effected pursuant to an Exchange Offer in accordance with the applicable Registration Rights
Agreement and the holder of the beneficial interest to be exchanged, in the case of an exchange, or the transferee, in the case of a transfer, certifies in the applicable Letter of Transmittal (or is deemed to have made such certifications if

 If any such transfer or exchange is effected pursuant to subparagraph (B) or (D) above
at a time when an Unrestricted Global Note has not yet been issued, the Issuer shall issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02, the Trustee shall authenticate one or more Unrestricted Global Notes in an
aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of beneficial interests transferred or exchanged pursuant to this subparagraph (B) or (D) above.

ANY ADDITIONAL NOTES AND THE DATE ON WHICH THIS SECURITY (OR ANY PREDECESSOR OF SUCH SECURITY) WAS FIRST OFFERED TO PERSONS OTHER THAN DISTRIBUTORS (AS DEFINED IN RULE 902 OF REGULATION S) IN RELIANCE ON REGULATION S, ONLY (A) TO THE COMPANY OR
ANY SUBSIDIARY THEREOF, (B) PURSUANT TO A REGISTRATION STATEMENT THAT HAS BEEN DECLARED EFFECTIVE UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, (C) FOR SO LONG AS THE SECURITIES ARE ELIGIBLE FOR RESALE PURSUANT TO RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, TO A
PERSON IT REASONABLY BELIEVES IS A “QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER” AS DEFINED IN RULE 144A THAT PURCHASES FOR ITS OWN ACCOUNT OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OF A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER TO WHOM NOTICE IS GIVEN THAT THE TRANSFER IS BEING MADE IN
RELIANCE ON RULE 144A, (D) PURSUANT TO OFFERS AND SALES TO NON-U.S. PERSONS THAT OCCUR OUTSIDE OF THE UNITED STATES WITHIN THE MEANING OF REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, OR (E) PURSUANT TO
ANOTHER AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT, SUBJECT TO THE COMPANY’S AND THE TRUSTEE’S RIGHT PRIOR TO ANY SUCH OFFER, SALE OR TRANSFER PURSUANT TO CLAUSE (E) TO REQUIRE THE DELIVERY OF AN
OPINION OF COUNSEL, CERTIFICATION AND/ OR OTHER INFORMATION SATISFACTORY TO EACH OF THEM. THIS LEGEND WILL BE REMOVED UPON THE REQUEST OF THE HOLDER AFTER THE RESALE RESTRICTION TERMINATION DATE. IN THE CASE OF REGULATION S NOTES: BY ITS ACQUISITION

  
 53 

 
HEREOF, THE HOLDER HEREOF REPRESENTS THAT IT IS NOT A U.S. PERSON NOR IS IT PURCHASING FOR THE ACCOUNT OF A U.S. PERSON AND IS ACQUIRING THIS SECURITY IN AN OFFSHORE TRANSACTION IN ACCORDANCE
WITH REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT. 
 BY ITS ACQUISITION OF THIS SECURITY (OR ANY INTEREST HEREIN), THE HOLDER THEREOF WILL BE DEEMED TO
HAVE REPRESENTED AND WARRANTED THAT EITHER (1) NO PORTION OF THE ASSETS USED BY SUCH HOLDER TO ACQUIRE OR HOLD THIS SECURITY (OR ANY INTEREST HEREIN) CONSTITUTES THE ASSETS OF (A) ANY EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN THAT IS SUBJECT TO TITLE I OF THE
U.S. EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT INCOME SECURITY ACT OF 1974, AS AMENDED (“ERISA”), (B) A PLAN, INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ACCOUNT OR OTHER ARRANGEMENT THAT IS SUBJECT TO THE PROHIBITED TRANSACTION PROVISIONS OF SECTION 406 OF ERISA OR SECTION 4975 OF
THE U.S. INTERNAL REVENUE CODE OF 1986, AS AMENDED (THE “CODE”) OR PROVISIONS UNDER ANY OTHER U.S. OR NON-U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL OR OTHER LAWS OR REGULATIONS THAT ARE SIMILAR TO SUCH PROVISIONS
OF ERISA AND/OR THE CODE (COLLECTIVELY, “SIMILAR LAWS”) OR (C) OF AN ENTITY WHOSE UNDERLYING ASSETS ARE CONSIDERED TO INCLUDE “PLAN ASSETS” OF ANY SUCH PLAN, ACCOUNT OR ARRANGEMENT DESCRIBED IN CLAUSE (A) OR (B) (EACH
OF (A), (B) AND (C), A “PLAN”) OR (2) (A) THE ACQUISITION AND HOLDING OF THIS SECURITY (OR ANY INTEREST HEREIN) WILL NOT CONSTITUTE A NON-EXEMPT PROHIBITED TRANSACTION UNDER SECTION 406 OF ERISA OR
SECTION 4975 OF THE CODE OR A SIMILAR VIOLATION UNDER ANY APPLICABLE SIMILAR LAWS.” 
 (B) Notwithstanding the
foregoing, any Global Note or Definitive Note issued pursuant to subparagraphs (b)(4), (c)(2), (c)(3), (d)(2), (d)(3), (e)(2), (e)(3) or (f) of this Section 2.06 (and all Notes issued in exchange therefor or substitution thereof) will not
bear the Private Placement Legend. 
 In addition, the foregoing legend may be adjusted for future issuances in accordance
with applicable law. The Issuer, in its discretion, may remove the Private Placement Legend from any Restricted Global Note at any time on or after the Resale Restriction Termination Date applicable to such Note. Without limiting the generality of
the preceding sentence, the Issuer may, subject to Applicable Procedures, effect such removal by issuing and delivering, in exchange for such Note, an Unrestricted Global Note without such legend, registered to the same Holder and in an equal
principal amount, and upon receipt by the Trustee of a written order of the Issuer stating that the Resale Restriction Termination Date applicable to such Note has occurred and requesting the authentication and delivery of an Unrestricted Global
Note in exchange therefor (which order shall not be required to be accompanied by any Opinion of Counsel or any other document) given at least three Business Days in advance of the proposed date of exchange specified therein (which shall be no
earlier than such Resale Restriction Termination Date), the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver such Unrestricted Global Note to the Depositary or pursuant to such Depositary’s instructions or hold such Unrestricted Global Note as Custodian
for the Depositary and shall request 

  
 54 

 
the Depositary to, or, if the Trustee is Custodian of such Restricted Global Note, shall itself, surrender such Restricted Global Note in exchange for such Unrestricted Global Note without such
legend and thereupon cancel such Restricted Global Note so surrendered, all as directed in such order. For purposes of determining whether the Resale Restriction Termination Date has occurred with respect to any Restricted Global Note or delivering
any order pursuant to this Section 2.06(g)(1) with respect to such Restricted Global Notes, (i) only those Restricted Global Notes that a Principal Officer of the Issuer actually knows (after reasonable inquiry) to be or to have been owned
by an Affiliate of the Issuer shall be deemed to be or to have been, respectively, owned by an Affiliate of the Issuer; and (ii) “Principal Officer” means an Officer of the Issuer that is the principal executive officer, the principal
financial officer, the treasurer or the principal accounting officer. For purposes of this Section 2.06(g)(1), all provisions relating to the removal of the Private Placement Legend shall relate, if the Resale Restriction Termination Date has
occurred only with respect to a portion of the Notes evidenced by a Restricted Global Note, to such portion of the Notes so evidenced as to which the Resale Restriction Termination Date has occurred. 

Each Holder of any Note evidenced by any Restricted Global Note, by its acceptance thereof, (A) authorizes and consents to,
(B) appoints each Issuer as its agent for the sole purpose of delivering such electronic messages, executing and delivering such instruments and taking such other actions, on such Holder’s behalf, as the Depositary or the Trustee may
require to effect, and (C) upon the request of the Issuer, agrees to deliver such electronic messages, execute and deliver such instruments and take such other actions as the Depositary or the Trustee may require, or as shall otherwise be
necessary to effect, the removal of the Private Placement Legend (including by means of the exchange of all or the portion of such Restricted Global Note evidencing such Note for a certificate evidencing such Note that does not bear such legend) at
any time after the Resale Restriction Termination Date. 
 (2) Global Note Legend. Each Global Note will bear a legend
in substantially the following form: 
 “THIS GLOBAL NOTE IS HELD BY THE DEPOSITARY (AS DEFINED IN THE INDENTURE GOVERNING THIS NOTE) OR ITS NOMINEE
IN CUSTODY FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE BENEFICIAL OWNERS HEREOF, AND IS NOT TRANSFERABLE TO ANY PERSON UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES EXCEPT THAT (1) THE TRUSTEE MAY MAKE SUCH NOTATIONS HEREON AS MAY BE REQUIRED PURSUANT TO SECTION 2.06 OF THE INDENTURE,
(2) THIS GLOBAL NOTE MAY BE EXCHANGED IN WHOLE BUT NOT IN PART PURSUANT TO SECTION 2.06(a) OF THE INDENTURE, (3) THIS GLOBAL NOTE MAY BE DELIVERED TO THE TRUSTEE FOR CANCELLATION PURSUANT TO SECTION 2.11 OF THE INDENTURE AND (4) THIS
GLOBAL NOTE MAY BE TRANSFERRED TO A SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY WITH THE PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT OF THE ISSUER. 

  
 55 

 UNLESS AND UNTIL IT IS EXCHANGED IN WHOLE OR IN PART FOR NOTES IN DEFINITIVE FORM, THIS NOTE MAY NOT BE
TRANSFERRED EXCEPT AS A WHOLE BY THE DEPOSITARY TO A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY OR BY A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY TO THE DEPOSITARY OR ANOTHER NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY OR BY THE DEPOSITARY OR ANY SUCH NOMINEE TO A SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY OR A NOMINEE
OF SUCH SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY. UNLESS THIS CERTIFICATE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY (55 WATER STREET, NEW YORK, NEW YORK) (“DTC”), TO THE ISSUER OR ITS AGENT FOR REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER,
EXCHANGE OR PAYMENT, AND ANY CERTIFICATE ISSUED IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF CEDE & CO. OR SUCH OTHER NAME AS MAY BE REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC (AND ANY PAYMENT IS MADE TO CEDE & CO. OR SUCH OTHER ENTITY AS
MAY BE REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL INASMUCH AS THE REGISTERED OWNER HEREOF, CEDE & CO., HAS AN INTEREST HEREIN.”

 (h) Cancellation and/or Adjustment of Global Notes. At such time as all beneficial interests in a particular
Global Note have been exchanged for beneficial interests in another Global Note or Definitive Notes, or a particular Global Note has been redeemed, repurchased or canceled in whole and not in part, each such Global Note will be returned to or
retained and canceled by the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.11. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of
a beneficial interest in another Global Note or for Definitive Notes, the principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note will be reduced accordingly and an endorsement will be made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by the Depositary
at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such reduction; and if the beneficial interest is being exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note, such other Global
Note will be increased accordingly and an endorsement will be made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by the Depositary at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such increase. 

(i) General Provisions Relating to Transfers and Exchanges. 

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

(2) No service charge will be made to a Holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Note or to a Holder of a Definitive Note
for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes or similar governmental
charge payable upon exchange pursuant to Sections 2.10, 3.06, 3.09, 4.10, 4.15 and 9.04 not involving any transfer). 

  
 56 

 (3) The Registrar will not be required to register the transfer of or
exchange of any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. 

(4) All Global Notes and Definitive Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Global Notes or Definitive
Notes will be the valid obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Global Notes or Definitive Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. 

(5) Neither the Registrar nor the Issuer will be required: 

(A) to issue, to register the transfer of or to exchange any Notes during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days
before the day of any selection of Notes for redemption under Section 3.02 and ending at the close of business on the day of selection; 

(B) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed
portion of any Note being redeemed in part; or 
 (C) to register the transfer of or to exchange a Note between a record date
and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date. 
 (6) Prior to due presentment for the registration of a transfer of any
Note, the Trustee, any Agent and the Issuer may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest on such Notes and for all other
purposes, and none of the Trustee, any Agent or the Issuer shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 (7) The Trustee
will authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02. 
 (8) All
certifications, certificates and Opinions of Counsel required to be submitted to the Registrar pursuant to this Section 2.06 to effect a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted by facsimile or electronic image scan. 

Section 2.07 Replacement Notes. 

If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or the Issuer and the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction,
loss or theft of any Note, and such other reasonable requirements as may be imposed by the Issuer as permitted by Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code have been satisfied, then, in the absence of
notice to the Issuer or the Trustee that such Note has been acquired by a “protected purchaser” within the meaning of Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code, the Issuer will issue and the
Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, will authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements are met. If required by the Trustee or the Issuer, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the
judgment of the Trustee and the Issuer to protect the Issuer, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Issuer may charge for its expenses in replacing a Note. 

  
 57 

 Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Issuer and will be entitled to all
of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder. 
 Section 2.08
Outstanding Notes. 
 The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those
canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding. Except as
set forth in Section 2.09, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer holds the Note. 

If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the
replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser within the meaning of Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code. 

If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.01, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to
accrue. 
 If the Paying Agent (other than the Issuer, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds, by 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on a
redemption date or other maturity date, money sufficient to pay Notes payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes will be deemed to be no longer outstanding and will cease to accrue interest. 

Section 2.09 Treasury Notes. 

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

Section 2.10 Temporary Notes. 

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

  
 58 

 Section 2.11 Cancellation. 

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

If the Issuer defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it will pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent
lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01; provided that a special record date shall not be
required with respect to payments of defaulted interest made within the applicable grace period for such payment. The Issuer will notify the Trustee, and the Paying Agent if other than the Trustee, in writing of the amount of defaulted interest
proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment. The Issuer will fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date and payment date; provided that no such special record date may be less than 10 days prior to the
related payment date for such defaulted interest. For purposes of Sections 2.05, 2.06, 3.05, 3.07, 3.09, 4.10 and 4.15, reference to “Interest Payment Date” shall be deemed to refer to and include any such payment date so fixed. At least
15 days before the special record date, the Issuer (or, upon the written request of the Issuer, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuer) will mail or cause to be mailed to Holders a notice that states the special record date, the
related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid. 
 Section 2.13 Issuance of Additional Notes.

 (a) The Issuer shall be entitled, subject to its compliance with Article Four, to issue Additional Notes under this Indenture. Any
Additional Notes shall be part of the same series as the Initial Notes issued on the date hereof, rank equally with the Initial Notes and have identical terms and conditions to the Initial Notes in all respects other than (a) the date of
issuance, (b) the issue price, (c) rights under a related Registration Rights Agreement, if any, and (d) at the option of the Issuer, (i) as to the payment of interest accruing prior to the issue date of such Additional Notes,
and (ii) the first payment of interest following the issue date of such Additional Notes. The Initial Notes, any Additional Notes subsequently issued upon original issue under this Indenture and all Exchange Notes issued in exchange for Initial
Notes or any Additional Notes shall be treated as a single class for all purposes under this Indenture, including directions, waivers, amendments, consents, redemptions and offers to purchase, and none of the Holders of any Initial Notes, any
Exchange Notes or any Additional Notes shall have the right to vote or consent as a separate class on any matter to which such Holders are entitled to vote or consent; provided, however, that if any Additional Notes are not fungible with the
Initial Notes, such Additional Notes shall have a different CUSIP number (or other applicable identifying number). 

  
 59 

 (b) With respect to any Additional Notes, the Issuer shall set forth in an Officers’
Certificate, a copy of which shall be delivered to the Trustee at or prior to original issuance thereof, the following information: 

(1) the aggregate principal amount of such Additional Notes to be authenticated and delivered pursuant to this Indenture; 

(2) the issue date (and the corresponding date from which interest shall accrue thereon and the first Interest Payment Date
therefor), the CUSIP and/or ISIN number and the issue price of such Additional Notes; and 
 (3) whether such Additional
Notes shall be subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 2.06 relating to Restricted Global Notes and Restricted Definitive Notes. 

(c) Notwithstanding anything else herein, with respect to any Additional Notes issued subsequent to the date hereof, when the context requires,
(1) all references in Article 2 herein and elsewhere in this Indenture to a Registration Rights Agreement shall be to the Registration Rights Agreement entered into with respect to such Additional Notes, (2) any references in this
Indenture to the Exchange Offer, Exchange Offer Registration Statement, Shelf Registration Statement, and any other term related thereto shall be to such terms as they are defined in such Registration Rights Agreement entered into with respect to
such Additional Notes, (3) all time periods described in the Notes with respect to the registration of such Additional Notes shall be as provided in such Registration Rights Agreement entered into with respect to such Additional Notes,
(4) any Additional Interest, if set forth in such Registration Rights Agreement, may be paid to the Holders of the Additional Notes immediately prior to the making or the consummation of the Exchange Offer regardless of any other provisions
regarding record dates herein and (5) all provisions of this Indenture shall be construed and interpreted to permit the issuance of such Additional Notes and to allow such Additional Notes to become fungible and interchangeable with the Initial
Notes originally issued under this Indenture (and Exchange Notes issued in exchange therefor). Indebtedness represented by Additional Notes shall be subject to the covenants contained in this Indenture. 

Section 2.14 Computation of Interest. 

Interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 
 ARTICLE 3 

REDEMPTION AND PREPAYMENT 

Section 3.01 Notices to Trustee. 

If the Issuer elects to redeem Notes pursuant to the optional redemption provisions of Section 3.07, the Issuer must furnish to the
Trustee, at least five Business Days prior to the giving of notice of a redemption (or such shorter period as shall be acceptable to the Trustee), an Officers’ Certificate setting forth: 

  
 60 

 (a) the clause of this Indenture pursuant to which the redemption shall occur; 

(b) the redemption date; 
 (c) the
principal amount of Notes to be redeemed; and 
 (d) the redemption price (if then determined and otherwise the method of determination).

 Section 3.02 Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed. 

If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee will select Notes for redemption on a pro rata basis (or, in
the case of Notes issued in global form pursuant to Article 2, based on a method as DTC or its nominee or successor may require or, where such nominee or successor is the Trustee, a method that most nearly approximates pro rata selection as
the Trustee deems fair and appropriate) unless otherwise required by law or applicable stock exchange or depositary requirements. 
 In the
event of partial redemption by lot, the particular Notes to be redeemed will be selected, unless otherwise provided herein, not less than 15 nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date by the Trustee from the outstanding Notes not previously
called for redemption. 
 The Trustee will promptly notify the Issuer in writing of the Notes selected for redemption and, in the case of
any Note selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. Notes and portions of Notes selected will be in amounts of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. Except as provided in the preceding sentence,
provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption. 

Section 3.03 Notice of Redemption. 

At least 15 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, the Issuer will mail or cause to be mailed, by first class mail (or sent
electronically if DTC is the recipient), a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be given more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued
in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Article 8 or 11. 
 The notice
will identify the Notes to be redeemed and will state: 
 (a) the redemption date; 

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

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

  
 61 

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

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

(f) that, unless the Issuer defaults in making such redemption payment, interest on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption ceases to
accrue on and after the redemption date; 
 (g) the paragraph of the Notes and/or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Notes
called for redemption are being redeemed; 
 (h) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP or ISIN
number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes; and 
 (i) any conditions precedent to such redemption. 

At the Issuer’s request, the Trustee will give the notice of redemption in the Issuer’s names and at the Issuer’s expense;
provided, however, that the Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.01 requests that the Trustee give such notice and sets forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in the preceding
paragraph. 
 Section 3.04 Effect of Notice of Redemption. 

Once notice of redemption is given in accordance with Section 3.03, Notes or portions thereof called for redemption become irrevocably due
and payable (subject to satisfaction of any conditions to such redemption) on the redemption date at the redemption price. A notice of redemption may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent. If a redemption
is subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, the related notice shall describe each such condition, and if applicable, shall state that, in the Issuer’s discretion, the date of redemption may be delayed until such time as
any or all such conditions shall be satisfied or waived (provided that in no event shall such date of redemption be delayed to a date later than 60 days after the date on which such notice was sent), or such redemption may not occur and such
notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied or waived by the Issuer by the date of redemption, or by the date of redemption as so delayed. 

Section 3.05 Deposit of Redemption Price. 

No later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the redemption date, the Issuer will deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent money
sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on all Notes to be redeemed on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent will promptly return to the Issuer any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Issuer in
excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on all Notes to be redeemed. 

  
 62 

 If the Issuer complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on and after the
redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption. If a Note is redeemed on or after an interest record date but on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, then any accrued and unpaid
interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such record date. If any Note called for redemption is not so paid upon surrender for redemption because of the failure of the Issuer to comply
with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption date until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the
Notes and in Section 4.01. 
 Section 3.06 Notes Redeemed in Part. 

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

Section 3.07 Optional Redemption. 

(a) At any time prior to February 1, 2022, the Issuer may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount
of the Notes (including, without limitation, any Additional Notes) issued under this Indenture, in an amount not greater than the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings by the Issuer, upon notice as provided in this Indenture, at a
redemption price equal to 109.250% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption (subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the
relevant Interest Payment Date); provided that (1) at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes originally issued on the date of this Indenture (excluding Notes held by the Issuer and its Subsidiaries) remains outstanding
immediately after the occurrence of such redemption; and (2) the redemption occurs within 180 days of the date of the closing of such Equity Offering. 

(b) At any time prior to February 1, 2022, the Issuer may on any one or more occasions redeem all or a part of the Notes, upon notice as
provided in this Indenture, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption, subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on
the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date. 
 (c) Except pursuant to Section 3.07(a), (b)
or (e), the Notes will not be redeemable at the Issuer’s option prior to February 1, 2022. 
 (d) On and after February 1,
2022, the Issuer may on any one or more occasions redeem all or a part of the Notes, upon notice as provided in this Indenture, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest
on the Notes redeemed to the applicable date of redemption, subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on
February 1 of the years indicated below: 

  
 63

	 2022
	  	 	106.938	% 
	 2023
	  	 	104.625	% 
	 2024
	  	 	102.313	% 
	 2025 and thereafter
	  	 	100.000	% 

 (e) The Issuer may redeem all (but not a portion of) the Notes when permitted by, and pursuant to the
conditions in, Section 4.15(f). 
 (f) Any redemption pursuant to this Section 3.07 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of
Sections 3.01 through 3.06. 
 Section 3.08 Mandatory Redemption. 

The Issuer is not required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes. The Issuer may at any time and from
time to time purchase Notes in the open market or otherwise, in each case without any restriction under this Indenture. 
 Section 3.09
Offer to Purchase by Application of Excess Proceeds. 
 In the event that, pursuant to Section 4.10, the Issuer is required to
commence an Asset Sale Offer to all Holders to purchase Notes, it will follow the procedures specified below. 
 The Asset Sale Offer shall
be made to all Holders and all holders of other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes containing provisions similar to those set forth in this Indenture with respect to offers to purchase, prepay or redeem with the proceeds of sales
of assets. The Asset Sale Offer will remain open for a period of at least 20 Business Days following its commencement and not more than 30 Business Days, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the “Offer
Period”). No later than three Business Days after the termination of the Offer Period (the “Purchase Date”), the Issuer will apply all Excess Proceeds (the “Offer Amount”) to the purchase of Notes and such
other pari passu Indebtedness (on a pro rata basis based on the principal amount of Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness surrendered, if applicable) or, if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes and
other Indebtedness tendered in response to the Asset Sale Offer. Payment for any Notes so purchased will be made in the same manner specified in the last paragraph of this Section 3.09. 

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

 Upon the commencement of an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuer will send, by first class mail, a

 (b) the Offer Amount, the purchase price and the Purchase Date;

Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Note purchased; 
 (h) that, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes surrendered by
Holders thereof exceeds the Offer Amount allocated to the purchase of Notes in the Asset Sale Offer, the Trustee will select the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis (except that any Notes represented by a Global Note shall be selected
by such method as DTC or its nominee or successor may require or, where such nominee or successor is the Trustee, a method that most nearly approximates pro rata selection as the Trustee deems fair and appropriate) based on the principal
amount of Notes surrendered (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Issuer so that only Notes in denominations of $2,000, and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof; and

and from and after such date (unless the Issuer shall default in the payment of the purchase price) such Notes shall cease to accrue interest. The Issuer, the depositary for the Asset Sale Offer or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, will promptly
(but in any case not later than five days after the Purchase Date) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes tendered by such Holder and accepted by the Issuer for purchase (or, if any Notes are then
in global form, it will promptly make such payment thereon through the facilities of DTC), and the Issuer will promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee, upon written request from the Issuer, will authenticate and mail or deliver (or cause to be
transferred by book entry) such new Note to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered. Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Issuer to the Holder thereof. The Issuer

Payment of Notes. 
 The Issuer will pay or cause to be paid the principal of, premium on, if any, and interest on the
Notes on the dates and in the manner provided in the Notes. Principal, premium, if any, and interest will be considered paid on the date due if the Paying Agent, if other than the Issuer or a Subsidiary of the Issuer, holds as of 11:00 a.m.,
New York City time, on the due date money deposited by the Issuer in immediately available funds and designated for and sufficient to pay all principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, then due. All references in this Indenture or the Notes
to “interest” shall be deemed to include Additional Interest, if any, unless the context requires otherwise. The Issuer will pay all Additional Interest, if any, in the same manner on the dates and in the amounts set forth in the
applicable Registration Rights Agreement. 
 The Issuer will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any
Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal at a rate that is equal to the then applicable interest rate on the Notes to the extent lawful; the Issuer will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on
overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace period), at the same rate to the extent lawful. 
 The Issuer may
at any time, for the purpose of obtaining satisfaction and discharge with respect to the Notes or for any other purpose, pay, or direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Issuer or such Paying Agent, such sums to
be held by the Trustee upon the same terms as those upon which such sums were held by the Issuer or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with
respect to such money. 

  
 66 

 Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Issuer, in
trust for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, and premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Issuer on its request,
or (if then held by the Issuer) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter look only to the Issuer for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money,
and all liability of the Issuer as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, shall, at the expense of the Issuer, cause to be published
once, in The New York Times or The Wall Street Journal (national edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any
unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Issuer. 
 Section 4.02 Maintenance of Office or
Agency.  
 The Issuer will maintain, an office or agency (which may be an office of the Trustee or an affiliate of the
Trustee) where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Issuer will give prompt written notice to the
Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Issuer fails to maintain any such required office or agency or fails to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations,
surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee. 
 The Issuer may also from time to time
designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission will
in any manner relieve the Issuer of its obligation to maintain an office or agency for such purposes. The Issuer will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other
office or agency. 
 The Issuer hereby designates the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee as one such office or agency of the Issuer in
accordance with Section 2.03 of this Indenture. 
 With respect to any Global Notes, the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee shall be
the office or agency where such Global Notes may be presented or surrendered for payment or for registration of transfer or exchange, or where successor Notes may be delivered in exchange therefor; provided, however, that any such
presentation, surrender or delivery effected pursuant to the Applicable Procedures of the Depositary shall be deemed to have been effected at such office or agency in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.

(2) all current reports that would be required to be filed with the SEC on Form 8-K if
the Issuer were required to file such reports. 
 The availability of the foregoing reports on the SEC’s EDGAR filing system will be
deemed to satisfy the foregoing delivery requirements. 
 (b) If the Issuer has designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary any of its
Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary (or that, taken together with other Unrestricted Subsidiaries, would be a Significant Subsidiary), then the quarterly and annual financial information required by Section 4.03(a) will include, to
the extent material, a reasonably detailed presentation, either on the face of the financial statements or in the footnotes thereto, and in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, of the financial
condition and results of operations of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries separate from the financial condition and results of operations of the Unrestricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer. 

(c) In the event that any direct or indirect parent company of the Issuer becomes a guarantor of the Notes, the Issuer may satisfy its
obligations under this Section 4.03 with respect to financial and other information relating to the Issuer by furnishing corresponding information relating to such parent company; provided that the same includes a reasonable summary of
the differences between the information relating to such parent, on the one hand, and the information relating to the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries on a standalone basis, on the other hand.

this Section 4.03 shall be deemed cured (and the Issuer shall be deemed to be in compliance with this Section 4.03) upon furnishing or filing such report or information as contemplated by this Section 4.03 (but without regard to the
date on which such report or information is so furnished or filed); provided that such cure shall not otherwise affect the rights of the Holders under Article 6 if the principal, premium, if any, and interest have been accelerated in
accordance with the terms of this Indenture and such acceleration has not been rescinded or cancelled prior to such cure. 
 (e) For so long
as any Notes remain outstanding, the Issuer will furnish to the Holders and Beneficial Owners of the Notes and to securities analysts and prospective investors in the Notes, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to
Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act. 
 (f) This Section 4.03 does not impose any duty on the Issuer under the Sarbanes Oxley Act
of 2002 and the related SEC rules that would not otherwise be applicable. 
 (f) The Issuer will be deemed to have furnished to the Holders
and Beneficial Owners of the Notes and to securities analysts and prospective investors the reports referred to in clauses (1) and (2) of Section 4.03(a) or the information referred to in Section 4.03(e) if the Issuer has posted such

(b) So long as any of the Notes are outstanding, upon any Officer of the issuer becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, the Issuer
shall deliver to the Trustee a written statement specifying such Default or Event of Default and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto within 30 days after such Officer becomes aware of the occurrence and
continuance of such Event of Default, unless such Default or Event of Default has been cured before the end of the 30-day period.

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

of the Guarantors (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein
granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law has been enacted.

 (C) such Restricted Payment, together with the aggregate amount of all other Restricted Payments made by the Issuer and
its Restricted Subsidiaries since the date of this Indenture (excluding Restricted Payments permitted by clauses (1) (with respect to a Restricted Payment made under clauses (2) through (13) of Section 4.07(b)) or clauses (2) through

Equity Interests of any such Person; 
 (11) the purchase, redemption or other acquisition or retirement for value of

(13) any Restricted Payment, which when combined with the outstanding amount of all other Restricted Payments effected pursuant
to this clause (13), does not exceed $100.0 million at any one time outstanding. 
 The amount of all Restricted Payments (other than

the case may be, pursuant to the Restricted Payment, except that the Fair Market Value of any non-cash dividend paid within 60 days after the date of declaration will be determined as of such date of
declaration. The Fair Market Value of any Restricted Investment, assets or securities that are required to be valued by this Section 4.07 will be determined in accordance with the definition of that term. For purposes of determining compliance
with this Section 4.07, in the event that a Restricted Payment (or payment or other transaction that, except for being a Permitted Investment or Permitted Payment, would constitute a Restricted Payment) meets the criteria of more than one of
the categories of Restricted Payments described in the preceding clauses (1) through (13) of 

  
 74 

 Section 4.07(b), or is permitted pursuant to Section 4.07(a) or is a Permitted Investment or
Permitted Payment, the Issuer will be permitted to classify (or later classify or reclassify in whole or in part in its sole discretion) such Restricted Payment or other such transaction (or portion thereof) on the date made or later reclassify such
Restricted Payment or other such transaction (or portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this Section 4.07. “Permitted Payment” means any transaction expressly excluded from clauses (1), (2) and (3) of
Section 4.07(a). 
 For purposes of this Section 4.07 and the definition of “Permitted Investments,” a contribution,
sale or incurrence will be deemed to be “substantially concurrent” if the related Restricted Payment or purchase, repurchase, redemption, defeasance, satisfaction and discharge, retirement or other acquisition for value or payment of
principal or acquisition of assets or Capital Stock occurs no later than 180 days after such contribution, sale or incurrence. 

Section 4.08 Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries.  

(a) The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or permit to exist or become
effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to: 
 (1) pay dividends or
make any other distributions on its Capital Stock to the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, or pay any Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided that (i) the priority that any series of
Preferred Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary has in receiving dividends or liquidating distributions before dividends or liquidating distributions are paid in respect of common stock of such Restricted Subsidiary shall not constitute a restriction on
the ability to pay or make dividends or distributions on Capital Stock for purposes of this Section 4.08 and (ii) the subordination of Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary to other Indebtedness incurred by any
Restricted Subsidiary shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to pay Indebtedness; 
 (2) make loans or advances to
the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (it being understood that the subordination of loans or advances made to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary to other Indebtedness incurred by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary shall not be
deemed a restriction on the ability to make loans or advances); or 
 (3) sell, lease or transfer any of its properties or
assets to the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries. 
 (b) The restrictions in Section 4.08(a) will not apply to encumbrances
or restrictions existing under or by reason of: 
 (1) agreements governing Existing Indebtedness and the Credit Agreement as
in effect on the date of this Indenture and any amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of those agreements; provided that the amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals,
supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, with respect to such dividend and other payment restrictions than those contained in those agreements on the date of this Indenture, as
determined in good faith by the Issuer; 

  
 75 

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

(3) agreements governing other Indebtedness permitted to be incurred under the provisions of Section 4.09 and any
amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of those agreements; provided that the restrictions therein are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained
in this Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees or the Credit Agreement as in effect on the date of this Indenture, as determined in good faith by the Issuer; 

(4) applicable law, rule, regulation, order, approval, license, permit or similar restriction; 

(5) any instrument governing Indebtedness or Capital Stock or other agreement of a Person acquired (including by merger or
consolidation), or the assets of which are acquired, by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries as in effect at the time of such acquisition (except to the extent such Indebtedness or Capital Stock or other agreement was incurred in
connection with or in contemplation of such acquisition), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person, or the property or assets of the Person, so acquired;
provided that, in the case of Indebtedness, such Indebtedness was permitted by the terms of this Indenture to be incurred; 

(6) customary non-assignment provisions in Hydrocarbon purchase and sale or exchange
agreements or similar operational agreements or in licenses, easements or leases, in each case, entered into in the ordinary course of business;

Subsidiary pending its sale or other disposition; 
 (9) Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; provided that the
restrictions contained in the agreements governing such Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in the agreements governing the Indebtedness being refinanced, as determined in
good faith by the Issuer; 
 (10) Liens permitted to be incurred under the provisions of Section 4.12 that limit the
right of the debtor to dispose of the assets subject to such Liens; 

  
 76 

 (11) provisions limiting the disposition or distribution of assets or
property in joint venture agreements, asset sale agreements, sale-leaseback agreements, stock sale agreements, shareholders’ agreements, partnership agreements and other similar agreements (including agreements entered into in connection with a
Restricted Investment) entered into with the approval of the Board of Directors of the Issuer or in the ordinary course of business, which limitation is applicable only to the assets or property that is the subject of such agreements; 

(12) any agreement or instrument relating to any property or assets acquired after the date of this Indenture, so long as such
encumbrance or restriction relates only to the property or assets so acquired and is not and was not created in anticipation of such acquisition; 

(13) encumbrances or restrictions on cash, Cash Equivalents or other deposits or net worth requirements imposed by customers or
lessors under contracts or leases entered into in the ordinary course of business; 
 (14) any Preferred Stock issued by a
Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer; provided that issuance of such Preferred Stock is permitted pursuant to Section 4.09 and the terms of such Preferred Stock do not expressly restrict the ability of a Restricted Subsidiary of the
Issuer to pay dividends or make any other distributions on its Equity Interests (other than requirements to pay dividends or liquidation preferences on such Preferred Stock prior to paying any dividends or making any other distributions on such
other Equity Interests); 
 (15) any encumbrance or restriction contained in the terms of any Indebtedness or any agreement
pursuant to which such Indebtedness was incurred if (x) either (a) the encumbrance or restriction applies only in the event of a payment default or a default with respect to a financial covenant in such Indebtedness or agreement or (b) any
such encumbrance or restriction will not materially affect the Issuer’s ability to make principal or interest payments on the Notes, as determined in good faith by the Issuer and (y) the encumbrance or restriction is not materially more
disadvantageous to the Holders than is customary in comparable financings or agreements, as determined in good faith by the Issuer; 

(16) Hedging Obligations permitted from time to time under this Indenture; 

(17) encumbrances and restrictions contained in contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business, not relating to any
Indebtedness, and that do not, taken as a whole, detract from the value of, or from the ability of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries to realize the value of, property or assets of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary in any manner
material to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary, as determined in good faith by the Issuer; provided that such encumbrances or restrictions will not materially affect the Issuer’s ability to make principal or interest payments on the
Notes, as determined in good faith by the Issuer; 

  
 77 

 (18) customary encumbrances and restrictions contained in agreements of the
types described in the definition of “Permitted Business Investments”; or 
 (19) any Permitted Investment. 

In each case set forth above, notwithstanding any stated limitation on the assets or property that may be subject to such encumbrance or
restriction, an encumbrance or restriction on a specified asset or property or group or type of assets or property may also apply to all improvements, additions, accessions and contractual rights relating primarily thereto and all proceeds thereof
(including dividends, distributions and increases in respect thereof). 
 Section 4.09 Incurrence of Indebtedness and
Issuance of Preferred Stock.  
 (a) The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to,
directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect to (collectively, “incur”) any Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), and
the Issuer will not issue any Disqualified Stock and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to issue any Preferred Stock; provided, however, that the Issuer may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) or issue
Disqualified Stock, and any Guarantor may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) or issue Preferred Stock, if the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the Issuer’s most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial
statements are available immediately preceding the date on which such additional Indebtedness is incurred or such Disqualified Stock or such Preferred Stock is issued, as the case may be, would have been at least 2.0 to 1.0, determined on a pro
forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom), as if the additional Indebtedness had been incurred or the Disqualified Stock or the Preferred Stock had been issued, as the case may be, at the beginning of such
four-quarter period. 
 (b) Section 4.09(a) will not prohibit the incurrence of any of the following items of Indebtedness or issuances
of Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, as applicable (collectively, “Permitted Debt”): 
 (1) the
incurrence by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary (whether as borrower or guarantor) of Indebtedness and letters of credit under one or more Credit Facilities in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding under this clause (1)
(with letters of credit being deemed to have a principal amount equal to the maximum potential liability of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries thereunder) not to exceed the greatest of (i) $3.0 billion, (ii) the Borrowing Base and
(iii) $500.0 million plus 30.0% of Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets determined on the date of such incurrence; 

(2) the incurrence by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries of the Existing Indebtedness; 

(3) the incurrence by the Issuer and the Guarantors of Indebtedness represented by (a) the Notes to be issued on the date
of this Indenture, (b) the Exchange Notes issued pursuant to any Registration Rights Agreement; and (c) any Guarantees. 

  
 78 

 (4) the incurrence by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of
Indebtedness represented by Finance Lease Obligations, mortgage financings or purchase money obligations or other Indebtedness, in each case, incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price or other acquisition cost or
cost of design, construction, installation, development, repair or improvement of property, plant or equipment used in the business of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (together with improvements, additions, accessions and
contractual rights relating primarily thereto), and any Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to renew, refund, refinance, replace, defease or discharge any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (4), in an aggregate principal amount,
when taken together with the outstanding amount of all other Indebtedness or Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (4), not to exceed the greater of (a) $350.0 million and (b) 5.0% of Adjusted Consolidated Net
Tangible Assets determined at the date of such incurrence; 
 (5) the incurrence by the Issuer or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in exchange for, or the net proceeds of which are used to renew, refund, refinance, replace, defease or discharge any Indebtedness (other than intercompany Indebtedness) or Disqualified Stock or
Preferred Stock that was permitted by this Indenture to be incurred under Section 4.09(a) or clause (2), (3), (5) or (15) of this Section 4.09(b); 

(6) the incurrence by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of intercompany Indebtedness between or among the Issuer
and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, however, that: 
 (A) if the Issuer or any Guarantor is the obligor
on such Indebtedness and the payee is not the Issuer or a Guarantor, such Indebtedness must be unsecured and expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all Obligations then due with respect to the Notes, in the case of the
Issuer, or the Guarantee, in the case of a Guarantor; and 
 (B) (i) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity
Interests that results in any such Indebtedness being held by a Person other than the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer and (ii) any sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person that is not either the Issuer or a
Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer, 
 will be deemed, in each case, to constitute an incurrence of such Indebtedness by the Issuer or such
Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, that was not permitted by this clause (6); 
 (7) the issuance by any of the
Issuer’s Restricted Subsidiaries to the Issuer or to any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of any Preferred Stock; provided, however, that: 

(A) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that results in any such Preferred Stock being held by a Person
other than the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer; and 

  
 79 

 (B) any sale or other transfer of any such Preferred Stock to a Person that
is not either the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer, 
 will be deemed, in each case, to constitute an issuance of such
Preferred Stock by such Restricted Subsidiary that was not permitted by this clause (7); 
 (8) the incurrence by the Issuer
or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Hedging Obligations; 
 (9) the guarantee by the Issuer or any of the Guarantors of
Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer to the extent that the guaranteed Indebtedness was permitted to be incurred by another provision of this Section 4.09; provided that if the Indebtedness being guaranteed
is subordinated to or pari passu with the Notes, then the guarantee must be subordinated or pari passu, as applicable, to the same extent as the Indebtedness guaranteed, and if the guarantee is by a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a
Guarantor, the Indebtedness guaranteed could have otherwise been incurred by such Restricted Subsidiary under this Section 4.09; 

(10) the incurrence by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness in respect of self-insurance
obligations or bid, plugging and abandonment, appeal, reimbursement, performance, surety and similar bonds and completion guarantees issued or provided by, or for the account of, the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary in the ordinary course of
business and any guarantee or obligations with respect to letters of credit functioning as or supporting any of the foregoing bonds or obligations and workers’ compensation claims in the ordinary course of business; 

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

(12) the incurrence by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of in-kind
obligations relating to net oil or natural gas balancing positions arising in the ordinary course of business; 
 (13) the
incurrence of any obligation arising from agreements of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer providing for indemnification, guarantees (other than guarantees of Indebtedness), adjustment of purchase price, holdbacks, earn outs or
similar obligations, in each case, incurred or assumed in connection with the disposition or acquisition of any business, assets or Capital Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary in a transaction permitted by this Indenture, provided such obligation is
not reflected on the face of the balance sheet of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary; 
 (14) the pledge of (or a
Guaranty limited in recourse solely to) Equity Interests in an Unrestricted Subsidiary or Joint Venture held by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary to secure Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary or Joint Venture and solely to the extent
such Indebtedness constitutes Non-Recourse Debt; 

  
 80 

 (15) the incurrence by the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiaries of
Permitted Acquisition Indebtedness; 
 (16) the incurrence by the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness
consisting of the financing of insurance premiums in customary amounts consistent with the operations and business of the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries; and 

(17) the incurrence by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of additional Indebtedness or the issuance by the Issuer of any
Disqualified Stock or by any Restricted Subsidiary of Preferred Stock in an aggregate principal amount, when taken together with the outstanding amount of all other Indebtedness incurred or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock issued pursuant to
this clause (17), not to exceed the greater of (i) $350.0 million and (ii) 5.0% of Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets determined on the date of such incurrence or issuance. 

Indebtedness permitted by this Section 4.09 need not be permitted solely by reference to one provision permitting such Indebtedness or
Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock but may be permitted in part by one such provision and in part by one or more other provisions of this Section 4.09. For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.09, in the event that an
item of Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (1) through (17) of this Section 4.09(b), or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to
Section 4.09(a), the Issuer will be permitted to divide, classify and reclassify such item of Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock on the date of its incurrence or issuance, or later redivide or reclassify all or a portion of
such item of Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, in any manner (including by dividing and classifying such item of Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock in more than one type of Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock
or Preferred Stock permitted under this Section 4.09) that complies with this Section 4.09; provided that Indebtedness outstanding under Credit Facilities on the date of this Indenture shall be considered incurred under clause
(1) of this Section 4.09(b) and may not be reclassified. 
 The dollar equivalent principal amount of any Indebtedness denominated
in a foreign currency and incurred pursuant to any dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness shall be calculated based on the relevant exchange rates in effect at the time of incurrence, in the case of term Indebtedness, or
first committed, in the case of revolving credit Indebtedness; provided that if such Indebtedness is incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable U.S.
dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S. dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal
amount of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced. 
 Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Section 4.09, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries may incur pursuant to this Section 4.09 shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in the
exchange rates of currencies. The principal amount of any Indebtedness incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate
applicable to the currencies in which such Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing. 

  
 81 

 The accrual of interest or Preferred Stock dividends, the accretion or amortization of
original issue discount, the payment of interest on any Indebtedness or on the Notes in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same term and the payment of dividends on Preferred Stock or Disqualified Stock in the form of additional securities
of the same class of Preferred Stock or Disqualified Stock will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness or an issuance of Preferred Stock or Disqualified Stock for purposes of this Section 4.09; provided that the amount thereof
is included in Fixed Charges of the Issuer as accrued to the extent required by the definition of such term. For purposes of this Section 4.09, (i) the accrual of an obligation to pay a premium in respect of Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock
or Preferred Stock arising in connection with the issuance of a notice of redemption or making of a mandatory offer to purchase such Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, and (ii) unrealized losses or charges in respect of
Hedging Agreements (including those resulting from the application of FASB ASC Topic No. 815, Derivatives and Hedging) will, in the case of (i) or (ii), not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or
Preferred Stock. Further, the accounting reclassification of any obligation or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries as Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock will not be deemed an
incurrence of Indebtedness or issuance of Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock for purposes of this Section 4.09. 
 The
“amount” or “principal amount” of any Indebtedness or Preferred Stock or Disqualified Stock outstanding at any time of determination as used herein shall be as set forth below or, if not set forth below, determined in accordance
with GAAP: 
  

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

  

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

 

	 	(C)	 in respect of Indebtedness of another Person secured by a Lien on the assets of the specified Person, the
lesser of: 

 (i) the Fair Market Value of such assets at the date of determination; and 

(ii) the amount of the Indebtedness of the other Person; 

 

	 	(D)	 in the case of any Finance Lease Obligation, the amount determined in accordance with the definition thereof;

  

	 	(E)	 in the case of any Preferred Stock, (x) if other than Disqualified Stock, the greater of its voluntary or
involuntary liquidation preference and its maximum fixed redemption price or repurchase price or (y) if Disqualified Stock, as specified in the definition thereof; 

  
 82 

	 	(F)	 in the case of any Interest Rate Agreements included in Section 4.09(b), zero; 

 

	 	(G)	 in the case of all other unconditional obligations, the amount of the liability thereof determined in
accordance with GAAP; and 

  

	 	(H)	 in the case of all other contingent obligations, the maximum liability at such date of such Person.

 For purposes of determining any particular amount of Indebtedness, (i) guarantees of, or obligations in respect of
letters of credit relating to, Indebtedness otherwise included in the determination of such amount shall not also be included and (ii) if obligations in respect of letters of credit are incurred pursuant to a Credit Facility and are being
treated as incurred pursuant to clause (1) of Section 4.09(b) and the letters of credit relate to other Indebtedness, then the amount of such other Indebtedness equal to the face amount of such letters of credit shall not be included. If
Indebtedness is secured by a letter of credit that serves only to secure such Indebtedness, then the total amount deemed incurred shall be equal to the greater of (x) the principal of such Indebtedness and (y) the amount that may be drawn
under such letter of credit. 
 Section 4.10 Asset Sales. 

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

(a) the Issuer (or a Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives consideration at the time of the Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair
Market Value (measured within 15 days of the definitive agreement with respect to such Asset Sale) of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of; and 

(b) at least 75% of the aggregate consideration received in the Asset Sale by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary and all other Asset Sales
since the date of this Indenture is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents. 
 For purposes of this provision, each of the following will be
deemed to be cash: 
 (1) any liabilities, as shown on the Issuer’s most recent consolidated balance sheet, of the
Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any Guarantee) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to a novation or indemnity
agreement that releases the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from or indemnifies against further liability (or in lieu of such absence of liability, the acquiring Person or its parent company agrees to indemnify and hold the Issuer or such
Restricted Subsidiary harmless from and against any loss, liability or cost in respect of such assumed liabilities); 
 (2)
with respect to any Asset Sale of oil and gas properties by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries where the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary retains an interest in such property, the costs and expenses of the Issuer or such Restricted
Subsidiary related to the exploration, development, completion or production of such properties and activities related thereto that the transferee (or an Affiliate thereof) agrees to pay; 

  
 83 

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

(4) Additional Assets; and 

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

(c) Within 360 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale, the Issuer (or any Restricted Subsidiary) may apply such Net
Proceeds at its option to any combination of the following: 
 (1) to repay, redeem or repurchase any Senior Debt; 

(2) to invest in or acquire Additional Assets; or 

(3) to make capital expenditures in respect of the Issuer’s or any Restricted Subsidiaries’ Oil and Gas Business.

 (d) The requirement of clause (2) or (3) of Section 4.10(c) shall be deemed to be satisfied if a bona fide binding contract
committing to make the investment, acquisition or expenditure referred to therein is entered into by the Issuer (or any Restricted Subsidiary) with a Person other than a Restricted Subsidiary within the time period specified in Section 4.10(c)
and such Net Proceeds are subsequently applied in accordance with such contract within six months following the date such agreement is entered into. 

(e) Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds, the Issuer (or any Restricted Subsidiary) may temporarily reduce Indebtedness under any
Credit Facility or otherwise expend or invest the Net Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by this Indenture. 
 (f) Any Net
Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in Section 4.10(c) will constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $50.0 million, within five days thereof, the
Issuer will make an offer (an “Asset Sale Offer”) to all Holders of Notes and all holders of other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes containing provisions similar to those set forth in this Indenture with respect
to offers to purchase, prepay or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets to purchase, prepay or redeem, on a pro rata basis (based on principal amounts of Notes and pari passu Indebtedness (or,

  
 84 

 
in the case of pari passu Indebtedness issued with significant original issue discount, based on the accreted value thereof) tendered), the maximum principal amount of Notes and such other
pari passu Indebtedness (plus all accrued interest on the Indebtedness and the amount of all fees and expenses, including premiums, incurred in connection therewith) that may be purchased, prepaid or redeemed out of the Excess Proceeds. The
offer price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, to the date of purchase, prepayment or redemption, subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive
interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date, and will be payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not
otherwise prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes tendered in such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds allocated to the purchase of Notes, the Trustee will select the Notes to be purchased on a
pro rata basis (except that any Notes represented by a note in global form will be selected by such method as DTC or its nominee or successor may require or, where such nominee or successor is the Trustee, a method that most nearly
approximates pro rata selection as the Trustee deems fair and appropriate), based on the principal amounts tendered (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Issuer so that only Notes in denominations of $2,000 and any
integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof). Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero. The Issuer may satisfy the foregoing obligation with respect to any Excess Proceeds by making an Asset
Sale Offer prior to the expiration of the relevant 360 day period or with respect to Excess Proceeds of $50.0 million or less. 
 (g)
The Issuer will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection
with each repurchase of Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with Section 3.09 or this Section 4.10, the Issuer will comply with the applicable securities
laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under Section 3.09 or this Section 4.10 by virtue of such compliance. 

Section 4.11 Transactions with Affiliates.  

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

(1) the Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are no 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 or, if, as determined in good faith by the Issuer, no comparable transaction is available with which to compare such
Affiliate Transaction, such Affiliate Transaction is otherwise fair to the Issuer or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view; and 

  
 85 

 (2) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee, with respect to any Affiliate
Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $50.0 million, an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions complies
with this Section 4.11 and that such Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions has been approved by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the Issuer and by a majority of the disinterested members of the
Board of Directors of the Issuer, if any. 
 (b) The following items will not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions and, therefore, will not
be subject to the provisions of Section 4.11(a): 
 (1) any employment agreement, employee benefit plan, officer or
director indemnification agreement or any similar arrangement entered into by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business and payments pursuant thereto; 

(2) transactions between or among the Issuer and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries; 

(3) transactions with a Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary of the Issuer) that is an Affiliate of the Issuer solely
because the Issuer owns, directly or through a Restricted Subsidiary, an Equity Interest in, or controls, such Person; 
 (4)
payment of reasonable and customary fees and reimbursement of expenses (pursuant to indemnity agreements or otherwise) of, or provision of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, compensation, indemnification and other benefits to,
officers, directors, employees or consultants of the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries; 
 (5) any issuance of Equity
Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Issuer to Affiliates of the Issuer; 
 (6) any Restricted Payments or
Permitted Investments or Permitted Payments that are permitted by Section 4.07; 
 (7) transactions between the Issuer
or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and any Person that would not otherwise constitute an Affiliate Transaction except for the fact that one director of such other Person is also a director of the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as
applicable; provided that such director abstains from voting as a director of the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, on any matter involving such other Person; 

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

  
 86 

 (9) (a) guarantees by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of
performance of obligations of the Issuer’s Unrestricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business, except for guarantees of Indebtedness in respect of borrowed money, and (b) pledges by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of the
Issuer of (or any guarantee by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary limited in recourse solely to) Equity Interests in Unrestricted Subsidiaries for the benefit of lenders or other creditors of the Issuer’s Unrestricted Subsidiaries; 

(10) transactions with Unrestricted Subsidiaries, customers, clients, suppliers or purchasers or sellers of goods or services,
or lessors or lessees of property, in each case in the ordinary course of business and otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture which are, in the aggregate (taking into account all the costs and benefits associated with such
transactions), not materially less favorable to the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated person or are on terms at
least as favorable as might reasonably have been obtained at such time from an unaffiliated party, in each case, as determined in good faith by the Issuer; 

(11) transactions (other than purchases or sales of assets) effected in accordance with the terms of (a) any agreements
with Affiliates of the Issuer pursuant to agreements in effect on the date of this Indenture, (b) any amendment or replacement of any of such agreements or (c) any agreement entered into hereafter that is similar to any such agreements, so
long as, in the case of clause (b) or (c), the terms of any such amendment or replacement agreement or future agreement, taken as a whole, are no less advantageous to the Issuer or no less favorable to the Holders in any material respect than
the agreement so amended or replaced or the similar such agreement, respectively, as determined in good faith by the Issuer; 

(12) in the case of contracts for exploring for, producing, marketing, storing or otherwise handling Hydrocarbons, or
activities or services reasonably related or ancillary thereto, or other operational contracts, any such contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business and otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture which are fair to the
Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, or are on terms at least as favorable as might reasonably have been obtained at such time from an unaffiliated party, in each case, as determined in good faith by the Issuer; and 

(13) loans or advances to employees in the ordinary course of business not to exceed $2.0 million in the aggregate at any
one time outstanding. 
 Section 4.12 Liens.  

The Issuer will not and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or otherwise cause
or suffer to exist or become effective any Lien of any kind (other than Permitted Liens) securing Indebtedness upon any of their property or assets, now owned or hereafter acquired, unless the Notes or any Guarantee of such Restricted Subsidiary, as
applicable, are secured on an equal and ratable basis with the Indebtedness so secured (or, in the case of Indebtedness subordinated to the Notes or any Guarantee, prior or senior thereto, with 

  
 87 

 
the same relative priority as the Notes or Guarantee shall have with respect to such subordinated Indebtedness) until such time as such Indebtedness is no longer secured by a Lien. Any Lien
created for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes pursuant to the preceding sentence shall provide by its terms that such Lien shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release and discharge of the initial Lien;
provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such release and discharge. In the event of the termination of Section 4.09 of this Indenture pursuant to Section 4.18, all calculations under
Section 4.12 (including with respect to the definition of Permitted Liens) of this Indenture shall be made as if Section 4.09 had not been terminated. 

Section 4.13 [Reserved].  

Section 4.14 Organizational Existence.  

Subject to Article 5, the Issuer shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect the existence,
the rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of the Issuer; provided, however, that the Issuer shall not be required to preserve any such right, license or franchise if the Issuer shall determine that the preservation thereof
is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Issuer. 
 Section 4.15 Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of
Control.  
 (a) If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, each Holder of Notes will have the right to require the
Issuer to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Notes pursuant to a cash tender offer (“Change of Control Offer”) on the terms set forth in this
Section 4.15. In the Change of Control Offer, the Issuer will offer a payment in cash (“Change of Control Payment”) equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the
Notes repurchased to the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Purchase Date”), subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date. 

Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, the Issuer will send a notice to each Holder describing the transaction or
transactions that constitute the Change of Control and offering to repurchase Notes properly tendered prior to the expiration date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such
notice is sent, pursuant to the procedures required by this Section 4.15 and described in such notice. The Issuer will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other
securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provisions of any
securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section 4.15, the Issuer will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.15 by virtue of such
compliance. 
 (b) Promptly following the expiration of the Change of Control Offer, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful, accept for
payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer. Promptly after such acceptance, the Issuer will, on the Change of Control Purchase Date: 

  
 88 

 (1) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control
Payment in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered; and 
 (2) deliver or cause to be delivered to the
Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Issuer. 

Notes to be purchased shall, on the Change of Control Purchase Date, become due and payable at the Change of Control Payment, and from and after such date
(unless the Issuer shall default in depositing the Change of Control Payment) such Notes shall cease to accrue interest. The Paying Agent will promptly mail to each Holder of Notes properly tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Notes (or,
if such Notes are then in global form, it will make such payment thereon through the facilities of DTC), and the Issuer will promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee, upon written request from the Issuer, will promptly authenticate and mail or
deliver (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder such new Note in the principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered by such Holder, if any. The Issuer will publicly announce the results of the Change of
Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Purchase Date. 
 (c) The provisions described above that require the
Issuer to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control Triggering Event will be applicable whether or not any other provisions of this Indenture are applicable. 

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

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

(f) In the event that upon consummation of a Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer less than 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the
Notes (including, without limitation, Additional Notes, if any) that were originally issued are held by Holders other than the Issuer or Affiliates thereof, the Issuer will have the right, upon not less than 15 nor more than 60

  
 89 

 
days prior notice, given not more than 30 days following the purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer described above, to redeem all of the Notes that remain outstanding following such
purchase at a redemption price equal to the Change of Control Payment plus, to the extent not included in the Change of Control Payment, accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes that remain outstanding, to the date of redemption, subject to the
rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date. 
 Section 4.16
Additional Guarantees.  
 If, after the date of this Indenture, any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer that is
not already a Guarantor guarantees or otherwise becomes an obligor with respect to any other Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Guarantor in excess of the De Minimis Guaranteed Amount, then such Restricted Subsidiary will become a Guarantor by
executing a supplemental indenture and delivering it to the Trustee within 20 Business Days of the date on which it guaranteed or became an obligor with respect to such Indebtedness; provided, however, that the preceding shall not
apply to Subsidiaries of the Issuer that have properly been designated as Unrestricted Subsidiaries in accordance with this Indenture for so long as they continue to constitute Unrestricted Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the preceding, any Guarantee
of a Restricted Subsidiary that was incurred pursuant to this paragraph shall be subject to all limitations and provisions described in Article 10, including provisions for the release of such Guarantee. 

Section 4.17 Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries. 

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

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

  
 90 

 Section 4.18 Covenant Termination. 

Notwithstanding any provision of this Indenture or of the Notes to the contrary, if at any time following the date of this Indenture
(a) the Notes are rated Baa3 or better by Moody’s or BBB- or better by S&P (or, if either such entity ceases to rate the Notes for reasons outside of the control of the Issuer, the equivalent
investment grade credit rating from any other “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” within the meaning of Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act selected by the Issuer as a replacement agency), (b) no Default or Event
of Default shall have occurred and be continuing under this Indenture and (c) the Issuer has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate certifying to such events, Sections 3.09, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11 and 4.17 and
Section 5.01(a)(4) of this Indenture will thereafter terminate and no Default or Event of Default shall result from any failure to comply with any of the provisions of such Sections.

Ratio test set forth in Section 4.09(a); or 
 (B) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of the Issuer or the Person formed by
or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Issuer), or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, lease or other disposition has been made, is equal to or greater than the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of the Issuer

provided that: 
 (1) the reorganization involves the conversion (by merger, sale, contribution or exchange of assets or
otherwise) of the Issuer into a form of entity other than a corporation formed under Delaware law; 
 (2) the entity so
formed by or resulting from such reorganization is an entity organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

or (b) is considered to be an “includible corporation” of an affiliated group of corporations within the meaning of Section 1504(b) of the Code or any similar state or local law).

otherwise, in a single transaction or series of transactions) of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of one or more Restricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer, the Capital Stock of which constitutes all or substantially all of the
properties or assets of the Issuer, shall be deemed to be the transfer of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Issuer. 

Section 5.02 Successor Issuer Substituted. 

Upon any consolidation or merger, or any sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the
properties or assets of the Issuer in a transaction that is subject to, and that complies with the provisions of, Section 5.01 in which the Issuer is not the surviving or successor Person, the successor Person formed by such consolidation or
into or with which the Issuer is merged or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, lease or other disposition is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of the Issuer under this Indenture
with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named as the predecessor Issuer herein and shall be substituted for the Issuer (so that from and after the date of such consolidation, merger, sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or
other disposition, the provisions of this Indenture referring to the “Issuer” shall refer instead to the successor Person and not to the predecessor Issuer) and such predecessor Issuer shall be discharged and released from all of its
obligations and covenants under this Indenture and the Notes and the Trustee shall enter into a supplemental indenture to evidence the succession and substitution of such successor and such discharge and release of such predecessor Issuer;
provided, however, that the predecessor Issuer shall not be relieved from the obligation to pay the principal of, or premium or interest, if any, on, the Notes in the case of a lease of all or substantially all of the Issuer’s properties
or assets in a transaction that is subject to, and that complies with the provisions of, Section 5.01. 
 ARTICLE 6

for money borrowed by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries), whether such Indebtedness or guarantee now exists, or is created after the date of
this Indenture, if that default: 
 (1) is caused by a failure to pay principal of, and interest and premium, if any, on,
such Indebtedness prior to the expiration of the grace period provided in such Indebtedness on the date of such default (a “Payment Default”); or 

(2) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity, 

and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been
a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $100.0 million or more; provided, however, if, prior to any acceleration of the Notes, (i) any such Payment Default is cured or waived,
(ii) any such acceleration is rescinded, or (iii) such Indebtedness is repaid during the 60 day period commencing upon the end of any applicable grace period for such Payment Default or the occurrence of such acceleration, as the case may
be, any Default or Event of Default (but not any acceleration of the Notes) caused by such Payment Default or acceleration shall be automatically rescinded, so long as such rescission does not conflict with any judgment, decree or applicable law;

 (h) failure by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to pay final judgments entered by a court or courts of competent
jurisdiction aggregating in excess of $100.0 million (to the extent not covered by insurance by a reputable and creditworthy insurer as to which the insurer has not disclaimed coverage), which judgments are not paid, discharged or stayed, for a
period of 60 days; 
 (i) the Issuer or any of the Issuer’s Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of

(2) appoints a custodian of the Issuer or any of the Issuer’s Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or

or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary; or 

(3) orders the liquidation of the Issuer or any of the Issuer’s Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary
or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary; 
 and the order or
decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days; and 
 (k) except as permitted by this Indenture, any Guarantee is held in any
judicial proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or ceases for any reason to be in full force and effect, or any Guarantor, or any Person acting on behalf of any Guarantor, denies or disaffirms its obligations under its Guarantee, except, in each
case, by reason of the release of such Guarantee in accordance with this Indenture. 
 Section 6.02 Acceleration. 

In the case of an Event of Default specified in clause (i) or (j) of Section 6.01, with respect to the Issuer, any Restricted
Subsidiary of the Issuer that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, the outstanding principal of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any,
on, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then
outstanding Notes may declare the outstanding principal of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, all outstanding Notes to be due and payable immediately. 

Upon any such declaration, the Notes shall become due and payable immediately. 

  
 95 

 The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by
written notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, rescind an acceleration under this Indenture, if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the
payment of principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on, the Notes. 
 Section 6.03 Other Remedies. 

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

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

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of the
Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences hereunder, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on, the Notes or as otherwise
specified in Section 9.02. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any
subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
 Section 6.05 Control by Majority. 

Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any
proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on it. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture that the Trustee determines may be
unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders of Notes or that may involve the Trustee in personal liability. 
 Section 6.06
Limitation on Suits. 
 No Holder of a Note may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless: 

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

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

  
 96 

 (c) such Holder or Holders offer and, if requested, provide to the Trustee security or
indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense; 
 (d) the Trustee does not comply with such request
within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity; and 
 (e) during such
60-day period, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request. 

A Holder of a Note may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder of a Note or to obtain a preference or priority over
another Holder of a Note. 
 Section 6.07 Rights of Holders of Notes to Receive Payment. 

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

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

Section 6.09 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 

The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the
claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer (or any
other obligor upon the Notes), its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any custodian in any such judicial
proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be
paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any 

  
 97 

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

Section 6.10 Priorities. 

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

First: to the Trustee, its agents and attorneys for amounts due under Section 7.07, including payment of all
compensation, expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and the costs and expenses of collection; 

Second: to Holders of the Notes for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for principal, premium, if any, and interest,
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

TRUSTEE 
 Section 7.01
Duties of Trustee. 
 (a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and is actually known to the Trustee,
the Trustee will exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise, as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs. 

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

  
 98 

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

(2) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the
correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture. However, the Trustee will examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not
they conform to the requirements of this Indenture. 
 (c) The Trustee may not be relieved from liabilities for its own negligent action, its
own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that: 
 (1) this paragraph does not limit the effect of

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

 (e) No
provision of this Indenture will require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or incur any liability. The Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights and powers under this Indenture at the request or direction of any

(f) The Trustee will not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the Issuer. Money
held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
 Section 7.02 Rights of
Trustee.

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

of any of the Holders unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity or security satisfactory to it against the losses, liabilities and expenses that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction. In no
event shall the Trustee be liable to any Person for special, punitive, indirect, consequential or incidental loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, lost profits) for any action it takes or omits to take, even if the
Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage. 
 (g) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of a Default or an
Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge of such Default or Event of Default. 
 (h) Subject to
Section 7.01(b)(2), the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, 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. 

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

(j) The permissive rights of the Trustee enumerated herein shall not be construed as duties. 

(k) The recitals contained herein and in the Notes, except for the Trustee’s certificates of authentication, shall be taken as the
statements of the Issuer and the Guarantors, as applicable, and shall not be taken as the statements of the Trustee, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or
sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Notes, except that the Trustee represents that it is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Indenture, authenticate the Notes and perform its obligations hereunder. 

  
 100 

 (l) The Trustee shall have no duty to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or
observance of any of the terms of this Indenture or any other documents or agreements entered into in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby by the Issuer or any other party hereto. 

Section 7.03 Individual Rights of Trustee. 

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

The Trustee will not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes, it shall not
be accountable for the Issuer’s use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Issuer or upon the Issuer’s direction under any provision of this Indenture, it will not be responsible for the use or application of any money
received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee, and it will not be responsible for any statement or recital herein or any statement in the Notes or any other document in connection with the sale of the Notes or pursuant to this Indenture other
than its certificate of authentication. 
 Section 7.05 Notice of Defaults. 

If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if it is actually known to the Trustee, the Trustee will mail to Holders of the
Notes a notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after the Trustee gains knowledge of any such Default or Event of Default unless such Default or Event of Default shall have been cured or waived before the giving of such notice.
Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on, any Note, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that
withholding the notice is in the interests of the Holders of the Notes. 
 Section 7.06 Reports by Trustee to
Holders of the Notes. 
 (a) Within 60 days after each December 1 beginning with December 1, 2020,
and for so long as Notes remain outstanding, the Trustee will mail to the Holders of the Notes a brief report dated as of such reporting date that complies with TIA §313(a) (but if no event described in TIA §313(a) has occurred within the
twelve months preceding the reporting date, no report need be transmitted). The Trustee also will comply with TIA §313(b)(2). The Trustee will also transmit by mail all reports as required by TIA §313(c). 

  
 101 

 (b) A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to the Holders of the Notes will be
mailed by the Trustee to the Issuer and filed by the Trustee with the SEC and each stock exchange on which the Notes are listed in accordance with TIA §313(d). The Issuer will promptly notify the Trustee when the Notes are listed on any stock
exchange. 
 Section 7.07 Compensation and Indemnity. 

(a) The Issuer will pay to the Trustee (in its capacity as Trustee, and, to the extent it has been appointed as such, as Paying Agent and
Registrar) from time to time reasonable compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder in accordance with a written schedule provided to the Issuer by the Trustee. The Trustee’s compensation will not be limited by any
law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuer will reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for all reasonable disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such
expenses will include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel. 
 (b) The Issuer and
the Guarantors will indemnify the Trustee against any and all losses, liabilities or expenses incurred by it arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Indenture, including the costs and expenses
of enforcing this Indenture against the Issuer and the Guarantors (including this Section 7.07) and defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Issuer, the Guarantors, any Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection
with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, except to the extent any such loss, liability or expense may be attributable to its negligence or bad faith. The Trustee will notify the Issuer promptly of any claim for
which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Issuer will not relieve the Issuer or any of the Guarantors of their obligations hereunder. The Issuer or such Guarantor will defend the claim and the Trustee will cooperate in the
defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Issuer will pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. Neither the Issuer nor any Guarantor need pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent will not be
unreasonably withheld. 
 (c) The obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantors under this Section 7.07 will survive the satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture. 
 (d) To secure the Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ payment obligations in this Section 7.07, the
Trustee will have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on, particular Notes. Such Lien will survive the satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture. 
 (e) When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in
Section 6.01(i) or (j) occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law. 

(f) The Trustee will comply with the provisions of TIA §313(b)(2) to the extent applicable. 

  
 102 

 Section 7.08 Replacement of Trustee. 

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

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

(4) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting. 

(c) If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Issuer will promptly appoint a
successor Trustee. Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may appoint a successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the
Issuer. 
 (d) If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring
Trustee, the Issuer, or the Holders of at least 10% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 

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

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

  
 103 

 Section 7.09 Successor Trustee by Merger, etc. 

If the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another
corporation, the successor corporation without any further act will be the successor Trustee. 
 Section 7.10 Eligibility;
Disqualification. 
 There will at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of
the United States of America or of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities and that has a combined capital and surplus of
at least $100.0 million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition.

 Section 7.11

ARTICLE 8 
 LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND
COVENANT DEFEASANCE 
 Section 8.01 Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 

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

Section 8.02 Legal Defeasance and Discharge. 

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

  
 104 

 (a) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive payments in respect of the
principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on, such Notes when such payments are due from the trust referred to in Section 8.04; 

(b) the Issuer’s obligations with respect to such Notes under Article 2 and Section 4.02; 

(c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and the Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ obligations in
connection therewith; and 
 (d) this Article 8. 

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

Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Issuer and each of the
Guarantors will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, be released from each of their respective obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 3.09, 4.03, 4.04 4.05, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12,
4.13, 4.14, 4.15, 4.16 and 4.17 and clause (4) of Section 5.01(a) with respect to all the outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant
Defeasance”), and the Notes will thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants,
but will continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes will not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes to the extent permitted by GAAP). For this purpose, Covenant
Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes and Guarantees, the Issuer and the Guarantors may omit to comply with and will have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether
directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply will not constitute a
Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes and Guarantees will be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 of
the option applicable to this Section 8.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, Sections 6.01(c), (d), (f), (g), (h) and (k) will not constitute Events of Default. 

Section 8.04 Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. 

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

(a) the Issuer must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of independent public
accountants, to pay the principal of, premium on, if any, and interest on, the outstanding Notes on the stated date for payment thereof or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Issuer must specify whether the Notes are being
defeased to such stated date for payment or to a particular redemption date;

 (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 federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel will confirm that, the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income
tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred; 

(c) in the case of an election under Section 8.03, the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to
the Trustee confirming that the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the
same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred; 
 (d) no Default or Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit (and any similar concurrent deposit relating to other Indebtedness), and
the granting of Liens to secure such borrowings, all or a portion of which are to be applied to such deposit); 
 (e) such Legal Defeasance
or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture and the agreements governing any other Indebtedness being defeased, discharged or
replaced) to which the Issuer or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Issuer or any Guarantor is bound; 
 (f) the Issuer must deliver to
the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuer with the intent of preferring the Holders of the Notes over the other creditors of the Issuer with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or
defrauding any creditors of the Issuer or others; and 
 (g) the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an
Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, have been complied with. 

  
 106 

 Section 8.05 Deposited Money and Government Securities to be Held in Trust;
Other Miscellaneous Provisions. 
 Subject to Section 8.06, all money and non-callable
Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.04 in respect of the
outstanding Notes will be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuer acting as Paying Agent) as the
Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 

The Issuer will pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or non-callable Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of
the Holders of the outstanding Notes. 
 Notwithstanding anything in this Article 8 to the contrary, the Trustee will deliver or pay to the
Issuer from time to time upon the request of the Issuer any money or non-callable Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 8.04 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of
independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(a)), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to
effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 
 Section 8.06 Repayment to Issuer. 

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Issuer, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium on,
if any, or interest on, any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium, if any, and interest, has become due and payable shall be paid to the Issuer on its request or (if then held by the Issuer) will be discharged from
such trust; and the Holder of such Note will thereafter be permitted to look only to the Issuer for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Issuer as trustee
thereof, will thereupon cease; provided, however, that, if any Definitive Note is then outstanding, the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Issuer cause to be published
once, in the New York Times and The Wall Street Journal (national edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which will not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification or
publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Issuer. 
 Section 8.07 Reinstatement.

 If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any U.S. dollars or non-callable Government
Securities in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Issuer’s and the
Guarantors’ obligations under this Indenture 

  
 107 

 
and the Notes and the Guarantees will be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted
to apply all such money or Government Securities in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the Issuer make any payment of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on, any Note following
the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer will be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or Government Securities held by the Trustee or Paying Agent. 

ARTICLE 9

legal rights under this Indenture of any Holder; 
 (e) to comply with requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the

Section 9.02 With Consent of Holders of Notes. 

Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture

payment required by Section 3.09, 4.10 or 4.15 or (ii) a rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes and a waiver of the payment default that resulted
from such acceleration); 
 (e) make any Note payable in money other than that stated in the Notes; 

(f) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights of Holders of the Notes to receive
payments of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on, the Notes (other than a payment required by Section 3.09, 4.10 or 4.15); 

(g) waive a redemption or repurchase payment with respect to any Note (other than a payment required by Section 3.09, 4.10 or 4.15); 

  
 109 

 (h) release any Guarantor from any of its obligations under its Guarantee or this Indenture,
except in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; or 
 (i) make any change in the preceding amendment, supplement and waiver
provisions. 
 The consent of the Holders is not necessary under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed
amendment, supplement or waiver. It is sufficient if such consent approves the substance of the proposed amendment, supplement or waiver. After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Indenture requiring the approval of the Holders becomes
effective, the Issuer will mail to the Holders a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. However, the failure to give such notice, or any defect in the notice, will not impair or affect the validity of the amendment,
supplement or waiver. 
 Section 9.03 Revocation and Effect of Consents. 

Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a
Note and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder of a
Note may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms
and thereafter binds every Holder unless it makes a change described in any of clauses (a) through (i) of the first paragraph of Section 9.02, in which case, the amendment, supplement or waiver shall bind only each Holder of a Note who has
consented to such amendment, supplement or waiver and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same indebtedness as the consenting Holder’s Note. 

Section 9.04 Notation on or Exchange of Notes. 

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

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

 Section 9.05 Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc. 

The Trustee will sign any amended or supplemental indenture authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment or supplement does not
adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture, the Trustee will be entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.01) will be fully protected in relying upon, in
addition to the documents required by Section 12.04, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. 

  
 110 

 Section 9.06 Effect of Supplemental Indentures. 

Upon the execution of any amended or supplemental indenture under this Article 9, this Indenture shall be modified in accordance therewith, and
such amended or supplemental indenture shall form a part of this Indenture for all purposes; and every Holder of Notes theretofore or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder shall be bound thereby. 

ARTICLE 10 
 GUARANTEES 

Section 10.01 Guarantee. 

(a) Subject to this Article 10, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally Guarantees to each Holder of a Note
authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Issuer hereunder or thereunder, that: 

(1) the principal of, premium on, if any, and interest on, the Notes will be promptly paid in full when due, whether at Stated
Maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of, premium on, if any, and interest on, the Notes, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Issuer to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder
will be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and 
 (2) in case of any
extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same will be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at Stated Maturity, by
acceleration or otherwise. 
 Failing payment when due of any amount so Guaranteed or any performance so Guaranteed for whatever reason, the
Guarantors will be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a Guarantee of payment and not a Guarantee of collection. 

(b) The Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder are unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability
of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuer, any action to enforce
the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of
insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenant that this Guarantee will not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations
contained in the Notes and this Indenture. 
 (c) If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Issuer,
the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Issuer or the Guarantors, any amount paid by any of them to the Trustee or such Holder, this Guarantee, to the extent theretofore
discharged, will be reinstated in full force and effect. 

  
 111 

 (d) Each Guarantor agrees that it will not be entitled to any right of subrogation in
relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations Guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations Guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on
the other hand, (1) the maturity of the obligations Guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 for the purposes of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in
respect of the obligations Guaranteed hereby, and (2) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) will forthwith become due and payable by the
Guarantors for the purpose of this Guarantee. The Guarantors will have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the
Holders under the Guarantee. 
 Section 10.02 Limitation on Guarantor Liability. 

Each Guarantor and, by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder hereby confirm that it is the intention of all such parties that the Guarantee of
such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any
Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor will be limited to the maximum amount that will, after giving effect to such maximum amount
and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in
respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article 10, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. Until such time as the Notes are paid in full, each
Guarantor hereby waives all rights of subrogation or contribution, whether arising by contract or operation of law (including any such right arising under federal Bankruptcy Law) or otherwise by reason of any payment by it pursuant to the provisions
of this Article 10. 
 Section 10.03 Guarantee Evidenced by Indenture. 

The Guarantee of any Guarantor shall be evidenced solely by its execution and delivery of this Indenture (or, in the case of any Guarantor that
is not party to this Indenture on the date hereof, a supplemental indenture hereto) and not by an endorsement on, or attachment to, any Note or any Guarantee or notation thereof. 

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 will remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any
failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Guarantee. 
 The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof
hereunder, will constitute due delivery of the Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors. 

  
 112 

 Section 10.04 Guarantors May Consolidate, etc., on Certain Terms. 

A Guarantor may not sell or otherwise dispose of, in one or a series of related transactions, all or substantially all of its properties or
assets to, or consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving Person) another Person, other than the Issuer or another Guarantor, unless: 

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

(b) either: 
 (1)
the Person acquiring the properties or assets in any such sale or other disposition or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Guarantor) unconditionally assumes all the obligations of that Guarantor
under its Guarantee and this Indenture pursuant to a supplemental indenture or other agreement in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee; or 

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

In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or other disposition and upon the assumption by the successor Person, by supplemental
indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory in form to the Trustee, of the Guarantee of the Guarantor and the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this Indenture to be performed by the
Guarantor, such successor Person will succeed to and be substituted for the Guarantor with the same effect as if it had been named herein as a Guarantor. 

Section 10.05 Releases. 

Notwithstanding Section 10.04 above, the Guarantee of a Guarantor shall be released, and such Guarantor deemed automatically and
unconditionally released and discharged from all of its obligations under this Indenture, in each case without any further action on the part of the Trustee or any Holder of the Notes: 

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

(b) in connection with any sale or other disposition of Capital Stock of that Guarantor to a Person that is not (either before or after giving
effect to such transaction) the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer, if the sale or other disposition does not violate Section 4.10 and such Guarantor ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer as a result of the sale or
other disposition; 
 (c) if the Issuer designates such Guarantor to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the terms of this
Indenture; 

  
 113 

 (d) upon Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance in accordance with Article 8 or
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture in accordance with Article 11; 
 (e) upon the liquidation or dissolution of such Guarantor
provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred that is continuing; 
 (f) upon such Guarantor consolidating with, merging into
or transferring all of its properties or assets to the Issuer or another Guarantor, and as a result of, or in connection with, such transaction such Guarantor dissolving or otherwise ceasing to exist; or 

(g) at such time as such Guarantor ceases to guarantee or otherwise be an obligor with respect to any other Indebtedness of the Issuer or any
other Guarantor in excess of the De Minimis Guaranteed Amount; provided no Event of Default has occurred that is continuing. 
 Any
Guarantor not released from its obligations under its Guarantee as provided in this Section 10.05 will remain liable for the full amount of principal of, premium on, if any, and interest on the Notes and for the other obligations of such
Guarantor under this Indenture as provided in this Article 10. 
 ARTICLE 11 

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE 

Section 11.01 Satisfaction and Discharge. 

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

 (a) either: 

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

(2) all Notes that have not been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable or will become due and
payable within one year by reason of the mailing of a notice of redemption or otherwise and the Issuer or any Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the
Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge
the entire Indebtedness on the Notes not delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium, if any, and interest to the date of Stated Maturity or redemption (provided that with respect to any redemption with a redemption price
requiring calculation of the Applicable Premium, the initial deposit may be based on a good faith estimate of the redemption price provided the Issuer agrees to fund any shortfall in such amount promptly upon calculation of such redemption price);

  
 114 

 (b) the Issuer has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable by the Issuer under this
Indenture; and 
 (c) if applicable, the Issuer has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee to apply the deposited money toward the
payment of the Notes at Stated Maturity or on the redemption date, as the case may be. 
 In addition, the Issuer must deliver an
Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied. 

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money or Government Securities have been deposited with the Trustee
pursuant to subclause (2) of clause (a) of this Section 11.01, the provisions of Sections 11.02 and 8.06 will survive. In addition, nothing in this Section 11.01 will be deemed to discharge those provisions of Section 7.07,
that, by their terms, survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 
 Section 11.02 Application of Trust Money.

 Subject to the provisions of Section 8.06, all money or Government Securities deposited with the Trustee pursuant to
Section 11.01 shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuer acting as its own Paying Agent) as the
Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal, premium, if any, and interest for whose payment such money or Government Securities have been deposited with the Trustee; but such money or Government Securities need not be
segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
 If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or
Government Securities in accordance with Section 11.01 by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the
Issuer’s and any Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 11.01; provided that if the Issuer has made any payment of
principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on, any Notes because of the reinstatement of their obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or Government Securities
held by the Trustee or Paying Agent. 
 Notwithstanding the above, the Trustee shall pay to the Issuer from time to time upon its request
any money or Government Securities held by it as provided in this Section 11.02 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification delivered to the Trustee, are in excess
of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect satisfaction and discharge under this Article 11. 

  
 115 

 Any money or Government Securities deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then
held by the Issuer, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium or interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, and premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Issuer on
its request or (if then held by the Issuer) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter look only to the Issuer for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such
trust money, and all liability of the Issuer as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may, at the expense of the Issuer, cause to be
published once, in The New York Times or The Wall Street Journal (national edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such
notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining shall be repaid to the Issuer. 
 ARTICLE 12 

MISCELLANEOUS 
 Section 12.01
Trust Indenture Act Controls. 
 If any provision of this Indenture limits, qualifies or conflicts with the duties imposed by TIA
§318(c), the imposed duties will control. If any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with a provision of the TIA which is required to be a part of and govern this Indenture, such required provision of the TIA shall control. If any
provision of this Indenture modifies or excludes any provision of the TIA that may be so modified or excluded, the provision of the TIA shall be deemed to apply to this Indenture as so modified or shall be excluded, as the case may be. 

Section 12.02 Notices. 

Any notice or communication by the Issuer, any Guarantor or the Trustee to the others is duly given if in writing in the English language and
delivered in Person or by first class mail (registered or certified, return receipt requested), electronic image scan, facsimile transmission or overnight air courier guaranteeing next day delivery, to the others’ address:

 116 

 The Issuer, any Guarantor or the Trustee, by notice to the others, may designate additional
or different addresses for subsequent notices or communications. Notices given by publication will be deemed given on the first date on which publication is made. 

All notices and communications (other than those sent to Holders) will be deemed to have been duly given: at the time delivered by hand, if
personally delivered; five Business Days after being deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, if mailed; when receipt acknowledged, if transmitted by electronic image scan or facsimile; and the next Business Day after timely delivery to the courier,
if sent by overnight air courier guaranteeing next day delivery. 
 Any notice or communication to a Holder will be mailed by first class
mail, certified or registered, return receipt requested, or by overnight air courier guaranteeing next day delivery, to its address shown on the register kept by the Registrar. Any notice or communication will also be so mailed to any Person
described in TIA §313(c), to the extent required by the TIA. Failure to mail a notice or communication to a Holder or any defect in it will not affect its sufficiency with respect to other Holders. 

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

Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice,
either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by the Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in
reliance upon such waiver. 
 Where this Indenture provides for notice of any event to a Holder of a Global Note, such notice shall be
sufficiently given if given to the Depositary for such Note (or its designee), pursuant to its Applicable Procedures, not later than the latest date (if any), and not earlier than the earliest date (if any), prescribed for the giving of such notice.

 Section 12.03 Communication by Holders of Notes with Other Holders of Notes. 

Holders may communicate pursuant to TIA §312(b) with other Holders with respect to their rights under this Indenture or the Notes. The
Issuer, the Trustee, the Registrar and anyone else shall have the protection of TIA §312(c). 
 Section 12.04 Certificate and
Opinion as to Conditions Precedent. 
 Upon any request or application by the Issuer to the Trustee to take any action under this
Indenture, the Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee: 

  
 117 

 (a) an Officers’ Certificate in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Trustee (which must include the statements set forth in Section 12.05) stating that, in the opinion of the signers, all conditions precedent and covenants, if any, provided for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been
satisfied; and 
 (b) an Opinion of Counsel in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee (which must include the statements
set forth in Section 12.05) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all such conditions precedent and covenants have been satisfied. 

Section 12.05 Statements Required in Certificate or Opinion. 

Each certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture (other than a certificate
provided pursuant to TIA §314(a)(4)) must comply with the provisions of TIA §314(e) and must include: 
 (a) a statement that the
person making such certificate or opinion has read such covenant or condition; 
 (b) a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the
examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such certificate or opinion are based; 
 (c) a statement
that, in the opinion of such person, he or she has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable him or her to express an informed opinion as to whether or not such covenant or condition has been satisfied; and 

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

In any case where several matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that
all such matters be certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one or more other
such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents. 
 Any
certificate or opinion of an Officer with respect to any Person may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, counsel, unless such Officer knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care
should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which his certificate or opinion is based are erroneous. Any such certificate or opinion of, or representation by, counsel may be based, insofar as it
relates to factual matters, upon certificates of public officials or upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an Officer or Officers with respect to any Person stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in
the possession of such Person (or, if such Person is a limited partnership, such Person’s general partner) unless such counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with
respect to such matters are erroneous. 

  
 118 

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

Section 12.06 Rules by Trustee and Agents. 

The Trustee may make reasonable rules for action by or at a meeting of Holders. The Registrar or Paying Agent may make reasonable rules and set
reasonable requirements for its functions. 
 Section 12.07 No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees
and Members. 
 No past, present or future director, officer, partner, employee, incorporator, member, manager, unitholder or other owner
of the Capital Stock of the Issuer or any Guarantor, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer or the Guarantors under the Notes, this Indenture or the Guarantees or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of,
such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. 

Section 12.08 Governing Law. 

THE INDENTURE, THE NOTES AND THE GUARANTEES WILL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 

Section 12.09 No Adverse Interpretation of Other Agreements. 

This Indenture may not be used to interpret any other indenture, loan or debt agreement of the Issuer or its Subsidiaries or of any other
Person. Any such indenture, loan or debt agreement may not be used to interpret this Indenture. 
 Section 12.10 Successors.

 All agreements of the Issuer in this Indenture and the Notes will bind its successors. All agreements of the Trustee in this Indenture
will bind its successors. All agreements of each Guarantor in this Indenture will bind its successors, except as otherwise provided in Section 10.05. 

Section 12.11 Severability. 

In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Notes is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the
remaining provisions will not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 
 Section 12.12 Counterpart Originals. 

The parties may sign any number of copies of this Indenture, and each party hereto may sign any number of separate copies of this Indenture.
Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together represent the same agreement. The exchange of copies of this Indenture and of signature pages by facsimile or PDF transmission shall constitute effective execution and delivery of this
Indenture as to the parties hereto and may be used in lieu of the original Indenture for all purposes. Signatures of the parties hereto transmitted by facsimile or PDF shall be deemed to be their original signatures for all purposes. 

  
 119 

 Section 12.13 Table of Contents, Headings, etc. 

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

Section 12.14 Payment Date Other Than a Business Day. 

If any payment with respect to any principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on, any Note is due on a day which is not a Business Day, then
the payment need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such date, and no interest will accrue for the intervening period. 

Section 12.15 Action by Holders. 

(a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given, made or
taken by the Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by agents duly appointed in writing, and may be given, made or taken in connection with a purchase
of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, outstanding Notes; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly
required, to the Issuer. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any
such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Issuer if made in the manner provided in this Section 12.15. 

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

  
 120 

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

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 12.15 or elsewhere in this Indenture, the principal amount and
serial numbers of Notes held by any Holder, and the date of holding the same, shall be proved by the register of the Notes maintained by the Registrar as provided in Section 2.03. 

(d) If the Issuer shall solicit from the Holders of the Notes any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other
Act, the Issuer may, at its option, by or pursuant to a resolution of its Board of Directors, fix in advance a record date for the determination of the Holders entitled to give, make or take such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or other Act, but the Issuer shall have no obligation to do so. Notwithstanding TIA §316(c), such record date shall be the record date specified in or pursuant to such resolution, which shall be a date not earlier than the date
30 days prior to the first solicitation of the Holders generally in connection therewith or the date of the most recent list of the Holders forwarded to the Trustee prior to such solicitation pursuant to Section 2.05 and not later than the date
such solicitation is completed. If such a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the second sentence of Section 9.04, any instrument embodying and evidencing such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other
Act may be executed before or after such record date, but only the Holders of record at the close of business on such record date (whether or not such Persons were Holders before, or continue to be Holders after, such record date) shall be deemed to
be Holders for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of the then outstanding Notes have given, made or taken such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and (except to the
extent otherwise required by the TIA) for that purpose the then outstanding Notes shall be computed as of such record date; provided that no such Act by the Holders of record on any record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become
effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later than eleven months after such record date. 
 (e) Subject to
Section 9.04, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act of the Holder of any Note shall bind every future Holder of the same Note and the Holder of every Note issued upon the registration or transfer
thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the Issuer in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Note. 

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

  
 121 

 (g) For purposes of this Indenture, any action by the Holders which may be taken in writing
may be taken by electronic means or as otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. 
 Section 12.16 Benefit of
Indenture. 
 Nothing in this Indenture or in the Notes, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the
parties hereto, any Paying Agent, any Registrar and their successors hereunder, and the Holders, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture. 

Section 12.17 Language of Notices, Etc. 

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

provisions of the Indenture] 
 Capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below
unless otherwise indicated. 
 (1) INTEREST. Range Resources Corporation, a Delaware
corporation (the “Issuer”), promises to pay or cause to be paid interest on the principal amount of this Note at a rate of 9.250% per annum. The Issuer will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on February 1 and August 1
of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an “Interest Payment Date”); provided that the first Interest Payment Date shall be August 1, 2020. Interest on the Notes
will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance; provided that, if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated
between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date. The Issuer will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any
proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at a rate that is equal to the then applicable interest rate on the Notes to the extent lawful; the Issuer will pay interest (including
post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace period), from time to time on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful. [All references in the
Indenture or this Note to “interest” shall be deemed to include Additional Interest, if any, unless the context requires otherwise. The Issuer will pay all Additional Interest, if any, in the same manner on the dates and in the amounts set
forth in the applicable Registration Rights Agreement.]1 
 Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. 

(2) METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Issuer will pay interest on the
Notes (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on the January 15 and July 15 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such record date
and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. The Notes will be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and interest, at the office or agency of the Issuer
maintained for such purpose within the City and State of New York, or, at the option of the Issuer, payment of interest, may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders; provided that payment
by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of, and interest and premium, if any, on, all Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which will have provided wire transfer instructions to the
Issuer or the Paying Agent. Such payment will be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

 (3) PAYING AGENT AND
REGISTRAR. Initially, U.S. Bank National Association, the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Issuer may change the Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The
Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar. 
 (4)
INDENTURE. The Issuer issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of January 24, 2020 (the “Indenture”) among the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes include
those stated in the Indenture and, those made part of the Indenture by reference to the TIA. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and such Act for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision
of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. The Notes are unsecured obligations of the Issuer. The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of
Notes that may be issued thereunder. 
 (5) OPTIONAL REDEMPTION. 

(a) At any time prior to February 1, 2022, the Issuer may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate
principal amount of the Notes (including, without limitation, any Additional Notes) in an amount not greater than the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings by the Issuer, upon notice as provided in the Indenture, at a redemption price
equal to 109.250% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption (subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest
Payment Date); provided that (1) at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes originally issued on the date of the Indenture (excluding Notes held by the Issuer and its Subsidiaries) remains outstanding immediately after the
occurrence of such redemption; and (2) the redemption occurs within 180 days of the date of the closing of such Equity Offering. 

(b) At any time prior to February 1, 2022, the Issuer may on any one or more occasions redeem all or a part of the Notes, upon
notice as provided in the Indenture, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption, subject to the rights of Holders on
the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date. 
 (c) The Issuer may redeem all (but
not a portion of) the Notes when permitted by, and pursuant to the conditions in, Section 4.15(f) of the Indenture. 

(d) Except pursuant to the preceding paragraphs, the Notes will not be redeemable at the Issuer’s option prior to February
1, 2022. 

  
 A-3 

 (e) On and after February 1, 2022, the Issuer may on any one or more
occasions redeem all or a part of the Notes, upon notice as provided in the Indenture, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes redeemed, to the applicable
redemption date, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on February 1 of the years indicated below:

	 2024
	  	 	102.313	% 
	 2025 and thereafter
	  	 	100.000	% 

 (6) MANDATORY REDEMPTION. The
Issuer is not required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes. 
 (7)
REPURCHASE AT THE OPTION OF HOLDER. 

(a) If there is a Change of Control Triggering Event, the Issuer will be required to make a cash tender offer (a
“Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of each Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate
principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of purchase, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date (the “Change of Control
Payment”). Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, the Issuer will mail a notice to each Holder setting forth the procedures governing the Change of Control Offer as required by the Indenture. 

(b) If the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer consummates any Asset Sales, within five days of each date on which
the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $50.0 million, the Issuer will make an Asset Sale Offer to all Holders of Notes and all holders of other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes containing provisions similar to
those set forth in the Indenture with respect to offers to purchase, prepay or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets to purchase, prepay or redeem, on a pro rata basis (based on principal amounts of Notes and pari passu
Indebtedness (or, in the case of pari passu Indebtedness issued with significant original issue discount, based on the accreted value thereof) tendered), the maximum principal amount of Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness
(plus all accrued interest on the Indebtedness and the amount of all fees and expenses, including premiums, incurred in connection therewith) that may be purchased, prepaid or redeemed out of the Excess Proceeds. The offer price in any Asset Sale
Offer will be equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase, prepayment or redemption, subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant
Interest Payment Date, and will be payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary may use those Excess Proceeds for any

  
 A-4 

 
purpose not otherwise prohibited by the Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes tendered in such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds allocated to the purchase of
Notes, the Trustee will select the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis (except as provided in Section 4.10 of the Indenture with respect to Global Notes), based on the amounts tendered. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the
amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero. Holders of Definitive Notes that are the subject of an offer to purchase will receive an Asset Sale Offer from the Issuer prior to any related purchase date and may elect to have such Notes purchased
by completing the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to the Notes. 
 (8)
NOTICE OF REDEMPTION. At least 15 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, the Issuer will mail or cause to be mailed, by first class mail (or sent electronically if
DTC is the recipient), a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be given more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection
with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture pursuant to Article 8 or 11 thereof. Notes and portions of Notes selected will be in amounts of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. 

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

(10) PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. The registered Holder of a Note
may be treated as the owner of it for all purposes. Only registered Holders have rights under the Indenture. 
 (11)
AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture, the Notes or the Guarantees may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the
Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes including Additional Notes, if any, voting as a single class, and any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or the
Notes or the Guarantees may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes voting as a single class. Without the consent of any Holder of Notes, the Indenture, the Notes or the
Guarantees may be amended or supplemented as provided in the Indenture.

REMEDIES. In the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Issuer as specified in the Indenture, any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer that is a
Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, the outstanding principal of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, all outstanding Notes will become

principal of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, all outstanding Notes to be due and payable immediately. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on it. The Holders
of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of all the Holders, rescind an acceleration or waive an existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under the Indenture,
if the rescission would not conflict with a judgment or decree, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on, the Notes or as otherwise specified in the Indenture. 

(13) TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH ISSUER. The
Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Issuer or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee.

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

Re: 9.25% Senior Notes due 2026 

Reference is hereby made to the Indenture, dated as of January 24, 2020 (the “Indenture”), among Range Resources
Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), the Guarantors party thereto and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Indenture.

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

1. ☐ Check if Transferee will take delivery of a beneficial interest in the 144A Global Note or a Restricted Definitive Note
pursuant to Rule 144A. The Transfer is being effected pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and, accordingly, the Transferor hereby further
certifies that the beneficial interest or Definitive Note is being transferred to a Person that the Transferor reasonably believes is purchasing the beneficial interest or Definitive Note for its own account, or for one or more accounts with respect
to which such Person exercises sole investment discretion, and such Person and each such account is a “qualified institutional buyer” within the meaning of Rule 144A in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144A, and such Transfer
is in compliance with any applicable blue sky securities laws of any state of the United States. Upon consummation of the proposed Transfer in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, the transferred beneficial interest or Definitive Note will be
subject to the restrictions on transfer enumerated in the Private Placement Legend printed on the 144A Global Note and/or the Restricted Definitive Note and in the Indenture and the Securities Act. 

  
 B-1 

 2. ☐ Check if Transferee will take delivery of a beneficial interest in the
Regulation S Global Note or a Restricted Definitive Note pursuant to Regulation S. The Transfer is being effected pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 903 or Rule 904 under the Securities Act and, accordingly, the Transferor hereby
further certifies that (i) the Transfer is not being made to a Person in the United States and (x) at the time the buy order was originated, the Transferee was outside the United States or such Transferor and any Person acting on its
behalf reasonably believed and believes that the Transferee was outside the United States or (y) the transaction was executed in, on or through the facilities of a designated offshore securities market and neither such Transferor nor any Person
