(g)  Easements, rights‐of‐way, servitudes, permits, surface leases and other rights in respect of surface operations that do not materially interfere with the operation of the Assets;

(h)  All other liens, charges, encumbrances, contracts, agreements, instruments, obligations, defects and irregularities affecting the Interests which individually or in the aggregate are not such as to interfere materially with the operation, value or use of any of the Interests or wells listed in Exhibit “B”, do not materially prevent Purchaser from receiving the proceeds of production from any of the Interests listed in Exhibit “B”, do not materially reduce the interest of Seller with respect to all oil and gas produced from any Interest (or a well located thereon) listed in Exhibit “B” below the "Net Revenue Interest" or "NRI" set forth in Exhibit “B” for such Interest and do not materially increase the portion of the costs and expenses relating to any Interest (or a well located thereon) listed in Exhibit “B” that Seller are obligated to pay above the "Working Interest" or "WI" set forth in Exhibit “B” for such Interest;

(i)  All rights reserved to or vested in any governmental, statutory or public authority to control or regulate any of the Interests in any manner, and all applicable laws, rules and orders of governmental authority;

(k)  The terms and conditions of all leases, agreements, orders, instruments and documents expressly described in or referred to in Exhibits “B” and “A-1” thorough “A-5”.

3.4          Notice of Title Defect.  Purchaser shall notify Seller in writing, as soon as reasonably practicable after Purchaser has knowledge thereof, and in any event by October 18, 2018, of any matter ("Title Defect") that would cause title to any of the Interests listed in Exhibit “B” as to Assets located in Texas and “A-1” through “A-5” as to Assets located in Texas (collectively, the “Texas Properties”) not to be Marketable Title together with (i) a description of the title defect and Purchaser’s calculation of the proposed reduction, and (ii) if the particular Interest is not separately listed in Exhibit “B”, Purchaser's proposed reduction in the Purchaser Price if the entire Interest were to be excluded from the sale hereunder at the Closing.  Any matters on Assets located outside of the State of Texas or as to matters which would otherwise constitute Title Defects on Assets outside of the State of Texas but which are not specifically raised in writing by Purchaser by September 18, 2018, shall conclusively be deemed waived by Purchaser for all purposes including as a condition to close, and claims for indemnifications or warranties.

3.5          Remedies for Title Defect.  Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, to attempt to cure any Title Defect.  With respect to any Title Defect that Seller elects not to cure or that Seller fails to cure within fifteen (15) days after receiving notice of the Title Defect, (i) if the Title Defect is not of a nature that results in immediate economic loss to the Purchaser, Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, to indemnify Purchaser against all liability, loss, cost and expense resulting from the Title Defect, in which event the Purchase Price shall not be reduced and the interest subject to such title Defect shall be sold to Purchaser hereunder, but such indemnity shall not be subject to any limitation on amount or included as a part of the indemnity pursuant to Section 12.2, (ii) at or prior to the Closing, Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, to exclude the Interest subject to the Title Defect from the sale hereunder, in which event the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the value of such Interest as determined in accordance with Sections 3.6 and 3.7, or (iii) the Interest subject to such Title Defect shall be sold to Purchaser hereunder and the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the value of the Title Defect as determined in accordance with Sections 3.6 and 3.7.  Except as provided in Section 3.12, the existence of a Title Defect shall not result in Purchaser having any right to exclude any Interest from the sale hereunder or to fail to perform its obligations at the Closing.

3.6          Value of Interest or Title Defect.  Exhibit “C” sets forth a value allocation, proposed by Purchaser and acceptable to Seller, for each Interest that has been identified prior to the execution of this Agreement.  The value, for purposes of clause (ii) of Section 3.5, of any Interest listed in Exhibit “B” shall be determined based upon the total values for such field in Exhibit “C”.  The calculation of the a Title Defect shall be the difference between the original net working interest represented in Exhibit “B” at the time of signing and the net working interest as asserted in the Defect Notice.  For net revenue interest defects, Purchaser shall provide sufficient data and calculation to support its defect value.  If the value of an Interest not listed in Exhibit “B” or of a Title Defect is to be determined for purposes of clauses (ii) or (iii) of Section 3.5, within five (5) days after Seller elects not to cure the Title Defect, fails to cure the Title Defect within the above described 15 day period, or elects to exclude the Interest from the sale hereunder, Seller shall notify Purchaser whether Seller agrees with Purchaser's proposed reduction in the Purchase Price for

 

 

such Interest or Title Defect, as the case may be.  If Seller does not agree with Purchaser's proposed reduction, then the parties shall enter into good faith negotiations and shall attempt to agree on the proposed reduction in the Purchase Price, which in the case of a Title Defect pertaining to an Interest listed in Exhibit “B” shall be determined based upon the total values for such field set forth in Exhibit “C”.  An individual Title Defect that, based on the stated calculation utilizing the Exhibit “C” value allocation, does not exceed $10,000 (“Title Threshold”) will be deemed immaterial and will not qualify for inclusion in any determination of the Adjusted Purchase Price.  The sum of the qualifying Title Defects, having been reduced by the value of any Interest Additions, shall only reduce the Purchase Price at Closing to the extent, and only to the extent, the amount exceeds $250,000 (“Defect Deductible”).

3.7          Possible Upward Adjustment.  Promptly on discovery, but no later than five (5) business days prior to Closing, Purchaser shall in good faith notify Seller of any interest that would be an Asset hereunder, but that is not listed, and such interest entitles Seller to receive a material increase in the Net Revenue Interest shown on Exhibit “B” or obligates Seller to bear costs and expenses in an amount materially less than the Working Interest shown on Exhibit “B” without a proportionate change in Net Revenue Interest, with such interest being an “Interest Addition”.  Purchaser acknowledges and agrees to comply with the affirmative obligation set forth in the preceding sentence.  Seller shall give Purchaser written notice of Interest Additions of which they become aware as soon as possible, but in no event later than on or before five (5) days prior to Closing.  Such notices shall be in writing and shall include (i) a description of the Interest Addition, (ii) the basis for the Interest Addition, (iii) the allocated value of the Interest affected by the Interest Addition (based on the calculation methodology used for a Title Defect), (iv) the value of the Interest Addition or the amount by which Seller (or Purchaser) believes the allocated value of the Interest identified on Exhibit “B” has been increased by the Interest Addition (“Value of Interest Addition”) and the associated computations and supporting documentation.  The Value of the Interest Addition shall be determined by the Parties in good faith based upon the allocated value of the Interest affected on Exhibit ”B” and all factors relevant thereto .

3.8          Notices to Holders of Preferential Purchase Rights.  Seller has heretofore sent or will send prior to Closing, letters to the parties shown in Seller’s records as holding preferential purchase rights covering the Interests listed in Exhibit “B”, if any, requesting a waiver of such rights as they may apply to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.  The form of such notice offering to sell to such holder, in accordance with the contractual provisions applicable to such right, those Interests covered by such right shall be on substantially the terms hereof and for the portion of the Purchase Price allocated to such Interests based upon the total values for such field in Exhibit “C”, subject to adjustments in price in the same manner that the Purchase Price is adjusted pursuant to Section 2.1 of this Agreement.  Prior to Closing, Seller will provide Purchaser with copies of all Preferential Purchase Rights’ letters.

 

 

 

  

3.9          Exercise of Preferential Purchase Rights.  If, prior to Closing, any holder of a preferential purchase right notifies Seller that it intends to consummate the Purchase of the Interests to which its preferential purchase right applies, then those Interests shall be excluded from the Assets to be conveyed to Purchaser under this Agreement, and the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the portion of the Purchase Price allocated to such Interests based upon the total values for such field in Exhibit “C”; provided, however, that if the holder of such preferential right fails to consummate the purchase of the Interests covered by such right, then Seller shall so notify Purchaser, and within fifteen (15) days after Purchaser's receipt of such notice from Seller, Seller shall sell to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall purchase from Seller, for a price equal to the portion of the Purchase Price allocated to such Interests based upon the total values for such field in Exhibit “C” and upon the other terms of this Agreement, the Interests to which the preferential purchase right applied.  All Interests for which a preferential purchase right has not been asserted prior to the Closing by the holder of such right shall be sold to Purchaser at the Closing pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement.  If one or more of the holders of any such preferential purchase rights notifies Seller subsequent to the Closing that it intends to assert its preferential purchase right, Seller shall give notice thereof to Purchaser, whereupon Purchaser shall satisfy all such preferential purchase right obligations of Seller to such holders and shall indemnify and hold harmless Seller from and against any and all claims, liabilities, losses, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, court costs and reasonable attorneys' fees) in connection therewith, and Purchaser shall be entitled to receive (and Seller hereby assigns to Purchaser all of Seller’s rights to) all proceeds received from such holders in connection with such preferential purchase rights.

3.10          Casualty Loss.  If prior to Closing any of the Assets are substantially damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty ("Casualty Defect"), Seller shall notify Purchaser promptly after Seller learns of such event.  Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cure any such Casualty Defect by repairing such damage or, in the case of personal Assets or fixtures, replacing the Assets affected thereby with equivalent items, no later than the date of Closing.  If any Casualty Defects exist at Closing, Purchaser shall proceed to purchase the Assets affected thereby, and the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the aggregate reduction in the value of such Assets on account of such Casualty Defects, as determined by the mutual agreement of the parties, or if the parties are unable to agree on such amount prior to Closing, then such determination shall be made by a consultant mutually acceptable to the parties, which consultant for the sole purposes of this Section 3.10 is empowered to employ an appraiser knowledgeable in the field to assist consultant in determining such value.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Seller shall be entitled to retain all insurance proceeds and claims against other parties in respect of any such Casualty Defect.

          3.11          Environmental Defect (as to the Texas Properties Only).

3.11.1          Definitions.  For purposes of this Agreement:

“Environmental Defect” shall mean a well or property attributable to an Interest in a Texas Property that is in material violation of Applicable Environmental Law or where there is present a condition which requires Remediation under Applicable Environmental Law (“Environmental Defect”)

 

 

  

“Applicable Environmental Laws” shall mean all federal, state, municipal, or local statutes, ordinances, laws, rules, orders or regulations pertaining to the protection of the environment, including those relating to waste materials and/or hazardous substances or materials, applicable to the Assets.

 “Remediate” or “Remediation” shall mean the undertaking and completion of any remedial, removal, response, construction, closure, disposal or other corrective actions required under Applicable Environmental Laws to correct or remove material violations of Applicable Environmental Laws in the most cost effective manner reasonably available, consistent with requirements of Applicable Environmental Laws, taking into account that nonpermanent remedies (such as, by way of example, but not by limitation or similarity, mechanisms to contain or stabilize hazardous substances or materials, including monitoring site conditions, natural attenuation, risk-based corrective action, institutional controls, or other appropriate restrictions on the use of property, caps, dikes, encapsulation, leachate collection system, etc.) may be the most cost effective manner reasonably available.

“Remediation Value” shall mean the lesser of the value of the cost to Remediate the affected Asset or the allocated value of the affected Interest based upon the total values for such field as set forth in Exhibit “C.”

3.11.2  Notice of Environmental Defect.  Purchaser shall notify Seller in writing, as soon as reasonably practicable after Purchaser has knowledge thereof, and in any event by October 18, 2018, of any Environmental Defect believed to be identified by Purchaser.  Such notice shall include (i) a copy of the Site Assessment documentation that describes the Environmental Defect, (ii) specific citation(s) to the provisions of applicable Environmental Law alleged to be violated or requiring Remediation and the related facts that support the assertion of the Environmental Defect, (iii) a description of the procedures or actions recommended by Purchaser (or its consultant) to Remediate the alleged Environmental Defect, and (iv) the cost to Remediate the Environmental Defect.  Any matters which would otherwise constitute Environmental Defects but relate to Assets located outside of the State of Texas or which are not specifically raised in writing by Purchaser by September 18, 2018, shall conclusively be deemed waived by Purchaser for all purposes including as a condition to close, and claims for indemnifications or warranties.

3.11.3  Remedies for Environmental Defects.  As to any Environmental Defect accepted by Seller or determined to be an Environmental Defect, Seller shall have the election to:

	
a.

	
 Remediate such Environmental Defect at Seller’s sole cost and risk in accordance with applicable Environmental laws, and there shall be no adjustment to the Purchase Price in respect of such Environmental Defect;

	
b.

	
Reduce the Purchase Price by the applicable Remediation Value associated with the Asset(s) affected by such Environmental Defect, in which event Seller shall have no other or further obligation or liability in respect of such Environmental Defect insofar as relates to the interests in the Assets conveyed; provided, however, no downward adjustment of the Purchase Price on account of Environmental Defects shall occur unless the aggregate sum of all Remediation Values exceeds one percent (1%) of the Purchase Price (“Environmental Basket Value”), and the amount of downward adjustment shall be the aggregate sum of all Remediation Values exceeding the Environmental Basket Value;

 

 

  

	
c.

	
Exclude from this Agreement the Asset which contains the Environmental Defect in which event the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the value allocated to the affected Interests based upon the total values for such field as set forth in Exhibit “C”

3.12          Right to Terminate in the Event of Significant Title Defect, Casualty Loss, Environmental Defect and/or Preferential Right Being Exercised as to the Texas Properties Only.  In the event that the Purchase Price Adjustment associated with any or all Title Defects, Casualty Losses, Environmental Defects, or Assets excluded pursuant to the exercise of preferential rights is in excess of fifteen percent (15%) of the Purchase Price, then Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement prior to Closing with no further obligation to Seller.

From and after Closing, Seller shall indemnify and hold Purchaser and its directors, officers, employees, attorneys, contractors, subcontractors, insurers, and agents (collectively, “Purchaser Indemnitees”) harmless from and against any and all claims, actions, causes of action, liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, costs or expenses (including court costs and consultants and reasonable attorneys' fees) (individually a “Purchaser’s Indemnified Claim” and collectively “Purchaser’s Indemnified Claims”) arising out of or related to any misrepresentation or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of Seller contained in this agreement, except to the extent otherwise provided in Section 12.1; provided, however, Seller shall not be obligated to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnitees under this Section for any Purchaser Indemnified Claim except to the extent, if any, that the aggregate of all of Purchaser’s Indemnified Claims exceeds two percent (2%) of the Purchase Price, and then only to the extent of such excess.

Purchaser shall use its reasonable efforts to recover under insurance policies any losses prior to seeking indemnification under this Agreement.  To the extent that indemnification for any loss is provided under this Section 12 and subsequently amounts are recovered by the Indemnitee under insurance policies with respect to such loss or from any third party pursuant to third-party indemnification agreements, the Indemnitee shall pay to the Indemnifying Party all such amounts recovered by the Indemnitee promptly following the receipt of such amounts.

(b)          If the amount of any loss for which indemnification is provided under this Section 12 gives rise to a Tax Benefit (as defined below) to the Indemnitee making the Indemnification Claim, then the Indemnification Claim shall be reduced to take account of any Tax Benefit realized by the Indemnitee arising from the incurrence or payment of any such loss.  If any such Tax Benefit is actually realized before the date of an indemnification payment, such indemnification payment shall be reduced to take into the account the reduction in the relevant loss as a result of such Tax Benefit.  If such Tax Benefit is actually realized after the date of an indemnification payment, the Indemnitee shall promptly after such Tax Benefit is actually realized make a payment to the applicable Indemnifying Party to take into account the reduction in the relevant loss as a result of such Tax Benefit; such payments by an Indemnitee not to exceed the indemnification payments previously received by such Indemnitee from the Indemnifying Party in respect of such Loss. For purposes of this Section 12.5(b), a Tax Benefit is an amount by which the tax liability of the applicable party (or affiliated group of corporations filing a consolidated tax return including the applicable party) is actually reduced (including by deduction, reduction of income by virtue of increased tax basis or otherwise, entitlement to refund, credit or otherwise) plus any related interest received from the relevant taxing authority, and any such Tax Benefit is “actually realized” to the extent that such Tax Benefit can be realized in the current taxable period or year or in any tax return with respect thereto (including through a carryback to a prior taxable period) or in any taxable period or year prior to the date of the Indemnification Claim.

Section 12.6          Tax Treatment of Indemnity Payments.  Seller and Purchaser agree to treat any indemnity payment made pursuant to this Agreement as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for federal, state, local and foreign income tax purposes.

Any and all taxes, levies, imposts, duties, assessments, charges and withholdings and similar charges imposed or required to be collected by or paid over to any governmental authority, including any interest, penalties, fines, assessments or additions imposed with respect to the foregoing other than income, franchise, net worth and employment taxes. ("Asset Taxes") with respect to the tax period in which the Effective Date occurs shall be apportioned as of the Effective Date between Seller and Purchaser, with Asset Taxes allocated to the period ending immediately before the Effective Date being apportioned to Seller and Asset Taxes allocated to the period beginning on the Effective Date being apportioned to Purchaser.  For these purposes, ad valorem, property, and similar taxes imposed on or with respect to the Assets on a periodic basis shall be prorated based on the number of days during such tax period which fall on each side of the Effective Date, and taxes imposed on production, severance, or sale of oil or gas derived from the Assets assessed with respect to such tax period shall be allocated to the portion of such tax period in which the production, severance, or sale giving rise to such taxes occurred. With respect to any of the Interests which are not Seller operated, Seller and Purchaser shall agree on the manner in which Asset Taxes will be remitted to the operator of the affected Interests.  If Seller remits the Asset Taxes to the operator, Purchaser shall reimburse Seller for its apportioned share of such Asset Taxes as determined under this paragraph.  If Purchaser remits the Asset Taxes to the operator, Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for its apportioned share of such Asset Taxes as determined under this paragraph. If either party pays any taxes that are apportioned to the other party under this Section 14.1, to the extent such amount was not taken into account under Section 2.1 in determining the final Adjusted Purchase Price, the party to which such taxes are apportioned under this Section 14.1 shall promptly reimburse the other party for such amount within fifteen days.

 

 

  

14.2          Sales Taxes.          Purchaser agrees to be solely responsible, and shall indemnify and hold Seller (and its affiliates, and its and their directors, officers, employees, attorneys, contractors and agents) harmless, for any and all sales, transfer or other similar taxes (including related penalty, interest or legal costs) due by virtue of this transaction on the Interests transferred pursuant hereto.

14.3          Cooperation.          Each party to this Agreement shall provide the other party with reasonable access to all relevant documents, data and other information which may be required by the other party for the purpose of preparing tax returns and responding to any audit by any taxing jurisdiction.  Each party to this Agreement shall cooperate with all reasonable requests of the other party made in connection with contesting the imposition of taxes.

 Section 1.04
Financial Calculations for Limited Condition Acquisitions. 
 When calculating the availability under any basket or ratio under this Indenture, in
each case in connection with a Limited Condition Acquisition and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock and the use of proceeds thereof), the date of
determination of such basket or ratio and of any Default or Event of Default may, at the option of the Issuer, be the date the definitive agreement(s) for such Limited Condition Acquisition is entered into. Any such ratio or basket shall be
calculated on a pro forma basis, including with such adjustments as are appropriate and consistent with the pro forma adjustment provisions set forth in the definition of Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, after giving effect to such Limited Condition
Acquisition and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock and the use of proceeds thereof) as if they had been consummated at the beginning of the
applicable period for purposes of determining the ability to consummate any such Limited Condition Acquisition; provided that if the Issuer elects to make such determination as of the date of such definitive agreement(s), then (x) the
Issuer shall be deemed to be in compliance with such ratios or baskets solely for purposes of determining whether the Limited Condition Acquisition and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness,
Disqualified Stock or preferred stock and the use of proceeds thereof), is permitted under this Indenture, and (y) such ratios or baskets shall not be tested at the time of consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition or related
transactions; provided, further, that if the Issuer elects to have such determinations occur at the time of entry into such definitive agreement(s), any such transactions (including any incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness,
Disqualified Stock or preferred stock and the use of proceeds thereof) shall be deemed to have occurred on the date the definitive agreement(s) is entered into and shall be deemed outstanding thereafter for purposes of calculating any ratios or
baskets under this Indenture after the date of such definitive agreement(s) and before the consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition, unless such definitive agreement(s) is terminated or such Limited Condition Acquisition or incurrence or
issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock or such other transaction to which pro forma effect is being given does not occur. 

ARTICLE 2 
 THE NOTES 

Section 2.01 Form and Dating. 
 (a)
General. The Notes will be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or usage. Each Note will be dated the date of its authentication. The Notes
shall be in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The terms and provisions contained in the Notes will constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture and the Issuer, the Guarantors
and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the extent any provision of any Note conflicts with the express provisions of this Indenture, the
provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling. 
 (b) Additional Notes. The aggregate principal amount of Notes that
may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is unlimited. Additional Notes ranking pari passu with the Initial Notes may be created and issued from time to time by the Issuer without notice to or consent of the Holders and shall
be consolidated with and form a single class with the Initial Notes and shall have the same terms as to 

  
 36 

 
status, redemption or otherwise (other than issue date, issue price and, if applicable, the first Interest Payment Date and the first date from which interest will accrue) as the Initial Notes;
provided that the Issuer’s ability to issue Additional Notes shall be subject to the Issuer’s compliance with Section 4.09. If any Additional Notes are not fungible with the Notes for U.S. federal income tax or securities law
purposes, such Additional Notes shall be issued as a separate series under this Indenture and shall have a separate CUSIP number and ISIN from the Notes. 

(c) Global Notes. Notes issued in global form will be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (including the Global Note Legend
thereon and the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto). Notes issued in definitive form will be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (but without the Global Note Legend thereon and without the
“Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto). Each Global Note will represent such of the outstanding Notes as will be specified therein and each shall provide that it represents the aggregate principal amount
of outstanding Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges and redemptions. Any
endorsement of a Global Note to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby will be made by the Trustee or the Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, in accordance
with instructions given by the holder thereof as required by Section 2.06 hereof. 
 Section 2.02 Execution and Authentication. 

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

If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time a Note is authenticated, the Note will nevertheless be
valid. 
 A Note will not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee. The signature will be conclusive evidence
that the Note has been authenticated under this Indenture. 
 The Trustee will, upon receipt of a written order signed by an Officer of the
Issuer (an “Authentication Order”), authenticate Notes for original issue that may be validly issued under this Indenture, including any Additional Notes. The aggregate principal amount of Notes outstanding at any time may not
exceed the aggregate principal amount of Notes authorized for issuance by the Issuer pursuant to one or more Authentication Orders, except as provided in Section 2.07 hereof. 

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

Section 2.03 Registrar and Paying Agent. 

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

  
 37 

 The Issuer initially appoints The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) to act
as Depositary with respect to the Global Notes. 
 The Issuer initially appoints the Trustee to act as the Registrar and Paying Agent and to
act as Custodian with respect to the Global Notes. 
 Section 2.04 Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. 

The Issuer will require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust for the benefit
of Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest, if any, on, the Notes, and will notify the Trustee of any default by the Issuer in making any such payment. While any such
default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent
(if other than an Issuer or a Subsidiary) will have no further liability for the money. If an Issuer or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it will segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as
Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Issuer, the Trustee will automatically serve as Paying Agent for the Notes without any further action. 

Section 2.05 Holder Lists. 
 The
Trustee will preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of all Holders. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuer will furnish to the Trustee at least seven
Business Days before each interest payment date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Holders of Notes. 

Section 2.06 Transfer and Exchange. 

(a) Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes. A Global Note may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to a nominee of the
Depositary, by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or to another nominee of the Depositary, or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary. All Global Notes will be exchanged by
the Issuer for Definitive Notes if: 
 (1) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee notice from the Depositary that it is unwilling
or unable to continue to act as Depositary or that it is no longer a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and, in either case, a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Issuer within 120 days after the date of such notice from the
Depositary; 
 (2) the Issuer in its sole discretion determines that the Global Notes (in whole but not in part) should be
exchanged for Definitive Notes and delivers a written notice to such effect to the Trustee; or 
 (3) there has occurred and
is continuing a Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes and the Depositary or the Issuer specifically requests such exchange. 

  
 38 

 Upon the occurrence of either of the preceding events in (1) or (2) above, Definitive
Notes shall be issued in such names as the Depositary shall instruct the Trustee. Global Notes also may be exchanged or replaced, in whole or in part, as provided in Sections 2.07 and 2.10 hereof. Every Note authenticated and delivered in exchange
for, or in lieu of, a Global Note or any portion thereof, pursuant to this Section 2.06 or Section 2.07 or 2.10 hereof, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Note. A Global Note may not be exchanged
for another Note other than as provided in this Section 2.06(a), however, beneficial interests in a Global Note may be transferred and exchanged as provided in Section 2.06(b) or (c) hereof. 

(b) Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in the Global Notes. The transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in the Global
Notes will be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture and the Applicable Procedures. Beneficial interests in the Restricted Global Notes will be subject to restrictions on transfer comparable to those set
forth herein to the extent required by the Securities Act. Transfers of beneficial interests in the Global Notes also will require compliance with either subparagraph (1) or (2) below, as applicable, as well as one or more of the other
following subparagraphs, as applicable: 
 (1) Transfer of Beneficial Interests in the Same Global Note. Beneficial
interests in any Restricted Global Note may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the same Restricted Global Note in accordance with the transfer restrictions set forth in the Private Placement
Legend. Beneficial interests in any Unrestricted Global Note may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note. No written orders or instructions shall be required to be
delivered to the Registrar to effect the transfers described in this Section 2.06(b)(1). 
 (2) All Other Transfers
and Exchanges of Beneficial Interests in Global Notes. In connection with all transfers and exchanges of beneficial interests that are not subject to Section 2.06(b)(1) above, subject to Section 2.06(a), the transferor of such
beneficial interest must deliver to the Registrar either: 
 (A) both: 

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

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

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

  
 39 

 (ii) instructions given by the Depositary to the Registrar containing
information regarding the Person in whose name such Definitive Note shall be registered to effect the transfer or exchange referred to in (1) above; 

Upon consummation of an Exchange Offer by the Issuer in accordance with Section 2.06(f) hereof, the requirements of this
Section 2.06(b)(2) shall be deemed to have been satisfied upon receipt by the Registrar of the instructions contained in the Letter of Transmittal delivered by the Holder of such beneficial interests in the Restricted Global Notes or in
accordance with DTC’s Applicable procedures. 
 (3) Transfer of Beneficial Interests to Another Restricted Global
Note. A beneficial interest in any Restricted Global Note may be transferred to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Restricted Global Note if the transfer complies with the requirements of
Section 2.06(b)(2) above and the Registrar receives the following: 
 (A) if the transferee will take delivery in the
form of a beneficial interest in the 144A Global Note, then the transferor must deliver a certificate in the form of Exhibit B hereto, including the certifications in item (1) thereof; 

(B) if the transferee will take delivery in the form of a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Note, then the
transferor must deliver a certificate in the form of Exhibit B hereto, including the certifications in item (2) thereof; and 

(4) Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in a Restricted Global Note for Beneficial Interests in an Unrestricted
Global Note. A beneficial interest in any Restricted Global Note may be exchanged by any Holder thereof for a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note or transferred to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial
interest in an Unrestricted Global Note if the exchange or transfer complies with the requirements of Section 2.06(b)(2) above and: 

(A) such exchange or transfer is effected pursuant to the Exchange Offer in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement
and the holder of the beneficial interest to be transferred, in the case of an exchange, or the transferee, in the case of a transfer, certifies in the applicable Letter of Transmittal that it is not (i) a Broker-Dealer, (ii) a Person

 and, in each such case set forth in this subparagraph (D), if the Issuer or the Registrar so
requests or if the Applicable Procedures so require, an Opinion of Counsel in form reasonably acceptable to the Issuer to the effect that such exchange or transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act and that the restrictions on transfer
contained herein and in the Private Placement Legend are no longer required in order to maintain compliance with the Securities Act. 
 If
any such transfer is effected pursuant to subparagraph (B) or (D) above at a time when an Unrestricted Global Note has not yet been issued, the Issuer shall issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02
hereof, the Trustee shall authenticate one or more Unrestricted Global Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of beneficial interests transferred pursuant to subparagraph (B) or (D) above.

(1) Beneficial Interests in Restricted Global Notes to Restricted Definitive Notes. If any Holder of a beneficial

Interests. 
 (1) Restricted Definitive Notes to Beneficial Interests in Restricted Global Notes. If any Holder of

compliance with the Securities Act. 
 (3) Unrestricted Definitive Notes to Unrestricted Definitive Notes. A Holder of
Unrestricted Definitive Notes may transfer such Notes to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of an Unrestricted Definitive Note. Upon receipt of a request to register such a transfer, the Registrar shall register the Unrestricted
Definitive Notes pursuant to the instructions from the Holder thereof. 
 (f) Exchange Offer. Upon the occurrence of the Exchange
Offer in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement, the Issuer will issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02 hereof, the Trustee will authenticate:

 Concurrently with the
issuance of such Notes, the Trustee will cause the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Restricted Global Notes to be reduced accordingly, and the Issuer will execute and the Trustee will authenticate and deliver to the Persons designated by
the Holders of Definitive Notes so accepted Unrestricted Definitive Notes in the appropriate principal amount. 
 (g) Legends. The
following legends will appear on the face of all Global Notes and Definitive Notes issued under this Indenture unless specifically stated otherwise in the applicable provisions of this Indenture. 

(1) Private Placement Legend. 

(A) Except as permitted by subparagraph (B) below, each Global Note and each Definitive Note (and all Notes issued in
exchange therefor or substitution thereof) shall bear the legend in substantially the following form: 
 “THE SECURITY (OR ITS PREDECESSOR) EVIDENCED
HEREBY WAS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN A TRANSACTION EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SECTION 5 OF THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND THE SECURITY EVIDENCED HEREBY MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR
OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR AN APPLICABLE EXEMPTION THEREFROM. EACH PURCHASER OF THE SECURITY EVIDENCED HEREBY IS HEREBY NOTIFIED THAT THE SELLER MAY BE RELYING ON THE EXEMPTION FROM THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 5
OF THE SECURITIES ACT PROVIDED BY RULE 144A THEREUNDER. THE HOLDER OF THE SECURITY EVIDENCED HEREBY AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE ISSUER THAT: (A) SUCH SECURITY MAY BE RESOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, ONLY (a) (i) INSIDE THE
UNITED STATES TO A PERSON WHO THE SELLER REASONABLY BELIEVES IS A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) PURCHASING FOR ITS OWN ACCOUNT OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OF A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER IN A TRANSACTION
MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, (ii) OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES TO A FOREIGN PERSON IN A TRANSACTION MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF RULE 903 OR RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, (iii) PURSUANT
TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT PROVIDED BY RULE 144 THEREUNDER (IF APPLICABLE) OR (iv) IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANOTHER EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT (AND BASED UPON AN OPINION OF
COUNSEL ACCEPTABLE TO THE ISSUER IF THE ISSUER SO REQUESTS), (b) TO THE ISSUER OR (c) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT AND, IN EACH CASE, IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES OR
ANY OTHER APPLICABLE JURISDICTION AND (B) THE HOLDER WILL, AND EACH SUBSEQUENT HOLDER IS REQUIRED TO, NOTIFY ANY PURCHASER OF THE SECURITY EVIDENCED HEREBY OF THE RESALE RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH IN CLAUSE (A) ABOVE. NO REPRESENTATION CAN BE
MADE AS TO THE AVAILABILITY OF THE EXEMPTION PROVIDED BY RULE 144 FOR RESALE OF THE SECURITY EVIDENCED HEREBY.” 

  
 47 

 (B) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Global Note or Definitive Note issued
pursuant to subparagraphs (b)(4), (c)(3), (c)(4), (d)(2), (d)(3), (e)(2) or (e)(3) of this Section 2.06 (and all Notes issued in exchange therefor or substitution thereof) will not bear the Private Placement Legend. 

(2) Global Note Legend. Each Global Note will bear a legend in substantially the following form: 

“THIS GLOBAL NOTE IS HELD BY THE DEPOSITARY (AS DEFINED IN THE INDENTURE GOVERNING THIS NOTE) OR ITS NOMINEE IN CUSTODY FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE BENEFICIAL
OWNERS HEREOF, AND IS NOT TRANSFERABLE TO ANY PERSON UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES EXCEPT THAT (1) THE TRUSTEE MAY MAKE SUCH NOTATIONS HEREON AS MAY BE REQUIRED PURSUANT TO SECTION 2.06 OF THE INDENTURE, (2) THIS GLOBAL NOTE MAY BE EXCHANGED IN

DEPOSITARY WITH THE PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT OF THE ISSUER. 
 UNLESS AND UNTIL IT IS EXCHANGED IN WHOLE OR IN PART FOR NOTES IN DEFINITIVE FORM, THIS NOTE MAY
NOT BE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT AS A WHOLE BY THE DEPOSITARY TO A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY OR BY A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY TO THE DEPOSITARY OR ANOTHER NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY OR BY THE DEPOSITARY OR ANY SUCH NOMINEE TO A SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY OR A
NOMINEE OF SUCH SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY. UNLESS THIS CERTIFICATE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY (55 WATER STREET, NEW YORK, NEW YORK) (“DTC”), TO THE ISSUER OR ITS AGENT FOR REGISTRATION OF
TRANSFER, EXCHANGE OR PAYMENT, AND ANY CERTIFICATE ISSUED IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF CEDE & CO. OR SUCH OTHER NAME AS MAY BE REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC (AND ANY PAYMENT IS MADE TO CEDE & CO. OR SUCH OTHER
ENTITY AS MAY BE REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL INASMUCH AS THE REGISTERED OWNER HEREOF, CEDE & CO., HAS AN INTEREST
HEREIN.” 
 (h) Cancellation and/or Adjustment of Global Notes. At such time as all beneficial interests in a particular Global
Note have been exchanged for Definitive Notes or a particular Global Note has been redeemed, repurchased or canceled in whole and not in part, each such Global Note will be returned to or retained and canceled by the Trustee in accordance with
Section 2.11 hereof. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note or
for Definitive Notes, the principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note will be reduced accordingly and an endorsement will be made on the Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in such Global Note by the Trustee or by the Depositary at the
direction of the Trustee to reflect such reduction; and if the beneficial interest is being exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note, such other Global Note
will be increased accordingly and an endorsement will be made on the Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in such Global Note by the Trustee or by the Depositary at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such increase. 

(i) General Provisions Relating to Transfers and Exchanges. 

  
 48 

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

(2) No service charge will be made to a Holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Note or to a Holder of a Definitive Note
for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes or similar governmental
charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 2.10, 3.06, 3.10, 3.11, 4.10, 4.15 and 9.05 hereof). 
 (3) The
Registrar will not be required to register the transfer of or exchange of any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. 

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

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

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

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

(9) Neither the Trustee nor the Registrar shall have any duty to monitor the Issuer’s compliance with or have any
responsibility with respect to the Issuer’s compliance with any federal or state securities laws in connection with registrations of transfers and exchanges of the Notes. Neither the Trustee nor the Registrar shall have any obligation or duty
to monitor, determine or 

  
 49 

 
inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Notes (including any transfers
between or among the Depositary’s participants or beneficial owners of interests in any Global Note) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation, as is expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly
required by, the terms of this Indenture and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof. 

Section 2.07 Replacement Notes. 
 If
any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or the Issuer and the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, the Issuer will issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, will
authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements are met. If required by the Trustee or the Issuer, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Issuer to protect the
Issuer, the Guarantors, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Issuer may charge for its expenses in replacing a Note. 

Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Issuer and the Guarantors and will be entitled to all of the benefits of this
Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder. 
 Section 2.08 Outstanding Notes. 

The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for
cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding. Except as set forth in Section 2.09 hereof, a
Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer holds the Note; however, Notes held by an Issuer or a Subsidiary of an Issuer shall not be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of Section 3.07(a)
hereof.  
 If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee
receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser. 
 If the principal amount of any Note is
considered paid under Section 4.01 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue. 
 If the Paying Agent
(other than an Issuer, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds, on a redemption date or maturity date, money sufficient to pay Notes payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes will be deemed to be no longer outstanding
and will cease to accrue interest. 
 Section 2.09 Treasury Notes. 

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

  
 50 

 Section 2.10 Temporary Notes. 

Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order,
will authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes will be substantially in the form of certificated Notes but may have variations that the Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as may be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without
unreasonable delay, the Issuer will prepare and the Trustee will authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes. 
 Holders
of temporary Notes will be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture. 
 Section 2.11 Cancellation. 

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

If either Issuer defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it will pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent
lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof. The Issuer will notify the Trustee in writing of
the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment. The Issuer will fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date and payment date; provided that no such special record date may be
less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted interest. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Issuer (or, upon the written request of the Issuer, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuer) will
mail or cause to be mailed to Holders a notice that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid. 

Section 2.13 CUSIP Numbers 
 The
Issuer in issuing the Notes may use CUSIP, ISIN or other similar numbers, if then generally in use, and thereafter with respect to such series, the Trustee may use such numbers in any notice with respect to the Notes provided that any such notice
may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice (including any notice of redemption or exchange) and that reliance may be placed only on the other
identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such notice or notice of redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Issuer will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the CUSIP, ISIN or
other similar numbers. Notwithstanding anything otherwise to the contrary in this Indenture or the Notes, the Issuer may, and, at the Issuer’s direction, the Trustee shall, exchange Notes then outstanding, including, in the case of any Global
Notes, through a mandatory exchange at the Depositary or otherwise in accordance with Applicable Procedures, to reflect any change in the name of the Issuer, and/or the CUSIP numbers and ISIN numbers with respect to the Notes as may be necessary or
appropriate to give effect to the Eldorado Assumption, and if any new Notes are to be issued in exchange for other Notes pursuant to this Section 2.13, the Issuer shall provide an Authentication Order and a cancellation order to the Trustee in
respect thereof. Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note shall not affect the validity and effect of the Eldorado Assumption.

Notices to Trustee. 
 If the Issuer elects to redeem Notes pursuant to the optional redemption provisions of Section 3.07

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

(2) the redemption date; 

(3) the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed; and

Section 3.02 Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed or Purchased. 

If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed or purchased in an offer to purchase at any time, the Trustee will select Notes for redemption
or purchase on a pro rata basis (or, in the case of Notes issued in global form pursuant to Article 2 hereof, based on a method that most nearly approximates a pro rata selection or by lot, but in any case subject to the rules and
procedures of the applicable Depositary) unless otherwise required by law or applicable stock exchange or depositary requirements. 
 In the
event of partial redemption or purchase by lot, the particular Notes to be redeemed or purchased will be selected, unless otherwise provided herein, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption or purchase date by the Trustee from
the outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption or purchase. 
 The Trustee will promptly notify the Issuer in writing of the
Notes selected for redemption or purchase and, in the case of any Note selected for partial redemption or purchase, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed or purchased. Notes and portions of Notes selected will be in amounts of $2,000 or whole
multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof; except that if all of the Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed or purchased, the entire outstanding amount of Notes held by such Holder shall be redeemed or purchased. Except as provided in the preceding
sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption or purchase also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase. 

Section 3.03 Notice of Redemption. 

Subject to the provisions of Sections 3.10 hereof, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, the Issuer will mail or
cause to be mailed, by first class mail (or send such notices electronically in accordance with the Applicable Procedures in the case of Notes in global form), a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered
address (with a copy to the Trustee), except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture
pursuant to Articles 8 or 11 hereof. 

  
 52 

 The notice will identify the Notes to be redeemed and will state: 

(1) the redemption date; 

(2) the redemption price (or manner of calculation if not then known); 

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

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

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

(6) that, unless either Issuer defaults in making such redemption payment, interest and Additional Interest, if any, on Notes
called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date; 
 (7) the paragraph of the Notes and/or Section of
this Indenture pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed; 
 (8) that no representation is made as
to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes; and 
 (9) any
conditions to such redemption. 
 At the Issuer’s request, the Trustee will give the notice of redemption in the Issuer’s name and
at its expense; provided, however, that the Issuer has delivered to the Trustee, at least 45 days prior to the redemption date (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), 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 the preceding paragraph along with a copy of the redemption notice to be delivered to the Holders. 

Section 3.04 Effect of Notice of Redemption. 

Any notice of redemption may be conditional. 

Section 3.05 Deposit of Redemption or Purchase Price. 

One Business Day prior to the redemption or purchase date, the Issuer will deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent money sufficient
to pay the redemption or purchase price of and accrued interest and Additional Interest, if any, on all Notes to be redeemed or purchased on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent will promptly return to the Issuer any money deposited with the
Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Issuer in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption or purchase price of and accrued interest and Additional Interest, if any, on all Notes to be redeemed or purchased. 

If the Issuer complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on and after the redemption or purchase date, interest will cease to
accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase. If a Note is redeemed or purchased on or after an interest record date but on or prior to the 

  
 53 

 
related interest payment date, then any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such record date. If any Note
called for redemption or purchase is not so paid upon surrender for redemption or purchase because of the failure of the Issuer to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption or purchase
date until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof.

accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on the applicable redemption date.

holder, by accepting a Note, shall be deemed to have agreed that, if any Gaming Authority requires that a person who is a holder or the beneficial owner of Notes be registered, licensed, qualified or found suitable under applicable Gaming Laws, such
Holder or beneficial owner, as the case may be, shall apply for a license, qualification or a finding of suitability in accordance with such Gaming Laws. If such Person fails to apply or become registered, licensed or qualified or is found
unsuitable, the Issuer shall have the right, at its option: 
 (a) to require such Person to dispose of its Notes or beneficial interest
therein within 30 days of receipt of notice of the Issuer’s election or such earlier date as may be requested or prescribed by such Gaming Authority; or 

(b) to redeem such Notes, upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice to the Holders and the Trustee (or such earlier date as
may be requested or prescribed by such Gaming Authority), at a redemption price equal to; 
 (1) the lesser of: 

(A) the Person’s cost for such Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, to the earlier of
the date of redemption or the date of the finding of unsuitability or failure to comply; and 
 (B) 100% of the principal
amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, to the earlier of the date of redemption or the date of the finding of unsuitability or failure to comply; or 

(2) such other amount as may be required by applicable law or order of the Gaming Authority. 

(c) The Issuer shall notify the Trustee in writing of any such disqualified holder status or redemption as soon as practicable. Neither the
Issuer nor the Trustee shall be responsible for any costs or expenses any Holder or beneficial owner may incur in connection with its registration, application for a license, qualification or a finding of suitability, or any renewal or continuation
of the foregoing or compliance with any other requirement of a Gaming Authority. Those costs and expenses will be the obligations of the Holder or beneficial owner, as applicable.

 Section 3.09 Mandatory Redemption.

procedures specified below. 
 (b) The Asset Sale Offer shall be made to all Holders (with a copy to the Trustee) and all Holders of other
Pari Passu Debt containing provisions similar to those set forth in this Indenture with respect to offers to purchase, prepay or redeem with the proceeds of Asset Sales. The Asset Sale Offer will remain open for a period of at least 20 Business Days
following its commencement and not more than 30 Business Days, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the “Offer Period”). No later than three Business Days after the termination of the Offer Period
(the “Purchase Date”), the Issuer will apply all Excess Proceeds (the “Offer Amount”) to the purchase of Notes and such other Pari Passu Debt (on a pro rata basis based on the principal amount of Notes and
such other Pari Passu Debt surrendered, if applicable) or, if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes and other Pari Passu Debt tendered in response to the Asset Sale Offer. Payment for any Notes so purchased will be made in the same
manner as interest payments are made. 
 (c) If the Purchase Date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related
interest payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, will be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no additional interest will be payable to Holders
who tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. 
 (d) Upon the commencement of an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuer will send, by first class
mail (or in the case of Notes in global form, electronically in accordance with the Applicable Procedures), a notice to the Trustee and each of the Holders. The notice will contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to
tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. The notice, which will govern the terms of the Asset Sale Offer, will state: 

(1) that the Asset Sale Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 3.10 and Section 4.10 hereof and the length of
time the Asset Sale Offer will remain open; 
 (2) the Offer Amount, the purchase price and the Purchase Date;

 56 

 (6) that Holders electing to have Notes purchased pursuant to any Asset Sale
Offer will be required to surrender the Note, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to the Notes completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Issuer, a Depositary, if appointed by the Issuer, or a
Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice at least three days before the Purchase Date; 
 (7) that Holders will be
entitled to withdraw their election if the Issuer, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives, not later than the expiration of the Offer Period, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the
Holder, the principal amount of the Note the Holder delivered for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Note purchased; 

(8) that, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other Pari Passu Debt surrendered by Holders thereof exceeds the Offer
Amount, the Issuer will select the Notes and other Pari Passu Debt to be purchased on a pro rata basis based on the principal amount of Notes and such other Pari Passu Debt surrendered (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by
the Issuer so that only Notes in minimum denominations of $2,000, or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, will be left outstanding); and 

(9) that Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part will be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased
portion of the Notes surrendered (or transferred by book-entry transfer). 
 On or before the Purchase Date, the Issuer will, to the extent
lawful, accept for payment, on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the Offer Amount of Notes or portions thereof tendered pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer, or if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered, and will
deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Issuer in accordance with the terms of this
Section 3.10. The Issuer, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, will promptly (but in any case not later than five days after the Purchase Date) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder an amount equal to the purchase price of
the Notes tendered by such Holder and accepted by the Issuer for purchase, and the Issuer will promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee, upon written request from the Issuer, will authenticate and mail or deliver (or cause to be transferred by
book entry) such new Note to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered. Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Issuer to the Holder thereof. The Issuer will publicly
announce the results of the Asset Sale Offer on the Purchase Date. 
 Other than as specifically provided in this Section 3.10, any
purchase pursuant to this Section 3.10 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.01 through 3.06 hereof.

of the Escrow Agreement on or prior to the Termination Date, (ii) Escrow Issuer notifies the Escrow Agent in writing that Eldorado and Tropicana will not pursue the consummation of the ERI-Tropicana
Merger or (iii) Escrow Issuer fails to timely deposit (or cause to be timely deposited) in cash such amounts required by Section 3(f) of the Escrow Agreement on or before three Business Days after the applicable deposit date as set forth
in Section 3(f) of the Escrow Agreement, then the Escrow Agent shall release the Escrow Property (including investment earnings thereon and proceeds thereof) to the Trustee, on the Business Day prior to the second Business Day succeeding
(x) the Termination Date (in the case of clause (i)), (y) the date of such notice (in the case of clause (ii)) and (z) the third Business Day after the applicable deposit

date (in the case of clause (iii)) (such second (2nd) Business Day, the “Special Mandatory Redemption Date”), and the Trustee shall pay on the Special Mandatory Redemption Date
the amounts to the Paying Agent for payment to the Holders (the “Special Mandatory Redemption”) at a price (the “Special Mandatory Redemption Price”) equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued
and unpaid interest from the Issue Date to, but excluding, the Special Mandatory Redemption Date. Notice of the Special Mandatory Redemption will be delivered by the Issuer promptly to each Holder at its registered address, the Trustee and the
Escrow Agent. 
 (b) Pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, on the Business Day prior to the Special Mandatory Redemption Date, the Escrow Agent
will pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Trustee for payment to each Holder the Special Mandatory Redemption Price for such Holder’s Notes. In addition, on the Special Mandatory Redemption Date, the Trustee will pay to
Escrow Issuer any Escrow Property (including investment earnings thereon and proceeds thereof) in excess of the amount necessary to effect the Special Mandatory Redemption on such Notes on the Special Mandatory Redemption Date. After the Deadline,
all interest earned on the Escrow Property and any other Escrow Property that is not required to be applied towards a Special Mandatory Redemption shall be paid to the Issuer upon the Issuer’s written request in accordance with the terms of the
Escrow Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, it is acknowledged and agreed that in no event shall the Trustee or the Escrow Agent have any responsibility for determining or verifying the accuracy of the Special Mandatory Redemption Price.

Current Report on Form 8-K under the Exchange Act if the Issuer had been a reporting company under the Exchange Act; provided, however, that no such current report will be required to be furnished if

provided, that such distribution requirements shall be deemed to have been satisfied if the Issuer files all such information meeting the above
requirements within the applicable time periods with the SEC through the SEC’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval System (EDGAR) (or any successor system); 

provided further, however, that all such reports (A) will not be required to comply with Section 302 or Section 404 of the

Section 4.06 Stay, Extension and Usury Laws.  

The Issuer and each of the Guarantors covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, plead, or

of the Guarantors (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein

Subsidiaries pursuant to any equity subscription agreement, stock option agreement, employment agreement, severance agreement, shareholders’ agreement or similar agreement; provided that the aggregate price paid for all such repurchased,

contemplation of such acquisition), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person, or the property or assets of the Person, so acquired; provided that, in

Indenture solely in respect of the assets to be sold pursuant to such contract; 
 (10) Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness;
provided that the restrictions contained in the agreements governing such Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness are not, in the good faith determination of the Board of Directors of the Issuer, materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, than
those contained in the agreements governing the Indebtedness being refinanced; 
 (11) Liens permitted to be incurred under
the provisions of Section 4.12 hereof that limit the right of the debtor to dispose of the assets subject to such Liens; 

  
 65

time it becomes a Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that such agreements are not entered into in anticipation or contemplation thereof; 

(13) provisions limiting the disposition or distribution of assets or property in joint venture agreements, asset sale
agreements, sale-leaseback agreements, stock sale agreements and other similar agreements (including agreements entered into in connection with a Restricted Investment), which limitation is applicable only to the assets that are the subject of such

Section 4.09 Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock.  

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

(b) The provisions of Section 4.09(a) hereof will not prohibit the incurrence of any of the following items of Indebtedness (collectively,
“Permitted Debt”): 
 (1) the incurrence by the Issuer or any Guarantor (and/or the guarantee thereof by the
Issuer or any Guarantor) of Indebtedness and letters of credit under the Senior Credit Facilities or other Credit Facilities; provided that the aggregate principal amount of all such Indebtedness outstanding under this clause (1) as of
any date of incurrence (after giving pro forma effect to the application of the proceeds of such incurrence), including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to repay, redeem, extend, refinance, renew, replace, defease or refund any
Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (1), shall not exceed the greater of (i) $2,700.0 million and (ii) four (4) times Consolidated EBITDA of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries for the 12-month period ended at the end of the most recent fiscal quarter for which financial statements are available, to be reduced
dollar-for-dollar by the aggregate amount of all Net Proceeds from Asset Sales applied by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to permanently repay
Indebtedness under the Credit Facilities pursuant to Section 4.10(e); 

  
 66 

 (2) the incurrence by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries of the
Existing Indebtedness; 
 (3) the incurrence by the Issuer and the Guarantors of Indebtedness represented by the Notes to be
issued on the date of this Indenture and the related Note Guarantees and any Exchange Notes (and guarantees thereof) issued in exchange for the Initial Notes pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement (other than any Additional Notes and the
related Note Guarantees); 
 (4) the incurrence by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness
represented by Capital Lease Obligations, FF&E Financing, mortgage financings or purchase money obligations or other Indebtedness, in each case, incurred in connection with capital expenditures or for the purpose of financing all or any part of
the purchase price or cost of design, construction, installation, renovation, repair, expansion, refurbishment or improvement of property, plant or equipment used or useful in the business of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, in an
aggregate principal amount, including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to renew, refund, refinance, replace, defease or discharge any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (4) not to exceed the greater of
(i) $400.0 million and (ii) 12% of Consolidated Tangible Assets; 
 (5) the incurrence by the Issuer or any of
its Restricted Subsidiaries of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in exchange for, or the net proceeds of which are used to renew, refund, refinance, replace, defease or discharge, any Indebtedness (other than intercompany Indebtedness) that was
permitted by this Indenture to be incurred under Section 4.09(a) or clauses (2), (3), (5) or (15) of this Section 4.09(b); 

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

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

  
 67 

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

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

(10) the incurrence by the Issuer or any of the Guarantors of Indebtedness in respect of bid, payment or other performance
bonds, surety bonds, release, appeal and similar bonds, statutory obligations, workers’ compensation claims, self-insurance obligations and bankers’ acceptances in the ordinary course of business,
and reimbursement obligations in respect of the foregoing; 
 (11) the incurrence by the Issuer or any of the Guarantors of
Indebtedness arising from the honoring by a bank or other financial institution of a check, draft or similar instrument inadvertently drawn against insufficient funds, so long as such Indebtedness is covered within five Business Days; 

(12) the incurrence by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries arising in connection with endorsement of instruments
for deposit in the ordinary course of business; 
 (13) the incurrence by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of
Indebtedness deemed to exist pursuant to the terms of a joint venture agreement as a result of a failure of the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary to make a required capital contribution therein; provided that the only recourse on such
Indebtedness is limited to the Issuer’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s equity interests in the related joint venture; 

(14) Indebtedness arising from agreements of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries providing for indemnification,
adjustment of purchase price or similar obligations, in each case, incurred or assumed in connection with the acquisition or disposition of any business, assets or a subsidiary, other than guarantees of Indebtedness incurred by any Person acquiring
all or any portion of such business, assets or subsidiary for the purpose of financing that acquisition; provided that: (a) such Indebtedness is not reflected at the time of such incurrence or assumption on the balance sheet of the
Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (contingent obligations referred to in a footnote or footnotes to financial statements and not otherwise reflected on the balance sheet will not be deemed to be reflected on that balance sheet for
purposes of this clause (a)); and (b) in the case of a disposition, the maximum assumable liability in respect of that Indebtedness shall at no time exceed the gross proceeds including non-cash
proceeds (the fair market value of those non-cash proceeds being measured at the time received and without giving effect to any subsequent changes in value), actually received by the Issuer and/or that
Restricted Subsidiary in connection with that disposition; 
 (15) Acquired Debt and other Indebtedness of Persons
outstanding on the date on which such Person became a Restricted Subsidiary or was acquired by, or merged into, the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or incurred or issued to finance a merger consolidation or other acquisition;
provided, however, that at the time such Person is acquired, either (i) the Issuer would have been able to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to Section 4.09(a) on a

  
 68 

 
pro forma basis after giving effect to the incurrence of such Acquired Debt or Indebtedness pursuant to this clause (15) or (ii) or on a pro forma basis, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio
of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries would be higher than such ratio immediately prior to such acquisition or merger; and 

(16) the incurrence by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount (or
accreted value, as applicable) at any time outstanding, including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to renew, refund, refinance, replace, defease or discharge any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (16) not to exceed
the greater of $400.0 million and 12.0% of Consolidated Tangible Assets; 
 (17) (i) Indebtedness representing deferred
compensation to employees of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries incurred in the ordinary course of business, and (ii) Indebtedness consisting of obligations of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries under deferred
compensation or other similar arrangements incurred by such Person in connection with any Investment permitted under Section 4.07; 

(18) Indebtedness consisting of the financing of insurance premiums; 

(19) Indebtedness owed to Capri Insurance Company in respect of premiums and reserves in an aggregate principal amount not to
exceed $25.0 million at any one time outstanding; and 
 (20) prior to the redemption of such Indebtedness pursuant to
an irrevocable notice of redemption delivered on the Escrow Release Date, the Existing Refinanced Indebtedness. 
 For purposes of
determining compliance with this Section 4.09, in the event that an item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (1) through (20) above, or is entitled to be
incurred pursuant to the first paragraph of this Section 4.09, the Issuer will be permitted to classify such item of Indebtedness on the date of its incurrence, or later reclassify all or a portion of such item of Indebtedness, in any manner
that complies with this Section 4.09. Indebtedness under the Senior Credit Facilities will initially be deemed to have been incurred on such date in reliance on the exception provided by clause (1) of the definition of Permitted Debt. If
obligations in respect of letters of credit are incurred pursuant to a Credit Facility and relate to other Indebtedness, then such letters of credit shall be treated as incurred pursuant to clause (1) of the definition of Permitted Debt. Except
as provided in the preceding sentence, Guarantees of, or obligations in respect of letters of credit relating to, Indebtedness that is otherwise included in the determination of a particular amount of Indebtedness shall not be included. In
connection with the incurrence or issuance, as applicable, of (x) revolving loan Indebtedness under this Section 4.09 or (y) any commitment relating to the incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock
under this Section 4.09 and the granting of any Lien to secure any such Indebtedness, the Issuer or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary may designate such incurrence or issuance and the granting of any such Lien as having occurred on the date
of first incurrence or issuance of such revolving loan Indebtedness or commitment (such date, the “Deemed Date”), and any related subsequent actual incurrence or issuance or granting of any such Lien therefor will be deemed for all
purposes under this Indenture to have been incurred or issued and granted on such Deemed Date, including, without limitation, for purposes of calculating the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio and usage of any other baskets or ratios under this Indenture
(as applicable). The accrual of interest or preferred stock dividends, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest on, or fees with respect to, any Indebtedness in the form of additional Indebtedness with the
same terms, the reclassification of preferred stock as Indebtedness due to a change in accounting principles, and the payment of dividends on preferred stock or Disqualified Stock in the form of additional shares of the same class of preferred stock

  
 69 

 
or Disqualified Stock will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness or an issuance of preferred stock or Disqualified Stock for purposes of this Section 4.09; provided, in
each such case, that the amount of any such accrual, accretion or payment shall be included in Fixed Charges of the Issuer as accrued. For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated
restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be utilized, calculated based on the relevant currency
exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was incurred. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.09, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary may incur pursuant to this
Section 4.09 shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in exchange rates or currency values. 
 The amount
of any Indebtedness outstanding as of any date will be: 
 (1) the accreted value of the Indebtedness determined on a
constant yield to maturity basis over time, in the case of any Indebtedness issued with original issue discount; 
 (2) the
principal amount of the Indebtedness, in the case of any other Indebtedness; 
 (3) in the case of a Guarantee of
Indebtedness, the maximum amount of the Indebtedness guaranteed under such Guarantee; and 
 (4) in respect of Indebtedness
of another Person secured by a Lien on the assets of the specified Person, the lesser of: 
 (A) the Fair Market Value of
such assets subject to such Lien at the date of determination; and 
 (B) the amount of the Indebtedness of the other Person
secured by such Lien. 
 Section 4.10 Asset Sales. 

(a) From and after the Effective Date, the Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale
unless: 
 (1) the Issuer (or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives consideration at the time of the Asset
Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value (measured as of the date of the definitive agreement with respect to such Asset Sale) of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of; and 

(2) at least 75% of the consideration received in the Asset Sale by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of
cash or Cash Equivalents. For purposes of this provision, each of the following will be deemed to be cash: 
 (A) any
liabilities, as shown on the Issuer’s most recent consolidated balance sheet, of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any Note Guarantee) that are assumed by the
transferee of any such assets pursuant to a customary novation or indemnity agreement that releases the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from, or indemnifies against, further liability; 

  
 70 

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

(C) any Designated Non-Cash Consideration received by the Issuer or such Restricted
Subsidiary in such Asset Sale having an aggregate fair market value, taken together with all other Designated Non-Cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (C) that is at the time outstanding,
not to exceed $150.0 million at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-Cash Consideration, with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Non-Cash
Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value; and 
 (D) any
stock or assets of the kind referred to in clauses (2), (3) or (4) of Section 4.10(b). 
 (b) Within 365 days after the
receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale, the Issuer (or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) may apply such Net Proceeds: 

(1) to permanently repay, prepay, redeem or purchase; 

(A) obligations under (i) the Senior Credit Facilities (and other than with respect to proceeds from the Designated Asset
Sale, permanently reduce commitments with respect thereto) and (ii) other secured Indebtedness of the Issuer, if applicable (other than any Disqualified Stock), or secured Indebtedness of a Guarantor; and/or 

(B) Obligations under this Indenture, the Notes and the Note Guarantees or any other Pari Passu Debt of the Issuer or any
Guarantor; provided that if the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary shall so repay or prepay any such other Pari Passu Debt, the Issuer will reduce (or offer to reduce) Obligations under this Indenture, the Notes and the Note Guarantees on a
pro rata basis (based on the amount so applied to such repayments or prepayments) by, at its option, (i) redeeming Notes pursuant to Article 3 of this Indenture, (ii) making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth
below for an Asset Sale Offer) to all holders to purchase their Notes at a purchase price of at least 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the amount of accrued but unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, thereon up to the principal
amount of Notes to be repurchased or (iii) purchasing Notes through privately negotiated transactions or open market purchases, in a manner that complies with this Indenture and applicable securities law; 

(2) to acquire all or substantially all of the assets of, or any Capital Stock of, another Permitted Business, if, after giving
effect to any such acquisition of Capital Stock, the Permitted Business is or becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer; 

(3) to improve real property or make a capital expenditure; 

(4) to acquire other assets that are used or useful in a Permitted Business; or 

(5) any combination of clauses (1) through (4) of this Section 4.10(b); 

provided, however, that if the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary contractually commits within such 365-day
period to apply the Net Proceeds within 180 days of entering into such contractual commitment in accordance with any of clauses (1) through (5) of this Section 4.10(b), and such Net Proceeds are subsequently applied as
contemplated by such contractual commitment, then the requirement for the application of Net Proceeds set forth in this paragraph shall be considered satisfied. 

  
 71 

 (c) [Reserved]. 

(d) Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds, the Issuer (or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary) may temporarily reduce revolving
credit borrowings or otherwise invest the Net Proceeds from Asset Sales in any manner that is not prohibited by this Indenture. 
 (e) Any
Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in Section 4.10(b) will constitute “Excess Proceeds.” Within 20 Business Days after the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $75.0 million,
the Issuer will make an offer (an “Asset Sale Offer”) to all holders of Notes (with copies to the Trustee) and all holders of other Pari Passu Debt containing provisions similar to those set forth in this Indenture with respect to
offers to purchase, prepay or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets to purchase, prepay or redeem the maximum principal amount of Notes and such other Pari Passu Debt (plus all accrued interest on the Indebtedness and the amount of all fees
and expenses, including premiums, incurred in connection therewith) that may be purchased, prepaid or redeemed out of the Excess Proceeds. The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid
interest and Additional Interest, if any, to the date of purchase, prepayment or redemption, subject to the rights of holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date, and will be payable in
cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuer may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other Pari Passu Debt
tendered into (or required to be prepaid or redeemed in connection with) such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Notes trustee will select the Notes and such other Pari Passu Debt to be purchased on a pro rata basis
or by lot (and, in the case of Notes in global form, in accordance with the Applicable Procedures), based on the amounts tendered or required to be prepaid or redeemed (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Issuer so that only
Notes in minimum denominations of $2,000, or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, will be left outstanding). Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero. 

(f) The Issuer will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other
securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with each repurchase of Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations
conflict with the provisions of this Section 4.10, the Issuer will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.10 by virtue of such compliance.

 Section 4.11 Transactions with Affiliates.  

(a) From and after the Effective Date, the Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any payment to or
sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for
the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Issuer involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $5.0 million (each, an “Affiliate Transaction”) unless: 

(1) the Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to the Issuer or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than
those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person; and 
  

  
 72 

 (2) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee with respect to any Affiliate
Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $20.0 million, a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Issuer set forth in an Officer’s Certificate certifying that such Affiliate
Transaction complies with clause (1) of this Section 4.11(a) and that such Affiliate Transaction has been approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of the Issuer 

(b) The following items will not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions and, therefore, will not be subject to the provisions of
Section 4.11(a) hereof: 
 (1) any indemnification or employment, consultancy, advisory, severance or separation
agreement, employee benefit plan or any similar arrangement, including any issuances of securities, loans or other payments, grants or awards, in each case in respect of or to employees, officers, directors, advisors or consultants entered into by
the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business and payments pursuant thereto; 
 (2)

 74 

 Section 4.12 Liens.  

(a) From and after the Effective Date, the Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly,
create, incur or assume any Lien, except a Permitted Lien on or with respect to any of its property or assets including any shares of stock or Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary, whether owned on the issue date or thereafter acquired, or any
income, profits or proceeds therefrom, unless: in the case of any Lien securing Indebtedness that is subordinate in right of payment to the Notes or the Guarantees, the Notes or the Guarantees are secured by a Lien on such property, assets or
proceeds that is senior in priority to such Lien, as long as such Indebtedness is secured by such Lien; and in all other cases, the Notes or the Guarantees, as the case may be, are secured on an equal and ratable basis with the obligations secured
by such Lien for so long as such obligations are secured by such Lien. 
 (b) For purposes of determining compliance with this
Section 4.12, (1) a Lien securing an item of Indebtedness need not be permitted solely by reference to one category of permitted Liens (or any portion thereof) described in the definition of “Permitted Liens” or pursuant to
Section 4.12(a), but may be permitted in part under any combination thereof and (2) in the event that a Lien securing an item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of one or more of the categories of permitted Liens
(or any portion thereof) described in the definition of “Permitted Liens” or pursuant to Section 4.12(a), the Issuer may, in its sole discretion, classify or reclassify, or later divide, classify or reclassify (as if incurred or
issued at such later time), such Lien securing such item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this Section 4.12 and at the time of incurrence, issuance, classification or reclassification will be entitled to
only include the amount and type of such Lien or such item of Indebtedness secured by such Lien (or any portion thereof) in one of the categories of permitted Liens (or any portion thereof) described in the definition of “Permitted Liens”
or pursuant to Section 4.12(a) and, in such event, such Lien securing such item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) will be treated as being incurred, issued or existing pursuant to only such clause or clauses (or any portion thereof) or
pursuant to Section 4.12(a) without giving pro forma effect to such item (or portion thereof) when calculating the amount of Liens or Indebtedness that may be incurred or issued pursuant to any other clause or paragraph (or portion thereof) at
such time. In addition, with respect to any revolving loan Indebtedness or commitment relating to the incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness that is designated to be incurred or issued on any date pursuant to Section 4.09(b)(4), any Lien that
does or that shall secure such Indebtedness may also be designated by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary to be incurred on such date and, in such event, any related subsequent actual incurrence of such Lien shall be deemed for all purposes
under this Indenture to be incurred on such prior date, including for purposes of calculating usage of any “Permitted Lien.” 
 (c)
With respect to any Lien securing Indebtedness that was permitted to secure such Indebtedness at the time of the incurrence or issuance of such Indebtedness, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness. The
“Increased Amount” of any Indebtedness shall mean any increase in the amount of such Indebtedness that is not deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of Section 4.09. 

Section 4.13 Business Activities.  

From and after the Effective Date, the Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, engage in any business other
than Permitted Businesses, except to such extent as would not be material to the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole. 

  
 75 

 Section 4.14 Corporate Existence. 

Subject to Article 5 hereof, the Issuer shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect: 

(1) its corporate existence, and the corporate, partnership or other existence of each of its Subsidiaries, in accordance with
the respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to time) of the Issuer or any such Subsidiary; and 

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

Section 4.15 Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control.  

(a) Upon the occurrence of (i) a Change of Control (if, at the Change of Control Time, the Notes do not have Investment Grade Status) or
(ii) a Change of Control Triggering Event (if, at the Change of Control Time, the Notes have Investment Grade Status), the Issuer will make an offer (a “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder to repurchase all or any part
(equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest and
Additional Interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased to the date of purchase, subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date (the “Change of Control
Payment”). Within 10 Business Days following any Change of Control, the Issuer will mail a notice to each Holder (with copies to the Trustee and Paying Agent) (or send electronically in accordance with the Applicable Procedures in the case
of Notes in global form) describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control and stating: 
 (1)
that the Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 4.15 and that all Notes tendered will be accepted for payment; 

(2) the purchase price and the purchase date, which shall be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date
such notice is mailed (the “Change of Control Payment Date”); 
 (3) that any Note not tendered will
continue to accrue interest; 
 (4) that, unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Payment, all
Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer will cease to accrue interest after the Change of Control Payment Date; 

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

  
 76 

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

(b) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful: 

(1) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; 

(2) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes
properly tendered; and 
 (3) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an
Officer’s Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Issuer. 
 (c) The
Paying Agent will promptly send (but in any case not later than five days after the Change of Control Payment Date) to each Holder of Notes properly tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate
and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry in accordance with the Applicable Procedures) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any. The Issuer will publicly announce the
results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date. 
 (d) Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in this Section 4.15, the Issuer will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if (1) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance
with the requirements set forth in this Section 4.15 and purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer, or (2) notice of redemption has been given pursuant to Section 3.07 hereof, unless and
until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price. 
 (e) If Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount
of the Notes then outstanding validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in a Change of Control Offer and the Issuer, or any third party making a Change of Control Offer in lieu of the Issuer as described in Section 4.15(d) hereof, purchases
all of the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Issuer or such third party 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 in Section 4.15(d) hereof, to redeem all Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not
including, the date of redemption (subject to the right of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date). 

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

(g) The Issuer will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other
securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with each repurchase of Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or
regulations conflict with the Change of Control provisions of this Section 4.15, the Issuer will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.15 by
virtue of such compliance. 

  
 77 

 Section 4.16 No Layering. 

From and after the Effective Date, the Issuer will not, and will not permit any Guarantor to, incur or suffer to exist Indebtedness that is
contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of the Issuer or such Guarantor, as the case may be, unless such Indebtedness is also contractually subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or such Guarantor’s
Guarantee, as the case may be. 
 Section 4.17 Suspension of Covenants. 

(a) During any period of time that: (i) the Notes have Investment Grade Status and (ii) no Default or Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing (the occurrence of the events described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) being collectively referred to as a “Covenant Suspension Event”), the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be subject
to the provisions of Sections 4.07, 4.09 and 4.10 (collectively, the “Suspended Covenants”). 
 (b) Upon the occurrence of a
Covenant Suspension Event, any Guarantees of the Subsidiary Guarantors, if any, will also be suspended as of such date (the “Suspension Date”). 

(c) In the event that the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries are not subject to the Suspended Covenants for any period of time as a result
of the foregoing, and, subsequently, at least one of the two designated Rating Agencies withdraws its rating or assigns the Notes a rating below the required Investment Grade Ratings (such date, the “Reversion Date”), then the
Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries will thereafter again be subject to the Suspended Covenants for the benefit of the Notes with respect to future events and the Guarantees, if any, of any Subsidiary Guarantors will be reinstated if such
guarantees are then required by the terms of this Indenture. The period of time between the Suspension Date and the Reversion Date is referred to in this Indenture as the “Suspension Period.” 

(d) On each Reversion Date, all Indebtedness incurred, or Disqualified Stock or preferred stock issued, during the Suspension Period will be
classified as having been incurred or issued pursuant to Section 4.09(a) or (b) (to the extent such Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock would be permitted to be Incurred or issued thereunder as of the Reversion Date and after
giving effect to Indebtedness Incurred or issued prior to the Suspension Period and outstanding on the Reversion Date). To the extent such Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock would not be so permitted to be incurred or issued
pursuant to Section 4.09(a) or (b), such Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock will be deemed to have been Existing Indebtedness, so that it is classified as permitted under Section 4.09(b)(ii). 

(e) Calculations made after the Reversion Date of the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under Section 4.07 will be made
as though such Section 4.07 had been in effect since the Effective Date and throughout the Suspension Period. Restricted Payments made during the Suspension Period will reduce the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under
Section 4.07(a). Notwithstanding that the Suspended Covenants may be reinstated, no Default or Event of Default will be deemed to have occurred on the Reversion Date solely as a result of any actions taken by the Issuer or its Restricted
Subsidiaries during the Suspension Period. For purposes of Section 4.10 on the Reversion Date, the unutilized Excess Proceeds amount will be reset to zero 

  
 78 

 (f) In the event that the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries are not subject to the
Suspended Covenants with respect to the Notes for any period of time as described above, during such period no Restricted Subsidiary may be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary. 

(g) The Issuer shall deliver promptly to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate notifying the Trustee of any Covenant Suspension Event or
Reversion Date, as the case may be, pursuant to this Section 4.17, and the Trustee may rely on such Officer’s Certificate without independent investigation. 

Section 4.18 Additional Note Guarantees.  

If the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries acquires or creates another Domestic Subsidiary after the date of this Indenture, then that
newly acquired or created Domestic Subsidiary will become a Guarantor and execute a supplemental indenture in form satisfactory to the Trustee within 15 Business Days after the date on which it was acquired or created (or such longer period of
time as may be required to obtain any necessary approvals under applicable Gaming Laws or other regulatory requirements). The Issuer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all approvals of any Gaming Authority necessary to permit a
Domestic Subsidiary to become a Guarantor as promptly as practicable. 
 Section 4.19 Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

 From and after the Effective Date, the Board of Directors of the Issuer may designate any Restricted Subsidiary to be an Unrestricted
Subsidiary if that designation would not cause a Default. If a Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate Fair Market Value of all outstanding Investments owned by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries in
the Subsidiary designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation and will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under Section 4.07 hereof or under one or more
clauses of the definition of Permitted Investments, as determined by the Issuer. That designation will only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time and if the Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an
Unrestricted Subsidiary. The Board of Directors of the Issuer may redesignate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if that redesignation would not cause a Default. 

Section 4.20 Escrow of Proceeds. 

(a) The Issuer shall apply the Escrow Property in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement. 

(b) On the date of this indenture, Escrow Issuer will enter into an escrow agreement (the “Escrow Agreement”) with JPMorgan
Chase Bank, N.A., as escrow agent (in such capacity, together with its successors, the “Escrow Agent”). Pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement, on the date of this Indenture, Escrow Issuer will deposit (or cause to be
deposited) in an account (the “Escrow Account”) with the Escrow Agent (i) the gross proceeds from the offering of the Notes and (ii) an additional amount in cash that, when taken together with the gross proceeds from the
offering of the Notes, is sufficient to fund a Special Mandatory Redemption of the Notes on October 31, 2018, if a Special Mandatory Redemption were to occur on such date (collectively and, together with any other property from time to time
held by the Escrow Agent in the Escrow Account the “Escrow Property”). In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement, unless Escrow Issuer has then directed the Escrow Agent to release the Escrow Property pursuant to
Section 4.20(d) or delivered notice to the Escrow Agent to the effect set forth in Section 3.11(a)(ii), on the date that is two Business Days prior to the first day of each month beginning on November 1, 2018, and ending on the first
day of the calendar month of the Termination Date unless the Escrow Release Date has occurred), Escrow Issuer will deposit (or cause to be deposited) cash into the Escrow Account in an amount equal to the lesser of (A) the amount of interest
that would accrue on the Notes 

  
 79 

 
during such next calendar month and (B) if the Termination Date (as defined below) had been extended and/or deferred either pursuant to Section 8.1(d) and/or Section 1.3 of the
Merger Agreement, as applicable, at least two (2) business days prior to the first day of such calendar month, the amount of interest that would accrue on the Notes from the first day of the next calendar month to, but not including, the
Termination Date (in each case, as calculated by Escrow Issuer in accordance with this Indenture). 
 (c) The Escrow Property will be held in
the Escrow Account until the earliest of (i) the date on which Escrow Issuer delivers to the Escrow Agent the Officer’s Certificate referred to in Section 3(b) of the Escrow Agreement, (ii) the Termination Date, (iii) the
date on which Escrow Issuer delivers notice to the Escrow Agent to the effect set forth in Section 3.11(a)(ii) and (iv) the date on which Escrow Issuer fails to timely deposit (or cause to be timely deposited) in cash such amounts required
by Section 4.20(b) on or prior to three Business Days after the applicable deposit date. 
 (d) Pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, the
Escrow Property will be released (the “Escrow Release”) to the Issuer within two Business Days after delivery by the Issuer to the Escrow Agent, not later than the Termination Date, of an Officers’ Certificate (in the form
included as Annex I to the Escrow Agreement) stating that the following conditions have been or, substantially concurrently with the release of the Escrow Property, will be satisfied (the date of the Escrow Release is hereinafter referred to as the
“Escrow Release Date”): 
 (1) the ERI-Tropicana Merger will occur
substantially concurrently with such release; and 
 (2) (A) Eldorado has assumed, or substantially concurrently with the
Escrow Release shall assume, all of the obligations of Escrow Issuer under the Notes and this Indenture and (B) the Guarantors shall have, by supplemental indenture, become, or substantially concurrently with the Escrow Release shall become,
parties to this Indenture in the capacities described herein. 
 (e) Escrow Issuer will grant the Trustee, for its benefit and the benefit of
the Holders, subject to certain liens of the Escrow Agent, a first-priority security interest in the Escrow Account and all specified cash equivalents therein to secure the payment of the Special Mandatory Redemption Price; provided, however, that
such lien and security interest shall automatically be released and terminate at such time as the Escrow Property is released from the Escrow Account on the Escrow Release Date. The Escrow Agent will invest the Escrowed Funds in such specified cash
equivalents, and liquidate such specified cash equivalents, as Escrow Issuer will from time to time direct in writing in accordance with the Escrow Agreement. 

Section 4.21 Limitation on Activities of Escrow Issuer Prior to Escrow Release Date. 

On the Issue Date, and prior to the consummation of the ERI-Tropicana Merger, Escrow Issuer’s
primary activities will be restricted to (i) performing its obligations in respect of the Notes, this Indenture and the Escrow Agreement, (ii) performing its obligations under the Merger Agreement and consummating the ERI-Tropicana Merger, (iii) redeeming the Notes, if applicable, pursuant to a Special Mandatory Redemption and (iv) conducting such other activities as are necessary or appropriate to carry out the
foregoing activities. 
 Section 4.22 Master Lease.  

Neither Eldorado nor Tenant (with respect to the Master Lease) or any tenant under an Additional Lease (with respect to any Additional Lease),
will terminate or allow or consent to the termination of the Master Lease or such Additional Lease, as applicable, or will enter into any amendment, waiver or 

  
 80 

 
modification to the Master Lease or such Additional Lease, as applicable that would materially impair the ability of Eldorado to satisfy its obligations to make payments on the Notes. No tenant
shall transfer its rights or obligations under the Master Lease or any Additional Lease, as applicable, to any Person other than to Eldorado or a Guarantor (or a Person that becomes a Guarantor in connection with such transaction pursuant to this
Indenture); provided, however, that no such transfer shall be permitted hereunder unless expressly permitted under the Master Lease or such Additional Lease or consented to in writing by the applicable Landlord.

 (4) the Issuer or the Successor would, on the date of such
transaction after giving pro forma effect thereto and any related financing transactions as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period (a) be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional
Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in Section 4.09(a); or (b) have had a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio equal to or greater than the actual Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the Issuer for such four quarter

such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such consolidation, merger, sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other
disposition, the provisions of this Indenture referring to the “Issuer” shall refer instead to the successor Person and not to the Issuer), and may exercise every right and power of such Issuer under this Indenture with the same effect as
if such successor Person had been named as the Issuer herein; provided, however, that the predecessor Issuer shall not be relieved from the obligation to pay the principal of, premium on, if any, and interest and Additional Interest, if any,
on, the Notes except in the case of a sale of all of such Issuer’s assets in a transaction that is subject to, and that complies with the provisions of, Section 5.01 hereof.

 (A) is
caused by a failure to pay principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on, if any, such Indebtedness prior to the expiration of the grace period provided in such Indebtedness on the date of such default (a “Payment Default”); or

  

  
 82 

 (B) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express
maturity, 
 and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such
Indebtedness under which there has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $100.0 million or more; 

(6) failure by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to pay final judgments entered by a court or courts of
competent jurisdiction in an uninsured aggregate amount in excess of $100.0 million, which judgments are not paid, waived, satisfied, discharged or stayed, for a period of 60 days; 

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

(8) any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding with respect to the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a
Significant Subsidiary or any group of its Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary; and 

(9) after the effectiveness thereof, the Master Lease or any Additional Lease shall terminate or otherwise cease to be
effective, other than upon the expiration or termination thereof with respect to any particular property or properties pursuant to the Master Lease or an amendment, waiver or modification of the Master Lease or any Additional Lease not prohibited by
Section 4.22. 
 Section 6.02 Acceleration. 

In the case of an Event of Default specified in clause 8 of Section 6.01 hereof, with respect to either the Issuer or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable immediately without
further action or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes (with a copy to the Trustee if given by the Holders) may declare all the
Notes to be due and payable immediately. 
 The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by notice
to the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, rescind an acceleration or waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences hereunder, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of,
premium on, if any, or interest and Additional Interest, if any on the Notes. 
 Section 6.03 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
on, if any, or interest and Additional Interest, if any, on, the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes, the Note Guarantees or this Indenture. 

  
 83 

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

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of the
Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences hereunder, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest and Additional Interest, if
any, on, the Notes (including in connection with an Asset Sale Offer or a Change of Control Offer); provided, however, that the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes may rescind an
acceleration and its consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from such acceleration. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for
every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 

Section 6.05 Control by Majority. 

Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any
proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on it. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture that the Trustee determines may be
unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders of Notes or that may involve the Trustee in personal liability. The Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction. 

The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default if it determines that withholding
notice is in their interest, except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal of, premium on, if any, and interest and Additional Interest, if any. 

Section 6.06 Limitation on Suits. 

Subject to Section 7.01, in case an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of
the rights or powers under this Indenture at the request or direction of any Holders of Notes unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense. Except to enforce
the right to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest (including Additional Interest) when due, no Holder of a Note may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless: 

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

(2) Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes have requested the Trustee to pursue
the remedy in writing; 
 (3) such Holders offered the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against any loss, liability
or expense; 

  
 84 

 (4) the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the
receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity; and 
 (5) Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount
of the then-outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period. 

A Holder of a Note may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder of a Note or to obtain a preference or priority over
another Holder of a Note. 
 Notwithstanding clause (4) of Section 6.01 hereof, except as provided in the second to last sentence
of this paragraph, the sole remedy for any failure to comply by the Issuer with Section 4.03 hereof shall be the payment of liquidated damages as described in the following sentence, such failure to comply shall not constitute an Event of
Default, and Holders of the Notes shall not have any right under this Indenture to accelerate the maturity of the Notes as a result of any such failure to comply. If a failure to comply by the Issuer with Section 4.03 hereof continues for 60
days after the Issuer receives notice of such failure to comply in accordance with clause (4) of the first paragraph of Section 6.01 hereof (such notice, the “Reports Default Notice”), and is continuing on the 60th day
following the Issuer’s receipt of the Reports Default Notice, the Issuer will pay liquidated damages to all Holders of Notes at a rate per annum equal to 0.25% of the principal amount of the Notes from the 60th day following the Issuer’s
receipt of the Reports Default Notice to but not including the earlier of (x) the 121st day following the Issuer’s receipt of the Reports Default Notice and (y) the date on which the failure to comply by the Issuer with
Section 4.03 hereof shall have been cured or waived. On the earlier of the dates specified in the immediately preceding clauses (x) and (y), such liquidated damages will cease to accrue. If the failure to comply by the Issuer with
Section 4.03 hereof shall not have been cured or waived on or before the 121st day following the Issuer’s receipt of the Reports Default Notice, then the failure to comply by the Issuer with Section 4.03 hereof shall on such 121st day
constitute an Event of Default. A failure to comply with Section 4.03 hereof automatically shall cease to be continuing and shall be deemed cured at such time as the Issuer furnishes to the Trustee the applicable information or report (it being
understood that the availability of such information or report on the Commission’s EDGAR service (or any successor thereto) shall be deemed to satisfy the Issuer’s obligation to furnish such information or report to the Trustee);
provided, however, that the Trustee shall have no obligation whatsoever to determine whether or not such information, documents or reports have been filed pursuant to the EDGAR service (or its successor). 

Section 6.07 Rights of Holders of Notes to Receive Payment. 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Note to receive payment of principal of, premium on, if
any, or interest and Additional Interest, if any, on, the Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Note (including in connection with an offer to purchase), or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such
respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder; provided that a Holder shall not have the right to institute any such suit for the enforcement or payment if and to the extent that the institution or
prosecution thereof or the entry of judgment therein would, under applicable law, result in the surrender, impairment, waiver or loss of the Lien of this Indenture upon any property subject to such Lien. 

Section 6.08 Collection Suit by Trustee. 

If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(1) or (2) hereof occurs and is continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover
judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer for the whole amount of principal of, premium on, if any, and interest and Additional Interest, if any, remaining unpaid on, the Notes and interest on overdue principal
and, to the extent lawful, interest and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

  
 85 

 Section 6.09 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 

The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the
claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer (or any
other obligor upon the Notes), its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any custodian in any such judicial
proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by
a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or
arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes
or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding. The Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders, vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar official and be a
member of a creditors’ or other similar committee. 
 Section 6.10 Priorities. 

After an Event of Default any moneys or properties distributable in respect of the Issuer’s or any Guarantor’s obligations under this
Indenture, or if the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article 6, shall be paid out or distributed in the following order: 

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

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

Third: to the Issuer or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct. 

The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders of Notes pursuant to this Section 6.10. 

  
 86 

 Section 6.11 Undertaking for Costs. 

In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted
by it as a Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’
fees, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 6.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder of a Note pursuant
to Section 6.07 hereof, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes. 
 Section 6.12
Remedies Subject to Applicable Law. 
 All rights, remedies and powers provided by this Article 6 may be exercised only to the
extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable provision of law, and all the provisions of this Indenture are intended to be subject to all applicable laws, including applicable Gaming Laws, and to be limited to the extent
necessary so that they will not render this Indenture invalid, unenforceable or not entitled to be recorded, registered or filed under the provisions of any applicable law. 

ARTICLE 7 
 TRUSTEE 

Section 7.01 Duties of Trustee. 
 (a)
If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee will exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under
the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs. 
 (b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default: 

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

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

(c) The Trustee may not be relieved from liabilities for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful
misconduct, except that: 
 (1) this paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section 7.01;

 (2) the Trustee will not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it is
proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and 
 (3) the Trustee will not be liable with
respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.05 hereof. 

  
 87 

 (d) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture that in
any way relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a), (b), and (c) of this Section 7.01. 
 (e) No provision of this
Indenture will require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or incur any liability. The Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights and powers under this Indenture at the request or direction of any Holders, unless such
Holder has offered to the Trustee security and indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense. 
 (f) The
Trustee will not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the Issuer. Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 

(g) The Trustee shall not be responsible for, and makes no representation as to any Gaming Law or any Gaming Authority, whether any holder or
beneficial owner of Notes could be licensed, qualified or found suitable under any Gaming Law or by any Gaming Authority, and any consequence to any Holder or beneficial owner of Notes under any Gaming Law or by any Gaming Authority. 

Section 7.02 Rights of Trustee. 
 (a)
The Trustee may conclusively rely upon any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document. 

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

(c) The Trustee may act through its attorneys and agents and will not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent appointed
with due care. 
 (d) The Trustee will not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith that it believes to be authorized
or within the rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture. The permissive right of the Trustee to do things enumerated in this Indenture shall not be construed as a duty of the Trustee. 

(e) Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Indenture, any demand, request, direction or notice from the Issuer will be sufficient if
signed by an Officer of the Issuer. 
 (f) The Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by
this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security satisfactory to the Trustee against the losses, liabilities and expenses that might be incurred by it in
compliance with such request or direction. 
 (g) The Trustee shall not be required to give a note, bond or surety in respect of the trusts
and powers under this Indenture. 
 (h) Delivery of reports, information and documents to the Trustee described in Section 4.03 of this
Indenture is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained

  
 88 

 
therein, including the Issuer’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely conclusively on Officer’s Certificates). The Trustee is
under no duty to examine such reports, information or documents to ensure compliance with the provision of this Indenture or to ascertain the correctness or otherwise of the information or the statements contained therein. 

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

(j) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual
knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a default is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references the Notes and this Indenture. 

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

Section 7.03 Individual Rights of Trustee. 

The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or any
Affiliate of the Issuer with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest (as defined in Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended) it must
eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as trustee (if this Indenture has been qualified under the TIA) or resign. Any Agent may do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee is also subject to
Section 7.10 and Section 7.11 hereof. 
 Section 7.04 Trustee’s Disclaimer. 

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

If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if the Trustee has notice (in accordance with Section 7.02(j)), the Trustee
will mail to Holders of Notes a notice of the 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, premium on, if any, or interest and Additional Interest, if
any, on, any Note, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of the Holders of the Notes. 

  
 89 

 Section 7.06 Reports by Trustee to Holders of the Notes. 

(a) Within 60 days after each April 15 beginning with the April 15, 2016, and for so long as Notes remain outstanding, the Trustee
will send to the Holders of the Notes a brief report dated as of such reporting date that complies with TIA §313(a) (but if no event described in TIA § 313(a) has occurred within the 12 months preceding the reporting date, no report need
be transmitted). The Trustee also will comply with TIA § 313(b)(2). The Trustee will also send all reports as required by TIA § 313(c). 

(b) A copy of each report at the time of its delivery to the Holders of Notes will be sent by the Trustee to the Issuer and filed by the
Trustee with the SEC and each stock exchange on which the Notes are listed in accordance with TIA § 313(d). The Issuer will promptly notify the Trustee in writing when the Notes are listed on any stock exchange or delisted therefrom. 

Section 7.07 Compensation and Indemnity. 

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

(b) The Issuer and the Guarantors will jointly and severally indemnify the Trustee against any and all losses, liabilities or expenses
(including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by it arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Indenture or the exercise of its rights and powers under this Indenture, the Notes
and the Guarantees, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Issuer and the Guarantors (including this Section 7.07) and defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Issuer, the Guarantors, any
Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, except to the extent any such loss, liability or expense may be attributable to its gross negligence or willful
misconduct. The Trustee will notify the Issuer promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Issuer will not relieve the Issuer or any of the Guarantors of their obligations hereunder. Such Issuer or
such Guarantor will defend the claim and the Trustee will cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Issuer will pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. Neither the Issuer nor any Guarantor need pay for any
settlement made without its consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. References in this paragraph 7.06(b) shall include the Trustee and its officers, directors, employees and agents. 

(c) The obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantors under this Section 7.07 will survive the (i) satisfaction and discharge of this
Indenture and (ii) resignation or removal of the Trustee. 
 (d) To secure the Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ payment
obligations in this Section 7.07, the Trustee will have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal of, premium on, if any, or interest and Additional Interest,
if any, on, particular Notes. Such Lien will survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 
 (e) When the Trustee incurs
expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(7) or (8) hereof occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to
constitute expenses of administration under the Bankruptcy Code. 

  
 90 

 (f) “Trustee” for the purposes of this Section 7.07 shall include any
predecessor Trustee and the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder and each agent, custodian and other person employed to act hereunder; provided, however, that the negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of any Trustee
hereunder shall not affect the rights of any other Trustee hereunder. 
 Section 7.08 Replacement of Trustee. 

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

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

(4) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting. 

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

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

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

  
 91 

 Section 7.09 Successor Trustee by Merger, etc. 

If the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to another
corporation, the successor corporation without any further act will be the successor Trustee. 
 Section 7.10 Eligibility; Disqualification.

 There will at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of
America or of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities and that has a combined capital and surplus of at least
$100.0 million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. This Indenture will always have a Trustee who satisfies the requirements of TIA § 310(a)(1), (2) and (5). The Trustee is subject to TIA § 310(b).

 Section 7.11 Preferential Collection of Claims Against Issuer. 

The Trustee is subject to TIA § 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA § 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or
been removed shall be subject to TIA § 311(a) to the extent indicated therein. 
 Section 7.12 Escrow Authorization. 

Each Holder, by its acceptance of a Note, consents and agrees to the terms of the Escrow Agreement, including related documents thereto, as the
same may be in effect or may be amended from time to time in writing by the parties thereto, and authorizes and directs the Trustee to enter into the Escrow Agreement, binding the Holders to the terms thereof and to perform its obligations and
exercise its rights thereunder in accordance herewith and therewith. The Issuer shall do or cause to be done all such acts and things as may be necessary or proper, or as may be required by the provisions of the Escrow Agreement, to assure and
confirm to the Trustee the security interest contemplated by the Escrow Agreement or any part thereof, as from time to time constituted, so as to render the same available for the security and benefit of this Indenture and of the Notes, according to
the intent and purpose herein expressed. The Issuer shall take, or shall cause to be taken, any and all actions reasonably required to cause the Escrow Agreement to create and maintain, as security for the obligations of the Issuer under this
Indenture and the Notes as provided in the Escrow Agreement, valid and enforceable first priority perfected liens in and on all the Escrow Property, in favor of the Trustee for its benefit and the ratable benefit of the Holders, superior to and
prior to the rights of third Persons and subject to no other Liens. 
 ARTICLE 8

Section 8.01 Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 

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

Section 8.02 Legal Defeasance and Discharge. 

Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, the Issuer and each of the

(including the Note Guarantees) on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the
Issuer and the Guarantors will be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes (including the Note Guarantees), which will thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of
Section 8.05 hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses (1) and (2) below, and to have satisfied all their other obligations under such Notes, the Note Guarantees and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand
of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which will survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: 

(1) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, premium on, if any, or
interest and Additional Interest, if any, on, such Notes when such payments are due from the trust referred to in Section 8.05 hereof; 

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

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

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

Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Issuer and each of the
Guarantors will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be released from each of their obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.15, 4.16, 4.18,
4.19 and 4.20 hereof and clause (4) of Section 5.01 hereof with respect to the outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant
Defeasance”), and the Notes will thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants,
but will continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes will not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to
the outstanding Notes and Note Guarantees, the Issuer and the Guarantors may omit to comply with and will have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of
any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply will not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under
Section 6.01 hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes and Note Guarantees will be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option
applicable to this Section 8.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, Sections 6.01(3), (4), (5), (6) and (7) hereof will not constitute Events of Default. 

  
 93 

 Section 8.04 Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. 

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

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

(2) in the case of an election under Section 8.02 hereof, the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in
form reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that: 
 (A) the Issuer has received from, or there has been published
by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling; or 
 (B) since the date of this Indenture, there has been a change in the
applicable federal income tax law, 
 in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the
Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as
would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred; 
 (3) in the case of an election under Section 8.03
hereof, the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in form reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a
result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred; 

(4) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or
Event of Default resulting from transactions occurring substantially contemporaneously with the borrowing of funds, or from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit (and any similar concurrent deposit relating to other Indebtedness), and
the granting of Liens to secure such borrowings); 
 (5) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a
breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture and the agreements governing any other Indebtedness being defeased, discharged or replaced) to which the Issuer or any of the
Guarantors is a party or by which the Issuer or any of the Guarantors is bound; 
 (6) The Issuer must deliver to the Trustee
an Officer’s Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuer with the intent of preferring the Holders of Notes over the other creditors of the Issuer with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any creditors
of the Issuer or others; and 
 (7) The Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of
Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with. 

  
 94 

 Section 8.05 Deposited Money and Government Securities to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous
Provisions. 
 Subject to Section 8.06 hereof, all money and non-callable Government
Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof in respect of the
outstanding Notes will be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including an Issuer acting as Paying Agent) as the
Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest and Additional Interest, if any, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to
the extent required by law. 
 The Issuer will pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed
against the cash or non-callable Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge
which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes. 
 Notwithstanding anything in this Article 8 to the contrary, the
Trustee will deliver or pay to the Issuer from time to time upon the request of the Issuer any money or non-callable Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 8.04 hereof which, in the
opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(1) hereof), are in excess of the amount
thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 
 Section 8.06 Repayment to
Issuer. 
 Subject to applicable abandoned property laws, money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the
Issuer, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium on, if any, or interest and Additional Interest, if any, on, any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium, if any, or interest and Additional Interest, if
any, has become due and payable shall be paid to the Issuer on its request or (if then held by the Issuer) will be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note will thereafter be permitted to look only to the Issuer for payment thereof,
and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Issuer as trustee thereof, will thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being
required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Issuer cause to be published once, in the New York Times and The Wall Street Journal (national edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified
therein, which will not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Issuer. 

Section 8.07 Reinstatement. 
 If the
Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any U.S. dollars or non-callable Government Securities in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of
any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ obligations under this Indenture and the Notes and the Note Guarantees will be revived and
reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be;
provided, however, that, if an Issuer makes any payment of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest and Additional Interest, if any, on, any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer will be subrogated to the
rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

 ARTICLE 9 

AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER 

Section 9.01 Without Consent of Holders of Notes. 

Notwithstanding Section 9.02 of this Indenture, without the consent of any Holder of Notes, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee may
amend or supplement any of the Note Documents: 
 (1) to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency; 

(2) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes; 

(3) to provide for the assumption of the Issuer’s or a Guarantor’s obligations to the Holders of the Notes and Note
Guarantees by a successor to such Issuer or such Guarantor pursuant to Article 5 or Article 10 hereof; 
 (4) to comply with
the rules of any applicable securities depository; 
 (5) to make any change that would provide any additional rights or
benefits to the Holders of the Notes and, in each case, the release, suspension or termination thereof, or that does not adversely affect the legal rights hereunder of any such Holder; 

(6) to conform the text of this Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees to any provision of the “Description of the
notes” section of the Offering Memorandum, to the extent that such provision in that “Description of the notes” was intended to be a verbatim recitation of a provision of this Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees, which intent
may be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate to that effect; 
 (7) to release the Note Guarantee of a Guarantor in
accordance with the terms of this Indenture; 
 (8) to allow any Guarantor to execute a supplemental indenture and/or a Note
Guarantee with respect to the Notes; 
 (9) to provide for the issuance of Additional Notes in accordance with the
limitations set forth in this Indenture as of the date hereof; 
 (10) to comply with requirements of the SEC in order to
effect or maintain the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA; 
 (11) to comply with requirements of applicable
Gaming Laws or to provide for requirements imposed by applicable Gaming Authorities; or 
 (12) to provide for the acceptance
or appointment of a successor trustee. 
 Upon the request of an Issuer accompanied by a resolution of the Issuer’s Board of Directors
authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02 hereof, the Trustee will join with the Issuer and the Guarantors in the execution of any amended
or supplemental indenture authorized or permitted by the terms of this Indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee will not be obligated to enter into such amended or
supplemental indenture that affects its 

  
 96 

 
own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither an Opinion of Counsel nor an Officer’s Certificate, nor a board resolution, shall
be required in connection with (i) the Eldorado Assumption upon execution and delivery by the Issuer, each initial Guarantor and the Trustee of a supplemental indenture to this Indenture, the form of which is attached as Exhibit D hereto or
(ii) the addition of a Guarantor under this Indenture upon execution and delivery by such Guarantor and the Trustee of a supplemental indenture to this Indenture, the form of which is attached as Exhibit F hereto. 

Section 9.02 With Consent of Holders of Notes. 

Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee and the Escrow Agent (if applicable) may amend
or supplement this Indenture (including, without limitation, Section 3.10, 3.11, 4.10 and 4.15 hereof) and the Notes, the Note Guarantees and the Escrow Agreement with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the then-outstanding Notes (including, without limitation, Additional Notes, if any) voting as a single class (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for Notes),
and, subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof, any existing Default or Event of Default (other than a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium on, if any, or interest and Additional Interest, if any, on, the Notes,
except a payment default resulting from an acceleration that has been rescinded) or compliance with any provision of this Indenture, the Notes, or the Note Guarantees may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the then-outstanding Notes (including, without limitation, Additional Notes, if any) voting as a single class (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for,
Notes). Section 2.08 hereof shall determine which Notes are considered to be “outstanding” for purposes of this Section 9.02. 

Upon the request of either Issuer accompanied by a resolution of either of its Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any such
amended or supplemental indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders of Notes as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02
hereof, the Trustee will join with the Issuer and the Guarantors in the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture unless such amended or supplemental indenture directly affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this
Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but will not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental Indenture. 

It is not necessary for the consent of the Holders of Notes under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed
amendment, supplement or waiver, but it is sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. 
 After an amendment, supplement or
waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Issuer will send to the Holders of Notes affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Issuer to mail such notice, or any defect
therein, will not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental indenture or waiver. Subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then
outstanding voting as a single class may waive compliance in a particular instance by the Issuer with any provision of this Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees. However, without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment, supplement
or waiver under this Section 9.02 may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder): 

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

  
 97 

 (2) reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any Note or the
premium payable in connection with the redemption of the Notes; 
 (3) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of
interest, including default interest or Additional Interest, on any Note; 
 (4) waive a Default or Event of Default in the
payment of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest and Additional Interest, if any, on, the Notes (except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding
Notes and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration); 
 (5) make any Note payable in money other
than that stated in the Notes; 
 (6) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to waivers of past
Defaults or the rights of Holders of Notes to receive payments of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest and Additional Interest, if any, on, the Notes; 

(7) waive a redemption payment with respect to any Note (other than a payment required by Sections 3.10, 3.11, 4.10 or 4.15
hereof); 
 (8) contractually subordinate the Notes or the Guarantees to any other Indebtedness; or 

(9) make any change in the preceding amendment and waiver provisions. 

Section 9.03 Compliance with TIA. 

Every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Notes will be set forth in an amended or supplemental indenture that complies with the
TIA as then in effect. 
 Section 9.04 Revocation and Effect of Consents. 

Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a
Note and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder of a
Note may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms
and thereafter binds every Holder. 
 The Issuer may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the
Holders entitled to give their consent or take any other action described above or required or permitted to be taken pursuant to this Indenture. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the immediately preceding paragraph, those Persons who
were Holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to give such consent or to revoke any consent previously given or to take any such action, whether or not such Persons continue to be
Holders after such record date. 
 Section 9.05 Notation on or Exchange of Notes. 

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

  
 98 

 Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note will not affect the validity
and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver. 
 Section 9.06 Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc. 

The Trustee will sign any amended or supplemental indenture authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment or supplement does not
adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. The Issuer may not sign an amended or supplemental indenture until its Board of Directors approves it. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture, the Trustee
will be entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof) will be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 13.04 hereof, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that
the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture, and an Opinion of Counsel that it will be valid and binding upon the Issuer and Guarantors in accordance with its terms, subject to customary
exceptions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither an Opinion of Counsel nor an Officer’s Certificate, nor a resolution, shall be required for the Trustee to execute any supplemental indenture to this Indenture, (i) the form of which is
attached as Exhibit D hereto giving effect to the Eldorado Assumption and adding each of the initial Guarantors as Guarantors under this Indenture or (ii) the form of which is attached as Exhibit F hereto adding a new Guarantor under this
Indenture. 
 ARTICLE 10 
 NOTE
GUARANTEES 
 Section 10.01 Guarantee. 

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

(1) the principal of, premium on, if any, and interest and Additional Interest, if any, on, the Notes will be promptly paid in
full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of, premium on, if any, and interest and Additional Interest, if any, on, the Notes, if lawful, and all other obligations of the
Issuer to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder will be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and 

(2) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same will be
promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. 

Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors will be jointly and
severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection. 

(b) The Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder are unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability
of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuer, any action to enforce
the same or any 

  
 99 

 
other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of
claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenant that this Note Guarantee will not be discharged except by
complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture. 
 (c) If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any
court or otherwise to return to the Issuer, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Issuer or the Guarantors, any amount paid by either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Note
Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, will be reinstated in full force and effect. 
 (d) Each Guarantor agrees that it will not
be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one
hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (1) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 hereof for the purposes of this Note Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or
other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (2) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6 hereof, such obligations (whether or not due
and payable) will forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Note Guarantee. The Guarantors will have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the
exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Note Guarantee. 
 Section 10.02 Limitation on Guarantor Liability.

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

Section 10.03 Execution and Delivery of Note Guarantee. 

To evidence its Note Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 hereof, each Guarantor hereby agrees that a notation of such Note Guarantee
substantially in the form attached as Exhibit E hereto will be endorsed by an Officer of such Guarantor on each Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and that this Indenture will be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by one of its
Officers. 
 Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Note Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 hereof will remain in full force and
effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Note Guarantee. 

  
 100 

 If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture or on the Note Guarantee no longer holds
that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note on which a Note Guarantee is endorsed, the Note Guarantee will be valid nevertheless. 

The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, will constitute due delivery of the Note Guarantee set
forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors. 
 In the event that the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries creates or
acquires any Subsidiary after the date of this Indenture, if required by Section 4.18 hereof, the Issuer will cause such Restricted Subsidiary to comply with the provisions of Section 4.18 hereof and this Article 10, to the extent
applicable. 
 Section 10.04 Guarantors May Consolidate, etc., on Certain Terms. 

Except as otherwise provided in Section 10.05 hereof, no Guarantor may sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets
to, or consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving Person) another Person, other than an Issuer or another Guarantor, unless: 

(1) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists; 

(2) either: 

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

(B) the Net Proceeds of such sale or other disposition are applied in accordance with the applicable provisions of this
Indenture, including without limitation, Section 4.10 hereof. 
 In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance and upon
the assumption by the successor Person, by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory in form to the Trustee, of the Note Guarantee endorsed upon the Notes and the due and punctual performance of all of the
covenants and conditions of this Indenture to be performed by the Guarantor, such successor Person will succeed to and be substituted for the Guarantor with the same effect as if it had been named herein as a Guarantor. Such successor Person
thereupon may cause to be signed any or all of the Note Guarantees to be endorsed upon all of the Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Issuer and delivered to the Trustee. All the Note Guarantees so issued
will in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Note Guarantees theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Note Guarantees had been issued at the date
of the execution hereof. 
 Except as set forth in Articles 4 and 5 hereof, and notwithstanding clauses 2(A) and (B) above, nothing
contained in this Indenture or in any of the Notes will prevent any consolidation or merger of a Guarantor with or into an Issuer or another Guarantor, or will prevent any sale or conveyance of the property of a Guarantor as an entirety or
substantially as an entirety to such Issuer or another Guarantor. 
  

  
 101 

 Section 10.05 Releases. 

The Note Guarantee of a Guarantor will be released: 

(1) in connection with any sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of that Guarantor (including by
way of merger or consolidation) to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer, if the sale or other disposition does not violate Sections 3.10 or 4.10 hereof;

 (2) in connection with any sale or other disposition of Capital Stock of that Guarantor to a Person that is not (either
before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer, if the sale or other disposition does not violate Sections 3.10 or 4.10 hereof and the Guarantor ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the
Issuer as a result of the sale or other disposition; 
 (3) if the Issuer designates any Restricted Subsidiary that is a
Guarantor to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with Section 4.19 hereof; 
 (4) upon Legal Defeasance or
Covenant Defeasance in accordance with Article 8 hereof or Satisfaction and Discharge of this Indenture in accordance with Article 11 hereof; or 

(5) upon the dissolution of a Guarantor if its assets are distributed to the Issuer or another Guarantor. 

Upon delivery to the Trustee of an Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the conditions set forth in clauses
(1) through (5) hereof, as applicable, have been complied with, the Trustee, at the Issuer’s expense, will execute any documents reasonably requested by the Issuer to evidence the release of the applicable Note Guarantee. 

Any Guarantor not released from its obligations under its Note Guarantee as provided in this Section 10.05 will remain liable for the
full amount of principal of, premium on, if any, and interest, if any, on, the Notes and for the other obligations of any Guarantor under this Indenture as provided in this Article 10. 

ARTICLE 11 
 SATISFACTION AND
DISCHARGE 
 Section 11.01 Satisfaction and Discharge. 

This Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect as to all Notes issued hereunder, when: 

(1) either: 

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

(B) all Notes that have not been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable by reason of the mailing
of a notice of redemption or otherwise or will become due and payable within one year (or are to be irrevocably called for redemption within one year) and the Issuer or any Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the
Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination of cash in U.S. dollars and
non-callable Government Securities, in amounts as will be sufficient, without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Notes not delivered to the
Trustee for cancellation for principal of, premium on if any, and accrued interest and Additional Interest, if any, to the date of maturity or redemption; 

  
 102 

 (2) any Issuer has or any Guarantor has paid or caused to be paid all sums
payable by them under this Indenture; and 
 (3) the Issuer has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee under this
Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at maturity or on the redemption date, as the case may be. 
 In addition, the Issuer
must deliver an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been complied with. 

The satisfaction and discharge will be effective on the day on which all the applicable conditions above have been satisfied. Upon compliance
with the foregoing, the Trustee shall execute, at the Issuer’s expense, proper instrument(s) acknowledging the satisfaction and discharge of all of the Issuer’s Obligations under the Notes and this Indenture. 

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money has been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause
(B) of clause (1) of this Section 11.01, the provisions of Sections 11.02 and 8.06 hereof will survive. In addition, nothing in this Section 11.01 will be deemed to discharge those provisions of Section 7.06 hereof, that, by
their terms, survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 
 Section 11.02 Application of Trust Money. 

Subject to the provisions of Section 8.06 hereof, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 11.01 hereof shall be held
in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including an Issuer acting as their own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the
Persons entitled thereto, of the principal, premium, if any, and interest and Additional Interest, if any, for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee; but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent
required by law. 
 If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Government Securities in accordance with
Section 11.01 hereof by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Issuer’s and any Guarantor’s
obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 11.01 hereof; provided that if the Issuer has made any payment of principal of, premium on, if any, or
interest and Additional Interest, if any, on, any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or Government Securities held
by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

 Capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below
unless otherwise indicated. 
 (1) INTEREST. Delta Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the “Issuer”), promises to pay or cause to be paid interest on the principal amount of this Note at 6% per annum from September 20, 2018 until maturity. The Issuer will pay interest, if any, semi-annually in
arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an “Interest Payment Date”). Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent
date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance; provided that, if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date,
interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date; provided further that the first Interest Payment Date shall be March 15, 2019. The Issuer will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under
the Bankruptcy Code) on overdue principal at a rate that is 1% per annum higher than the then applicable interest rate on the Notes to the extent lawful; it will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy
Code) on overdue installments of interest and Additional Interest, if any (without regard to any applicable grace period), at the same rate to the extent lawful. 

Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. 
 (2) METHOD OF
PAYMENT. The Issuer will pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) and Additional Interest, if any, to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on the March 1 or
September 1 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted
interest. The Notes will be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and interest and Additional Interest, if any, at the office or agency of the Paying Agent and Registrar, or, at the option of the Issuer, payment of interest and Additional
Interest, if any, may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders; provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of, premium
on, if any, and interest and Additional Interest, if any, on, all Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which will have provided wire transfer instructions to the Issuer or the Paying Agent. Such payment will be in such coin or currency of
the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; 
 (3)
PAYING AGENT AND REGISTRAR. Initially, U.S. Bank National Association, the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Issuer may change
the Paying Agent or Registrar without prior notice to the Holders of the Notes. The Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar. 

  
 A-4 

 (4) INDENTURE. The Issuer issued the
Notes under an Indenture dated as of September 20, 2018 (the “Indenture”) among the Issuer and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the
TIA. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture for a statement of such terms. The Notes are unsecured obligations of the Issuer. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions
of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of Notes that may be issued thereunder. The Issuer shall be entitled to issue Additional Notes pursuant to
Section 2.01 and Section 4.09 of the Indenture. The Notes and any Additional Notes issued under the Indenture shall be treated as a single class of securities under the Indenture. 

(5) OPTIONAL REDEMPTION. 

(a) At any time prior to September 15, 2021, the Issuer may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate
principal amount of Notes issued under this Indenture, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior written notice to the Holders and the Trustee, at a redemption price equal to 106.000% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed,
plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, to the date of redemption (subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant interest payment date) with the net cash
proceeds of an Equity Offering by the Issuer; provided that: 
 (1) at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of
Notes originally issued under the Indenture (excluding Notes held by the Issuer and its Subsidiaries) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption; and 

(2) the redemption occurs prior to 180 days after the date of the closing of such Equity Offering. 

(b) At any time prior to September 15, 2021, the Issuer, at its option, may on one or more occasions redeem all or a part
of the Notes, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior written notice to the Holders and the Trustee, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus the Applicable Premium as of, and
accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, to date of redemption, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant payment date. 

(c) Except pursuant to the two preceding paragraphs, the Notes will not be redeemable at the Issuer’s option prior to
September 15, 2021. 
 (d) On or after September 15, 2021, the Issuer may on any one or more occasions redeem all
or a part of the Notes upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior written notice to the Holders and the Trustee, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest
and Additional Interest, if any on the Notes redeemed, to the applicable date of redemption, if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning on September 15 of the years indicated below (subject to the
rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date):

 Unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to
accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on the applicable redemption date. 
 (6) GAMING
REDEMPTION. Each holder, by accepting a Note, shall be deemed to have agreed that, if any Gaming Authority requires that a person who is a holder or the beneficial owner of Notes be registered, licensed, qualified or found suitable under
applicable Gaming Laws, such Holder or beneficial owner, as the case may be, shall apply for a license, qualification or a finding of suitability in accordance with such Gaming Laws. If such Person fails to apply or become registered, licensed or
qualified or is found unsuitable, the Issuer shall have the right, at its option: 
 (a) to require such Person to dispose of
its Notes or beneficial interest therein within 30 days of receipt of notice of the Issuer’s election or such earlier date as may be requested or prescribed by such Gaming Authority; or 

(b) to redeem such Notes, upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice to the Holders and the Trustee (or such
earlier date as may be requested or prescribed by such Gaming Authority), at a redemption price equal to: 
 (1) the lesser
of: 
 (A) the Person’s cost for such Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, to the
earlier of the date of redemption or the date of the finding of unsuitability or failure to comply; and 
 (B) 100% of the
principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, to the earlier of the date of redemption or the date of the finding of unsuitability or failure to comply; or 

(2) such other amount as may be required by applicable law or order of the Gaming Authority. 

(b) the Issuer shall notify the Trustee in writing of any such disqualified holder status or redemption as soon as practicable.
Neither the Issuer nor the Trustee shall be responsible for any costs or expenses any Holder or beneficial owner may incur in connection with its registration, application for a license, qualification or a finding of suitability, or any renewal or
continuation of the foregoing or compliance with any other requirement of a Gaming Authority. Those costs and expenses will be the obligations of the Holder or beneficial owner, as applicable. 

(7) MANDATORY REDEMPTION. The Issuer is not required to make
mandatory redemption (except as set forth in paragraph (8) hereof) or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes. 

  
 A-6 

 (8) SPECIAL MANDATORY
REDEMPTION. 
 (a) If (i) the Escrow Agent has not received the Officer’s Certificate pursuant to
Section 3(d) of the Escrow Agreement on or prior to Termination Date, (ii) Escrow Issuer notifies the Escrow Agent in writing that Eldorado and Tropicana will not pursue the consummation of the
ERI-Tropicana Merger or (iii) Escrow Issuer fails to timely deposit (or cause to be timely deposited) in cash such amounts required by Section 3(f) of the Escrow Agreement on or before three Business
Days after the applicable deposit date as set forth in Section 3(f) of the Escrow Agreement, then the Escrow Agent shall release the Escrow Property (including investment earnings thereon and proceeds thereof) to the Trustee, on the second
Business Day succeeding (x) the Termination Date (in the case of clause (i)), (y) the date of such notice (in the case of clause (ii)) and (z) the third Business Day after the applicable deposit date (in the case of clause (iii)) (such
second (2nd) Business Day, the “Special Mandatory Redemption Date”), and the Trustee shall pay the amounts to the Paying Agent for payment to the Holders (the “Special Mandatory
Redemption”) at a price (the “Special Mandatory Redemption Price”) equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest from the Issue Date to, but excluding, the Special Mandatory Redemption
Date. Notice of the Special Mandatory Redemption will be delivered by the Issuer promptly to each Holder at its registered address, the Trustee and the Escrow Agent. 

(b) Pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, on the Special Mandatory Redemption Date, the Escrow Agent will pay by wire transfer of immediately
available funds to the Trustee for payment to each Holder the Special Mandatory Redemption Price for such Holder’s Notes. In addition, on the Special Mandatory Redemption Date, the Trustee will pay to Escrow Issuer any Escrow Property
(including investment earnings thereon and proceeds thereof) in excess of the amount necessary to effect the Special Mandatory Redemption on such Notes on the Special Mandatory Redemption Date. After the Deadline, all interest earned on the Escrow
Property and any other Escrow Property that is not required to be applied towards a Special Mandatory Redemption shall be paid to the Issuer upon the Issuer’s written request in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement. For the
avoidance of doubt, it is acknowledged and agreed that in no event shall the Trustee or the Escrow Agent have any responsibility for determining or verifying the accuracy of the Special Mandatory Redemption Price. 

(9) REPURCHASE AT THE OPTION OF
HOLDER. 
 (A) Upon the occurrence of (i) a Change of Control (if, at
the Change of Control Time, the Notes do not have Investment Grade Status) or (ii) a Change of Control Triggering Event (if, at the Change of Control Time, the Notes have Investment Grade Status), the Issuer will be required to make an offer (a
“Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate
principal amount of Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased to the date of purchase, subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due
on the relevant interest payment date (the “Change of Control Payment”). Within 10 Business Days following any Change of Control, the Issuer will send a notice to each Holder and setting forth the procedures governing the Change of
Control Offer as required by the Indenture. 
 (B) If the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer consummates any
Asset Sales, within 20 Business Days after each date on which the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $75.0 million, the Issuer will make an Asset Sale Offer to all Holders of Notes and all holders of other Pari Passu Debt containing
provisions similar to those set forth in the Indenture with respect to offers to purchase, prepay or redeem with the proceeds of Asset Sales in accordance with the Indenture to purchase, prepay or redeem the maximum principal amount of Notes and
such other Pari Passu Debt (plus all accrued interest on the Indebtedness and the amount of all fees and expenses, including premiums, incurred in connection therewith) that may be purchased, prepaid or redeemed out of the Excess Proceeds. The offer
price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, to the date of purchase, prepayment or redemption, subject to the rights of holders of Notes on the

  
 A-7 

 
relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date, and will be payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the
Issuer may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other Pari Passu Debt tendered into (or required to be prepaid or redeemed in connection with) such Asset
Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Notes trustee will select the Notes and such other Pari Passu Debt to be purchased on a pro rata basis or by lot (and, in the case of Notes in global form, in accordance with the
Applicable Procedures), based on the amounts tendered or required to be prepaid or redeemed (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Issuer so that only Notes in minimum denominations of $2,000, or an integral multiple of $1,000 in
excess thereof, will be left outstanding). Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero. Holders of Notes that are the subject of an offer to purchase will receive an Asset Sale Offer from the Issuer
prior to any related purchase date and may elect to have such Notes purchased by completing the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to the Notes. 

(10) NOTICE OF REDEMPTION. At least 30 days but not more
than 60 days before a redemption date, the Issuer will mail or cause to be mailed, by first class mail (or send such notices electronically in accordance with the Applicable Procedures in the case of Notes in global form), a notice of redemption to
each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address (with a copy to the Trustee), except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of
the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Articles 8 or 11 thereof. Notes and portions of Notes selected will be in amounts of $2,000 or whole multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof; except that if all of the Notes of a
Holder are to be redeemed or purchased, the entire outstanding amount of Notes held by such Holder shall be redeemed or purchased 

(11) DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE. The Notes are in
registered form in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a
Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Issuer may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer
of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, the Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of
Notes to be redeemed or during the period between a record date and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date. 
 (12)
PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as the owner of it for all purposes. Only registered Holders have rights under the Indenture. 

(13) AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER.
Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes including Additional
Notes, if any, voting as a single class, and any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes including Additional Notes, if any, voting as a single class. Without the consent of any Holder of Notes, the Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be amended or supplemented to cure any

the other agreements in this Indenture; (v) default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Issuer or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries), whether such Indebtedness or Guarantee now exists, or is created after the date of this Indenture, if that default (a) is
caused by a failure to pay principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on, if any, such Indebtedness prior to the expiration of the grace period provided in such Indebtedness on the date of such default (a “Payment Default”) or
(b) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity, and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a
Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $50.0 million or more; (vi) failure by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to pay final judgments entered by a court or courts of competent

held in any judicial proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or ceases for any reason to be in full force and effect, or any Guarantor, or any Person acting on behalf of any Guarantor, denies or disaffirms its obligations under its Note Guarantee;
and (viii) any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding with respect to the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of its Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a
Significant Subsidiary. 
 In the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the
Issuer, any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable
immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at 

  
 A-9 

 
least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as
provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to
the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on it. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal,
premium, if any, or interest, if any,) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes by notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of all the Holders,
rescind an acceleration or waive an existing Default or Event of Default and its respective consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest, if any, on,
the Notes (including in connection with an offer to purchase). The Issuer is required to deliver to the Trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with the Indenture, and the Issuer is required, upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of
Default, to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default or Event of Default. 
 (15) TRUSTEE
DEALINGS WITH ISSUER. The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Issuer or its Affiliates, and may
otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee. 
 (16) NO
RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. No director, partner, member, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of the Issuer or any Guarantor, as such, will have any liability for any
obligations of the Issuer or the Guarantors under the Notes, the Indenture, the Note Guarantees, or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of Notes by accepting a Note waives and
releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. The waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws.
