 Exhibit 4.1 
 AMERICAN MEDIA OPERATIONS, INC. 
 $14,544,000 
 10 1/4% Series B Senior Subordinated Notes due 2009 
 EXCHANGE AND REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT 

 December 13, 2007 
 To the Holders of the
Additional Securities (as defined herein) 
 Ladies and Gentlemen: 
 American Media Operations, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), proposes
to issue, for each $1,000 outstanding principal amount of the Company’s 10 1/4% Series B Senior Subordinated Notes due 2009
(the “Existing Securities”) held by any holder of Existing Securities, $36.36 principal amount of 10 1/4% Series
B Senior Subordinated Notes due 2009 (the “Additional Securities” and, together with the Existing Securities, the “Securities”). The Securities were issued pursuant to an Indenture dated as of February 14, 2002
(as supplemented, the “Indenture”), among the Company, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries as guarantors (the “Note Guarantors”) and HSBC Bank USA, National Association (as successor to JPMorgan Chase Bank,
N.A.), as trustee (the “Trustee”). The Company issued $400,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Existing Securities and $14,544,000 aggregate principal amount of Additional Securities pursuant to the Indenture.

 In connection with the issuance of the Additional Securities, the Company and the Note Guarantors agree with the holders of
the Securities, the Exchange Securities (as defined herein) and the Private Exchange Securities (as defined herein) (collectively, the “Holders”), as follows: 
 1. Registered Exchange Offer. The Company and the Note Guarantors shall (a) prepare and, not later than 105 days following the date of
original issuance of the Additional Securities (the “Issue Date”), file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a registration statement (the “Exchange Offer Registration
Statement”) on an appropriate form under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) with respect to a proposed offer to the Holders of the Additional Securities (the “Registered Exchange
Offer”) to issue and deliver to such Holders, in exchange for the Additional Securities, a like aggregate principal amount of debt securities of the Company (the “Exchange Securities”) that are identical in all material
respects to the Additional Securities, except for the transfer restrictions relating to the Additional Securities, (b) use their reasonable best efforts to cause the Exchange Offer Registration Statement to become effective under the Securities
Act no later than 165 days after the Issue Date and the Registered Exchange Offer to be consummated no later than 195 days after the Issue Date and (c) keep the Exchange Offer Registration Statement effective for not less than 20 business days
(or longer, if required by applicable law) after the date on 

 
which notice of the Registered Exchange Offer is mailed to the Holders (such period being called the “Exchange Offer Registration Period”).
The Exchange Securities will be issued under the Indenture or an indenture (the “Exchange Securities Indenture”) among the Company, the Note Guarantors and the Trustee or such other bank or trust company that is reasonably
satisfactory to the Company, as trustee (the “Exchange Securities Trustee”), such indenture to be identical in all material respects to the Indenture, except for the transfer restrictions relating to the Additional Securities (as
described above). 
 Upon the effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, the Company shall promptly commence the Registered
Exchange Offer, it being the objective of such Registered Exchange Offer to enable each Holder electing to exchange Additional Securities for Exchange Securities (assuming that such Holder (a) is not an affiliate of the Company or an Exchanging
Dealer (as defined herein) not complying with the requirements of the next sentence, (b) acquires the Exchange Securities in the ordinary course of business of such Holder and (c) has no arrangements or understandings with any person to
participate in the distribution of the Exchange Securities) to trade such Exchange Securities from and after their receipt without any limitations or restrictions under the Securities Act and without material restrictions under the securities laws
of the several states of the United States. The Company, the Note Guarantors and each Exchanging Dealer acknowledge that, pursuant to current interpretations by the Commission’s staff of Section 5 of the Securities Act, each Holder that is
a broker-dealer electing to exchange Additional Securities acquired for its own account as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, for Exchange Securities (an “Exchanging Dealer”), is required to deliver a
prospectus containing substantially the information set forth in Annex A hereto on the cover, in Annex B hereto in the “Exchange Offer Procedures” section and the “Purpose of the Exchange Offer” section and in Annex
C hereto in the “Plan of Distribution” section of such prospectus in connection with a sale of any such Exchange Securities received by such Exchanging Dealer pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer. 
 If, prior to the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer, any Holder holds any Additional Securities acquired by it that have, or that are
reasonably likely to be determined to have, the status of an unsold allotment in an initial distribution, or any Holder is not entitled to participate in the Registered Exchange Offer, the Company shall, upon the request of any such Holder,
simultaneously with the delivery of the Exchange Securities in the Registered Exchange Offer, issue and deliver to any such Holder, in exchange for the Additional Securities held by such Holder (the “Private Exchange”), a like
aggregate principal amount of debt securities of the Company (the “Private Exchange Securities”) that are identical in all material respects to the Exchange Securities, except for the transfer restrictions relating to such Private
Exchange Securities. The Private Exchange Securities will be issued under the same indenture as the Exchange Securities, and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Private Exchange Securities to bear the same CUSIP number as
the Exchange Securities. 
 In connection with the Registered Exchange Offer, the Company shall: 
 (a) mail to each Holder a copy of the prospectus forming part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, together with an appropriate
letter of transmittal and related documents; 
  

 2 

 (b) keep the Registered Exchange Offer open for not less than 20 business days (or
longer, if required by applicable law) after the date on which notice of the Registered Exchange Offer is mailed to the Holders; 
 (c) utilize the services of a depositary for the Registered Exchange Offer with an address in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York; 
 (d) permit Holders to withdraw tendered Additional Securities at any time prior to the close of business, New York City time, on the last business day on which the Registered Exchange Offer shall remain open; and

 (e) otherwise comply in all respects with all laws that are applicable to the Registered Exchange Offer. 
 As soon as practicable after the close of the Registered Exchange Offer and any Private Exchange, as the case may be, the Company shall: 
 (a) accept for exchange all Additional Securities tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer and the
Private Exchange; 
 (b) deliver to the Trustee for cancellation all Additional Securities so accepted for exchange; and

 (c) cause the Trustee or the Exchange Securities Trustee, as the case may be, promptly to authenticate and deliver to each
Holder, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be, equal in principal amount to the Additional Securities of such Holder. 
 The Company and the Note Guarantors shall use their reasonable best efforts to keep the Exchange Offer Registration Statement effective and to amend and supplement the prospectus contained therein in order to permit
such prospectus to be used by all persons subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act for such period of time as such persons must comply with such requirements in order to resell the Exchange Securities; provided
that (a) in the case where such prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto must be delivered by an Exchanging Dealer, such period shall be the lesser of 180 days and the date on which all Exchanging Dealers have sold all Exchange
Securities held by them and (b) the Company shall make such prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any resale of any Exchange Securities for a period of not less than 180
days after the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer. 
 The Indenture or the Exchange Securities Indenture, as the case may be,
shall provide that the Securities, the Exchange Securities and the Private Exchange Securities shall vote and consent together on all matters as one class and that none of the Securities, the Exchange Securities or the Private Exchange Securities
will have the right to vote or consent as a separate class on any matter. 
 Interest on each Exchange Security and Private Exchange Security
issued pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer and in the Private Exchange will accrue from the last interest payment date on which interest was paid on the Securities surrendered in exchange therefor or, in the case of Additional Securities, if
no interest has been paid on the Additional Securities, from the Issue Date. 
  

 3 

 Each Holder participating in the Registered Exchange Offer shall be required to represent to the Company
that at the time of the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer (a) any Exchange Securities received by such Holder will be acquired in the ordinary course of business, (b) such Holder will have no arrangements or understanding with
any person to participate in the distribution of the Securities or the Exchange Securities within the meaning of the Securities Act and (c) such Holder is not an affiliate of the Company or, if it is such an affiliate, such Holder will comply
with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act to the extent applicable. 
 Notwithstanding any other
provisions hereof, the Company and the Note Guarantors will ensure that (a) any Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any amendment thereto and any prospectus forming part thereof and any supplement thereto complies in all material respects
with the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, (b) any Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any amendment thereto does not, when it becomes effective, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or
omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and (c) any prospectus forming part of any Exchange Offer Registration Statement, and any supplement to such prospectus, does
not, as of the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer, include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading. 
 2. Shelf Registration. If (a) because of any change in law or applicable interpretations thereof by the
Commission’s staff, the Company is not permitted to effect the Registered Exchange Offer as contemplated by Section 1 hereof, or (b) any Additional Securities validly tendered pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer are not
exchanged for Exchange Securities within 195 days after the Issue Date, or (c) any applicable law or interpretations do not permit any Holder to participate in the Registered Exchange Offer, or (d) any Holder that participates in the
Registered Exchange Offer does not receive freely transferable Exchange Securities in exchange for tendered Additional Securities, then the following provisions shall apply: 
 (a) The Company and the Note Guarantors shall use their reasonable best efforts to file as promptly as practicable (but in no event more
than 45 days after so required or requested pursuant to this Section 2) with the Commission, and thereafter shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause to be declared effective, a shelf registration statement on an appropriate form under
the Securities Act relating to the offer and sale of the Transfer Restricted Securities (as defined below) by the Holders thereof from time to time in accordance with the methods of distribution set forth in such registration statement (hereafter, a
“Shelf Registration Statement” and, together with any Exchange Offer Registration Statement, a “Registration Statement”). 
  

 4 

 (b) The Company and the Note Guarantors shall use their reasonable best efforts to keep
the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective in order to permit the prospectus forming part thereof to be used by Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities for a period ending on the earlier of (i) two years from the Issue Date or
such shorter period that will terminate when all the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement have been sold pursuant thereto and (ii) the date on which the Securities become eligible for resale without volume
restrictions pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (in any such case, such period being called the “Shelf Registration Period”). The Company and the Note Guarantors shall be deemed not to have used their reasonable best
efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement effective during the requisite period if any of them voluntarily take any action that would result in Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities covered thereby not being able to offer and sell such
Transfer Restricted Securities during that period, unless such action is required by applicable law. 
 (c) Notwithstanding
any other provisions hereof, the Company and the Note Guarantors will ensure that (i) any Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment thereto and any prospectus forming part thereof and any supplement thereto complies in all material
respects with the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, (ii) any Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment thereto (in either case, other than with respect to information included therein in reliance
upon or in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of any Holder specifically for use therein (the “Holders’ Information”)) does not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to
state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and (iii) any prospectus forming part of any Shelf Registration Statement, and any supplement to such prospectus (in either case,
other than with respect to Holders’ Information), does not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they
were made, not misleading. 
 3. Additional Interest. (a) The parties hereto agree that the Holders of Transfer Restricted
Securities will suffer damages if the Company and the Note Guarantors fail to fulfill their obligations under Section 1 or Section 2, as applicable, and that it would not be feasible to ascertain the extent of such damages. Accordingly, if
(i) the applicable Registration Statement is not filed with the Commission on or prior to 105 days after the Issue Date, (ii) the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or the Shelf Registration Statement, as the case may be, is not
declared effective within 165 days after the Issue Date (or in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement required to be filed in response to a change in law or the applicable interpretations of Commission’s staff, if later, within 60 days
after publication of the change in law or interpretation), (iii) the Registered Exchange Offer is not consummated on or prior to 195 days after the Issue Date, (iv) the Exchange Offer Registration Statement does not remain effective during
the Exchange Offer Registration Period, or (v) the Shelf Registration Statement is filed and declared effective within 165 days after the Issue Date (or in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement required to be filed in response to a change
in law or the applicable interpretations of Commission’s staff, if later, within 60 days after publication of the change in law or interpretation) but shall thereafter cease to be effective (at any time that the Company and the Note Guarantors
are obligated to maintain the effectiveness thereof) without being 

  

 5 

 
succeeded within 90 days by an additional Registration Statement filed and declared effective (each such event referred to in clauses (i) through (v), a
“Registration Default”), the Company and the Note Guarantors will be jointly and severally obligated to pay additional interest to each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities, during the period of one or more such Registration
Defaults, in an amount equal to $0.000192 per week per $1 principal amount of Transfer Restricted Securities held by such Holder until (1) the applicable Registration Statement is filed, (2) the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is
declared effective and the Registered Exchange Offer is consummated, (3) the Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective or (4) the Shelf Registration Statement again becomes effective, as the case may be. Following the cure of all
Registration Defaults, the accrual of additional interest will cease. As used herein, the term “Transfer Restricted Securities” means (i) each Additional Security until the date on which such Additional Security has been
exchanged for a freely transferable Exchange Security in the Registered Exchange Offer, (ii) each Additional Security or Private Exchange Security until the date on which it has been effectively registered under the Securities Act and disposed
of in accordance with the Shelf Registration Statement or (iii) each Additional Security or Private Exchange Security until the date on which it is distributed to the public pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or is saleable pursuant
to Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3(a), the Company shall not be required to pay additional interest to a Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities if such Holder failed to comply
with its obligations to make the representations set forth in the second to last paragraph of Section 1 or failed to provide the information required to be provided by it, if any, pursuant to Section 4(n). 
 (b) The Company shall notify the Trustee and the Paying Agent under the Indenture in writing within one business day after each date on which a
Registration Default occurs. The Company and the Note Guarantors shall pay the additional interest due on the Transfer Restricted Securities by depositing with the Paying Agent (which may not be the Company for these purposes), in trust, for the
benefit of the Holders thereof, prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the next interest payment date specified by the Indenture and the Additional Securities, sums sufficient to pay the additional interest then due. The additional interest due
shall be payable on each interest payment date specified by the Indenture and the Additional Securities to the record holder entitled to receive the interest payment to be made on such date. The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, at least five
business days before any such interest payment date, an Officers’ Certificate certifying as to the amount of additional interest due on such interest payment date, with a direction regarding payment of such additional interest to the Holders of
the Additional Notes. The Trustee shall have no responsibility with respect to the determination of the amount of any such additional interest. If the Trustee does not receive notice from the Company of an event in respect of which additional
interest is required to be paid or does not receive an Officers’ Certificate from the Company five business days before any interest payment date, the Trustee shall be entitled to assume that no additional interest is due on such interest
payment date. Each obligation to pay additional interest shall be deemed to accrue from and including the date of the applicable Registration Default. 
 (c) The additional interest provided for in this Section 3 constitutes a reasonable estimate of and is intended to constitute the sole damages that will be suffered by Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities by
reason of the failure of (i) the Shelf Registration 

  

 6 

 
Statement or the Exchange Offer Registration Statement to be filed, (ii) the Shelf Registration Statement to remain effective or (iii) the Exchange
Offer Registration Statement to be declared effective and the Registered Exchange Offer to be consummated, in each case to the extent required by this Agreement. 
 4. Registration Procedures. In connection with any Registration Statement, the following provisions shall apply: 
 (a) The Company shall (i) include the information set forth in Annex A hereto on the cover, in Annex B hereto in the “Exchange Offer Procedures” section and the “Purpose of the Exchange
Offer” section and in Annex C hereto in the “Plan of Distribution” section of the prospectus forming a part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, and include the information set forth in Annex D hereto in the Letter
of Transmittal delivered pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer; and (ii) include the information required by Items 507 or 508 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act, as applicable, in the prospectus forming a part of the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement. 
 (b) The Company shall advise each Exchanging Dealer, the Trustee and the Holders and, if requested
by any such person, confirm such advice in writing (which advice pursuant to clauses (ii)-(v) hereof shall be accompanied by an instruction to suspend the use of the prospectus until the requisite changes have been made): 
 (i) when any Registration Statement and any amendment thereto has been filed with the Commission and when such Registration Statement or
any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective; 
 (ii) of any request by the Commission for amendments or
supplements to any Registration Statement or the prospectus included therein or for additional information; 
 (iii) of the
issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose; 
 (iv) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Securities, the Exchange
Securities or the Private Exchange Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and 
 (v) of the happening of any event that requires the making of any changes in any Registration Statement or the prospectus included therein in order that the statements therein are not misleading and do not omit to
state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. 
  

 7 

 (c) The Company and the Note Guarantors will make every reasonable effort to obtain the
withdrawal at the earliest possible time of any order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement. 
 (d) The
Company will furnish to each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities included within the coverage of any Shelf Registration Statement, without charge, at least one conformed copy of such Shelf Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment
thereto, including financial statements and schedules and, if any such Holder so requests in writing, all exhibits thereto (including those, if any, incorporated by reference). 
 (e) The Company will, during the Shelf Registration Period, promptly deliver to each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities included
within the coverage of any Shelf Registration Statement, without charge, as many copies of the prospectus (including each preliminary prospectus) included in such Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto as such Holder
may reasonably request; and the Company consents to the use of such prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto by each of the selling Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities in connection with the offer and sale of the Transfer Restricted
Securities covered by such prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto. 
 (f) The Company will furnish to each
Exchanging Dealer, and to any other Holder who so requests, without charge, at least one conformed copy of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, including financial statements and schedules and, if any
Exchanging Dealer or any such Holder so requests in writing, all exhibits thereto (including those, if any, incorporated by reference). 
 (g) The Company will, during the Exchange Offer Registration Period or the Shelf Registration Period, as applicable, promptly deliver to each Exchanging Dealer and such other persons that are required to deliver a
prospectus following the Registered Exchange Offer, without charge, as many copies of the final prospectus included in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or the Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto as such
Exchanging Dealer or other persons may reasonably request; and the Company and the Note Guarantors consent to the use of such prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto by any such Exchanging Dealer or other persons, as applicable, as
aforesaid. 
 (h) Prior to the effective date of any Registration Statement, the Company and the Note Guarantors will use
their reasonable best efforts to register or qualify, or cooperate with the Holders of Additional Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities included therein and their respective counsel in connection with the registration or
qualification of, such Additional Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities for offer and sale under the securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as any such Holder reasonably requests in writing and do any and all
other acts or things necessary or advisable to enable the offer and sale in such jurisdictions of the Additional Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange 

  

 8 

 
Securities covered by such Registration Statement; provided that the Company and the Note Guarantors will not be required to qualify generally to do
business in any jurisdiction where they are not then so qualified or to take any action which would subject them to general service of process or to taxation in any such jurisdiction where they are not then so subject. 
 (i) The Company and the Note Guarantors will cooperate with the Holders of Additional Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange
Securities to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Additional Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities to be sold pursuant to any Registration Statement free of any restrictive legends and
in such denominations and registered in such names as the Holders thereof may request in writing prior to sales of Additional Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. 
 (j) If any event contemplated by Section 4(b)(ii) through (v) occurs during the period for which the Company and the Note
Guarantors are required to maintain an effective Registration Statement, the Company and the Note Guarantors will promptly prepare and file with the Commission a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or a supplement to the related
prospectus or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the Additional Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities from a Holder, the prospectus will not include an untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. 
 (k) Not later than the effective date of the applicable Registration Statement, the Company will provide the applicable trustee with
printed certificates for the Additional Securities, the Exchange Securities or the Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be, in a form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company. 
 (l) The Company and the Note Guarantors will comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission and the Company will make
generally available to its Holders as soon as practicable after the effective date of the applicable Registration Statement an earning statement satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act; provided that in no event
shall such earning statement be delivered later than 45 days after the end of a 12-month period (or 90 days, if such period is a fiscal year), which statement shall cover such 12-month period. 
 (m) The Company and the Note Guarantors will cause the Indenture or the Exchange Securities Indenture, as the case may be, to be qualified
under the Trust Indenture Act as required by applicable law in a timely manner. 
 (n) The Company may require each Holder of
Transfer Restricted Securities to be registered pursuant to any Shelf Registration Statement to furnish to the Company such information concerning the Holder and the distribution of such Transfer Restricted Securities as the Company may from time to
time reasonably require for inclusion in such Shelf Registration 

  

 9 

 
Statement, and the Company may exclude from such registration the Transfer Restricted Securities of any Holder that fails to furnish such information within
a reasonable time after receiving such request. 
 (o) In the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, each Holder of Transfer
Restricted Securities to be registered pursuant thereto agrees by acquisition of such Transfer Restricted Securities that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company pursuant to Section 4(b)(ii) through (v), such Holder will discontinue
disposition of such Transfer Restricted Securities until such Holder’s receipt of copies of the supplemental or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 4(j) or until advised in writing (the “Advice”) by the Company that
the use of the applicable prospectus may be resumed. If the Company shall give any notice under Section 4(b)(ii) through (v) during the period that the Company is required to maintain an effective Registration Statement (the
“Effectiveness Period”), such Effectiveness Period shall be extended by the number of days during such period from and including the date of the giving of such notice to and including the date when each seller of Transfer Restricted
Securities covered by such Registration Statement shall have received (i) the copies of the supplemental or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 4(j) (if an amended or supplemental prospectus is required) or (ii) the Advice (if
no amended or supplemental prospectus is required). 
 (p) In the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, the Company and the
Note Guarantors shall enter into such customary agreements (including, if requested, an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take all such other action, if any, as Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Additional
Securities, Exchange Securities and Private Exchange Securities being sold or the managing underwriters (if any) shall reasonably request in order to facilitate any disposition of Additional Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange
Securities pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement. 
 (q) In the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, the Company
shall (i) make reasonably available for inspection by a representative of, and Special Counsel (as defined below) acting for, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Additional Securities, Exchange Securities and Private
Exchange Securities being sold and any underwriter participating in any disposition of Additional Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement, all relevant financial and other records,
pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company and its subsidiaries and (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to have its officers, directors, employees, accountants and counsel supply all relevant information reasonably requested
by such representative, Special Counsel or any such underwriter (an “Inspector”) in connection with such Shelf Registration Statement. 
 (r) In the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, the Company shall, if requested by Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Additional Securities, Exchange Securities and Private Exchange
Securities being sold, their Special Counsel or the managing underwriters (if any) in connection with such Shelf Registration Statement, use its reasonable best efforts to cause (i) its counsel to deliver an opinion relating to the Shelf
Registration Statement and the Additional Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities, as applicable, in customary form, (ii) its officers to execute and 

  

 10 

 
deliver all customary documents and certificates requested by Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Additional Securities, Exchange
Securities and Private Exchange Securities being sold, their Special Counsel or the managing underwriters (if any) and (iii) its independent public accountants to provide a comfort letter or letters in customary form, subject to receipt of
appropriate documentation as contemplated, and only if permitted, by Statement of Auditing Standards No. 72. 
 5. Registration
Expenses. The Company and the Note Guarantors will jointly and severally bear all expenses incurred in connection with the performance of its obligations under Sections 1, 2, 3 and 4 and the Company will reimburse the Trustee for the reasonable
fees and disbursements of one firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) chosen by the Trustee (the “Special Counsel”) acting for the Trustee in connection herewith. 
 6. Indemnification. (a) The Company and each Note Guarantor, jointly and severally shall indemnify the Trustee against any and all loss,
liability or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by or in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the performance of its duties hereunder. The Trustee shall notify the Company of any claim for which
it may seek indemnity promptly upon obtaining actual knowledge thereof; provided, however, that any failure so to notify the Company shall not relieve the Company or any Note Guarantor of its indemnity obligations hereunder. The Company shall
defend the claim and the indemnified party shall provide reasonable cooperation at the Company’s expense in the defense. Such indemnified parties may have separate counsel and the Company and the Note Guarantors, as applicable, shall pay the
fees and expenses of such counsel; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay such fees and expenses if it assumes such indemnified parties’ defense and, in such indemnified parties’ reasonable judgment, there
is no conflict of interest between the Company and the Note Guarantors, as applicable, and such parties in connection with such defense. The Company need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by an
indemnified party through such party’s own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith. 
 (b) In the event of a Shelf Registration
Statement or in connection with any prospectus delivery pursuant to an Exchange Offer Registration Statement by an Exchanging Dealer, the Company and the Note Guarantors shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee and each
Holder (including, without limitation, any such Exchanging Dealer), their respective affiliates, their respective officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents, and each person, if any, who controls either the Trustee or such Holder
within the meaning of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) or the Securities Act (collectively referred to for purposes of this Section 6 and Section 7 as an “Indemnified Party”)
from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability, joint or several, or any action in respect thereof (including, without limitation, any loss, claim, damage, liability or action relating to purchases and sales of Additional Securities, Exchange
Securities or Private Exchange Securities), to which that Indemnified Party may become subject, whether commenced or threatened, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or
otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in 

  

 11 

 
any such Registration Statement or any prospectus forming part thereof or in any amendment or supplement thereto or (ii) the omission or alleged
omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and shall reimburse each Indemnified Party
promptly upon demand for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by that Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend against or appearing as a third party witness in connection with any such loss,
claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company and the Note Guarantors shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action
arises out of, or is based upon, an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in or omission or alleged omission from any of such documents in reliance upon and in conformity with any Holders’ Information. 
 (c) In the event of a Shelf Registration Statement, each Holder shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the Note Guarantors, their affiliates,
their respective officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents, and each person, if any, who controls the Company or the Note Guarantors within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (collectively referred to for purposes
of this Section 6(b) and Section 7 as the “Company”), from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability, joint or several, or any action in respect thereof, to which the Company may become subject, whether commenced or
threatened, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, (i) any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any such Registration Statement or any prospectus forming part thereof or in any amendment or supplement thereto or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, but in each case only to the extent that the untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with any Holders’ Information furnished to the Company by such Holder, and shall reimburse the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred by the Company in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend against or appearing as a third party witness in connection with any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred;
provided, however, that no such Holder shall be liable for any indemnity claims hereunder in excess of the amount of net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Additional Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange
Securities pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement. 
 (d) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 6 of
notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, the indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party pursuant to Section 6(a) or 6(b), notify the indemnifying party in writing of the
claim or the commencement of that action; provided, however, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have under this Section 6 except to the extent that it has been
materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided, further, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to an
indemnified party otherwise 

  

 12 

 
than under this Section 6. If any such claim or action shall be brought against an indemnified party, and it shall notify the indemnifying party
thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other similarly notified indemnifying party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such claim or action, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party under this Section 6 for any
legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than the reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, that an indemnified party shall have the right to employ
its own counsel in any such action, but the fees, expenses and other charges of such counsel for the indemnified party will be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (1) the employment of counsel by the indemnified party has been
authorized in writing by the indemnifying party, (2) the indemnified party has reasonably concluded (based upon advice of counsel to the indemnified party) that there may be legal defenses available to it or other indemnified parties that are
different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party, (3) a conflict or potential conflict exists (based upon advice of counsel to the indemnified party) between the indemnified party and the indemnifying party (in which
case the indemnifying party will not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party) or (4) the indemnifying party has not in fact employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to
assume the defense of such action within a reasonable time after receiving notice of the commencement of the action, in each of which cases the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel will be at the expense of the indemnifying
party or parties. It is understood that the indemnifying party or parties shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of more than
one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) at any one time for all such indemnified party or parties. Each indemnified party, as a condition of the indemnity agreements contained in Sections 6(a) and 6(b), shall use all
reasonable efforts to cooperate with the indemnifying party in the defense of any such action or claim. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any such action effected without its written consent (which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld), but if settled with its written consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such action, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified party from and against any loss or
liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), effect any settlement of any pending or threatened
proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all
liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding. 
 7. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in
Section 6 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Section 6(a) or 6(b), then each indemnifying party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company and the Note Guarantors, on the one hand, and such Holder, on the
other, with respect to the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, claim, damage or liability, 

  

 13 

 
or action in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other
things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to the Company and the Note Guarantors or information supplied by the Company and the Note Guarantors, on
the one hand, or to any Holders’ Information supplied by such Holder, on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The
parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 7 were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable
considerations referred to herein. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this Section 7 shall be deemed to include, for
purposes of this Section 7, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this
Section 7, an indemnifying party that is a Holder of Additional Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the
Additional Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities sold by such indemnifying party to any purchaser exceeds the amount of any damages which such indemnifying party has otherwise paid or become liable to pay by reason of any
untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not
guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. 
 8. Rules 144 and 144A. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to file the
reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act in a timely manner and, if at any time the Company is not required to file such reports, it will, upon the written request of any Holder of Transfer Restricted
Securities, make publicly available other information so long as necessary to permit sales of such Holder’s Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to Rules 144 and 144A. The Company and the Note Guarantors covenant that they will take such
further action as any Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Transfer Restricted Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the
limitation of the exemptions provided by Rules 144 and 144A (including, without limitation, the requirements of Rule 144A(d)(4)). Upon the written request of any Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities, the Company and the Note Guarantors shall
deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether they have complied with such requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 8 shall be deemed to require the Company to register any of its securities pursuant to
the Exchange Act. 
 9. Underwritten Registrations. If any of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by any Shelf Registration
Statement are to be sold in an underwritten offering, the investment banker or investment bankers and manager or managers that will administer the offering will be selected by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of such Transfer
Restricted Securities included in such offering, subject to the consent of the Company (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and such Holders shall be responsible for all underwriting commissions and discounts in connection
therewith. 
  

 14 

 No person may participate in any underwritten registration hereunder unless such person (a) agrees
to sell such person’s Transfer Restricted Securities on the basis reasonably provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (b) completes and executes all
questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements. 
 10. Miscellaneous. (a) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be
given, unless the Company has obtained the written consent of Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Additional Securities, the Exchange Securities and the Private Exchange Securities, taken as a single class. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, a waiver or consent to depart from the provisions hereof with respect to a matter that relates exclusively to the rights of Holders whose Additional Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities are being sold pursuant to
a Registration Statement and that does not directly or indirectly affect the rights of other Holders may be given by Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Additional Securities, the Exchange Securities and the Private Exchange
Securities being sold by such Holders pursuant to such Registration Statement. 
 (b) Notices. All notices and other communications
provided for or permitted hereunder shall be made in writing by hand-delivery, first-class mail, telecopier or air courier guaranteeing next-day delivery: 
 (i) if to the Trustee, initially at the address of the Trustee set forth on the signature page hereto; 
 (ii) if to a Holder, at the most current address given by such Holder to the Company in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10(b), which address initially is, with respect to each Holder, the address
of such Holder maintained by the Registrar under the Indenture, with a copy in like manner to the Trustee; and 
 (iii) if to
the Company, initially at the address of the Company set forth on the signature page hereto. 
 All such notices and communications shall be
deemed to have been duly given: when delivered by hand, if personally delivered; one business day after being delivered to a next-day air courier; five business days after being deposited in the mail; and when receipt is acknowledged by the
recipient’s telecopier machine, if sent by telecopier. 
 (c) Successors And Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the
Company, the Note Guarantors and their respective successors and assigns. 
  

 15 

 (d) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts (which may be
delivered in original form or by telecopier) and by the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

 (e) Definition of Terms. For purposes of this Agreement, (a) the term “business day” means any day that is
not a Saturday, Sunday or other day on which banking institutions are not required by law or by regulation to be open in the State of New York, (b) the term “subsidiary” has the meaning set forth in Rule 405 under the Securities Act
and (c) except where otherwise expressly provided, the term “affiliate” has the meaning set forth in Rule 405 under the Securities Act. 
 (f) Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof. 
 (g) GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

 (h) Remedies. In the event of a breach by the Company, any Note Guarantor or by any Holder of any of their obligations under this
Agreement, each Holder, the Company or any Note Guarantor, as the case may be, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages (other than the recovery of damages for a breach by the Company or any
Note Guarantor of its obligations under Sections 1 or 2 hereof for which additional interest have been paid pursuant to Section 3 hereof), will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Agreement. The Company, the Note
Guarantors and each Holder agree that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by each such person of any of the provisions of this Agreement and hereby further agree that, in the event of any
action for specific performance in respect of such breach, each such person shall waive the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate. 
 (i) No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company and each Note Guarantor represents, warrants and agrees that (i) it has not entered into, shall not, on or after the date of this Agreement, enter into any agreement that is
inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof, (ii) it has not previously entered into any agreement which remains in effect granting any registration rights with respect
to any of its debt securities to any person and (iii) (with respect to the Company) without limiting the generality of the foregoing, without the written consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding
Transfer Restricted Securities, it shall not grant to any person the right to request the Company to register any debt securities of the Company under the Securities Act unless the rights so granted are not in conflict or inconsistent with the
provisions of this Agreement. 
 (j) No Piggyback on Registrations. Neither the Company nor any of its security holders (other than
the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities in such capacity) shall have the right to include any securities of the Company in any Shelf Registration or Registered Exchange Offer other than Transfer Restricted Securities and Additional Securities.

  

 16 

 (k) Severability. The remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies
provided by law. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set
forth herein shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their reasonable best efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially
the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the parties that they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions
without including any of such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable. 
 (l) The Trustee. The Trustee
has acknowledged receipt of this Agreement pursuant to (i) the consent of the Holders of the Existing Securities, pursuant to the Waiver and Consent Agreement, dated as of March 17, 2006, by and among the Company and the signatories
thereto (the “Consent Agreement), and (ii) the direction of the Holders of the Additional Securities, by their acceptance of the Additional Securities. The Trustee’s obligations under this Agreement, if any, are subject to the
provisions of the Indenture. Nothing in this Agreement shall alter or impair the rights of the Trustee under the Indenture, including without limitation under Section 7.07 of the Indenture. 
 The Trustee makes no representation or warranty regarding, and shall have no duty, liability or obligation with respect to, any Registration Statement,
any prospectus forming part thereof, any amendment or supplement thereto, any facts stated in or omitted therefrom and/or any purchases or sales of Additional Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities. 
 In acknowledging receipt of this Agreement, the Trustee makes no representation or warranty regarding the representations made in this Agreement or
regarding the legality or sufficiency of this Agreement. The Trustee shall not be liable or responsible for any of the terms of this Agreement.

Securities. The Letter of Transmittal states that by so acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act. This Prospectus, as it
may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of Exchange Securities received in exchange for Securities where such Securities were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of
market-making activities or other trading activities. The Company has agreed that, for a period of 180 days after the Expiration Date (as defined herein), it will make this Prospectus available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any
such resale. See “Plan of Distribution”. 

 ANNEX B 
 Each broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its own account in exchange for Securities, where such Securities were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading
activities, must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. See “Plan of Distribution”. 

 ANNEX C 
 PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION 
 Each broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its own account
pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. This Prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a
broker-dealer in connection with resales of Exchange Securities received in exchange for Securities where such Securities were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. The Company has agreed that, for a period of
180 days after the Expiration Date, it will make this prospectus, as amended or supplemented, available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale. In addition, until
[            ], all dealers effecting transactions in the Exchange Securities may be required to deliver a prospectus. 
 The Company will not receive any proceeds from any sale of Exchange Securities by broker-dealers. Exchange Securities received by broker-dealers for
their own account pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions in the over-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions, through the writing of options on the Exchange Securities or a
combination of such methods of resale, at market prices prevailing at the time of resale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. Any such resale may be made directly to purchasers or to or through brokers or
dealers who may receive compensation in the form of commissions or concessions from any such broker-dealer or the purchasers of any such Exchange Securities. Any broker-dealer that resells Exchange Securities that were received by it for its own
account pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer and any broker or dealer that participates in a distribution of such Exchange Securities may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act and any profit on any
such resale of Exchange Securities and any commission or concessions received by any such persons may be deemed to be underwriting compensation under the Securities Act. The Letter of Transmittal states that, by acknowledging that it will deliver
and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act. 
 For a period of 180 days after the Expiration Date the Company will promptly send additional copies of this Prospectus and any amendment or supplement to this Prospectus to any broker-dealer that requests such
documents in the Letter of Transmittal. The Company has agreed to pay all expenses incident to the Registered Exchange Offer (including the expenses of one counsel for the Holders of the Securities) other than commissions or concessions of any
broker-dealers and will indemnify the Holders of the Securities (including any broker-dealers) against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

 Exhibit 4.2 
 AMERICAN MEDIA OPERATIONS, INC. 
 $5,454,000 
 8 7/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2011 
 EXCHANGE AND REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT

 December 13, 2007 
 To the Holders of
the Additional Securities (as defined herein) 
 Ladies and Gentlemen: 
 American Media Operations, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), proposes
to issue, for each $1,000 outstanding principal amount of the Company’s 8 7/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2011 (the
“Existing Securities”) held by any holder of Existing Securities, $36.36 principal amount of 8 7/8% Senior
Subordinated Notes due 2011 (the “Additional Securities” and, together with the Existing Securities, the “Securities”). The Securities were issued pursuant to an Indenture dated as of January 23, 2003 (as
supplemented, the “Indenture”), among the Company, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries as guarantors (the “Note Guarantors”) and HSBC Bank USA, National Association (as successor to JPMorgan Chase Bank,
N.A.), as trustee (the “Trustee”). The Company issued $150,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Existing Securities and $5,454,000 aggregate principal amount of Additional Securities pursuant to the Indenture.

 In connection with the issuance of the Additional Securities, the Company and the Note Guarantors agree with the holders of
the Securities, the Exchange Securities (as defined herein) and the Private Exchange Securities (as defined herein) (collectively, the “Holders”), as follows: 
 1. Registered Exchange Offer. The Company and the Note Guarantors shall (a) prepare and, not later than 105 days following the date of
original issuance of the Additional Securities (the “Issue Date”), file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a registration statement (the “Exchange Offer Registration
Statement”) on an appropriate form under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) with respect to a proposed offer to the Holders of the Additional Securities (the “Registered Exchange
Offer”) to issue and deliver to such Holders, in exchange for the Additional Securities, a like aggregate principal amount of debt securities of the Company (the “Exchange Securities”) that are identical in all material
respects to the Additional Securities, except for the transfer restrictions relating to the Additional Securities, (b) use their reasonable best efforts to cause the Exchange Offer Registration Statement to become effective under the Securities
Act no later than 165 days after the Issue Date and the Registered Exchange Offer to be consummated no later than 195 days after the Issue Date and (c) keep the Exchange Offer Registration Statement effective for not less than 20 business days
(or longer, if required by applicable law) after the date on 

 
which notice of the Registered Exchange Offer is mailed to the Holders (such period being called the “Exchange Offer Registration Period”).
The Exchange Securities will be issued under the Indenture or an indenture (the “Exchange Securities Indenture”) among the Company, the Note Guarantors and the Trustee or such other bank or trust company that is reasonably
satisfactory to the Company, as trustee (the “Exchange Securities Trustee”), such indenture to be identical in all material respects to the Indenture, except for the transfer restrictions relating to the Additional Securities (as
described above). 
 Upon the effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, the Company shall promptly commence the Registered
Exchange Offer, it being the objective of such Registered Exchange Offer to enable each Holder electing to exchange Additional Securities for Exchange Securities (assuming that such Holder (a) is not an affiliate of the Company or an Exchanging
Dealer (as defined herein) not complying with the requirements of the next sentence, (b) acquires the Exchange Securities in the ordinary course of business of such Holder and (c) has no arrangements or understandings with any person to
participate in the distribution of the Exchange Securities) to trade such Exchange Securities from and after their receipt without any limitations or restrictions under the Securities Act and without material restrictions under the securities laws
of the several states of the United States. The Company, the Note Guarantors and each Exchanging Dealer acknowledge that, pursuant to current interpretations by the Commission’s staff of Section 5 of the Securities Act, each Holder that is
a broker-dealer electing to exchange Additional Securities acquired for its own account as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, for Exchange Securities (an “Exchanging Dealer”), is required to deliver a
prospectus containing substantially the information set forth in Annex A hereto on the cover, in Annex B hereto in the “Exchange Offer Procedures” section and the “Purpose of the Exchange Offer” section and in Annex
C hereto in the “Plan of Distribution” section of such prospectus in connection with a sale of any such Exchange Securities received by such Exchanging Dealer pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer. 
 If, prior to the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer, any Holder holds any Additional Securities acquired by it that have, or that are
reasonably likely to be determined to have, the status of an unsold allotment in an initial distribution, or any Holder is not entitled to participate in the Registered Exchange Offer, the Company shall, upon the request of any such Holder,
simultaneously with the delivery of the Exchange Securities in the Registered Exchange Offer, issue and deliver to any such Holder, in exchange for the Additional Securities held by such Holder (the “Private Exchange”), a like
aggregate principal amount of debt securities of the Company (the “Private Exchange Securities”) that are identical in all material respects to the Exchange Securities, except for the transfer restrictions relating to such Private
Exchange Securities. The Private Exchange Securities will be issued under the same indenture as the Exchange Securities, and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Private Exchange Securities to bear the same CUSIP number as
the Exchange Securities. 
 In connection with the Registered Exchange Offer, the Company shall: 
 (a) mail to each Holder a copy of the prospectus forming part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, together with an appropriate
letter of transmittal and related documents; 
  

 2 

 (b) keep the Registered Exchange Offer open for not less than 20 business days (or
longer, if required by applicable law) after the date on which notice of the Registered Exchange Offer is mailed to the Holders; 
 (c) utilize the services of a depositary for the Registered Exchange Offer with an address in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York; 
 (d) permit Holders to withdraw tendered Additional Securities at any time prior to the close of business, New York City time, on the last business day on which the Registered Exchange Offer shall remain open; and

 (e) otherwise comply in all respects with all laws that are applicable to the Registered Exchange Offer. 
 As soon as practicable after the close of the Registered Exchange Offer and any Private Exchange, as the case may be, the Company shall: 
 (a) accept for exchange all Additional Securities tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer and the
Private Exchange; 
 (b) deliver to the Trustee for cancellation all Additional Securities so accepted for exchange; and

 (c) cause the Trustee or the Exchange Securities Trustee, as the case may be, promptly to authenticate and deliver to each
Holder, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be, equal in principal amount to the Additional Securities of such Holder. 
 The Company and the Note Guarantors shall use their reasonable best efforts to keep the Exchange Offer Registration Statement effective and to amend and supplement the prospectus contained therein in order to permit
such prospectus to be used by all persons subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act for such period of time as such persons must comply with such requirements in order to resell the Exchange Securities; provided
that (a) in the case where such prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto must be delivered by an Exchanging Dealer, such period shall be the lesser of 180 days and the date on which all Exchanging Dealers have sold all Exchange
Securities held by them and (b) the Company shall make such prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any resale of any Exchange Securities for a period of not less than 180
days after the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer. 
 The Indenture or the Exchange Securities Indenture, as the case may be,
shall provide that the Securities, the Exchange Securities and the Private Exchange Securities shall vote and consent together on all matters as one class and that none of the Securities, the Exchange Securities or the Private Exchange Securities
will have the right to vote or consent as a separate class on any matter. 
 Interest on each Exchange Security and Private Exchange Security
issued pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer and in the Private Exchange will accrue from the last interest payment date on which interest was paid on the Securities surrendered in exchange therefor or, in the case of Additional Securities, if
no interest has been paid on the Additional Securities, from the Issue Date. 
  

 3 

 Each Holder participating in the Registered Exchange Offer shall be required to represent to the Company
that at the time of the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer (a) any Exchange Securities received by such Holder will be acquired in the ordinary course of business, (b) such Holder will have no arrangements or understanding with
any person to participate in the distribution of the Securities or the Exchange Securities within the meaning of the Securities Act and (c) such Holder is not an affiliate of the Company or, if it is such an affiliate, such Holder will comply
with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act to the extent applicable. 
 Notwithstanding any other
provisions hereof, the Company and the Note Guarantors will ensure that (a) any Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any amendment thereto and any prospectus forming part thereof and any supplement thereto complies in all material respects
with the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, (b) any Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any amendment thereto does not, when it becomes effective, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or
omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and (c) any prospectus forming part of any Exchange Offer Registration Statement, and any supplement to such prospectus, does
not, as of the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer, include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading. 
 2. Shelf Registration. If (a) because of any change in law or applicable interpretations thereof by the
Commission’s staff, the Company is not permitted to effect the Registered Exchange Offer as contemplated by Section 1 hereof, or (b) any Additional Securities validly tendered pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer are not
exchanged for Exchange Securities within 195 days after the Issue Date, or (c) any applicable law or interpretations do not permit any Holder to participate in the Registered Exchange Offer, or (d) any Holder that participates in the
Registered Exchange Offer does not receive freely transferable Exchange Securities in exchange for tendered Additional Securities, then the following provisions shall apply: 
 (a) The Company and the Note Guarantors shall use their reasonable best efforts to file as promptly as practicable (but in no event more
than 45 days after so required or requested pursuant to this Section 2) with the Commission, and thereafter shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause to be declared effective, a shelf registration statement on an appropriate form under
the Securities Act relating to the offer and sale of the Transfer Restricted Securities (as defined below) by the Holders thereof from time to time in accordance with the methods of distribution set forth in such registration statement (hereafter, a
“Shelf Registration Statement” and, together with any Exchange Offer Registration Statement, a “Registration Statement”). 
  

 4 

 (b) The Company and the Note Guarantors shall use their reasonable best efforts to keep
the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective in order to permit the prospectus forming part thereof to be used by Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities for a period ending on the earlier of (i) two years from the Issue Date or
such shorter period that will terminate when all the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement have been sold pursuant thereto and (ii) the date on which the Securities become eligible for resale without volume
restrictions pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (in any such case, such period being called the “Shelf Registration Period”). The Company and the Note Guarantors shall be deemed not to have used their reasonable best
efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement effective during the requisite period if any of them voluntarily take any action that would result in Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities covered thereby not being able to offer and sell such
Transfer Restricted Securities during that period, unless such action is required by applicable law. 
 (c) Notwithstanding
any other provisions hereof, the Company and the Note Guarantors will ensure that (i) any Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment thereto and any prospectus forming part thereof and any supplement thereto complies in all material
respects with the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, (ii) any Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment thereto (in either case, other than with respect to information included therein in reliance
upon or in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of any Holder specifically for use therein (the “Holders’ Information”)) does not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to
state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and (iii) any prospectus forming part of any Shelf Registration Statement, and any supplement to such prospectus (in either case,
other than with respect to Holders’ Information), does not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they
were made, not misleading. 
 3. Additional Interest. (a) The parties hereto agree that the Holders of Transfer Restricted
Securities will suffer damages if the Company and the Note Guarantors fail to fulfill their obligations under Section 1 or Section 2, as applicable, and that it would not be feasible to ascertain the extent of such damages. Accordingly, if
(i) the applicable Registration Statement is not filed with the Commission on or prior to 105 days after the Issue Date, (ii) the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or the Shelf Registration Statement, as the case may be, is not
declared effective within 165 days after the Issue Date (or in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement required to be filed in response to a change in law or the applicable interpretations of Commission’s staff, if later, within 60 days
after publication of the change in law or interpretation), (iii) the Registered Exchange Offer is not consummated on or prior to 195 days after the Issue Date, (iv) the Exchange Offer Registration Statement does not remain effective during
the Exchange Offer Registration Period, or (v) the Shelf Registration Statement is filed and declared effective within 165 days after the Issue Date (or in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement required to be filed in response to a change
in law or the applicable interpretations of Commission’s staff, if later, within 60 days after publication of the change in law or interpretation) but shall thereafter cease to be effective (at any time that the Company and the Note Guarantors
are obligated to maintain the effectiveness thereof) without being 

  

 5 

 
succeeded within 90 days by an additional Registration Statement filed and declared effective (each such event referred to in clauses (i) through (v), a
“Registration Default”), the Company and the Note Guarantors will be jointly and severally obligated to pay additional interest to each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities, during the period of one or more such Registration
Defaults, in an amount equal to $0.000192 per week per $1 principal amount of Transfer Restricted Securities held by such Holder until (1) the applicable Registration Statement is filed, (2) the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is
declared effective and the Registered Exchange Offer is consummated, (3) the Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective or (4) the Shelf Registration Statement again becomes effective, as the case may be. Following the cure of all
Registration Defaults, the accrual of additional interest will cease. As used herein, the term “Transfer Restricted Securities” means (i) each Additional Security until the date on which such Additional Security has been
exchanged for a freely transferable Exchange Security in the Registered Exchange Offer, (ii) each Additional Security or Private Exchange Security until the date on which it has been effectively registered under the Securities Act and disposed
of in accordance with the Shelf Registration Statement or (iii) each Additional Security or Private Exchange Security until the date on which it is distributed to the public pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or is saleable pursuant
to Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3(a), the Company shall not be required to pay additional interest to a Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities if such Holder failed to comply
with its obligations to make the representations set forth in the second to last paragraph of Section 1 or failed to provide the information required to be provided by it, if any, pursuant to Section 4(n). 
 (b) The Company shall notify the Trustee and the Paying Agent under the Indenture in writing within one business day after each date on which a
Registration Default occurs. The Company and the Note Guarantors shall pay the additional interest due on the Transfer Restricted Securities by depositing with the Paying Agent (which may not be the Company for these purposes), in trust, for the
benefit of the Holders thereof, prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the next interest payment date specified by the Indenture and the Additional Securities, sums sufficient to pay the additional interest then due. The additional interest due
shall be payable on each interest payment date specified by the Indenture and the Additional Securities to the record holder entitled to receive the interest payment to be made on such date. The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, at least five
business days before any such interest payment date, an Officers’ Certificate certifying as to the amount of additional interest due on such interest payment date, with a direction regarding payment of such additional interest to the Holders of
the Additional Notes. The Trustee shall have no responsibility with respect to the determination of the amount of any such additional interest. If the Trustee does not receive notice from the Company of an event in respect of which additional
interest is required to be paid or does not receive an Officers’ Certificate from the Company five business days before any interest payment date, the Trustee shall be entitled to assume that no additional interest is due on such interest
payment date. Each obligation to pay additional interest shall be deemed to accrue from and including the date of the applicable Registration Default. 
 (c) The additional interest provided for in this Section 3 constitutes a reasonable estimate of and is intended to constitute the sole damages that will be suffered by Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities by
reason of the failure of (i) the Shelf Registration 

  

 6 

 
Statement or the Exchange Offer Registration Statement to be filed, (ii) the Shelf Registration Statement to remain effective or (iii) the Exchange
Offer Registration Statement to be declared effective and the Registered Exchange Offer to be consummated, in each case to the extent required by this Agreement. 
 4. Registration Procedures. In connection with any Registration Statement, the following provisions shall apply: 
 (a) The Company shall (i) include the information set forth in Annex A hereto on the cover, in Annex B hereto in the “Exchange Offer Procedures” section and the “Purpose of the Exchange
Offer” section and in Annex C hereto in the “Plan of Distribution” section of the prospectus forming a part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, and include the information set forth in Annex D hereto in the Letter
of Transmittal delivered pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer; and (ii) include the information required by Items 507 or 508 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act, as applicable, in the prospectus forming a part of the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement. 
 (b) The Company shall advise each Exchanging Dealer, the Trustee and the Holders and, if requested
by any such person, confirm such advice in writing (which advice pursuant to clauses (ii)-(v) hereof shall be accompanied by an instruction to suspend the use of the prospectus until the requisite changes have been made): 
 (i) when any Registration Statement and any amendment thereto has been filed with the Commission and when such Registration Statement or
any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective; 
 (ii) of any request by the Commission for amendments or
supplements to any Registration Statement or the prospectus included therein or for additional information; 
 (iii) of the
issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose; 
 (iv) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Securities, the Exchange
Securities or the Private Exchange Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and 
 (v) of the happening of any event that requires the making of any changes in any Registration Statement or the prospectus included therein in order that the statements therein are not misleading and do not omit to
state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. 
  

 7 

 (c) The Company and the Note Guarantors will make every reasonable effort to obtain the
withdrawal at the earliest possible time of any order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement. 
 (d) The
Company will furnish to each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities included within the coverage of any Shelf Registration Statement, without charge, at least one conformed copy of such Shelf Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment
thereto, including financial statements and schedules and, if any such Holder so requests in writing, all exhibits thereto (including those, if any, incorporated by reference). 
 (e) The Company will, during the Shelf Registration Period, promptly deliver to each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities included
within the coverage of any Shelf Registration Statement, without charge, as many copies of the prospectus (including each preliminary prospectus) included in such Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto as such Holder
may reasonably request; and the Company consents to the use of such prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto by each of the selling Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities in connection with the offer and sale of the Transfer Restricted
Securities covered by such prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto. 
 (f) The Company will furnish to each
Exchanging Dealer, and to any other Holder who so requests, without charge, at least one conformed copy of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, including financial statements and schedules and, if any
Exchanging Dealer or any such Holder so requests in writing, all exhibits thereto (including those, if any, incorporated by reference). 
 (g) The Company will, during the Exchange Offer Registration Period or the Shelf Registration Period, as applicable, promptly deliver to each Exchanging Dealer and such other persons that are required to deliver a
prospectus following the Registered Exchange Offer, without charge, as many copies of the final prospectus included in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or the Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto as such
Exchanging Dealer or other persons may reasonably request; and the Company and the Note Guarantors consent to the use of such prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto by any such Exchanging Dealer or other persons, as applicable, as
aforesaid. 
 (h) Prior to the effective date of any Registration Statement, the Company and the Note Guarantors will use
their reasonable best efforts to register or qualify, or cooperate with the Holders of Additional Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities included therein and their respective counsel in connection with the registration or
qualification of, such Additional Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities for offer and sale under the securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as any such Holder reasonably requests in writing and do any and all
other acts or things necessary or advisable to enable the offer and sale in such jurisdictions of the Additional Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange 

  

 8 

 
Securities covered by such Registration Statement; provided that the Company and the Note Guarantors will not be required to qualify generally to do
business in any jurisdiction where they are not then so qualified or to take any action which would subject them to general service of process or to taxation in any such jurisdiction where they are not then so subject. 
 (i) The Company and the Note Guarantors will cooperate with the Holders of Additional Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange
Securities to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Additional Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities to be sold pursuant to any Registration Statement free of any restrictive legends and
in such denominations and registered in such names as the Holders thereof may request in writing prior to sales of Additional Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. 
 (j) If any event contemplated by Section 4(b)(ii) through (v) occurs during the period for which the Company and the Note
Guarantors are required to maintain an effective Registration Statement, the Company and the Note Guarantors will promptly prepare and file with the Commission a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or a supplement to the related
prospectus or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the Additional Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities from a Holder, the prospectus will not include an untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. 
 (k) Not later than the effective date of the applicable Registration Statement, the Company will provide the applicable trustee with
printed certificates for the Additional Securities, the Exchange Securities or the Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be, in a form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company. 
 (l) The Company and the Note Guarantors will comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission and the Company will make
generally available to its Holders as soon as practicable after the effective date of the applicable Registration Statement an earning statement satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act; provided that in no event
shall such earning statement be delivered later than 45 days after the end of a 12-month period (or 90 days, if such period is a fiscal year), which statement shall cover such 12-month period. 
 (m) The Company and the Note Guarantors will cause the Indenture or the Exchange Securities Indenture, as the case may be, to be qualified
under the Trust Indenture Act as required by applicable law in a timely manner. 
 (n) The Company may require each Holder of
Transfer Restricted Securities to be registered pursuant to any Shelf Registration Statement to furnish to the Company such information concerning the Holder and the distribution of such Transfer Restricted Securities as the Company may from time to
time reasonably require for inclusion in such Shelf Registration Statement, and the Company may exclude from such registration the Transfer Restricted Securities of any Holder that fails to furnish such information within a reasonable time after
receiving such request. 
  

 9 

 (o) In the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, each Holder of Transfer Restricted
Securities to be registered pursuant thereto agrees by acquisition of such Transfer Restricted Securities that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company pursuant to Section 4(b)(ii) through (v), such Holder will discontinue disposition of
such Transfer Restricted Securities until such Holder’s receipt of copies of the supplemental or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 4(j) or until advised in writing (the “Advice”) by the Company that the use of the
applicable prospectus may be resumed. If the Company shall give any notice under Section 4(b)(ii) through (v) during the period that the Company is required to maintain an effective Registration Statement (the “Effectiveness
Period”), such Effectiveness Period shall be extended by the number of days during such period from and including the date of the giving of such notice to and including the date when each seller of Transfer Restricted Securities covered by
such Registration Statement shall have received (i) the copies of the supplemental or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 4(j) (if an amended or supplemental prospectus is required) or (ii) the Advice (if no amended or
supplemental prospectus is required). 
 (p) In the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, the Company and the Note
Guarantors shall enter into such customary agreements (including, if requested, an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take all such other action, if any, as Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Additional Securities,
Exchange Securities and Private Exchange Securities being sold or the managing underwriters (if any) shall reasonably request in order to facilitate any disposition of Additional Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities
pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement. 
 (q) In the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, the Company shall
(i) make reasonably available for inspection by a representative of, and Special Counsel (as defined below) acting for, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Additional Securities, Exchange Securities and Private Exchange
Securities being sold and any underwriter participating in any disposition of Additional Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement, all relevant financial and other records,
pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company and its subsidiaries and (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to have its officers, directors, employees, accountants and counsel supply all relevant information reasonably requested
by such representative, Special Counsel or any such underwriter (an “Inspector”) in connection with such Shelf Registration Statement. 
 (r) In the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, the Company shall, if requested by Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Additional Securities, Exchange Securities and Private Exchange
Securities being sold, their Special Counsel or the managing underwriters (if any) in connection with such Shelf Registration Statement, use its reasonable best efforts to cause (i) its counsel to deliver an opinion relating to the Shelf
Registration Statement and the Additional Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities, as applicable, in customary form, (ii) its officers to execute and 
  

 10 

 
deliver all customary documents and certificates requested by Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Additional Securities, Exchange
Securities and Private Exchange Securities being sold, their Special Counsel or the managing underwriters (if any) and (iii) its independent public accountants to provide a comfort letter or letters in customary form, subject to receipt of
appropriate documentation as contemplated, and only if permitted, by Statement of Auditing Standards No. 72. 
 5. Registration
Expenses. The Company and the Note Guarantors will jointly and severally bear all expenses incurred in connection with the performance of its obligations under Sections 1, 2, 3 and 4 and the Company will reimburse the Trustee for the reasonable
fees and disbursements of one firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) chosen by the Trustee (the “Special Counsel”) acting for the Trustee in connection herewith. 
 6. Indemnification. (a) The Company and each Note Guarantor, jointly and severally shall indemnify the Trustee against any and all loss,
liability or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by or in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the performance of its duties hereunder. The Trustee shall notify the Company of any claim for which
it may seek indemnity promptly upon obtaining actual knowledge thereof; provided, however, that any failure so to notify the Company shall not relieve the Company or any Note Guarantor of its indemnity obligations hereunder. The Company shall defend
the claim and the indemnified party shall provide reasonable cooperation at the Company’s expense in the defense. Such indemnified parties may have separate counsel and the Company and the Note Guarantors, as applicable, shall pay the fees and
expenses of such counsel; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay such fees and expenses if it assumes such indemnified parties’ defense and, in such indemnified parties’ reasonable judgment, there is no conflict
of interest between the Company and the Note Guarantors, as applicable, and such parties in connection with such defense. The Company need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by an indemnified party
through such party’s own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith. 
 (b) In the event of a Shelf Registration Statement or in
connection with any prospectus delivery pursuant to an Exchange Offer Registration Statement by an Exchanging Dealer, the Company and the Note Guarantors shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee and each Holder (including,
without limitation, any such Exchanging Dealer), their respective affiliates, their respective officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents, and each person, if any, who controls either the Trustee or such Holder within the meaning of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) or the Securities Act (collectively referred to for purposes of this Section 6 and Section 7 as an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any
loss, claim, damage or liability, joint or several, or any action in respect thereof (including, without limitation, any loss, claim, damage, liability or action relating to purchases and sales of Additional Securities, Exchange Securities or
Private Exchange Securities), to which that Indemnified Party may become subject, whether commenced or threatened, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise,
insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in 
  

 11 

 
any such Registration Statement or any prospectus forming part thereof or in any amendment or supplement thereto or (ii) the omission or alleged
omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and shall reimburse each Indemnified Party
promptly upon demand for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by that Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend against or appearing as a third party witness in connection with any such loss,
claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company and the Note Guarantors shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action
arises out of, or is based upon, an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in or omission or alleged omission from any of such documents in reliance upon and in conformity with any Holders’ Information. 
 (c) In the event of a Shelf Registration Statement, each Holder shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the Note Guarantors, their affiliates,
their respective officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents, and each person, if any, who controls the Company or the Note Guarantors within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (collectively referred to for purposes
of this Section 6(b) and Section 7 as the “Company”), from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability, joint or several, or any action in respect thereof, to which the Company may become subject, whether commenced or
threatened, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, (i) any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any such Registration Statement or any prospectus forming part thereof or in any amendment or supplement thereto or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, but in each case only to the extent that the untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with any Holders’ Information furnished to the Company by such Holder, and shall reimburse the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred by the Company in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend against or appearing as a third party witness in connection with any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred;
provided, however, that no such Holder shall be liable for any indemnity claims hereunder in excess of the amount of net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Additional Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange
Securities pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement. 
 (d) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 6 of
notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, the indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party pursuant to Section 6(a) or 6(b), notify the indemnifying party in writing of the
claim or the commencement of that action; provided, however, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have under this Section 6 except to the extent that it has been
materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided, further, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to an
indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 6. If any such claim or action shall be brought against an indemnified party, and it shall notify the 

  

 12 

 
indemnifying party thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other
similarly notified indemnifying party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such claim
or action, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party under this Section 6 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than the reasonable
costs of investigation; provided, however, that an indemnified party shall have the right to employ its own counsel in any such action, but the fees, expenses and other charges of such counsel for the indemnified party will be at the
expense of such indemnified party unless (1) the employment of counsel by the indemnified party has been authorized in writing by the indemnifying party, (2) the indemnified party has reasonably concluded (based upon advice of counsel to
the indemnified party) that there may be legal defenses available to it or other indemnified parties that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party, (3) a conflict or potential conflict exists (based upon
advice of counsel to the indemnified party) between the indemnified party and the indemnifying party (in which case the indemnifying party will not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party) or
(4) the indemnifying party has not in fact employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to assume the defense of such action within a reasonable time after receiving notice of the commencement of the action, in each of
which cases the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel will be at the expense of the indemnifying party or parties. It is understood that the indemnifying party or parties shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related
proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) at any one time for all such indemnified party or parties. Each
indemnified party, as a condition of the indemnity agreements contained in Sections 6(a) and 6(b), shall use all reasonable efforts to cooperate with the indemnifying party in the defense of any such action or claim. No indemnifying party shall be
liable for any settlement of any such action effected without its written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), but if settled with its written consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such action, the
indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party
(which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such
indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding. 
 7. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in Section 6 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under
Section 6(a) or 6(b), then each indemnifying party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in
respect thereof, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company and the Note Guarantors, on the one hand, and such Holder, on the other, with respect to the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss,
claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a 

  

 13 

 
material fact relates to the Company and the Note Guarantors or information supplied by the Company and the Note Guarantors, on the one hand, or to any
Holders’ Information supplied by such Holder, on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it
would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 7 were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to
herein. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this Section 7 shall be deemed to include, for purposes of this Section 7,
any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7, an indemnifying party
that is a Holder of Additional Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Additional Securities, Exchange Securities or
Private Exchange Securities sold by such indemnifying party to any purchaser exceeds the amount of any damages which such indemnifying party has otherwise paid or become liable to pay by reason of any untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission
or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

 8. Rules 144 and 144A. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to file the reports required to be filed by it under the
Securities Act and the Exchange Act in a timely manner and, if at any time the Company is not required to file such reports, it will, upon the written request of any Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities, make publicly available other information
so long as necessary to permit sales of such Holder’s Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to Rules 144 and 144A. The Company and the Note Guarantors covenant that they will take such further action as any Holder of Transfer Restricted
Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Transfer Restricted Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rules 144
and 144A (including, without limitation, the requirements of Rule 144A(d)(4)). Upon the written request of any Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities, the Company and the Note Guarantors shall deliver to such Holder a written statement as to
whether they have complied with such requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 8 shall be deemed to require the Company to register any of its securities pursuant to the Exchange Act. 
 9. Underwritten Registrations. If any of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by any Shelf Registration Statement are to be sold in an
underwritten offering, the investment banker or investment bankers and manager or managers that will administer the offering will be selected by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of such Transfer Restricted Securities included
in such offering, subject to the consent of the Company (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and such Holders shall be responsible for all underwriting commissions and discounts in connection therewith. 
  

 14 

 No person may participate in any underwritten registration hereunder unless such person (a) agrees
to sell such person’s Transfer Restricted Securities on the basis reasonably provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (b) completes and executes all
questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements. 
 10. Miscellaneous. (a) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be
given, unless the Company has obtained the written consent of Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Additional Securities, the Exchange Securities and the Private Exchange Securities, taken as a single class. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, a waiver or consent to depart from the provisions hereof with respect to a matter that relates exclusively to the rights of Holders whose Additional Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities are being sold pursuant to
a Registration Statement and that does not directly or indirectly affect the rights of other Holders may be given by Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Additional Securities, the Exchange Securities and the Private Exchange
Securities being sold by such Holders pursuant to such Registration Statement. 
 (b) Notices. All notices and other communications
provided for or permitted hereunder shall be made in writing by hand-delivery, first-class mail, telecopier or air courier guaranteeing next-day delivery: 
 (i) if to the Trustee, initially at the address of the Trustee set forth on the signature page hereto; 
 (ii) if to a Holder, at the most current address given by such Holder to the Company in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10(b), which address initially is, with respect to each Holder, the address
of such Holder maintained by the Registrar under the Indenture, with a copy in like manner to the Trustee; and 
 (iii) if to
the Company, initially at the address of the Company set forth on the signature page hereto. 
 All such notices and communications shall be
deemed to have been duly given: when delivered by hand, if personally delivered; one business day after being delivered to a next-day air courier; five business days after being deposited in the mail; and when receipt is acknowledged by the
recipient’s telecopier machine, if sent by telecopier. 
 (c) Successors And Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the
Company, the Note Guarantors and their respective successors and assigns. 
 (d) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any
number of counterparts (which may be delivered in original form or by telecopier) and by the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute
one and the same agreement. 
  

 15 

 (e) Definition of Terms. For purposes of this Agreement, (a) the term “business
day” means any day that is not a Saturday, Sunday or other day on which banking institutions are not required by law or by regulation to be open in the State of New York, (b) the term “subsidiary” has the meaning set forth in
Rule 405 under the Securities Act and (c) except where otherwise expressly provided, the term “affiliate” has the meaning set forth in Rule 405 under the Securities Act. 
 (f) Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.

 (g) GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF
NEW YORK. 
 (h) Remedies. In the event of a breach by the Company, any Note Guarantor or by any Holder of any of their
obligations under this Agreement, each Holder, the Company or any Note Guarantor, as the case may be, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages (other than the recovery of damages for a breach
by the Company or any Note Guarantor of its obligations under Sections 1 or 2 hereof for which additional interest have been paid pursuant to Section 3 hereof), will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Agreement. The
Company, the Note Guarantors and each Holder agree that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by each such person of any of the provisions of this Agreement and hereby further agree that, in
the event of any action for specific performance in respect of such breach, each such person shall waive the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate. 
 (i) No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company and each Note Guarantor represents, warrants and agrees that (i) it has not entered into, shall not, on or after the date of this Agreement, enter into any
agreement that is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof, (ii) it has not previously entered into any agreement which remains in effect granting any registration
rights with respect to any of its debt securities to any person and (iii) (with respect to the Company) without limiting the generality of the foregoing, without the written consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of
the then outstanding Transfer Restricted Securities, it shall not grant to any person the right to request the Company to register any debt securities of the Company under the Securities Act unless the rights so granted are not in conflict or
inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement. 
 (j) No Piggyback on Registrations. Neither the Company nor any of its security
holders (other than the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities in such capacity) shall have the right to include any securities of the Company in any Shelf Registration or Registered Exchange Offer other than Transfer Restricted Securities and
Additional Securities. 
 (k) Severability. The remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by
law. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein
shall remain in full force and effect 

  

 16 

 
and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their reasonable best efforts to find and employ an alternative
means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the parties that they would have executed the remaining
terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable. 
 (l) The Trustee. The Trustee has acknowledged receipt of this Agreement pursuant to (i) the consent of the Holders of the Existing Securities, pursuant to the Waiver and Consent Agreement, dated as of March 17, 2006, by and
among the Company and the signatories thereto (the “Consent Agreement”), and (ii) the direction of the Holders of the Additional Securities, by their acceptance of the Additional Securities. The Trustee’s obligations under this
Agreement, if any, are subject to the provisions of the Indenture. Nothing in this Agreement shall alter or impair the rights of the Trustee under the Indenture, including without limitation under Section 7.07 of the Indenture. 
 The Trustee makes no representation or warranty regarding, and shall have no duty, liability or obligation with respect to, any Registration Statement,
any prospectus forming part thereof, any amendment or supplement thereto, any facts stated in or omitted therefrom and/or any purchases or sales of Additional Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities. 
 In acknowledging receipt of this Agreement, the Trustee makes no representation or warranty regarding the representations made in this Agreement or
regarding the legality or sufficiency of this Agreement. The Trustee shall not be liable or responsible for any of the terms of this Agreement.

 ANNEX A 
 Each broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its own account pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange
Securities. The Letter of Transmittal states that by so acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act. This Prospectus, as it
may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of Exchange Securities received in exchange for Securities where such Securities were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of
market-making activities or other trading activities. The Company has agreed that, for a period of 180 days after the Expiration Date (as defined herein), it will make this Prospectus available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any
such resale. See “Plan of Distribution”. 

 ANNEX B 
 Each broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its own account in exchange for Securities, where such Securities were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading
activities, must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. See “Plan of Distribution”. 

 ANNEX C 
 PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION 
 Each broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its own account
pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. This Prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a
broker-dealer in connection with resales of Exchange Securities received in exchange for Securities where such Securities were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. The Company has agreed that, for a period of
180 days after the Expiration Date, it will make this prospectus, as amended or supplemented, available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale. In addition, until
[            ], all dealers effecting transactions in the Exchange Securities may be required to deliver a prospectus. 
 The Company will not receive any proceeds from any sale of Exchange Securities by broker-dealers. Exchange Securities received by broker-dealers for
their own account pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions in the over-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions, through the writing of options on the Exchange Securities or a
combination of such methods of resale, at market prices prevailing at the time of resale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. Any such resale may be made directly to purchasers or to or through brokers or
dealers who may receive compensation in the form of commissions or concessions from any such broker-dealer or the purchasers of any such Exchange Securities. Any broker-dealer that resells Exchange Securities that were received by it for its own
account pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer and any broker or dealer that participates in a distribution of such Exchange Securities may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act and any profit on any
such resale of Exchange Securities and any commission or concessions received by any such persons may be deemed to be underwriting compensation under the Securities Act. The Letter of Transmittal states that, by acknowledging that it will deliver
and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act. 
 For a period of 180 days after the Expiration Date the Company will promptly send additional copies of this Prospectus and any amendment or supplement to this Prospectus to any broker-dealer that requests such
documents in the Letter of Transmittal. The Company has agreed to pay all expenses incident to the Registered Exchange Offer (including the expenses of one counsel for the Holders of the Securities) other than commissions or concessions of any
broker-dealers and will indemnify the Holders of the Securities (including any broker-dealers) against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. 

 ANNEX D 
  ̈    CHECK HERE IF YOU ARE A BROKER-DEALER AND WISH TO RECEIVE 10 ADDITIONAL COPIES OF THE PROSPECTUS AND 10 COPIES OF ANY AMENDMENTS OR SUPPLEMENTS THERETO.

will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities; however, by so acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, the undersigned will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of
the Securities Act.
