NOW THEREFORE, for
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by each of the parties hereto, the
parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

 

1.       
Waiver of Certain Conditions; Appointment of Administrative Agent. The Borrowers and the New Lender hereby waive
the requirements set forth in Section 8.06 of the Credit Agreement that the resigning Administrative Agent provide any prior notice

Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement and the other Assigned Loan Documents. Effective as of the Effective Date, the
Resigning Agent is hereby discharged from all duties and obligations under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents,
except as provided in this Agreement.

 

2.       
Resignation of JPMCB as Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender. The Borrowers hereby waive any requirement set forth
in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents for JPMCB in its capacity as an Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender to
(a) provide any prior notice of its resignation as an Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender or (b) find any replacement or successor
Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender. Effective as of the Effective Date, JPMCB is no longer an Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender
under the Credit Agreement and in such capacities JPMCB is hereby discharged from all duties and obligations of an Issuing Bank
and the Swingline Lender under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the foregoing, the Borrowers
hereby covenant and agree that (i) Tiger is not being appointed as, either an Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender, and is not assuming
(and shall have no obligation to assume) any rights, duties, responsibilities or liabilities of, an Issuing Bank or a Swingline
Lender under the Loan Documents, and (ii) from and after the Effective Date, (x) there will be no Swingline Lender under the Credit
Agreement and notwithstanding the terms of the Credit Agreement, no Swingline Loans shall be made available to the Borrowers thereunder
and (y) there will be no Issuing Bank under the Credit Agreement and notwithstanding the terms of the Credit Agreement, no Letters
of Credit be issued or renewed thereunder.

 

3.       
Rights, Duties and Obligations. Effective as of the Effective Date, the Successor Agent hereby succeeds to and is
vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the Administrative Agent under and in connection with the Credit
Agreement and the other Assigned Loan Documents, it being understood that nothing in this Agreement shall affect the continuing
validity of the indemnification, exculpation, expense reimbursement and other applicable provisions of Article 8, Section 2.17(d)
and Section 9.03 of the Credit Agreement and of any other Loan Document with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken
by the Resigning Agent, any of its subagents and their respective Related Parties while the Resigning Agent was acting as Administrative
Agent, all of which shall survive the Resigning Agent’s resignation and shall continue in effect for the benefit of the
Resigning Agent, any of its subagents and their respective Related Parties. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the
contrary, the parties hereto agree that this Agreement does not constitute an assumption by (a) the Successor Agent of any liability
or obligation of the Resigning Agent, any Affiliate of the Resigning Agent or any appointee or agent of the Resigning Agent arising
out of or in connection with any action or inaction by the Resigning Agent, any Affiliate of the Resigning Agent or any appointee
or agent of the Resigning Agent under or in connection with the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, or (b) the Resigning
Agent of any liability or obligation of Tiger or any appointee or agent thereof arising out of any action or inaction by Tiger
or such appointee or agent under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document. The parties hereto agree that (i) Tiger, in
its individual capacity and in its capacity as Successor Agent, shall bear no responsibility or liability for any event, circumstance,
condition or action existing prior to the Effective Date, with respect to the Collateral, the Credit Agreement or any other Loan
Document, or the transactions contemplated thereby, and (ii) JPMCB, in its individual capacity and in its capacity as Resigning
Agent, shall bear no responsibility or liability for any event, circumstance, condition or action arising on or after the Effective
Date with respect to the Collateral, the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the transactions contemplated thereby.

4.       
Collateral and Liens.

 

(a)       The
Resigning Agent hereby assigns to the Successor Agent all liens and security interests granted to the Resigning Agent under the
Assigned Loan Documents in the Collateral. All of such liens and security interests shall in all respects be continuing and in
effect and are hereby reaffirmed by the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties.

 

(b)       The
Borrowers and other Loan Parties hereby authorize the Successor Agent to file any Uniform Commercial Code financing statements
or similar documents, assignments or amendments that the Successor Agent deems necessary or desirable to evidence the Successor
Agent’s succession as Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement and the other Assigned Loan Documents. The Resigning
Agent hereby authorizes the Successor Agent to file Uniform Commercial Code assignments or amendments on form UCC-3 in all relevant
jurisdictions with respect to any existing UCC-1 financing statement filed in favor of Resigning Agent prior to the date hereof
and described on Schedule II. As of the Effective Date, there have been no amendments, supplements or consents to the Assigned
Loan Documents to which the Resigning Agent has knowledge or is a party, except as otherwise provided to the Successor Agent or
set forth on such Schedule II.

 

(c)       On
and after the Effective Date, any Collateral in the possession or control of the Resigning Agent, for the benefit of the Secured
Parties, shall be deemed to be held or controlled, as applicable, by the Resigning Agent, as agent and bailee for the Successor
Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, until such time as such Collateral has been delivered to the Successor Agent, notices
under any existing control agreements have been delivered to the applicable counterparty on behalf of the Successor Agent or new
control agreements in respect thereof have been entered into in favor of the Successor Agent, as applicable. Any reference to
the Resigning Agent on any publicly filed document, to the extent such filing relates to the liens and security interests in the
Collateral assigned hereby and until such filing is modified to reflect the interests of the Successor Agent, shall, with respect
to such liens and security interests, constitute a reference to the Resigning Agent, as collateral representative of the Successor
Agent.

 

(d)       Tiger
shall be entitled to assume that, as of the date hereof, all Liens purported to be granted and perfected pursuant to the Collateral
Documents are valid and perfected Liens having the priority intended by the Lenders and the Loan Documents, it being understood
that certain of the Loan Documents (A) permit the Administrative Agent to elect not to perfect its security interest in certain
Collateral in certain circumstances, and (B) only require certain perfection steps to be taken upon the request of the Administrative
Agent or when the value or stated amount of certain Collateral exceeds a specified individual or aggregate threshold.

 

(e)       Without
limiting any of the foregoing, the Borrowers acknowledge that a Dominion Period is, or is deemed to be, and shall at all times
hereafter be, or deemed to be, in effect under the Credit Agreement, and from and after the Effective Date, the Successor Agent
shall be the “Control Party” (or any similar term) under each of the deposit account control agreements referenced
on Schedule II (the “Control Agreements”) hereto in its capacity as the Administrative Agent under the
Credit Agreement. The Resigning Agent, the Successor Agent and the Loan Parties hereby agree that they will deliver, or cause
to be delivered on behalf of itself, any assignment notice or other documentation reasonably requested by JPMCB in its capacity
as depository bank under the Control Agreements to recognize the resignation of the Resigning Agent and the appointment of the
Successor Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and the Resigning Agent further agrees to assist the Successor Agent
in changing any control instructions previously given by the Resigning Agent under the Control Agreements to provide the wire
transfer instructions set forth on Schedule III hereto for the Successor Agent.

by the Borrowers for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including without limitation the reasonable and documented fees,
charges and disbursements of its respective counsel in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration
of this Agreement and the Assigned Loan Documents, and shall be entitled to indemnification, in each case, pursuant to and as
described in Section 9.03 of the Credit Agreement and regardless of when incurred by the Resigning Agent or the Successor Agent,
as applicable. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect the right, if any, of the Resigning Agent to receive (i) reimbursement of
its incurred but not yet reimbursed expenses and unpaid indemnity amounts, in each case under Section 9.03 of the Credit Agreement,
to the extent the Resigning Agent is entitled thereto under the terms of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and

which the Company is subject, if any, or usage, provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form acceptable
to the Company. Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. The Securities shall be in registered form without
coupons and issued only in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The terms and provisions
contained in the Securities shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture and, to the extent applicable,
the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms
and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the extent any provision of any Security conflicts with the express provisions
of this Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture (to the extent permitted by law) shall govern and be controlling.

the Global Security Legend thereon and the Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Security attached thereto). Securities
issued in definitive form shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A (but without, in each case, the Global Security

the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Securities from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal amount
of outstanding Securities represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges
and redemptions. Any endorsement of a Global Security to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate principal
amount of outstanding Securities represented thereby shall be made by the Securities Custodian, in accordance with written instructions
given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.06.

 

    12

     

    

 

(c)            Regulation

and Authentication. One Officer of the Company shall sign the Securities on behalf of the Company by manual or facsimile
signature. The Company’s seal may be (but shall not be required to be) impressed, affixed, imprinted or reproduced on the
Securities and may be in facsimile form.

 

If an Officer of the
Company whose signature is on this Indenture or a Security no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates such
Security or at any time thereafter, the Security shall be valid nevertheless.

 

A Security shall not
be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose until authenticated by the manual signature

evidence that the Security has been authenticated under this Indenture.

 

The Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver: (1) on the date hereof, Initial Securities for original issue in an aggregate principal amount
of $175,575,000 and (2) if and when issued, Additional Securities, in each case upon a written order of the Company signed

the issue of such Securities is to be authenticated and whether the Securities are to be in global or definitive form and whether
they are to bear the Private Placement Legend. The Company may issue Additional Securities under this Indenture subsequent to
the Issue Date, provided that a separate CUSIP will be used for any Additional Securities that are not “fungible”
for U.S. federal income tax purposes with the Securities issued on the Issue Date. In authenticating such Securities, the Trustee
shall receive, and shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon, an Opinion of Counsel substantially to the effect that such Securities
and the related Guarantees, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company and the Guarantors, respectively,
in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations
of the Company and the Guarantors, as the case may be, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, subject to bankruptcy,
insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting
creditors’ rights and to general equity principles.

one or more authenticating agents acceptable to the Company to authenticate Securities. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment,
an authenticating agent may authenticate Securities whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication
by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with the
Company, the Guarantors or any of their respective Affiliates.

of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder.
If the Company fails to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. Nabors
Bermuda or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

 

The place of payment
with respect to the Securities, in addition to the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, shall be an office maintained by the
Company in The City of New York, and at such time, if ever, as the Securities are no longer represented by one or more Global
Securities, the Company shall appoint and maintain a Paying Agent in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York, the intention
of the Company being that, after giving effect to the procedures of the Depositary respecting payments on Global Securities, the
Securities shall at all times be payable in New York, New York.

have been paid to it by the Company or the Guarantors, and will notify the Trustee in accordance with Section 11.02 of any
default by the Company or the Guarantors in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require
a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed. The Company at any time may
require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed. Upon payment over to
the Trustee and upon accounting for any funds disbursed, the Paying Agent (if other than the Company) shall have no further liability
for the money. If the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust
fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent.

 

SECTION 2.05.        Holder
Lists. The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available

(7)            The
Trustee shall authenticate or cause to be authenticated Global Securities and Definitive Securities upon receipt of a written order
of the Company signed by one of its Officers and in accordance with the other provisions of Section 2.02 to the extent applicable.

obligations under Section 6045 of the Code. The Trustee may rely on information provided to it and shall have no responsibility
to verify or ensure the accuracy of such information.

SECTION 2.07.     Replacement
Securities. If a mutilated Security is surrendered to the Registrar or if the Holder of a Security claims that the
Security has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement
Security if the requirements of Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code are met, such that the Holder (a) satisfies
the Company or the Trustee within a reasonable time after such Holder has notice of such loss, destruction or wrongful taking
and the Registrar does not register a transfer prior to receiving such notification, (b) makes such request to the Company
or Trustee prior to the Security being acquired by a protected purchaser as defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial
Code (a “protected purchaser”) and (c) satisfies any other reasonable requirements of the Trustee. Such Holder
must furnish an indemnity bond that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Company to protect the Company, the Trustee,
any Agent or any authenticating agent from any loss which any of them may suffer if a Security is replaced. The Company and the
Trustee may charge for their expenses in replacing a Security. If, after the delivery of such replacement Security, a protected
purchaser of the original Security in lieu of which such replacement Security was issued presents for payment or registration
such original Security, the Trustee shall be entitled to recover such replacement Security from the Person to whom it was delivered
or any Person taking therefrom, except a protected purchaser, and shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity
provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by the Trustee or the Company in connection therewith.
Every replacement Security is a contractual obligation of the Company.

 

In case any such mutilated,
destroyed, lost or wrongfully taken Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may,
instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security.

 

The provisions of this
Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement
or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or wrongfully taken Securities.

 

SECTION 2.08.     Outstanding
Securities. The Securities outstanding at any time are all the Securities authenticated by the Trustee except for those
canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Security effected by the
Registrar hereunder and those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding; provided, however, that in determining whether
the Holders of the requisite principal amount of outstanding Securities are present at a meeting of Holders of Securities for
quorum purposes or have consented to or voted in favor of any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver,
amendment or modification hereunder, Securities held for the account of the Company or any of its Affiliates shall be disregarded
and deemed not to be outstanding, except that in determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in making such a determination
or relying upon any such quorum, consent or vote, only Securities which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee actually knows to
be so owned shall be so disregarded.

 

    28

     

    

 

If a Security is replaced
pursuant to Section 2.07, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced
Security is held by a protected purchaser.

 

If the principal amount
of any Security is considered paid under Section 3.01, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue.

 

SECTION 2.09.     [Reserved.]

 

SECTION 2.10.     Temporary
Securities. Until Definitive Securities are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate
or cause to be authenticated temporary Securities. Temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of Definitive Securities,
but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Securities. Without unreasonable delay, the Company
shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Securities in exchange for temporary Securities. Until so exchanged,
temporary Securities shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as Definitive Securities.

 

SECTION 2.11.     Cancellation.
The Company or the Guarantors at any time may deliver Securities to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying
Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee,
upon written Company Order, shall cancel all Securities surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement
or cancellation. All canceled Securities held by the Trustee shall be disposed of in accordance with its customary practice (subject
to the record retention requirements of the Exchange Act). The Company may not issue new Securities to replace Securities that
have been paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

 

SECTION 2.12.     Defaulted
Interest. If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on the Securities, it shall pay the defaulted interest in
any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest on the defaulted interest, in each case at the rate provided in the Securities
and in the manner provided in Section 3.01. The Company may pay the defaulted interest to the Persons who are Holders on
a subsequent special record date. At least 15 days before any special record date, the Company (or the Trustee, in the name of
and at the expense of the Company) shall send to Holders a notice that states the special record date, the related payment date
and the amount of such interest to be paid. The Trustee will not have any duty to determine whether any defaulted interest is
payable or the amount thereof.

 

SECTION 2.13.     Persons
Deemed Owners. The Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent may treat the Person
in whose name any Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payments of principal of or
premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest on such Security and for all other purposes. None of the Company, the
Guarantors, the Trustee, any Agent or any authenticating agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

 

SECTION 2.14.     CUSIP
Numbers. The Company in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP,” “ISIN” or similar numbers (if
then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use such numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided
that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities
or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed
on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company will
promptly notify the Trustee in accordance with Section 11.02 of any change in any such number.

of Nabors Bermuda, holds by 11:00 a.m., Eastern time, on that date money deposited by or on behalf of the Company designated for
and sufficient to pay all principal, premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, and interest then due.

Registrar) in the continental United States where the Securities may be surrendered for exchange or registration of transfer as
provided in this Indenture, where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect to the Securities may be served, and where
the Securities may be presented or surrendered for payment. The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other
offices or agencies in the continental United States where Securities may be presented or surrendered for any and all such purposes
and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner
relieve the Company of its obligation under Section 2.03 to maintain an office or agency in The City of New York where any
Securities may be presented or surrendered for payment. The Company will give to the Trustee prompt written notice in accordance
with Section 11.02 of the location of any such office or agency and of any change of location thereof. In case the Company
shall fail to maintain any such office or agency or shall fail to give such notice of the location or of any change in the location
thereof, such surrenders, presentations and demands may be made and notices may be served at the office of the Trustee indicated

15 days after Nabors Bermuda is required to file the same with the SEC, of the annual reports and of the information, documents
and other reports (or copies of such portions of any of the foregoing as the SEC may from time to time by rules and regulations
prescribe) which Nabors Bermuda may be required to file with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of
the Exchange Act; or, if Nabors Bermuda is not required to file information, documents or reports pursuant to either of such sections,

(b)          Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Nabors Bermuda will be deemed to have delivered the reports referred to in Section 3.03(a) to the Trustee
and the Holders of the Securities if (i) Nabors Bermuda or any direct or indirect parent of Nabors Bermuda has filed such
reports with the SEC via the EDGAR (or successor) filing system within the applicable time periods after giving effect to any
extensions permitted by the SEC and such reports are publicly available or (ii) with respect to the holders of the Securities
only, Nabors Bermuda or such parent entity has made such reports available electronically and has notified the holders of the
Securities of such (including by posting to a non-public, password-protected website) pursuant to this Section 3.03. Delivery
of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only, and the Trustee’s receipt
thereof shall not constitute actual or constructive knowledge or notice of any information contained therein or determinable from
information contained therein, including Nabors Bermuda’s or the Company’s compliance with any covenants under this
Indenture (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officer’s Certificates). The Trustee shall not be
obligated to monitor or confirm, on a continuing basis or otherwise, Nabors Bermuda’s or the Company’s compliance
with this covenant and shall have no responsibility to determine whether any reports, information or documents have been filed
with the Commission via the EDGAR (or successor) filing system, made available electronically or posted on any website.

 

(c)          At
any time when neither Nabors Bermuda nor the Company is subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and the Securities
are not freely transferable under the Securities Act, upon the request of a Holder, Nabors Bermuda or the Company will promptly
furnish or cause to be furnished the information specified under Rule 144A(d)(4) of the Securities Act to such Holder,
or to a prospective purchaser of a Security designed by such Holder, in order to permit compliance with Rule 144A.

 

(d)          Delivery
of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee pursuant to this Section 3.03 is for informational purposes only,
and the Trustee’s receipt thereof shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable
from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants under this Indenture.

 

SECTION 3.04.    Compliance
Certificate. The Company and the Guarantors shall deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal
year of Nabors Bermuda, an Officer’s Certificate stating that in the course of performance by the signing Officer of his
duties as such Officer, he would normally obtain knowledge of the keeping, observing, performing and fulfilling by the Company
and the Guarantors, respectively, of their obligations under this Indenture, and further stating, as to the Officer signing such
statement, that to the best of his knowledge, each of the Company and the Guarantors has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled
each and every covenant contained in this Indenture and is not in default in the performance or observance of any of the terms,
provisions and conditions hereof (or, if a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred, describing all such Defaults or Events
of Default of which such Officer may have knowledge and what action the Company or the Guarantors, as the case may be, are taking
or proposes to take with respect thereto).

SECTION 3.05.     Corporate

necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence, under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation
or formation.

 

SECTION 3.06.     Waiver
of Stay, Extension or Usury Laws. Each of the Company and the Guarantors covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully
do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage
of, any stay or extension law or any usury law or other law, which would prohibit or forgive the Company or the Guarantors from
paying all or any portion of the principal of or premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest on the Securities as
contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or which may affect the covenants or the performance
of this Indenture; and (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) each of the Company and the Guarantors hereby expressly waives
all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein
granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

 

SECTION 3.07.     Limitation
on Liens. So long as any Securities are outstanding, Nabors Bermuda will not, nor will it permit any of its Subsidiaries
to, issue, assume, guarantee or suffer to exist any debt for money borrowed (“Debt”) if such Debt is secured by a
mortgage, pledge, security interest or lien (a “mortgage” or “mortgages”) upon any properties of Nabors
Bermuda or any of its Subsidiaries or upon any securities or indebtedness of any of its Subsidiaries (whether such properties,
securities or indebtedness is now owned or hereafter acquired) without in any such case effectively providing that the Securities
shall be secured equally and ratably with (or prior to) such Debt, except that the foregoing restrictions shall not apply to:

or improved, after the completion and commencement of commercial operation of such property, whichever is later) to secure or
provide for the payment of the purchase price or cost thereof; provided that in the case of such construction or improvement the
mortgages shall not apply to any property owned by Nabors Bermuda or any of its Subsidiaries before such construction or improvement
other than (1) unimproved real property on which the property so constructed, or the improvement, is located or (2) personal
property which is so improved;

 

(b)           mortgages
existing on the Issue Date, existing mortgages on property acquired (including mortgages on any property acquired from a Person

any corporation, partnership or other entity becomes a Subsidiary of Nabors Bermuda; provided that such mortgages shall only apply
to property owned by such corporation, partnership or other entity at the time it becomes a Subsidiary or that is acquired thereafter
other than from the Nabors Bermuda or another Subsidiary of Nabors Bermuda;

 

    32

     

    

 

(c)           mortgages
in favor of Nabors Bermuda or any of its Subsidiaries;

for taxes, assessments or other governmental charges that are not yet delinquent or which are being contested in good faith by
appropriate proceedings provided appropriate reserves required pursuant to GAAP have been made in respect thereof;

in favor of issuers of surety or performance bonds or letters of credit or bankers’ acceptances issued pursuant to the request
of and for the account of Nabors Bermuda or any of its Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of its business;

 

(i)            mortgages
consisting of encumbrances, easements or reservations of, or rights of others for, licenses, rights of way, sewers, electric lines,
telegraph and telephone lines and other similar purposes, or mortgages consisting of zoning or other restrictions as to the use
of real properties or mortgages incidental to the conduct of the business of Nabors Bermuda or any of its Subsidiaries or to the
ownership of its properties which do not materially adversely affect the value of said properties or materially impair their use

(j)            mortgages
arising by virtue of any statutory or common law provisions relating to bankers’ liens, rights of set-off or similar rights

(o)           any
extension, renewal or replacement (or successive extensions, renewals or replacements), in whole or in part, of any mortgage referred

not exceed the principal amount of Debt so secured at the time of such extension, renewal or replacement, and that such extension,
renewal or replacement shall be limited to all or a part of the property which secured the mortgage so extended, renewed or replaced
(plus improvements in such property).

 

In addition to the
foregoing, Nabors Bermuda and any of its Subsidiaries may, without securing the Securities, issue, assume or guarantee secured
Debt (including for the avoidance of doubt, any Credit Facilities) that, with certain other Debt described in the following sentence,

SECTION 3.08.     Payment
of Additional Amounts.

 

(a)            All
payments made by or on behalf of the Company or any Guarantor under or with respect to the Securities or any Guarantee, as applicable,
will be made without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future tax, duty, levy, impost, assessment
or other similar governmental charge, including any interest, additions to tax, or penalties applicable thereto (collectively,
 “Taxes”) unless such withholding or deduction is required by law. In the event that any such withholding or deduction
for, or on account of, any Taxes is levied by or on behalf of:

 

    34

     

    

 

(i)             Bermuda
or any other jurisdiction in which the Company or any Guarantor is incorporated or organized, has its place of central management
or central control or is otherwise engaged in business or resident for tax purposes or any political subdivision or taxing authority
thereof (other than the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof); or

 

(ii)            any
jurisdiction from or through which payment is made by or on behalf of the Company or any Guarantor (including, without limitation,
the jurisdiction of any Paying Agent) or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof (other than the United States or
any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof);

 

(each of clauses
(i) and (ii), a “Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction”), the Company or the relevant Guarantor, as the case may be, will
pay such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary so that the net amount received by each Holder
(or beneficial owner) of Securities will equal the amount that the Holder (or beneficial owner) would have received if the Taxes
had not been required to be withheld or deducted; provided that no Additional Amounts will be payable with respect to a payment
made to a Holder to the extent:

 

(1)            that
any Taxes would not have been so imposed but for the existence of any present or former connection between the Holder (or beneficial
owner of the Securities) and the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, other than any connection arising solely from the mere receipt
of the payment, acquisition, ownership or disposition of such Securities or the exercise or enforcement of rights under the Securities,
the Guarantees or this Indenture;

 

(2)            of
any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer or personal property Taxes imposed with respect to the Securities or any other
Taxes payable other than by withholding or deduction, except as described below or as otherwise provided in this Indenture;

 

(3)            that
any such Taxes would not have been imposed but for the presentation of the Securities, where presentation is required, for payment
on a date more than 30 days after the date on which the payment became due and payable or the date on which payment thereof is
duly provided for, whichever is later, except to the extent that the beneficiary or Holder thereof would have been entitled to
Additional Amounts had the Securities been presented for payment on any date during such 30-day period;

 

(4)            that
the Holder or beneficial owner of Securities would not be liable or subject to such withholding or deduction of Taxes but for
the failure to make a valid declaration of non-residence or other similar claim for exemption, if: (a) the making of the
declaration or claim is required or imposed by statute, treaty, regulation, ruling or administrative practice of the relevant
taxing authority as a precondition to an exemption from, or reduction in, the relevant Taxes; (b) at least 60 days prior
to the first payment with respect to which the Company or such Guarantor shall apply this clause (iv), the Company or such Guarantor
shall have notified all Holders in writing that they or any beneficial owners of the Securities shall be required to provide this
declaration or claim; and (c) the Holder or beneficial owner of Securities is legally eligible to provide such declaration
or claim;

 

    35

     

    

 

(5)            any
Taxes imposed under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code, any successor law or regulation implementing or complying with, or
introduced in order to conform to, such Sections, any agreement entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b)(1) of the Code,
any intergovernmental agreement entered into in connection with the implementation of such Sections of the Code or any fiscal
or regulatory legislation, rules or practices adopted pursuant to any such intergovernmental agreement;

 

(6)            any
Taxes imposed on overall net income or any branch profits Taxes;

 

(7)            that
a beneficiary or settlor with respect to a fiduciary, a member of a partnership or the beneficial owner of the payment would not
have been entitled to the Additional Amounts had the beneficiary, settlor, member or beneficial owner been the Holder of a Security
in the case of a Holder that is a fiduciary or partnership or a person other than the sole beneficial owner of any such payment;

 

(8)            or
any combination of the Taxes and/or withholdings or deductions described in the foregoing clauses (1) through (7).

 

(b)          The
Company and such Guarantor shall also (i) withhold or deduct such Taxes as required; (ii) remit the full amount of Taxes
deducted or withheld to the relevant taxing authority in accordance with all applicable laws; (iii) use reasonable efforts
to obtain from each relevant taxing authority imposing the Taxes certified copies of tax receipts evidencing the payment of any
Taxes deducted or withheld; and (iv) upon request, make available to the Holders of the Securities, within 60 days after
the date the payment of any Taxes deducted or withheld is due pursuant to applicable law, certified copies of Tax receipts evidencing
such payment by the Company or such Guarantor and, notwithstanding the Company’s or such Guarantor’s efforts to obtain
the receipts, if the same are not obtainable, other evidence of such payments. Each Holder and beneficial owner of the Securities
agrees that it shall, upon the request of an applicable withholding agent, provide an applicable IRS Form W-8 or W-9 to the
applicable withholding agent.

 

(c)           In
addition, the Company or any Guarantor will pay any stamp, issue, registration, documentary or other similar Taxes payable in
any Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction or the United States with respect to the creation, issue, offering, enforcement, redemption or
retirement of the Securities or Guarantees.

 

(d)          At
least 30 days prior to each date on which any payment under or with respect to the Securities is due and payable, if the Company
or any Guarantor becomes obligated to pay Additional Amounts with respect to such payment, the Company (or in respect of the Guarantees,
such Guarantor) shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating the fact that such Additional Amounts will
be payable, and the amounts so payable and will set forth such other information as is necessary to enable the Trustee or the
Paying Agent to pay such Additional Amounts to the Holders on the payment date.

 

    36

     

    

 

 

(e)          All
references in this Indenture to the payment of principal of and premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest (including
defaulted interest), if any, or any other amount payable on or with respect to any of the Securities shall be deemed to include
mention of the payment of Additional Amounts provided for in this Section 3.08 to the extent that, in such context, Additional
Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof pursuant to the provisions of this Section 3.08, and express mention
of the payment of Additional Amounts in those provisions in this Indenture shall not be construed as excluding Additional Amounts
where such express mention is not made (if applicable).

 

(f)           The
obligations of the Company and any Guarantor under this Section 3.08 shall survive the termination of this Indenture and
the payment of all amounts under or with respect to this Indenture and the Securities, and any transfer by a Holder or beneficial
owner of its Securities.

 

SECTION 3.09.     Limitations
on Sale and Lease-Back Transactions. So long as any Securities are outstanding, Nabors Bermuda will not, nor will it
permit any of its Subsidiaries to, enter into any Sale and Lease-Back Transaction, other than any Sale and Lease-Back Transaction:

 

(a)          entered
into within 360 days of the later of the acquisition or placing into service of the property subject thereto by Nabors Bermuda
or such Subsidiary;

 

(b)          involving
a lease of less than five years;

 

(c)          entered

(d)          between
Nabors Bermuda and/or one or more of its Subsidiaries;

 

(e)          as
to which Nabors Bermuda or such Subsidiary would be entitled to incur Debt secured by a mortgage on the property to be leased
in an amount equal to the Attributable Debt with respect to such Sale and Lease-Back Transaction without equally and ratably securing
the Securities (1) under clauses (a) through (n) of Section 3.07 or (2) under the last paragraph of Section 3.07;
or

 

(f)           as
to which Nabors Bermuda will apply an amount equal to the net proceeds from the sale of the property so leased to (1) the
retirement (other than any mandatory retirement), within 360 days of the effective date of any such Sale and Lease-Back Transaction,
of Securities or of Funded Debt of Nabors Bermuda or one of its Subsidiaries or (2) the purchase or construction of other
property, provided that such property is owned by Nabors Bermuda or one of its Subsidiaries free and clear of all mortgages.

 

    	 	37	 

     

    

 

SECTION 3.10.     Change
of Control Offer. Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, each Holder of Securities shall have
the right to require the Company to purchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof)
of the Holder’s Securities at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid
interest, if any, up to, but excluding, the date of purchase; provided, however, that if such date of purchase is after the taking
of a record of the Holders on a record date and on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, the accrued and unpaid interest
shall be payable to the Person in whose name the repurchased Securities are registered on such record date. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Company shall have no obligation to repurchase any Securities pursuant to this Section 3.10 to the extent
that the Company shall have exercised its right to redeem the Securities pursuant to Section 10.07.

 

For purposes of this
Section 3.10, the term “Change of Control” means the occurrence of any one of the following:

 

(a)          the
sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger, amalgamation or consolidation), in one or
a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the assets of Nabors Bermuda and its Subsidiaries taken as a
whole to any “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) other than to Nabors
Bermuda or one or more of its Subsidiaries or a combination thereof or a Person controlled by Nabors Bermuda or one or more of
its Subsidiaries or a combination thereof;

 

(b)          the
first day on which the majority of the members of the Board of Directors of Nabors Bermuda cease to be Continuing Directors; or

 

(c)          the
consummation of any transaction (including without limitation, any merger, amalgamation or consolidation) the result of which
is that any “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) (other than any Subsidiary
of Nabors Bermuda) becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act),
directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the outstanding Voting Stock of Nabors Bermuda, measured by voting power rather than
number of shares (excluding a redomestication of Nabors Bermuda).

 

Notwithstanding the
foregoing, a transaction shall not be deemed to involve a “Change of Control” under clause (b) above if (i) Nabors
Bermuda becomes a direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of a holding company and (ii)(A) the direct or indirect holders
of the Voting Stock of such holding company immediately following such transaction are substantially the same as the holders of
the Voting Stock of Nabors Bermuda immediately prior to such transaction or (B) immediately following such transaction no
 “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) (other than a holding company satisfying
the requirements of this sentence) is the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange
Act), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the outstanding Voting Stock of such holding company, measured by voting power
rather than number of shares.

 

    	 	38	 

     

    

 

For purposes of this
Section 3.10, the term Change of Control Triggering Event means the ratings of the Securities are lowered by at least two
of the three Rating Agencies and, immediately following such lowering, the Securities are not rated Investment Grade by at least
two of the three Rating Agencies in any case on any date during the period (the “Trigger Period”) commencing on the
date of the first public announcement by the Company or Nabors Bermuda of any Change of Control (or pending Change of Control)
and ending 60 days following consummation of such Change of Control (which 60-day period will be extended for so long as the rating
of the Securities is under publicly announced consideration for a possible downgrade as a result of the Change of Control by any
of the Rating Agencies); provided, however, that if the Securities are not rated by all three Rating Agencies, then a “Change
of Control Triggering Event” shall occur if the ratings of the Securities are lowered by at least one of the Rating Agencies
and, immediately following such lowering, the Securities are not rated Investment Grade by at least one of the Rating Agencies
in any case on any date during the Trigger Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Change of Control Triggering Event will be
deemed to have occurred in connection with any particular Change of Control unless and until such Change of Control has actually
been consummated.

 

Within 60 days following
the date upon which the Change of Control Triggering Event has occurred, or at the Company’s option, prior to any Change
of Control but after the public announcement of the transaction that constitutes or may constitute the Change of Control, except
to the extent that the Company shall have exercised its right to redeem the Securities pursuant to Section 10.07, the Company
shall send a notice (a “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder of Securities with a copy to the Trustee, which notice
will govern the terms of the Change of Control Offer, stating:

 

(1)            that
a Change of Control Triggering Event has occurred and that such Holder has the right to require the Company to purchase such Holder’s
Securities at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any,
to the date of purchase (subject to the right of holders of record on a record date to receive interest on the relevant Interest
Payment Date as provided in the first paragraph of this Section 3.10);

 

(2)            the
circumstances regarding such Change of Control Triggering Event;

 

(3)            the
purchase date (which shall be (i) no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is sent, if sent
after consummation of the Change of Control and (ii) on the date of the Change of Control, if such notice is sent prior to
consummation of the Change of Control, in each case, other than as may be required by law) (such date, the “Change of Control
Payment Date”); and

 

(4)            the
instructions that a Holder must follow in order to have its Securities purchased.

 

Holders of Securities
electing to have such Securities purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer must surrender their Securities with the form
entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of the Security completed, to the Paying Agent at the
address specified in the notice, or transfer their Securities to the Paying Agent by book-entry transfer pursuant to the Applicable
Procedures, prior to the close of business on the third Business Day prior to the Change of Control Payment Date.

 

    	 	39	 

     

    

 

On the Change of Control
Payment Date, all Securities purchased by the Company under this Section shall be delivered to the Trustee for cancellation,
and the Company shall pay the purchase price plus accrued and unpaid interest to the Holders entitled thereto.

 

The Company may make
a Change of Control Offer in advance of a Change of Control and the Change of Control Payment Date, and its Change of Control
Offer may be conditioned upon such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time
of making the Change of Control Offer.

 

If Holders of not
less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities validly tender and do not withdraw such Securities in
a Change of Control Offer and the Company, or any third party making a Change of Control Offer in lieu of the Company, as described
below, purchases all of the Securities validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Company will have the right, upon
not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following such purchase pursuant to the
Change of Control Offer described above, to redeem all of the Securities that remain outstanding following such purchase at a
redemption price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, up to, but excluding,
the date of redemption (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant
Interest Payment Date).

 

Any redemption pursuant
to this Section 3.10 shall be made, to the extent applicable, pursuant to the procedures set forth in Sections 10.01 through
10.06.

 

The Company shall
have no obligation to make a Change of Control Offer if a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise
in compliance with the requirements of this Section 3.10 for such an offer made by the Company, and such third party purchases
all Securities properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer.

 

The Company shall
comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act and any other securities
laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Securities pursuant to a Change of Control Offer. To the extent that
the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section 3.10, the Company shall comply with the applicable
securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations by virtue thereof.

 

SECTION 3.11.     Limitations
on Subsidiary Debt.

 

(a)          For
so long as any Securities are outstanding, Nabors Bermuda will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to incur, directly or indirectly,
any Debt other than:

 

(i)             existing
Debt of a Subsidiary of Nabors Bermuda outstanding on the date of issuance of the Securities (other than Debt described in clauses
(vii)(A), (viii) or (xiv) of this Section 3.11(a));

 

(ii)            intercompany
loans and advances between or among Nabors Bermuda and its Subsidiaries; provided that (a) if the obligor on such intercompany
loan or advance is a Guarantor, then such Debt must be expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all obligations
with respect to the Guarantee of such Guarantor; and (b)(i) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Capital Stock that results
in any such Debt being held by a Person other than Nabors Bermuda or a Subsidiary of Nabors Bermuda and (ii) any sale or
other transfer of any such Debt to a Person that is not Nabors Bermuda or a Subsidiary of Nabors Bermuda, will be deemed, in each
case, to constitute an incurrence of such Debt by such Subsidiary that was not permitted by this clause (2); provided further
that (x) notwithstanding the foregoing, the Guarantors may owe such Debt to Nabors Bermuda or any such Subsidiary up to an
aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding under this clause (ii) of $100,000,000 that is not subject to such
subordination terms and (y) that any such standalone subordination or intercreditor agreement or such other arrangement shall
permit payments in respect of such intercompany indebtedness as long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

 

    	 	40	 

     

    

 

(iii)           Debt
under any Interest Rate Protection Agreements or any Currency Rate Protection Agreements;

 

(iv)           Debt

and (ii) arising from the honoring by a bank or other Person of a check, draft or similar instrument inadvertently drawing
against insufficient funds;

 

(v)            Debt
of a Person existing at the time such Person becomes a Subsidiary of Nabors Bermuda or is merged, consolidated or amalgamated
with or into Nabors Bermuda or any Subsidiary of Nabors Bermuda; provided that any such Debt was not incurred in contemplation
of any such transaction;

 

(vi)           Debt
of any Guarantor that is subordinate in right of payment to the Guarantee of such Guarantor;

 

(vii)          (A) Debt
in an aggregate amount not to exceed $500.0 million (i) represented by the Securities and the Guarantees and (ii) other
Debt having the same obligors as the Securities and the Guarantees and issued by the Company or Nabors Bermuda and (B) Junior
Guaranteed Debt, including in each case any extension, renewal, refunding, replacement or refinancing (collectively, a “refinancing”)
of such Debt incurred under this clause (vii), provided that after giving effect to any such refinancing, the principal
amount of Debt incurred pursuant to clause (vii) (A) in the aggregate and at any time outstanding does not exceed $500.0
million and provided further that, for the avoidance of doubt, any refinancing of Debt incurred pursuant to this clause
(vii)(A) has the same obligors as the Securities and the Guarantees and such Debt is issued by the Company or Nabors Bermuda;

 

(viii)         Debt
incurred pursuant to Credit Facilities in an aggregate amount at any one time outstanding under this clause (viii) not to
exceed an amount equal to (A) the greater of (i) $1.70 billion and (ii) 10.0% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets,
less (B) the total Aggregate Debt outstanding at the time of such incurrence (without double counting for Aggregate Debt
incurred under this clause (viii)), measured at the time of incurrence of any such Debt and after giving effect to such incurrence,
less (C) outstanding Debt incurred under clause (vii)(A) of this Section  3.11.

 

    	 	41	 

     

    

 

(ix)           Debt
in respect of current accounts payable and accrued expenses incurred in the ordinary course of business;

 

(x)            Debt,
which may include purchase money Debt, capital lease or finance lease obligations or mortgage financings, incurred to finance
the purchase, installation, construction, design or improvement, or capital lease or finance lease of assets (including equipment)
or property (real or personal) (whether through the direct purchase of assets or the capital stock of any person owning such assets)
and related taxes and transaction costs provided that (i) such Debt when incurred shall not exceed 85% of the purchase price
of the asset(s) or person financed and all fees, premium, costs and expenses relating thereto, including attorney and legal,
accounting, expert, and professional advisor fees and expenses; and (ii) no such Debt shall be refinanced for a principal
amount in excess of the principal balance outstanding thereon at the time of such refinancing plus all fees, premium, costs and
expenses relating thereto, including attorney and legal, accounting, expert, and professional advisor fees and expenses;

 

(xi)           Debt
under performance guaranties, performance bonds and letters of credit issued in the ordinary course of business and serving as
a financial or performance guaranty (other than as a guaranty of Debt for borrowed money);

 

(xii)          Debt
under documentary credits issued in connection with the purchase of goods in the ordinary course of business;

 

(xiii)         Debt
in respect of any Permitted Accounts Receivables Sales Facility; and

 

(xiv)         any
refinancing of Debt incurred pursuant to the foregoing clauses (i), (v) and this clause (xiv), provided, that (i) such
refinancing Debt will not exceed the principal amount of Debt so refinanced plus an amount necessary to pay fees and expenses,
including premiums, related to such refinancing (ii) the scheduled maturity date thereof is not shortened (except to the
extent such shortened maturity date is subsequent to the Stated Maturity and (iii) such refinancing Debt and any guarantees
thereof are incurred solely by the obligors and guarantors, if any, of the Debt so refinanced).

 

Nabors Bermuda will
not permit any of the Guarantors to incur, directly or indirectly, any Debt that is subordinated or junior in right of payment
to other Debt of such Guarantor and senior in any respect in right of payment to the Guarantees of the Securities.

 

Debt permitted by
this Section 3.11(a) need not be permitted solely by reference to one provision permitting such Debt but may be permitted
in part by one such provision and in part by one or more other provisions of this Section 3.11(a) permitting such Debt.
In the event that an item of Debt meets the criteria of more than one of the types of Debt described in this Section 3.11(a),
the Company will be permitted, in its sole discretion, to divide, classify or reclassify all or a portion of such item of Debt
and only be required to include the amount of such Debt in one of such clauses. For the avoidance of doubt, the Receivables Purchase,
the Receivables Sale Agreement, and related transaction documents do not constitute Debt.

 

    	 	42	 

     

    

 

(b)          This
covenant shall not apply during such time as the Securities are rated Investment Grade by at least two of the three Rating Agencies
and no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture. The Trustee shall not have any obligation
to monitor the ratings of the Securities.

 

SECTION 3.12.     Limitations
on Asset Transfers.

 

Nabors Bermuda shall
not permit any of the Lower Tier Notes Guarantors or any of their respective Subsidiaries to directly or indirectly convey, sell,
lease, assign, sell and leaseback, transfer (including by way of investment) or otherwise dispose of any drilling related fixed
assets, including drilling rigs, drilling-related services assets or related assets (including, without limitation, any Capital
Stock of any Subsidiary or any interest in a joint venture that owns such assets), whether now owned or hereafter acquired (each
a “Rig Disposition”), to (i) Nabors Bermuda, (ii) any Subsidiary of Nabors Bermuda that is not Nabors Drilling
Technologies USA, Inc., Nabors Lux 2, Nabors Drilling Canada Limited or Nabors International Management Limited (together,
the “Original Lower Tier Notes Guarantors”) or (iii) any joint venture directly held by Nabors Bermuda or a Subsidiary
or parent (direct or indirect) of Nabors Bermuda, excluding any joint venture directly or indirectly held by any Original Lower
Tier Notes Guarantor or a Subsidiary of such Guarantor, unless such Rig Disposition is to (x) an Original Lower Tier Notes
Guarantor, (y) a Subsidiary of an Original Lower Tier Notes Guarantor or (z) a Subsidiary of Nabors Bermuda that is
not a Guarantor of any Existing Notes; provided that prior to or contemporaneous with such Rig Disposition pursuant to this clause
(z), such Subsidiary executes and delivers to the Trustee a supplemental indenture pursuant to which such Subsidiary shall become
a Guarantor under this Indenture and the related Guarantee shall be of the same priority as the existing Guarantees of the Lower
Tier Notes Guarantors; provided, further that Rig Dispositions to Transitory Subsidiary Owners shall not be prohibited for so
long as such Subsidiary is a Transitory Subsidiary Owner and no Subsidiary that is a Transitory Subsidiary Owner will be required
to become a Guarantor for so long as such Subsidiary is a Transitory Subsidiary Owner. In addition, Nabors Bermuda shall not permit
any of the Lower Tier Notes Guarantors and any of their respective Subsidiaries to make any Rig Disposition to any direct or indirect
parent of Nabors Bermuda.

 

Net proceeds of any
Rig Dispositions to Persons that are not Affiliates of Nabors Bermuda (other than joint ventures directly held by Nabors Bermuda
or a Subsidiary or parent (direct or indirect) of Nabors Bermuda, excluding any joint venture directly or indirectly held by any
Original Lower Tier Notes Guarantor or a Subsidiary of such Guarantor) received by the Lower Tier Notes Guarantors or any of their
Subsidiaries during any twelve month period which are not retained or used in the business or operations of the Original Lower
Tier Notes Guarantors or their Subsidiaries (such amounts collectively, “Excess Rig Proceeds”), shall not exceed a
total amount of $50.0 million in the aggregate in any twelve month period; provided that Excess Rig Proceeds may be transferred
to Nabors Bermuda or any Subsidiary of Nabors Bermuda on a temporary basis for tax or other reasons in the ordinary course of
such Subsidiary’s business for a period of up to twenty Business Days and the full amount of such Excess Rig Proceeds shall
be returned to an Original Lower Tier Notes Guarantors or any of their Subsidiaries no later than twenty Business Days following
such transfer of such Excess Rig Proceeds.

 

    	 	43	 

     

    

 

SECTION 3.13.     Future
Guarantors.

 

After the Issue Date,
if any Subsidiary of Nabors Bermuda (other than the Company and certain entities incorporated or established in Luxembourg as
provided in Section 9.04) or any direct or indirect parent of Nabors Bermuda that is not then a Guarantor guarantees the
Existing Notes then, such Subsidiary or such direct or indirect parent of Nabors Bermuda, as the case may be, within twenty Business
Days of the date that such indebtedness has been guaranteed, shall execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture
pursuant to which such Subsidiary or such direct or indirect parent of Nabors Bermuda, as the case may be, shall become a Guarantor
under this Indenture and provide for a Guarantee by such Subsidiary or such direct or indirect parent of Nabors Bermuda, as the
case may be, on the same terms and conditions as those set forth herein (including, without limitation, the same priority as the
existing Guarantees of a Guarantor that is not a Lower Tier Notes Guarantor).

Guarantees of the Securities by any of the Guarantors ceases to be in full force and effect or become unenforceable or invalid
or are declared null and void (other than in accordance with the terms of such Guarantees) or a Guarantor denies or disaffirms
its obligations under such Guarantee.

 

The Trustee shall
not be deemed to know of a Default or Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee
has actual knowledge of such Default or Event of Default with specific reference to such Default, the Securities and this Indenture.
No duty imposed upon the Trustee in this Indenture shall be applicable with respect to any Default or Event of Default of which
the Trustee is not deemed to have notice. No duty imposed upon the Trustee in this Indenture shall be applicable with respect
to any Default or Event of Default of which the Trustee shall not have received notice in accordance with the terms of this Indenture.

 

When a Default is
cured, or when an Event of Default is deemed cured pursuant to Section 5.04, such Default, or Event of Default, as the case
may be, ceases.

 

SECTION 5.02.     Acceleration.
If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (iv) or (v) of Section 5.01) occurs
and is continuing with respect to the Securities, the Trustee by notice to the Company and the Guarantors, or the Holders of at
least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Securities by written notice to the Company, the Guarantors and
the Trustee, may declare the principal of, premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on all
then outstanding Securities to be due and payable immediately. Upon any such declaration the amounts due and payable on the Securities,
as determined in accordance with the final paragraph of this Section 5.02, shall be due and payable immediately. If an Event
of Default specified in clause (iv) or (v) of Section 5.01 occurs, the principal of, premium, if any, Additional
Amounts, if any, and interest on all Securities then outstanding shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable
without any declaration, notice or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder.

 

At any time after
such an acceleration of the Securities has occurred and before a judgment for payment of the money due has been obtained by the
Trustee as hereinafter in this Article V provided, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding
Securities, by written notice to the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such acceleration and its
consequences if:

 

    	 	46	 

     

    

 

 

(1)           the
Company or the Guarantors have paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay:

  

(A)           the
principal of and premium, if any, on any Securities which have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and
Additional Amounts, if any, and any interest thereon then due at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities or in
this Indenture,

 

(B)            to
the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue interest and overdue Additional Amounts, if any, at
the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities or in this Indenture, and

 

(C)            all
sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the compensation, reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee,
its agents and counsel; and

 

(2)            all
Events of Default, other than the non-payment of the principal of Securities which have become due solely by such declaration
of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.04.

 

No such rescission
shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

 

If the Maturity of
the Securities is accelerated pursuant to this Section 5.02, 100% of the principal amount thereof and premium, if any, shall
become due and payable plus Additional Amounts, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest to the date of payment.

 

SECTION 5.03.     Other
Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the
payment of principal of, premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest on the Securities or to enforce the performance
of any provision of the Securities, the related Guarantees or this Indenture.

 

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

 

SECTION 5.04.     Waiver
of Existing Defaults. Subject to Sections 5.07 and 8.02, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of
the Securities then outstanding, by notice to the Trustee, may waive an existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences
(including waivers obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for such Securities or a solicitation of consents
in respect of such Securities, provided that in each case such offer or solicitation is made to all Holders of the Securities
then outstanding on equal terms), except (1) a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of
or premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest on the Securities or (2) a continuing Default in respect of a
provision that under Section 8.02 cannot be amended without the consent of each Holder affected. Upon any such waiver, such
Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose
of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

  

    	 	47	 

     

    

 

SECTION 5.05.     Control
by Majority. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may direct
the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power
conferred on it hereunder. The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with applicable law or this
Indenture that the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders (it being understood that the Trustee
does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not any such direction unduly prejudices the rights of such Holders),
or that may involve the Trustee in personal liability; provided, however, that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper
by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction. Prior to taking any action hereunder, the Trustee shall receive indemnification
from such Holders satisfactory to it against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action subject to the
Trustee’s duty to act with the required standard of care during a default.

 

SECTION 5.06.     Limitations
on Suits. Subject to Section 5.07, a Holder of Securities may pursue a remedy with respect to this Indenture (including
the Guarantees) or the Securities only if:

 

(i)            such
Holder gives to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default;

 

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

 

(iii)          such
Holder or Holders furnish to the Trustee indemnity and security satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense;

 

(iv)          the
Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the furnishing of such indemnity; and

 

(v)           during
such 60-day period the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding do not give the
Trustee a direction inconsistent with the request.

 

A Holder may not use
this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder (it being understood
that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not such action or forbearances are unduly prejudicial
to such Holders or obtain a preference or priority over another Holder).

 

SECTION 5.07.     Rights
of Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of a
Security to receive payment of principal of and premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, and interest on the Securities, on

of any such payment on or after such respective dates, is absolute and unconditional and shall not be impaired or affected without
the consent of such Holder or obtain a preference or priority over another Holder.

SECTION 5.08.     Collection
Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default specified in clause (i) or (ii) of Section 5.01 occurs and is
continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company
and the Guarantors (i) for the amount of principal of and premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, and interest remaining
unpaid on any Securities and (ii) interest on overdue principal, premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, and, to the

costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable and documented compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of
the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

  

SECTION 5.09.     Trustee
May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents
and to take such actions, including participating as a member, voting or otherwise, of any committee of creditors, as may be necessary

any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any Custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby
authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making
of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the compensation, reasonable expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.07.
To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel,
and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.07 out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any
reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money,
securities and other properties which the Holders of the Securities may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation
or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee
to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition
affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any
Holder in any such proceeding.

First: to the Trustee, its agents
and attorneys for amounts due under Section 6.07 hereof, including payment of all compensation, expenses and liabilities
incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and the costs and expenses of collection;

 

Second: to Holders for amounts

Amounts, if any, and interest, respectively; and

 

Third: to the Company and the
Guarantors.

 

    	 	49

to this Article V. At least 15 days before such record date, the Trustee shall send to each Holder and the Company a notice
that states the record date, the payment date and amount to be paid.

  

SECTION 5.11.     Undertaking
for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee
for any action taken or omitted by it as a trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in
the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including
reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the
claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 5.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder
pursuant to Section 5.07, or a suit by a Holder or Holders of more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities
then outstanding.

TRUSTEE

 

SECTION 6.01.     Duties
of Trustee.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

(ii)            in
the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness
of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of
this Indenture. However, the Trustee shall examine such certificates and opinions to determine whether or not, on their face,
they appear to conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical
calculations or other facts stated therein).

 

(c)            The
Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful
misconduct, except that:

 

(i)            this
paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section 6.01;

 

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

 

    	 	50	 

     

    

 

(iii)          The
Trustee shall not be liable for any acts or omissions, except for such losses, damages or expenses which have been finally adjudicated
by a court of competent jurisdiction to have directly resulted from the Trustee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct;
and

 

(iv)          the
Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction
received by it pursuant to Section 5.05 hereof.

 

(d)           Whether
or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraphs
(a), (b) and (c) of this Section 6.01.

 

(e)            No
provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or incur any liability. The Trustee may
refuse to perform any duty or exercise any right or power unless it receives indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability
or expense.

 

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

 

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

 

SECTION 6.02.     Rights
of Trustee.

 

(a)            The
Trustee may rely conclusively on and shall be protected in action or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate,
statement, direction, consent, order, bond, note or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed
or presented by the proper Person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in any such paper or document.

 

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

 

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

 

(d)           The
Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within
its rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture.

 

    	 	51	 

     

    

 

(e)            Unless

be sufficient if signed by an Officer of the Company or such Guarantor, as the case may be.

 

(f)            No
provision of this Indenture will require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or incur any liability. The Trustee is under
no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under this Indenture at the request of any Holders, unless such Holder has
offered to the Trustee indemnity or security satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense that might be incurred
by it in connection with its compliance with such request.

 

(g)           The
Trustee is not required to give any bond or surety with respect to the performance of its duties or the exercise of its powers
under this Indenture.

 

(h)           The
Trustee shall not be responsible or liable for any action taken or omitted by it in good faith at the direction of the Holders
of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Securities as to the time, method and place of conducting any proceedings
for any remedy available to the Trustee or the exercising of any power conferred by this Indenture.

 

(i)            The
Trustee’s immunities and protections from liability and its right to indemnification in connection with the performance
of its duties under this Indenture shall extend and be enforceable by the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder and shall
extend to the Trustee’s officers, directors, agents, attorneys and employees. Such immunities and protections and right
to indemnity, together with the Trustee’s right to compensation, shall survive the Trustee’s resignation or removal,
the discharge of this Indenture and final payment of the Securities.

 

(j)            The
permissive right of the Trustee to take the actions permitted by this Indenture shall not be construed as an obligation or duty
to do so.

 

(k)            Except
for information provided by the Trustee concerning the Trustee, the Trustee shall have no responsibility for any information in
any disclosure material distributed with respect to the Securities, and the Trustee shall have no responsibility for compliance
with any U.S. Federal or State securities or employee benefit plan laws in connection with the Securities.

 

(l)            The
Trustee may request that the Company or any Guarantor, as the case may be, deliver an Officer’s Certificate setting forth
the names of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture,
which Officer’s Certificate may be signed by any person authorized to sign an Officer’s Certificate, including any
person specified as so authorized in any such certificate previously delivered and not superseded.

 

(m)          The
Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically and expressly set forth in this Indenture.
These duties shall be deemed purely ministerial in nature, and the Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of such
duties, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Trustee.

 

SECTION 6.03.     Individual
Rights of Trustee. The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Securities
and may otherwise deal with the Company, the Guarantors or any of their Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were
not the Trustee. Any Agent may do the same with like rights. However, the Trustee is subject to Sections 6.10 and 6.11.

 

    	 	52	 

     

    

 

SECTION 6.04.     Trustee’s
Disclaimer. The Trustee makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture, the Securities or
the Guarantees, it shall not be accountable for any money paid to the Company or upon the Company’s direction under any
provision hereof, it shall not be responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Paying Agent other than
the Trustee and it shall not be responsible for any statement or recital herein or any statement in the Securities or any other
document in connection with the issuance of the Securities or pursuant to this Indenture other than its certificate of authentication.

 

SECTION 6.05.     Notice
of Defaults. If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and it is actually known to a Responsible Officer
of the Trustee, the Trustee shall send to the Holders of such Securities a notice of such Default or Event of Default within 90
days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of or premium, if any, Additional
Amounts, if any, or interest on any Security, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as it in good faith determines
that withholding the notice is in the interests of Holders.

 

SECTION 6.06.     [Reserved].

 

SECTION 6.07.     Compensation
and Indemnity. The Company and the Guarantors jointly and severally agree to pay to the Trustee such compensation as
the Company and the Trustee shall from time to time agree in writing. The Company shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for
all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, in addition to the
compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances
of the Trustee’s agents and counsel. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of
a trustee of an express trust. The Company and the Guarantors jointly and severally agree to reimburse the Trustee upon request
for all reasonable and documented disbursements, advances and expenses incurred by it. Such expenses shall include the reasonable
compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel.

 

The Company and the
Guarantors jointly and severally agree to indemnify, defend and protect the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee and their agents,
employees, officers and directors for and to hold them harmless against any and all loss, liability, damage, claim, or expense
(including reasonable and documented fees and expenses of counsel and taxes, other than taxes based upon, measured by or determined
by the income of the Trustee) and court costs incurred by it arising out of or in connection with this Indenture or the administration
of this trust, including the reasonable and documented costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture (including, without limitation,
this provision) against the Company and of defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Company, the Guarantors,
any Holder or any other Person), except as set forth in the next paragraph. The Trustee shall notify the Company and the Guarantors
promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity; however, failure to give such notice shall not relieve the Company or the
Guarantors of their obligations. The Company shall defend the claim and the Trustee shall cooperate in the defense. The Trustee
may have separate counsel, and the Company and the Guarantors shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. The
Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

 

    	 	53	 

     

    

 

Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, neither the Company nor the Guarantors shall be obligated to reimburse any fee or expense or indemnify
against any loss, liability, damage, claim or expense incurred by the Trustee through its own gross negligence or willful misconduct
(as found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment).

 

To secure the payment
obligations of the Company and the Guarantors in this Section 6.07, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities
on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal of and premium, if any,
and Additional Amounts, if any, and interest on the Securities. Such lien shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this
Indenture.

 

When the Trustee incurs
expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 5.01(iv) or (v) occurs, the expenses
and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

 

SECTION 6.08.     Replacement
of Trustee. A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee shall become effective only
upon the successor Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 6.08.

 

The Trustee may resign
and be discharged from the trust hereby created by so notifying the Company and the Guarantors. The Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the then outstanding Securities may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Company in writing.
The Company may remove the Trustee if:

 

(i)            the
Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.10;

 

(ii)            the
Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for relief is entered with respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy
Law;

 

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

 

(iv)          the
Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

 

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

 

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

  

    	 	54	 

     

    

 

If the Trustee fails
to comply with Section 6.10, any Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and
the appointment of a successor Trustee.

 

A successor Trustee
shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company and the Guarantors. Thereupon,
the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights,
powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall send a notice of its succession to Holders.
The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the lien
provided for in Section 6.07. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.08, the obligations
of the Company and the Guarantors under Section 6.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

 

SECTION 6.09.     Successor
Trustee by Merger, etc. Subject to Section 6.10, if the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers
all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another business entity, such entity without any further act shall
be the successor Trustee; provided, however, that in the case of a transfer of all or substantially all of its corporate trust
business to another corporation, the transferee corporation expressly assumes all of the Trustee’s liabilities hereunder.

 

In case any Securities
shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation
to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated; and in case at that
time any of the Securities shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Securities either
in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates
shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Securities or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee
shall have.

 

SECTION 6.10.     Eligibility;
Disqualification. There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be a corporation organized and doing
business under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia and authorized under such
laws to exercise corporate trust power, shall be subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State (or the District of
Columbia) authority and shall have, or be a Subsidiary of a bank or bank holding company having, a combined capital and surplus
of at least $50 million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition.

of Company’s and Guarantors’ Obligations.

 

(a)            Satisfaction
and Discharge of Indenture. This Indenture shall cease to be of further effect with respect to the Securities (except as provided
in the last paragraph of this Section 7.01(a)), and the Trustee, on demand of the Company, shall execute proper instruments
acknowledging the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, when:

 

(1)            either

 

    	 	55	 

     

    

 

(A)           all
outstanding Securities theretofore authenticated and issued (other than destroyed, lost or wrongfully taken Securities that have
been replaced or paid) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

  

(B)           all
outstanding Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation:

become due and payable,

 

(ii)           will
become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year, or

 

(iii)          will
be scheduled for redemption by their terms within one year, and the Company, in the case of clause (i) or (ii) above
or this clause (iii), has deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as funds (immediately available to the Holders
in the case of clause (i)) in trust for such purpose an amount of cash or, in the case of clause (ii) or this clause (iii),
U.S. Government Obligations or a combination thereof which, together with earnings thereon, will be sufficient, in the case of
clause (ii) or this clause (iii), in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed
in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities for
principal, premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, and interest to the date of such deposit (in the case of Securities which
have become due and payable) or to the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be;

 

(2)            the
Company has paid all other sums payable by it hereunder with respect the Securities; and

 

(3)            the
Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture with respect to the Securities have been complied with, together with an Opinion of Counsel to the
same effect.

 

However, the Company’s
obligations in Sections 2.03, 2.06, 2.07, 3.02 and 7.01, the Company’s and the Guarantors’ obligations in Sections
6.07, 6.08 and 7.04 and the Trustee’s and Paying Agent’s obligations in Section 7.03 shall survive the satisfaction
and discharge of this Indenture until the Securities are no longer outstanding. Thereafter, only the Company’s and the Guarantors’
obligations in Section 6.07 and the Trustee’s and Paying Agent’s obligations in Section 7.03 shall survive
with respect to the Securities.

 

(b)            Legal
Defeasance. The Company and the Guarantors may, subject as provided herein, terminate by legal defeasance all of their obligations
under this Indenture with respect to the Securities if:

 

(i)            the
Company has irrevocably deposited or caused to be irrevocably deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for the purpose
of making the following payments dedicated solely to the benefit of the Holders of such Securities (A) cash in an amount,
or (B) U.S. Government Obligations, or (C) a combination thereof, sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized
firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay, without
consideration of the reinvestment of any such amounts and after payment of all taxes or other charges or assessments in respect
thereof payable by the Trustee, the principal of and premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any and interest on all Securities
on each date that such principal, premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest is due and payable and to pay all other
sums payable by it hereunder with respect to the Securities; provided that the Trustee shall have been irrevocably instructed
to apply such money or the proceeds of such U.S. Government Obligations to the payment of said principal, premium, if any, Additional
Amounts, if any, and interest with respect to the Securities as the same shall become due;

 

    	 	56	 

     

    

 

(ii)           the
Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that all conditions precedent to such legal defeasance
have been complied with, and an Opinion of Counsel to the same effect;

 

(iii)          no
Default or Event of Default with respect to the Securities shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or,
insofar as clauses (iv) and (v) of Section 5.01 are concerned, at any time during the period ending on the 91st
day after the date of such deposit (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until the expiration
of such period);

 

(iv)          the
Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel from nationally recognized counsel acceptable to the Trustee
to the effect that, based on a ruling of the Internal Revenue Service or a change in U.S. Federal income tax law occurring after
the date of this Indenture, the Holders of Securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. Federal income tax purposes
as a result of the Company’s exercise of its option under this Section 7.01(b) and will be subject to U.S. Federal
income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such option had not been
exercised;

 

(v)           such
deposit and legal defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other agreement or
instrument to which the Company or any Guarantor is a party or by which it is bound; and

 

(vi)          the
Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that after the passage of 91 days following the
deposit, the trust funds will not be subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar
laws affecting creditors’ rights generally.

 

In such event, payment
of the Securities may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default, Article IX and the other provisions of this Indenture
shall cease to be of further effect (except as provided in the next succeeding paragraph), and the Trustee, on demand of the Company,
shall execute proper instruments acknowledging such legal defeasance.

 

    57

     

    

 

However, the Company’s
obligations in Sections 2.03, 2.06, 2.07, 3.02 and 7.01, the Company’s and the Guarantors’ obligations in Sections
6.07, 6.08 and 7.04 and the Trustee’s and Paying Agent’s obligations in Section 7.03 shall survive such legal
defeasance with respect to the Securities until the Securities are no longer outstanding. Thereafter, only the Company’s
and the Guarantors’ obligations in Section 6.07 and the Trustee’s and Paying Agent’s obligations in Section 7.03
shall survive with respect to the Securities.

 

(c)          Covenant
Defeasance. The Company and the Guarantors may, subject as provided herein, be released from their respective obligations to
comply with, and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation, set forth in Sections 3.07, 3.08, 3.09
and 4.01 and in Article IX, and such omission to comply with any of Sections 3.07, 3.08, 3.09 and 4.01 and Article IX
shall not constitute an Event of Default with respect to the Securities under Section 5.01 (“Covenant Defeasance”),
with the remainder of this Indenture and such Securities unaffected thereby if:

 

(i)            the
Company has irrevocably deposited or caused to be irrevocably deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for the purpose
of making the following payments dedicated solely to the benefit of the Holders of the Securities (A) cash in an amount, or
(B) U.S. Government Obligations, or (C) a combination thereof, sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized
firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay, without consideration
of the reinvestment of any such amounts and after payment of all taxes or other charges or assessments in respect thereof payable
by the Trustee, the principal of and premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any and interest on all Securities on each date that
such principal, premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest is due and payable and to pay all other sums payable by
it hereunder with respect to the Securities; provided that the Trustee shall have been irrevocably instructed to apply such money
and/or the proceeds of such U.S. Government Obligations to the payment of said principal, premium, if any, Additional Amounts,
if any, and interest with respect to the Securities as the same shall become due;

 

(ii)           the
Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that all conditions precedent to the Covenant Defeasance
contemplated by this provision have been complied with, and an Opinion of Counsel to the same effect;

 

(iii)          no
Default or Event of Default with respect to the Securities shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or,
insofar as clauses (iv) and (v) of Section 5.01 are concerned, at any time during the period ending on the 91st
day after the date of such deposit (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until the expiration
of such period);

 

(iv)          the
Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel from nationally recognized counsel acceptable to the Trustee
to the effect that the Holders of Securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. Federal income tax purposes as a
result of the Company’s exercise of its option under this Section 7.01(c) and will be subject to U.S. Federal income
tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such option had not been exercised;

 

    58

     

    

 

(v)           such
Covenant Defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other agreement or instrument
to which the Company or any Guarantor is a party or by which it is bound; and

 

(vi)          the
Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that after the passage of 91 days following the
deposit, the trust funds will not be subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar
laws affecting creditors’ rights generally.

 

(d)          In
order to have money available on a payment date to pay principal of or premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest
on the Securities, the U.S. Government Obligations shall be payable as to principal or interest on or before such payment date
in such amounts as will provide the necessary money. U.S. Government Obligations shall not be callable at the issuer’s option.

 

(e)          The
Company may exercise its option under Section 7.01(b) notwithstanding its prior exercise of its Covenant Defeasance option
under Section 7.01(c).

 

SECTION 7.02.            Application
of Trust Money. The Trustee or a trustee satisfactory to the Trustee and the Company shall hold in trust money or U.S.
Government Obligations deposited with it pursuant to Section 7.01. It shall apply the deposited money and the money from
U.S. Government Obligations through the Paying Agent and in accordance with this Indenture to the payment of principal of and
premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, and interest on Securities with respect to which the deposit was made.

 

The Company will pay
and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or non-callable U.S. Government
Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 7.01 hereof or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than
any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Securities.

 

SECTION 7.03.            Repayment
to Company. The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall promptly pay to the Company upon written request any excess money
or securities held by them at any time. Subject to the requirements of any applicable abandoned property laws, the Trustee and
the Paying Agent shall pay to the Company upon written request any money held by them for the payment of principal of, premium,
if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest that remains unclaimed for two years after the date upon which such payment shall
have become due; provided, however, that the Company shall have either caused notice of such payment to be sent to each Holder
entitled thereto no less than 30 days prior to such repayment or within such period shall have published such notice in a financial
newspaper of widespread circulation published in The City of New York. After payment to the Company, Holders entitled to the money
must look to the Company for payment as unsecured general creditors unless an applicable abandoned property law designates another
Person, and all liability of the Trustee and the Paying Agent with respect to such money shall cease.

 

    59

     

    

 

SECTION 7.04.            Reinstatement.
If the Trustee or the Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 7.01
by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining
or otherwise prohibiting such application, the obligations of the Company and the Guarantors under this Indenture and the Securities
shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 7.01 until such time as the Trustee
or the Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 7.01;
provided, however, that if the Company or the Guarantors have made any payment of principal of or interest on the Securities because
of the reinstatement of their obligations, the Company or such Guarantor, as the case may be, shall be subrogated to the rights
of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or
the Paying Agent.

 

ARTICLE VIII

AMENDMENTS

 

SECTION 8.01.            Without
Consent of Holders. The Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture or any of
the Securities or waive any provision hereof or thereof without the consent of any Holder:

 

(i)            to
convey, transfer, assign, mortgage or pledge to the Trustee as security for the Securities any property or assets;

 

(ii)           to
evidence the succession of another Person to the Company or the Guarantors, or successive successions, and the assumption by the
successor Person of the covenants, agreements and obligations of the Company or a Guarantor pursuant to Section 4.01 or 9.03;

 

(iii)          to
add to the covenants of the Company or the Guarantors such further covenants, restrictions, conditions or provisions as the Company
or the Guarantors and the Trustee shall consider to be for the protection of the Holders of Securities, to surrender any right
or power herein conferred upon the Company or the Guarantors, and to make the occurrence, or the occurrence and continuance, of
a default in any such additional covenants, restrictions, conditions or provisions an Event of Default with respect to the Securities
permitting the enforcement of all or any of the several remedies provided in this Indenture, provided that in respect of any such
additional covenant, restriction, condition or provision such amendment or supplement may provide for a particular period of grace
after default (which period may be shorter or longer than that allowed in the case of other defaults) or may provide for an immediate
enforcement upon such an Event of Default or may limit the remedies available to the Trustee upon such an Event of Default or may
limit the right of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities to waive such an Event of Default;

 

(iv)          to
cure any ambiguity or omission or to correct or supplement any provision contained herein or in any supplemental indenture which
may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision contained herein or in any supplemental indenture, provided that no such
action shall adversely affect the interests of the Holders of the Securities;

 

    60

     

    

 

(v)           to
provide for uncertificated Securities in addition to or in place of certificated Securities, provided that the uncertificated Securities
are issued in registered form for purposes of Section 163(f) of the Code;

 

(vi)          to
provide for the issuance of Additional Securities and related Guarantees in accordance with this Indenture;

 

(vii)         to
effect any provision of this Indenture;

 

(viii)        to
release the Guarantee of any Guarantor in accordance with Section 9.05 of this Indenture;

 

(ix)          to
conform the text of this Indenture or the Securities to the “Description of the New Notes” set forth in the Offering
Memorandum to the extent such provision in the “Description of the New Notes” was intended to be a verbatim, or substantially
verbatim, recitation of such provision if this Indenture or the Securities (which intent may be evidenced by an Officer’s
Certificate to such effect); or

 

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

 

Upon the request of
the Company and the Guarantors and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 8.06, the Trustee shall
join with the Company and the Guarantors in the execution of any supplemental indenture entered into to effect any such amendment,
supplement or waiver.

 

SECTION 8.02.            With
Consent of Holders. Except as provided in Section 8.01 or below in this Section 8.02, the Company, the Guarantors
and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture or the Securities with the consent (including consents obtained in connection
with a tender offer or exchange offer for such Securities or a solicitation of consents in respect of such Securities, provided
that in each case such offer or solicitation is made to all Holders of the Securities then outstanding on equal terms) of the
Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding affected thereby.

 

The Holders of a majority
in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may waive compliance in a particular instance by the Company or
the Guarantors with any provision of this Indenture or the Securities (including waivers obtained in connection with a tender offer
or exchange offer for such Securities or a solicitation of consents in respect of such Securities, provided that in each case such
offer or solicitation is made to all Holders of the Securities then outstanding on equal terms).

 

Upon the request of
the Company and the Guarantors and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence of the consent of the Holders as aforesaid, and
upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 8.06, the Trustee shall join with the Company and the Guarantors
in the execution of any supplemental indenture entered into to effect any such amendment, supplement or waiver. After an amendment,
supplement or waiver under this Section 8.02 becomes effective, the Company shall send to the Holders of the Securities affected
thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Company to send such notice, or any
defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amendment, supplement or waiver.

 

    61

     

    

 

It shall not be necessary
for the consent of the Holders under this Section 8.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement
or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

 

Without the consent
of each Holder affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 8.02 may not:

 

(i)            extend
the final maturity of the principal of any of the Securities;

 

(ii)           reduce
the principal amount of any of the Securities;

 

(iii)          reduce
the rate or extend the time of payment of interest, including defaulted interest, or Additional Amounts, if any, on any of the
Securities;

 

(iv)          reduce
any amount payable on redemption of any of the Securities (other than as a result of the shortening of the required notice period
for redemption);

 

(v)           change
the currency in which the principal of or premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest on any of the Securities is
payable;

 

(vi)          impair
the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment of principal of or premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any,
or interest on any Security pursuant to Sections 5.07 and 5.08, except as limited by Section 5.06;

 

(vii)         change
the ranking of the Securities or the Guarantees thereof;

 

(viii)        make
any change in the percentage of principal amount of the Securities necessary to waive compliance with or to modify certain provisions
of this Indenture pursuant to Section 5.04 or 5.07 or this clause of this Section 8.02; or

 

(ix)          waive
a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of or premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest,
including defaulted interest, on the Securities.

 

The right of any Holder
to participate in any consent required or sought pursuant to any provision of this Indenture (and the obligation of the Company
to obtain any such consent otherwise required from such Holder) may be subject to the requirement that such Holder shall have been
the Holder of record of the Securities as of a record date fixed by the Company in accordance with Section 8.04 of this Indenture.

 

SECTION 8.03.            [Reserved].

 

SECTION 8.04.            Revocation
and Effect of Consents. A consent to an amendment, a supplement or a waiver by a Holder is a continuing consent by
the Holder and every subsequent Holder of a Security or portion of a Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s
Security, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Security. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke
the consent as to its Security or portion of a Security if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation at any time prior
to (but not after) the date the Trustee receives an Officer’s Certificate certifying that the Holders of the requisite aggregate
principal amount of Securities have consented (and not theretofore revoked such consent) to the amendment, supplement or waiver.

 

    62

     

    

 

The Company may, but
shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to consent to any amendment, supplement
or waiver or to take any other action with respect to the Securities under this Indenture. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding
the provisions of the immediately preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at the close of business on such record date
(or their duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to consent to such amendment, supplement or waiver
or to revoke any consent previously given, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date, and for this
purpose the Securities then outstanding shall be computed as of such record date. No consent shall be valid or effective for more
than 90 days after such record date unless consents from Holders of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities required hereunder
for such amendment, supplement or waiver to be effective shall have also been given and not revoked within such 90-day period.

 

After an amendment,
supplement or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder, unless it is of the type described in any of clauses (i) through
(viii) of Section 8.02. In such case, the amendment, supplement or waiver shall bind each Holder who has consented to
it and every subsequent Holder that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Security.

 

SECTION 8.05.            Notation
on or Exchange of Securities. If an amendment or supplement changes the terms of a Security, the Trustee may require
the Holder of the Security to deliver it to the Trustee. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation on the Security regarding
the changed terms and return it to the Holder. Alternatively, if the Company or the Trustee so determines, the Company in exchange
for the Security shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Security that reflects the changed terms. Failure to make
the appropriate notation or to issue a new Security shall not affect the validity of such amendment or supplement.

 

SECTION 8.06.            Trustee
to Sign Amendments, etc. The Trustee shall sign any supplemental indenture authorized pursuant to this Article VIII
if the supplemental indenture does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. If it does,
the Trustee may, but need not, sign it. In signing or refusing to sign such supplemental indenture, the Trustee shall receive,
and subject to Section 6.01, shall be fully protected in conclusively relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel and an Officer’s
Certificate, as conclusive evidence that all conditions precedent to such supplemental indenture have been complied with, that
such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture, that it is not inconsistent herewith, and that it will
be valid and binding upon the Company and the Guarantors in accordance with its terms.

 

    63

     

    

 

ARTICLE IX

GUARANTEES OF SECURITIES

 

SECTION 9.01.            Unconditional
Guarantees.

 

(a)          For
value received, each of the Guarantors hereby fully, irrevocably, unconditionally and absolutely guarantees to the Holders and
to the Trustee the due and punctual payment of the principal of and premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, and interest on
the Securities and all other amounts due and payable under this Indenture and the Securities by the Company (including, without
limitation, all costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and disbursements) incurred by the Trustee or the Holders in
connection with the enforcement of this Indenture, the Securities and the Guarantees) (collectively, the “Indenture Obligations”),
when and as such principal, premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, and interest and such other amounts shall become due and
payable, whether at the Stated Maturity, upon redemption or by declaration of acceleration or otherwise, according to the terms
of the Securities and this Indenture. The guarantees by the Guarantors set forth in this Article IX are referred to herein
as the “Guarantees.” Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor’s liability shall extend
to all amounts that constitute part of the Indenture Obligations and would be owed by the Company under this Indenture and the
Securities but for the fact that they are unenforceable, reduced, limited, impaired, suspended or not allowable due to the existence
of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving the Company.

 

(b)          Failing
payment when due of any amount guaranteed pursuant to the Guarantees, for whatever reason, the Guarantors will be obligated to
pay the same immediately to the Trustee, without set-off or counterclaim or other reduction whatsoever (whether for taxes, withholding
or otherwise). The Guarantees of the Upper Tier Notes Guarantors and Nabors Bermuda are intended to be general, unsecured, senior
obligations of such Guarantors and to rank pari passu in right of payment with all indebtedness of such Guarantor that is
not, by its terms, expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Guarantees of such Guarantor. The Guarantees of the Lower
Tier Notes Guarantors will be unsecured obligations and will be subordinate in right of payment to guarantees by the Lower Tier
Notes Guarantors of Senior Guaranteed Debt. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be full, irrevocable,
unconditional and absolute, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the obligations and liabilities of any
other obligor with respect to the Securities, the Guarantees or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same,
any waiver or consent by any Holder with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof with respect to the same, the recovery of
any judgment against the Company, or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or
defense of such Guarantor.

 

Each Guarantor hereby
agrees that in the event of a default in payment of the principal of or premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest
on the Securities or any other amounts payable under this Indenture and such Securities by the Company, whether at the Stated Maturity,
upon redemption or by declaration of acceleration or otherwise, legal proceedings may be instituted by the Trustee on behalf of
the Holders or, subject to Section 5.06, by the Holders, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Indenture, directly
against such Guarantor to enforce the Guarantees without first proceeding against the Company, subject to the provisions of the
Subordination Agreement.

 

    64

     

    

 

(c)          To
the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the obligations of each Guarantor under this Article IX shall be as aforesaid
full, irrevocable, unconditional and absolute and except as set forth in this Article IX shall not be impaired, modified,
discharged, released or limited by any occurrence or condition whatsoever, including, without limitation, (i) any compromise,
settlement, release, waiver, renewal, extension, indulgence or modification of, or any change in, any of the obligations and liabilities
of any other obligor with respect to the Securities or this Indenture, (ii) any impairment, modification, release or limitation
of the liability of the Company, any Guarantor or any of their respective estates in bankruptcy, or any remedy for the enforcement
thereof, resulting from the operation of any present or future provision of any applicable Bankruptcy Law, or other statute or
from the decision of any court, (iii) the assertion or exercise by the Company, any Guarantor or the Trustee of any rights
or remedies under any of the Securities or this Indenture or its delay in or failure to assert or exercise any such rights or remedies,
(iv) the assignment or the purported assignment of any property as security for any of the Securities, including all or any
part of the rights of the Company or any Guarantor under this Indenture, (v) the extension of the time for payment by the
Company or any Guarantor of any payments or other sums or any part thereof owing or payable under any of the terms and provisions
of any of the Securities or this Indenture or of the time for performance by the Company or any Guarantor of any other obligations
under or arising out of any such terms and provisions or the extension or the renewal of any thereof, (vi) the modification
or amendment (whether material or otherwise) of any duty, agreement or obligation set forth in this Indenture of any other obligor
with respect to the Securities, (vii) the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, sale or other disposition of
all or substantially all of the assets, marshaling of assets and liabilities, receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, assignment
for the benefit of creditors, reorganization, arrangement, composition or readjustment of, or other similar proceeding affecting,
any of the Company or any Guarantor or any of its assets, or the disaffirmance of any of the Securities, the Guarantees or this
Indenture in any such proceeding, (viii) the release or discharge of the Company or any Guarantor from the performance or
observance of any agreement, covenant, term or condition contained in any of such instruments by operation of law, (ix) the
unenforceability of any of the obligations of any of the other obligors under the Securities, the Guarantees or this Indenture,
(x) any change in the name, business, capital structure, corporate existence, or ownership of the Company or any Guarantor,
or (xi) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a legal or equitable discharge
of, a surety or any Guarantor.

 

(d)          Each
Guarantor hereby (i) waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, notice of acceptance, filing of claims with a court
in the event of the merger, amalgamation, insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company or any Guarantor, and all demands and notices
whatsoever, (ii) acknowledges that any agreement, instrument or document evidencing the Guarantees may be transferred and
that the benefit of its obligations hereunder shall extend to each holder of any agreement, instrument or document evidencing the
Guarantees without notice to them and (iii) covenants that its Guarantees will not be discharged except by complete performance
of the Guarantees or of the obligations guaranteed thereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that if at any time all or any part of
any payment theretofore applied by any Person to the Guarantees is, or must be, rescinded or returned for any reason whatsoever,
including, without limitation, the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of such Guarantor, the Guarantees shall, to the extent
that such payment is or must be rescinded or returned, be deemed to have continued in existence notwithstanding such application,
and the Guarantees shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, as though such application had not been
made.

 

    65

     

    

 

(e)          Each
Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of the Holders and the Trustee against the Company in respect of any amounts paid by
such Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture; provided, however, that such Guarantor shall not be entitled to enforce
or to receive any payments arising out of, or based upon, such right of subrogation with respect to any of the Securities until
all of the Securities and the Guarantees thereof shall have been paid in full or discharged.

 

(f)           No
failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Trustee or the Holders, any right, power, privilege or remedy
under this Article IX and the Guarantees shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any
rights, power, privilege or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other rights, powers,
privileges or remedies. The rights and remedies herein provided for are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies
provided in law or equity. Nothing contained in this Article IX shall limit the right of the Trustee or the Holders to take
any action to accelerate the Maturity of the Securities pursuant to Article V or to pursue any rights or remedies hereunder
or under applicable law.

 

SECTION 9.02.            Execution
and Delivery of Notation of Guarantees. To further evidence the Guarantees, each Guarantor hereby agrees that a notation
of such Guarantees may be endorsed on each Security authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and that such notation shall be
executed by either manual or facsimile signature of an Officer of such Guarantor.

 

Each Guarantor hereby
agrees that its Guarantees shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Security a notation
of the Guarantees.

 

If an Officer of any
Guarantor whose signature is on this Indenture or a Security no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates
such Security or at any time thereafter, such Guarantor’s guarantee of such Security shall be valid nevertheless.

 

The delivery of any
Security by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Guarantees set forth
in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors.

 

SECTION 9.03.            Guarantors
May Consolidate, etc., on Certain Terms. (a) A Guarantor may consolidate, merge or enter into a scheme
of arrangement qualifying as an amalgamation with any Person or sell, lease, convey, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially
all of its assets to any Person and (b) the Capital Stock of a Guarantor may be sold or otherwise disposed of to another
Person; provided, however, that in the case of the consolidation, merger or scheme or arrangement qualifying as an amalgamation
or sale, lease, conveyance, transfer or disposal of all or substantially all of the assets of such Guarantor or the sale or other
disposition of the Capital Stock of a Guarantor, if such other Person is not the Company or a Guarantor, such Guarantor’s
obligations under its Guarantee must be expressly assumed by such other Person, except in connection with a transaction in which
the Guarantee of such Guarantor would be released as provided in Section 9.05; provided, further, for the avoidance
of doubt, the release provisions in Section 9.05 shall not apply to any such sale, transfer or other disposition described
in this Section 9.03 to Nabors Bermuda or any Affiliate of Nabors Bermuda.

 

    66

     

    

 

 

SECTION 9.04.          Luxembourg:
Guarantee Limitation. The guarantee granted by any Guarantor which is incorporated and established in the Grand-Duchy
of Luxembourg (a "Luxembourg Guarantor") under this this Article IX shall be limited at any time to an aggregate
amount not exceeding the higher of: 99% of such Luxembourg Guarantor's capitaux propres (as referred to in article 34 of
the Luxembourg law dated 19 December 2002 on the commercial register and annual accounts, as amended (the "2002 Law"),
and as implemented by the Grand-Ducal regulation dated 18 December 2015 setting out the form and the content of the presentation
of the balance sheet and profit and loss account (the "Regulation")) determined as at the date on which a demand
is made under the guarantee, increased by the amount of any Intra-Group Liabilities; and 99% of such Luxembourg Guarantor's capitaux
propres (as referred to in article 34 of the 2002 Law) determined as at the date of this Agreement, increased by the amount
of any Intra-Group Liabilities. The amount of the capitaux propres under this this Article IX shall be determined
by the Trustee acting in its sole commercially reasonable discretion and shall be adjusted (by derogation to the rules contained
in the 2002 Law and the Regulation) to take into account the fair value rather than book value of the assets of such Luxembourg
Guarantor.

 

For the purpose
of this Clause, "Intra-Group Liabilities" shall mean any amounts owed by such Luxembourg Guarantor to any other member
of the group and that have not been financed (directly or indirectly) by any amounts raised in relation to the Securities. The
above limitation shall not apply (a) in respect of any amounts due by a direct or indirect subsidiary of that Luxembourg Guarantor
in relation to the Securities and (b) in respect of any amounts due by any person which is not a direct or indirect subsidiary
of that Luxembourg Guarantor in relation to the Securities and which have been on-lent to or made available by whatever means,
directly or indirectly, to that Luxembourg Guarantor or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries.

 

SECTION 9.05.          Releases.

 

(a)            The
Guarantee of a Guarantor (other than, in the case of clause (iv) below, the Guarantee of Nabors Bermuda) will be automatically
released with respect to the Securities:

 

(i)            upon
the sale or other disposition (including by way of consolidation, merger or scheme or arrangement qualifying as an amalgamation)
of a Guarantor, including the sale or disposition of Capital Stock of a Guarantor, following which such Guarantor is no longer
a Subsidiary of Nabors Bermuda,

 

(ii)           the
sale or disposition of all or substantially all the assets (including by way of consolidation, merger or scheme or arrangement
qualifying as an amalgamation) of a Guarantor,

 

(iii)          if
the Company exercises its legal defeasance option or its covenant defeasance option with respect to the Securities or if the Company’s
obligations under this Indenture are satisfied and discharged in accordance with Article VII with respect to the Securities;
or

 

(iv)          if
the Securities are rated Investment Grade by at least two of the three Rating Agencies and no Default or Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing under this Indenture;

 

    67

     

    

 

provided,
however, that in the case of clauses (i) and (ii) above, such sale or other disposition is made to a Person other
than Nabors Bermuda or one of its Affiliates and such sale or disposition is otherwise permitted by this Indenture.

 

(b)           At
the request of the Company and upon delivery of an Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel, the Trustee shall execute
and deliver an appropriate instrument evidencing the release of a Guarantor pursuant to this Section 9.05.

 

SECTION 9.06.          Subordination
Agreement. On the Issue Date, the Lower Tier Note Guarantors, the Trustee, Citibank N.A., and HSBC Bank Canada will
enter into (including by way of joinder) the Subordination Agreement with respect to the Securities. In the event of (i) any
amendment, supplement, modification, extension, renewal, restatement or refunding of Senior Guaranteed Debt, (ii) the replacement,
refunding or refinancing of any Senior Guaranteed Debt with new Senior Guaranteed Debt or (iii) the Lower Tier Note Guarantors

REDEMPTION

 

SECTION 10.01.        Notices
to Trustee. If the Company elects to redeem the Securities pursuant to the redemption provisions of Section 10.07,
it shall furnish to the Trustee, at least five days before notice of such redemption is to be given pursuant to Section 10.03
(unless a shorter period is acceptable to the Trustee), an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the Redemption Date, the
principal amount of such Securities to be redeemed, the redemption price (or the method of calculating the redemption price) and,
if the redemption of such Securities is subject to any condition precedent, each such condition precedent.

 

SECTION 10.02.        Selection
of Securities to be Redeemed. If less than all of the Securities are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall select the Securities
to be redeemed on a pro rata basis (or, in the case of Securities represented by a Global Security, in accordance with the Applicable
Procedures).

 

Securities and portions
of them selected shall be in minimum amounts of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. Except as provided in
the preceding sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Securities called for redemption also apply to portions of Securities
called for redemption.

 

SECTION 10.03.        Notices
to Holders.

 

(a)           At
least 20 days (or in the case of a redemption pursuant to Section 10.08, 10 days) but not more than 75 days before a Redemption
Date, the Company shall give in conformity with Section 11.02 a notice of redemption to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed.
The notice shall identify the Securities to be redeemed (including CUSIP, ISIN or similar numbers, if any) and shall state:

 

(i)            the
Redemption Date;

 

    68

     

    

 

(ii)           the
redemption price (or the method of calculating the redemption price);

 

(iii)           if
any Security is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Security to be redeemed and that, after the
Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Security, a new Security or Securities in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion
will be issued;

 

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

 

(v)           that
Securities called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent at the address specified in such notice to collect the
redemption price;

 

(vi)          that
unless the Company defaults in making the redemption payment, interest on Securities called for redemption ceases to accrue on
and after the Redemption Date and the only remaining right of the Holders is to receive payment of the redemption price upon surrender
to the Paying Agent of the Securities;

 

(vii)         the
paragraph of the Securities and/or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Securities are being redeemed;

 

(viii)        that
no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the
Securities;

 

(ix)           the
aggregate principal amount of Securities being redeemed; and

 

(x)           any
condition precedent to such redemption.

 

If any of the Securities
to be redeemed is in the form of a Global Security, then the Company shall modify such notice to the extent necessary to accord
with the procedures of the Depositary applicable to redemptions.

 

(b)           At
the Company’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice required in Section 10.03(a) in the Company’s name;
provided, however, that the Company shall deliver to the Trustee, at least 15 days prior to the requested delivery date (unless
the Trustee consents in writing to a shorter period), an Officer’s Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice
and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in Section 10.03(a).

 

SECTION 10.04.        Effect
of Notices of Redemption. Notice of redemption may be given and any redemption of Securities may, at the Company’s
discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including the consummation of a financing transaction or equity issuance,
the proceeds of which are to be used to fund such redemption; provided that, if notice of redemption is given pursuant to Section 10.03,
and such notice does not include a condition precedent to be satisfied in order for the Company to be obligated to redeem the
Securities, the Securities called for redemption shall become due and payable on the Redemption Date at the redemption price.
Upon surrender to the Paying Agent of Securities called for redemption, such Securities shall be paid out at the redemption price,
plus accrued and unpaid interest up to, but excluding, the Redemption Date; provided, however, that if the Redemption Date is
after the taking of a record of the Holders on a record date and on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, the accrued
and unpaid interest shall be payable to the Person in whose name the redeemed Securities are registered on such record date. Failure
to give notice or any defect in the notice to any Holder shall not affect the validity of the notice to any other Holder.

 

    69

     

    

 

SECTION 10.05.        Deposit
of Redemption Price. At or prior to 11:00 a.m. New York City time on the Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit
with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent immediately available funds sufficient to pay the redemption price of all Securities
to be redeemed on that date, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon up to, but excluding, the Redemption Date. The Trustee or
the Paying Agent shall return to the Company any money not required for that purpose less the expenses of the Trustee as provided
herein.

 

If the Company complies
with the preceding paragraph, interest on the Securities or portions thereof to be redeemed (whether or not such Securities are
presented for payment) will cease to accrue on the applicable Redemption Date. If any Security called for redemption shall not
be so paid upon surrender because of the failure of the Company to comply with the preceding paragraph, then interest will be paid
on the unpaid principal, premium, if any, and Additional Amounts, if any, from the Redemption Date until such principal, premium,
if any, and Additional Amounts, if any, are paid and, to the extent lawful, on any interest not paid on such unpaid principal,
in each case at the rate provided in the Securities and in Section 3.01.

 

SECTION 10.06.        Securities
Redeemed in Part. Upon surrender of a Security that is redeemed in part, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall
authenticate for the Holder, at the expense of the Company, a new Security equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion
of the Security surrendered.

 

SECTION 10.07.        Optional
Redemption.

 

(a)            On
or after December 1, 2021, the Company may redeem the Securities, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at the
redemption prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed) set forth below, plus accrued
and unpaid interest, if any, on the Securities, to, but excluding, the applicable Redemption Date, if redeemed during the twelve-month
period beginning on December 1 of the years indicated below:

 

	Year	 	Percentage	 
	2021	 	 	104.500	%
	2022	 	 	102.250	%
	2023 and thereafter	 	 	100.000	%

 

(b)            At
any time and from time to time prior to December 1, 2021, upon giving notice as provided in Section 10.03 of this Indenture,
the Company may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities with an aggregate amount less than or equal
to the cash proceeds less any underwriting spread paid in cash of one or more Equity Offerings, at a redemption price equal to
109.000% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to (but not including) the Redemption Date;
provided, however, that, at least 50% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Securities (excluding any Additional Securities
of such series) must remain outstanding immediately after each such redemption; provided, further, that such redemption shall
occur within 180 days after the date on which any such Equity Offering is consummated.

 

    70

     

    

 

(c)            At
any time prior to December 1, 2021, the Company may redeem the Securities, in whole at any time and in part from time to time,
upon giving notice as provided in Section 10.03 of this Indenture, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal
amount of the Securities to be redeemed, plus the Applicable Premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding,
the Redemption Date.

 

Notice
of any redemption may be given and any redemption of Securities may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more
conditions precedent and any redemption pursuant to this Section 10.07 shall be made, to the extent applicable, pursuant
to the provisions of Sections 10.01 through 10.06.

 

SECTION 10.08.        Tax
Redemption.

 

(a)           The
Securities will be subject to redemption by the Company, in whole but not in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the outstanding
principal amount of the Securities, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the applicable Redemption Date
(including any Additional Amounts) at any time prior to their maturity if, due to a Change in Tax Law (as defined below):

 

(i)            the
Company or a Guarantor in accordance with the terms of the Securities or a Guarantee has, or would, become obligated to pay, on
the next date on which any amount would be payable with respect to the Securities or a Guarantee, any Additional Amounts to the
Holders of the Securities; and

 

(ii)           such
obligation cannot be avoided by such Guarantor or the Company taking reasonable measures available to it (including, in the case
of a payment by a Guarantor, taking reasonable measures to have the Company or another Guarantor make the relevant payment if this
would avoid the obligation to pay Additional Amounts).

 

(b)           In
such case, the Company may redeem the Securities upon not less than 10 days nor more than 75 days’ notice provided, that,
(i) no such notice of redemption shall be given earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Company or such
Guarantor, as the case may be, would be obligated to pay any such Additional Amounts in respect of the Securities or applicable
Guarantee and (ii) at the time such notice is given, such obligation to pay such Additional Amounts remains in effect. The
Company’s right to redeem the Securities pursuant to this Section 10.08 shall continue as long as the Company or a Guarantor
is obligated to pay such Additional Amounts, notwithstanding that the Company or such Guarantor, as the case may be, shall have
made payments of Additional Amounts. Prior to the giving of any such notice of redemption, the Company must deliver to the Trustee:
(1) an Officer’s Certificate stating that the Company is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a statement
of facts showing that the conditions precedent to the right of the Company so to redeem have occurred; and (2) an Opinion
of Counsel or an independent accountant of recognized standing, selected by the Company or any Guarantor, as applicable, with respect
to tax matters of the applicable Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction to the effect that the Company or such Guarantor has, or would, become
obligated to pay such Additional Amounts as a result of such Change in Tax Law and the Trustee shall be entitled to accept such
Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel as sufficient evidence of the satisfaction of the conditions precedent in which
event they shall be conclusive and binding on the holders of the Securities. For the purposes of this Section 10.08, “Change
in Tax Law” shall mean any changes in, or amendment to, any law of a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction (including any regulations
or rulings promulgated thereunder and including, for this purpose, any treaty entered into by the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction)
or any amendment to or change in the application or official interpretation (including judicial or administrative interpretation)
of such law, which change or amendment becomes effective or, in the case of an official interpretation, is announced, on or after
the date of this Indenture (or, if later, on or after the date on which such Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction became a Relevant Taxing
Jurisdiction).

 

    71

     

    

 

Any redemption pursuant
to this Section 10.08 shall be made, to the extent applicable, pursuant to the provisions of Sections 10.01 through 10.06.

 

The foregoing provisions
will apply mutatis mutandis to any successor person, after such successor person becomes a party to this Indenture, with respect
to a Change in Tax Law occurring after the time such successor person becomes a party to this Indenture.

court in respect of any such action, suit or proceeding, for itself and with respect to its properties, revenues and assets. Such
appointment shall be irrevocable unless and until the appointment of a successor authorized agent for such purpose, and such successor’s
acceptance of such appointment, shall have occurred. Each of the Foreign Guarantor agrees to take any and all actions, including
the filing of any and all documents and instruments, that may be necessary to continue such appointment in full force and effect

or any other matter under or arising out of or in connection with this Indenture or the Securities, each Foreign Guarantor, to
the maximum extent permitted by law, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, and agrees not to plead or claim, any such
immunity and consents to such relief and enforcement.

 

SECTION 11.12.        Judgment

a result of any judgment or order being given or made and expressed and paid in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”)
other than U.S. dollars and as a result of any variation as between (a) the rate of exchange at which the U.S. dollar amount
is converted into the Judgment Currency for the purpose of such judgment or order and (b) the spot rate of exchange in The
City of New York at which the Trustee or such Holder on the date of payment of such judgment or order is able to purchase U.S.
dollars with the amount of the Judgment Currency actually received by the Trustee or such Holder. The foregoing indemnity shall
constitute a separate and independent obligation of the Foreign Guarantors and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding
any such judgment or order as aforesaid. The term “spot rate of exchange” shall include any premiums and costs of
exchange payable in connection with the purchase of, or conversion into, U.S. dollars.

9.00% SENIOR PRIORITY GUARANTEED NOTE
DUE 2025

 

This Security is one
of a duly authorized issue of 9.00% Senior Priority Guaranteed Notes due 2025 (the “Securities”) of Nabors Industries, Inc.,
a Delaware corporation (the “Company”).

 

1.     Interest.
The Company promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Security at a rate of 9.00% per annum until Maturity. The
Company will pay interest semi-annually on February 1 and August 1 of each year (each an “Interest Payment Date”),
beginning     , or if any such day is not a Business Day, on
the next succeeding Business Day. Interest on this Security will accrue from the most recent Interest Payment Date on which interest
has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from          ;
provided that if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Security is authenticated between a record
date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding
Interest Payment Date. Further, to the extent lawful, the Company shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding
under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal, premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, and interest (without regard to any
applicable grace period), from time to time on demand at the rate then in effect on the Securities. Interest will be computed on
the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

 

2.            Method
of Payment. The Company will pay interest on this Security (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered Holders
of this Security at the close of business on the record date next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if this Security is
canceled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date. The Holder must surrender this Security to a Paying
Agent to collect payments of principal and premium, if any. The Company will pay the principal of and premium, if any, and Additional
Amounts, if any, and interest on this Security in money of the United States of America that at the time of payment is legal tender
for payment of public and private debts. Payments in respect of the Securities represented by a Global Security (including principal,
premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, and interest) will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the
accounts specified by The Depository Trust Company. The Company will make all payments in respect of a certificated Security (including
principal, premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, and interest) at the office or agency of the Paying Agent maintained for
such purpose or, at its option, by mailing a check to the registered address of each Holder thereof; provided, however, that payments
on a certificated Security will be made by wire transfer to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the payee with a bank in the United
States if such Holder elects payment by wire transfer by giving written notice to the Trustee or the Paying Agent to such effect
designating such account no later than 30 days immediately preceding the relevant due date for payment (or such other date as the
Trustee may accept in its discretion).

have if it were not the Trustee.

 

14.            No
Recourse Against Others. A director, officer, employee or stockholder of the Company or the Guarantors, as such, shall not
have any liability for any obligations of the Company or the Guarantors under this Security, the Guarantees or the Indenture or
for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting this Security
waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of this Security.

SECTION 1.
The Additional Trustee by its signature below becomes a Trustee under the Subordination Agreement with the same force and

SECTION 3.
This Trustee Joinder may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of
which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Trustee Joinder
shall become effective when Agent shall have received a counterpart of this Trustee Joinder that bears the signature of the Additional
Trustee and the Agent. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,”
and words of like import in or relating to this Trustee Joinder shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, deliveries or
the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually

Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision
in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties
hereto shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions
the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

 

SECTION 7.

Agreement.
