 8.875% Senior Secured Notes Due 2018 

1. Interest 
 Hexion U.S.
Finance Corp. and Hexion Nova Scotia Finance, ULC (such Persons, and their respective successors and assigns under the Indenture hereinafter referred to, being herein called the “Issuers”), jointly and severally, promise to pay interest on
the principal amount of this Note at a rate per annum of 8.875%; provided, however, that if a Registration Default (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) occurs, additional interest will accrue on this Note at a rate of
0.25% per annum (increasing by an additional 0.25% per annum after each consecutive 90-day period that occurs after the date on which such Registration Default occurs up to a maximum additional interest rate of 1.00%) from and including
the date on which any such Registration Default shall occur to but excluding the earlier of (x) the date on which all Registration Defaults have been cured and (y) the date which is two years from January 14, 2013. The Issuers will
pay interest semiannually in arrears to the holders of record of the Notes on February 1 and August 1 of each year, commencing February 1, 2013. Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been
paid or, if no interest has been paid, from August 1, 2012. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. The Issuers will pay interest on overdue principal at the rate borne by this Note plus 1.0% per
annum, and it will pay interest on overdue installments of interest at the same rate to the extent lawful. 
 2. Method of Payment

 The Issuers will pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered holders of Notes at
the close of business on the January 15 or July 15 next preceding the interest payment date even if Notes are canceled after the record date and on or before the interest payment date. Holders must surrender Notes to a Paying Agent to
collect principal payments. The Issuers will pay principal and interest in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. Payments in respect of the Notes represented by a Global Note
(including principal, premium and interest) will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Depository. The Issuers will make all payments in respect of a certificated Note (including principal, premium
and interest) by mailing a check to the registered address of each Holder thereof; provided, however, that payments on a certificated Note will be made by wire transfer to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the payee with a bank in
the United States if such Holder elects payment by wire transfer by giving written notice to the Trustee or the Paying Agent to such effect designating such account no later than 30 days immediately preceding the relevant due date for payment
(or such other date as the Trustee may accept in its discretion). 
 3. Paying Agent and Registrar 

Initially, Wilmington Trust, National Association (as successor by merger to Wilmington Trust FSB) (the “Trustee”), will act as
Paying Agent and Registrar. The Issuers may appoint and change any Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar without notice. Holdings or any of its domestically incorporated Wholly Owned Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar.

 4. Indenture 
 The Issuers issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of January 29, 2010 (as supplemented to the date hereof, the “Indenture”), among Hexion Finance Escrow LLC and Hexion Escrow
Corporation and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S.C. §§ 77aaa-77bbbb) (the “Act”).
Terms defined in the Indenture and not defined herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Noteholders are referred to the Indenture and the Act for a statement of those terms. 

The Notes consist of: $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 8.875% Senior Secured Notes Due 2018 issued on January 29, 2010,
$200,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 8.875% Senior Secured Notes Due 2018 issued on January 14, 2013 as Additional Notes under the Indenture and represented by this Note and any other Additional Notes that may be issued after the Issue
Date. The Indenture contains covenants that, among other things, limit the ability of Holdings and its Restricted Subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness; pay dividends or distributions on, or redeem or repurchase capital stock; make
investments; engage in transactions with affiliates; create liens on assets to secure indebtedness; transfer or sell assets; guarantee indebtedness; restrict dividends or other payments of subsidiaries; consolidate, merge or transfer all or
substantially all of its assets; and engage in sale/leaseback transactions. These covenants are subject to important exceptions and qualifications contained in the Indenture. 
 5. Optional Redemption 
 Except as set forth below, the Issuers shall not be
entitled to redeem the Notes. 
 On and after February 1, 2014, the Issuers shall be entitled at their option on one or
more occasions to redeem all or a portion of the Notes upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at the redemption prices (expressed in percentages of principal amount on the redemption date), plus accrued and unpaid
interest and additional interest, if any, to the redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date), if redeemed during the 12-month period commencing
on February 1st of the years set forth below:

option, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice mailed by first-class mail to each Holder’s registered address, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal

Issuers shall be entitled at their option on one or more occasions to redeem upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, Notes (which includes Additional Notes) in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed 35% of the original
aggregate principal amount of the Notes (which includes Additional Notes) originally issued at a redemption price of 108.875% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date (subject to the right of Holders

principal amount of Notes (which includes Additional Notes) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of each such redemption; and (2) each such redemption occurs within 90 days after the consummation of the related Equity
Offering. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuers may at any time and from time to time purchase Notes in the open market
or otherwise. 
 Notice of any redemption upon any Equity Offering may be given prior to the completion thereof, and any such
redemption or notice may, at Holding’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of the related Equity Offering. 
 Redemption for Changes in Withholding Taxes. 
 The Issuers may redeem all
the Notes at their option, at any time as a whole but not in part, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest (if any) to the date of redemption (subject
to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date), in the event the Issuers have become or would become obligated to pay, on the next date on which any amount would be
payable with respect to such Notes, any Additional Amounts with respect to the Notes as a result of: 
 (1) a
change in or an amendment to the laws (including any regulations promulgated thereunder) of Canada (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein); or 

(2) any change in or amendment to any official position regarding the application or interpretation of such laws or
regulations, 
 which change or amendment is announced or becomes effective on or after the Issue Date and the Issuers cannot avoid such
obligation by taking reasonable measures available to the Issuers. 

 Prior to publishing or mailing notice of redemption of any Notes as described above, the
Issuers shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate to the effect that the Issuers cannot avoid their obligation to pay Additional Amounts with respect to such Notes by taking reasonable measures available to the Issuers. The Issuers
shall also deliver an opinion of independent legal counsel of recognized standing stating that the Issuers would be obligated to pay Additional Amounts with respect to the Notes as a result of a change in tax laws or regulations or the application
or interpretation of such laws or regulations. 
 6. Notice of Redemption 

Notice of redemption will be mailed by first-class mail at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each
Holder of Notes to be redeemed at his registered address. Notes in denominations larger than $1,000 principal amount may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000. If money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued
interest on all Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed on the redemption date is deposited with the Paying Agent on or before the redemption date and certain other conditions are satisfied, on and after such date interest ceases to accrue on the
Notes (or such portions thereof) called for redemption. 
 7. Put Provisions 

The occurrence of any Change of Control will constitute an Event of Default under the Indenture unless the Issuers (i)(A) make an offer
within 30 days following such Change of Control to all holders of the Notes to purchase all the Notes properly tendered (a “Change of Control Offer”) at a purchase price (the “Change of Control Purchase Price”) equal to 101% of
the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest (if any) to the date of repurchase (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date); and
(B) purchase all the Notes properly tendered in accordance with the Change of Control Offer or (ii) exercise their right, within 30 days following such Change of Control, to redeem all the Notes as described under Paragraph 5 of this Note.

 8. Guarantee 

The payment by the Issuers of the principal of, and premium and interest on, the Notes is fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint
and several basis by each of the Guarantors to the extent set forth in the Indenture. 
 9. Security 

The Notes will be secured by the Collateral on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Indenture and the Security
Documents, such security interest to be secured by a lien in the Collateral that is junior in priority to liens securing First-Priority Lien Obligations. The Trustee and the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, hold the Collateral in trust for the
benefit of the Trustee and the Holders, in each case pursuant to the Security Documents, the New Intercreditor Agreement and the Existing Intercreditor Agreement. Each Holder, by accepting this Note, consents and agrees to the terms of the Security
Documents (including the provisions providing for the foreclosure and release of Collateral), the New Intercreditor Agreement and the Existing Intercreditor Agreement as the same may be in effect or may be amended from time to

 
time in accordance with their terms and the Indenture and authorizes and directs the Collateral Agent to enter into the Security Documents, the New Intercreditor Agreement and the Existing
Intercreditor Agreement and to perform its obligations and exercise its rights thereunder in accordance therewith. 
 10. Denominations;
Transfer; Exchange 
 The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 principal amount and
integral whole multiples of $1,000, provided that Notes may be issued in denominations of less than $1,000 solely to accommodate book-entry positions that have been created by DTC in denominations of less than $1,000. A Holder may transfer or
exchange Notes in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements or transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The
Registrar need not register the transfer of or exchange any Notes selected for redemption (except, in the case of a Note to be redeemed in part, the portion of the Note not to be redeemed) or any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection
of Notes to be redeemed or 15 days before an interest payment date. 
 11. Persons Deemed Owners 

The registered Holder of this Note may be treated as the owner of it for all purposes. 

12. Unclaimed Money 
 If
money for the payment of principal or interest remains unclaimed for two years, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall pay the money back to the Issuers at their request unless an abandoned property law designates another Person. After any such payment,
Holders entitled to the money must look only to the Issuers and not to the Trustee for payment. 
 13. Discharge and Defeasance

 Subject to certain conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Issuers at any time shall be entitled to terminate some or all
of their and the Guarantors’ obligations under the Notes and the Indenture if the Issuers deposit with the Trustee money or, in certain cases, U.S. Government Obligations for the payment of principal and interest on the Notes to redemption or
maturity, as the case may be. 
 14. Amendment, Waiver 
 Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, (a) the Indenture, the Security Documents, the New Intercreditor Agreement, the Existing Intercreditor Agreement and the Notes may be amended
with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount outstanding of the Notes voting as a single class (which consents may be obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for the Notes) and (b) any
default or noncompliance with any provision may be waived with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount outstanding of the Notes voting as a single class (which consents may be obtained in connection with a tender offer
or exchange offer for the Notes). Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, without the consent of any Noteholder, the Issuers, 

 
the Guarantors and the Trustee shall be entitled to amend the Indenture, the Security Documents, the New Intercreditor Agreement, the Existing Intercreditor Agreement or the Notes to cure any
ambiguity, omission, defect, mistake or inconsistency, or to comply with Article 5 of the Indenture, or to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes, or to add guarantees with respect to the Notes,
including Guarantees, or to secure the Notes, or to add additional assets as Collateral, or to release Collateral when permitted or required under the Indenture or the Security Documents, or to add additional covenants or surrender rights and powers
conferred on the Issuers or the Guarantors, or to comply with any requirement of the SEC in connection with qualifying the Indenture under the Act, to make certain changes to the Indenture to provide for the issuance of Additional Notes or to make
any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Noteholder, to conform the text of the Indenture, the Notes, the Security Documents, the New Intercreditor Agreement or the Existing Intercreditor Agreement, to any provision of the
“Description of Notes” in the Offering Circular to the extent that such provision in the “Description of Notes” was intended by the Issuers to be a verbatim recitation of a provision of the Indenture, the Notes, the Security
Documents, the New Intercreditor Agreement or the Existing Intercreditor Agreement, or to make amendments to provisions of the Indenture relating to the transfer and legending of the Notes. 
 15. Defaults and Remedies 
 Under the Indenture, Events of Default include
(a) default for 30 days in payment of interest on the Notes; (b) default in payment of principal on the Notes at maturity, upon redemption pursuant to Paragraph 5 of the Notes, upon acceleration or otherwise, or the failure by
the Issuers to redeem or purchase Notes when required; (c) failure by the Issuers or certain Subsidiaries to comply with other agreements in the Indenture or the Notes, in certain cases subject to notice and lapse of time; (d) certain
accelerations (including failure to pay within any grace period after final maturity) of other Indebtedness of the Issuers if the amount accelerated (or so unpaid) exceeds $20.0 million; (e) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with
respect to the Issuers, the Guarantors and the Significant Subsidiaries; (f) certain judgments or decrees for the payment of money in excess of $20.0 million; (g) certain defaults with respect to Guarantees; and (h) certain
defaults relating to the Collateral under the Security Documents. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Notes (or, in certain cases of a series of Notes) may declare
all such Notes to be due and payable immediately, subject to certain conditions set forth in the Indenture. Certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency are Events of Default which will result in the Notes being due and payable immediately upon the
occurrence of such Events of Default. 
 Noteholders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the
Indenture. The Trustee may refuse to enforce the Indenture or the Notes unless it receives indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes may direct the
Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Noteholders notice of any continuing Default (except a Default in payment of principal or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in the interest of the
Holders. 

 16. Trustee Dealings with the Issuers

Senior Secured Notes Due 2018 
 REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT 

January 14, 2013 

CREDIT SUISSE SECURITIES (USA) LLC 
 Eleven Madison Avenue 
 New York, New York 10010 

Dear Sirs: 
 Momentive Specialty
Chemicals Inc. (the “Company”) proposes to deliver to Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC (“Credit Suisse”), as the designated affiliate of Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch, upon the terms set forth in an
exchange agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”), dated January 14, 2013, among Hexion U.S. Finance Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Hexion U.S.”), Hexion Nova Scotia Finance, ULC, a Nova Scotia unlimited liability
company (“Hexion Nova Scotia”) (each of Hexion U.S. and Hexion Nova Scotia is an “Issuer,” and, together, they are the “Issuers”), Momentive Specialty Chemicals Holdings LLC
(“Holdings”), the Company, each of the Company’s subsidiaries listed on the signature pages thereto (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”) and Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch, U.S. $200,000,000 principal amount
of the Issuers’ 8.875% Senior Secured Notes Due 2018 (the “Initial Securities”). The Initial Securities will be issued as “additional notes” pursuant to an indenture (the “Indenture”), dated as of
January 29, 2010, among Hexion Finance Escrow LLC, Hexion Escrow Corporation and Wilmington Trust FSB, as trustee (the “Trustee”) (as supplemented on the date hereof). The Initial Securities will be unconditionally guaranteed
(“the Guarantees”) on a senior secured basis by the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors (together with the Company, the “Guarantors”). 
 As an inducement to Credit Suisse to enter into the Exchange Agreement, the Issuers agree with Credit Suisse, for the benefit of Credit Suisse and future purchasers of the Securities (as defined below)
from Credit Suisse (collectively the “Holders”), as follows: 
 1. Registered Exchange Offer. In
connection with each permitted sale by Credit Suisse of Initial Securities to third parties pursuant to Section 6.1 of the Exchange Agreement, subject to certain restrictions discussed herein and unless not permitted by applicable law, the
Issuers shall prepare and use their commercially reasonable efforts to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a registration statement (the “Exchange Offer Registration Statement”) on an
appropriate form under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), with respect to a proposed offer (the “Registered Exchange Offer”) to the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities (as defined
in Section 6 hereof), who are not prohibited by any law or policy of the Commission from participating in a Registered Exchange Offer, to issue and deliver to such Holders, in exchange for the Initial Securities, a like aggregate principal
amount of debt securities of the Issuers issued under the Indenture, substantially identical in all material respects to the Initial Securities (except for the transfer restrictions relating to the Initial Securities and the provisions relating to
the matters described in Section 6 hereof) and registered under the Securities Act (the “Exchange Securities”). The Issuers shall use their commercially reasonable efforts (i) to cause each such Exchange Offer Registration
Statement to become effective under the Securities Act on or prior to 365 days after the closing date (each such closing date, a “Sale Date”) of each such permitted sale of the Initial Securities by Credit Suisse (each such 365th
day referred to in clause (i) being an “Exchange Offer Effectiveness Target 

 
Date”) and (ii) to keep each Exchange Offer Registration Statement effective for not less than 20 business days (or longer, if required by applicable law) after the date notice
of the Registered Exchange Offer is mailed to the Holders (such period being called an “Exchange Offer Registration Period”); provided that the Issuers shall not be required to effect more than one Registered Exchange Offer
during the first year after the date hereof if such Registered Exchange Offer is consummated at a point in time such that all Holders of Initial Securities sold by Credit Suisse prior to November 30, 2013 are able to participate in such
Registered Exchange Offer (subject to customary exceptions for Holders not permitted to participate in such Registered Exchange Offer by law or otherwise). 
 If the Issuers commence a Registered Exchange Offer, the Issuers (i) will be entitled to consummate such Registered Exchange Offer 20 business days after such commencement (provided that the Issuers
have accepted all the Initial Securities theretofore validly tendered in accordance with the terms of such Registered Exchange Offer) and (ii) will be required to consummate such Registered Exchange Offer no later than 40 days after the date on
which the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is declared effective (such 40th day being a “Consummation Deadline”). 
 Following the declaration of the effectiveness of an Exchange Offer Registration Statement, the Issuers shall, as promptly as practicable, commence the related Registered Exchange Offer, it being the
objective of such Registered Exchange Offer to enable each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities (as defined in Section 6 hereof) electing to exchange the Initial Securities for Exchange Securities (assuming that such Holder is not an
affiliate of the Issuers within the meaning of the Securities Act, acquires the Exchange Securities in the ordinary course of such Holder’s business and has no arrangements with any person to participate in the distribution of the Exchange
Securities and is not prohibited by any law or policy of the Commission from participating in the Registered Exchange Offer) to trade such Exchange Securities from and after their receipt without any limitations or restrictions under the Securities
Act and without material restrictions under the securities laws of the several states of the United States. 
 The Issuers
acknowledge that, pursuant to current interpretations by the Commission’s staff of Section 5 of the Securities Act, in the absence of an applicable exemption therefrom, (i) each Holder which is a broker-dealer electing to exchange
Initial Securities, acquired for its own account as a result of market making activities or other trading activities, for Exchange Securities (an “Exchanging Dealer”), is required to deliver a prospectus containing the information
set forth in (a) Annex A hereto on the cover, (b) Annex B hereto in the “Exchange Offer Procedures” section and the “Purpose of the Exchange Offer” section, and (c) Annex C hereto in the “Plan of
Distribution” section of such prospectus in connection with a sale of any such Exchange Securities received by such Exchanging Dealer pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer and (ii) if a dealer manager who acted as an underwriter or
initial purchaser in one of the permitted sales by Credit Suisse pursuant to Section 6.1 of the Exchange Agreement (an “Initial Transferee”) elects to sell Securities (as defined below) acquired in exchange for Initial
Securities constituting any portion of an unsold allotment is required to deliver a prospectus containing the information required by Items 507 or 508 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act, as applicable, in connection with such sale.

 The Issuers shall keep each Exchange Offer Registration Statement effective and shall 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 for such period of time as such persons must comply with such requirements in order
to resell the Exchange Securities; provided, however, that (i) in the case where such prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto must be delivered by an Exchanging Dealer or an Initial Transferee, such period shall be the
lesser of 180 days and the date on which all Exchanging Dealers and the Initial Transferees have sold all Exchange Securities held by them (unless such period is extended 

  
 2 

 
pursuant to Section 3(j) below) and (ii) the Issuers shall make such prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any
resale of any Exchange Securities for a period of not less than 180 days after the consummation of each Registered Exchange Offer (or such shorter period during which such persons are required by applicable law to deliver such prospectus).

 If, upon consummation of a Registered Exchange Offer, any Initial Transferee holds Initial Securities acquired by it as part
of its initial distribution, the Issuers, simultaneously with the delivery of the Exchange Securities pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer, shall issue and deliver to such Initial Transferee upon the written request of such Initial Transferee,
in exchange (the “Private Exchange”) for the Initial Securities held by such Initial Transferee, a like principal amount of debt securities of the Issuers issued under the Indenture and identical in all material respects (including
the existence of restrictions on transfer under the Securities Act and the securities laws of the several states of the United States, but excluding provisions relating to the matters described in Section 6 hereof) to the Initial Securities
(the “Private Exchange Securities”). The Initial Securities, the Exchange Securities and the Private Exchange Securities are herein collectively called the “Securities”. 

In connection with each Registered Exchange Offer, the Issuers shall: 

(a) mail to each Holder a copy of the prospectus forming part of such Exchange Offer Registration Statement, together with
an appropriate letter of transmittal and related documents; 
 (b) keep such Registered Exchange Offer open for
not less than 20 business days (or longer, if required by applicable law) after the date notice thereof is mailed to the Holders; 
 (c) utilize the services of a depositary for such Registered Exchange Offer with an address in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, which may be the Trustee or an affiliate of the Trustee;

 (d) permit Holders to withdraw tendered Securities at any time prior to the close of business, New York time,
on the last business day on which such Registered Exchange Offer shall remain open; and 
 (e) otherwise comply
in all material respects with all applicable laws. 
 As soon as practicable after the close of the Registered Exchange Offer or
the Private Exchange, as the case may be, the Issuers shall: 
 (i) accept for exchange all the Securities
validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer and the Private Exchange; 
 (ii)
deliver to the Trustee for cancellation all the Initial Securities so accepted for exchange; and 
 (iii) cause
the Trustee to authenticate and deliver promptly to each Holder of the Initial Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be, equal in principal amount to the Initial Securities of such Holder so accepted for
exchange. 

  
 3 

 The Indenture provides that the Exchange Securities will not be subject to the transfer
restrictions set forth in the Indenture and that all the Securities will vote and consent together on all matters as one class and that none of the Securities will have the right to vote or consent as a class separate from one another on any matter.

 Interest on each Exchange Security and Private Exchange Security issued pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer and in the
Private Exchange will accrue from the last interest payment date on which interest was paid on the Initial Securities surrendered in exchange therefor or, if no interest has been paid on the Initial Securities, from August 1, 2012. 

Each Holder participating in a Registered Exchange Offer shall be required to represent in writing (which may be contained in the
applicable letter of transmittal) to the Issuers that at the time of the consummation of such Registered Exchange Offer (i) any Exchange Securities received by such Holder will be acquired in the ordinary course of business, (ii) such
Holder will have no arrangements or understanding with any person to participate in the distribution of the Securities or the Exchange Securities within the meaning of the Securities Act, (iii) such Holder is not an “affiliate,” as
defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act, of the Issuers or if it is an affiliate, such Holder will comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act to the extent applicable, (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 Exchange Securities and (v) if such Holder is a broker-dealer, that it will receive Exchange Securities for its own account in exchange for
Initial Securities that were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities and that it will be required to acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities.

 Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, the Issuers will ensure that (i) any Exchange Offer Registration Statement
and any amendment thereto and any prospectus forming part thereof and any supplement thereto complies as to form in all material respects with the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, (ii) any Exchange Offer Registration
Statement and any amendment thereto does not, when it becomes effective, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and
(iii) any prospectus forming part of any Exchange Offer Registration Statement, and any supplement to such prospectus, does not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. 
 2. Shelf Registration. If, (i) because of any change in law or in applicable interpretations thereof by the staff of the Commission, the Issuers are not permitted to effect a Registered
Exchange Offer as contemplated by Section 1 hereof, (ii) a Registered Exchange Offer is not consummated by the 365th day after the applicable Sale Date, subject to the exceptions and limitations discussed in Section 1 hereto,
(iii) any Initial Transferee so requests in writing on or prior to the 60th day after the consummation of a Registered Exchange Offer with respect to the Initial Securities (or the Private Exchange Securities) not eligible to be exchanged for
Exchange Securities in the Registered Exchange Offer and held by it following consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer or (iv) any Holder (other than an Exchanging Dealer) is not eligible to participate in a Registered Exchange Offer or,
in the case of any Holder (other than an Exchanging Dealer) that participates in a Registered Exchange Offer, such Holder does not receive freely tradeable Exchange Securities on the date of the exchange or may not resell the Exchange Securities
acquired by it in a Registered Exchange Offer to the public without delivering a prospectus, and any such Holder so requests in writing on or prior to the 60th day after the consummation of a Registered Exchange Offer, the Issuers shall take the
following actions (the date on which any of the conditions described in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iv) occur, including in the case of clauses (iii) or (iv) the receipt of the required notice, being a “Trigger
Date”): 

  
 4 

 (a) The Issuers shall, at their cost, file with the Commission and
thereafter use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be declared effective (unless it becomes effective automatically upon filing) (x) in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement filed pursuant to clause (i) of the foregoing
paragraph, no later than 365 days after the applicable Sale Date, subject to the exceptions and limitations discussed in Section 1 hereto, and (y) in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement filed pursuant to clause (ii), (iii) or
(iv) of the foregoing paragraph, as promptly as possible after the 365th day after the applicable Sale Date, subject to the exceptions and limitations discussed in Section 1 hereto (such 365th day referred to in clauses (x) and
(y) being the “Shelf Effectiveness Target Date”), subject to the exceptions and limitations discussed in Section 1 hereto, a registration statement (the “Shelf Registration Statement” and, together with
the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, a “Registration Statement”) on an appropriate form under the Securities Act relating to the offer and sale of the Transfer Restricted Securities by the Holders thereof from time to time in
accordance with the methods of distribution set forth in the Shelf Registration Statement and Rule 415 under the Securities Act (hereinafter, the “Shelf Registration”); provided, however, that no Holder (other than an
Initial Transferee) shall be entitled to have the Securities held by it covered by such Shelf Registration Statement unless such Holder agrees in writing to be bound by all the provisions of this Agreement applicable to such Holder. 

(b) The Issuers shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously
effective in order to permit the prospectus included therein to be lawfully delivered by the Holders of the relevant Securities, for a period of two years (or for such longer period if extended pursuant to Section 3(j) below) from the date of
its effectiveness or such shorter period that will terminate when all the Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement (i) have been sold pursuant thereto or (ii) can be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, without
any limitations under clauses (c), (e), (f) and (h) thereof. 
 (c) Notwithstanding any other
provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, the Issuers shall cause the Shelf Registration Statement and the related prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, as of the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement, amendment or
supplement, (i) to comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission and (ii) not to contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to
state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. 

3. Registration Procedures. In connection with any Shelf Registration contemplated by Section 2 hereof and, to the extent
applicable, any Registered Exchange Offer contemplated by Section 1 hereof, the following provisions shall apply: 
 (a) The Issuers shall (i) furnish to each Initial Transferee, prior to the filing thereof with the Commission, a copy of the Registration Statement and each amendment thereof and each supplement, if
any, to the prospectus included therein and, in the event that an Initial Transferee (with respect to any portion of an unsold allotment from an original offering) is participating in the Registered Exchange Offer or the Shelf Registration
Statement, the Issuers shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to reflect in each such document, when so filed with the Commission, such comments as such Initial Transferee reasonably may propose; (ii) include the information set forth
in Annex A hereto on the cover, in Annex B hereto in the “Exchange Offer Procedures” section and the “Purpose of the Exchange Offer” section and in Annex C hereto in the “Plan of Distribution” section of the prospectus
forming a part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement and include the information set forth in Annex D hereto in the Letter of Transmittal delivered pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer; (iii) if requested by an Initial

  
 5 

 
Transferee in writing, include the information required by Items 507 or 508 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act, as applicable, in the prospectus forming a part of the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement; (iv) include within the prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement a section entitled “Plan of Distribution,” reasonably acceptable to the Initial Transferees, which shall contain a
summary statement of the positions taken or policies made by the staff of the Commission with respect to the potential “underwriter” status of any broker-dealer that is the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) of Exchange Securities received by such broker-dealer in the Registered Exchange Offer (a “Participating Broker-Dealer”), whether such positions or policies
have been publicly disseminated by the staff of the Commission or such positions or policies, in the reasonable judgment of the Initial Transferees based upon advice of counsel (which may be in-house counsel), represent the prevailing views of the
staff of the Commission; and (v) in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, include in the prospectus included in the Shelf Registration (or, if permitted by Commission Rule 430B(b), in a prospectus supplement that becomes a part thereof
pursuant to Commission Rule 430B(f)) that is delivered to any Holder pursuant to Section 3(d) and (f), the names of the Holders who propose to sell Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement as selling securityholders. 

(b) The Issuers shall give written notice to the Initial Transferees, any Participating Broker-Dealer from whom the
Issuers have received prior written notice that it will be a Participating Broker-Dealer in a Registered Exchange Offer and, in the case of a Shelf Registration only, each Holder of the Securities (which notice pursuant to clauses
(ii)-(v) hereof shall be accompanied by an instruction to suspend the use of the prospectus until the requisite changes have been made): 
 (i) when the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective; 
 (ii) of any request by the Commission after the Registration Statement has become effective for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the prospectus included therein or for additional
information; 
 (iii) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the
Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose, of the issuance by the Commission of a notification of objection to the use of the form on which the Registration Statement has been filed, and of the happening of any
event that causes the Issuers to become “ineligible issuers,” as defined in Commission Rule 405; 

(iv) of the receipt by the Issuers or their legal counsel of any notification with respect to the suspension of the
qualification of the Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and 
 (v) of the happening of any event during the period that the Registration Statement is effective that requires the Issuers to make changes in the Registration Statement or the prospectus in order that the
Registration Statement or the prospectus do not contain an untrue statement of a material fact nor omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of the prospectus, in light of
the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading. 

  
 6 

 (c) The Issuers shall make every reasonable effort to obtain the withdrawal
at the earliest possible time of any order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement. 
 (d) The
Issuers shall furnish to each Holder of Securities included within the coverage of the Shelf Registration, without charge, at least one copy of the Shelf Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment or supplement thereto, including
financial statements and schedules, and, if the Holder so requests in writing, all exhibits thereto (including those, if any, incorporated by reference). The Issuers shall not, without prior consent of the Initial Transferees, make any offer
relating to the Securities that would constitute a “free writing prospectus,” as defined in Commission Rule 405. 
 (e) The Issuers shall deliver to each Exchanging Dealer and each Initial Transferee, and to any other Holder who so requests, without charge, at least one copy of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement
and any post-effective amendment thereto, including financial statements and schedules, and, if any Initial Transferee or any such Holder requests, all exhibits thereto (including those incorporated by reference). 

(f) The Issuers shall, during the Shelf Registration Period, deliver to each Holder of Securities included within the
coverage of the Shelf Registration, without charge, as many copies of the prospectus (including each preliminary prospectus) included in the Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto as such person may reasonably request.
The Issuers consent, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, to the use of the prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto by each of the selling Holders of the Securities in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities covered
by the prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, included in the Shelf Registration Statement. 
 (g)
The Issuers shall deliver to each Initial Transferee, any Exchanging Dealer, any Participating Broker-Dealer and such other persons required to deliver a prospectus following a Registered Exchange Offer, without charge, as many copies of the final
prospectus included in an Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto as such persons may reasonably request. The Issuers consent, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, to the use of the prospectus or any
amendment or supplement thereto by any Initial Transferee, if necessary, any Participating Broker-Dealer and such other persons required to deliver a prospectus following a Registered Exchange Offer in connection with the offering and sale of the
Exchange Securities covered by the prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, included in such Exchange Offer Registration Statement. 
 (h) Prior to any public offering of the Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement, the Issuers shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify or cooperate with the Holders
of the Securities included therein and their respective counsel in connection with the registration or qualification of the Securities for offer and sale under the securities or “blue sky” laws of such states of the United States as any
Holder of the Securities reasonably requests in writing and do any and all other acts or things necessary or advisable to enable the offer and sale in such jurisdictions of the Securities covered by such Registration Statement; provided,
however, that the Issuers shall not be required to (i) qualify generally to do business or as a dealer in securities in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified or (ii) take any action which would subject it to general
service of process or to taxation in any jurisdiction where it is not then so subject. 

  
 7 

 (i) The Issuers shall cooperate with the Holders of the Securities to
facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing the Securities to be sold pursuant to any Registration Statement free of any restrictive legends and in such denominations and registered in such names as the Holders may
request a reasonable period of time prior to sales of the Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. In addition, the Issuers shall cause the Trustee in accordance with the terms of the Indenture to cause such certificates to bear the same
CUSIP number as the securities previously issued under the Indenture and that have previously been registered under the Securities Act pursuant to the Existing Registration Rights Agreement (as defined in the Exchange Agreement). 

(j) Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by paragraphs (ii) through (v) of Section 3(b) above
during the period for which the Issuers are required to maintain an effective Registration Statement, the Issuers shall promptly prepare and file a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus and
any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to Holders of the Securities or purchasers of Securities, the prospectus will not contain an 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. If the Company notifies the Initial Transferees, the Holders of the Securities and any known Participating Broker-Dealer
in accordance with paragraphs (ii) through (v) of Section 3(b) above to suspend the use of the prospectus until the requisite changes to the prospectus have been made, then the Initial Transferees, the Holders of the Securities and
any such Participating Broker-Dealers shall suspend use of such prospectus and expressly agree to maintain the information contained in such notice confidential (except that such information may be disclosed to its counsel) until it has been
publicly disclosed by the Company; notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuers shall not be required to amend or supplement a Registration Statement or any related prospectus if (i) an event occurs and is continuing as a result of which the
Shelf Registration or any related prospectus would, in the Company’s good faith judgment, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading (with
respect to such prospectus only, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) and (ii)(a) the Company determines in its good faith judgment that the disclosure of such event at such time would have a material adverse effect on its
business, operations or prospects or (b) the disclosure otherwise relates to a pending material business transaction that has not yet been publicly disclosed; and the period of effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement provided for in
Section 2(b) above and the Exchange Offer Registration Statement provided for in Section 1 above shall each be extended by the number of days from and including the date of the giving of such notice to and including the date when the
Initial Transferees, the Holders of the Securities and any known Participating Broker-Dealer shall have received such amended or supplemented prospectus pursuant to this Section 3(j). During the period during which the Issuers are required to
maintain an effective Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to this Agreement, the Issuers will prior to the three-year expiration of that Shelf Registration Statement file, and use their best efforts to cause to be declared effective (unless it
becomes effective automatically upon filing) within a period that avoids any interruption in the ability of Holders of Securities covered by the expiring Shelf Registration Statement to make registered dispositions, a new registration statement
relating to the Securities, which shall be deemed the “Shelf Registration Statement” for purposes of this Agreement. 
 (k) The Issuers will comply with all rules and regulations of the Commission to the extent and so long as they are applicable to a Registered Exchange Offer or a Shelf Registration and will make generally
available to their security holders (or otherwise provide in accordance with Section 11(a) of the Securities Act) an earning statement satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act, no later than 50 days after the
end of a 12-month period (or 105 days, if such period is a fiscal year) beginning with the first month of the Company’s first fiscal quarter commencing after the effective date of the Registration Statement, which statement shall cover such
12-month period.

 (l) The Issuers shall cause the Indenture to be qualified under the Trust
Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, in a timely manner and containing such changes, if any, as shall be necessary for such qualification. In the event that such qualification would require the appointment of a new trustee under the Indenture, the
Issuers shall appoint a new trustee thereunder pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Indenture. 
 (m) The
Issuers may require each Holder of Securities to be sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement to furnish to the Issuers such information regarding the Holder and the distribution of the Securities as the Issuers may from time to time
reasonably require for inclusion in the Shelf Registration Statement, and the Issuers may exclude from such registration the Securities of any Holder that fails to furnish such information within a reasonable time after receiving such request.

 (n) In the case of an offering of Securities to an underwriter or underwriters for reoffering to the public
(an “Underwritten Offering”) pursuant to any Shelf Registration, the Issuers shall enter into such customary agreements (including, if requested, an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take all such other action, if any, as any
Holder of the Securities shall reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Securities pursuant to any Shelf Registration. 
 (o) In the case of any Shelf Registration, the Company shall (i) make reasonably available for inspection by the Holders of the Securities, any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant
to the Shelf Registration Statement and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by the Holders of the Securities or any such underwriter, at reasonable times and in a reasonable manner, all relevant financial and other records, pertinent
corporate documents and properties of the Company and (ii) cause the Company’s officers, directors, employees, accountants and auditors to supply all relevant information reasonably requested by the Holders of the Securities or any such
underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with the Shelf Registration Statement, in each case, as shall be reasonably necessary to enable such persons to conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of Section 11 of the
Securities Act; provided, however, that the foregoing inspection and information gathering shall be coordinated on behalf of the Initial Transferees by Credit Suisse and on behalf of the other parties, by one counsel designated by and
on behalf of such other parties as described in Section 4 hereof; and provided, further, that each such Holder, underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent shall agree in writing that it will keep such information confidential and
that it will not disclose any of the information that the Company determines, in good faith, to be confidential and notifies them in writing are confidential unless (A) the disclosure of such information is necessary to avoid or correct a
material misstatement or material omission in such Registration Statement or prospectus, (B) the release of such information is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other order from a court of competent jurisdiction, or is reasonably necessary in
order to establish a “due diligence” defense pursuant to Section 11 of the Securities Act, or (C) the information has been made generally available to the public other than by any of such persons or their respective affiliates;
provided, however, that prior notice shall be provided as soon as practicable to the Company of the potential disclosure of any information by such person pursuant to clause (A) or (B) of this sentence in order to permit the
Issuers to obtain a protective order (or to waive the provisions of this paragraph (o)). 
 (p) In the case of an
Underwritten Offering pursuant to any Shelf Registration, the Issuers, if requested by any Holder of Securities covered thereby, shall cause (i) its counsel to deliver an opinion and updates thereof relating to the Securities in

  
 9 

 
customary form and covering matters customarily covered in opinions delivered in connection with such transactions and addressed to such Holders and the managing underwriters, if any, thereof and
dated, in the case of the initial opinion, the effective date of such Shelf Registration Statement and as of an applicable time identified by such Holders or managing underwriters; (ii) its officers to execute and deliver all customary
documents and certificates and updates thereof requested by any underwriters of the applicable Securities; and (iii) its independent public accountants to provide to the selling Holders of the applicable Securities and any underwriter therefor
a comfort letter in customary form and covering matters of the type customarily covered in comfort letters in connection with primary underwritten offerings, subject to receipt of appropriate documentation as contemplated, and only if permitted, by
Statement of Auditing Standards No. 72. 
 (q) If a Registered Exchange Offer or a Private Exchange is to be
consummated, upon delivery of the Initial Securities by Holders to the Issuers (or to such other Person as directed by the Issuers) in exchange for the Exchange Securities or the Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be, the Issuers shall
mark, or cause to be marked, on the Initial Securities so exchanged that such Initial Securities are being canceled in exchange for the Exchange Securities or the Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be; in no event shall the Initial
Securities be marked as paid or otherwise satisfied. 
 (r) The Issuers will use their commercially reasonable
efforts to (a) if the Initial Securities have been rated prior to the initial sale of such Initial Securities, confirm such ratings will apply to the Securities covered by a Registration Statement, or (b) if the Initial Securities were not
previously rated, cause the Securities covered by a Registration Statement to be rated with the appropriate rating agencies, if so requested by Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of Securities covered by such Registration Statement,
or by the managing underwriters, if any. 
 (s) In the event that any broker-dealer registered under the Exchange
Act shall underwrite any Securities or participate as a member of an underwriting syndicate or selling group or “assist in the distribution” (within the meaning of the Conduct Rules (the “Rules”) of the Financial Industry
Regulatory Authority, Inc.) thereof, whether as a Holder of such Securities or as an underwriter, a placement or sales agent or a broker or dealer in respect thereof, or otherwise, the Issuers will cooperate with such broker-dealer in complying with
the requirements of such Rules, including, without limitation, by (i) if such Rules, including Rule 5121, shall so require, at the expense of the Holders, engaging a “qualified independent underwriter” (as defined in Rule 5121) to
participate in the preparation of the Registration Statement relating to such Securities, to exercise usual standards of due diligence in respect thereof and, if any portion of the offering contemplated by such Registration Statement is an
underwritten offering or is made through a placement or sales agent, to recommend the yield of such Securities, (ii) indemnifying any such qualified independent underwriter to the extent of the indemnification of underwriters provided in
Section 5 hereof and (iii) providing such information to such broker-dealer as may be required in order for such broker-dealer to comply with the requirements of the Rules. 

4. Registration Expenses. All expenses incident to the Issuers’ performance of and compliance with this Agreement will be
borne by the Issuers, regardless of whether a Registration Statement is ever filed or becomes effective, including without limitation; 
 (a) all registration and filing fees and expenses; 

  
 10 

 (b) all fees and expenses of compliance with federal securities and state
“blue sky” or securities laws; 
 (c) all expenses of printing (including printing of prospectuses),
messenger and delivery services and telephone; 
 (d) all fees and disbursements of counsel for the Issuers; and

 (e) all fees and disbursements of independent certified public accountants of the Company (including the
expenses of any special audit and comfort letters required by or incident to such performance). 
 The Issuers will bear their
internal expenses (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of their or the Company’s officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expenses of any annual audit and the fees and expenses of any person,
including special experts, retained by the Issuers or the Company. Each Holder shall pay all underwriting discounts and commissions, and the fees of any counsel retained by or on behalf of the underwriters, and transfer taxes, if any, related to the
sale or disposition of a Holder’s Securities pursuant to any Shelf Registration Statement. 
 5. Indemnification.

 (a) The Issuers agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder of the Securities, any Participating
Broker-Dealer and each person, if any, who controls such Holder or such Participating Broker-Dealer within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each Holder, any Participating Broker-Dealer and such controlling persons are referred
to collectively as the “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, or any actions in respect thereof (including, but not limited to, any losses, claims, damages, liabilities
or actions relating to purchases and sales of the Securities) to which each Indemnified Party may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions arise out of or
are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement or prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus or “issuer free writing
prospectus” as defined in Commission Rule 433 (“Issuer FWP”) relating to a Shelf Registration, or arise out of, or are based upon, the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and shall reimburse, as incurred, the Indemnified Parties for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim,
damage, liability or action in respect thereof; provided, however, that (i) the Issuers shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in a Registration Statement or prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus or Issuer FWP relating to a Shelf Registration in
reliance upon and in conformity with written information pertaining to such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer and furnished to the Issuers by or on behalf of such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer specifically for inclusion therein and
(ii) with respect to any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in any preliminary prospectus relating to a Shelf Registration Statement, the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection (a) shall not
inure to the benefit of any Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer from whom the person asserting any such losses, claims, damages or liabilities purchased the Securities concerned, to the extent that a prospectus relating to such Securities was
required to be delivered (including through satisfaction of the condition of 

  
 11 

 
Commission Rule 172) by such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer under the Securities Act in connection with such purchase and any such loss, claim, damage or liability of such Holder or
Participating Broker-Dealer results from the fact that there was not conveyed to such person, at or prior to the time of the sale of such Securities to such person, an amended or supplemented prospectus or, if permitted by Section 3(d), an
Issuer FWP correcting such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission if the Issuers had previously furnished copies thereof to such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer; provided further, however, that this
indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Issuers may otherwise have to such Indemnified Party. The Issuers shall also indemnify underwriters, their officers and directors and each person who controls such underwriters
within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act to the same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the Holders of the Securities if requested by such Holders. 

(b) Each Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer of the Securities, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold
harmless the Issuers and each person, if any, who controls the Issuers within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, or any actions in respect thereof
(including, but not limited to, any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions relating to purchases and sales of the Securities), to which the Issuers or any such controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act
or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement or prospectus or in any amendment
or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus or Issuer FWP relating to a Shelf Registration, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading and shall reimburse, as incurred, the Issuers for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action in respect thereof, but in each case
only to the extent that the untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information pertaining to such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer and furnished to the
Issuers by or on behalf of such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer specifically for inclusion therein; and, subject to the limitation set forth immediately preceding this clause, shall reimburse, as incurred, the Issuers for any legal or other
expenses reasonably incurred by the Issuers or any such controlling person in connection with investigating or defending any loss, claim, damage, liability or action in respect thereof. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability
which such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer may otherwise have to the Issuers or any of their controlling persons. 
 (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 5 of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including a governmental investigation), such indemnified party
will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 5, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof; but the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the
indemnifying party from any liability that it may have under subsection (a) or (b) above except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided
further that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under subsection (a) or (b) above. In case any such action is brought against any
indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified,
to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party (which counsel shall not, 

  
 12 

 
except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the
defense thereof the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 5 for any legal or other expenses, other than reasonable costs of investigation, subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in
connection with the defense thereof. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the
indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the contrary; (ii) the indemnifying party has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; (iii) the
indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party; or (iv) the named parties in any such proceeding (including
any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood and
agreed that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses or more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all indemnified
parties, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Any such separate firm for any Initial Transferee, its affiliates, directors and officers and any control persons of such Initial Transferee shall be designated
in writing by Credit Suisse and any such separate firm for the Issuers, the Guarantors, their directors and officers and any control persons of the Issuers and the Guarantors shall be designated in writing by the Issuers. No indemnifying party
shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, provided that such consent is not unreasonably withheld or delayed, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action in respect of which any indemnified party is or could
have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter of
such action, 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) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5 is unavailable or insufficient (although applicable in
accordance with its terms) to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsections (a) or (b) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims,
damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand
and the indemnified party on the other from the exchange of the Securities, pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer, or (ii) if the allocation provided by the foregoing clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as
is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements
or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the parties shall be determined by reference to, among other
things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Issuers on the one hand or such Holder or such other indemnified party, as
the case may be, on the other, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims,
damages 

  
 13 

 
or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection
with investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this subsection (d). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5(d), the Holders of the Securities shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of
the amount by which the net proceeds received by such Holders from the sale of the Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement exceeds the amount of damages which such Holders have 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. For purposes of this paragraph (d), each person, if any, who controls such indemnified party within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such indemnified
party and each person, if any, who controls the Issuers within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Issuers. 

(e) The agreements contained in this Section 5 shall survive the sale of the Securities pursuant to a Registration
Statement and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination or cancellation of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of any indemnified party. 

6. Additional Interest Under Certain Circumstances. 

(a) Additional interest (the “Additional Interest”) with respect to the Securities shall be assessed as
follows if any of the following events occur (each such event in clauses (i) through (v) below being herein called a “Registration Default”): 

(i) if any such Registration Statement is not declared effective by the Commission on or prior to the Exchange Offer
Effectiveness Target Date or the Shelf Effectiveness Target Date, as applicable, and subject to the exceptions and limitations discussed herein; 
 (ii) if a Registered Exchange Offer is not consummated by the 30th day after the Exchange Offer Effectiveness Target Date, subject to the exceptions and limitations discussed herein; 

(iii) if after either an Exchange Offer Registration Statement or a Shelf Registration Statement, as the case may be, is
declared (or becomes automatically) effective (A) such Registration Statement thereafter ceases to be effective; or (B) such Registration Statement or the related prospectus ceases to be usable (except as permitted in paragraph (b)) in
connection with resales of Transfer Restricted Securities during the periods specified herein because (1) any event occurs as a result of which the related prospectus forming part of such Registration Statement would include any untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein in the light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading, (2) it shall be necessary to amend such Registration Statement
or supplement the related prospectus to comply with the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or the respective rules thereunder, or (3) such Registration Statement is a Shelf Registration Statement that has expired before a replacement Shelf
Registration Statement has become effective. 
 Subject to the exceptions and limitations discussed herein, each of the foregoing
will constitute a Registration Default whatever the reason for any such event and whether it is voluntary or involuntary or is beyond the control of the Issuers or pursuant to operation of law or as a result of any action or inaction by the
Commission. The Issuers shall promptly give written notice to the Trustee following the occurrence of a Registration Default. 

  
 14 

 Additional Interest shall accrue on the Securities affected by such Registrations Default
over and above the interest set forth in the title of the Securities from and including the date on which any such Registration Default shall occur to but excluding the earlier of (x) the date on which all such Registration Defaults have been
cured and (y) the date which is two years from the date hereof, at a rate of 0.25% per annum (the “Additional Interest Rate”) for the first 90-day period immediately following the occurrence of such Registration Default.
The Additional Interest Rate shall increase by an additional 0.25% per annum with respect to each subsequent 90-day period until all Registration Defaults have been cured, up to a maximum Additional Interest Rate of 1.0% per annum. In no
event shall the Issuers be obligated to pay Additional Interest under more than one of the clauses in this Section 6(a) at any one time and, in the case of a Shelf Registration, it is expressly understood that Additional Interest should be
payable only with respect to Securities so requested to be registered pursuant to Section 2 hereof. 
 (b) A
Registration Default referred to in Section 6(a)(iii) hereof shall be deemed not to have occurred and be continuing in relation to a Shelf Registration Statement or the related prospectus if (i) such Registration Default has occurred
solely as a result of (x) the filing of a post-effective amendment to such Shelf Registration Statement to incorporate annual audited financial information with respect to the Issuers where such post-effective amendment is not yet effective and
needs to be declared effective to permit Holders to use the related prospectus, (y) other material events with respect to the Issuers that would need to be described in such Shelf Registration Statement or the related prospectus or (z) the
suspension of the effectiveness of such Registration Statement because the Issuers do not wish to disclose publicly a pending material business transaction that has not yet been publicly disclosed, and (ii) in the case of clause (y), the
Issuers are proceeding promptly and in good faith to amend or supplement such Shelf Registration Statement and related prospectus to describe such events; provided, however, that if (A) in the case of a Registration Default
described in clause (i)(x), such Registration Default occurs for a continuous period in excess of 30 days and (B) in the case of a Registration Default described in clause (i)(y) or (i)(z), such Registration Default occurs for a period of more
than 45 days in any three-month period or more than an aggregate of 90 days in any 12-month period, then Additional Interest shall be payable in accordance with the above paragraph from the day such Registration Default occurs until such
Registration Default is cured. 
 (c) Any amounts of Additional Interest due pursuant to Section 6(a) will
be payable in cash on the regular interest payment dates with respect to the Securities. The amount of Additional Interest will be determined by multiplying the applicable Additional Interest Rate by the principal amount of the Securities and
further 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 the denominator of
which is 360. 
 (d) “Transfer Restricted Securities” means each Security sold by Credit Suisse
to third parties other than Securities sold pursuant to Rule 144 until (i) the date on which such Security has been exchanged by a person other than a broker-dealer for a freely transferable Exchange Security in a Registered Exchange Offer,
(ii) following the exchange by a broker-dealer in a Registered Exchange Offer of an Initial Security for an Exchange Security, the date on which such Exchange Security is sold to a purchaser who receives from such broker-dealer on or prior to
the date of such sale a copy of the prospectus contained in an Exchange Offer Registration Statement, or (iii) the date on which such Security has been effectively registered under the Securities Act and disposed of in accordance with a Shelf
Registration Statement. 

  
 15 

 7. Agreement to Provide Information. The Company shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to file the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act in a timely manner and, if at any time the Company is not required to file such reports, it will, upon the request of any Holder of Transfer
Restricted Securities, make publicly available other information so long as reasonably necessary to permit sales of their securities pursuant to Rules 144 and 144A. The Issuers will provide a copy of this Agreement to prospective purchasers of
Initial Securities identified to the Issuers by Credit Suisse upon request. Upon the request of any Holder of Initial Securities, the Issuers shall deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 7 shall be deemed to require the Issuers or the Company to register any of their securities pursuant to the Exchange Act. 

8. Underwritten Registrations. If any of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by any Shelf Registration are to be sold in an
Underwritten Offering, the investment banker or investment bankers and manager or managers that will administer the offering (“Managing Underwriters”) will be selected by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of
such Transfer Restricted Securities to be included in such offering. 
 No person may participate in any Underwritten Offering
hereunder unless such person (i) agrees to sell such person’s Transfer Restricted Securities on the basis reasonably provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and
(ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements. 

9. Miscellaneous. 
 (a) Remedies. The Issuers acknowledge and agree that any failure by the Issuers to comply with their obligations under Section 1 and 2 hereof may result in material irreparable injury to
Credit Suisse or the Holders for which there is no adequate remedy at law, that it will not be possible to measure damages for such injuries precisely and that, in the event of any such failure, Credit Suisse or any Holder may obtain such relief as
may be required to specifically enforce the Issuers’ obligations under Sections 1 and 2 hereof. The Issuers further agree to waive the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate. 

(b) No Inconsistent Agreements. The Issuers will not on or after the date of this Agreement enter into any
agreement with respect to their securities that is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof. The rights granted to the Holders hereunder do not in any way conflict with
and are not inconsistent with the rights granted to the holders of the Issuers’ securities under any agreement in effect on the date hereof. 
 (c) 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, except
by the Issuers and the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities affected by such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or consent. Without the consent of the Holder of each Security, however, no
modification may change the provisions relating to the payment of Additional Interest. Subject to the foregoing sentence, a waiver or consent to depart from the provisions hereof with respect to a matter that relates exclusively to the rights of
Holders of Securities whose Securities are being sold pursuant to a Registration Statement and that does not directly or indirectly affect, impair, limit or compromise the rights of other Holders of Securities may be given by Holders of at least a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities being sold pursuant to such Registration Statement.

adjudged to be so due in such other currency, on which (and only to the extent that) Credit Suisse may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase United States dollars with such other currency; if the United States dollars so purchased
are less than the sum originally due to Credit Suisse hereunder, each of the Issuers and the Guarantors agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify Credit Suisse against such loss. If the United States
dollars so purchased are greater than the sum originally due to Credit Suisse hereunder, Credit Suisse agree to pay to the Issuers and the Guarantors, collectively, an amount equal to the excess of the dollars so purchased over the sum originally
due to Credit Suisse hereunder.

Issuers to comply with, their obligations pursuant to this Agreement.

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

  
 22 

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

  
 23 

 ANNEX C 
 PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION 
 Each broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for
its own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. This Prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a
broker-dealer in connection with resales of Exchange Securities received in exchange for Initial Securities where such Initial Securities were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. The Issuers have agreed
that, for a period of 180 days after the Expiration Date, they will make this prospectus, as amended or supplemented, available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale. In addition, until
            , all dealers effecting transactions in the Exchange Securities may be required to deliver a prospectus.1 
 The Issuers will not receive any proceeds from any sale of Exchange Securities by broker-dealers. Exchange Securities received by broker-dealers for their own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer may be
sold from time to time in one or more transactions in the over-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions, through the writing of options on the Exchange Securities or a combination of such methods of resale, at market prices prevailing at the
time of resale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or negotiated prices. Any such resale may be made directly to purchasers or to or through brokers or dealers who may receive compensation in the form of commissions or concessions
from any such broker-dealer or the purchasers of any such Exchange Securities. Any broker-dealer that resells Exchange Securities that were received by it for its own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer and any broker or dealer that participates
in a distribution of such Exchange Securities may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act and any profit on any such resale of Exchange Securities and any commission or concessions received by any such
persons may be deemed to be underwriting compensation under the Securities Act. The Letter of Transmittal states that, by acknowledging that it will deliver and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an
“underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act. 
 For a period of 180 days after the Expiration Date the
Issuers will promptly send additional copies of this Prospectus and any amendment or supplement to this Prospectus to any broker-dealer that requests such documents in the Letter of Transmittal. The Issuers have agreed to pay all expenses incident
to the Exchange Offer (including the expenses of one counsel for the Holders of the Securities) other than commissions or concessions of any brokers or dealers and will indemnify the Holders of the Securities (including any broker-dealers) against
certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. 
  

 

	1 	In addition, the legend required by Item 502(b) of Regulation S-K will appear on the inside front cover page of the Exchange Offer prospectus below the Table of
Contents.

	Address:	 	  

 If the undersigned is not a broker-dealer, the undersigned represents that it is not engaged in, and does not intend to
engage in, a distribution of Exchange Securities. If the undersigned is a broker-dealer that will receive Exchange Securities for its own account in exchange for Initial Securities that were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other
trading activities, it acknowledges that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities; however, by so acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, the undersigned will not be deemed to admit that it is an
“underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act.
