 2.2.13. the currency of
denomination of the Securities of the Series, which may be Dollars or any Foreign Currency, including, but not limited to, the ECU, and if such currency of denomination is a composite currency other than the ECU, the agency or organization, if any,

 2.2.14. the designation of the currency, currencies or currency units
in which payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on the Securities of the Series will be made;

 2.2.16. the manner in which the amounts of payment of principal of or
interest, if any, on the Securities of the Series will be determined, if such amounts may be determined by reference to an index based on a currency or currencies or by reference to a commodity, commodity index, stock exchange index or financial
index; 

  
 7 

 2.2.17. the provisions, if any, relating to any security provided for the Securities of
the Series; 
 2.2.18. any addition to or change in the Events of Default which applies to any Securities of the Series and
any change in the right of the Trustee or the requisite Holders of such Securities to declare the principal amount thereof due and payable pursuant to Section 6.2; 
 2.2.19. any addition to or change in the covenants set forth in Articles IV or V which applies to Securities of the Series; 
 2.2.20. any other terms of the Securities of the Series (which may supplement, modify or delete any provision of this Indenture insofar as it applies to such Series);

2.2.23. whether the Securities of such Series will be senior debt securities or subordinated debt securities and, if applicable, a
description of the subordination terms thereof. 
 All Securities of any one Series need not be issued at the same time and may
be issued from time to time, consistent with the terms of this Indenture, if so provided by or pursuant to the Board Resolution, supplemental indenture hereto or Officer’s Certificate referred to above. 

Section 2.3. Execution and Authentication. 
 A duly authorized Officer shall sign the Securities for the Company by manual or facsimile signature. 
 If an Officer whose signature is on a Security no longer holds that office at the time the Security is authenticated, the Security shall nevertheless be valid. 

A Security shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent. The signature shall
be conclusive evidence that the Security has been authenticated under this Indenture. 
 The Trustee shall at any time, and from
time to time, authenticate Securities for original issue in the principal amount provided in the Board Resolution, supplemental indenture hereto or Officer’s Certificate, upon receipt by the Trustee of a Company Order. Such Company Order may
authorize authentication and delivery pursuant to oral or electronic instructions from 

  
 8 

 
the Company or its duly authorized agent or agents, which oral instructions shall be promptly confirmed in writing. Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. 

The aggregate principal amount of Securities of any Series outstanding at any time may not exceed any limit upon the maximum principal
amount for such Series set forth in the Board Resolution, supplemental indenture hereto or Officer’s Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 2.2, except as provided in Section 2.8. 

Prior to the issuance of Securities of any Series, the Trustee shall have received and (subject to Section 7.2) shall be fully
protected in relying on: (a) the Board Resolution, supplemental indenture hereto or Officer’s Certificate establishing the form of the Securities of that Series or of Securities within that Series and the terms of the Securities of that
Series or of Securities within that Series, (b) an Officer’s Certificate complying with Section 10.4, and (c) an Opinion of Counsel complying with Section 10.4. 

The Trustee shall have the right to decline to authenticate and deliver any Securities of such Series: (a) if the Trustee, being
advised by counsel, determines that such action may not be taken lawfully; or (b) if the Trustee in good faith by its board of directors or trustees, executive committee or a trust committee of directors and/or vice-presidents shall determine
that such action would expose the Trustee to personal liability to Holders of any then outstanding Series of Securities. 
 The
Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Company to authenticate Securities. An authenticating agent may authenticate Securities whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee
includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with the Company or an Affiliate of the Company. 
 Section 2.4. Registrar and Paying Agent. 
 The Company shall
maintain, with respect to each Series of Securities, at the place or places specified with respect to such Series pursuant to Section 2.2, an office or agency where Securities of such Series may be presented or surrendered for payment
(“Paying Agent”), where Securities of such Series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange (“Registrar”) and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of such
Series and this Indenture may be served (“Service Agent”). The Registrar shall keep a register with respect to each Series of Securities and to their transfer and exchange. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee
of the name and address, and any change in the name or address, of each Registrar, Paying Agent or Service Agent. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required Registrar, Paying Agent or Service Agent or shall fail to furnish
the Trustee with the name and address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such
presentations, surrenders, notices and demands. 
 The Company may also from time to time designate one or more co-registrars,
additional paying agents or additional service agents and may from time to time rescind such 

  
 9 

 
designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligations to maintain a Registrar, Paying Agent and Service
Agent in each place so specified pursuant to Section 2.2 for Securities of any Series for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the name or address
of any such co-registrar, additional paying agent or additional service agent. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar; the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent; and the term
“Service Agent” includes any additional service agent. 
 The Company hereby appoints the Trustee the initial
Registrar, Paying Agent and Service Agent for each Series unless another Registrar, Paying Agent or Service Agent, as the case may be, is appointed prior to the time Securities of that Series are first issued. 

Section 2.5. Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. 

The Company shall require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust, for the
benefit of Securityholders of any Series of Securities, or the Trustee, all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of or interest on the Series of Securities, and will notify the Trustee of any default by the Company 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 Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over
to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company) shall have no further liability for the money. If the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate
trust fund for the benefit of Securityholders of any Series of Securities all money held by it as Paying Agent. 

Section 2.6. Securityholder Lists. 
 The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Securityholders of each Series of Securities and shall
otherwise comply with TIA § 312(a). If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee at least ten 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 Securityholders of each Series of Securities. 
 Section 2.7. Transfer and Exchange. 
 Where Securities of a
Series are presented to the Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to register a transfer or to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Securities of the same Series, the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange if its
requirements for such transactions are met. To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Trustee shall authenticate Securities at the Registrar’s request. No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange
(except as otherwise expressly permitted herein), but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar 

  
 10 

 
governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable upon exchanges pursuant to Sections 2.11, 3.6 or 9.6). 

Neither the Company nor the Registrar shall be required (a) to issue, register the transfer of, or exchange Securities of any Series
for the period beginning at the opening of business fifteen days immediately preceding the mailing of a notice of redemption of Securities of that Series selected for redemption and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, or
(b) to register the transfer of or exchange Securities of any Series selected, called or being called for redemption as a whole or the portion being redeemed of any such Securities selected, called or being called for redemption in part.

 Section 2.8. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. 

If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in
exchange therefor a new Security of the same Series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 
 If there shall be delivered to the Company and the Trustee (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be
required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon its
request the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of the same Series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously
outstanding. 
 In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable,
the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security. 
 Upon the issuance of any new
Security under this Section, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee)
connected therewith. 
 Every new Security of any Series issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or
stolen Security shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this
Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities of that Series duly issued hereunder. 
 The provisions
of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities. 

  
 11 

 Section 2.9. Outstanding Securities. 

The Securities outstanding at any time are all the Securities authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those
delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest on a Global Security effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof and those described in this Section as not outstanding. 

If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.8, it ceases to be outstanding until the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it
that the replaced Security is held by a bona fide purchaser. 
 If the Paying Agent (other than the Company, a Subsidiary of the
Company or an Affiliate of the Company) holds on the Maturity of Securities of a Series money sufficient to pay such Securities payable on that date, then on and after that date such Securities of the Series cease to be outstanding and interest on
them ceases to accrue. 
 A Security does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds
the Security. 
 In determining whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of outstanding Securities have given any
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver hereunder, the principal amount of a Discount Security that shall be deemed to be outstanding for such purposes shall be the amount of the principal thereof that would be due and
payable as of the date of such determination upon a declaration of acceleration of the Maturity thereof pursuant to Section 6.2. 
 Section 2.10. Treasury Securities. 
 In determining whether the
Holders of the required principal amount of Securities of a Series have concurred in any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver, Securities of a Series owned by the Company or any Affiliate of the Company shall be
disregarded, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver only Securities of a Series that the Trustee knows are so
owned shall be so disregarded. 
 Section 2.11. Temporary Securities. 

Until definitive Securities are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Securities upon
a Company Order. Temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of definitive Securities but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Securities. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the
Trustee upon request shall authenticate definitive Securities of the same Series and date of maturity in exchange for temporary Securities. Until so exchanged, temporary securities shall have the same rights under this Indenture as the definitive
Securities. 

  
 12 

 Section 2.12. Cancellation. 

The Company at any time may deliver Securities to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the
Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee shall cancel all Securities surrendered for transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall destroy such canceled Securities
(subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act) and deliver a certificate of such destruction to the Company. The Company may not issue new Securities to replace Securities that it has paid or delivered to the Trustee for
cancellation. 
 Section 2.13. Defaulted Interest. 

If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on a Series of Securities, it shall pay the defaulted interest, plus, to the extent
permitted by law, any interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the persons who are Securityholders of the Series on a subsequent special record date. The Company shall fix the record date and payment date. At least 10 days before the record
date, the Company shall mail to the Trustee and to each Securityholder of the Series a notice that states the record date, the payment date and the amount of interest to be paid. The Company may pay defaulted interest in any other lawful manner.

 Section 2.14. Global Securities. 
 2.14.1. Terms of Securities. A Board Resolution, a supplemental indenture hereto or an Officer’s Certificate shall establish whether the Securities of a Series shall be issued in whole or
in part in the form of one or more Global Securities and the Depositary for such Global Security or Securities. 

2.14.2. Transfer and Exchange. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary contained in Section 2.7 of the Indenture
and in addition thereto, any Global Security shall be exchangeable pursuant to Section 2.7 of the Indenture for Securities registered in the names of Holders other than the Depositary for such Security or its nominee only if (i) such
Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Security or if at any time such Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, and, in either case, the Company
fails to appoint a successor Depositary registered as a clearing agency under the Exchange Act within 90 days of such event or (ii) the Company executes and delivers to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that such Global
Security shall be so exchangeable. Any Global Security that is exchangeable pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be exchangeable for Securities registered in such names as the Depositary shall direct in writing in an aggregate principal amount
equal to the principal amount of the Global Security with like tenor and terms. 
 Except as provided in this
Section 2.14.2, a Global Security may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary with respect to such Global Security to a nominee of such Depositary, by a nominee of such Depositary to such Depositary or another nominee of such
Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such a successor Depositary. 

  
 13 

 2.14.3. Legend. Any Global Security issued hereunder shall bear a legend in
substantially the following form: 
 “This Security is a Global Security within the meaning of the Indenture hereinafter
referred to and is registered in the name of the Depositary or a nominee of the Depositary. This Security is exchangeable for Securities registered in the name of a person other than the Depositary or its nominee only in the limited circumstances
described in the Indenture, and 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 another nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee
to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such a successor Depositary.” 
 2.14.4. Acts of Holders. The
Depositary, as a Holder, may appoint agents and otherwise authorize participants to give or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action which a Holder is entitled to give or take under the Indenture.

 2.14.5. Payments. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Indenture, unless otherwise specified as
contemplated by Section 2.2, payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on any Global Security shall be made to the Holder thereof. 
 2.14.6. Consents, Declaration and Directions. Except as provided in Section 2.14.5, the Company, the Trustee and any Agent shall treat a person as the Holder of such principal amount of
outstanding Securities of such Series represented by a Global Security as shall be specified in a written statement of the Depositary with respect to such Global Security, for purposes of obtaining any consents, declarations, waivers or directions
required to be given by the Holders pursuant to this Indenture. 
 Section 2.15. CUSIP Numbers. 

The Company in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use
“CUSIP” numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained
in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other elements of identification printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. 

  
 14 

 Section 2.16. Form of Trustee’s Certification of Authentication.

 The Trustee’s certificate of authentication on all Securities shall be in substantially the following form: 

This is one of the Securities of the Series designated herein and referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture.

 Section 3.1. Notice to Trustee. 
 The Company may, with respect
to any Series of Securities, reserve the right to redeem and pay the Series of Securities or may covenant to redeem and pay the Series of Securities or any part thereof prior to the Stated Maturity thereof at such time and on such terms as provided
for in such Securities. If a Series of Securities is redeemable and the Company wants or is obligated to redeem prior to the Stated Maturity thereof all or part of the Series of Securities pursuant to the terms of such Securities, it shall notify
the Trustee of the redemption date and the principal amount of Series of Securities to be redeemed. The Company shall give the notice to the Trustee at least 30 days before the redemption date (or such shorter notice as may be acceptable to the
Trustee). 
 Section 3.2. Selection of Securities to be Redeemed. 

Unless otherwise indicated for a particular Series by a Board Resolution, a supplemental indenture hereto or an Officer’s
Certificate, if less than all the Securities of a Series are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall select the Securities of the Series to be redeemed in any manner that the Trustee deems fair and appropriate. The Trustee shall make the selection from
Securities of the Series outstanding not previously called for redemption. The Trustee may select for redemption portions of the principal of Securities of the Series that have denominations larger than $1,000. Securities of the Series and portions
of them it selects shall be in amounts of $1,000 or whole multiples of $1,000 or, with respect to Securities of any Series issuable in other denominations pursuant to Section 2.2.10, the minimum principal denomination for each Series and
integral multiples thereof. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to Securities of a Series called for redemption also apply to portions of Securities of that Series called for redemption. 

Section 3.3. Notice of Redemption. 
 Unless otherwise indicated for a particular Series by Board Resolution, a supplemental indenture hereto or an Officer’s Certificate, at least 15 days but not more than 60

  
 15 

 
days before a redemption date, the Company shall mail a notice of redemption by first-class mail to each Holder whose Securities are to be redeemed. 

The notice shall identify the Securities of the Series to be redeemed and shall state:

 (b) the redemption price; 
 (c) the name and address of
the Paying Agent;

 (g) any other information as may be required by the terms of the particular Series or the Securities of a
Series being redeemed. 
 At the Company’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Company’s
name and at its expense. In such event, the Company shall provide the Trustee with the information required by this Section at least 30 days before the redemption date. 
 Section 3.4. Effect of Notice of Redemption. 
 Once notice of
redemption is mailed or published as provided in Section 3.3, Securities of a Series called for redemption become due and payable on the redemption date and at the redemption price. A notice of redemption may not be conditional. Upon surrender
to the Paying Agent, such Securities shall be paid at the redemption price plus accrued interest to the redemption date. 

Section 3.5. Deposit of Redemption Price. 
 On or before 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the redemption date, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest, if any, on all
Securities to be redeemed on that date. 
 Section 3.6. Securities Redeemed in Part. 

Upon surrender of a Security that is redeemed in part, the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder a new Security of the same Series

 The Company shall deliver to the
Trustee copies of the annual reports and other reports and documents (or copies of such portions of any of the foregoing as the SEC may by rules and regulations prescribe) which the Company files with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of
the Exchange Act within 15 days after the Company files such reports or documents with the SEC, regardless of when such reports or documents are required to be filed with the SEC. The Company also shall comply with the other provisions of TIA §
314(a). 
 Section 4.3. Compliance Certificate. 

The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company, an Officer’s Certificate

fulfilled its obligations under this Indenture, and further stating, as to each such Officer signing such certificate, that, to the best of his/her knowledge, the Company has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and every covenant contained

advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law
has been enacted.

 Section 4.5. Corporate Existence. 

Subject to Article V, the Company will do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its
corporate existence and rights (charter and statutory); provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to preserve any such right if the Board of Directors shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the
conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole and that the loss thereof is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders. 
 ARTICLE V. SUCCESSORS 
 Section 5.1. When Company May Merge, Etc.

 The Company shall not consolidate with or merge with or into, or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of its
properties and assets to, any person (a “successor person”) unless:

under this Indenture and the Securities. 

  
 18 

 ARTICLE VI. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES 

Section 6.1. Events of Default. 
 “Event of Default,” wherever used herein with respect to Securities of any Series, means any one of the following events, unless in the establishing Board Resolution, supplemental
indenture or Officer’s Certificate, it is provided that such Series shall not have the benefit of said Event of Default: 
 (a) default in the payment of any interest on any Security of that Series when it becomes due and payable, and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days (unless the entire amount of such
payment is deposited by the Company with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent prior to the expiration of such period of 30 days); or 
 (b) default in the payment of principal of or premium on any Security of that Series at its Maturity or when such principal otherwise becomes due and payable whether at Maturity, upon redemption,

 (c) default in the performance of any agreement or

been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of that Series a written notice specifying such default or
breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” hereunder; or

 The term “Bankruptcy Law” means title 11, U.S. Code or any similar
Federal or State law for the relief of debtors. The term “Custodian” means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator or similar official under any Bankruptcy Law. 

Section 6.2. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. 

If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any Series at the time outstanding occurs and is continuing (other than an Event of
Default referred to in Section 6.1(d) or (e)) then in every such case the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of that Series may declare the principal amount (or, if any Securities of
that Series are Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms of such Securities) of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all of the Securities of that Series to be due and payable immediately, by
a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal amount (or specified amount) and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, shall become immediately due and payable. If an Event of
Default specified in Section 6.1(d) or (e) shall occur, the principal amount (or specified amount) of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all outstanding Securities shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable
without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. 
 At any time after such a declaration of
acceleration with respect to any Series has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
outstanding Securities of that Series, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if all Events of Default with respect to Securities of that Series, other than the non-payment of
the principal and interest, if any, of Securities of that Series which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 6.13. 

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

Section 6.3. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee. 

The Company covenants that if 
 (a) default is made in the payment of any interest on any Security when such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days, or 

(b) default is made in the payment of principal of any Security at the Maturity thereof, or 

  
 20 

 (c) default is made in the deposit of any sinking fund payment when and
as due by the terms of a Security, 
 then, the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of
such Securities, the whole amount then due and payable on such Securities for principal and interest and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, interest on any overdue principal and any overdue interest at the
rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities, and, in addition thereto, 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. 
 If the Company fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its
own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Company or any other
obligor upon such Securities and collect the moneys adjudged or deemed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon such Securities, wherever situated. 

If an Event of Default with respect to any Securities of any Series occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed
to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of Securities of such Series by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific
enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy. 
 Section 6.4. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 
 In case of the
pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities or the property of the Company or
of such other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made
any demand on the Company for the payment of overdue principal or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, 
 (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Securities and to file such 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 of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and 

(b) to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute
the same, 

  
 21 

 
and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official 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 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 7.7. 
 Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to
authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Trustee
to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding. 
 Section 6.5. Trustee May Enforce Claims
Without Possession of Securities. 
 All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Securities may be
prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an
express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the
Securities in respect of which such judgment has been recovered. 
 Section 6.6. Application of Money
Collected. 
 Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be applied in the following order, at the
date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal or interest, upon presentation of the Securities and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if
fully paid: 
 First: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.7; and 

Second: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of and interest on the Securities in respect of which or for the
benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such Securities for principal and interest, respectively; and 

Third: To the Company or to such other person as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct. 

Section 6.7. Limitation on Suits. 
 No Holder of any Security of any Series shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any
other remedy hereunder, unless 
 (a) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a
continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of that Series; 

  
 22 

 (b) the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the
outstanding Securities of that Series shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder; 

(c) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonably satisfactory indemnity against the costs, expenses
and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; 
 (d) the Trustee for 60 days after its
receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding; and 

(e) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by
the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of that Series; 
 it being understood and intended that no one or
more of such Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of such Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or
preference over any other of such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all such Holders. 

Section 6.8. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal and Interest. 

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Security shall have the right, which is absolute and
unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on such Security on the Stated Maturity or Stated Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on the redemption date) and to institute suit for the
enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder. 

Section 6.9. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. 

If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has
been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders shall be
restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted. 

Section 6.10. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. 
 Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in Section 2.8, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the
Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter
existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or 

  
 23 

 
otherwise, shall not, to the extent permitted by law, prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 

Section 6.11. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. 
 No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Securities to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of
any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the
Holders, as the case may be. 
 Section 6.12. Control by Holders. 

The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any Series shall have the right to direct the time, method
and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, with respect to the Securities of such Series, provided that 

(a) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture, 

(b) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction,
and 
 (c) subject to the provisions of Section 6.1, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to
follow any such direction if the Trustee in good faith shall, by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, determine that the proceeding so directed would involve the Trustee in personal liability. 

Section 6.13. Waiver of Past Defaults. 
 The Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any Series may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such Series waive any past Default or any
existing Event of Default hereunder with respect to such Series and its consequences, except a continuing Default or an Event of Default in the payment of the principal of or interest on any Security of such Series (provided, however, that the
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any Series 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 Event of Default or impair any right
consequent thereon. 
 Section 6.14. Undertaking for Costs. 

All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security by his acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any
court may in its discretion require, in 

  
 24 

 
any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party
litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the
merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Company, to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or
group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any Series, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of or interest on any Security on
or after the Stated Maturity or Stated Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on the redemption date). 
 ARTICLE VII. TRUSTEE 
 Section 7.1. Duties of Trustee.

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

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

(i) The Trustee need perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no others.

 (ii) In the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the
statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon Officer’s Certificates or Opinions of Counsel furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; however, in the case of any such
Officer’s Certificates or Opinions of Counsel which by any provisions hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall examine such Officer’s Certificates and Opinions of Counsel to determine whether or
not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture. 
 (c) The Trustee may not be relieved from
liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except that: 
 (i) This paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section. 
 (ii) The Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it is proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts.

 (iii) The Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it
with respect to Securities of any Series in 

  
 25 

 
good faith in accordance with the direction of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of such Series relating to the time, method and place of conducting any
proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture with respect to the Securities of such Series. 

(d) Every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraph (a),

right or power unless it receives indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense. 

(f) The Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Trustee may agree in
writing with the Company. Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
 (g) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties, or in the exercise of any of its
rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk is not reasonably assured to it. 

(h) The Paying Agent, the Registrar and any authenticating agent shall be entitled to the protections, immunities and
standard of care as are set forth in paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of this Section with respect to the Trustee. 

Section 7.2. Rights of Trustee. 
 (a) The Trustee may rely on and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting 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 and/or an Opinion of Counsel. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such Officer’s Certificate and/or Opinion of
Counsel.

negligence of any agent appointed with due care. No Depositary shall be deemed an agent of the Trustee and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any act or omission by any Depositary. 

(d) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be
authorized or within its rights or powers, provided that the Trustee’s conduct does not constitute negligence or bad faith. 

  
 26 

 (e) The Trustee may consult with counsel and the advice of such counsel
or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder without negligence and in good faith and in reliance thereon. 

(f) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture
at the request or direction of any of the Holders of Securities unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonably satisfactory security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in
compliance with such request or direction. 
 (g) The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation
into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Trustee,
in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit. 

(h) 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 Securities generally or the
Securities of a particular Series and this Indenture. 
 Section 7.3. Individual Rights of Trustee. 

The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with the Company
or an Affiliate of the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Agent may do the same with like rights. The Trustee is also subject to Sections 7.10 and 7.11. 

Section 7.4. Trustee’s Disclaimer. 
 The Trustee makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Securities, it shall not be accountable for the Company’s use of the proceeds from the Securities, and it
shall not be responsible for any statement in the Securities other than its authentication. 
 Section 7.5. Notice
of Defaults. 
 If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to the Securities of any Series and
if it is known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail to each Securityholder of the Securities of that Series notice of a Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs or, if later, after a Responsible Officer
of the Trustee has knowledge of such Default or Event of Default. Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of or interest on any Security of any Series, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as its
corporate trust committee or a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Securityholders of that Series. 

  
 27 

 Section 7.6. Reports by Trustee to Holders. 

Within 60 days after November 15 in each year, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Securityholders, as their names and
addresses appear on the register kept by the Registrar, a brief report dated as of such November 15, in accordance with, and to the extent required under, TIA § 313. 

A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to Securityholders of any Series shall be filed with the SEC and each stock exchange on
which the Securities of that Series are listed. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee when Securities of any Series are listed on any stock exchange. 
 Section 7.7. Compensation and Indemnity. 
 The Company shall pay
to the Trustee from time to time compensation for its services as the Company and the Trustee shall from time to time agree upon in writing. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express
trust. The Company shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable out of pocket expenses incurred by it. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel. 

The Company shall indemnify each of the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee (including the cost of defending itself) against any loss,
liability or expense, including taxes (other than taxes based upon, measured by or determined by the income of the Trustee) incurred by it except as set forth in the next paragraph in the performance of its duties under this Indenture as Trustee or
Agent. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. The Company shall defend the claim and the Trustee shall cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have one separate counsel and the Company shall pay
the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. This indemnification shall apply to officers, directors, employees,
shareholders and agents of the Trustee. 
 The Company need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss or liability
incurred by the Trustee or by any officer, director, employee, shareholder or agent of the Trustee through negligence or bad faith. 
 To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this Section, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities of any Series on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that
held in trust to pay principal of and interest on particular Securities of that Series. 
 When the Trustee incurs expenses or
renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(d) or (e) occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law. 

The provisions of this Section shall survive the termination of this Indenture. 

  
 28 

 Section 7.8. Replacement of Trustee. 

A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee shall become effective only upon the successor
Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section. 
 The Trustee may resign with respect to the Securities
of one or more Series by so notifying the Company at least 30 days prior to the date of the proposed resignation. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of any Series may remove the Trustee with respect to that Series by so
notifying the Trustee and the Company. The Company may remove the Trustee with respect to Securities of one or more Series if: 
 (a) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10; 

(b) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for relief is entered with respect to the Trustee
under any Bankruptcy Law; 
 (c) a Custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property;
or 
 (d) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting. 

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

 If a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any one or more Series does not take office within 60 days after the
retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Company or the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Securities of the applicable Series may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a
successor Trustee. 
 A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to
the Company. Immediately after that, the retiring Trustee shall transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee subject to the lien provided for in Section 7.7, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall
become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee with respect to each Series of Securities for which it is acting as Trustee under this Indenture. A successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its
succession to each Securityholder of each such Series. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.8, the Company’s obligations under Section 7.7 hereof shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee
with respect to expenses and liabilities incurred by it prior to such replacement. 

  
 29 

 Section 7.9. Successor Trustee by Merger, etc.

set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. The Trustee shall comply with TIA § 310(b). 

Section 7.11. Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company. 

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.

(b) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Company; and

sinking fund payments or analogous payments as contemplated by Sections 8.3 or 8.4.

pay and shall indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against U.S. Government Obligations or Foreign Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Sections 8.3 or 8.4 or the interest and principal received in

independent certified public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are then in excess of the amount thereof which then would have been required to be deposited for the purpose for which such U.S.
Government Obligations or Foreign Government Obligations or money were deposited or received. This provision shall not authorize the sale by the Trustee of any 

  
 31 

 
U.S. Government Obligations or Foreign Government Obligations held under this Indenture.

 (h) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Company with the intent of preferring the Holders of the Securities of
such Series over any other creditors of the Company or with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any other creditors of the Company; and 
 (i) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for relating to the defeasance
contemplated by this Section have been complied with. 
 Section 8.4. Covenant Defeasance. 

Unless this Section 8.4 is otherwise specified pursuant to Section 2.2.20 to be inapplicable to Securities of any Series, the
Company may omit to comply with respect to the Securities of any Series with any term, provision or condition set forth under Sections 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, and 5.1 as well as any additional covenants specified in a supplemental indenture for such
Series of Securities or a Board Resolution or an Officer’s Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 2.2.20 (and the failure to comply with any such covenants shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default with respect to such Series
under Section 6.1) and the occurrence of any event specified in a supplemental indenture for such Series of Securities or a Board Resolution or an Officer’s Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 2.2.18 and designated as an Event
of Default shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default hereunder, with respect to the Securities of such Series, provided that the following conditions shall have been satisfied: 

(a) With reference to this Section 8.4, the Company has deposited or caused to be irrevocably deposited (except
as provided in Section 8.2(c)) with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the following payments specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated solely to, the benefit of the Holders of such Securities (i) in
the case of Securities of such Series denominated in Dollars, cash in Dollars and/or U.S. Government Obligations, or (ii) in the case of Securities of such Series denominated in a Foreign Currency (other than a composite currency), money and/or
Foreign Government Obligations, which through the payment of interest and principal in respect thereof in 

  
 33 

 
accordance with their terms, will provide (and without reinvestment and assuming no tax liability will be imposed on such Trustee), not later than one day before the due date of any payment of
money, an amount in cash, sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge each installment of
principal of and interest, if any, on and any mandatory sinking fund payments in respect of the Securities of such Series on the dates such installments of interest or principal and such sinking fund payments are due; 

(b) Such deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, this Indenture or any
other agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound; 
 (c) No Default or
Event of Default with respect to the Securities of such Series shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit; 
 (d) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that Holders of the Securities of such Series will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax
purposes as a result of such deposit and 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 deposit and covenant defeasance had not
occurred; 
 (e) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating the
deposit was not made by the Company with the intent of preferring the Holders of the Securities of such Series over any other creditors of the Company or with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any other creditors of the
Company; and 
 (f) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an
Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the covenant defeasance contemplated by this Section have been complied with. 
 Section 8.5. Repayment to Company. 
 Subject to any applicable
abandoned property law, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Company upon request any money held by them for the payment of principal and interest that remains unclaimed for two years. After that, Securityholders entitled to the money
must look to the Company for payment as general creditors unless an applicable abandoned property law designates another person. 
 Section 8.6. Reinstatement. 
 If the Trustee or the Paying Agent
is unable to apply any money deposited with respect to Securities of any Series in accordance with Section 8.1 by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining
or otherwise prohibiting such application, the obligations of the Company 

  
 34 

 
under this Indenture with respect to the Securities of such Series and under the Securities of such Series shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to
Section 8.1 until such time as the Trustee or the Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.1; provided, however, that if the Company has made any payment of principal of or interest on or
any Additional Amounts with respect to any Securities because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or
Paying Agent. 
 ARTICLE IX. AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS 
 Section 9.1. Without Consent of Holders. 
 The Company and the
Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture or the Securities of one or more Series without the consent of any Securityholder: 
 (a) to secure any Securities; 
 (b) to add covenants for
the protection of the Holders of Securities; 
 (c) to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency;

 (d) to comply with Article V; 

(e) to provide for uncertificated Securities in addition to or in place of certificated Securities; 

(f) to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Securityholder; 

(g) to provide for the issuance of and establish the form and terms and conditions of Securities of any Series as
permitted by this Indenture; 
 (h) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment hereunder by a
successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more Series and to add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one
Trustee; or 
 (i) to comply with requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification
of this Indenture under the TIA. 
 Section 9.2. With Consent of Holders. 

The Company and the Trustee may enter into a supplemental indenture with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in
principal amount of the outstanding Securities of each Series affected by such supplemental indenture (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for the Securities of such Series), for the purpose of adding any
provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or of any supplemental indenture or of modifying in any manner the 

  
 35 

 
rights of the Securityholders of each such Series. Except as provided in Section 6.13, the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any Series by
notice to the Trustee (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for the Securities of such Series) may waive compliance by the Company with any provision of this Indenture or the Securities with respect to such
Series. 
 It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders of Securities under this Section 9.2 to approve the
particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. After a supplemental indenture or waiver under this section becomes effective, the Company shall mail to the
Holders of Securities affected thereby, a notice briefly describing the supplemental indenture or waiver. Any failure by the Company to mail or publish such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity
of any such supplemental indenture or waiver. 
 Section 9.3. Limitations. 

Without the consent of each Securityholder affected, an amendment or waiver may not: 

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

 (b) reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest (including default interest) on any
Security; 
 (c) reduce the principal or change the Stated Maturity of any Security or reduce the amount of,
or postpone the date fixed for, the payment of any sinking fund or analogous obligation; 
 (d) reduce the
principal amount of Discount Securities payable upon acceleration of the Maturity thereof; 
 (e) waive a
Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of or interest, if any, on any Security (except a rescission of acceleration of the Securities of any Series by the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding
Securities of such Series and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration); 

(f) make the principal of or interest, if any, on any Security payable in any currency other than that stated in the
Security; 
 (g) make any change in Sections 6.8, 6.13 or 9.3 (this sentence); or 

(h) waive a redemption payment with respect to any Security, provided that such redemption is made at the
Company’s option. 

  
 36 

 Section 9.4. Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. 

Every amendment to this Indenture or the Securities of one or more Series shall be set forth in a supplemental indenture hereto that
complies with the TIA as then in effect. 
 Section 9.5. Revocation and Effect of Consents. 

Until an amendment is set forth in a supplemental indenture or a waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Security is a
continuing consent by the Holder and every subsequent Holder of a Security or portion of a Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Security, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Security. However, any such
Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to his Security or portion of a Security if the Trustee receives the notice of revocation before the date of the supplemental indenture or the date the waiver becomes effective. 

Any amendment or waiver once effective shall bind every Securityholder of each Series affected by such amendment or waiver unless it is
of the type described in any of clauses (a) through (h) of Section 9.3. In that case, the amendment or waiver shall bind each Holder of a Security who has consented to it and every subsequent Holder of a Security or portion of a
Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Security. 
 Section 9.6. Notation on or
Exchange of Securities. 
 The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment or waiver on any Security of any
Series thereafter authenticated. The Company in exchange for Securities of that Series may issue and the Trustee shall authenticate upon request new Securities of that Series that reflect the amendment or waiver. 

Section 9.7. Trustee Protected. 
 In executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article or the modifications thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be
entitled to receive, and (subject to Section 7.1) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. The Trustee shall sign all
supplemental indentures, except that the Trustee need not sign any supplemental indenture that adversely affects its rights. 

ARTICLE X. MISCELLANEOUS 
 Section 10.1. Trust Indenture Act Controls. 
 If any provision of
this Indenture limits, qualifies, or conflicts with another provision which is required or deemed to be included in this Indenture by the TIA, such required or deemed provision shall control. 

  
 37

or not the Securityholder receives it. 
 If the Company mails a notice or communication to Securityholders, it shall mail a

 (d) a statement as to whether or not, in the opinion of such person, such condition or covenant has been complied with. 
 Section 10.6. Rules by Trustee and Agents. 
 The Trustee may make
reasonable rules for action by or a meeting of Securityholders of one or more Series. Any Agent may make reasonable rules and set reasonable requirements for its functions. 
 Section 10.7. Legal Holidays. 
 Unless otherwise provided by
Board Resolution, Officer’s Certificate or supplemental indenture hereto for a particular Series, a “Legal Holiday” is any day that is not a Business Day. If a payment date is a Legal Holiday at a place of payment, payment may
be made at that place on the next succeeding day that is not a Legal Holiday, and no interest shall accrue for the intervening period. 
 Section 10.8. No Recourse Against Others. 
 A director, officer,
employee or stockholder, as such, of the Company shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Securities or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. Each
Securityholder by accepting a Security waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issue of the Securities. 

  
 39 

 Section 10.9. Counterparts. 

This Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so
executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. 

Section 10.10. Governing Laws. 
 THIS INDENTURE AND THE SECURITIES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED IN SUCH STATE, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CONFLICT OF LAWS
PROVISIONS THEREOF. 
 Section 10.11. No Adverse Interpretation of Other Agreements.

such indenture, loan or debt agreement may not be used to interpret this Indenture. 

Section 10.12. Successors. 
 All agreements of the Company in this Indenture and the Securities shall bind its successor. All agreements of the Trustee in this Indenture shall bind its successor. 

Section 10.13. Severability.

affected or impaired thereby. 
 Section 10.14. Table of Contents, Headings, Etc. 

The Table of Contents, Cross Reference Table, and headings of the Articles and Sections of this Indenture have been inserted for
convenience of reference only, are not to be considered a part hereof, and shall in no way modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof. 
 Section 10.15. Securities in a Foreign Currency or in ECU. 

Unless otherwise specified in a Board Resolution, a supplemental indenture hereto or an Officer’s Certificate delivered pursuant to
Section 2.2 of this Indenture with respect to a particular Series of Securities, whenever for purposes of this Indenture any action may be taken by the Holders of a specified percentage in aggregate principal amount of Securities of all Series
or all Series affected by a particular action at the time outstanding and, at such time, there are outstanding Securities of any Series which are denominated in a coin or currency other than Dollars (including ECUs), then the principal amount of
Securities of such Series which shall be deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of taking such action shall be that amount of Dollars that could be obtained for such amount at the Market Exchange Rate at such time. For purposes

  
 40 

 
of this Section 10.15, “Market Exchange Rate” shall mean the noon Dollar buying rate in New York City for cable transfers of that currency as published by the Federal
Reserve Bank of New York; provided, however, in the case of ECUs, Market Exchange Rate shall mean the rate of exchange determined by the Commission of the European Union (or any successor thereto) as published in the Official Journal
of the European Union (such publication or any successor publication, the “Journal”). If such Market Exchange Rate is not available for any reason with respect to such currency, the Trustee shall use, in its sole discretion and
without liability on its part, such quotation of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York or, in the case of ECUs, the rate of exchange as published in the Journal, as of the most recent available date, or quotations or, in the case of ECUs, rates of
exchange from one or more major banks in The City of New York or in the country of issue of the currency in question or, in the case of ECUs, in Luxembourg or such other quotations or, in the case of ECUs, rates of exchange as the Trustee, upon
consultation with the Company, shall deem appropriate. The provisions of this paragraph shall apply in determining the equivalent principal amount in respect of Securities of a Series denominated in currency other than Dollars in connection with any
action taken by Holders of Securities pursuant to the terms of this Indenture. 
 All decisions and determinations of the
Trustee regarding the Market Exchange Rate or any alternative determination provided for in the preceding paragraph shall be in its sole discretion and shall, in the absence of manifest error, to the extent permitted by law, be conclusive for all
purposes and irrevocably binding upon the Company and all Holders. 
 Section 10.16. Judgment Currency.

 The Company agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so under applicable law, that (a) if for the
purpose of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert the sum due in respect of the principal of or interest or other amount on the Securities of any Series (the “Required Currency”) into a currency in which a
judgment will be rendered (the “Judgment Currency”), the rate of exchange used shall be the rate at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Trustee could purchase in The City of New York the Required Currency with the
Judgment Currency on the day on which final unappealable judgment is entered, unless such day is not a New York Banking Day, then the rate of exchange used shall be the rate at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Trustee could
purchase in The City of New York the Required Currency with the Judgment Currency on the New York Banking Day preceding the day on which final unappealable judgment is entered and (b) its obligations under this Indenture to make payments in the
Required Currency (i) shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender, any recovery pursuant to any judgment (whether or not entered in accordance with subsection (a)), in any currency other than the Required Currency, except to the extent
that such tender or recovery shall result in the actual receipt, by the payee, of the full amount of the Required Currency expressed to be payable in respect of such payments, (ii) shall be enforceable as an alternative or additional cause of
action for the purpose of recovering in the Required Currency the amount, if any, by which such actual receipt shall fall short of the full amount of the Required Currency so expressed to be payable, and (iii) shall not be affected by judgment
being obtained for any other sum due under this Indenture. For purposes of the foregoing, “New York Banking Day” means any day except a Saturday, Sunday or a legal holiday in The City of New York on which banking institutions are
authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close. 

  
 41 

 ARTICLE XI. SINKING FUNDS 

Section 11.1. Applicability of Article. 
 The provisions of this Article shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of the Securities of a Series, except as otherwise permitted or required by any form of Security of such Series
issued pursuant to this Indenture. 
 The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of the Securities
of any Series is herein referred to as a “mandatory sinking fund payment” and any other amount provided for by the terms of Securities of such Series is herein referred to as an “optional sinking fund payment.” If
provided for by the terms of Securities of any Series, the cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as provided in Section 11.2. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of Securities of any Series
as provided for by the terms of the Securities of such Series. 
 Section 11.2. Satisfaction of Sinking Fund
Payments with Securities. 
 The Company may, in satisfaction of all or any part of any sinking fund payment with respect to
the Securities of any Series to be made pursuant to the terms of such Securities (1) deliver outstanding Securities of such Series to which such sinking fund payment is applicable (other than any of such Securities previously called for
mandatory sinking fund redemption) and (2) apply as credit Securities of such Series to which such sinking fund payment is applicable and which have been repurchased by the Company or redeemed either at the election of the Company pursuant to
the terms of such Series of Securities (except pursuant to any mandatory sinking fund) or through the application of permitted optional sinking fund payments or other optional redemptions pursuant to the terms of such Securities, provided that such
Securities have not been previously so credited. Such Securities shall be received by the Trustee, together with an Officer’s Certificate with respect thereto, not later than 15 days prior to the date on which the Trustee begins the process of
selecting Securities for redemption, and shall be credited for such purpose by the Trustee at the price specified in such Securities for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such sinking fund payment shall be reduced
accordingly. If as a result of the delivery or credit of Securities in lieu of cash payments pursuant to this Section 11.2, the principal amount of Securities of such Series to be redeemed in order to exhaust the aforesaid cash payment shall be
less than $100,000, the Trustee need not call Securities of such Series for redemption, except upon receipt of a Company Order that such action be taken, and such cash payment shall be held by the Trustee or a Paying Agent and applied to the next
succeeding sinking fund payment, provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent shall from time to time upon receipt of a Company Order pay over and deliver to the Company any cash payment so being held by the Trustee or such
Paying Agent upon delivery by the Company to the Trustee of Securities of that Series purchased by the Company having an unpaid principal amount equal to the cash payment required to be released to the Company. 

  
 42 

 Section 11.3. Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund. 

Not less than 45 days (unless otherwise indicated in the Board Resolution, supplemental indenture hereto or Officer’s Certificate in
respect of a particular Series of Securities) prior to each sinking fund payment date for any Series of Securities, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing mandatory sinking
fund payment for that Series pursuant to the terms of that Series, the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by payment of cash and the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting of Securities of that
Series pursuant to Section 11.2, and the optional amount, if any, to be added in cash to the next ensuing mandatory sinking fund payment, and the Company shall thereupon be obligated to pay the amount therein specified. Not less than 30 days
(unless otherwise indicated in the Board Resolution, Officer’s Certificate or supplemental indenture in respect of a particular Series of Securities) before each such sinking fund payment date the Trustee shall select the Securities to be
redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date in the manner specified in Section 3.2 and cause notice of the redemption thereof to be given in the name of and at the expense of the Company in the manner provided in Section 3.3. Such notice
having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 3.4, 3.5 and 3.6.

November 30, 2011, between American Greetings Corporation, an Ohio corporation (the “Issuer”), and The Bank of Nova Scotia Trust Company of New York, a trust company organized and existing under the laws of the State of New
York, as trustee (the “Trustee”). 
 WHEREAS, the Issuer has heretofore executed and delivered an Indenture,
dated as of November 30, 2011 (the “Base Indenture”), between the Issuer and the Trustee, providing for the issuance from time to time of one or more series of the Issuer’s securities;

date. The Notes are a series of Securities as referred to in Section 2.1 of the Base Indenture; 
 WHEREAS, this
Supplemental Indenture restates in their entirety the terms of the Base Indenture as supplemented by this Supplemental Indenture and does not incorporate the terms of the Base Indenture, and the Notes shall be governed by the terms of this
Supplemental Indenture rather than the Base Indenture. The changes, modifications and supplements to the Base Indenture affected by this Supplemental Indenture shall be applicable only with respect to, and shall only govern the terms of, the Notes,
except as otherwise provided herein, and shall not apply to any other securities that may be issued under the Base Indenture unless a supplemental indenture with respect to such other securities specifically incorporates such changes, modifications
and supplements; 
 WHEREAS, the Issuer has delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel and an Officer’s Certificate
pursuant to Section 10.4 of the Base Indenture to the effect that the execution and delivery of the Supplemental Indenture is authorized or permitted under the Base Indenture and that all conditions precedent provided for in the Base Indenture
to the execution and delivery of this Supplemental Indenture to be complied with by the Issuer have been complied with; 

WHEREAS, the Issuer has requested that the Trustee execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture; 

WHEREAS, all necessary acts and things have been done to make (i) the Notes, when duly issued and executed by the Issuer and
authenticated and delivered hereunder, the valid and binding obligations of the Issuer and (ii) this Supplemental Indenture a valid and binding agreement of the Issuer in accordance with the terms of this Supplemental Indenture; 

WHEREAS, the Issuer has received good and valuable consideration for the execution and delivery of this Supplemental Indenture, and the
Issuer will derive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the issuance of the Notes. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, THIS SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE
WITNESSETH: 

 Each party agrees as follows for the benefit of the other parties and for the equal and
ratable benefit of the Holders (as defined below) of the Notes:

 2

(B) the principal amount of such Note on such Redemption Date. 

Calculation of the Applicable Premium shall be made by the Issuer or on behalf of the Issuer by such Person as the Issuer shall
designate; provided, however, that such calculation shall not be a duty or obligation of the Trustee. 

“asset” means any asset or property. 
 “Asset Acquisition” means: 
 (1) an Investment by

a Trust Officer, a copy of which shall be furnished to the Issuer. An Authenticating Agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Supplemental Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication
by such Authenticating Agent. An Authenticating Agent has the same right as an Agent to deal with the Issuer and Affiliates of the Issuer. 
 The Notes shall be issuable only in registered form without coupons and only in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. 

Section 2.03. Registrar and Paying Agent. The Issuer shall maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for
registration of transfer or for exchange (“Registrar”), an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (“Paying Agent”) and an office or agency where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer in
respect of the Notes and this Supplemental Indenture may be served. The Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange. The Registrar shall provide the Issuer a current copy of such register from time to time upon
request of the Issuer. The Issuer may have one or more co-Registrars and one or more additional Paying Agents. Neither the Issuer nor any Affiliate of the Issuer may act as Paying Agent. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent, Registrar or
co-Registrar without notice to any Holder. 
 The Issuer shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Agent not a
party to this Supplemental Indenture. The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Supplemental Indenture that relate to such Agent. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of any such Agent. If the Issuer fails to
maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, or agent for service of notices and demands, or fails to give the foregoing notice, the Trustee shall act as such. The Issuer initially appoints the Trustee as Registrar, Paying Agent and agent for service of
notices and demands in connection with the Notes.

 Section 2.04. Paying Agent To Hold Assets in Trust. The Issuer shall require
each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that each Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of the Holders or the Trustee all assets held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest
on the Notes (whether such assets have been distributed to it by the Issuer or any other obligor on the Notes), and shall notify the Trustee in writing of any Default in making any such payment. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent to
distribute all assets held by it to the Trustee and account for any assets disbursed and the Trustee may at any time during the continuance of any Payment Default, upon written request to a Paying Agent, require such Paying Agent to forthwith
distribute to the Trustee all assets so held in trust by such Paying Agent together with a complete accounting of such sums. Upon distribution to the Trustee of all assets that shall have been delivered by the Issuer to the Paying Agent, the Paying
Agent shall have no further liability for such assets. 
 Section 2.05. Noteholder Lists. The Trustee shall preserve
in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Holders. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuer shall furnish or cause the Registrar to furnish to the Trustee on or before
each April 1 and October 1 in each year, 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 Holders which list may be
conclusively relied on by the Trustee. 
 Section 2.06. Transfer and Exchange. Subject to the provisions of
Sections 2.15 and 2.16 hereof, when Notes are presented to the Registrar or a co-Registrar with a request to register the transfer of such Notes or to exchange such Notes for an equal principal amount of Notes of other authorized denominations
of the same series, the Registrar or co-Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested if its requirements for such transaction are met; provided, however, that the Notes presented or surrendered for
registration of transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Registrar or co-Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized
in writing. To permit registrations of transfer and exchanges, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Notes at the Registrar’s or co-Registrar’s request. No service charge shall be made 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 in connection therewith payable by the transferor of such Notes (other than any such transfer taxes or similar governmental
charge payable upon exchanges or transfers pursuant to Section 2.10, 3.06, 4.12, 4.15 or 9.06 hereof, in which event the Issuer shall be responsible for the payment of such taxes). 

Without the prior consent of the Issuer, the Registrar or co-Registrar shall not be required to register the transfer of or exchange of
any Note (i) during a period beginning at the opening of 15 days before the delivery of a notice of redemption of Notes and ending at the close of business on the day of such delivery, (ii) selected for redemption in whole or in part
pursuant to Article 3 hereof, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part, or (iii) between a Record Date and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date. 

Any Holder of a Global Note shall, by acceptance of such Global Note, agree that transfers of beneficial interests in such Global Notes
may be effected only through a book entry 

  
 33 

 
system maintained by the Holder of such Global Note (or its agent), and that ownership of a beneficial interest in the Note shall be required to be reflected in a book entry. 

Section 2.07. Replacement Notes. If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or if the Holder presents evidence to the
satisfaction of the Issuer and the Trustee that the Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Note. An indemnity or a security bond may be required by the Issuer or the
Trustee that is sufficient in the judgment of the Issuer and the Trustee to protect the Issuer, the Trustee or any Agent from any loss which any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. In every case of destruction, loss or theft, the applicant
shall also furnish to the Issuer and to the Trustee evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or the theft of such Note and the ownership thereof. Each of the Issuer and the Trustee may charge for its expenses in replacing a Note. In
the event any such mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Note has become due and payable, the Issuer in its discretion may pay such Note instead of issuing a new Note in replacement thereof. The provisions of this Section 2.07 are
exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to replacement or payment of mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Notes. 

Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Issuer. 

Section 2.08. Outstanding Notes. Notes outstanding at any time are all Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those
cancelled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, and those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding. 
 If
a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof (other than a mutilated Note surrendered for replacement), it ceases to be outstanding until the Issuer and the Trustee receive proof satisfactory to each of them that the replaced Note is held
by a protected purchaser. A mutilated Note ceases to be outstanding upon surrender of such Note and replacement thereof pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof. 
 If on a Redemption Date or the Maturity Date, the Paying Agent holds U.S. legal tender sufficient to pay all of the principal and interest due on the Notes payable on that date and is not prohibited from
paying such money to the Holders thereof pursuant to the terms of this Supplemental Indenture, then on and after that date such Notes cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue. 

Section 2.09. Treasury Notes. In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in
any direction, waiver, consent or notice, Notes owned by the Issuer or any of its Affiliates shall be considered as though they are not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any
such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes which a Trust Officer of the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so considered. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee, in writing, when it or any of its Affiliates repurchases or otherwise
acquires Notes, of the aggregate principal amount of such Notes so repurchased or otherwise acquired. 
 Section 2.10.
Temporary Notes. Until definitive Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Notes upon receipt of a written order 

  
 34 

 
of the Issuer in the form of an Officer’s Certificate. The Officer’s Certificate shall specify the amount of temporary Notes to be authenticated and the date on which the temporary
Notes are to be authenticated. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of definitive Notes but may have variations that the Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Notes. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer shall prepare and the
Trustee shall authenticate upon receipt of a written order of the Issuer pursuant to Section 2.02 hereof definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes. 
 Section 2.11. Cancellation. The Issuer at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to
them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee, or at the direction of the Trustee, the Registrar or the Paying Agent, and no one else, shall cancel and, at the written direction of the Issuer, dispose of and deliver evidence of
such disposal of all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation in accordance with their then existing procedures therefor. Subject to Section 2.07 hereof, the Issuer may not issue new Notes to replace
Notes that it has paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. If the Issuer shall acquire any of the Notes, such acquisition shall not operate as a redemption or satisfaction of the Indebtedness represented by such Notes unless and until the
same are surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation pursuant to this Section 2.11. In no event shall the Trustee be required to destroy cancelled Notes. 
 Section 2.12. Defaulted Interest. The Issuer shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium and interest on
overdue interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law), to the extent lawful on demand at a rate that is 1% per annum in excess of the rate then in effect on the Notes. 

If the Issuer defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it shall pay the defaulted interest, plus (to the extent lawful) any
interest payable on the defaulted interest to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date, which date shall be the fifteenth day next preceding the date fixed by the Issuer for the payment of defaulted interest or the next
succeeding Business Day if such date is not a Business Day. At least 15 days before the subsequent special record date, the Issuer shall deliver to each Holder, as of a recent date selected by the Issuer, with a copy to the Trustee, a notice
that states the subsequent special record date, the payment date and the amount of defaulted interest, and interest payable on such defaulted interest, if any, to be paid. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, any interest which is paid prior to the expiration of the 30-day period set forth in Section 6.01(a) hereof shall be paid to Holders as of the Record Date for the
Interest Payment Date for which interest has not been paid. 
 Section 2.13. Deposit of Moneys. Prior to 11:00 a.m.,
New York City time, on each Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Change of Control Payment Date, Net Proceeds Payment Date and Maturity Date, the Issuer shall have deposited with the Paying Agent in immediately available funds U.S. legal tender
sufficient to make payments, if any, due on such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Change of Control Payment Date, Net Proceeds Payment Date or Maturity Date, as the case may be, in a timely manner which permits the Trustee to remit payment to
the Holders on such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, 

  
 35 

 
Change of Control Payment Date, Net Proceeds Payment Date or Maturity Date, as the case may be. The principal and interest on Global Notes shall be payable to the Depository or its nominee, as
the case may be, as the sole registered owner and the sole Holder of the Global Notes represented thereby. The principal and interest on Notes in certificated form shall be payable at the office of the Paying Agent. 

Section 2.14. CUSIP Number. The Issuer in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP,” “ISIN” or such other
numbers, and if so, the Trustee shall use such CUSIP, ISIN or such other numbers in notices of redemption or exchange as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness or
accuracy of the CUSIP, ISIN or such other numbers printed in the notice or on the Notes, and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes. The Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the
CUSIP, ISIN or such other number. 
 Section 2.15. Book-Entry Provisions for Global Notes. 

(a) The Global Notes initially shall (i) be registered in the name of the Depository or the nominee of such Depository, (ii) be
delivered to the Trustee as custodian for such Depository and (iii) bear legends as set forth in Section 2.17 hereof. 

Members of, or participants in, the Depository (“Agent Members”) shall have no rights under this Supplemental Indenture
with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by the Depository or under the Global Notes, and the Depository may be treated by the Issuer, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee as the absolute owner of the Global Notes for
all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Issuer, the Trustee or any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the
Depository or impair, as between the Depository and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a Holder. 
 (b) Interests of beneficial owners in the Global Notes may be transferred or exchanged for Certificated Notes in accordance with the rules and procedures of the Depository and the provisions of
Section 2.16 hereof. In addition, if (i) the Depository (x) notifies the Issuer that it is no longer willing or able to act as Depository for any Global Note or (y) has ceased to be a clearing company registered under the
Exchange Act and, in each case, a qualified successor depositary is not appointed by the Issuer within 90 days of such notice or (ii) the Issuer, at its option, notifies the Trustee in writing that it elects to cause the issuance of
Certified Notes, then, upon surrender by the relevant Holder of its Global Note, Certified Notes will be issued to each such Holder identified as being the beneficial owner. 
 (c) In connection with the transfer of Global Notes as an entirety to beneficial owners pursuant to paragraph (b), the Global Notes shall be deemed to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation,
and the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an authentication order from the Issuer in the form of an Officer’s Certificate, authenticate and deliver, to each beneficial owner identified by the Depository in writing in
exchange for its beneficial interest in the Global Notes, an equal aggregate principal amount of Certificated Notes of authorized denominations. 

  
 36 

 (d) The Holder of any Global Note may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person,
including Agent Members and Persons that may hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action which a Holder is entitled to take under this Supplemental Indenture or the Notes. 

Section 2.16. Registration of Transfers and Exchanges. 

(a) Transfer and Exchange of Certificated Notes. When Certificated Notes are presented to the Registrar or co-Registrar with a
request: 
 (i) to register the transfer of the Certificated Notes; or 

(ii) to exchange such Certificated Notes for an equal principal amount of Certificated Notes of other authorized denominations,

 the Registrar or co-Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested if the requirements under this Supplemental
Indenture as set forth in this Section 2.16 for such transactions are met; provided, however, that the Certificated Notes presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed or accompanied by a
written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Registrar or co-Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. 
 (b) Restrictions on Transfer of a Certificated Note for a Beneficial Interest in a Global Note. A Certificated Note may not be exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Global Note except upon
satisfaction of the requirements set forth below. Upon receipt by the Registrar or co-Registrar of a Certificated Note, duly endorsed or accompanied by appropriate instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Registrar or co-Registrar,
together with written instructions from the Holder thereof directing the Registrar or co-Registrar to make, or to direct the Depository to make, an endorsement on the applicable Global Note to reflect an increase in the aggregate amount of the Notes
represented by the Global Note, then the Registrar or co-Registrar shall cancel such Certificated Note and cause, or direct the Depository to cause, in accordance with the standing instructions and procedures existing between the Depository and the
Registrar or co-Registrar, the principal amount of Notes represented by the Global Note to be increased accordingly. 
 (c)
Transfer of a Beneficial Interest in a Global Note for a Certificated Note. 
 (i) Any Person having a beneficial
interest in a Global Note may upon request exchange such beneficial interest for a Certificated Note. Upon receipt by the Registrar or co-Registrar of written instructions, or such other form of instructions as is customary for the Depository, from
the Depository or its nominee on behalf of any Person having a beneficial interest in a Global Note and upon receipt by the Trustee of a written order or such other form of instructions as is customary for the Depository or the Person designated by
the Depository as having such a beneficial interest containing registration instructions, then the Registrar or co-Registrar will cause, in accordance with the standing instructions and procedures existing between the Depository and the Registrar or
co-Registrar, the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Global Note to be reduced and, following such reduction, the Issuer will execute and, upon receipt of an authentication order in the form of an Officer’s Certificate in accordance
with 

  
 37 

 
Section 2.02 hereof, the Trustee will authenticate and deliver to the transferee a Certificated Note in the appropriate principal amount. 

(ii) Certificated Notes issued in exchange for a beneficial interest in a Global Note pursuant to this Section 2.16(c) shall be
registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depository, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Registrar or co-Registrar in writing. The Registrar or co-Registrar
shall deliver such Certificated Notes to the Persons in whose names such Certificated Notes are so registered. 
 (d)
Restrictions on Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Supplemental Indenture, a Global Note may not be transferred as a whole except by the Depository to a nominee of the Depository or by a
nominee of the Depository to the Depository or another nominee of the Depository or by the Depository or any such nominee to a successor Depository or a nominee of such successor Depository. 

(e) General. None of the Issuer, the Trustee, any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee (including any Paying Agent or Registrar)
will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a global security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such
beneficial ownership interests. 
 The Registrar shall retain copies of all letters, notices and other written communications
received pursuant to Section 2.15 hereof or this Section 2.16. The Issuer shall have the right to inspect and make copies of all such letters, notices or other written communications at any reasonable time upon the giving of reasonable
written notice to the Registrar. 
 Section 2.17. Legends. Each Global Note shall bear the following legend:

 THIS NOTE IS A GLOBAL NOTE WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE HEREINAFTER REFERRED TO AND IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF A
DEPOSITORY OR A NOMINEE OF A DEPOSITORY OR A SUCCESSOR DEPOSITORY. THIS NOTE IS NOT EXCHANGEABLE IN WHOLE OR IN PART FOR NOTES REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF A PERSON OTHER THAN THE DEPOSITORY OR ITS NOMINEE EXCEPT IN THE LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES DESCRIBED
IN THE SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE, AND NO TRANSFER OF THIS NOTE (OTHER THAN A TRANSFER OF THIS NOTE AS A WHOLE BY THE DEPOSITORY TO A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITORY OR BY A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITORY TO THE DEPOSITORY OR ANOTHER NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITORY) MAY
BE REGISTERED EXCEPT IN THE LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES DESCRIBED IN THE SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE. 
 TRANSFERS OF THIS GLOBAL NOTE SHALL BE LIMITED TO
TRANSFERS IN WHOLE, BUT NOT IN PART, AND TRANSFERS OF INTERESTS IN THIS GLOBAL NOTE SHALL BE LIMITED TO TRANSFERS MADE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH IN SECTION 2.16 OF THE SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE. 

  
 38 

 ARTICLE III 
 REDEMPTION 
 Section 3.01. Notices to Trustee. If the Issuer elects to
redeem Notes pursuant to paragraph 5 of the Notes, at least 60 days prior to the Redemption Date or such other period as the Trustee may agree to, the Issuer shall notify the Trustee in writing of the Redemption Date, the principal amount
of Notes to be redeemed and the Redemption Price, and deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that such redemption will comply with the conditions contained herein and in the Notes, as appropriate. 

Section 3.02. Selection of Notes To Be Redeemed. In the event that less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time,
selection of the Notes to be redeemed shall be made by the Trustee in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which such Notes are listed or, if such Notes are not then listed on a national security
exchange, on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate; provided, however, that no Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less shall be redeemed in part; provided,
further, that if a partial redemption is made with the proceeds of any Qualified Equity Offering, selection of the Notes or portions thereof for redemption shall be made by the Trustee only on a pro rata basis or on as nearly a pro
rata basis as is practicable (subject to the procedures of the Depository), unless such method is otherwise prohibited. A new Note in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued in the name of the Holder thereof
upon delivery of the original Note to the Paying Agent and cancellation of the original Note. On and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption as long as the Issuer has deposited with
the Paying Agent funds in U.S. legal tender in satisfaction of the applicable Redemption Price pursuant to this Supplemental Indenture. 
 Section 3.03. Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption shall be delivered at least 30 but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder to be redeemed, except that
redemption notices may be delivered more than 60 days prior to a Redemption Date if the notice is issued in connection with a satisfaction and discharge of this Supplemental Indenture. If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of
redemption that relates to such Note shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. 
 The notice shall
identify the Notes to be redeemed (including the CUSIP, ISIN or other number(s) thereof) and shall state: 
 (a) the Redemption
Date; 
 (b) the Redemption Price and the amount of accrued interest, if any, to be paid; 

(c) that, if any Note is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount (equal to $2,000 in principal amount or any integral
multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such Note to be redeemed and that, on and after the Redemption Date, upon surrender of such 

  
 39 

 
Note, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued; 
 (d) the name, address and telephone number of the Paying Agent; 
 (e) that Notes
called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent at the address specified to collect the Redemption Price plus accrued interest, if any; 
 (f) that, unless the Issuer defaults in making the redemption payment, interest on Notes called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the Redemption Date and the only remaining right of the Holders
is to receive payment of the Redemption Price plus accrued interest to the Redemption Date upon surrender of the Notes to the Paying Agent; 
 (g) the subparagraph of the Notes pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed; and 
 (h) if fewer than all the Notes are to be redeemed, the identification of the particular Notes (or portion thereof) to be redeemed, as well as the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be redeemed and
the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be outstanding after such partial redemption. 
 Section 3.04. Effect of
Notice of Redemption. Once the notice of redemption described in Section 3.03 hereof is delivered, Notes called for redemption become due and payable on the Redemption Date and at the Redemption Price, including any premium, plus accrued
interest to the Redemption Date, if any. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such Notes shall be paid at the Redemption Price, including any premium, plus accrued interest to the Redemption Date, if any; provided that if the Redemption Date
is after a Record Date and on or prior to the Interest Payment Date, the accrued interest shall be payable to the Holder of the redeemed Notes registered on the relevant Record Date. 

Section 3.05. Deposit of Redemption Price. 
 (a) On or prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on each Redemption Date, the Issuer shall have deposited with the Paying Agent in immediately available funds U.S. legal tender sufficient to pay the
Redemption Price of and accrued interest on all Notes to be redeemed on that date. 
 (b) On and after any Redemption Date, if
U.S. legal tender sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of and accrued interest on Notes called for redemption shall have been made available in accordance with clause (a), the Notes called for redemption will cease to accrue interest and the
only right of the Holders of such Notes will be to receive payment of the Redemption Price of and, subject to the first proviso in Section 3.04 hereof, accrued and unpaid interest on such Notes to the Redemption Date. If any Note called for
redemption shall not be so paid, interest will continue to accrue and be paid, from the Redemption Date until such redemption payment is made, on the unpaid principal of the Note and any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case, at
the rate and in the manner provided for in Section 2.12 hereof. 

  
 40 

 Section 3.06. Notes Redeemed in Part. Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed
in part, the Trustee shall authenticate for a Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Note surrendered. 
 ARTICLE IV 
 COVENANTS 

Section 4.01. Payment of Notes. The Issuer shall pay the principal of and interest on the Notes on the dates and in the
manner provided in the Notes and this Supplemental Indenture. An installment of principal or interest shall be considered paid on the date it is due if the Trustee or Paying Agent holds, for the benefit of the Holders, on that date U.S. legal tender
designated for and sufficient to pay such installment in full and is not prohibited from paying such money to the Holders pursuant to the terms of this Supplemental Indenture. 
 The Issuer shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium and interest on overdue interest (including post-petition
interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law), to the extent lawful as provided for in Section 2.12 hereof on demand at a rate that is 1% per annum in excess of the rate then in effect on the Notes. 

Section 4.02. Reports to Holders. Whether or not required by the Commission, so long as any Notes are outstanding, the Issuer
shall file electronically with the Commission through the Commission’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval System (or any successor system, “EDGAR”), within the time periods that would be applicable to the Issuer
under Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (including any extension as would be permitted by Rule 12b-25 of the Exchange Act): 
 (a) all quarterly and annual financial information that would be required to be contained in a filing with the Commission on Forms 10-Q and 10-K if the Issuer were required to file these Forms, including
a “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and, with respect to the annual information only, a report on the annual financial statements by the Issuer’s certified independent
accountants; and 
 (b) all current reports that would be required to be filed (but not furnished) with the Commission on
Form 8-K if the Issuer were required to file these reports; 
 provided, however, that the Issuer shall not be so obligated to file
such reports with the Commission if the Commission does not permit such filings so long as the Issuer posts such reports on its website without any passcode or other restrictions within the time periods that would be applicable if the Issuer were
required to file such reports. 
 The Issuer and the Guarantors have agreed that, for so long as any Notes remain outstanding,
the Issuer will furnish to the Holders and to prospective investors, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act.

 The Issuer shall file with the Trustee promptly after it files such annual and quarterly
reports, information, documents and other reports with the Commission, copies of its annual report and of the information, documents and other reports (or copies of such portions of any of the foregoing as the Commission may by rules and regulations
prescribe) which the Issuer is required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, the Issuer will be deemed to have furnished such reports,
information and documents referred to in the previous sentence to the Trustee if the Issuer has filed such reports, information and documents with the Commission via EDGAR and such reports, information and documents are publicly available. The
Issuer also shall comply with the other provisions of TIA Section 314(a). 
 Delivery of such reports, information and
documents to the Trustee 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 therein, including the
Issuer’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officer’s Certificates). 
 Section 4.03. Waiver of Stay, Extension or Usury Laws. The Issuer covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead (as a defense or
otherwise) or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law or any usury law or other law which would prohibit or forgive the Issuer from paying all or any portion of the principal of, premium, if any,
and/or interest on the Notes as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Supplemental Indenture; and (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) the
Issuer hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenant that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as
though no such law had been enacted. 
 Section 4.04. Compliance Certificate; Notice of Default; Tax Information.

 (a) The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of its fiscal year an Officer’s

made under the supervision of the signing Officer with a view to determining whether the Issuer has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled their obligations under this Supplemental Indenture, and further stating, as to such Officer signing such
certificate, that to the best of his or her knowledge the Issuer has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and every covenant contained in this Supplemental Indenture and is not in default in the performance or observance of any of the terms,
provisions and conditions hereof (or, if a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred, describing all or such Defaults or Events of Default of which he or she may have knowledge and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with
respect thereto) and that to the best of his or her knowledge no event has occurred and remains in existence by reason of which payments on account of the principal of or interest, if any, on the Notes are prohibited or if such event has occurred, a
description of the event and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to 

  
 42 

 
take with respect thereto. The Officer’s Certificate shall also notify the Trustee should the Issuer elect to change the manner in which it fixes its fiscal year end. 

(b) (i) If any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or (ii) if any Holder seeks to exercise any remedy
hereunder with respect to a claimed default under this Supplemental Indenture or the Notes, the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee, at its address set forth in Section 11.02 hereof, by registered or certified mail or facsimile transmission
followed by hard copy by overnight courier, registered or certified mail, an Officer’s Certificate specifying such Default or Event of Default, notice or other action, the status thereof and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take
within five Business Days of such Officer’s becoming aware of such occurrence. 
 (c) The Issuer, or one of its
representatives, agents or employees, shall calculate and deliver to the Trustee all original issue discount information to be reported by the Trustee to Holders as required by applicable law.

the same shall become delinquent, (i) all material taxes, assessments and governmental charges (including withholding taxes and any penalties, interest and additions to taxes) levied or imposed upon it or any of its Subsidiaries or properties
of it or any of its Subsidiaries and (ii) all lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies that, if unpaid, might by law become a Lien upon the property of it or any of its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that the Issuer shall
not be required to pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged any such tax, assessment, charge or claim whose amount, applicability or validity is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings properly instituted and diligently
conducted for which adequate reserves, to the extent required under GAAP, have been taken. 
 Section 4.06. 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 (i) its corporate existence, and the corporate, partnership or limited liability company
or other existence of each Subsidiary, in accordance with the respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to time) of each Subsidiary (other than changes in structure from a corporation, partnership, limited liability
company or other current structure into a corporation, partnership or limited liability company) and (ii) the material rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries except where the failure to
preserve and keep in full force and effect any such rights, licenses and franchise shall not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, business, operations or prospects of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole; and
provided that the Issuer shall not be required to preserve any such right, license or franchise, or the corporate, limited liability company, partnership or other existence of any of its Subsidiaries, if the Issuer 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 rights of the Holders under this Supplemental
Indenture or the Notes. 
 Section 4.07. Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Issuer shall maintain an office or
agency where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange or for presentation for payment and where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer in respect of the

any time the Issuer shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the address of the Corporate
Trust Office of the Trustee located at One Liberty Plaza, 23 Floor, New York, NY 10006. 
 The Issuer may also from time to time
designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations. The Issuer shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of such
designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency. 
 The Issuer hereby initially
designates the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee located at One Liberty Plaza, 23 Floor, New York, NY 10006. 

Section 4.08. Compliance with Laws. The Issuer shall comply, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to comply, with all
applicable statutes, rules, regulations, orders and restrictions of the United States of America, all states and municipalities thereof, and of any governmental department, commission, board, regulatory authority, bureau, agency and instrumentality
of the foregoing, in respect of the conduct of their respective businesses and the ownership of their respective properties, except for such noncompliances as would not in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or
results of operations of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole. 
 Section 4.09. Maintenance of Properties
and Insurance. 
 (a) Subject to Article 5 hereof, the Issuer shall cause all material properties owned by or leased by it
or any of its Subsidiaries used or useful to the conduct of the Issuer’s business or the business of any of its Subsidiaries to be maintained and kept in normal condition, repair and working order (ordinary wear and tear and casualty loss
excepted) and supplied with all necessary equipment and shall cause to be made all necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements thereto, provided, however, that the Issuer and its Subsidiaries shall not be
obligated to make such repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements if the failure to make such repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements would not result in a material adverse effect on the ability of the Issuer
to satisfy its obligations under the Notes and this Supplemental Indenture. 
 (b) The Issuer shall maintain, and shall cause
its respective Subsidiaries to maintain, insurance with responsible carriers against such risks and in such amounts, and with such deductibles, retentions, self-insured amounts and co-insurance provisions, as are customarily carried by similar
businesses of similar size, including property and casualty loss, workers’ compensation and interruption of business insurance. 
 Section 4.10. Limitations on Additional Indebtedness. 
 (a) The Issuer
shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, incur any Indebtedness; provided that the Issuer or any Restricted 

  
 44 

 
Subsidiary may incur additional Indebtedness if, after giving effect thereto, the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio would be at least 2.00 to 1.00 (the “Coverage Ratio
Exception”). 
 (b) Notwithstanding the above, each of the following shall be permitted (the “Permitted
Indebtedness”): 
 (i) Indebtedness of the Issuer and any Restricted Subsidiary under the Credit Facilities in an
aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding not to exceed $650.0 million (excluding the amount of any Hedging Obligations); 
 (ii) the Notes issued on the Issue Date and the Note Guarantees; 
 (iii)
Indebtedness of the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries to the extent outstanding on the Issue Date after giving effect to the intended use of proceeds of the Notes (other than Indebtedness referred to in clause (i), (ii) or (v));

 (iv) Indebtedness under Hedging Obligations entered into for bona fide hedging purposes of the Issuer or any
Restricted Subsidiary not for the purpose of speculation and guarantees thereof by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary; provided that in the case of Hedging Obligations relating to interest rates, (a) such Hedging Obligations relate
to payment obligations on Indebtedness otherwise permitted to be incurred by this Section 4.10, and (b) the notional principal amount of such Hedging Obligations at the time incurred does not exceed the principal amount of the Indebtedness
to which such Hedging Obligations relate; 
 (v) Indebtedness of the Issuer owed to a Restricted Subsidiary and Indebtedness of
any Restricted Subsidiary owed to the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that upon any such Restricted Subsidiary ceasing to be a Restricted Subsidiary or such Indebtedness being owed to any Person other than
the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, shall be deemed to have incurred Indebtedness not permitted by this clause (v); 

(vi) Indebtedness in respect of workers’ compensation claims, payment obligations in connection with health or other types of social
security benefits, unemployment or other insurance or self-insurance obligations, reclamations, statutory obligations, bankers’ acceptances and bid, performance, surety or similar bonds issued for the account of the Issuer or any Restricted
Subsidiary in the ordinary course of business, including guarantees or obligations of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary with respect to letters of credit supporting such bid, performance, surety or similar obligations (in each case other than
for an obligation for money borrowed) in the ordinary course of business; 
 (vii) Purchase Money Indebtedness and Capitalized
Lease Obligations incurred by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary, and guarantees thereof by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary and Refinancing Indebtedness thereof, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the
greater of (x) $25.0 million and (y) 2.0% of Consolidated Total Assets; 
 (viii) Indebtedness arising from the
honoring by a bank or other financial institution of a check, draft or similar instrument inadvertently (except in the case of daylight 

  
 45 

 
overdrafts) drawn against insufficient funds in the ordinary course of business; provided, however, that in all cases such Indebtedness is extinguished within five Business Days of
incurrence; 
 (ix) Indebtedness arising in connection with endorsement of instruments for deposit in the ordinary course of
business; 
 (x) Refinancing Indebtedness with respect to Indebtedness incurred pursuant to the Coverage Ratio Exception or
clause (ii) or (iii) above or this clause (x); 
 (xi) indemnification, adjustment of purchase price, earn-out or
similar obligations, in each case, incurred or assumed in connection with the acquisition or disposition of any business or assets of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary or Equity Interests of a Restricted Subsidiary, other than guarantees of
Indebtedness incurred by any Person acquiring all or any portion of such business, assets or Equity Interests for the purpose of financing or in contemplation of any such acquisition; 

(xii) the incurrence by a Receivables Subsidiary of Indebtedness in a Qualified Receivables Transaction that is without recourse to the
Issuer or to any other Subsidiary of the Issuer or their assets (other than such Receivables Subsidiary and its assets and, as to the Issuer or any Subsidiary of the Issuer, other than pursuant to representations, warranties, covenants and
indemnities customary for such transactions) and is not guaranteed by any such Person; 
 (xiii) Indebtedness of the Issuer or
any Restricted Subsidiary in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $75.0 million at any time outstanding; and 

(xiv) the guarantee by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary that was
permitted to be incurred by another provision of this Section 4.10; provided, that if the Indebtedness being guaranteed is subordinated to or pari passu with the Notes, then such guarantees shall be subordinated or pari
passu, as applicable, to the same extent as the Indebtedness guaranteed. 
 For purposes of determining compliance with this
Section 4.10, in the event that an item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Indebtedness described in clauses (i) through (xiv) above or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to the
Coverage Ratio Exception, the Issuer shall, in its sole discretion, classify such item of Indebtedness and may divide and classify such Indebtedness in more than one of the types of Indebtedness described, except that Indebtedness incurred under the
Credit Facilities on the Issue Date shall be deemed to have been incurred under clause (i) above, and may later reclassify any item of Indebtedness described in clauses (i) through (xiv) above (provided that at the time of
reclassification it meets the criteria in such category or categories). The accrual of interest, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest on 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 Equity Interests in the form of additional shares of the same class of
Preferred Stock or Disqualified Equity Interests will not be deemed to be an incurrence of 

  
 46 

 
Indebtedness or an issuance of Preferred Stock or Disqualified Equity Interests for purposes of this Section 4.10. In addition, for purposes of determining any particular amount of
Indebtedness under this Section 4.10, guarantees, Liens or letter of credit obligations supporting Indebtedness otherwise included in the determination of such particular amount shall not be included so long as incurred by a Person that could
have incurred such Indebtedness. 
 Section 4.11. Limitations on Restricted Payments. 

(a) The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, make any Restricted Payment if at
the time of such Restricted Payment: 
 (i) a Default shall have occurred and be continuing or shall occur as a consequence
thereof; 
 (ii) the Issuer cannot incur $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Coverage Ratio Exception; or

 (iii) the amount of such Restricted Payment, when added to the aggregate amount of all other Restricted Payments made after
the Issue Date (other than Restricted Payments made pursuant to clauses (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), (vii), (viii), (ix), (x), (xi) and (xii) of Section 4.11(b) hereof), exceeds the sum (the “Restricted Payments
Basket”) of (without duplication): 
 (A) 50% of Consolidated Net Income for the period (taken as one accounting
period) commencing on the first day of the fiscal quarter in which the Issue Date occurs to and including the last day of the fiscal quarter ended immediately prior to the date of such calculation for which consolidated financial statements are
available (or, if such Consolidated Net Income shall be a deficit, minus 100% of such aggregate deficit), plus 
 (B)
100% of the aggregate net cash proceeds and the Fair Market Value of non-cash assets received by the Issuer either (x) as contributions to the common equity of the Issuer after the Issue Date or (y) from the issuance and sale of Equity
Interests (other than Disqualified Equity Interests) or from the issue or sale of convertible or exchangeable Disqualified Equity Interests or debt securities to the extent converted into or exchanged for Equity Interests, in each case issued after
the Issue Date, other than (1) any such proceeds which are used to redeem Notes in accordance with paragraph 5(c) of the Notes or (2) any such proceeds or assets received from a Subsidiary of the Issuer, plus 

(C) the aggregate amount by which Indebtedness incurred by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary subsequent to the Issue Date is
reduced on the Issuer’s balance sheet upon the conversion or exchange (other than by a Subsidiary of the Issuer) into Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Equity Interests) (less the amount of any cash, or the fair value of assets,
distributed by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary upon such conversion or exchange), plus 
 (D) in the case of the
disposition or repayment of or return on any Investment that was treated as a Restricted Payment made after the Issue Date, an amount (to the extent not included in the computation of Consolidated Net Income) equal to the aggregate

  
 47 

 
amount received by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary in cash or other property (valued at the Fair Market Value thereof) as the return of capital with respect to such Investment, plus

 (E) upon a Redesignation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary or the merger or consolidation of an
Unrestricted Subsidiary with or into the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary, the lesser of (i) the Fair Market Value of the Issuer’s proportionate interest in such Subsidiary immediately following such Redesignation, consolidation or
merger, and (ii) the aggregate amount of the Issuer’s Investments in such Subsidiary to the extent such Investments reduced the Restricted Payments Basket and were not previously repaid or otherwise reduced, plus 

(F) 50% of any cash dividends received by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary after the Issue Date from an Unrestricted Subsidiary, to
the extent that such dividends were not otherwise included in Consolidated Net Income. 
 (b) The foregoing provisions shall not
prohibit: 
 (i) the payment by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of any dividend within 60 days after the date of
declaration thereof, if on the date of declaration the payment would have complied with the provisions of this Supplemental Indenture; 
 (ii) the making of any Restricted Payment in exchange for, or out of the proceeds of the substantially concurrent issuance and sale of, Qualified Equity Interests; 

(iii) other than pursuant to clause (viii) below, the redemption of Equity Interests of the Issuer held by officers, directors or

aggregate cash consideration paid for all such redemptions shall not exceed (A) $5.0 million during any calendar year (with unused amounts being available to be used in the following calendar year, but not in any succeeding calendar year)
plus (B) the amount of any net cash proceeds received by or contributed to the Issuer from the issuance and sale after the Issue Date of Qualified Equity Interests of the Issuer to its officers, directors or employees that have not been
applied to the payment of Restricted Payments pursuant to this clause (iii), plus (C) the net cash proceeds of any “key-man” life insurance policies that have not been applied to the payment of Restricted Payments pursuant
to this clause (iii); 
 (iv) repurchases of Equity Interests that occur or are deemed to occur (A) upon the exercise
of stock options, warrants or similar rights to the extent such Equity Interests represents a portion of the exercise price thereof, (B) as a result of Equity Interest being utilized to satisfy tax withholding obligations upon exercise of stock
options or vesting of other equity awards and (C) upon the cancellation or forfeiture of stock options, warrants or other equity awards; 
 (v) Restricted Payments pursuant to the Transactions; 
 (vi) Restricted Payments
if after giving effect thereto the Issuer’s Net Leverage Ratio is not greater than 3.0 to 1.0; 

  
 48 

 (vii) other Restricted Payments in an amount not to exceed $75.0 million; 

(viii) the purchase or retirement of Class B Common Stock of the Issuer from any Permitted Holder in an aggregate amount not to

 (ix) so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or
would arise as a result thereof, the payment by the Issuer of any dividend to the holders of any class or series of its Equity Interests on a pro rata basis among the holders of such class or series of Equity Interests in an aggregate amount not to
exceed $25.0 million in any twelve-month period;

Interests of the Issuer or otherwise); or 
 (xii) the repurchase or redemption of common stock or Preferred Stock purchase
rights issued in connection with any shareholder rights plans; 
 provided that no proceeds from the issuance and sale of Qualified
Equity Interests used to make a payment pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii)(B) above shall increase the Restricted Payments Basket. 
 For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.11, in the event that a payment or other action meets the criteria of more than one of the exceptions described in clauses (i) through
(xii) above, or is entitled to be made pursuant to Section 4.11(a) hereof (including any payment or other action that constitutes a “Permitted Investment”), the Issuer will be permitted to classify such payment or other action on
the date of its occurrence in any manner that complies with this Section 4.11 (including any payment or other action that constitutes a “Permitted Investment”). Payments or other actions permitted by this Section 4.11 need not be
permitted solely by reference to one provision permitting such payment or other action (including any payment or other action that constitutes a “Permitted Investment”), but may be permitted in part by one such provision and in part by one
or more other provisions of this Section 4.11 permitting payment or other action (including any payment or other action that constitutes a “Permitted Investment”). 

Section 4.12. Limitations on Asset Sales. 
 (a) The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, consummate any Asset Sale unless at least 75% of the total consideration in such Asset Sale consists of
cash or Cash Equivalents. 
 For purposes of the preceding clause (a), the following shall be deemed to be cash:

  
 49 

 (i) the amount (without duplication) of any Indebtedness of the Issuer or such Restricted
Subsidiary (A) that is assumed by the transferee in such Asset Sale and with respect to which the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is unconditionally released by the holder of such Indebtedness or (B) in respect of
which neither the Issuer nor any Restricted Subsidiary has any obligation following such Asset Sale, 
 (ii) the amount of any
obligations or Publicly Traded Securities received from such transferee that are within 180 days converted by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary to cash (to the extent of the cash actually so received), 

(iii) the Fair Market Value of (A) any assets (other than securities) received by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary to be used
by it in a Permitted Business, (B) Equity Interests in a Person that is a Restricted Subsidiary or in a Person engaged in a Permitted Business that shall become a Restricted Subsidiary immediately upon the acquisition of such Person by the
Issuer or (C) a combination of (A) and (B), and 
 (iv) 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 since the Issue Date pursuant to this clause (iv) that is at that time outstanding,
not to exceed the greater of (x) $20.0 million and (y) 1.0% of Consolidated Total Assets as of the end of the most recently ended fiscal quarter for which internal financial statements are available, in each case 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. 

(b) If at any time any non-cash consideration received by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, in connection with
any Asset Sale is repaid or converted into or sold or otherwise disposed of for cash (other than interest received with respect to any such non-cash consideration), then the date of such repayment, conversion or disposition shall be deemed to
constitute the date of an Asset Sale hereunder and the Net Available Proceeds thereof shall be applied in accordance with this Section 4.12. 
 (c) If the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary engages in an Asset Sale, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary shall, no later than 365 days following the consummation thereof, apply all or any of
the Net Available Proceeds therefrom to: 
 (i) satisfy all mandatory repayment obligations under any Credit Facility arising by
reason of such Asset Sale; 
 (ii) repay any Indebtedness which was secured by the assets sold in such Asset Sale; 

(iii) in the case of any Asset Sale by a Foreign Subsidiary, repay any liability of one or more Foreign Subsidiaries; 

(iv) (A) invest all or any part of the Net Available Proceeds thereof in the purchase of assets (other than securities) to be used by the
Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary 

  
 50 

 
in the Permitted Business, (B) acquire Qualified Equity Interests in a Person that is a Restricted Subsidiary or in a Person engaged in a Permitted Business that shall become a Restricted
Subsidiary immediately upon the consummation of such acquisition or (C) a combination of (A) and (B); and/or 
 (v)
make a Net Proceeds Offer (and redeem Pari Passu Indebtedness) in accordance with the procedures described below and in this Supplemental Indenture. 
 The amount of Net Available Proceeds not applied or invested as provided in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of this Section 4.12(c) will constitute “Excess Proceeds.”

 (d) When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds equals or exceeds $20.0 million, the Issuer shall be required to make an
offer to purchase from all Holders and, if applicable, redeem (or make an offer to do so) any Pari Passu Indebtedness of the Issuer the provisions of which require the Issuer to redeem such Indebtedness with the proceeds from any Asset Sales (or
offer to do so), in an aggregate principal amount of Notes and such Pari Passu Indebtedness equal to the amount of such Excess Proceeds as follows: 
 (i) the Issuer shall (a) make an offer to purchase (a “Net Proceeds Offer”) to all Holders in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Supplemental Indenture, and
(b) redeem (or make an offer to do so) any such other Pari Passu Indebtedness, pro rata in proportion to the respective principal amounts of the Notes and such other Indebtedness required to be redeemed, the maximum principal amount of Notes
and Pari Passu Indebtedness that may be redeemed out of the amount (the “Payment Amount”) of such Excess Proceeds; 
 (ii) the offer price for the Notes will be payable in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes tendered pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer, plus accrued and unpaid interest
thereon, if any, to the date such Net Proceeds Offer is consummated (the “Offered Price”), in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Supplemental Indenture and the redemption price for such Pari Passu Indebtedness (the
“Pari Passu Indebtedness Price”) shall be as set forth in the related documentation governing such Indebtedness; 
 (iii) if the aggregate Offered Price of Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by Holders thereof exceeds the pro rata portion of the Payment Amount allocable to the Notes, Notes to be purchased
will be selected on a pro rata basis; and 
 (iv) upon completion of such Net Proceeds Offer in accordance with the
foregoing provisions, the amount of Excess Proceeds with respect to which such Net Proceeds Offer was made shall be deemed to be zero. 
 (e) To the extent that the sum of the aggregate Offered Price of Notes tendered pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer and the aggregate Pari Passu Indebtedness Price paid to the holders of such Pari Passu
Indebtedness is less than the Payment Amount relating thereto (such shortfall constituting a “Net Proceeds Deficiency”), the Issuer may use the Net Proceeds Deficiency, or a portion thereof, for any purposes not prohibited by this
Supplemental Indenture. 

  
 51 

 (f) Upon the commencement of a Net Proceeds Offer, the Issuer shall deliver a notice to the
Trustee and to each Holder. The notice shall contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holder to tender Notes pursuant to the Net Proceeds Offer. Any Net Proceeds Offer shall be made to all Holders. The notice, which shall
govern the terms of the Net Proceeds Offer, shall state: 
 (i) that the Net Proceeds Offer is being made pursuant to this
Section 4.12; 
 (ii) the Payment Amount, the Offered Price, and the date on which Notes tendered and accepted for payment
shall be purchased, which date shall be at least 30 days and not later than 60 days from the date such notice is delivered (the “Net Proceeds Payment Date”); 

(iii) that any Notes not tendered or accepted for payment shall continue to accrue interest; 

(iv) that, unless the Issuer defaults in making such payment, any Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Net Proceeds Offer shall
cease to accrue interest on and after the Net Proceeds Payment Date; 
 (v) that Holders electing to have any Notes purchased
pursuant to any Net Proceeds Offer shall be required to surrender the Notes, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of the Note 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 second Business Day preceding the Net Proceeds Payment Date; 
 (vi) that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the Paying Agent receives, not later than the Net Proceeds Payment Date, a notice 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; 
 (vii) that if the aggregate principal amount of Notes surrendered by Holders exceeds the Payment Amount allocable to the Notes, the Issuer shall select the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis (with
such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Issuer so that only Notes in denominations of $2,000, or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, shall be purchased); 

(viii) that Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part shall be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased
portion of the Notes surrendered (or transferred by book-entry); 
 (ix) any other procedures that a Holder must follow to
accept a Net Proceeds Offer or effect withdrawal of such acceptance; and 
 (x) the name, address and telephone number of the
Paying Agent. 

  
 52 

 (g) On the Net Proceeds Payment Date, the Issuer shall, to the extent lawful:
(1) accept for payment all Notes or portions thereof properly tendered pursuant to the Net Proceeds Offer, subject to proration if the aggregate Notes tendered exceed the Payment Amount allocable to the Notes; (2) deposit with the Paying
Agent an amount of U.S. legal tender equal to the lesser of the Payment Amount allocable to the Notes and the amount sufficient to pay the Offered Price in respect of all Notes or portions thereof so accepted; and (3) deliver or cause to be
delivered to the Trustee the Notes so accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions thereof being repurchased by the Issuer. 

(h) The Issuer shall publicly announce the results of the Net Proceeds Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Net Proceeds Payment
Date. 
 (i) The Paying Agent shall promptly as practicable deliver to each Holder of Notes properly tendered the Offered Price
for such Notes, and the Trustee shall promptly as practicable authenticate and deliver (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any;
provided that each such new Note shall be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. However, if the Net Proceeds Payment Date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related
Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest shall 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 shall be payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to
the Net Proceeds Offer. 
 (j) The Issuer will comply with applicable tender offer rules, including the requirements of
Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other applicable laws and regulations in connection with the purchase of Notes pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the
provisions of this Section 4.12, the Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the provisions of this Section 4.12 by virtue of this compliance.

 Section 4.13. Limitations on Transactions with Affiliates. 

(a) The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, in one transaction or a series of
related transactions, sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its assets to, or purchase any assets from, or enter into any contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate (an
“Affiliate Transaction”), unless: 
 (i) such 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 at such time on an arm’s-length basis by the Issuer or that Restricted Subsidiary from a Person that is not an Affiliate of
the Issuer or that Restricted Subsidiary; and 
 (ii) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee: 

(A) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction involving aggregate value in excess of $10.0 million, an Officer’s Certificate
certifying that such Affiliate 

  
 53 

 
Transaction complies with clause (i) above and a Secretary’s Certificate which sets forth and authenticates a resolution that has been adopted by the Independent Directors approving
such Affiliate Transaction; and 
 (B) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction involving aggregate value of $40.0 million
or more, the certificates described in the preceding clause (A) and a written opinion as to the fairness of such Affiliate Transaction to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view issued by an Independent Financial
Advisor to the Board of Directors of the Issuer. 
 (b) The foregoing restrictions shall not apply to: 

(i) transactions exclusively between or among (a) the Issuer and one or more Restricted Subsidiaries or (b) Restricted
Subsidiaries; provided, in each case, that no Affiliate of the Issuer (other than another Restricted Subsidiary) owns Equity Interests of any such Restricted Subsidiary unless otherwise required by applicable law; 

(ii) director, officer and employee compensation (including bonuses) and other benefits (including insurance policies, retirement,
health, equity compensation and other benefit plans) and indemnification arrangements; 
 (iii) the entering into of a tax
sharing agreement, or payments pursuant thereto, between the Issuer and/or one or more Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and any other Person with which the Issuer or such Subsidiaries are required or permitted to file a consolidated tax return or with
which the Issuer or such Subsidiaries are part of a consolidated group for tax purposes to be used by such Person to pay taxes, and which payments by the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries are not in excess of the tax liabilities that would have

After the Issue Date, no Subsidiary shall be Designated as an “Unrestricted Subsidiary” unless such Subsidiary has no

If, after the Issue Date, (x) any Restricted Subsidiary (including any newly formed, newly acquired or newly Redesignated Restricted
Subsidiary, but excluding any Immaterial Subsidiary, Foreign Subsidiary or Receivables Subsidiary) either (i) guarantees any Indebtedness of the Issuer (other than Indebtedness under the Credit Facilities (provided that such Restricted

the Credit Agreement) or Indebtedness incurred pursuant to clauses (iv), (v), (vi), (vii), (viii), (ix), (xi) or (xiii) of the definition of Permitted Indebtedness) of any other Restricted Subsidiary or (ii) incurs any
Indebtedness other than Permitted Indebtedness or (y) the Issuer otherwise elects to have any Restricted Subsidiary become a Guarantor, then, in each such case, the Issuer shall cause such Restricted Subsidiary to:

Notes then outstanding; 
 (f) default under any mortgage, indenture or other instrument or agreement under which there may be
issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced Indebtedness by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary, whether such Indebtedness now exists or is incurred after the Issue Date, which default (A) is caused by a failure to pay at final
maturity principal on such Indebtedness within the applicable express grace period and any extensions thereof, (B) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express final maturity or (C) results in the commencement of
judicial proceedings to foreclose upon, or to exercise remedies under applicable law or applicable security documents to take ownership of, the assets securing such Indebtedness, and, in each case, the principal amount of such Indebtedness, together
with the principal amount of any other Indebtedness with respect to which an event described in clause (A), (B) or (C) has occurred and is continuing, aggregates $20.0 million or more; 

(g) one or more judgments or orders that exceed $20.0 million in the aggregate (net of amounts covered by insurance or bonded) for

entered; 
 (h) the Issuer or any of its Significant Subsidiaries pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:

  
 63 

 (i) commences a voluntary case, 

(ii) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case, 

(iii) consents to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its assets, or 

(iv) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors;

Section 6.02. Acceleration. 
 If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(h) or (i) hereof with respect to the Issuer) shall have occurred and be continuing under this Supplemental
Indenture, the Trustee, by written notice to the Issuer, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by written notice to the Issuer and the Trustee, may declare all amounts owing under the Notes to be
due and payable. Upon such declaration of acceleration, the aggregate principal of and accrued and unpaid interest on the outstanding Notes shall become due and payable; provided, however, that after such acceleration, but before a
judgment or decree based on acceleration, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of such outstanding Notes may rescind and annul such acceleration: 
 (a) if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree; 
 (b) if all
Events of Default, other than nonpayment of principal or interest that has become due solely because of the acceleration, have been cured or waived; 

  
 64 

 (c) to the extent the payment of such interest is lawful, interest on overdue installments
of interest and overdue principal, which has become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration, has been paid; 
 (d)
the Issuer has paid all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and its reasonable compensation and reimbursed the Trustee for its expenses, disbursements and advances and those of its agents and counsel; and 

(e) in the event of the cure or waiver of an Event of Default of the type described in Section 6.01(h) or (i) hereof, the
Trustee shall have received an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel that such Event of Default has been cured or waived. 
 No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(h) or (i) hereof occurs with respect to the Issuer
and is continuing, then all unpaid principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on all of the outstanding Notes shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any notice, declaration or other act on the
part of the Trustee or any Holder. 
 Section 6.03. Other Remedies. 

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy by proceeding at law or in equity to collect
the payment of principal of, or premium, if any, and interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Supplemental Indenture and may take any necessary action requested of it as Trustee to settle, compromise,
adjust or otherwise conclude any proceedings to which it is a party. 
 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 in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a
waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. No remedy is exclusive of any other remedy. All available remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law. 
 Section 6.04. Waiver of Past Defaults and Events of Default. 
 Subject
to Sections 6.02, 6.07 and 8.02 hereof, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding have the right to waive past Defaults under this Supplemental Indenture except a Default or Event of Default in the
payment of the principal of, or interest on, any Note as specified in clauses (a) and (b) of Section 6.01 hereof. The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that the requisite percentage of Holders
have consented to such waiver and attaching copies of such consents. In case of any such waiver, the Issuer, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder and under the Notes, respectively. 

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 Supplemental Indenture, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto. 

  
 65 

 Section 6.05. Control by Majority. 

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes have the right to 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 the Trustee by this Supplemental Indenture. The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law
or this Supplemental Indenture or that the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of another Holder not taking part in such direction, and the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee,
being advised by counsel, determines that the action so directed may not lawfully be taken or if the Trustee in good faith shall, by a Trust Officer, determine that the proceedings so directed may involve it in personal liability; provided
that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction. In the event the Trustee takes any action or follows any direction pursuant to this Supplemental Indenture, the Trustee shall be
entitled to indemnification reasonably satisfactory to it against any loss or expense caused by taking such action or following such direction. 
 Section 6.06. Limitation on Suits. 
 (a) Subject to Section 6.07
hereof, no Holder shall have any right to institute any proceeding with respect to this Supplemental Indenture or any remedy thereunder, unless the Trustee: 
 (i) has failed to act for a period of 60 days after receiving written notice of a continuing Event of Default by such Holder and a request to act by Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal
amount of Notes outstanding; 
 (ii) has been offered indemnity satisfactory to it in its reasonable judgment; and 

(iii) has not received from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes a direction inconsistent
with such request. 
 (b) However, such limitations do not apply to a suit instituted by a Holder for enforcement of payment of
the principal of or interest on such Note on or after the due date therefor (after giving effect to the grace period specified in Section 6.01(a) hereof). 
 (c) The Issuer is required to deliver to the Trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with this Supplemental Indenture and, upon any Officer of the Issuer becoming aware of any Default, a
statement specifying such Default and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. 

Section 6.07. Rights of Holders To Receive Payment. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Supplemental Indenture, the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of, or accrued interest on, any Note held by such Holder on or after the
respective due dates expressed in such Note, or to bring suit for the enforcement 

  
 66 

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

Section 6.08. Collection Suit by Trustee. 
 If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer for the whole amount of unpaid principal, premium
and accrued interest remaining unpaid, together with, to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest on overdue principal and interest on overdue installments of interest, in each case at the rate set forth in Section 4.01
hereof, and such further amounts as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel. 

Section 6.09. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 
 The Trustee may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer (or any other obligor upon the Notes), its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and
empowered to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same after deduction of its charges and expenses to the extent that any such charges and expenses are not paid out of the
estate in any such proceedings 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. 

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 thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceedings. 

Section 6.10. Priorities. 
 Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article and any other money or property distributable in respect of the Issuer’s obligations under this Supplemental Indenture after an Event of
Default shall be applied in the following order: 
 FIRST: to the Trustee (including any predecessor Trustee) 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: if the Holders are forced to proceed against the Issuer or any Guarantor directly without the Trustee, to Holders for their
collection costs; 

  
 67 

 THIRD: to Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for principal, premium, if any,
and interest as to each, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes; and 
 FOURTH: to the Issuer or, to the extent the Trustee collects any amounts from any Guarantor, to such Guarantor. 
 The Trustee, upon prior written notice to the Issuer, may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section 6.10. 

Section 6.11. Undertaking for Costs. 
 In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Supplemental Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, a court in its discretion may
require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, 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 pursuant to Section 6.07 hereof or a suit by Holders of more
than 10% in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding. 
 ARTICLE VII 

TRUSTEE 

Section 7.01. Duties of Trustee. 
 (a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Supplemental Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in

 (i) The Trustee need
perform only those duties as are specifically set forth in this Supplemental Indenture and no covenants or obligations shall be implied in this Supplemental Indenture against the Trustee.

the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Supplemental Indenture. However, the Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions which are specifically
required to be delivered to the Trustee by any provision of this Supplemental Indenture to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Supplemental Indenture. 

  
 68 

 (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, the Trustee may not be

received by it pursuant to Section 6.05 hereof. 
 (d) No provision of this Supplemental Indenture shall require the Trustee
to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such
funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. 
 (e) Whether or not herein
expressly provided, every provision of this Supplemental Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a), (b), (c) and (d) of this Section 7.01.

instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such
facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Issuer, personally or by agent or attorney at the sole cost
of the Issuer and shall incur no liability or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation. 
 (i)
The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and each
agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder. 

  
 69

enumerated in this Supplemental Indenture shall not be construed as a duty. 
 Section 7.02. Rights of Trustee.

the document. 
 (b) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting with respect to any matters contemplated by this
Supplemental Indenture or the Notes it may consult with counsel and may require an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel, or both, which shall conform to the provisions of Section 11.05 hereof. The Trustee shall be protected and
shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such certificate or opinion.

powers vested in it by this Supplemental Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Supplemental Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee
against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction. 
 (g)
The Trustee may request that the Issuer deliver an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Supplemental Indenture, which
Officer’s Certificate may be signed by any person authorized to sign an Officer’s Certificate, including any person specified as so authorized in any such certificate previously delivered and not superseded. 

(h) The Trustee shall not be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations under this Supplemental
Indenture arising out of or caused, directly or indirectly, by circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including, without limitation, acts of God; earthquakes; fire; flood; terrorism; wars and other military disturbances; sabotage; epidemics;
riots; interruptions; loss or malfunctions of utilities, computer (hardware or 

  
 70 

 
software) or communication services; accidents; labor disputes; acts of civil or military authority and governmental action. 

(i) Anything in this Supplemental Indenture notwithstanding, in no event shall the Trustee be liable for special, indirect, punitive or
consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to loss of profit), even if the Issuer has been advised as to the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. 

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 make loans to, accept deposits from, perform services for or otherwise deal with the Issuer, or any
Affiliates thereof, with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Agent may do the same with like rights. The Trustee, however, shall be subject to Sections 7.10 and 7.11 hereof. 

Section 7.04. Trustee’s Disclaimer. 
 The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Supplemental Indenture or the Notes, it shall not be accountable for the Issuer’s use of
the proceeds from the sale of Notes or any money paid to the Issuer pursuant to the terms of this Supplemental Indenture and it shall not be responsible for any statement of the Issuer in this Supplemental Indenture or the Notes other than the
Trustee’s certificate of authentication. 
 Section 7.05. Notice of Defaults. 

The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default unless a Trust Officer of the Trustee has received written notice of such
Default at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee. 
 If a Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee shall deliver to
each Holder notice of the Default within 30 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default in payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on any Note or a default in the observance or performance of any of the
obligations of the Issuer under Article 5, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Trust Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interest of the Holders. 

Section 7.06. Reports by Trustee to Holders. 
 If required by TIA Section 313(a), within 60 days after November 15 of any year, commencing the November 15 following the date of this Supplemental Indenture, the Trustee shall deliver
to each Holder a brief report dated as of such November 15 that complies with TIA Section 313(a). The Trustee also shall comply with TIA Section 313(b), (c) and (d). 

Reports pursuant to this Section 7.06 shall be transmitted by mail: 

(a) to all registered Holders, as the names and addresses of such Holders appear on the Registrar’s books; and 

  
 71 

 (b) to such Holders as have, within the two years preceding such transmission, filed their
names and addresses with the Trustee for that purpose. 
 A copy of each report at the time of its delivery to Holders shall be
filed with the Commission and each stock exchange, if any, on which the Notes are listed. The Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee when the Notes are listed on any stock exchange or of any delisting thereof. 

Section 7.07. Compensation and Indemnity. 
 The Issuer shall pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation as shall be agreed in writing between the Issuer and the Trustee for the Trustee’s services. The Trustee’s compensation
shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuer shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable fees and expenses, including out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it in connection with
the performance of its duties under this Supplemental Indenture or in connection with the collection of any funds. Such expenses shall include the reasonable fees and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel. 

The Issuer shall indemnify each of the Trustee and its agents, employees, shareholders and directors and officers for, and hold them
harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred by them (including attorney’s fees and expenses) arising out of or in connection with the administration of this trust including the reasonable costs and expenses of defending themselves
against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of their rights, powers or duties hereunder, except for such actions to the extent caused by any negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on their part. The
Trustee shall notify the Issuer promptly, in writing, of any claim asserted against the Trustee for which it may seek indemnity. At the Trustee’s sole discretion, the Issuer shall defend the claim and the Trustee shall cooperate and may
participate in the defense; provided that any settlement of a claim shall be approved in writing by the Trustee. The Issuer need not pay for any settlement made without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
The Issuer need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss or liability to the extent incurred by the Trustee through its negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. 

To secure the Issuer’s payment obligations in this Section 7.07, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Notes on all assets
or money held or collected by the Trustee, in its capacity as Trustee, except assets or money held in trust to pay principal of, premium or interest on particular Notes. 
 In addition and without prejudice to the rights provided to the Trustee under any provision of this Supplemental Indenture, when the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default
specified in Section 6.01(h) or (i) hereof occurs, such expenses and the compensation for such services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law. 

  
 72 

 The obligation of the Issuer under this Section 7.07 shall survive the resignation or
removal of the Trustee and the termination or satisfaction and discharge of this Supplemental Indenture. 
 “Trustee”
for purposes of this Section shall include any predecessor Trustee and the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder and to 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. 
 The Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the Issuer in writing. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the
Issuer in writing and may appoint a successor Trustee. The Issuer may remove the Trustee at its election if: 
 (a) the Trustee
fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof; 
 (b) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent; 

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

(d) the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting. 
 If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason (the Trustee in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Trustee), the Issuer shall promptly
appoint a successor Trustee. Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes may appoint a successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Issuer. 

A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuer. Immediately after
that, the retiring Trustee shall transfer, after payment of all sums then owing to the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.07 hereof, all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the lien provided in Section 7.07
hereof, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Supplemental Indenture. A successor Trustee shall deliver notice of its
succession to each Holder. 
 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 principal amount of the outstanding Notes may petition, at the expense of the Issuer, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

 If the Trustee, after written request by any Holder who has been a bona fide holder of securities for any period of time
specified under TIA Section 3.10, 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. 

  
 73 

 Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08, the
Issuer’s obligations under Section 7.07 hereof shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee. 

Section 7.09. Successor Trustee by Consolidation, Merger or Conversion. 

If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to,
another corporation, subject to this Article 7, the successor corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee. 
 Section 7.10. Eligibility; Disqualification. 
 This Supplemental
Indenture shall always have a Trustee which shall be eligible to act as Trustee under TIA Sections 310(a)(1), 310(a)(2) and 310(a)(5). The Trustee shall have a combined capital and surplus, together with its corporate parent, of at least
$100,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. If the Trustee has or shall acquire any “conflicting interest” within the meaning of TIA Section 310(b), the Trustee and the Issuer shall comply with
the provisions of TIA Section 310(b); provided, however, that there shall be excluded from the operation of TIA Section 310(b)(1) any indenture or indentures under which other securities or certificates of interest or
participation in other securities of the Issuer are outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in TIA Section 310(b)(1) are met. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 7.10, the Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinbefore specified in this Article 7. 
 Section 7.11. Preferential Collection of Claims Against the Issuer. 

The Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA Section 311(b). A Trustee
who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA Section 311(a) to the extent indicated therein. The provisions of TIA Section 311 shall apply to the Issuer as obligors of the Notes. 

ARTICLE VIII 

AMENDMENTS, SUPPLEMENTS AND WAIVERS 
 Section 8.01. Without Consent of Holders. 
 The Issuer and the
Guarantors, if any (except that no existing Guarantor need execute a supplemental indenture substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto pursuant to clause (g) of this Section 8.01), when authorized by a Board Resolution, and the
Trustee may amend or supplement this Supplemental Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees without notice to or consent of any Holder:

uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes;

Indenture);

Act; 
 (j) to secure the Notes or any Note Guarantees or any other obligation under this Supplemental Indenture; or

Section 8.02. With Consent of Holders. 
 (a) Subject to Section 6.07 hereof, the Issuer and the Guarantors, if any, when each is authorized by a Board Resolution of their respective Boards of Directors, and the Trustee may amend or
supplement this Supplemental Indenture or the Notes or the Note Guarantees with the written consent (which may include consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for Notes) of the Holders of at least a majority in
principal amount of the outstanding Notes. Subject to Section 6.07 hereof, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may waive compliance by the Issuer, or any Guarantor with any provision of this Supplemental
Indenture, the Notes, or the Note Guarantees. However, without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver, including a waiver pursuant to Section 6.04 hereof, may not: 

(i) reduce, or change the maturity of, the principal of any Note (it being understood that any amendment or waiver of Section 4.12
hereof requiring the application of Net Available Proceeds to make a Net Proceeds Offer shall not constitute a change of the maturity of the principal of any Note under this clause (i)); 

  
 75 

 (ii) reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest on any Note; 

(iii) reduce any premium payable upon redemption of the Notes or change the date on which any Notes are subject to redemption (other than
provisions relating to the purchase of Notes described under Sections 4.12 and 4.15 hereof, except that if a Change of Control has occurred, no amendment or other modification of the obligation of the Issuer to make a Change of Control Offer
relating to such Change of Control shall be made without the consent of each Holder of the Notes affected); 
 (iv) make any
Note payable in money or currency other than that stated in the Notes; 
 (v) modify or change any provision of this
Supplemental Indenture or the related definitions to affect the ranking of the Notes or any Note Guarantee in a manner that adversely affects the Holders; 
 (vi) reduce the percentage of Holders necessary to consent to an amendment or waiver to this Supplemental Indenture or the Notes; 
 (vii) waive a default in the payment of principal of or premium or interest on any Notes (except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Holders thereof as provided in this Supplemental Indenture
and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration); 
 (viii) impair the rights of Holders to receive
payments of principal of or interest on the Notes on or after the due date therefor or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on the Notes; 
 (ix) release any Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary from any of its obligations under its Note Guarantee or this Supplemental Indenture, except as permitted by this Supplemental Indenture; or

 (x) make any change in these amendment and waiver provisions. 

The consent of the Holders of the Notes is not necessary under this Supplemental Indenture to approve the particular form of any proposed
amendment or waiver. It is sufficient if such consent approves the substance of the proposed amendment or waiver. 
 After an
amendment under this Supplemental Indenture becomes effective, the Issuer is required to deliver to Holders of the Notes a notice briefly describing such amendment. However, the failure to give such notice to all Holders of the Notes, or any defect
therein, will not impair or affect the validity of the amendment. 
 Section 8.03. Compliance with TIA. 

Every amendment to or supplement of this Supplemental Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees shall comply with the TIA as then in
effect. 

  
 76 

 Section 8.04. Revocation and Effect of Consents. 

Until an amendment, waiver or supplement becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder is a continuing consent by the Holder 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. Subject to the following paragraph, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may
revoke the consent as to such Holder’s Note or portion of such Note by notice to the Trustee or the Issuer received before the date on which the Trustee receives an Officer’s Certificate certifying that the Holders of the requisite
principal amount of Notes have consented (and not theretofore revoked such consent) to the amendment, supplement or waiver. 

The Issuer may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to consent to any
amendment, supplement or waiver. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the last sentence of 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 revoke any consent previously given, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 90 days after such record date. 

After an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder, unless it makes a change described in any of
clauses (i) through (x) of Section 8.02 hereof, in which case, the amendment, supplement or waiver shall bind only each Holder who has consented to it and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same
debt as the consenting Holder’s Note; provided that any such waiver shall not impair or affect the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of and interest on a Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in such
Note, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates without the consent of such Holder. 
 Section 8.05. Notation on or Exchange of Notes. 
 If an amendment,
supplement, or waiver changes the terms of a Note, the Trustee may request the Holder to deliver it to the Trustee. In such case, the Trustee shall place an appropriate notation on the Note about the changed terms and return it to the Holder.
Alternatively, if the Issuer or the Trustee so determine, in exchange for the Note the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Note that reflects the changed terms. Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note
shall not affect the validity and effect of such amendment supplement or waiver. 
 Section 8.06. Trustee To Sign
Amendments, etc. 
 The Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of
Counsel stating that the execution of any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article 8 is authorized or permitted by this Supplemental Indenture and that such amendment, supplement or waiver constitutes the legal, valid
and binding obligation of the Issuer and any Guarantors, enforceable in accordance with its terms (subject to customary exceptions). The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, execute any such

  
 77 

 
amendment, supplement or waiver which affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Supplemental Indenture or otherwise. 

ARTICLE IX

expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Supplemental Indenture, when: 
 (i) all the Notes that have been authenticated and delivered (except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes which have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has been deposited in trust or

legal tender, U.S. Government Obligations or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient (without consideration of any reinvestment of interest) to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness (including all principal and accrued
interest) on the Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, (B) the Issuer has paid all other sums payable by it under this Supplemental Indenture, and (C) the Issuer has delivered irrevocable instructions to the
Trustee to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at maturity or on the date of redemption, as the case may be. 
 (b) In addition, the Issuer must deliver an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been complied with. 

(c) Notwithstanding Section 9.01(a) hereof, the Issuer’s obligations in Article 2 and Sections 4.01, 4.07, 7.07, 9.06
and 9.07 hereof shall survive until the Notes are no longer outstanding pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 2.08 hereof. After the Notes are no longer outstanding, the Issuer’s obligations in Sections 7.07, 9.06 and 9.07 hereof
shall survive. 
 (d) After such delivery or irrevocable deposit, the Trustee upon request shall acknowledge in writing the
discharge of the Issuer’s and each Guarantor’s obligations under the Notes, the Note Guarantees and this Supplemental Indenture except for those surviving obligations specified above. 

  
 78 

 (e) The Issuer shall provide notice of discharge or defeasance pursuant to this
Article 9 within ten (10) days after deposit of funds or U.S. Government Obligations. If payment at stated maturity of less than all of the Notes of any series is to be provided for in the manner and with the effect provided in this
Section 9.01, the Trustee shall select such Notes, or portions or principal amount thereof, in the manner specified by Section 3.02 hereof for selection for redemption of less than all the Notes of a series. 

Section 9.02. Legal Defeasance. 
 (a) The Issuer may, at its option at any time, elect to have this Section 9.02 be applied to all outstanding Notes upon compliance with the conditions set forth in Section 9.04 hereof.

 (b) Upon the Issuer’s exercise under paragraph (a) hereof of the option applicable to this paragraph (b), the
Issuer and each Guarantor shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 9.04 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from their respective obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes and 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 each Guarantor shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire
Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes and the Note Guarantees, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 9.05 hereof and the other Sections of this Supplemental Indenture
referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) below, and to have satisfied all their other respective obligations under such Notes and this Supplemental 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 shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (i) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive solely from the trust fund described in
Section 9.05 hereof, and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of, and interest on, such Notes when such payments are due from such trust fund, (ii) the Issuer’s obligations with respect to such
Notes under Article 2 and Section 4.07 hereof, (iii) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and the Issuer’s obligations in connection therewith and (iv) this Section 9.02. Subject to
compliance with this Article 9, the Issuer may exercise its option under this Section 9.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 9.03 hereof with respect to the Notes. 

Section 9.03. Covenant Defeasance. 
 (a) The Issuer may, at its option by Board Resolution of the Board of Directors of the Issuer, at any time, elect to have this Section 9.03 be applied to all outstanding Notes upon compliance with
the conditions set forth in Section 9.04 hereof. 
 (b) Upon the Issuer’s exercise under paragraph (a) hereof of
the option applicable to this paragraph (b), the Issuer and each Guarantor shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 9.04 hereof, be released from their respective obligations under the covenants contained
in Sections 4.05 and 4.08 through 4.20 hereof, inclusive, and subclause (iii) of Section 5.01(a) hereof with respect to the outstanding Notes and the Note Guarantees on and after the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied
(hereinafter, 

  
 79 

 
“Covenant Defeasance”); provided, however, that Covenant Defeasance will not be effective until such time as Events of Default contained in Section 6.01(h) and
(i) hereof no longer apply, and the Notes and the Note Guarantees shall 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 shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder. For this purpose, such Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes and the Note Guarantees, the
Issuer and each Guarantor may omit to comply with and shall 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 shall not constitute a Default or an Event or Default under Section 6.01(c) hereof, but, except as
specified above, the remainder of this Supplemental Indenture, and such Notes and the Note Guarantees shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Issuer’s exercise under paragraph (a) hereof of the option applicable to this
paragraph (b), subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 9.04 hereof, the Events of Default described under clauses (c) (only with respect to the failure of the Issuer to comply with subclause (iii) of
Section 5.01(a) hereof), (d), (e) (only with respect to covenants that are released as a result of such Covenant Defeasance), (f) and (g) of Section 6.01 hereof and the Events of Default described under clauses (h),
(i) and (j) of Section 6.01 hereof (but only with respect to Significant Subsidiaries of the Issuer), in each case, will no longer constitute an Event of Default. 

Section 9.04. Conditions to Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 

The following shall be the conditions to the application of either Section 9.02 or 9.03 hereof to the outstanding Notes and the Note
Guarantees: 
 (a) the Issuer must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee), as trust funds, in trust
solely for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. legal tender or U.S. Government Obligations, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient (without consideration of any reinvestment of interest), in the opinion of a nationally
recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firms of independent public accountants selected by the Issuer, to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes on the scheduled due dates or on the applicable Redemption Date, as the case may be,
provided that the Trustee shall have received an irrevocable written order from the Issuer instructing the Trustee to apply such U.S. legal tender or the proceeds of such U.S. Government Obligations to said payments with respect to such
Notes; 
 (b) in the case of an election under Section 9.02 hereof, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an
Opinion of Counsel 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 Supplemental 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 will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result
of such deposit, Legal Defeasance and discharge 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; 

  
 80 

 (c) in the case of an election under Section 9.03 hereof, the Issuer shall have
delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the Holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit, Covenant Defeasance and discharge
and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred; 

(d) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of
Default resulting solely from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit); 
 (e) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant
Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of or constitute a default under this Supplemental Indenture or any other material agreement or instrument to which the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Issuer or any
of its Subsidiaries is bound (other than any such Default or default resulting solely from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit); 
 (f) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuer with the intent of preferring the Holders over any other creditors of
the Issuer or with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any other creditors of the Issuer or others; and 

(g) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that the
conditions precedent provided for in, in the case of the Officer’s Certificate, clauses (a) through (f) and, in the case of the Opinion of Counsel, clauses (b) and/or (c) and (e) of this Section 9.04 have been
complied with. 
 Section 9.05. Application of Trust Money. 

All money and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 9.01 or
9.04 hereof in respect of the outstanding Notes shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Supplemental Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any 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 accrued interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by
law. 
 The Issuer and the Guarantors shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or
assessed against the U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 9.01 or 9.04 hereof or the principal, premium, if any, 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. 
 Anything in this Article 9 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to
the Issuer from time to time upon a written request of the Issuer in the form of an Officer’s Certificate any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 9.01 or 9.04 hereof which, in the opinion of a
nationally-recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of 

  
 81 

 
the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 

Section 9.06. Repayment to the Issuer. 
 Subject to Sections 9.01, 9.02, 9.03, 9.04, 9.05 and 9.07 hereof, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuer upon request any excess U.S. legal tender or U.S. Government
Obligations held by them at any time and thereupon shall be relieved from all liability with respect to such money. Subject to applicable abandoned property laws, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Issuer upon request any money held
by them for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest that remains unclaimed for two years; provided that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any payment, may at the expense of the Issuer cause to be
published once in a newspaper of general circulation in the City of New York or deliver to each Holder entitled to such money notice that such money remains unclaimed, and that after a date specified therein which shall be at least 30 days from
the date of such publication or delivery, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Issuer. After payment to the Issuer, Holders entitled to such money must look to the Issuer for payment as general creditors unless an
applicable law designates another Person. 
 Section 9.07. Reinstatement. 

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 9.01, 9.02 or
9.03 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 each Guarantor’s obligations
under this Supplemental Indenture, the Notes and the Note Guarantees shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article 9 until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such U.S.
legal tender or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 9.01 hereof; provided, however, that if the Issuer or the Guarantors have made any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or accrued interest on any Notes
because of the reinstatement of their obligations, the Issuer and each such Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying
Agent. 
 ARTICLE X 
 GUARANTEES 
 Section 10.01. Unconditional Guarantee. 

Each Guarantor, if any, hereby unconditionally, jointly and severally, guarantees to each Holder of a Note authenticated by the Trustee
and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns that the principal of, premium thereon (if any) and interest on the Notes will be promptly paid in full when due, subject to any applicable grace period, whether at maturity, by acceleration or
otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on any overdue interest on the Notes and all other obligations of the Issuer to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or under the Notes will be promptly paid in full or performed, all
in accordance with the terms hereof and 

  
 82 

 
thereof; subject, however, to the limitations set forth in Section 10.03 hereof. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, its obligations
hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Supplemental Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder with respect to any
provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuer, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a Guarantor. To the maximum extent
permitted under applicable law, 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 covenants that the Note Guarantee will not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Supplemental Indenture. If any Holder or the Trustee is
required by any court or otherwise to return to the Issuer, any Guarantor, or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to the Issuer or any Guarantor, any amount paid by the Issuer or any Guarantor to the
Trustee or such Holder, each Note Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect. Each Guarantor further agrees that, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, as between a Guarantor, on the
one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations in respect of the Note Guarantees hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 hereof for the purpose of each Note Guarantee,
notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6 hereof, such
obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall become due and payable by each Guarantor for the purpose of each Note Guarantee. 
 Each Guarantor agrees to make immediate payment to the Trustee on behalf of the Holders of all Obligations owing or payable to the respective Holders upon receipt of a demand for payment therefor (if then
permitted pursuant to this Supplemental Indenture) by the Trustee to such Guarantor in writing. 
 Each Guarantor also agrees to
pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Trustee or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this Article 10. 
 Section 10.02. Severability. 
 In case any provision of this
Article 10 shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 

Section 10.03. Limitation on Guarantor’s 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, foreign or state

  
 83 

 
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 under its Note Guarantee and this Article 10 shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor (including any and all guarantees under the Credit
Facilities) 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. Each Guarantor that makes a payment for distribution under its Note Guarantee is entitled to a
contribution from each other Guarantor in a pro rata amount based on the adjusted net assets of each Guarantor. 

Section 10.04. Successors and Assigns. 
 This Article 10 shall be binding upon each Guarantor and its successors and assigns and shall ensure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Trustee and the Holders and, in the event of
any transfer or assignment of rights by any Holder or the Trustee, the rights and privileges conferred upon that party in this Supplemental Indenture and in the Notes shall automatically extend to and be vested in such transferee or assignee, all
subject to the terms and conditions of this Supplemental Indenture. 
 Section 10.05. No Waiver. 

Each of the Guarantors agrees that to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, (a) neither a failure nor a delay on the
part of either the Trustee or the Holders in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Article 10 shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any right,
power or privilege and (b) the rights, remedies and benefits of the Trustee and the Holders herein expressly specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights, remedies or benefits which either may have under this Article 10
at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise. 
 Section 10.06. Release of Guarantor. 

A Guarantor shall be released from all of its obligations under its Note Guarantee and its obligations under this Supplemental Indenture:

 (a) in the event of a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of such Guarantor, by way of merger,
consolidation or otherwise, or a sale or other disposition of all of the Voting Stock of such Guarantor then held by the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries; 
 (b) if such Subsidiary Guarantor is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary or otherwise ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary, in each case in accordance with the provisions of this Supplemental
Indenture, upon effectiveness of such designation or when it first ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary, respectively; 
 (c) if
such Guarantor would no longer be required to issue a Note Guarantee as required under Section 4.19 hereof, including, without limitation, upon the release of the 

  
 84 

 
Guarantor from its liability in respect of Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary that required the Guarantor to initially Guarantee the Notes; provided that a Guarantor
shall not be permitted to be released from its Note Guarantee if it is an obligor with respect to Indebtedness that would not, under Section 4.10 hereof be permitted to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary; 

(d) upon Legal Defeasance of the Notes or satisfaction and discharge of this Supplemental Indenture as provided by Article 9; or

 (e) with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding in accordance
with Article 8. 
 Upon delivery by the Issuer to the Trustee of an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the
effect that one of the foregoing requirements has been satisfied and the conditions to the release of a Guarantor from its Note Guarantee under this Section 10.06 have been met, the Trustee shall execute any documents reasonably required in
order to evidence the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under its Note Guarantee. 
 Section 10.07.
Execution of Supplemental Indenture for Future Guarantors. Each Subsidiary which is required to become a Guarantor shall, and the Issuer shall cause each such Subsidiary to, promptly execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture
substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto pursuant to which such Subsidiary shall become a Guarantor under this Article 10 and shall guarantee the obligations of the Issuer under the Notes and this Supplemental Indenture.
Concurrently with the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture, the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such supplemental indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such
Subsidiary and that, subject to the application of bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or transfer and other similar laws relating to creditors’ rights generally and to the principles of equity, whether considered in a
proceeding at law or in equity, the Note Guarantee of such Guarantor is a valid and binding obligation of such Guarantor, enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance with its terms. 

Section 10.08. Notation of Note Guarantee. 
 To evidence the Note Guarantee set forth in this Article 10, each Guarantor hereby agrees that a notation of such Note Guarantee shall be placed on each Note authenticated and made available for
delivery by the Trustee and that this Note Guarantee shall be executed on behalf of each Guarantor by the manual or facsimile signature of an Officer of each Guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that the Note Guarantee set forth in
Section 10.01 hereof shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Note Guarantee. If an Officer of a Guarantor whose signature is on the Note Guarantee no longer holds that office
at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note on which the Note Guarantee is endorsed, the Note Guarantee shall be valid nevertheless. The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due
delivery of the Note Guarantee set forth in this Supplemental Indenture on behalf of each Guarantor. 

  
 85 

 Section 10.09. Subordination of Subrogation and Other Rights. Each Guarantor
hereby agrees that any claim against the Issuer that arises from the payment, performance or enforcement of such Guarantor’s obligations under the Note Guarantee or this Supplemental Indenture, including, without limitation, any right of
subrogation, shall be subject and subordinate to, and no payment with respect to any such claim of such Guarantor shall be made before, the payment in full in cash of all outstanding Notes in accordance with the provisions provided therefor in this
Supplemental Indenture.

 (REVERSE OF SECURITY) 

7.375% SENIOR NOTE DUE 2021 
 1. INTEREST. American Greetings Corporation, an Ohio corporation (the “Issuer”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the
rate per annum shown above. Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date on which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of the original issuance of the Notes. The Issuer will pay interest semi-annually
in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, commencing June 1, 2012. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 
 The Issuer shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium and on overdue installments of interest (including
post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) (without regard to any applicable grace periods) to the extent lawful from time to time on demand at a rate that is 1% per annum in excess of the rate then in effect on the
Notes. 
 2. METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Issuer shall pay interest
on the Notes (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are the registered Holders at the close of business on the May 15 or November 15 immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date (whether or not such day is a Business Day) even
if the Notes are cancelled on registration of transfer or registration of exchange after such Record Date. Holders must surrender Notes to a Paying Agent to collect principal payments. Payments of principal and premium, if any, will be made (on
presentation of such Notes if in certificated form) in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; provided, however, that the Issuer may pay principal, premium and
interest by check payable in such money or if a Holder has given transfer instructions to the Issuer at least ten Business Days prior to the applicable payment date, the Issuer will make all payments on such Holder’s Notes by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to the account specified in those instructions. The Issuer may deliver any such interest payment to the Paying Agent or to a Holder at the Holder’s registered address. 

3. PAYING AGENT AND REGISTRAR. Initially, The Bank of
Nova Scotia Trust Company of New York, a trust company organized and existing under the laws of the State of New York (the “Trustee”), will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent, Registrar or
co-Registrar without notice to the Holders. Neither the Issuer nor any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates may act as Paying Agent but may act as Registrar or co-Registrar. 
 4. SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE. The Issuer issued this Note under the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of November 30, 2011 (the
“Supplemental Indenture”), by and between the Issuer and the Trustee, to the Base Indenture, dated as of November 30, 2011 (the “Base Indenture”), by and between the Issuer and the Trustee. This Note is one of
a duly authorized issue of Initial Notes of the Issuer designated as its 7.375% Senior Notes due 2021 (the “Notes”). The Notes include the Initial Notes and the Additional Notes, if any. The Initial Notes and the Additional Notes
are treated as a single class of securities under the Supplemental Indenture. Capitalized terms herein are used as defined in the Supplemental Indenture unless otherwise defined herein. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Supplemental
Indenture and those made part of the Supplemental Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture 

  
 A-4

 
Act of 1939 (15 U.S. Code Sections 77aaa-77bbbb) (the “TIA”), as in effect on the date of the Supplemental Indenture. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the
Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Supplemental Indenture and the TIA for a statement of them. The Notes are general unsecured obligations of the Issuer. 

5. REDEMPTION. 
 (a) Optional Redemption. Except as set forth below, the Notes shall not be redeemed prior to December 1, 2016. At any time or from time to time on or after December 1, 2016, the Issuer,
at its option, may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at the Redemption Prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the Redemption Date, if redeemed during
the 12-month period beginning December 1 of the years indicated: 
  

					
	 Year
	  	Percentage	 
	 2016
	  	 	103.688	% 
	 2017
	  	 	102.458	% 
	 2018
	  	 	101.229	% 
	 2019 and thereafter
	  	 	100.000	% 

 (b) Redemption at Applicable Premium. In addition, at any time prior to December 1, 2016 the
Notes may also be redeemed or purchased (by the Issuer or any other Person) in whole or in part, at the Issuer’s option, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued but unpaid
interest, if any, to, the Redemption Date or the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date). 

(c) Redemption upon Consummation of Certain Qualified Equity Offerings. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time or from time to
time prior to December 1, 2014, the Issuer, at its option, may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes issued under the Supplemental Indenture with the net cash proceeds of one or more Qualified Equity Offerings at a
Redemption Price equal to 107.375% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the Redemption Date; provided that (1) at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued
under the Supplemental Indenture remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption and (2) the redemption occurs within 90 days of the date of the closing of any such Qualified Equity Offering. 

  
 A-5

 6. NOTICE OF REDEMPTION.
Notice of redemption under paragraph 5 of this Note will be delivered at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder to be redeemed, except that redemption notices may be delivered more than
60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a satisfaction and discharge of the Supplemental Indenture. 
 Except as set forth in the Supplemental Indenture, if monies for the redemption of the Notes called for redemption shall have been deposited with the Paying Agent for redemption on such redemption date,
then, unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of such redemption price plus accrued interest, if any, the Notes called for redemption will cease to bear interest from and after such redemption date and the only right of the Holders of such Notes
will be to receive payment of the redemption price plus accrued interest, if any. 
 7 OFFERS
TO PURCHASE. The Supplemental Indenture provides that, after certain Asset Sales and upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, and subject to further limitations contained therein, the Issuer will
make an offer to purchase certain amounts of the Notes in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Supplemental Indenture. 
 8. DENOMINATIONS; TRANSFER; EXCHANGE. The Notes are in registered form, without coupons, in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral
multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. A Holder shall register the transfer or exchange of Notes in accordance with the Supplemental Indenture. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer
documents and to pay certain transfer taxes or similar governmental charges payable in connection therewith as permitted by the Supplemental Indenture. The Registrar need not register the transfer of or exchange of any Notes or portions thereof
selected for redemption. 
 9. PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. The
registered holder of a Note shall be treated as the owner of it for all purposes. 
 10. UNCLAIMED
MONEY. If money for the payment of principal or interest remains unclaimed for two years, the Trustee and the Paying Agent will pay the money back to the Issuer. After that, Holders entitled to money must look to
the Issuer for payment as general creditors unless an “abandoned property” law designates another person. 
 11.
LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE. If the Issuer at any time deposits with the Trustee U.S. legal tender or U.S. Government Obligations
sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes to redemption or maturity and complies with the other provisions of the Supplemental Indenture relating to defeasance, the Issuer will be discharged from certain provisions of the
Supplemental Indenture and the Notes (including certain covenants, but excluding its obligation to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes). 
 12. AMENDMENTS, SUPPLEMENTS, AND WAIVERS. Subject to certain exceptions, the Supplemental Indenture or the Notes may be
amended or supplemented with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, and any existing Default or Event of Default or noncompliance with any provision may be waived with
the written consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the 

  
 A-6

 
Notes then outstanding. Without notice to or consent of any Holder, the parties thereto may amend or supplement the Supplemental Indenture or the Notes to, among other things, cure any ambiguity,
defect or inconsistency, provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes, to provide for the assumption of the Issuer’s or any Guarantor’s obligations to the Holders in the case of a merger, consolidation
or sale of all or substantially all of the assets in accordance with Article 5 of the Supplemental Indenture, to release any Guarantor from any of its obligations under its Note Guarantee or the Supplemental Indenture (to the extent permitted
by the Supplemental Indenture), to conform the text of the Supplemental Indenture or the Notes to any provision of the “Description of the notes” section of the Prospectus Supplement to the extent that such provision was intended to be a
verbatim recitation of a provision of the Supplemental Indenture or the Notes, to provide for the issuance of Additional Notes in accordance with the limitations set forth in the Supplemental Indenture, to allow any Subsidiary to execute a
supplement to the Supplemental Indenture and/or a Note Guarantee, to make any change that does not materially adversely affect the rights of any Holder or, in the case of the Supplemental Indenture, to maintain the qualification of the Supplemental
Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act. 
 13. RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS. The
Supplemental Indenture imposes certain limitations on the ability of each of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries to, among other things, incur additional Indebtedness, make payments in respect of its Equity Interests, enter into transactions with
Affiliates, create dividend or other payment restrictions affecting Restricted Subsidiaries, enter into sale and leaseback transactions, sell assets, create liens, issue capital stock, make certain Investments, merge or consolidate with any other
Person, or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets. Such limitations are subject to a number of important qualifications and exceptions. The Issuer must annually report to the Trustee on
compliance with such limitations. 
 14. SUCCESSOR ENTITY. When a successor
entity assumes, in accordance with the Supplemental Indenture, all the obligations of its predecessor under the Notes and the Supplemental Indenture, and immediately before and thereafter no Default or Event of Default exists and certain other
conditions are satisfied, the predecessor entity will be released from those obligations. 
 15. DEFAULTS
AND REMEDIES. Events of Default are set forth in the Supplemental Indenture. If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(h) or (i) of the Supplemental
Indenture) shall occur and be continuing, the Trustee, by written notice to the Issuer, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by written notice to the Issuer and the Trustee, may declare (an
“acceleration declaration”) all amounts owing under the Notes to be due and payable; provided, however, that after such acceleration but before a judgment or decree based on acceleration, the Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the outstanding Notes may rescind and annul such acceleration and its consequences if all existing Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of principal, premium and interest that has become due solely because of the
acceleration, have been cured or waived. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto. In case an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(h) or (i) of the Supplemental Indenture occurs
with respect to the Issuer and is continuing, such principal amount, together with premium and interest with respect to all of the Notes, shall be due and payable immediately without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or the
Holders. 

  
 A-7

 16. TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH
THE ISSUER. The Trustee under the Supplemental Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Issuer, and may otherwise deal
with the Issuer, its Subsidiaries or their respective Affiliates as if it were not the Trustee. 
 17. NO
RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. As more fully described in the Supplemental Indenture, no director, officer, employee, shareholder or incorporator, as such, of the Issuer shall have any
liability for any obligation of the Issuer under the Notes or the Supplemental Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such
liability. Such waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes. 
 18.
AUTHENTICATION. This Note shall not be valid until the Trustee or Authenticating Agent manually signs the certificate of authentication on this Note. 

19. GOVERNING LAW. THIS NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH
THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
 20. ABBREVIATIONS AND DEFINED
TERMS. Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TENENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and
not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act).

 22. SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE. Each Holder, by accepting a Note, agrees to be bound by all of the terms and provisions of the Supplemental Indenture, as
the same may be amended from time to time.
