	2.	Exchange Offer 

  

	 	(a)	Unless the Exchange Offer would not be permitted by applicable laws or a policy of the SEC, the Company shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to) (i) prepare and
file with the SEC promptly after the date hereof, but in no event later than the Filing Date, a registration statement (the “Exchange Offer Registration Statement”) on an appropriate form under the Securities Act with respect to an
offer (the “Exchange Offer”) to the Holders of Notes to issue and deliver to such Holders, in exchange for the Notes, a like principal amount of Exchange Notes, (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement to become effective as of the Effectiveness Date, (iii) use its best efforts to keep the Exchange Offer Registration Statement effective until the consummation of the Exchange Offer in accordance with its terms and
(iv) commence the Exchange Offer as soon as practicable after the date on which the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is declared effective. The Exchange Offer shall not be subject to any conditions, other than that the Exchange Offer does
not violate applicable law or any applicable interpretation of the staff of the SEC. 

  

	 	(b)	The Exchange Notes shall be issued under, and entitled to the benefits of, (i) the Indenture or a trust indenture that is identical to the Indenture, other than
such changes as are necessary to comply with any requirements of the SEC to effect or maintain the qualifications thereof under the TIA and (ii) the Collateral Agreements. 

 

	 	(c)	Interest on the Exchange Notes will accrue from the last interest payment due date on which interest was paid on the Notes surrendered in exchange therefor or, if no
interest has been paid on the Notes, from the date of original issue of the Notes. Each Exchange Note shall bear interest at the rate set forth thereon; provided, that interest with respect to the period prior to the issuance thereof shall
accrue at the rate or rates borne by the Notes from time to time during such period. 

  

	 	(d)	The Company may require each Holder as a condition to participation in the Exchange Offer to represent (i) that any Exchange Notes received by it will be acquired
in the ordinary course of its business, (ii) that at the time of the commencement and consummation of the Exchange Offer such Holder has not entered into any arrangement or understanding with any Person to participate in the distribution
(within the meaning of the Securities Act) of the Exchange Notes in violation of the provisions of the Securities Act, (iii) that such Holder is not an “affiliate” of the Company within the meaning of Rule 405 of the Securities Act
or, if such Holder is an “affiliate” of the Company within the meaning of Rule 405 of the Securities Act, it will comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act to the extent applicable to it,
(iv) if such Holder is not a broker-dealer, that it is not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in, the distribution of the Notes and (v) if such Holder is a Participating Broker-Dealer, that it will deliver a Prospectus in connection
with any resale of the Exchange Notes. 

  
 6 

	 	(e)	The Company shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to) include within the Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement a section entitled “Plan
of Distribution” reasonably acceptable to the Initial Purchaser which shall contain a summary statement of the positions taken or policies made by the staff of the SEC with respect to the potential “underwriter” status of any
broker-dealer that is the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) of Exchange Notes received by such broker-dealer in the Exchange Offer for its own account in exchange for Notes that were acquired by it as a result of
market-making or other trading activity (a “Participating Broker-Dealer”), whether such positions or policies have been publicly disseminated by the staff of the SEC or such positions or policies, in the judgment of the Initial
Purchaser, represent the prevailing views of the staff of the SEC. Such “Plan of Distribution” section shall also allow, to the extent permitted by applicable policies and regulations of the SEC, the use of the Prospectus by all Persons
subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act, including, to the extent so permitted, all Participating Broker-Dealers, for 180 days following the date on which the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is declared effective
(or such shorter period during which Persons are required by law to deliver the Prospectus) (the “Applicable Period”), and include a statement describing the manner in which Participating Broker-Dealers may resell the Exchange
Notes. The Company shall use its best efforts to keep the Exchange Offer Registration Statement effective and to amend and supplement the Prospectus contained therein, in order to permit such Prospectus to be lawfully delivered by all Persons
subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act during the Applicable Period. 

  

	 	(f)	In connection with the Exchange Offer, the Company shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to): 

 

	 	(i)	mail to each Holder a copy of the Prospectus forming part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, together with an appropriate letter of transmittal that is an
exhibit to the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, and any related documents; 

  

	 	(ii)	keep the Exchange Offer open for not less than 30 days after the date notice thereof is mailed to the Holders (or longer if required by applicable law);

  

	 	(iii)	utilize the services of a depository for the Exchange Offer with an address in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York, which may be the Trustee or an affiliate
thereof; 

  
 7 

	 	(iv)	permit Holders to withdraw tendered Transfer Restricted Securities at any time prior to the close of business, New York time, on the last Business Day on which the
Exchange Offer shall remain open; and 

  

	 	(v)	otherwise comply in all material respects with all applicable laws. 

  

	 	(g)	As soon as practicable after the close of the Exchange Offer, the Company shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to): 

 

	 	(i)	accept for exchange all Transfer Restricted Securities validly tendered pursuant to the Exchange Offer, and not validly withdrawn; 

 

	 	(ii)	deliver to the Trustee for cancellation all Transfer Restricted Securities so accepted for exchange; and 

 

	 	(iii)	cause the Trustee to authenticate and deliver promptly to each Holder tendering such Transfer Restricted Securities or Exchange Notes, as the case may be, equal in
principal amount to the Notes of such Holder so accepted for exchange. 

  

	 	(h)	The Exchange Notes may be issued under (i) the Indenture or (ii) an indenture identical to the Indenture (other than such changes as are necessary to comply
with any requirements of the SEC to effect or maintain the qualification thereof under the TIA), which in either event will provide that the Exchange Notes will not be subject to the transfer restrictions set forth in the Indenture and that the
Exchange Notes and the Notes, if any, will be deemed one class of security (subject to the provisions of the Indenture) and entitled to participate in all the security granted by the Company pursuant to the Collateral Agreements and in any
Subsidiary Guarantee (as such terms are defined in the Indenture) on an equal and ratable basis. 

  

	 	(i)	 If: (i) a Purchaser notifies the Company following consummation of the Exchange Offer that the Notes held by it are not eligible to be exchanged
for the Exchange Notes in the Exchange Offer; (ii) applicable law or interpretations of the staff of the SEC would not permit the consummation of the Exchange Offer; (iii) the Exchange Offer is not consummated within 310 days of the
Closing Date for any reason; and (iv) certain Holders are prohibited by law or SEC policy from participating in the Exchange Offer or may not resell the Exchange Notes acquired by them in the Exchange Offer to the public without delivering a
prospectus, in each such case contemplated by clause (i) and this clause (iv), such Holder or Purchaser notifies the Company within six months of consummation of the Exchange Offer, then the Company shall promptly (and in any event within five
Business Days) deliver to the Holders (or in the case of an occurrence of any event described in clause (iv) of this Section 2(i), to any such Holder) and the Trustee notice thereof (the “Shelf Notice”) and shall as
promptly as possible thereafter (but in no event later than the 30th day following delivery of the Shelf Notice) file an Initial Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to Section 3. 

  
 8 

	3.	Shelf Registration Statement 

 If a Shelf Notice is delivered pursuant to Section 2(i), then this Section 3 shall apply to all Transfer Restricted Securities. Otherwise, upon consummation of the Exchange Offer in accordance
with Section 2, the provisions of Section 3 shall apply solely with respect to (i) Notes held by any Holder thereof not permitted to participate in the Exchange Offer, (ii) Notes held by any broker-dealer that acquired such Notes
directly from the Company or any of its affiliates and (iii) Exchange Notes that are not freely tradeable as contemplated by Section 2(i)(iv) hereof, provided in each case that the relevant Holder has duly notified the Company within six
months of the Exchange Offer as required by Section 2(i)(iv). 
  

	 	(a)	 Initial Shelf Registration Statement. The Company shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to), as promptly as practicable, but in no event later
than the 30th day following delivery of the Shelf Notice,
file with the SEC a Registration Statement for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 covering all of the Transfer Restricted Securities (the “Initial Shelf Registration Statement”). If applicable law or
interpretations of the staff of the SEC would not permit the consummation of the Exchange Offer, the Company shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to) use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Initial Shelf Registration Statement to be declared
effective under the Securities Act on or prior to the Effectiveness Date. Otherwise, the Company shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to) use its best efforts to cause such Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities
Act on or prior to the 180th day after the date on which
the Initial Shelf Registration Statement is required to be filed. The Initial Shelf Registration Statement shall be on Form S-1 or another appropriate form permitting registration of such Transfer Restricted Securities for resale by Holders in the
manner or manners reasonably designated by them (including, without limitation, one or more underwritten offerings). The Company and Guarantors shall not permit any securities other than the Transfer Restricted Securities to be included in any Shelf
Registration Statement. The Company shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to) use its best efforts to keep the Initial Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until the date which is two years from the Closing
Date (subject to extension pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 6(w) (the “Effectiveness Period”), or such shorter period ending when (i) all Transfer Restricted Securities covered by the Initial Shelf Registration
Statement have been sold in the manner set forth and as contemplated in the Initial Shelf Registration Statement, (ii) a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement covering all of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by and not sold under
the Initial Shelf Registration Statement or an earlier Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement has been declared effective under the Securities Act, (iii) all Transfer Restricted Securities can be sold by non-affiliates of the Company pursuant
to Rule 144 without any limitations under Rule 144 or (iv) there cease to be any outstanding Transfer Restricted Securities. 

  
 9 

	 	(b)	Subsequent Shelf Registration Statements. If the Initial Shelf Registration Statement or any Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement (as defined below) ceases to
be effective for any reason at any time during the Effectiveness Period (other than because of the sale of all of the securities registered thereunder), the Company shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to) use its best efforts to obtain the prompt
withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness thereof, and in any event shall within 30 days of such cessation of effectiveness amend such Shelf Registration Statement in a manner to obtain the withdrawal of the order suspending the
effectiveness thereof, or file (and cause each Guarantor to file) an additional “shelf” Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 415 covering all of the Transfer Restricted Securities (a “Subsequent Shelf Registration
Statement”). If a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement is filed, the Company shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to) use its best efforts to cause the Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective as soon as
practicable after such filing and to keep such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective for a period equal to the number of days in the Effectiveness Period less the aggregate number of days during which the Initial Shelf
Registration Statement or any Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement was previously continuously effective. As used herein the term “Shelf Registration Statement” means the Initial Shelf Registration Statement and any Subsequent
Shelf Registration Statements 

  

	 	(c)	Supplements and Amendments. The Company shall promptly supplement and amend any Shelf Registration Statement if required by the rules, regulations or
instructions applicable to the registration form used for such Shelf Registration Statement, if required by the Securities Act, or if reasonably requested in writing by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Transfer
Restricted Securities covered by such Shelf Registration Statement or by any underwriter of such Transfer Restricted Securities. 

  

	 	(d)	Provision of Information. No Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities shall be entitled to include any of its Transfer Restricted Securities in any Shelf
Registration Statement pursuant to this Agreement unless such Holder furnishes to the Company and the Trustee in writing, within 20 days after receipt of a written request therefor, such information as the Company and the Trustee after conferring
with counsel with regard to information relating to Holders that would be required by the SEC to be included in such Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus included therein, may reasonably request for inclusion in any Shelf Registration
Statement or Prospectus included therein, and no such Holder shall be entitled to Additional Interest pursuant to Section 4 hereof unless and until such Holder shall have provided such information. The Company may refuse to name any Holder who
fails to provide such information to the Company within 20 days after receipt by the Holder of a written request therefor. 

  
 10 

	4.	Additional Interest 

  

	 	(a)	The Company and each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities will suffer damages if the Company or any Guarantor fails to
fulfill its material obligations under Section 2 or Section 3 hereof and that it would not be feasible to ascertain the extent of such damages with precision. Accordingly, the Company and the Guarantors agree to pay additional cash
interest on the Notes (“Additional Interest”) under the circumstances and to the extent set forth below (each of which shall be given independent effect): 

 

	 	(i)	 if (A) the Exchange Offer Registration Statement has not been filed on or prior to the Filing Date or (B) in the event the Company and the
Guarantors are obligated to file an Initial Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2(i) and Section 3 above and such Initial Shelf Registration Statement has not been filed on the 90th day (the “Shelf Filing Date”) after the date on
which the obligation to file the Shelf Registration Statement arises, and if such default is not cured within 30 calendar days of the date on which such default occurred, Additional Interest shall accrue on the Notes over and above any stated
interest at a rate of 0.25% per annum of the principal amount of such Notes for the first 90 days immediately following the date on which such default occurred, such Additional Interest rate increasing by an additional 0.25% per annum at
the beginning of each subsequent 90-day period; 

  

	 	(ii)	 if the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is not declared effective on or prior to the Effectiveness Date or, if required to be filed pursuant to
Section 2(i) and Section 3 above, the Initial Shelf Registration Statement is not declared effective on or prior to the Effectiveness Date, or if required to be filed pursuant to Section 2 and Section 3 above, the Shelf
Registration Statement is not declared effective on or prior to the 90th day after the Shelf Filing Date, and if such default is not cured within 30 calendar days of the date on which such default occurred, Additional Interest shall accrue on the Notes over and above any
stated interest at a rate of 0.25% per annum of the principal amount of such Notes for the first 90 days immediately following the Effectiveness Date, such Additional Interest rate increasing by an additional 0.25% per annum at the
beginning of each subsequent 90-day period; 

  

	 	(iii)	 if (A) the Exchange Offer is not consummated on or prior to the 40th Business Day after the Effectiveness Date, (B) the Exchange Offer Registration Statement ceases to be effective
at any time prior to the time that the Exchange Offer is consummated, or (C) if applicable, a Shelf Registration Statement has been declared effective and such Shelf Registration Statement ceases to be effective at any time prior to the second
anniversary of its effective date (other than such time as all Notes have been disposed of thereunder), and if such default is not cured within 

  
 11 

	 	
30 calendar days of the date on which such default occurred, then Additional Interest shall accrue on the Notes, over and above any stated interest, at a rate of 0.25% per annum of the
principal amount of such Notes commencing on (w) the 40th Business Day after the Effectiveness Date, in the case of (A) above, or (x) the date the Exchange Offer Registration Statement ceases to be effective without being declared effective again
within 30 days, in the case of (B) above, or (y) the day such Shelf Registration Statement ceases to be effective in the case of (C) above, such Additional Interest rate increasing by an additional 0.25% per annum at the
beginning of each such subsequent 90-day period; 

 provided, however, that the maximum Additional Interest
rate on the Notes may not exceed at any one time in the aggregate 1.00% per annum; and provided further, that (1) upon the filing of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or Initial Shelf Registration Statement (in the case of
(i) above), (2) upon the effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or Initial Shelf Registration Statement (in the case of (ii) above), (3) upon the exchange of Exchange Notes for all Notes tendered (in the case
of (iii)(A) above), or upon the effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement that had ceased to remain effective (in the case of (iii)(B) above), or upon the effectiveness of a Shelf Registration Statement which had ceased to remain
effective (in the case of (iii)(C) above), Additional Interest on the Notes as a result of such clause (or the relevant subclause thereof) or upon the effectiveness of such Registration Statement or Exchange Offer Registration Statement, as the case
may be, shall cease to accrue. Accrued Additional Interest shall be paid from and including the date on which any of the defaults described in (i) through (iii) above occurred to but excluding the earlier of (i) the date on which
Additional Interest would cease to accrue upon the cessation of the applicable event or events of default described in (1), (2) and/or (3) above or (ii) the date on which all of the Transfer Restricted Securities, other than
certificated notes held by affiliates of the Company, otherwise become freely tradable by all Holders, without further Registration under the Securities Act. The accrual and payment of Additional Interest shall be the sole remedy available to any
Holder upon the occurrence of any event of default described in Section 4(a)(i) through Section 4(a)(iii) herein. 
  

	 	(b)	The Company shall notify the Trustee within five Business Days after each and every date on which an event occurs in respect of which Additional Interest is required to
be paid (an “Event Date”). Any amounts of Additional Interest due pursuant to (a)(i), (a)(ii) or (a)(iii) of this Section 4 will be payable in cash, on the dates and in the manner provided in the Indenture and whether or
not any cash interest would then be payable on such date, commencing with the first such semi-annual date occurring after any such Additional Interest commences to accrue. The amount of Additional Interest will be determined by multiplying the
applicable Additional Interest rate by the principal amount of the Notes, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days such Additional Interest rate was applicable during such period (determined on the basis of a 360-day
year comprised of twelve 30-day months and, in the case of a partial month, the actual number of days elapsed), and the denominator of which is 360. 

  
 12 

	5.	Hold-Back Agreements 

 The Company agrees that it will not effect any public or private sale or distribution (including a sale pursuant to Regulation D under the Securities Act) of any securities the same as or similar to those
covered by a Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2 or 3 hereof (other than Additional Notes (as defined in the Indenture) issued under the Indenture), or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such
securities, during the 10 days prior to, and during the 90-day period beginning on, the effective date of any Registration Statement filed pursuant to Sections 2 and 3 hereof unless the Holders of a majority in the aggregate principal amount of the
Transfer Restricted Securities to be included in such Registration Statement consent. 
  

	6.	Registration Procedures 

 In connection with the filing of any Registration Statement pursuant to Sections 2 or 3 hereof, the Company shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to) effect such registrations to permit the sale of
such securities covered thereby in accordance with the intended method or methods of disposition thereof, and pursuant thereto and in connection with any Registration Statement filed by the Company hereunder, the Company shall (and shall cause each
Guarantor to): 
  

	 	(a)	 Prepare and file with the SEC as soon as practicable after the date hereof but in any event on or prior to the Filing Date, the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement or if the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is not filed because of the circumstances contemplated by Section 2(i), a Shelf Registration Statement as prescribed by Section 3, and use its best efforts to cause
each such Registration Statement to become effective and remain effective as provided herein; provided that, if (1) a Shelf Registration Statement is filed pursuant to Section 3 or (2) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange
Offer Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2 is required to be delivered under the Securities Act by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Notes during the Applicable Period relating thereto, before filing any
Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto the Company shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to), if requested, furnish to and afford the Holders of the Transfer Restricted Securities to be registered pursuant to
such Shelf Registration Statement, each Participating Broker-Dealer, the managing underwriters, if any, and each of their respective counsel, a reasonable opportunity to review copies of all such documents (including copies of any documents to be
incorporated by reference therein and all exhibits thereto) proposed to be filed (in each case at least five Business Days prior to such filing). The Company and each Guarantor shall not file any such Registration Statement or Prospectus or any
amendments or supplements thereto in respect of which the Holders must provide information for the inclusion therein without the Holders being afforded an opportunity to review such documentation if the holders of a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the 

  
 13 

	 	
Transfer Restricted Securities covered by such Registration Statement, or any such Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, the managing underwriters, if any, or any of their respective
counsel shall reasonably object in writing on a timely basis. A Holder shall be deemed to have reasonably objected to such filing if such Registration Statement, amendment, Prospectus or supplement, as applicable, as proposed to be filed, contains
an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or fails to comply with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act. 

 

	 	(b)	Provide an indenture trustee for the Transfer Restricted Securities or the Exchange Notes, as the case may be, and cause the Indenture (or other indenture relating to
the Transfer Restricted Securities) to be qualified under the TIA not later than the effective date of the first Registration Statement; and in connection therewith, to effect such changes to such indenture as may be required for such indenture to
be so qualified in accordance with the terms of the TIA; and execute, and use its best efforts to cause such trustee to execute, all documents as may be required to effect such changes, and all other forms and documents required to be filed with the
SEC to enable such indenture to be so qualified in a timely manner. 

  

	 	(c)	Prepare and file with the SEC such pre-effective amendments and post-effective amendments to each Shelf Registration Statement or Exchange Offer Registration Statement,
as the case may be, as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement continuously effective for the Effectiveness Period or the Applicable Period, as the case may be; cause the related Prospectus to be supplemented by any Prospectus
supplement required by applicable law, and as so supplemented to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 (or any similar provisions then in force) promulgated under the Securities Act; and comply with the provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act
applicable to them with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such Registration Statement as so amended or in such Prospectus as so supplemented and with respect to the subsequent resale of any securities being sold by a
Participating Broker-Dealer covered by any such Prospectus. The Company and each Guarantor shall not, during the Applicable Period, voluntarily take any action that would result in selling Holders of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by a
Registration Statement or Participating Broker-Dealers seeking to sell Exchange Notes not being able to sell such Transfer Restricted Securities or such Exchange Notes during that period, unless such action is required by applicable law, rule or
regulation or permitted by this Agreement. 

  

	 	(d)	 Furnish to such selling Holders and Participating Broker-Dealers who so request in writing (i) upon the Company’s receipt, a copy of the
order of the SEC declaring such Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto effective, (ii) such reasonable number of copies of such Registration Statement and of each amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including
any documents incorporated therein by reference and all exhibits), 

  
 14 

	 	
(iii) such reasonable number of copies of the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each preliminary Prospectus) and each amendment and supplement thereto, and such
reasonable number of copies of the final Prospectus as filed by the Company and each Guarantor pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act and each amendment and supplement thereto, and
(iv) such other documents (including any amendments required to be filed pursuant to clause (c) of this Section), as any such Person may reasonably request in writing. The Company and the Guarantors hereby consent to the use of the
Prospectus by each of the selling Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities or each such Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, and the underwriters or agents, if any, and dealers, if any, in connection with the offering and sale of the
Transfer Restricted Securities covered by, or the sale by Participating Broker-Dealers of the Exchange Notes pursuant to, such Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto. 

 

	 	(e)	 If (1) a Shelf Registration Statement is filed pursuant to Section 3, or (2) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Offer Registration
Statement filed pursuant to Section 2 is required to be delivered under the Securities Act by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Notes during the Applicable Period relating thereto, the Company shall notify in writing
the selling Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities, or each such Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, the managing underwriters, if any, and each of their respective counsel promptly (but in any event within 2 Business Days)
(i) when a Prospectus or any Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and, with respect to a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective (including in such notice a written
statement that any Holder may, upon request, obtain, without charge, one conformed copy of such Registration Statement or post-effective amendment including financial statements and schedules, documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by
reference and exhibits), (ii) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement or of any order preventing or suspending the use of any Prospectus or the initiation of any proceedings for that
purpose, (iii) if at any time when a Prospectus is required by the Securities Act to be delivered in connection with sales of the Transfer Restricted Securities the representations and warranties of the Company and any Guarantor contained in
any agreement (including any underwriting agreement) contemplated by Section 6(n) hereof cease to be true and correct, (iv) of the receipt by the Company or any Guarantor of any notification with respect to the suspension of the
qualification or exemption from qualification of a Registration Statement or any of the Transfer Restricted Securities or the Exchange Notes to be sold by any Participating Broker-Dealer for offer or sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation or
threatening of any proceeding for such purpose, (v) of the happening of any event, the existence of any condition of any information becoming known that makes any statement made in such Registration Statement or related Prospectus or any
document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference 

  
 15 

	 	
untrue in any material respect or that requires the making of any changes in, or amendments or supplements to, such Registration Statement, Prospectus or documents so that, in the case of the
Registration Statement and the Prospectus, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading, (vi) of any reasonable determination by the Company or any Guarantor that a post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement would be appropriate and (vii) of any request by the SEC for amendments
to the Registration Statement or supplements to the Prospectus or for additional information relating thereto. 

  

	 	(f)	Use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement or of any order preventing or suspending the use of a
Prospectus or suspending the qualification (or exemption from qualification) of any of the Transfer Restricted Securities or the Exchange Notes to be sold by any Participating Broker-Dealer, for sale in any jurisdiction, and, if any such order is
issued, to use its best efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any such order at the earliest possible date. 

  

	 	(g)	If (A) a Shelf Registration Statement is filed pursuant to Section 3, (B) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Offer Registration Statement filed
pursuant to Section 2 is required to be delivered under the Securities Act by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Notes during the Applicable Period or (C) reasonably requested in writing by the managing
underwriters, if any, or the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Transfer Restricted Securities being sold in connection with an underwritten offering, (i) promptly incorporate in a Prospectus supplement or post-effective
amendment such information or revisions to information therein relating to such underwriters or selling Holders as the managing underwriters, if any, or such Holders or any of their respective counsel reasonably request in writing to be included or
made therein and (ii) make all required filings of such Prospectus supplement or such post-effective amendment as soon as practicable after the Company has received notification of the matters to be incorporated in such Prospectus supplements
or post-effective amendment. 

  

	 	(h)	 Prior to any public offering of Transfer Restricted Securities or any delivery of a Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement
by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Notes during the Applicable Period, use its best efforts to register or qualify, and to cooperate with the selling Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities or each such Participating
Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, the underwriters, if any, and their respective counsel in connection with the registration or qualification (or exemption from such registration or qualification) of such Transfer Restricted Securities or Exchange
Notes, as the case may be, for offer and sale under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions within the United States as any selling Holder, Participating Broker-Dealer or any managing underwriter or

  
 16 

	 	
underwriters, if any, reasonably request in writing; provided, that where Exchange Notes held by Participating Broker-Dealers or Transfer Restricted Securities are offered other than
through an underwritten offering, the Company and each Guarantor agree to cause its counsel to perform Blue Sky investigations and file any registrations and qualifications required to be filed pursuant to this Section 6(h), keep each such
registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective during the period such Registration Statement is required to be kept effective and do any and all other acts or things reasonably necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in
such jurisdictions of the Exchange Notes held by Participating Broker-Dealers or the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by the applicable Registration Statement; provided that neither the Company nor any Guarantor shall be required to
(A) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified, (B) take any action that would subject it to general service of process in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject or
(C) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject. 

  

	 	(i)	If (A) a Shelf Registration Statement is filed pursuant to Section 3 or (B) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Offer Registration Statement filed
pursuant to Section 2 is requested to be delivered under the Securities Act by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Notes during the Applicable Period, cooperate with the selling Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities
and the managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Transfer Restricted Securities to be sold, which certificates shall not bear any restrictive legends and shall be in
a form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company, and enable such Transfer Restricted Securities to be in such denominations and registered in such names as the managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, or Holders may reasonably
request. 

  

	 	(j)	Use its best efforts to cause the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by any Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such governmental agencies
or authorities as may be necessary to enable the seller or sellers thereof or the underwriter, if any, to consummate the disposition of such Transfer Restricted Securities, except as may be required solely as a consequence of the nature of such
selling Holder’s business, in which case the Company shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to) cooperate in all reasonable respects with the filing of such Registration Statement and the granting of such approvals; provided that neither
the Company nor any existing Guarantor shall be required to (A) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified, (B) take any action that would subject it to general service of process in any
jurisdiction where it is not then so subject or (C) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject. 

  
 17 

	 	(k)	If (1) a Shelf Registration Statement is filed pursuant to Section 3, or (2) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Offer Registration Statement filed
pursuant to Section 2 is required to be delivered under the Securities Act by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Notes during the Applicable Period, upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by paragraph 6(e)(v) or
6(e)(vi) hereof, as promptly as practicable, prepare and file with the SEC, at the expense of the Company and the Guarantors, a supplement or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or a supplement to the related Prospectus or any
document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of the Transfer Restricted Securities being sold thereunder or to the purchasers of the
Exchange Notes to whom such Prospectus will be delivered by a Participating Broker-Dealer, such Prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and, if SEC review is required, use its best efforts to cause such post-effective amendment to be declared effective as soon as possible.

  

	 	(l)	Use its best efforts to cause the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by a Registration Statement to be rated with such appropriate rating agencies, if so requested
in writing by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by such Registration Statement or the managing underwriter or underwriters, if any. 

 

	 	(m)	Prior to the initial issuance of the Exchange Notes, (i) provide the Trustee with one or more certificates for the Transfer Restricted Securities in a form
eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company and (ii) provide a CUSIP number for the Exchange Notes. 

  

	 	(n)	 If a Shelf Registration Statement is filed pursuant to Section 3, enter into such agreements (including an underwriting agreement in form, scope
and substance as is customary in underwritten offerings of debt securities similar to the Notes, as may be appropriate in the circumstances) and take all such other actions in connection therewith (including those reasonably requested in writing by
the managing underwriters, if any, or the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Transfer Restricted Securities being sold) in order to expedite or facilitate the registration or the disposition of such Transfer Restricted
Securities, and in such connection, whether or not an underwriting agreement is entered into and whether or not the registration is an Underwritten Registration, (i) make such representations and warranties to the Holders and the underwriters,
if any, with respect to the business of the Company and its subsidiaries as then conducted, and the Registration Statement, Prospectus and documents, if any, incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein, in each case, in form,
substance and scope as are customarily made by issuers to underwriters in underwritten offerings of debt securities similar to the Notes, as may be appropriate in the circumstances, and confirm the same if and when reasonably required;
(ii) obtain an opinion of counsel to the Company and the Guarantors and updates thereof (which counsel and opinions (in form, scope and substance) shall be reasonably satisfactory to the managing underwriters, if

  
 18 

	 	
any, and the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Transfer Restricted Securities being sold), addressed to each selling Holder and each of the underwriters, if any, covering
the matters customarily covered in opinions of counsel to the Company and the Guarantors requested in underwritten offerings of debt securities similar to the Notes, as may be appropriate in the circumstances; (iii) obtain “cold
comfort” letters and updates thereof (which letters and updates (in form, scope and substance) shall be reasonably satisfactory to the managing underwriters) from the independent certified public accountants of the Company and the Guarantors
(and, if necessary, any other independent certified public accountants of any subsidiary of the Company or of any business acquired by the Company for which financial statements and financial data are, or are required to be, included in the
Registration Statement), addressed to each of the underwriters, such letters to be in customary form and covering matters of the type customarily covered in “cold comfort” letters in connection with underwritten offerings of debt
securities similar to the Notes, as may be appropriate in the circumstances, and such other matters as reasonably requested in writing by the underwriters; and (iv) deliver such documents and certificates as may be reasonably requested in
writing by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Transfer Restricted Securities being sold and the managing underwriters, if any, to evidence the continued validity of the representations and warranties of the Company and
its subsidiaries made pursuant to clause (i) above and to evidence compliance with any conditions contained in the underwriting agreement or other similar agreement entered into by the Company or any Guarantor. 

 

	 	(o)	 If (1) a Shelf Registration Statement is filed pursuant to Section 3, or (2) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Offer Registration
Statement filed pursuant to Section 2 is required to be delivered under the Securities Act by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Notes during the Applicable Period, make available for inspection by any selling Holder of
such Transfer Restricted Securities being sold, or each such Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, any underwriter participating in any such disposition of Transfer Restricted Securities, if any, and any attorney, accountant or other
agent retained by any such selling Holder or each such Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, or underwriter (collectively, the “Inspectors”), at the offices where normally kept, during reasonable business hours, all
financial and other records and pertinent corporate documents of the Company and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Records”) as shall be reasonably necessary to enable them to exercise any applicable due diligence
responsibilities, and cause the officers, directors and employees of the Company and its subsidiaries to supply all information reasonably requested in writing by any such Inspector in connection with such Registration Statement. Each Inspector
shall agree in writing that it will keep the Records confidential and not disclose any of the Records unless (i) the disclosure of such Records is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in such Registration Statement,
(ii) the release of such Records is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other order from a court of competent jurisdiction, (iii) the information in such Records is public or

  
 19 

	 	
has been made generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure or failure to safeguard by such Inspector or (iv) disclosure of such information is, in the reasonable
written opinion of counsel for any Inspector, necessary or advisable in connection with any action, claim, suit or proceeding, directly or indirectly, involving or potentially involving such Inspector and arising out of, based upon, related to, or
involving this Agreement, or any transaction contemplated hereby or arising hereunder. Each selling Holder of such Transfer Restricted Securities and each such Participating Broker-Dealer will be required to agree that information obtained by it as
a result of such inspections shall be deemed confidential and shall not be used by it as the basis for any market transactions in the securities of the Company unless and until such is made generally available to the public. Each Inspector, each
selling Holder of such Transfer Restricted Securities and each such Participating Broker-Dealer will be required to further agree that it will, upon learning that disclosure of such Records is sought in a court of competent jurisdiction, give notice
to the Company and, to the extent practicable, use its best efforts to allow the Company, at its expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of the Records deemed confidential at its expense. 

 

	 	(p)	Comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and make generally available to the security holders of the Company with regard to any Applicable
Registration Statement earning statements satisfying the provisions of section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder (or any similar rule promulgated under the Securities Act) no later than 45 days after the end of any 12-month period
(or 90 days after the end of any 12-month period if such period is a fiscal year) (i) commencing at the end of any fiscal quarter in which Transfer Restricted Securities are sold to underwriters in a firm commitment or best efforts underwritten
offering and (ii) if not sold to underwriters in such an offering, commencing on the first day of the first fiscal quarter of the Company after the effective date of a Registration Statement, which statements shall cover said 12-month periods.

  

	 	(q)	Upon consummation of an Exchange Offer, obtain an opinion of counsel to the Company and the Guarantors (in form, scope and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Initial Purchaser), addressed to the Trustee for the benefit of all Holders participating in the Exchange Offer, to the effect that (i) the Company and the Guarantors have duly authorized, executed and delivered the Exchange Notes, and the
Indenture and (ii) the Exchange Notes, and the Indenture constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company and the Guarantors, enforceable against the Company and the Guarantors in accordance with their respective terms, except as
such enforcement may be subject to customary United States and foreign exceptions. 

  

	 	(r)	 If the Exchange Offer is to be consummated, upon delivery of the Transfer Restricted Securities by the Holders to the Company and the Guarantors (or to
such other Person as directed by the Company and the Guarantors) in exchange for the Exchange Notes, the Company and the Guarantors shall mark, or caused 

  
 20 

	 	
to be marked, on such Transfer Restricted Securities that the Exchange Notes, are being issued as substitute evidence of the indebtedness originally evidenced by the Transfer Restricted
Securities; provided that in no event shall such Transfer Restricted Securities be marked as paid or otherwise satisfied. 

  

	 	(s)	Cooperate with each seller of Transfer Restricted Securities covered by any Registration Statement and each underwriter, if any, participating in the disposition of
such Transfer Restricted Securities and their respective counsel in connection with any filings required to be made with FINRA. 

  

	 	(t)	Use its best efforts to cause all Securities covered by a Registration Statement to be listed on each securities exchange, if any, on which similar debt securities
issued by the Company are then listed. 

  

	 	(u)	Use its best efforts to take all other steps reasonably necessary to effect the registration of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by a Registration Statement
contemplated hereby. 

  

	 	(v)	The Company may require each seller of Transfer Restricted Securities or Participating Broker-Dealer as to which any registration is being effected to furnish to the
Company such information regarding such seller or Participating Broker-Dealer and the distribution of such Transfer Restricted Securities as the Company may, from time to time, reasonably request in writing. The Company may exclude from such
registration the Transfer Restricted Securities of any seller who fails to furnish such information within a reasonable time (which time in no event shall exceed 45 days, subject to Section 3(d)) after receiving such request. Each seller of
Transfer Restricted Securities or Participating Broker-Dealer as to which any registration is being effected agrees to furnish promptly to the Company all information required to be disclosed in order to make the information previously furnished by
such seller not materially misleading. 

  

	 	(w)	 Each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities and each Participating Broker-Dealer agrees by acquisition of such Transfer Restricted Securities or
Exchange Notes to be sold by such Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 6(e)(ii), 6(e)(iv), 6(e)(v), or 6(e)(vi), such
Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of such Transfer Restricted Securities covered by a Registration Statement and such Participating Broker-Dealer will forthwith discontinue disposition of such Exchange Notes pursuant to any Prospectus
and, in each case, forthwith discontinue dissemination of such Prospectus until such Holder’s or Participating Broker-Dealer’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 6(k), or until it
is advised in writing (the “Advice”) by the Company and the Guarantors that the use of the applicable Prospectus may be resumed, and has received copies of any amendments or supplements thereto and, if so directed by the Company and
the Guarantors, such Holder or Participating Broker-

  
 21 

	 	
Dealer, as the case may be, will deliver to the Company all copies, other than permanent file copies, then in such Holder’s or Participating Broker-Dealer’s possession, of the
Prospectus covering such Transfer Restricted Securities current at the time of the receipt of such notice. In the event the Company and the Guarantors shall give any such notice, the Applicable Period shall be extended by the number of days during
such periods from and including the date of the giving of such notice to and including the date when each Participating Broker-Dealer shall have received (x) the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 6(k)
or (y) the Advice. 

  

	7.	Registration Expenses 

  

	 	(a)	 All fees and expenses incident to the performance of or compliance with this Agreement by the Company and the Guarantors shall be borne by the Company
and the Guarantors, whether or not the Exchange Offer or a Shelf Registration Statement is filed or becomes effective, including, without limitation, (i) all registration and filing fees, including, without limitation, (A) fees with

(iii) messenger, telephone and delivery expenses incurred in connection with the performance of their obligations hereunder, (iv) fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, the Guarantors, (v) fees and disbursements of all

Schedule E to the By-laws of FINRA, but only where the need for such a “qualified independent underwriter” arises due to a relationship with the Company and the Guarantors, (x) internal expenses of the Company and the

  
 22 

	 	
Guarantors (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of officers and employees of the Company or the Guarantors performing legal or accounting duties), (xi) the expense of
any annual audit, (xii) the fees and expenses of the Trustee and the Exchange Agent and (xiii) the expenses relating to printing, word processing and distributing all Registration Statements, underwriting agreements, securities sales

exchange for the Notes; provided that the Company shall not be required to pay taxes payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance or delivery of any Exchange Notes in a name other than that of the Holder of the Note in respect
of which such Exchange Note is being issued. The Company and the Guarantors shall reimburse the Holders for fees and expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Holders) relating to any enforcement of any rights of the Holders
under this Agreement. 

  

	8.	Indemnification 

  

	 	(a)	Indemnification by the Company and the Guarantors. The Company and the Guarantors jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder of
Transfer Restricted Securities, Exchange Notes and each Participating Broker-Dealer selling Exchange Notes during the Applicable Period, each Person, if any, who controls each such Holder (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act
or Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act) and the officers, directors and partners of each such Holder, Participating Broker-Dealer and controlling person, to the fullest extent lawful, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages,
liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, reasonable costs of preparation and reasonable attorneys’ fees as provided in this Section 8) and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable costs and expenses incurred in
connection with investigating, preparing, pursuing or defending against any of the foregoing) (collectively, “Losses”), as incurred, directly or indirectly caused by, related to, based upon, arising out of or in connection with any
untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or form of prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto, or in any preliminary prospectus, or any omission or alleged omission to
state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except insofar as such Losses are solely based upon information
relating to such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer and furnished in writing to the Company and the Guarantors by such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer or their counsel expressly for use therein. The Company and the Guarantors also agree to
indemnify underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers and similar securities industry professionals participating in the distribution, their officers, directors, agents and employees and each Person who controls such Persons (within the meaning
of Section 5 of the Securities Act or Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act) to the same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the Holders or the Participating Broker-Dealer. 

  
 23 

	 	(b)	Indemnification by Holder. In connection with any Registration Statement, Prospectus or form of prospectus, any amendment or supplement thereto, or any
preliminary prospectus in which a Holder is participating, such Holder shall furnish to the Company and the Guarantors in writing such information as the Company and the Guarantors reasonably request for use in connection with any Registration
Statement, Prospectus or form of prospectus, any amendment or supplement thereto, or any preliminary prospectus and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the Guarantors, their respective directors and each Person, if any, who controls the
Company and the Guarantors (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers and partners of such controlling persons, to the fullest extent lawful, from and against
all Losses arising out of or based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or form of prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus,
or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading to the extent, but only to
the extent, that such losses are finally judicially determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, unappealable order to have resulted solely from an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged
omission of a material fact contained in or omitted from any information so furnished in writing by such Holder to the Company and the Guarantors expressly for use therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the liability of any
selling Holder be greater in amount than such Holder’s Maximum Contribution Amount (as defined below). 

  

	 	(c)	Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. If any proceeding shall be brought or asserted against any Person entitled to indemnity hereunder (an
“Indemnified Party”), such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the party or parties from which such indemnity is sought (the “Indemnifying Party” or “Indemnifying Parties”, as applicable) in
writing; but the omission to so notify the Indemnifying Party (i) will not relieve such Indemnifying Party from any liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and only to the extent it is materially prejudiced as a result
thereof and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligations to any Indemnified Party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraphs (a) and (b) above. 

The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, exercisable by giving written notice to an Indemnified Party, within 20 Business Days after
receipt of written notice from such Indemnified Party of such proceeding, to assume, at its expense, the defense of any such proceeding; provided, that an Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such
proceeding 

  
 24 

 
and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party or parties unless: (1) the Indemnifying Party has
agreed to pay such fees and expenses; or (2) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to assume the defense of such proceeding or shall have failed to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party; or (3) the
named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party or any of its affiliates or controlling persons, and such Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that
there may be one or more defenses available to such Indemnified Party that are in addition to, or in conflict with, those defenses available to the Indemnifying Party or such affiliate or controlling person (in which case, if such Indemnified Party
notifies the Indemnifying Parties in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Parties, the Indemnifying Parties shall not have the right to assume the defense and the reasonable fees and expenses of such
counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party; it being understood, however, that, the Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any one such proceeding or separate but substantially similar or related proceedings in the same
jurisdiction, arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (together with appropriate local counsel) at any time for such Indemnified Party).

 No Indemnifying Party shall be liable for any settlement of any such proceeding effected without its written consent, which
shall not be unreasonably withheld, but if settled with its written consent, or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such proceeding, each Indemnifying Party jointly and severally agrees, subject to the exceptions and limitations
set forth above, to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Party from and against any and all Losses by reason of such settlement or judgment. The Indemnifying Party shall not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement
unless such judgment or settlement (i) includes as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to each Indemnified Party of a release, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, from all
liability in respect of such proceeding for which such Indemnified Party would be entitled to indemnification hereunder (whether or not any Indemnified Party is a party thereto) and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of
fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party. 
  

	 	(d)	 Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 is unavailable to an Indemnified Party or is insufficient to hold such
Indemnified Party harmless for any Losses in respect of which this Section 8 would otherwise apply by its terms (other than by reason of exceptions provided in this Section 8), then each applicable Indemnifying Party, in lieu of
indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall have a joint and several obligation to contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of
the 

  
 25 

 
Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and of such Indemnified Party, on the other hand, in connection with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well as any other
relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and of such Indemnified Party, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and
opportunity to correct or prevent any such statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of any Losses shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with
any proceeding, to the extent such party would have been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the indemnification provided for in Section 8(a) or 8(b) was available to such party. 

The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8(d) were determined by
pro rata allocation or by other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8(d), a selling Holder shall not
be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of such Holder’s Maximum Contribution Amount. A selling Holder’s “Maximum Contribution Amount” shall equal the excess of (i) the aggregate proceeds
received by such Holder pursuant to the sale of such Transfer Restricted Securities or Exchange Notes over (ii) the aggregate amount of damages that such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation. The Holders’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 8(d) are several in proportion to the respective principal amount of the Registrable Securities held by each Holder hereunder and not joint. The
Company’s and Guarantors’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 8(d) are joint and several. 
 The
indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section 8 are in addition to any liability that the Indemnifying Parties may have to the Indemnified Parties. 

 

	9.	Rules 144 and 144A 

  

	 	(a)	 The Company covenants that it shall (a) file the reports required to be filed by it (if so required) under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act
in a timely manner and, if at any time the Company is not required to file such reports, it will, upon the written request of any Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities, make publicly available other information necessary to permit sales pursuant
to Rule 144 and 144A and (b) take such further action as any Holder may reasonably request in 

  
 26 

	 	
writing, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Transfer Restricted Securities without registration under the Securities Act pursuant to the exemptions
provided by Rule 144 and Rule 144A. Upon the request of any Holder, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such information and requirements. 

 

	 	(b)	Availability of Rule 144 Not Excuse for Obligations under Section 2. The fact that holders of Transfer Restricted Securities may become eligible to sell
such Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to Rule 144 shall not (1) cause such Notes to cease to be Transfer Restricted Securities or (2) excuse the Company’s and the Guarantors’ obligations set forth in Section 2 of this
Agreement, including without limitation the obligations in respect of an Exchange Offer and Additional Interest. 

  

	10.	Underwritten Registrations of Transfer Restricted Securities 

 If any of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by any Shelf Registration Statement are to be sold in an underwritten offering, the investment banker or investment bankers and manager or managers
that will manage the offering will be selected by the Company; provided, however, that such investment banker or investment bankers and manager or managers must be reasonably acceptable to the Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of such Transfer Restricted Securities included in such offering. 
 No Holder of Transfer Restricted
Securities may participate in any underwritten registration hereunder unless such Holder (a) agrees to sell such Holder’s Transfer Restricted Securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Persons
entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (b) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

  

	11.	Miscellaneous 

  

	 	(a)	Remedies. In the event of a breach by either the Company or any of the Guarantors of any of their respective obligations under this Agreement, each Holder, in
addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein, in the Indenture or, in the case of the Initial Purchaser, in the Purchase Agreement, or granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of
its rights under this Agreement. The Company and the Guarantors agree that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by either the Company or any of the Guarantors of any of the provisions of
this Agreement and hereby further agree that, in the event of any action for specific performance in respect of such breach, the Company shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to) waive the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

  
 27 

	 	(b)	No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company and each of the Guarantors have not entered, as of the date hereof, and the Company and each of the Guarantors shall not
enter, after the date of this Agreement, into any agreement with respect to any of its securities that is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders of Securities in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof. The
Company and each of the Guarantors have not entered and will not enter into any agreement with respect to any of its securities that will grant to any Person piggy-back rights with respect to a Registration Statement. 

 

	 	(c)	Adjustments Affecting Transfer Restricted Securities. The Company shall not, directly or indirectly, take any action with respect to the Transfer Restricted
Securities as a class that would adversely affect the ability of the Holders to include such Transfer Restricted Securities in a registration undertaken pursuant to this Agreement. 

 

	 	(d)	Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions
hereof may not be given, otherwise than with the prior written consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Transfer Restricted Securities in circumstances that would adversely affect any
Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities; provided, however, that Section 8 and this Section 11(d) may not be amended, modified or supplemented without the prior written consent of each Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
a waiver or consent to depart from the provisions hereof with respect to a matter that relates exclusively to the rights of Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities whose securities are being tendered pursuant to the Exchange Offer or sold pursuant
to a Notes Registration Statement and that does not directly or indirectly affect, impair, limit or compromise the rights of other Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities may be given by Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount
of the Transfer Restricted Securities being tendered or being sold by such Holders pursuant to such Notes Registration Statement. 

  

	 	(e)	Notices. All notices and other communications provided for or permitted hereunder shall be made in writing by hand delivery, registered first-class mail,
next-day air courier or telecopier:

 The first paragraph of this covenant will not prohibit the incurrence of any of

(2) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of the Existing Indebtedness;

via telecopy or other form of electronic transmission. 
 Section 3.06. In case any one or more of the provisions in this
Second Supplemental Indenture or in the Notes shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, in any respect for any reason, the validity, legality and enforceability of any such provision in every other respect and of the remaining provisions
shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, it being intended that all of the provisions hereof shall be enforceable to the full extent permitted by law. 
 Section 3.07. The Trustee accepts the amendments of the Indenture effected by this Second Supplemental Indenture and agrees to execute the trust created by the Indenture as hereby amended, but on the
terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture, including the terms and provisions defining and limiting the liabilities and responsibilities of the Trustee, which terms and provisions shall in like manner define and limit its liabilities and
responsibilities in the performance of the trust created by the Indenture as hereby amended, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Trustee shall not be responsible in any manner whatsoever for or with respect to any of the
recitals or statements contained herein, all of which recitals or statements are made solely by the Company and the Guarantors, and the Trustee makes no representation with respect to any such matters. Additionally, the Trustee makes no
