 ARTICLE 2 
 THE NOTES 
 Section 2.01 Form and Dating. 
 (a) General. The Notes and the
Trustee’s certificate of authentication will be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or usage. Each Note will be dated the date of its
authentication. The Notes shall be issued in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. 
 The Company may issue Additional Notes from time to time after the Issue Date, provided such issuance and incurrence would then comply with Section 4.08 (“Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance
of Preferred Stock”). The Initial Notes and the Additional Notes shall be treated as a single class for all purposes under this Indenture, and unless the context otherwise requires, all references to the “Notes” shall include the
Initial Notes and any Additional Notes. 
 The terms and provisions contained in the Notes will constitute, and are hereby
expressly made, a part of this Indenture and the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Noteholder Collateral Agent, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby.
However, to the extent any provision of any Note conflicts with the express provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling. 
 (b) Global Notes. Notes issued in global form will be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (including the Global Note Legend thereon and the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the
Global Note” attached thereto). Notes issued in certificated form will be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (but without the Global Note Legend thereon and without the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global
Note” attached thereto). Each Global Note will represent such of the outstanding Notes as will be specified therein and each shall provide that it represents the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes from time to time endorsed thereon
and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges and redemptions. Any endorsement of a Global Note to reflect the amount of any
increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby will be made by the Trustee or the Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, in accordance with instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by
Section 2.06 (“Transfer and Exchange”) hereof. 
 (c) Euroclear and Clearstream Procedures Applicable. The
provisions of the “Operating Procedures of the Euroclear System” and “Terms and Conditions Governing Use of Euroclear” and the “General Terms and Conditions of Clearstream Banking” and “Customer Handbook” of
Clearstream will be applicable to transfers of beneficial interests in the Regulation S Global Note that are held by Participants through Euroclear or Clearstream. 

  
 38 

 Section 2.02 Execution and Authentication. 

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

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

The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Company to authenticate Notes. An authenticating agent may authenticate
Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with Holders or an Affiliate of the
Company. 
 Section 2.03 Registrar and Paying Agent. 
 The Company will maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (“Registrar”) and an office or agency where Notes may be presented
for payment (“Paying Agent”). The Registrar will keep a register of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange. The Company may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional Paying Agents. The term
“Registrar” includes any co-registrar and the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional Paying Agent. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company will notify the Trustee in
writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Company fails to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act as
Paying Agent or Registrar. 
 The Company initially appoints The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) to act as
Depositary with respect to the Global Notes. 

  
 39 

 The Company initially appoints the Trustee to act as the Registrar and Paying Agent and to
act as Custodian with respect to the Global Notes. 
 Section 2.04 Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. 

The Company will require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust for the
benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, and will notify the Trustee of any default by the Company in making any such payment. While any such
default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent
(if other than the Company or a Subsidiary) will have no further liability for the money. If the Company or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it will segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as
Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Company, the Trustee will serve as Paying Agent for the Notes. 

Section 2.05 Holder Lists. 
 The Trustee will preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of all Holders and shall otherwise comply with TIA §
312(a). If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company will furnish to the Trustee at least seven Business Days before each Interest Payment Date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such
date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Holders and the Company shall otherwise comply with TIA § 312(a). 
 Section 2.06 Transfer and Exchange. 
 (a) Transfer and Exchange of
Global Notes. A Global Note may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary, by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or to another nominee of the Depositary, or by the Depositary or any such
nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary. All Global Notes will be exchanged by the Company for Certificated Notes if: 
 (1) the Company delivers to the Trustee notice from the Depositary that it is unwilling or unable to continue to act as Depositary or that it is no longer a clearing agency registered under the Exchange
Act and, in either case, a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Company within 90 days after the date of such notice from the Depositary; 
 (2) the Company in its sole discretion determines that the Global Notes (in whole but not in part) should be exchanged for Certificated Notes and delivers a written notice to such effect to the Trustee;
or 
 (3) there has occurred and is continuing a Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes and the
Registrar has received a written request from the Depositary to issue Certificated Notes. 

  
 40 

 Upon the occurrence of any of the preceding events in (1), (2) or (3) above, Certificated Notes
shall be issued in such names as the Depositary shall instruct the Trustee. Global Notes also may be exchanged or replaced, in whole or in part, as provided in Sections 2.07 (“Replacement Notes”) and 2.10 (“Temporary Notes”)
hereof. Every Note authenticated and delivered in exchange for, or in lieu of, a Global Note or any portion thereof, pursuant to this Section or Section 2.07 (“Replacement Notes”) or 2.10 (“Temporary Notes”) hereof, shall be
authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Note. A Global Note may not be exchanged for another Note other than as provided in this Section, however, beneficial interests in a Global Note may be transferred and exchanged as
provided in Section 2.06(b) or (c) (“Transfer and Exchange”) hereof. 
 (b) Transfer and Exchange of
Beneficial Interests in the Global Notes. The transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in the Global Notes will be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture and the Applicable Procedures.

require compliance with either subparagraph (1) or (2) below, as applicable, as well as one or more of the other following subparagraphs, as applicable: 

(1) Transfer of Beneficial Interests in the Same Global Note. Beneficial interests in any Restricted Global Note
may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the same Restricted Global Note in accordance with the transfer restrictions set forth in the Private Placement Legend. No written orders or instructions
shall be required to be delivered to the Registrar to effect the transfers described in clause (1). 
 (2) All

Applicable Procedures directing the Depositary to credit or cause to be credited a beneficial interest in another Global Note in an amount equal to the beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged; and

account to be credited with such increase; or

Certificated Note shall be registered to effect the transfer or exchange referred to in (1) above. 

  
 41

hereof.

certifications, certificates and Opinions of Counsel required to be submitted to the Registrar pursuant to this Section to effect a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted by facsimile. 

Section 2.07 Replacement Notes. 
 If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or the Company and the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, the Company will issue and the
Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, will authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements are met. If required by the Trustee or the Company, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the
judgment of the (i) the Trustee to protect the Trustee and (ii) the Company to protect the Company, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Company may charge
for its expenses in replacing a Note. 
 Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Company and will be entitled
to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder. 
 Section 2.08
Outstanding Notes. 
 The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those
canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture, and those described in this Section as not outstanding. Except as
set forth in Section 2.09 (“Treasury Notes”) hereof, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Note; however, Notes held by the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company shall
not be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of Section 3.07(c) (“Optional Redemption”) hereof. 
 If a Note is
replaced pursuant to Section 2.07 (“Replacement Notes”) hereof, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser. 

If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.01 (“Payment of Notes”) hereof, it ceases to be
outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue. 
 If the Paying Agent (other than the Company, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of
any thereof) holds, on a redemption date or maturity date, money sufficient to pay Notes payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes will be deemed to be no longer outstanding and will cease to accrue interest. 

  
 49 

 Section 2.09 Treasury Notes. 

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

Section 2.10 Temporary Notes. 
 Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, will authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes will be
substantially in the form of certificated Notes but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as may be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Company will prepare and the
Trustee will authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes. 
 Holders of temporary Notes will be entitled to
all of the benefits of this Indenture. 
 Section 2.11 Cancellation. 

The Company at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and Paying Agent will forward to the Trustee any
Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else will cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and will destroy canceled Notes
(subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act and the Trustee). Certification of the destruction or cancellation of all canceled Notes will be delivered to the Company upon written request. The Company may not issue new Notes to
replace Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 
 Section 2.12 Default Interest; Additional
Interest. 
 The Company will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on
overdue principal, premium, if any, and interest (without regard to any applicable grace period) from time to time on demand at the rate equal to 2% per annum in excess of the then applicable interest rate on the Notes to the extent lawful to
the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent Record Date, in each case at the rate provided as set forth in the Notes and consistent with Section 4.01 (“Payment of Notes”) hereof (“Default Interest”). The Company will
notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Default Interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment. The Company will fix or cause to be fixed each such Record Date and Interest Payment Date; provided that no
such Record Date may be less than 10 days prior to the related Interest Payment Date. At least 15 days before the Record Date, the Company (or, upon the written request of the Company, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company) will
mail or cause to be sent to Holders a notice that states the Record Date, the related Interest Payment Date and the amount of such interest to be paid. 

  
 50 

 The Company will pay Additional Interest, if any, to Holders pursuant to the Registration
Rights Agreement. 
 Section 2.13 Persons Deemed Owners. 
 The Holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes. Only Holders have rights under this Indenture and the Notes. 
 Section 2.14 Interest Payment Date; Record Date. 
 Interest on
outstanding Notes will accrue at the rate of 7.125% per year and will be payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year, commencing on October 1, 2013 (each, an “Interest Payment Date”).
The Company will make each interest payment to the Holders of record on the immediately preceding March 15 and September 15 (each, a “Record Date”). Interest on the Notes will accrue from the date of original issuance or,
if interest has already been paid, from the date it was most recently paid. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. 
 ARTICLE 3 
 REDEMPTION AND PURCHASE 

Section 3.01 Notices to Trustee. 
 If the Company elects to redeem Notes pursuant to the optional redemption provisions of Section 3.07 (“Optional Redemption”) or Section 3.08 (“Optional Redemption for Changes in
Withholding Taxes”), it must furnish to the Trustee, at least 35 days (unless the Trustee permits a shorter period) but not more than 60 days before a Redemption Date, an Officers’ Certificate setting forth: 

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

(2) the Redemption Date; 
 (3) the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed; and 
 (4) the
redemption price. 
 Section 3.02 Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed or Purchased. 

If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee will select Notes for redemption on a pro rata basis, by
lot or by such other method as the Trustee considers fair and appropriate, unless otherwise required by law or applicable stock exchange or Depositary requirements. 
 In the event of partial redemption or purchase, the particular Notes to be redeemed or purchased will be selected, unless otherwise provided herein, not less than 35 (unless the Trustee permits a shorter
period) nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date or Purchase Date by the Trustee from the outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption or purchase. 

  
 51 

 The Trustee will promptly notify the Company in writing of the Notes selected for redemption
or purchase and, in the case of any Note selected for partial redemption or purchase, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed or purchased. Notes and portions of Notes selected will be in minimum amounts of $2,000 and integral multiples of
$1,000; except that if all of the Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed or purchased, the entire outstanding amount of Notes held by such Holder, even if not a multiple of $1,000, shall be redeemed or purchased. Except as provided in the preceding
sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption or purchase also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase. 
 Section 3.03 Notice of Redemption. 
 Subject to the provisions of
Section 3.10 (“Offer to Purchase by Application of Excess Proceeds”) hereof, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a Redemption Date, the Company shall send (or transmit otherwise in accordance with the procedure of DTC),
a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be sent more than 60 days prior to a Redemption Date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the
Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Articles 8 or 10 hereof. 
 The notice will identify the
Notes to be redeemed and will state: 
 (1) the Redemption Date; 

(2) the redemption price; 
 (3) if the Notes are being redeemed in part: 
 (A) that the
Trustee shall select Notes for redemption on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee considers fair and appropriate, unless otherwise required by law or applicable stock exchange or Depositary requirements, and in any
case, not in parts of $2,000 or less; and 
 (B) the portion of the principal amount of such Notes to be
redeemed and that, after the Redemption Date upon surrender of such Notes, a Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion will be issued upon cancellation of the original Note (and in the case of global notes, in accordance with
the procedures of DTC); 
 (4) the name and address of the Paying Agent; 

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

(6) that, unless the Company defaults in making such redemption payment, interest on Notes called for redemption ceases to
accrue on and after the Redemption Date; 

  
 52 

 (7) the paragraph of the Notes and/or Section of this Indenture pursuant to
which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed; 
 (8) that no representation is made as to the
correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes; and 
 (9) if
any such redemption or notice is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, that in the Company’s discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, or such
redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date so delayed. 

At the Company’s request, the Trustee will give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at its expense; provided,
however, that the Company has delivered to the Trustee, at least 45 days prior to the Redemption Date, an Officers’ Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and setting forth the information (or a shorter period as agreed to
by the Trustee) to be stated in such notice as provided in this Section above. 
 Section 3.04 Effect of Notice of Redemption.

 Once notice of redemption is sent in accordance with Section 3.03 (“Notice of Redemption”) hereof, Notes
called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the Redemption Date at the redemption price. A notice of redemption may, at the Company’s option and discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not
limited to, completion of an Equity Offering or Change of Control, as the case may be. 
 Section 3.05 Deposit of Redemption or Purchase
Price. 
 No later than 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the Redemption Date or Purchase Date, the Company will deposit with the
Trustee or with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption or purchase price of and accrued interest on all Notes to be redeemed or purchased on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent will promptly return to the Company any money
deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Company in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption or purchase price of, and accrued interest on, all Notes to be redeemed or purchased. 

If the Company complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on and after the Redemption Date or Purchase Date, interest will
cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase. If a Note is redeemed or purchased on or after a Record Date but on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, then any accrued and unpaid interest shall be
paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such Record Date. If any Note called for redemption or purchase is not so paid upon surrender for redemption or purchase because of the failure of the Company to
comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the Redemption Date or Purchase Date until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful, on any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at
the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 (“Payment of Notes”) hereof. 

  
 53 

 Section 3.06 Notes Redeemed or Purchased in Part. 

Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed or purchased in part, the Company will issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, the
Trustee will authenticate for the Holder at the expense of the Company a Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered. 
 Section 3.07 Optional Redemption.

 (b) At any time prior to April 1, 2018, the Company may, at its option, redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at one time or from time to time, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’

of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date in respect of then outstanding Notes. 
 (c) On or after April 1, 2018, the Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at one time or from time to time, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, at the
redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, on the Notes redeemed, to the applicable Redemption Date, if redeemed during the periods indicated
below, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date:

	  	Percentage	 
	 On or after April 1, 2018
	  	 	103.5625	% 
	 On or after April 1, 2019
	  	 	102.3750	% 
	 On or after April 1, 2020
	  	 	101.1875	% 
	 On or after April 1, 2021 and thereafter
	  	 	100.0000	% 

 Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on the
Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on the applicable Redemption Date. 
 (d) At any time prior to April 1,
2016, the Company may, at its option, redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes, at one time or from time to time, issued under this Indenture (which amount includes Additional Notes, if any) at a redemption price equal to 107.125%
of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, to the applicable Redemption Date, with the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings; provided that (i) at least 65% of the aggregate
principal amount of Notes originally issued under this Indenture (excluding Notes held by the Company and its Subsidiaries) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption; and (ii) the redemption occurs within 60 days
of the date of the closing of such Equity Offering. 

  
 54 

 (e) Any redemption pursuant to this Section shall be made pursuant to the provisions of
Sections 3.01 (“Notices to Trustee”) through 3.06 (“Notes Redeemed or Purchased in Part”) hereof. 
 Section 3.08
Optional Redemption for Changes in Withholding Taxes 
 (a) At any time, the Company may redeem all, but not less than
all, of the Notes, on not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice to the Holders, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest and any Additional Amounts to the extent any Additional
Amounts are due and owing to the applicable 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), in the event that the Company or the Guarantors, as
the case may be, has become or would become obligated to pay, on the next date on which any amount would be payable with respect to the Notes, any Additional Amounts as a result of a change in or an amendment to the laws (including any regulations
or rulings promulgated thereunder) of any Specified Tax Jurisdiction (or any relevant jurisdiction, political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein), or any change in or amendment to any official position regarding the application or
interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings (including a holding by a court of competent jurisdiction), which change or amendment is announced or becomes effective on or after the date of this Indenture, and the Company or the Guarantors, as
the case may be, cannot avoid such obligation by taking reasonable measures available to them; provided that the Board of Directors of Parent determines in good faith that the aggregate amount of such Additional Amounts would create
additional annual costs in excess of 0.50% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding; and 

(1) no such notice of redemption shall be given earlier than 60 days prior to the earliest date on which the Company or
the Guarantors, as the case may be, would be obligated to pay such Additional Amounts if a payment in respect of the Notes or the Note Guarantee were then due, and 

(2) at the time any such redemption notice is given, such obligation to pay Additional Amounts must remain in effect.

 Prior to any redemption of the Notes, the Company will be required to deliver to the Trustee (i) an Officers’
Certificate stating that (x) the Company or the Guarantors, as the case may be, cannot avoid obligations to pay Additional Amounts by taking reasonable measures available to them and (y) the Company is otherwise entitled to effect such
redemption and attaching the resolutions of the Board of Directors of Parent as to additional annual costs described above and (ii) an opinion of independent legal counsel of recognized standing stating that the Company would be obligated to
pay Additional Amounts as a result of a change in tax laws or regulations and, in the case of (i) and (ii), stating that the conditions precedent to the right of redemption have occurred. No such notice of redemption may be given more than 60
days before or more than 270 days after the Company or any Guarantors, as the case may be, first becomes liable or aware of the liability to pay any Additional Amounts as a result of a change or amendment described above. 

  
 55 

 (b) Any redemption pursuant to this Section shall be made pursuant to the provisions of
Sections 3.01 (“Notices to Trustee”) through 3.06 (“Notes Redeemed or Purchased in Part”) hereof. 
 Section 3.09
Mandatory Redemption Upon Event of Loss of a Vessel. 
 (a) Upon the occurrence or happening of any Event of Loss, the
Company shall be required to redeem Notes and other Pari Passu Obligations containing provisions similar to those set forth in this Indenture with respect to a redemption upon an Event of Loss, the maximum principal amount of Notes and such other
Pari Passu Obligations that may be purchased out of the Event of Loss Proceeds received in respect of such loss (rounded to the nearest $1,000) upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice to the Holders, at a redemption price equal to
100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes redeemed to the applicable Redemption Date. Such notice shall contain the information required by Section 3.01 (“Notices to Trustee”) hereof.

 (b) The Company shall deliver the redemption notice to the Holders within 30 days of the receipt of any Event of Loss
Proceeds. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other Pari Passu Obligations exceeds the amount of Event of Loss Proceeds, the Pari Passu Collateral Agent shall select Notes and such other Pari Passu Obligations to be redeemed on a pro rata
basis (or as near to a pro rata basis as permitted by the Applicable Procedures). All Event of Loss Proceeds received in respect of an Event of Loss shall be required to be deposited in a deposit account controlled by the Pari Passu Collateral Agent
and held as Common Collateral subject to a Lien under the Collateral Agreements pending their application to redemption of Notes and such other Pari Passu Obligations and, from such deposit account, the Pari Passu Collateral Agent may withdraw funds
to deploy the Event of Loss Proceeds in compliance with the foregoing. Other than as specifically provided in this Section 3.09, any redemption pursuant to this Section shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.01 (“Notices to
Trustee”) through 3.06 (“Notes Redeemed or Purchased in Part”) hereof. 
 Section 3.10 Offer to Purchase by Application
of Excess Proceeds. 
 In the event that, pursuant to Section 4.18 (“Asset Sales”) hereof, the Company shall
be required to commence an Asset Sale Offer (the “Offer to Purchase”), it will follow the procedures specified below and in Sections 4.18(c), (d), (e) and (f) (“Asset Sales”): 

(a) The Offer to Purchase shall be made to all Holders and all holders of other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes
containing provisions similar to those set forth in this Indenture with respect to offers to purchase or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets. 
 (b) The Offer to Purchase will remain open for a period of at least 20 Business Days following its commencement and not more than 30 Business Days, except to the extent that a longer period is required by
applicable law (the “Offer Period”). 
 (c) No later than three Business Days after the termination of the
Offer Period (the “Purchase Date”), the Company will apply all Excess Proceeds (the “Offer Amount”) to the purchase of Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness (on a pro rata basis, if applicable)
or, if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes and other Indebtedness tendered in response to the Offer to Purchase. Payment for any Notes so purchased will be made in the same manner as interest payments are made. 

  
 56 

 (d) If the Purchase Date is on or after a Record Date and on or before the related Interest
Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest will be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such Record Date, and no additional interest will be payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the Offer to
Purchase. 
 (e) Upon the commencement of an Offer to Purchase, the Company will send, by first class mail, a notice to the
Trustee and each of the Holders. The notice will contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender Notes pursuant to the Offer to Purchase. The notice, which will govern the terms of the Offer to Purchase, will state:

(“Asset Sales”) hereof and the length of time such Offer to Purchase will remain open; 
 (2) the Offer
Amount, the purchase price and the Purchase Date; 
 (3) that any Note not tendered or accepted for payment will
continue to accrue interest; 
 (4) that, unless the Company defaults in making such payment, any Note accepted
for payment pursuant to such Offer to Purchase will cease to accrue interest after the Purchase Date; 
 (5) that
Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to such Offer to Purchase may elect to have Notes purchased in amounts not less than $2,000 and, thereafter, in integral multiples of $1,000 only; 

(6) that Holders electing to have Notes purchased pursuant to such Offer to Purchase will be required to surrender the
Note, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to the Notes completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Company, a Depositary, if appointed by the Company, or a Paying Agent at the address specified in
the notice at least three days before the Purchase Date; 
 (7) that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their
election if the Paying Agent receives, not later than the expiration of the Offer Period, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Note the Holder delivered for purchase
and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Note purchased; 
 (8) that, if the
aggregate principal amount of Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness surrendered by Holders thereof exceeds the Offer Amount, the Trustee will select the Notes and the Company will select other pari passu Indebtedness to be purchased
on a pro rata basis based on the principal amount of Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness surrendered (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Company so that no Note of $2,000 or less can be redeemed in part
and that minimum denominations of $1,000 in excess thereof are maintained); and 
 (9) that Holders whose Notes
were purchased only in part will be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered (or transferred by book-entry transfer). 

  
 57 

 On or before the Purchase Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful, accept for payment,
on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the Offer Amount of Notes or portions thereof tendered pursuant to the Offer to Purchase, or if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered, and will deliver or cause to be
delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Company in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.10 and
Section 4.18 (“Asset Sales”). The Company, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, will promptly (but in any case not later than five days after the Purchase Date) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder an amount
equal to the purchase price of the Notes tendered by such Holder and accepted by the Company for purchase, and the Company will promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order from the Company, will authenticate
and mail or deliver (or cause to be transferred by book entry) such new Note to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered. Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the
Company to the Holder thereof. The Company will publicly announce the results of the Offer to Purchase on the Purchase Date. 

(f) Other than as specifically provided in this Section 3.10, any redemption pursuant to this Section 3.10 shall be made
pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.01 (“Notices to Trustee”) through 3.06 (“Notes Redeemed or Purchased in Part”) hereof. 
 The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in
connection with each repurchase of Notes pursuant to any Offer to Purchase. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Section 3.10 or Section 4.18 (“Asset Sales”)
of this Indenture, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 3.10 or Section 4.18 (“Asset Sales”) of this Indenture by
virtue of such conflict. 
 ARTICLE 4

 provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to preserve any such right, license or franchise, or the corporate, partnership or other existence of any of its Subsidiaries, if
the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and that the loss thereof would not have a material
adverse effect on the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

appropriate proceedings or where the failure to effect such payment is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders of the Notes. 

Section 4.06 Stay, Extension and Usury Laws. 
 The Company and each of the Guarantors covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or
advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company and each of the Guarantors (to the extent that it may
lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit
the execution of every such power as though no such law has been enacted.

 Section 4.07 Restricted Payments. 

(a) The Company will not, and neither Parent nor the Company will permit any of the Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly:

 (1) declare or pay any dividend or make any other payment or distribution on account of Equity Interests of
the Company, any Restricted Subsidiary or any direct or indirect parent of the Company (including, without limitation, any payment in connection with any merger or consolidation involving the Company or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries) or to the
direct or indirect holders of the Company’s, any of the Restricted Subsidiaries’ or any direct or indirect parent of the Company’s Equity Interests in their capacity as such (other than dividends or distributions payable in Equity
Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Company and other than dividends or distributions payable to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary); 
 (2) purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire or retire for value (including, without limitation, in connection with any merger or consolidation involving the Company) any Equity Interests of the Company or
any direct or indirect parent of the Company; 
 (3) make any payment on or with respect to, or purchase, redeem,
defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value any Indebtedness of Parent, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Guarantor that is contractually subordinated to the Notes or to any Note Guarantee (excluding any intercompany
Indebtedness between or among Parent, the Company and any of such Restricted Subsidiaries that are Guarantors), except a payment of regularly scheduled interest or principal at the Stated Maturity thereof; or 

(4) make any Restricted Investment 
 (all such payments and other actions set forth in these clauses (1) through (4) above being collectively referred to as “Restricted Payments”), 

unless, at the time of and after giving effect to such Restricted Payment: 

(1) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur as a consequence of such Restricted
Payment; 
 (2) the Company would, at the time of such Restricted Payment and after giving pro forma
effect thereto as if such Restricted Payment had been made on the first day of the applicable four-quarter period, have been permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio test set
forth in Section 4.08(a)(2) (“Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock”) hereof; and 
 (3) such Restricted Payment, together with the aggregate amount of all other Restricted Payments made by the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries since the date of this Indenture (excluding Restricted
Payments permitted by clauses (2), (3), (4), (9) and (10) of subsection (b) of this Section 4.07), is less than the sum, without duplication, of: 

(A) 50% of the Consolidated Net Income of the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries on a combined or consolidated
basis, as the case may be, for the period (taken as one accounting period) from the first day of the first fiscal 

  
 61 

 
quarter commencing after the Issue Date to the end of the Company’s most recently ended fiscal quarter for which internal financial statements are available at the time of such Restricted
Payment (or, if such Consolidated Net Income for such period is a deficit, less 100% of such deficit); plus 
 (B) 100% of the aggregate net cash proceeds received by the Company since the date of this Indenture as a contribution to its common equity capital or from the issue or sale of Equity Interests of the
Company (other than Disqualified Stock) or from the issue or sale of convertible or exchangeable Disqualified Stock or convertible or exchangeable debt securities of the Company that have been converted into or exchanged for such Equity Interests
(other than Equity Interests (or Disqualified Stock or debt securities) sold to a Subsidiary of the Company); plus 
 (C) to the extent that any Restricted Investment that was made after the date of this Indenture is sold for cash or otherwise liquidated or repaid for cash, the lesser of (i) the cash return of
capital with respect to such Restricted Investment (less the cost of disposition, if any) and (ii) the initial amount of such Restricted Investment; plus 

(D) to the extent that any Unrestricted Subsidiary designated as such after the date of this Indenture is redesignated as
a Restricted Subsidiary after the date of this Indenture, the lesser of (i) the Fair Market Value of Parent’s or the Company’s Investment in such Subsidiary, as the case may be, as of the date of such redesignation or (ii) such
Fair Market Value as of the date on which such Subsidiary was originally designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary after the date of this Indenture; plus 
 (E) 50% of any dividends received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary after the date of this Indenture from an Unrestricted Subsidiary, to the extent that such dividends were not otherwise
included in the Consolidated Net Income of the Company for such period; plus 
 (F) $25.0 million.

 (b) So long as no Default has occurred and is continuing or would be caused thereby, the preceding provisions will not
prohibit: 
 (1) the payment of any dividend or distribution or the consummation of any irrevocable redemption
within 60 days after the date of declaration of the dividend or distribution or giving of the redemption notice, as the case may be, if at the date of declaration or notice, the dividend, distribution or redemption payment would have complied with
the provisions of this Indenture; 
 (2) the making of any Restricted Payment in exchange for, or out of the net
cash proceeds of the sale (other than to a Subsidiary of the Company) of, Equity Interests of the Company (other than Disqualified Stock) or from the contribution of common equity capital to the Company, in each case, within 180 days of such
exchange, sale or 

  
 62 

 
contribution; provided that the amount of any such net cash proceeds that are utilized for any such Restricted Payment will be excluded from clause (3)(B) of the preceding paragraph;

 (3) the repurchase, redemption, defeasance or other acquisition or retirement for value of Indebtedness of the
Company or any Restricted Subsidiary that is contractually subordinated to the Notes or to any Note Guarantee with the net cash proceeds from a substantially concurrent incurrence of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; 

(4) the payment of any dividend (or, in the case of any partnership or limited liability company, any similar
distribution) by a Restricted Subsidiary to the holders of its Equity Interests on a pro rata basis; 

(5) the declaration and payment of regularly scheduled or accrued dividends to holders of any class or series of
Disqualified Stock of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary issued after the date of this Indenture in accordance with the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio test set forth in Section 4.08(a)(2) (“Incurrence of Indebtedness and
Issuance of Preferred Stock”); 
 (6) repurchases of Equity Interests deemed to occur upon exercise of stock
options or warrants if such Equity Interests represent a portion of the exercise price of such options or warrants; 
 (7) Restricted Payments by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary to allow the payment of cash in lieu of the issuance of fractional shares upon the exercise of options or warrants or upon the
conversion or exchange of Capital Stock of any such Person; 
 (8) the repurchase, redemption or other
acquisition or retirement for value of any Equity Interests of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary held by any current or former officer, director or employee of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries pursuant to any equity
subscription agreement, severance agreement, stock option agreement, shareholders’ agreement or similar agreement; provided that the aggregate price paid for all such repurchased, redeemed, acquired or retired Equity Interests may not
exceed $2.0 million in any twelve-month period (with any portion of such $2.0 million that is unused in any twelve-month period to be carried forward to successive twelve-month periods and added to such amount); 

(9) Permitted Parent Payments; and 

(10) Permitted Operating Expense and Tax Reimbursements. 

(c) The amount of all Restricted Payments (other than cash) will be the Fair Market Value on the date of the Restricted Payment of the
asset(s) or securities proposed to be transferred or issued by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to the Restricted Payment. The Fair Market Value of any assets or securities that are required to be valued by
this Section will be determined by the Board of Directors of Parent whose 

  
 63 

 
resolution with respect thereto will be delivered to the Trustee. Such Board of Directors’ determination must be based upon an opinion or appraisal issued by an accounting, appraisal or
investment banking firm of national standing if the Fair Market Value exceeds 3.5% of Parent’s Consolidated Tangible Assets. 

Section 4.08 Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock. 

(a) Neither Parent nor the Company will, and neither of them will permit any of the Restricted Subsidiaries or any Other Guarantor to,
directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect to (collectively, “incur”) any Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), none
of Parent, the Company, any of the Restricted Subsidiaries or any Other Guarantor will issue any Disqualified Stock, and the Company will not, and neither Parent nor the Company, will permit any of the Restricted Subsidiaries or any Other Guarantor
to, issue any shares of preferred stock; provided, however, that: 
 (1) Parent or any Other Guarantor may
incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) or issue Disqualified Stock and any Other Guarantor may issue shares of preferred stock, if the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio of Parent and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, for the most
recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date on which such additional Indebtedness is incurred or such Disqualified Stock is issued, as the case may be, would have been
at least 2.0 to 1; or 
 (2) the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired
Debt) or issue Disqualified Stock or other shares of preferred stock, if the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio of the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis for the most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which
internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date on which such additional Indebtedness is incurred or such Disqualified Stock or other shares of preferred stock is issued, as the case may be, would have been at least 2.0 to
1, 
 in each case determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of the Net Proceeds
therefrom), as if the additional Indebtedness had been incurred or the Disqualified Stock or other shares of preferred stock had been issued, as the case may be, on the first day of such four-quarter period. 

(b) The provisions of Section 4.08(a) (“Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock”) hereof will not
prohibit the incurrence of any of the following items of Indebtedness (collectively, “Permitted Debt”): 
 (1) the incurrence by Parent, the Company and the Guarantors of additional Indebtedness and letters of credit under a Credit Facility (with letters of credit being deemed to have a principal amount equal
to the maximum potential liability of the Company and the Guarantors thereunder) in a maximum aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding under this clause (1) not to exceed $200.0 million; 

  
 64 

 (2) the incurrence by the Company and any Guarantor of Indebtedness
represented by (a) the Term Loan Facility (and any guarantees thereof) in an aggregate principal amount for this clause (2)(a) at any one time outstanding not to exceed $500.0 million and (b) the Second Term Loan Facility (and any
guarantees thereof) in an aggregate principal amount for this clause (2)(b) at any one time outstanding not to exceed $350.0 million; 
 (3) the incurrence by the Company and any Guarantor of Indebtedness represented by the Notes and the related Note Guarantees to be issued on the Issue Date and the exchange notes and related Note
Guarantees to be issued pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement; 
 (4) the incurrence by Parent, the
Company, any Other Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary of Existing Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness described in clauses (1), (2) and (3) of this Section 4.08(b)); 

(5) the incurrence by Parent, the Company, the Restricted Subsidiaries or any Other Guarantor of Indebtedness represented
by Capital Lease Obligations, mortgage financings or purchase money obligations, in each case, incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price or cost of design, construction, installation or improvement of property,
plant or equipment used in the business of the Company, the Restricted Subsidiaries or such Other Guarantor, provided that Parent would be able to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the ratio set forth in
Section 4.08(a)(1) after giving effect to the incurrence of any such Indebtedness pursuant to this clause (5); 
 (6) Indebtedness of (a) Parent or any Other Guarantor (b) the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries incurred and outstanding on or prior to the date on which a new Subsidiary was acquired by
Parent, any Other Guarantor, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary (other than Indebtedness incurred in contemplation of, or in connection with, the transaction or series of related transactions pursuant to which such Subsidiary became a
Subsidiary of or was otherwise acquired by Parent, an Other Guarantor, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary); provided, however, that (a) on the date that such Subsidiary is acquired by, or is merged into the Company, such
Restricted Subsidiary or such Other Guarantor, Parent or the Company, as applicable, would have been able to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the ratio set forth in clause (a)(1) or (a)(2), as the case may be, of this
Section 4.08 after giving effect to the incurrence of such Indebtedness pursuant to this clause (6); and (b) the new Subsidiary becomes a Restricted Subsidiary and a Guarantor or an Other Guarantor; 

(7) the incurrence by Parent, the Company, any Restricted Subsidiary or any Other Guarantor of Permitted Refinancing
Indebtedness in exchange for, or the Net Proceeds of which are used to renew, refund, refinance, replace, defease or discharge any Indebtedness (other than intercompany Indebtedness) that was permitted by this Indenture to be incurred under the
first paragraph of this Section or clauses (2) (3), (4), (6) or this clause (7); 

  
 65 

 (8) the incurrence by (a) the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of
intercompany Indebtedness between or among the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries or (b) Parent or any Other Guarantor of intercompany Indebtedness between or among Parent and the Other Guarantors; provided, however, that:

 (1) if (A) the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary is the obligor on such Indebtedness and the payee is not the Company
or a Restricted Subsidiary or (B) Parent or any Other Guarantor is the obligor on such Indebtedness and the payee is not Parent or an Other Guarantor, as applicable, such Indebtedness must be expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full
in cash of all Obligations then due with respect to the Notes and the Note Guarantees; and 
 (2) any (A) subsequent
issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that results in any such Indebtedness being held by a Person other than Parent, the Company, a Restricted Subsidiary or an Other Guarantor, or (B) sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a
Person that is not Parent, the Company, a Restricted Subsidiary or Other Guarantor, 
 will be deemed, in each case, to
constitute an incurrence of such Indebtedness by Parent, the Company, such Restricted Subsidiary or such Guarantor, as the case may be, that was not permitted by this clause (8); 

(9) the incurrence by Parent, the Company, any Restricted Subsidiary or an Other Guarantor of Hedging Obligations in the
ordinary course of business; 
 (10) the guarantee by Parent, the Company, any Restricted Subsidiary or any Other
Guarantor of Indebtedness of Parent, the Company, any Restricted Subsidiary or any Other Guarantor that was permitted to be incurred by another provision of this Section 4.08; provided that if the Indebtedness being guaranteed is
subordinated to or pari passu with the Notes, then the guarantee shall be subordinated or pari passu, as applicable, to the same extent as the Indebtedness guaranteed; 

(11) the incurrence by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness in respect of workers’ compensation
claims, self-insurance obligations, bankers’ acceptances, and performance and surety bonds in the ordinary course of business; 
 (12) the incurrence by Parent, the Company, any Restricted Subsidiary or any Other Guarantor of Indebtedness arising from the honoring by a bank or other financial institution of a check, draft or similar
instrument inadvertently drawn against insufficient funds, so long as such Indebtedness is covered within five Business Days; 
 (13) the incurrence by Parent, the Company, any Restricted Subsidiary or any Other Guarantor of Indebtedness arising from agreements providing for indemnification, adjustment of purchase price or similar
obligations, or guarantees or letters of credit, surety bonds or performance bonds securing any obligations of Parent, the Company, any Restricted Subsidiary or any Other Guarantor pursuant to such agreements, in any case

  
 66 

 
incurred in connection with the disposition of any business, assets or Restricted Subsidiary (other than guarantees of Indebtedness incurred by any Person acquiring all or any portion of such
business, assets or Restricted Subsidiary for the purpose of financing such acquisition), so long as the amount does not exceed the gross proceeds actually received by Parent, the Company, any Restricted Subsidiary or any Other Guarantor in
connection with such disposition; and 
 (14) the incurrence by Parent, the Company, any Restricted Subsidiary or
any Other Guarantor of additional Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) at any time outstanding, including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to renew, refund, refinance, replace, defease or
discharge any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (14), not to exceed $125.0 million. 
 None of Parent, the Company
or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries or any Other Guarantor will incur any Indebtedness (including Permitted Debt) that is contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of Parent, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary
or Other Guarantor unless such Indebtedness is also contractually subordinated in right of payment to the Notes and the applicable Note Guarantee on substantially identical terms; provided, however, that no Indebtedness will be deemed to be
contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness solely by virtue of being unsecured or by virtue of being secured on a junior Lien basis. 
 For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.08, in the event that an item of proposed Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock meets the criteria of more than one of the
categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (1) through (14) above, or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section 4.08, Parent, the Company or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary will be permitted
to divide and classify such item of Indebtedness on the date of its incurrence, or later re-divide or re-classify all or a portion of such item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock in any manner that complies with this
Section 4.08. The accrual of interest or preferred stock dividends, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest on any Indebtedness in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, the
reclassification of preferred stock as Indebtedness due to a change in accounting principles, and the payment of dividends on preferred stock in the form of shares of the same class of preferred stock, Disqualified Stock in the form of additional
shares of the same class of Disqualified Stock will be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness or an issuance of Disqualified Stock or preferred stock for purposes of this Section 4.08; provided, in each such case, that the amount of
any such accrual, accretion or payment is included in Consolidated Interest Expense of the Company as accrued. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.08, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that Parent, the Company or the
applicable Restricted Subsidiary or Other Guarantor may incur pursuant to this Section shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in exchange rates or currency values. 

The amount of any Indebtedness outstanding as of any date will be: 

(1) the accreted value of the Indebtedness, in the case of any Indebtedness issued with original issue discount;

  
 67 

 (2) the principal amount of the Indebtedness, in the case of any other
Indebtedness; and 
 (3) in respect of Indebtedness of another Person secured by a Lien on the assets of the
specified Person, the lesser of: 
 (A) the Fair Market Value of such assets at the date of determination; and

 (B) the amount of the Indebtedness of the other Person. 

Section 4.09 Liens. 

Neither Parent nor the Company will, and neither of them will permit any of the Restricted Subsidiaries or any Other Guarantor to,
directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien of any kind on any asset or property now owned or hereafter acquired that secures any Obligations under any Indebtedness (except Permitted Liens). 

Section 4.10 Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Subsidiaries. 

Neither Parent nor the Company will, and neither of them will permit any of the Restricted Subsidiaries or any Other Guarantor to,
directly or indirectly, create or permit to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any of the Restricted Subsidiaries or Other Guarantor to: 

(1) pay dividends or make any other distributions on its Capital Stock to the Company or any of the Restricted
Subsidiaries, or with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits, or pay any Indebtedness owed to the Company or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries; 

(2) make loans or advances to the Company or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries; or 

(3) sell, lease or transfer any of its properties or assets to the Company or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries.

 However, the preceding restrictions will not apply to encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of:

 (1) any Credit Facility, provided that the encumbrances and restrictions contained therein, including
any related collateral documents, and any amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings thereof are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, with respect to such dividend and other
payment restrictions than those contained in this Indenture; 
 (2) agreements governing Existing Indebtedness,
the Term Loan Facility and the Second Term Loan Facility as in effect on the Issue Date and any amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, supplements, refundings, replacements or 

  
 68 

 
refinancings of those agreements; provided that the amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings are not materially more
restrictive, taken as a whole, with respect to such dividend and other payment restrictions than those contained in those agreements on the date of this Indenture; 

(3) this Indenture, the Notes and Note Guarantees; 

(4) applicable law, rule, regulation or order; 

(5) any instrument governing Indebtedness or Equity Interests of a Person acquired by Parent, the Company, any of the
Restricted Subsidiaries or any Other Guarantor as in effect at the time of such acquisition (except to the extent such Indebtedness or Equity Interests was incurred in connection with or in contemplation of such acquisition), which encumbrance or
restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person, or the property or assets of the Person, so acquired; provided that, in the case of Indebtedness, such Indebtedness was permitted
by the terms of this Indenture to be incurred; 
 (6) customary non-assignment provisions in contracts and
licenses entered into in the ordinary course of business; 
 (7) purchase money obligations for property acquired
in the ordinary course of business, mortgage financings and Capital Lease Obligations that impose restrictions on the property purchased or mortgaged or leased of the nature described in clause (3) of the preceding paragraph; 

(8) any agreement for the sale or other disposition of any Restricted Subsidiary or Other Guarantor that restricts
distributions by that Restricted Subsidiary or Other Guarantor pending the sale or other disposition; 
 (9)
Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; provided that the restrictions contained in the agreements governing such Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in the agreements
governing the Indebtedness being refinanced; 
 (10) Liens permitted to be incurred under Section 4.09
(“Liens”) that limit the right of the debtor to dispose of the assets subject to such Liens; 
 (11)
provisions limiting the disposition or distribution of assets or property in joint venture agreements, asset sale agreements, sale-leaseback agreements, stock sale agreements and other similar agreements, which limitation is applicable only to the
assets that are the subject of such agreements; 
 (12) restrictions on cash or other deposits or net worth
imposed by customers under contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business; 

  
 69 

 (13) restrictions contained in, or in request of, Hedging Obligations
permitted to be incurred by this Indenture; and 
 (14) any customary encumbrances or restrictions imposed
pursuant to any agreement of the type described in the definition of “Permitted Investments.” 
 Section 4.11 Transactions
with Affiliates. 
 (a) Neither Parent nor the Company will, and neither of them will permit any of the Restricted
Subsidiaries or any Other Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any
transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of Parent, the Company, any Restricted Subsidiary or any Other Guarantor (each, an “Affiliate Transaction”)
unless: 
 (1) the Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to Parent, the Company, any
applicable Restricted Subsidiary or any applicable Other Guarantor than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by Parent, the Company, any applicable Restricted Subsidiary or any applicable Other Guarantor with an unrelated
Person or, if there is no such comparable transaction, on terms that are fair and reasonable to Parent, the Company, any applicable Restricted Subsidiary and any applicable Other Guarantor and reflect an arms’ length negotiation; and

 (2) Parent delivers to the Trustee: 

(A) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate
consideration in excess of $10.0 million, a resolution of the Board of Directors of Parent set forth in an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with this Section 4.11 and that such Affiliate Transaction
has been approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of Parent; and 
 (B)
with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $100.0 million, an opinion as to the fairness to Parent, the Company, any applicable Restricted Subsidiary or any
applicable Other Guarantor of such Affiliate Transaction from a financial point of view issued by an accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing. 
 (b) The following items will not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions and, therefore, will not be subject to the provisions of the prior paragraph: 

(1) any employment agreement, employee benefit plan, officer or director indemnification agreement or any similar
arrangement entered into by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business and payments pursuant thereto; 

  
 70 

 (2) payment of reasonable directors’ fees to Persons who are not
otherwise Affiliates of Parent; 
 (3) transactions between or among Parent, the Company, any of the Restricted
Subsidiaries or any Other Guarantor; 
 (4) transactions between or among Parent and/or any of its Subsidiaries
(excluding transactions involving the Company, any of the Restricted Subsidiaries or any Other Guarantor); 
 (5)
loans or advances to employees of Parent in the ordinary course of business not to exceed $5.0 million in the aggregate at any one time outstanding; 
 (6) transactions with a Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary) that is an Affiliate of the Company solely because the Company owns, directly or through a Restricted Subsidiary, an Equity Interest
in, or controls, such Person; 
 (7) Restricted Payments that do not violate Section 4.07 (“Restricted
Payments”); 
 (8) any agreement as in effect on the Issue Date or any amendments, renewals or extensions of

 (9) transactions between or among any Excluded Parent Subsidiary, on the one hand and Parent and any of its other Subsidiaries (excluding transactions involving the Company, any of the Restricted
Subsidiaries or any Other Guarantor), on the other hand, provided that such transaction is entered into in the ordinary course of business and on an arm’s length basis and that any such transaction has been approved by a majority of the
disinterested members of the Board of Directors of Parent pursuant to a resolution of the Board of Directors of Parent set forth in an Officers’ Certificate. 
 Section 4.12 Business Activities. 
 Neither Parent nor the Company
will, and neither of them will permit any of the Restricted Subsidiaries or any Other Guarantor to, engage in any business other than Permitted Businesses, except to such extent as would not be material to the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries
taken as a whole. 
 Section 4.13 Additional Note Guarantees. 

If (a) the Company or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries acquire or create another Subsidiary, (b) Parent acquires or creates
another Subsidiary to directly or indirectly own the Equity Interests of the Company, any of the Restricted Subsidiaries or any Other Guarantor, (c) any Subsidiary of the Company that is not already a Guarantor guarantees any Credit Facility,
the Term Loan Facility, the Second Term Loan Facility or any other Pari Passu Obligation or owns any Vessel, (d) any Subsidiary of Parent or the Company that is not already a Guarantor is the subject of a Contract Winning Trigger or
(e) any Subsidiary of Parent or the Company that is not already a Guarantor becomes an Internal Charterer, after the Issue Date, then Parent or the Company, as applicable, will: 

(1) cause that Subsidiary to 
 (A) execute a supplemental indenture and a Note Guarantee pursuant to which it will become a Guarantor, 

  
 71 

 (B) execute amendments to or otherwise accede to or join the Collateral

 (C) execute an amendment to the Registration Rights Agreement to join that agreement in the
same way and capacity as the other Guarantors; 
 and 

(2) deliver an Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory in form to the Trustee, in each case within 20 Business Days of
the date on which the Subsidiary was acquired or created or otherwise becomes subject to this Section; provided that any applicable Subsidiary may be released from its Note Guarantee and related pledge following the occurrence of a Contract
Unwind Trigger provided the conditions to that release are satisfied. 
 In addition, to the extent any such Subsidiary
(a) is not already a direct or indirect Subsidiary of the Company and (b) does not constitute an Other Guarantor, Parent shall cause the Equity Interests of such Subsidiary to be transferred to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary within
20 Business Days of such Subsidiary executing a Note Guarantee or as soon as practicable where applicable local law requires additional time for compliance with applicable legal requirements. 
 Section 4.14 Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries. 

(a) The Board of Directors of Parent may designate any Restricted Subsidiary to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if: 

(1) the Company could make the Restricted Payment which is deemed to occur upon such designation in accordance with
Section 4.07 (“Restricted Payments”) equal to the appropriate Fair Market Value of all outstanding Investments owned by Parent, the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries in such Subsidiary at the time of such designation;

 (2) such Restricted Subsidiary meets the definition of an “Unrestricted Subsidiary”; 

  
 72 

 (3) the designation would not constitute or cause (with or without the
passage of time) a Default or Event of Default or no Default or Event of Default would be in existence following such designation; and 
 (4) the Company delivers to the Trustee a certified copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors of Parent giving effect to such designation and an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such
designation complied with the preceding conditions and was permitted by Section 4.07 (“Restricted Payments”). 

If a Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate Fair Market Value of all outstanding Investments
owned by Parent, the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation and will reduce the amount available for Restricted
Payments under Section 4.07 (“Restricted Payments”) or under one or more clauses of the definition of Permitted Investments, as determined by the Company. 
 If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary designated as such would fail to meet the preceding requirements as an Unrestricted Subsidiary or any other Unrestricted Subsidiary would fail to meet the
definition of an “Unrestricted Subsidiary,” then such Subsidiary will thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of this Indenture and any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary will be deemed to be incurred by a Restricted
Subsidiary as of such date and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred as of such date under Section 4.08 (“Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock”), the Company or the applicable Restricted
Subsidiary will be in default of such covenant. 
 In connection with the occurrence of a Contract Unwind Trigger, Parent or the
Company may cause an applicable Restricted Subsidiary to be designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary if it meets the conditions set forth in this clause (a) of Section 4.14. 

(b) The Board of Directors of Parent may at any time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary or Subsidiary of Parent to be a Restricted
Subsidiary if: 
 (1) the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries could incur the Indebtedness which is deemed to
be incurred upon such designation under Section 4.08 (“Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock”), equal to the total Indebtedness of such Subsidiary calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had
occurred on the first day of the four-quarter reference period; 
 (2) the designation would not constitute or
cause a Default or Event of Default; and 
 (3) the Company delivers to the Trustee a certified copy of a
resolution of the Board of Directors of Parent giving effect to such designation and an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such designation complied with the preceding conditions, including the incurrence of Indebtedness under
Section 4.08 (“Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock”). 

  
 73 

 Parent or the Company shall be required to designate each applicable Subsidiary to become a
Restricted Subsidiary and a Guarantor and pledge its assets and property as Collateral pursuant to Section 4.13 (“Additional Note Guarantees”) and shall be required to comply with the conditions set forth in this clause (b) of
this Section 4.14 in connection therewith within 20 Business Days or as soon as practicable where applicable local law requires additional time for compliance with applicable legal requirements. For the avoidance of doubt, no direct or indirect
Subsidiary of Parent may become a Restricted Subsidiary for purposes of this Indenture if such Subsidiary is a Subsidiary of Parent but not the Company. 
 Section 4.15 Payments for Consent. 
 Neither Parent nor the Company
will, and neither of them will permit any of the Restricted Subsidiaries, any Other Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates to, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration to or for the benefit of any Holder for or as
an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture or the Notes unless such consideration is offered to be paid and is paid to all Holders of the Notes that consent, waive or agree to amend in the
time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement. 
 Section 4.16 Reports.

 (a) Whether or not required by the rules and regulations of the SEC, so long as any Notes are outstanding, Parent or the
Company will furnish to the Holders or cause the Trustee to furnish to the Holders of Global Notes, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations: 

(1) all quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and annual reports on Form 10-K that would be required to be filed with the SEC on
such forms if Parent or the Company were required to file such reports under the Exchange Act; 
 (2) all current
reports on Form 8-K that would be required to be filed with the SEC on such form if Parent or the Company were required to file such reports under the Exchange Act; and 

(3) in a footnote to Parent’s financial statements included in quarterly or annual reports to be filed or furnished
pursuant to clauses (1) and (2) of this Section 4.16(a), the financial information required to comply with Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act. 
 All such reports will be prepared in all material respects in accordance with all of the rules and regulations applicable to such reports. Each annual report on Form 10-K will include a report on the
Company’s consolidated financial statements by Parent’s certified independent accountants. In addition, Parent will post the reports on its website within the time periods specified in the rules and regulations applicable to such reports
and Parent will file a copy of each of the reports referred to in clauses (1) and (2) of this Section 4.16(a) with the SEC for public availability within those time periods (unless the SEC will not accept such a filing). Parent and
the Company will be deemed to have furnished such reports referred to above to the Trustee and Holders if Parent has filed such reports with the SEC via the EDGAR filing system (or any successor system) and such reports are publicly available.

  
 74 

 If at any time the Company is no longer subject to the periodic reporting requirements of
the Exchange Act for any reason, Parent or the Company will nevertheless continue filing the reports specified in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 4.16(a) with the SEC within the time periods specified by the SEC for registrants that
are non-accelerated filers unless the SEC will not accept such a filing. Neither Parent nor the Company will take any action for the purpose of causing the SEC not to accept any such filings. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, the SEC will not
accept Parent’s or the Company’s filings for any reason, Parent or the Company will post the reports referred to in the preceding paragraphs on its website within the time periods that would apply to non-accelerated filers if Parent or the
Company were required to file those reports with the SEC. 
 (b) The quarterly and annual reports and financial information
required by the preceding paragraphs will include a Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (the “MD&A”) of Parent, which shall include a discussion and analysis of the Company
and the Restricted Subsidiaries. If the Board of Directors of Parent has designated any of the Restricted Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries, then the quarterly and annual financial information required by the preceding paragraphs will
include a reasonably detailed presentation, either on the face of the financial statements or in the footnotes thereto, and also in the MD&A, of the financial condition and results of operations of the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries
separate from the financial condition and results of operations of the Unrestricted Subsidiaries. 
 Parent agrees that, for so
long as any Notes remain outstanding, it will use commercially reasonable efforts to hold and participate in quarterly conference calls with Holders of the Notes and securities analysts relating to the financial condition and results of operations
of Parent, the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries. 
 (c) In addition, the Company and the Guarantors agree that, for so
long as any Notes remain outstanding, if at any time they are not required to file with the SEC the reports required by the preceding paragraphs, they will furnish to the Holders and to securities analysts and prospective investors, upon their
request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act. 
 (d) Delivery of such
reports, information and documents to the Trustee shall be for informational purposes only, and the Trustee’s receipt thereof shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information
contained therein, including Parent or the Company, compliance with any of their covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on officers’ certificates). 

(e) Documents filed by us with the SEC via the EDGAR system will be deemed filed with the Trustee as of the time such documents are filed
via EDGAR. Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only, and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable
from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of their covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on officers’ certificates). 

  
 75 

 Section 4.17 Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control. 

(a) If a Change of Control occurs, each Holder will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal to a
minimum amount of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000) of that Holder’s Notes pursuant to a change of control offer (a “Change of Control Offer”) on the terms set forth in this Indenture. In the Change of Control Offer, the
Company shall offer a payment (the “Change of Control Payment”) in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes repurchased to the date of purchase, subject
to the rights of Holders on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date. Within ten Business Days following any Change of Control, the Company shall send a notice to the Trustee and each Holder describing
the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control and stating: 
 (1) that the Change of
Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 4.17 and that all Notes tendered will be accepted for payment; 
 (2) the purchase price and the purchase date, which shall be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is sent (the “Change of Control Payment Date”);

 (3) that any Note not tendered will continue to accrue interest; 

(4) that, unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Payment, all Notes accepted for payment
pursuant to the Change of Control Offer will cease to accrue interest after the Change of Control Payment Date; 

(5) that Holders electing to have any Notes purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender
the Notes, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to the Notes completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the
third Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date; 
 (6) that Holders will be entitled to withdraw
their election if the Paying Agent receives, not later than the close of business on the second Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the
principal amount of Notes delivered for purchase, and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have the Notes purchased; and 
 (7) that Holders whose Notes are being purchased only in part will be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, which unpurchased portion must be
equal to $2,000 in principal amount and integral multiples of $1,000. 

  
 76 

 The Company shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any
other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or
regulations conflict with the provisions of this Indenture, the Company shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture by virtue
of such compliance. 
 (b) On or before the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company shall, to the extent lawful: 

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

 (2) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or
portions of Notes properly tendered; and 
 (3) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes
properly accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Company. 
 The Paying Agent shall promptly send to each Holder properly tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book
entry) to each Holder a Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided that each such Note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or in integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The
Company shall publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date. 
 The provisions described above that require the Company to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control will be applicable whether or not any other provisions of this Indenture are
applicable. 
 The Company shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if (1) a third
party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and purchases all Notes properly tendered
and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer, or (2) notice of redemption has been given pursuant to this Indenture as described above under Article 3 unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price.

 Section 4.18 Asset Sales. 
 (a) The Company shall not, and neither Parent nor the Company shall permit any of the Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, consummate any Asset Sale unless: 

(1) Parent, the Company or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at the time of the Asset
Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of; 

  
 77 

 (2) at least 75% of the consideration received in the Asset Sale by Parent,
the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of cash; provided, however, (i) to the extent that any disposition in such Asset Sale was of Collateral, the non-cash consideration received is pledged as Collateral under the
Collateral Agreements contemporaneously with such sale, in accordance with the requirements set forth in this Indenture and (ii) any Vessel Asset Sale in respect of a Deepwater Vessel shall not be permitted until the Tungsten Explorer Delivery
Date has occurred; and 
 (3) in the case of a Vessel Asset Sale of a Deepwater Vessel, Parent would, immediately
after giving pro forma effect thereto, including the application of the net proceeds therefrom, as if the same had occurred on the first day of the applicable four-quarter period, (A) be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional
Indebtedness pursuant to the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio test set forth in Section 4.08(a)(1) (“Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock”), or (B) have a Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio that is no
worse than the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio immediately prior to such Vessel Asset Sale. 
 For purposes of this
Section 4.18, each of the following will be deemed to be cash: 
 (A) any liabilities, as shown on the
Company’s most recent consolidated balance sheet, of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any Note Guarantee) that are assumed by the
transferee of any such assets so long as the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary are released from further liability; 
 (B) any securities, Notes or other obligations received by the Company or any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash
within 180 days of the receipt thereof, to the extent of the cash received in that conversion; 
 (C) any stock
or assets of the kind referred to in clauses (2) or (4) of paragraph (b) of this Section 4.18; and 
 (D) any Designated Non-cash Consideration, when taken together with all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (D) that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed 5%
of the Company’s Consolidated Tangible Assets at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-cash Consideration (with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Non-cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without
giving effect to subsequent changes in value). 
 Any Asset Sale pursuant to an Involuntary Transfer shall not be required to
satisfy the conditions set forth in clauses (1), (2) and (3) of this Section 4.18(a). 

  
 78 

 (b) Within 360 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale (including,
without limitation, an Involuntary Transfer), Parent, the Company or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, may apply such Net Proceeds: 
 (1) to repay Indebtedness of the Company or the Restricted Subsidiaries, including Notes and permanent reductions of Obligations under any Credit Facility (and, if the Indebtedness repaid is revolving
credit Indebtedness, to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto); 
 (2) to acquire all or
substantially all of the assets of, or any Capital Stock of, another Permitted Business of the Company, if, after giving effect to any such acquisition of Capital Stock, such Permitted Business is or becomes a Restricted Subsidiary; 

(3) to make a capital expenditure for the Company or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries; or 

(4) to acquire other assets that are not classified as current assets under GAAP and that are used or useful in the
Company’s Permitted Business; 
 provided that clauses (2) through (4) above shall be deemed to be satisfied if a bona
fide binding contract committing to make the investment, acquisition or expenditure referred to herein is entered into by Parent, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, with a Person within such 360-day period and such Net
Proceeds are subsequently applied in accordance with such contract within one year and six months following the date of such Asset Sale. In the event any such contract is later cancelled or terminated for any reason before the Net Proceeds are
applied in connection therewith, then such Net Proceeds must be applied as set forth herein and if such termination or cancellation occurs later than the 360-day period, shall constitute Excess Proceeds as set forth in Section 4.18(c).

 (c) Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in paragraph (b) of this
Section 4.18 will constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $20.0 million, the Company shall, within ten (10) Business Days thereof, make an offer (the “Asset Sale
Offer”) to all Holders and all holders of other Pari Passu Obligations containing provisions similar to those set forth in this Indenture with respect to offers to purchase or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets to purchase the
maximum principal amount of Notes and such other Pari Passu Obligations that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds. 
 (d)
The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase, and will be payable in cash. 
 (e) If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the Company may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture and the Collateral
Agreements; provided that pending any such application, the proceeds of the Asset Sale, whether assets, property or cash, are subject to a Lien under the Collateral Agreements. 

(f) If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other Pari Passu Obligations tendered into such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of
Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes and the Company shall select such other Pari Passu Obligations to be purchased on a pro rata basis, provided that applicable denominations of the Notes are preserved. Upon completion
of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero. 

  
 79 

 The Company shall not, and neither Parent nor the Company shall permit any Restricted
Subsidiary to, enter into or suffer to exist any agreement that would place any restriction of any kind (other than pursuant to law or regulation) on the ability of the Company to make an Asset Sale Offer. 

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

 Section 4.19 Impairment of Security Interest. 
 Neither the Company nor any Guarantor shall be permitted to take any action, or omit to take any action, which action or omission might or would have the result of materially impairing the security
interest with respect to the Collateral for the benefit of the Pari Passu Collateral Agent, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes except as expressly set forth in this Indenture or the Collateral Agreements. Neither the Company nor the Guarantors
shall be permitted to take any action or otherwise attempt to enforce any claim or maritime Lien against any Vessel that has priority over any claim or Lien of the Pari Passu Collateral Agent, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes in respect of
any Collateral, including any such claims or Liens arising under Ship Mortgages. 
 Any release of Collateral in accordance with
Section 12.03 (“Release of Collateral”) and the Collateral Agreements will not be deemed to impair the security under this Indenture, and any appraiser or other expert may rely on such provision in delivering a certificate requesting
release so long as all other provisions of this Indenture with respect to such release have been complied with. 
 Section 4.20
Withholding Taxes 
 (a) All payments made on behalf of the Company or any Guarantor under or with respect to the Notes
or the Note Guarantees must be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future tax, duty, levy, impost, assessment or other governmental charge (including penalties, interest and other
liabilities related thereto) imposed or levied by or on behalf of any Specified Tax Jurisdiction or by any authority or agency therein or thereof having power to tax (or the jurisdiction of incorporation or organization of any successor of the
Company or any Guarantor) (hereinafter “Taxes”), unless the Company or the applicable Guarantor, as applicable, are so required to withhold or deduct Taxes by law or by the interpretation or administration thereof by the relevant
government authority or agency. 

  
 80 

 (b) If the Company or any Guarantor (or any successor of any of them), as applicable, are so
required to withhold or deduct any amount for or on account of Taxes from any payment made under or with respect to the Notes or the Note Guarantee, the Company or such Guarantor (or any successor of any of them), as applicable, will be required to
pay such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary so that the net amount received by each Holder (including Additional Amounts) after such withholding or deduction will not be less than the amount the Holder
would have received if such Taxes had not been withheld or deducted; provided, however, that no Additional Amounts will be payable with respect to payments made to a Holder (an “Excluded Holder”) in respect of a
beneficial owner: 
 (1) which is subject to such Taxes by reason of its being connected with any Specified Tax
Jurisdiction otherwise than by the mere holding of Notes or the receipt of payments thereunder (or under the related Note Guarantee); 
 (2) which presents any Note for payment of principal more than 30 days after the later of (x) the date on which payment first became due and (y) if the full amount payable has not been received
by the Trustee on or prior to such due date, the date on which, the full amount payable having been so received, notice to that effect shall have been given to the Holders by the Trustee, except to the extent that the Holder would have been entitled
to such Additional Amounts on presenting such Note for payment on the last day of the applicable 30-day period; 

(3) which failed duly and timely to comply with a reasonable, timely request of the Company to provide information,
documents or other evidence concerning the Holder’s nationality, residence, entitlement to treaty benefits, identity or connection with any Specified Tax Jurisdiction or any political subdivision or authority thereof, if and to the extent that
due and timely compliance with such request would have reduced or eliminated any Taxes as to which Additional Amounts would have otherwise been payable to such Holder but for this clause (3); 

(4) on account of any estate, inheritance, gift, sale, transfer, personal property or other similar Tax; 

(5) which is a fiduciary, a partnership or not the beneficial owner of any payment on a Note, if and to the extent that
any beneficiary or settlor of such fiduciary, any partner in such partnership or the beneficial owner of such payment (as the case may be) would not have been entitled to receive Additional Amounts with respect to such payment if such beneficiary,
settlor, partner or beneficial owner had been the Holder of such Note; 
 (6) on account of Taxes imposed on a
payment to an individual and required to be made pursuant to the European Union Directive on the taxation of savings, which was adopted on June 3, 2003, or any law implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to, that
directive; 

  
 81 

 (7) to the extent the Additional Amount relates to any Taxes imposed on a
Note presented for payment by or on behalf of a Holder who would have been able to avoid that withholding or deduction by presenting the relevant Note to another Paying Agent in a member state of the European Union; or 

(8) any combination of the foregoing numbered clauses of this Section. 

(c) The Company or any applicable Guarantor (or any successor of any of them), as applicable, will also make such withholding or
deduction and remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant authority as and when required in accordance with applicable law. The Company or any applicable Guarantor (or any successor of any of them), as applicable, will furnish to the
Trustee, within 30 days after the date the payment of any Taxes is due pursuant to applicable law, copies of tax receipts evidencing such payment by the Company or such Guarantor (or any successor of any of them), as applicable: 

(1) in such form as provided in the normal course by the taxing authority imposing such Taxes and as is reasonably
available to the Company or such Guarantor (or any successor of any of them), as applicable; and 
 (2) certified
by such taxing authority (or, if no such certification is available from such taxing authority, then by means of an Officers’ Certificate from the Company or such Guarantor (or any successor of any of them), as applicable). 

The Trustee shall thereafter make such evidence available to the Holders upon written request. 

(d) The Company or any Guarantor (or any successor of any of them), as applicable, will upon written request of each Holder (other than
an Excluded Holder), reimburse each such Holder for the amount of: 
 (1) any Taxes so levied or imposed and paid
by such Holder as a result of payments made under or with respect to the Notes, the Note Guarantee or a mortgaged Vessel, as applicable; and 
 (2) any Taxes imposed with respect to any such reimbursement under the immediately preceding clause (1), but excluding any Taxes on such Holder’s net income, so that the net amount received by such
Holder after such reimbursement will not be less than the net amount the Holder would have received if Taxes (other than such Taxes on such Holder’s net income) on such reimbursement had not been imposed. 

(e) Whenever in this Indenture there is mentioned, in any context, (i) the payment of principal, (ii) purchase or redemption
prices in connection with a purchase or redemption of Notes, (iii) interest or (iv) any other amount payable on or with respect to any of the Notes, or any payment pursuant to the Note Guarantee, such mention shall be deemed to include
mention of the payment of Additional Amounts provided for in this section to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof. 

(f) The foregoing obligations shall survive any defeasance or discharge of this Indenture. 

  
 82 

 (g) The Company or the Guarantors will pay any present or future stamp, court or documentary
taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies that arise in any jurisdiction from the execution, delivery, enforcement or registration of the Notes, the Note Guarantee or a Mortgage or other Collateral Agreement or any other
document or instrument in relation thereto, or the receipt of any payments with respect to the Notes, the Note Guarantee or a Mortgage or other Security Agreement, excluding such taxes, charges or similar levies imposed by any jurisdiction outside
of any Specified Tax Jurisdiction, the jurisdiction of incorporation of any successor of the Company or any jurisdiction in which a Paying Agent is located, and has agreed to indemnify the Holders for any such taxes paid by such Holders. 

Section 4.21 Vessel Transfers and Partial Vessel Sales. 
 (a) The Company and the Guarantors shall be permitted to transfer all of the legal title to a Vessel from one existing Guarantor to another existing Guarantor (or to an entity that simultaneously with
such transfer becomes a Guarantor) subject to all of the existing security covering such Vessel remaining in place and upon completion of the following: 
 (1) the Company shall give the Pari Passu Collateral Agent written notice of any such proposed transfer not fewer than 30 days prior to the anticipated date of such transfer; 

(2) the bill of sale or other instrument of transfer will explicitly state that the transfer is subject to the assumption
or continuance of the existing Ship Mortgage in full force and effect; 
 (3) the relevant Vessel will be duly
re-registered in the name of the transferee Guarantor under the laws and flag of the relevant jurisdiction simultaneously with such transfer and evidence thereof delivered to the Pari Passu Collateral Agent on such date; 

(4) if appropriate in the opinion of the legal counsel described in clause (7) of this Section 4.21, an
instrument of assumption of mortgage will be executed by the transferee Guarantor and the Pari Passu Collateral Agent and registered promptly with such transfer with the appropriate authorities of the Vessel’s jurisdiction of registry, or any
such other instrument required to perfect a Ship Mortgage in favor of the Pari Passu Collateral Agent as required by the Vessel’s jurisdiction of registry; 
 (5) simultaneously with such transfer, the transferee Guarantor shall acknowledge in writing to the Pari Passu Collateral Agent that the Ship Mortgage and all other Collateral relating to the Vessel
remains in full force and effect and is ratified and confirmed by the transferee Guarantor; 
 (6) on the same
date of such transfer, the Company and the transferee Guarantor shall deliver to the Pari Passu Collateral Agent a certificate of ownership and encumbrance or similar certificate issued by the jurisdiction of registration of the Vessel evidencing
re-registration in the name of the transferee Guarantor and the continuance of the Ship Mortgage in favor of the Pari Passu Collateral Agent; and 

  
 83 

 (7) the Company shall cause to be delivered to the Pari Passu Collateral
Agent on the same date of such transfer a legal opinion from outside counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Pari Passu Collateral Agent to the following effect (i) the Vessel is duly registered (preliminarily registered if the jurisdiction is
Panama) in the name of the transferee Guarantor with the appropriate authorities of the Vessel’s jurisdiction of registry; (ii) the Ship Mortgage constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the transferee Guarantor and remains
duly registered as a first priority Lien or ship mortgage in favor of the Pari Passu Collateral Agent with priority dating back to the date on which such Ship Mortgage was initially registered in favor of the Pari Passu Collateral Agent;
(iii) an assumption of the Ship Mortgage by the transferee Guarantor has been duly registered (preliminarily registered if the jurisdiction is Panama) (or an opinion that such an assumption is not required to maintain the status of the mortgage
or the assumption by the transferee Guarantor of all obligations of the mortgagor thereunder); (iv) all Collateral relating to the Vessel constitutes legal, valid and binding obligations of the transferee Guarantor; (v) all filings and
consents in the relevant jurisdictions have been obtained or made; and (vi) such transfer is in compliance with the terms of this Indenture. Such legal opinion shall also contain such other opinions as are requested by the Pari Passu Collateral
Agent and otherwise be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Pari Passu Collateral Agent. The counsel issuing such opinion may rely on local counsel admitted to practice in the jurisdiction of registration of the Vessel with respect
to matters governed by the laws of such jurisdiction. If the vessel transferred is registered under the laws and flag of Panama, the Company shall also deliver to the Pari Passu Collateral Agent an opinion of Panamanian counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the Pari Passu Collateral Agent not later than five (5) months after the date of transfer confirming that such Vessel has been permanently registered in the name of the transferee Guarantor and that any assumption of Ship
Mortgage or other instrument required to be filed has been permanently recorded. 
 (b) The Company and the Guarantors shall be
permitted to transfer partial interests in a Vessel in a transaction that complies with the terms of this Indenture, including Section 4.07 (“Restricted Payments”), Section 4.18 (“Asset Sales”) and Section 5.01
(“Merger, Consolidation, or Sale of Assets”) and upon completion of the following: 
 (1) the Company
shall give the Pari Passu Collateral Agent written notice of any such proposed transfer not fewer than 30 days prior to the anticipated date of such transfer; 
 (2) any bill of sale or other instrument of partial transfer shall state on its face that the interest transferred is subject to the lien of the relevant Ship Mortgage; 

(3) the relevant Vessel will be duly re-registered in the joint names of the transferor Guarantor and the transferee
showing the individual percentage interest held by each under the laws and flag of the relevant jurisdiction simultaneously with such transfer and evidence thereof delivered to the Pari Passu Collateral Agent on such date; 

  
 84 

 (4) simultaneously with such transfer the transferee will acknowledge in
writing to the Pari Passu Collateral Agent that it takes its interest subject to the Ship Mortgage; 
 (5) on the

 Section 4.23 Suspension of Covenants. 

(a) If on any date following the Issue Date, (i) the Notes have Investment Grade Ratings from both Rating Agencies, and (ii) no
Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture then, beginning on that day (the occurrence of the events described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) being collectively referred to as a “Covenant Suspension
Event”), the following covenants will be suspended (collectively, the “Suspended Covenants”): 
 (1) Section 4.07; 
 (2) Section 4.08; 

(3) Section 4.10; 
 (4) Section 4.11; 
 (5) Section 4.13; 

(6) Section 4.18; and 
 (7) clause (4) of Section 5.01(a). 
 (b) In the event that Parent, the
Company, the Restricted Subsidiaries and the Other Guarantors are not subject to the Suspended Covenants under this Indenture for any period of time as a result of the foregoing, and on any subsequent date (the “Reversion Date”) one
or both of the Rating Agencies withdraw their Investment Grade Rating or downgrade the rating assigned to the Notes below an Investment Grade Rating, then Parent, the Company, the Restricted Subsidiaries and the Other Guarantors will thereafter
again be subject to the Suspended Covenants under this Indenture with respect to events from any such Reversion Date until the maturity of the Notes unless there is a subsequent Suspension Period. The period of time between any Covenant Suspension
Event and any Reversion Date is referred to in this description as the “Suspension Period.” 
 (c) On any
Reversion Date, all Indebtedness incurred, or Disqualified Stock or preferred stock issued, during the Suspension Period will be classified as having been incurred or issued pursuant to Section 4.08(a) or one of the clauses set forth under
Section 4.08(b) (to the extent such Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or preferred stock would be permitted to be incurred or issued thereunder as of the Reversion Date and after giving effect to Indebtedness incurred or issued prior to the
Suspension Period and outstanding on the Reversion Date); provided that to the extent such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock would not be so permitted to be incurred or issued pursuant to Section 4.08(a) such
Indebtedness, Disqualified 

  
 87 

 
Stock or preferred stock will be deemed to have been outstanding on the Issue Date, so that it is classified as permitted under clause (3) of Section 4.08(b). Calculations made after
the Reversion Date of the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under Section 4.07 will be made as though the covenant described in Section 4.07 had been in effect since the Issue Date and prior to, but not during, the
Suspension Period. Accordingly, Restricted Payments made during the Suspension Period will not reduce the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under Section 4.07(a). 

(d) The Company shall give the Trustee prompt written notice of any Covenant Suspension Event. In the absence of such notice, the Trustee
shall assume the Suspended Covenants apply and are in full force and effect. The Company shall give the Trustee prompt written notice of any occurrence of a Reversion Date. After any such notice of the occurrence of a Reversion Date, the Trustee
shall assume the Suspended Covenants apply and are in full force and effect. 
 (e) No Default or Event of Default will be
deemed to have occurred on the Reversion Date as a result of any actions taken by Parent, the Company, the Restricted Subsidiaries and the Other Guarantors during the Suspension Period. Within 30 days of such Reversion Date, the Company must comply
with the terms of Section 4.13. 
 (f) Notwithstanding that the Suspended Covenants may be reinstated, the failure to
comply with the Suspended Covenants during the Suspension Period (including any action taken or omitted to be taken with respect thereto) or after the Suspension Period based solely on events that occurred during the Suspension Period will not give
rise to a Default or Event of Default under this Indenture. In addition, without causing a Default or Event of Default, Parent, the Company, Restricted Subsidiaries and Other Guarantors shall be permitted to honor any contractual commitments entered
into during a Suspension Period following a Reversion Date; provided that such contractual commitments were entered into during the Suspension Period and not in contemplation of a reversion of the Suspended Covenants. 

(g) For purposes of Section 4.18, on the Reversion Date, any unutilized Excess Proceeds amount will be reset to zero.

paragraph (a) of this Section will not apply to any Guarantor, other than Parent.

of the properties or assets of Parent, the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries in a transaction that is subject to, and that complies with the provisions of, Section 5.01 (“Merger, Consolidation, or Sale of Assets”) hereof, the
successor Person formed by such consolidation or into or with which Parent, the Company or Restricted Subsidiaries is or are merged or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition is made shall succeed to, and be
substituted for (so that from and after the date of such consolidation, merger, sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition, the provisions of this Indenture referring to the “Parent” or the “Company,” as
applicable, shall refer instead to the successor Person and not to Parent, the Company or the applicable Restricted Subsidiaries), and may exercise every right and power of Parent, the Company or Restricted Subsidiaries under this Indenture with the
same effect as if such successor Person had been named as Parent, Company or Restricted Subsidiaries herein; provided, however, that the predecessor Parent, Company or Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be relieved from the obligation to pay
the principal of and interest on the Notes except in the case of a sale of all of Parent’s, Company’s or the applicable Restricted Subsidiaries’ assets in a transaction that is subject to, and that complies with the provisions of,
Section 5.01 (“Merger, Consolidation, or Sale of Assets”) hereof. 
 ARTICLE 6 

DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

60 days after notice to the Company by the Trustee or the Holders of 

  
 90 

 
at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding voting as a single class to comply with any of the other agreements in this Indenture (120 days with respect to
Section 4.16 (“Reports”), subject to the following paragraph); 
 (6) default under any mortgage,
indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by Parent, the Company, any of the Restricted Subsidiaries or any Other Guarantor (or the payment of which is
guaranteed by Parent, the Company, any of the Restricted Subsidiaries or any Other Guarantor), whether such Indebtedness now exists, or is created after the date of this Indenture, if that default: 

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

and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under
which there has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $25.0 million or more; 
 (7) failure by Parent, the Company, any of the Restricted Subsidiaries or any Other Guarantor to pay final judgments entered by a court or courts of competent jurisdiction aggregating in excess of $25.0
million, which judgments are not paid, discharged or stayed for a period of 60 days after the due date thereof; 

(8) breach by the Company or any Guarantor of any material representation or warranty or agreement in the Collateral
Agreements, the repudiation by the Company or any Guarantor of any of its obligations under the Collateral Agreements or the unenforceability of the Collateral Agreements against the Company or any Guarantor for any reason; 

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

(10) Parent, the Company or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of the
Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary pursuant to or within the meaning of Bankruptcy Law: 
 (A) commences a voluntary case; 
 (B) consents to the entry of an
order for relief against it in an involuntary case; 

  
 91 

 (C) consents to the appointment of a custodian of it or for all or
substantially all of its property; 
 (D) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; or

any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case; 
 (B) appoints a custodian of Parent, the Company or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a
Significant Subsidiary or for all or substantially all of the property of Parent, the Company or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a
Significant Subsidiary; or 
 (C) orders the liquidation of Parent, the Company or any of the Restricted
Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary; 
 and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days. 

Notwithstanding the above, if the Company elects by giving written notice to the Trustee, the sole remedy for an Event of Default
relating to the failure to comply with Section 4.16 (“Reports”), and/or for failure to comply with the requirements of Section 314(a)(1) of the TIA will, for the 60 days after the occurrence of such an Event of Default, consist
exclusively of the right to receive additional interest on the Notes at an annual rate equal to 0.25% of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding over such portion of the 60-day period immediately following such Event of Default during
which such Event of Default is continuing (such interest, “Special Interest”). In the event the Company does not elect to pay the Special Interest, upon an Event of Default under this Section, the Notes will be subject to
acceleration as provided below in Section 6.02 (“Acceleration”). The Special Interest that accrues on all outstanding Notes from and including the date on which an Event of Default relating to a failure to comply with
Section 4.16 (“Reports”) and/or for any failure to comply with the requirements of Section 314(a)(1) of the TIA first occurs to, but not including, the 60th day thereafter (or such earlier date on which the Event of Default
relating to such failure shall have been cured or waived) and will be payable in the same manner as Special Interest. On such 60th day (or earlier, if the Event of Default relating to such failure is cured or waived prior to such 60th day) such
Special Interest will cease to accrue and the Notes will be subject to acceleration, as provided below in Section 6.02 (“Acceleration”), if the Event of Default is continuing. This provision will not affect the rights of Holders in
the event of the occurrence of any other Event of Default. 

  
 92 

 Notwithstanding the above, any shortfall in payment, made necessary by the existence of
de minimus dollar amounts that cannot be divided equally among the Holders shall in no way be considered a Default or Event of Default under this Indenture. 
 Section 6.02 Acceleration. 
 In the case of an Event of Default
specified in clause (10) or (11) of Section 6.01 (“Events of Default”) hereof, with respect to Parent, the Company, any Restricted Subsidiary or any Other Guarantor, as applicable, all outstanding Notes will become due and
payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due
and payable immediately. 
 Section 6.03 Other Remedies. 
 If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any remedy available pursuant to applicable law to collect the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes or
to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture. 
 The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it
does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder of a Note in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy
or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law. 

Section 6.04 Waiver of Past Defaults. 
 Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive an existing Default or Event
of Default and its consequences hereunder, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, the Notes (including in connection with a redemption or an offer to purchase right of
Holders pursuant to Article 3); provided, however, that the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related Payment Default that
resulted from such acceleration. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any
subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
 Section 6.05 Control by Majority. 

Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any
proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on it. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture that the Trustee determines may be
unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders or that may involve the Trustee in personal liability. The Trustee may also withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of 

  
 93 

 
any continuing Default or Event of Default if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest, except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal, interest or
premium. 
 Section 6.06 Limitation on Suits. 
 In case an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under this Indenture at the request or direction of any Holders unless
such Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity or security satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest when due, no Holder of a
Note may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless: 
 (1) such Holder has previously
given the Trustee notice that an Event of Default is continuing; 
 (2) Holders of at least 25% in aggregate
principal amount of the then outstanding Notes have requested the Trustee to pursue the remedy; 
 (3) such
Holders have offered the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against any loss, liability or expense; 
 (4)
the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity; and 
 (5) Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period. 

A Holder of a Note may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder of a Note or to obtain a preference or priority
over another Holder of a Note. 
 Section 6.07 Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Note to receive payment of principal, premium, if
any, and interest on the Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Note (including in connection with an offer to purchase), or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be
impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder; provided that a Holder shall not have the right to institute any such suit for the enforcement of payment if and to the extent that the institution or prosecution thereof or the entry
of judgment therein would, under applicable law, result in the surrender, impairment, waiver or loss of the Lien of this Indenture upon any property subject to such Lien. 
 Section 6.08 Collection Suit by Trustee or Noteholder Collateral Agent. 
 If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(1) or (2) (“Events of Default”) hereof occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Noteholder Collateral Agent may recover judgment

  
 94 

 
(a) in its own name and (b)(1) in the case of the Trustee, as Trustee of an express trust or (2) in the case of the Noteholder Collateral Agent, as collateral agent on behalf of the Holders,
in each case against the Company for the whole amount of principal of, premium, if any, and interest remaining unpaid on, the Notes and interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, interest and such further amount as shall be sufficient
to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, the Noteholder Collateral Agent and their respective agents and counsel. 

Section 6.09 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 
 The Trustee shall be authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee or the Noteholder Collateral Agent
(including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, the Noteholder Collateral Agent and their respective agents and counsel) and the Holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings
relative to the Company (or any other obligor upon the Notes), its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any
custodian or trustee in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee or the Noteholder Collateral Agent, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly
to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, the Noteholder Collateral Agent and their respective agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee or
the Noteholder Collateral Agent under the Collateral Agreements and Section 7.07 (“Compensation and Indemnity”) hereof. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its
agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 (“Compensation and Indemnity”) hereof out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a
Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement
or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the
rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee or the Noteholder Collateral Agent, as the case may be, to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding. 
 Section 6.10 Priorities. 
 Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, if
the Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article 6, it shall pay out the money or property in the following order: 
 First: to the Trustee, the Noteholder Collateral Agent, the Paying Agent and the Registrar for amounts due under Section 7.07 (“Compensation and Indemnity”) hereof, including payment
of all compensation, expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee or the Noteholder Collateral Agent, as the case may be, and the costs and expenses of collection; 

  
 95 

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

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

The Trustee may fix a Record Date and Interest Payment Date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section. 

Section 6.11 Undertaking for Costs. 
 In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee or the Noteholder Collateral Agent, as the case may be, for any action taken or omitted by it
as a Trustee or the Noteholder Collateral Agent, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs,
including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section does not apply to a suit by the Trustee or the
Noteholder Collateral Agent, as the case may be, a suit by a Holder of a Note pursuant to Section 6.07 (“Rights of Holders to Receive Payment”) hereof, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the then
outstanding Notes. 
 ARTICLE 7 
 TRUSTEE 
 Section 7.01 Duties of Trustee. 

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

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

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

(2) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the
correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture. However, the Trustee will examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not
they conform to the form requirements of this Indenture. 
 (c) The Trustee may not be relieved from liabilities for its own
negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that: 
 (1) this
paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section; 

  
 96 

 (2) the Trustee will not be liable for any error of judgment made in good
faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it is proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and 
 (3) the Trustee will not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.05 (“Control by
Majority”) hereof. 
 (d) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture that in any way
relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a), (b), and (c) of this Section. 
 (e) No provision of this Indenture
will require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or incur any liability. The Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights and powers under this Indenture or the Collateral Agreements at the request of any Holders, unless
such Holder has offered to the Trustee security and indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense. 
 (f)
The Trustee will not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the Company. Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

 Section 7.02 Rights of Trustee. 
 (a) The Trustee may conclusively rely upon any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated
in the document. 
 (b) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officers’ Certificate or an
Opinion of Counsel or both. The Trustee will not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such Officers’ Certificate or Opinion of Counsel. The Trustee may consult with counsel and the advice of such
counsel or any Opinion of Counsel will be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon. 

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

believes to be authorized or within the rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture. 
 (e) Unless otherwise
specifically provided in this Indenture, any demand, request, direction or notice from the Company will be sufficient if signed by an Officer of the Company. 

  
 97 

 (f) The Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested
in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it against the losses, liabilities and expenses that might be incurred by it
in compliance with such request or direction. 
 (g) In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special,
indirect, or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

 (h) The Trustee shall not be required to take notice or be deemed to have notice of any Event of Default, except failure of
the Company to cause to be made any of the payments required to be made to the Trustee, unless the a Responsible Officer shall be specifically notified by a writing of such default by the Company or by the Holders of at least 25% aggregate principal
amount of the Notes then outstanding delivered to the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee and, in the absence of such notice so delivered the Trustee may conclusively assume no default exists. 

Section 7.03 Individual Rights of Trustee. 
 The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company or any Affiliate of the Company with the same rights it would have if
it were not Trustee. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as Trustee (if this Indenture has been qualified under the TIA)
or resign. Any Agent may do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee is also subject to Sections 7.10 (“Eligibility; Disqualification”) and 7.11 (“Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company”) hereof. 

Section 7.04 Trustee’s Disclaimer. 
 The Trustee will not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture, the Collateral Agreements, the Notes or the Collateral, it shall not be accountable
for the Company’s use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Company or upon the Company’s direction under any provision of this Indenture, it will not be responsible for the use or application of any money received by any
Paying Agent other than the Trustee, and it will not be responsible for any statement or recital herein or any statement in the Notes or any other document in connection with the sale of the Notes or pursuant to this Indenture other than its
certificate of authentication. 
 Section 7.05 Notice of Defaults. 

If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if it is known to the Trustee, the Trustee will mail to Holders a notice of
the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs or if discovered later than 90 days, promptly after such discovery. Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of, premium, if any, or Interest on, any
Note, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of the Holders of the Notes. 

  
 98 

 Section 7.06 Reports by Trustee to Holders of the Notes. 

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

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

Section 7.07 Compensation and Indemnity. 
 (a) The Company will pay to the Trustee, Noteholder Collateral Agent, Paying Agent and Registrar (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from time to time reasonable compensation for its
acceptance of this Indenture, the Collateral Agreements and services hereunder and thereunder; provided that the compensation set forth in any written fee agreement executed in connection herewith shall be deemed reasonable. The
Trustee’s compensation will not be limited by any law on compensation of a Trustee of an express trust. The Company will reimburse each Indemnified Party promptly upon request for all reasonable disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or
made by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses will include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Indemnified Party’s agents and counsel. 

(b) The Company and the Guarantors will indemnify the Indemnified Party against any and all losses, liabilities or expenses incurred by
it arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Indenture or the Collateral Agreements, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Company and the Guarantors (including
this Section) and defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Company, the Guarantors, any Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, except to
the extent any such loss, liability or expense may be attributable to its negligence or bad faith. The Indemnified Party will notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Indemnified Party to so notify the
Company will not relieve the Company or any of the Guarantors of their obligations hereunder or under the Collateral Agreements. The Company or such Guarantor will defend the claim and the Indemnified Party will cooperate in the defense. Each
Indemnified Party may have separate counsel and the Company will pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel if (i) the Company shall have failed to assume the defense thereof or employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee,
or (ii) the Trustee has been advised by such counsel that there may be one or more defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the Company. Neither the Company nor any Guarantor need pay for any
settlement made without its consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. 

  
 99 

 (c) The obligations of the Company and the Guarantors under this Section will survive the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and the termination of the Collateral Agreements. 
 (d) To secure the
Company’s and the Guarantors’ payment obligations in this Section, each Indemnified Party will have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money, Collateral or property held or collected by the Trustee, in its capacity as Trustee, or the
Noteholder Collateral Agent in its capacity as Noteholder Collateral Agent, except, in the case of the Trustee, that held in trust to pay principal, premium, if any, and interest on particular Notes pursuant to Article 8 hereof. Such Lien will
survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 
 (e) When an Indemnified Party incurs expenses or renders services
after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(9) or (10) hereof occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of
administration under any Bankruptcy Law. 
 (f) The Trustee will comply with the provisions of TIA § 313(b)(2) to the
extent applicable. 
 Section 7.08 Replacement of Trustee. 
 (a) A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee will become effective only upon the successor Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section.

 (b) The Trustee may resign in writing at any time and be discharged from the trust hereby created by so notifying the
Company. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Company in writing. The Company may remove the Trustee if: 

(1) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10 (“Eligibility; Disqualification”) hereof; 

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

 (4) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting. 

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

  
 100

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

 (f) A successor Trustee will deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company.
Thereupon, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee will become effective, and the successor Trustee will have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee will mail a notice of its
succession to Holders. The retiring Trustee will promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee; provided all sums owing to the Trustee hereunder have been paid and subject to the Lien provided for in
Section 7.07 (“Compensation and Indemnity”) hereof. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section, the Company’s obligations under Section 7.07 (“Compensation and Indemnity”) hereof will
continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee. 
 Section 7.09 Successor Trustee by Merger, etc. 

If the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another
corporation, the successor corporation without any further act will be the successor Trustee. As soon as practicable, the successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to the Company and the Holders. Any such successor must nevertheless be
eligible and qualified under the provisions of Section 7.10 (“Eligibility; Disqualification”) hereof. 
 Section 7.10
Eligibility; Disqualification. 
 There will at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation organized and
doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate Trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities and that has
a combined capital and surplus of at least $100.0 million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. 

This Indenture will always have a Trustee who satisfies the requirements of TIA § 310(a)(1), (2) and (5). The Trustee is
subject to TIA § 310(b). 
 Section 7.11 Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company. 

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

  
 101

 Section 7.12 Trustee in Other Capacities; Noteholder Collateral Agent and Paying Agent.

 References to the Trustee in Sections 7.01(b) and (f) (“Duties of Trustee”), 7.02 (“Rights of
Trustee”), 7.03 (“Individual Rights of Trustee”), 7.04 (“Trustee’s Disclaimer”), 7.07 (“Compensation and Indemnity”), and 7.08 (“Replacement of Trustee”) shall be understood to include the Trustee
when acting in its other capacities under this Indenture, including, without limitation, as Paying Agent and Noteholder Collateral Agent. Without limiting the foregoing, and for the avoidance of doubt, such Sections shall be read to apply to the
Noteholder Collateral Agent and the Collateral Agreements, mutatis mutandis, in addition to this Indenture. The privileges, rights, indemnities, immunities and exculpatory provisions contained in this Indenture shall apply to the Trustee,
whether it is acting under this Indenture, the other Indenture Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement. 
 ARTICLE 8

 LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE 
 Section 8.01 Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 

The Company may at any time, at the option of its Board of Directors evidenced by a resolution set forth in an Officers’
Certificate, elect to have either Section 8.02 (“Legal Defeasance and Discharge”) or 8.03 (“Covenant Defeasance”) hereof be applied to all outstanding Notes upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article
8. 
 Section 8.02 Legal Defeasance and Discharge. 
 Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 (“Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance”) hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.02 (“Legal
Defeasance and Discharge”), the Company and each of the Guarantors will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 (“Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance”) hereof, be deemed to have been
discharged from their obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes (including the Note Guarantees) on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, “Legal
Defeasance” means that the Company and the Guarantors will be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes (including the Note Guarantees), which will thereafter be deemed to be
“outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 (“Deposited Money and Government Securities to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions”) hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses
(1) and (2) below, and to have satisfied all their other obligations under such Notes, the Note Guarantees and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging
the same), except for the following provisions which will survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: 
 (1) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on, such Notes (including in connection with any redemption or purchase
of Notes pursuant to Article 3) when such payments are due from the trust referred to in Section 8.05 (“Deposited Money and Government Securities to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions”) hereof; 

  
 102

 (2) the Company’s obligations with respect to the Notes under Article 2
and Section 4.02 (“Maintenance of Office or Agency”) hereof concerning issuing temporary Notes, registration of Notes, mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and the maintenance of an office or agency for payment and money for
security payments held in trust; 
 (3) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee, and the
Company’s and the Guarantors’ obligations in connection therewith; and 
 (4) this Section and
Section 8.02 (“Legal Defeasance and Discharge”) of this Indenture. 
 Subject to compliance with this Article 8,
the Company may exercise its option under this Section 8.02 (“Legal Defeasance and Discharge”) notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 8.03 (“Covenant Defeasance”) hereof. 

Section 8.03 Covenant Defeasance. 
 Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 (“Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance”) hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03 (“Covenant
Defeasance”), the Company and each of the Guarantors will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 (“Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance”) hereof, be released from each of their obligations
under the covenants contained in Sections 4.07 (“Restricted Payments”), 4.08 (“Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock”), 4.09 (“Liens”), 4.10 (“Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting
Subsidiaries”), 4.11 (“Transactions with Affiliates”), 4.12 (“Business Activities”), 4.13 (“Additional Note Guarantees”), 4.14 (“Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries”), 4.15
(“Payments for Consent”), 4.16 (“Reports”), 4.17 (“Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control”), 4.18 (“Asset Sales”), 4.19 (“Impairment of Security Interest”) and 4.20 (“Withholding
Taxes”) hereof and clause (a)(4) of Section 5.01 (“Merger, Consolidation, or Sale of Assets”) and Article 12 hereof with respect to the outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04
(“Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance”) hereof are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes will thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver,
consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but will continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder. For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means
that, with respect to the outstanding Notes and Note Guarantees, the Company and the Guarantors may omit to comply with and will have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or
indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply will not constitute a Default or an
Event of Default under Section 6.01 (“Events of Default”) hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes and Note Guarantees will be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Company’s
exercise under Section 8.01 (“Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance”) hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03 (“Covenant Defeasance”), subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set
forth in Section 8.04 (“Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance”) hereof, Sections 6.01(3) through 6.01(8) (“Events of Default”) hereof will not constitute Events of Default. 

  
 103

 Section 8.04 Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. 

In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance under either Section 8.02 (“Legal Defeasance and
Discharge”) or 8.03 (“Covenant Defeasance”) hereof: 
 (1) the Company must irrevocably deposit
with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination of cash in U.S. dollars and non-callable Government Securities, in amounts as will be sufficient, as
affirmed in a writing delivered to the Trustee by a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of independent public accountants, to pay the principal of, or interest and premium on, the outstanding Notes on the stated date for
payment thereof or on the applicable Redemption Date, as the case may be, and the Company must specify whether the Notes are being defeased to such stated date for payment or to a particular Redemption Date; 

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

 (4) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a
Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit) and the deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other instrument to which the Company or any Guarantor
is a party or by which the Company or any Guarantor is bound; 
 (5) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance
will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Company or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Company or any Guarantor is bound;

 (6) the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the deposit was not
made by the Company with the intent of preferring the Holders over the other creditors of the Company with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any creditors of the Company or others; and 

(7) the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all
conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with. 

  
 104

 Section 8.05 Deposited Money and Government Securities to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous
Provisions. 
 Subject to Section 8.06 (“Repayment to Company”) hereof, all money and non-callable Government
Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying Trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.04 (“Conditions to Legal or Covenant
Defeasance”) hereof in respect of the outstanding Notes will be held (i) held in trust, (ii) at the written direction of the Company, such money may be invested, prior to maturity of the Notes, in Government Securities, and
(iii) applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the
Holders of such Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 

The Company will pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or
non-callable Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 (“Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance”) hereof or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which
by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes. 
 Notwithstanding anything in this Article 8 to the
contrary, the Trustee will deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon the request of the Company any money or non-callable Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 8.04 (“Conditions to Legal or Covenant
Defeasance”) hereof which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(1)
(“Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance”) hereof), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 

Section 8.06 Repayment to Company. 
 Subject to any unclaimed property law, any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on,
any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on its request or (if then held by the Company) will be discharged from such trust; and the
Holder of such Note will thereafter be permitted to look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money or Government Securities, and all liability of the Company as
Trustee thereof, will thereupon cease; 

  
 105

 
provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in the New
York Times or The Wall Street Journal, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which will not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then
remaining will be repaid to the Company. 
 Section 8.07 Reinstatement. 

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

Taxes”), 3.09 (“Mandatory Redemption Upon Event of Loss of a Vessel”), 4.17 (“Offer to Repurchase Upon a Change of Control”) and 4.18 (“Asset Sales”)); 

(3) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest on any Note; 

(4) waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, or interest, premium, if any, on the Notes (except
a rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes and a waiver of the Payment Default that resulted from such acceleration); 

(5) make any Note payable in money other than that stated in the Notes; 

(6) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights of Holders to
receive payments of principal of, or interest on the Notes; 
 (7) waive a redemption or repurchase payment with
respect to any Note (other than a payment required by one of the covenants described above under Sections 3.07 (“Optional Redemption”), 3.08 (“Optional Redemption for Changes in Withholding Taxes”), Section 3.09
(“Mandatory Redemption Upon Event of Loss of a Vessel”), 4.17 (“Offer to Repurchase Upon a Change of Control”) and 4.18 (“Asset Sales”)); 

  
 108

 (8) release any Guarantor from any of its obligations under its Note
Guarantee or this Indenture, except in accordance with the terms of the Indenture; or 
 (9) make any change in
the preceding amendment and waiver provisions. 
 In addition, the consent of Holders representing at least two-thirds of outstanding Notes will
be required to release all or substantially all of the Collateral otherwise than in accordance with this Indenture and the Collateral Agreements. 
 Section 9.03 Compliance with TIA. 
 Every amendment or supplement to
this Indenture or the Notes will be set forth in an amended or supplemental indenture that complies with the TIA as then in effect. 

Section 9.04 Revocation and Effect of Consents. 
 Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a Note and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note
that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder of a Note may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee
receives written notice of revocation before the date the amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder. 

The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a Record Date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to consent to any
amendment, supplement or waiver. If a Record Date is fixed, then notwithstanding the immediately preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such Record Date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to
consent to such amendment or waiver or to revoke any consent previously given, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such Record Date. 
 Section 9.05 Notation on or Exchange of Notes. 
 The Trustee may place
an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Company in exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate new Notes that
reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver. 
 Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note will not affect the
validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver. 
 Section 9.06 Trustee and Noteholder Collateral Agent to Sign Amendments,
etc. 
 The Trustee and/or the Noteholder Collateral Agent will sign any amended or supplemental indenture authorized
pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee and/or the Noteholder Collateral Agent. The Company may not sign an amended or supplemental indenture

  
 109

 
until the Board of Directors of the Company approves it. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture, the Trustee and/or the Noteholder Collateral Agent, as the case may be, will be
entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.01 (“Duties of Trustee”) hereof) will be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 13.04 (“Certificate and Opinion as to Conditions
Precedent”) hereof, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. 

ARTICLE 10 

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE 

Section 10.01 Satisfaction and Discharge. 
 This Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect as to all Notes issued thereunder when: 
 (1) either: 
 (A) all Notes that have been authenticated, except
lost, stolen or destroyed Notes that have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has been deposited in trust and thereafter repaid to the Company, have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or 

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

(2) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of the deposit (other than a Default or
Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit) and the deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other instrument to which the Company or any Guarantor is a party
or by which the Company or any Guarantor is bound; 
 (3) the Company or any Guarantor has paid or caused to be
paid all sums payable by it under this Indenture; and 
 (4) Parent or the Company has delivered irrevocable
instructions to the Trustee under this Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at maturity or on the Redemption Date, as the case may be. 

  
 110

 In addition, the Company must deliver an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of
Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied. 

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money has been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause
(B) of clause (1) of this Section, the provisions of Sections 10.02 (“Application of Trust Money”) and 8.06 (“Repayment to Company”) hereof will survive. In addition, nothing in this Section will be deemed to discharge
those provisions of Section 7.07 (“Compensation and Indemnity”) hereof, that, by their terms, survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 
 Section 10.02 Application of Trust Money. 
 Subject to the provisions
of Section 8.05 (“Deposited Money and Government Securities to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions”) hereof, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 10.01 (“Satisfaction and Discharge”)
hereof shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may
determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee; but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by
law. 
 If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Government Securities in accordance with
Section 10.01 (“Satisfaction and Discharge”) hereof by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the
Company’s and any Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 10.01 (“Satisfaction and Discharge”) hereof; provided
that if the Company has made any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment
from the money or Government Securities held by the Trustee or Paying Agent. 

  
 111

 ARTICLE 11 
 NOTE GUARANTEES 
 Section 11.01 Note Guarantee. 

(a) Subject to this Article 11, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally guarantees on a senior secured
basis to the extent, with respect to security, set forth in Article 12 and the Collateral Agreements, to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and the Noteholder Collateral Agent and their respective
successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes, the Collateral Agreements or the obligations of the Company hereunder or thereunder, that: 

(1) the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, the Notes will be promptly paid in full when due, subject to any
applicable grace period, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Company to the Holders or the Trustee and
the Noteholder Collateral Agent hereunder or thereunder or under any Collateral Agreement will be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and 

(2) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same will
be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. 
 Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors will be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each
Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection. 
 (b) The Guarantors hereby agree that
their obligations hereunder are unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes, any Collateral Agreement or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of
the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a
guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest, notice
and all demands whatsoever and covenant that this Note Guarantee will not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture. 

(c) If any Holder, the Noteholder Collateral Agent or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company, the
Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Company or the Guarantors, any amount paid by either to the Trustee, the Noteholder Collateral Agent or such Holder, this Note Guarantee, to
the extent theretofore discharged, will be reinstated in full force and effect. 
 (d) Each Guarantor agrees that it will not be
entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one
hand, and the Holders, the Noteholder Collateral Agent and the Trustee, on the other hand, (1) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 hereof for the purposes of this Note Guarantee,
notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (2) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6 hereof,
such obligations (whether or not due and payable) will forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Note Guarantee. The Guarantors will have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the
exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Note Guarantee. 

  
 112

 (e) Each Guarantor who is or becomes an Internal Charterer by signing this Indenture or
pursuant to a supplemental indenture or to a Note Guarantee agrees to the representations, covenants and assignments set forth in the Assignment of Insurances by Internal Charterers and supplement thereto set forth in Exhibits H-2 and K,
respectively, and the Assignment of Earnings by Internal Charterers and supplement thereto set forth in Exhibits I-2 and K, respectively. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Guarantor who is or becomes an Internal Charterer agrees to execute and
deliver such Assignments. 
 Section 11.02 Limitation on Guarantor Liability. 

Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Note
Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to
any Note Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor will be limited to the maximum amount that will, after giving effect to such
maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of each such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any
other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article 11, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Note Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. 

Section 11.03 Execution and Delivery of Note Guarantee. 
 To evidence its Note Guarantee set forth in Section 11.01 (“Note Guarantee”) hereof, each Guarantor hereby agrees that a notation of such Note Guarantee substantially in the form attached
as Exhibit E hereto will be signed by an Officer of such Guarantor (by manual or facsimile signature) on each Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and that this Indenture will be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by one of its
Officers. 
 Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Note Guarantee set forth in Section 11.01 (“Note Guarantee”)
hereof will remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Note Guarantee. 
 If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture or on the Note Guarantee no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note on which a Note Guarantee is endorsed, the Note
Guarantee will be valid nevertheless. 
 The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder,
will constitute due delivery of the Note Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors. 
 In the event that
the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries creates or acquires any Subsidiary after the Issue Date, if required by Section 4.13 (“Additional Note Guarantees”) hereof, the Company will cause such Subsidiary to comply with the
provisions of Section 4.13 (“Additional Note Guarantees”) hereof and this Article 11, to the extent applicable. 

  
 113

 Section 11.04 Guarantors May Consolidate, etc., on Certain Terms. 

Except as otherwise provided in Section 11.05 (“Releases”) hereof, no Guarantor may sell or otherwise dispose of all or
substantially all of its assets to, or consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving Person) another Person, other than the Company or another Restricted Subsidiary, unless: 

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

(2) either: 
 (A) subject to Section 11.05 (“Releases”) hereof, the Person acquiring the property in any such sale or disposition or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger
assumes all the obligations of that Guarantor under this Indenture and its Note Guarantee and the Collateral Agreements pursuant to a supplemental indenture and an amendment to the Registration Rights Agreement, in each case, in form reasonably
satisfactory to the Trustee; or 
 (B) the Net Proceeds of such sale or other disposition are applied in
accordance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture and the Collateral Agreements. 
 provided, however, that the transfer, sale
or other disposition, directly or indirectly, of all or substantially all of the assets of, directly or indirectly, the Guarantors as a whole will be governed by Article 5 and Section 4.18 (“Asset Sales”) and may be subject to
Section 4.17 (“Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control”). 
 In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale
or conveyance and upon the assumption by the successor Person, by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory in form to the Trustee, of the Note Guarantee endorsed upon the Notes and the due and punctual
performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this Indenture to be performed by the Guarantor, such successor Person will succeed to and be substituted for the Guarantor with the same effect as if it had been named herein as a Guarantor.
Such successor Person thereupon may cause to be signed any or all of the Note Guarantees to be endorsed upon all of the Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee. All the Note
Guarantees so issued will in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Note Guarantees theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Note Guarantees had
been issued at the date of the execution hereof. 

  
 114

 Section 11.05 Releases. 

The Note Guarantee of a Guarantor (other than Parent, except with respect to clause (4) below) will be released: 

(1) in connection with any transfer, sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of that Guarantor
(including by way of merger or consolidation) to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Company, a Guarantor or a Restricted Subsidiary, if the sale or other disposition does not violate Section 4.18
(“Asset Sales”) or Article 5 of this Indenture and complies with the Collateral Agreements; 
 (2) in
connection with any transfer, sale or other disposition of all of the Capital Stock of that Guarantor to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Company, a Guarantor or a Restricted Subsidiary, if the
transfer, sale or other disposition does not violate Section 4.18 (“Asset Sales”) or Article 5 of this Indenture and complies with the Collateral Agreements; 

(3) if Parent or the Company designates any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Guarantor to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary in
accordance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture; or 
 (4) upon Legal Defeasance or satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture as provided under Sections 8.02 (“Legal Defeasance and Discharge”), 8.03 (“Covenant Defeasance”) and 10.01 (“Satisfaction and Discharge”). 

Any Guarantor not released from its obligations under its Note Guarantee as provided in this Section will remain liable for the full
amount of principal of and interest and premium, if any, on the Notes and for the other obligations of any Guarantor under this Indenture as provided in this Article 11. 
 ARTICLE 12 
 SECURITY 
 Section 12.01 Grant of Security Interests; Intercreditor Agreement. 

(a) The Company and the Guarantors: 
 (1) shall grant a security interest in the Collateral as set forth in the Collateral Agreements to the Pari Passu Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Pari Passu Secured Parties, to secure the due and
punctual payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes and amounts due hereunder and under the Note Guarantees when and as the same shall be due and payable, whether at Stated Maturity thereof, on an Interest Payment Date,
by acceleration, purchase, repurchase, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of, premium, if any, and interest (to the extent permitted by law), if any, on the Notes and the performance of all the Pari Passu Obligations of
the Company and the Guarantors to the Holders, the Noteholder Collateral Agent and the Trustee under this Indenture, the Collateral Agreements, the Note Guarantees and the Notes, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and any other
Permitted Liens; 
 (2) hereby covenant (A) to perform and observe their obligations under the Collateral
Agreements and (B) take any and all commercially reasonable actions 

  
 115

 
(including without limitation the covenants set forth in Section 4.19 (“Impairment of Security Interest”) and in this Article) required to cause the Collateral Agreements to create
and maintain, as security for the Obligations contained in this Indenture, the Notes, the Collateral Agreements and the Note Guarantees valid and enforceable, perfected (except as expressly provided herein or therein) security interests in and on
all the Collateral, in favor of the Pari Passu Collateral Agent, superior to and prior to the rights of all third Persons, and subject to no other Liens (other than Permitted Liens), in each case, except as expressly permitted herein, therein or in
the Intercreditor Agreement; 
 (3) shall warrant and defend the title to the Collateral against the claims of
all persons, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement and any Permitted Liens; and 
 (4) shall do or cause to be
done, at their sole cost and expense, all such actions and things as may be necessary, or as may be required by the provisions of the Collateral Agreements, to confirm to the Pari Passu Collateral Agent the security interests in the Collateral
contemplated hereby and by the Collateral Agreements, as from time to time constituted, so as to render the same available for the security and benefit of this Indenture and of the Notes and Note Guarantees secured hereby, according to the intent
and purpose herein and therein expressed. 
 (b) Each Holder, by its acceptance of a Note: 

(1) appoints the Noteholder Collateral Agent to act as its agent (and by its signature below, the Noteholder Collateral
Agent accepts such appointment); 
 (2) consents and agrees to the terms of each Collateral Agreement, as the
same may be in effect or may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with their respective terms, and authorizes and directs the Noteholder Collateral Agent to enter into the Collateral Agreements and
to perform its obligations and exercise its rights thereunder in accordance therewith; 
 (3) appoints and
authorizes and directs the Noteholder Collateral Agent and the Trustee to enter into the Intercreditor Agreement, and, at a future date, to enter into an Intercreditor Agreement with any Credit Agreement Collateral Agent or any bank or financial
institution that intends to provide, or is in fact providing, a Credit Agreement to the Company or any Guarantor; and 
 (4) irrevocably and unconditionally consents and agrees to the terms set forth in the immediately succeeding clauses (A) through (C) below and instructs the Pari Passu Collateral Agent and the
Trustee to take all actions required with respect to the Notes, the Intercreditor Agreement and the related Collateral to give effect to such terms upon the effectiveness of such provisions as set forth therein: 

(A) Need for Requisite Consents. The Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries agree that the provisions set forth
in this Section 12.01(b)(4) shall become effective only upon the requisite Pari Passu Secured Parties, other than the Noteholder Collateral Agent and the Holders (the consent and instruction with respect thereto will be provided as set forth
above), providing any applicable 

  
 116

 
consent or instructions required under the Intercreditor Agreement and the applicable Pari Passu Document (collectively, the “Requisite Consents”). For the avoidance of doubt,
none of the foregoing shall permit any Person to take, or prohibit any Person from taking, any action for which any Pari Passu Document requires the consent of each holder of Pari Passu Obligations, in each case, prior to the receipt of such
consent. 
 (B) Partial Vessel Sales. Upon and after receipt of the Requisite Consents, the Grantors are
permitted from time to time to sell, convey or otherwise transfer to another Person (the “Vessel Minority Interest Owner”) partial interests in a Vessel, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the applicable Pari Passu
Document, including without limitation, the terms of the Indenture and the Collateral Agreements; provided that, in any event, such sale, conveyance, or transfer shall be subject to the Ship Mortgage with respect to such Vessel. If the Pari
Passu Collateral Agent receives any amount in payment or on account of any Pari Passu Obligations and the Pari Passu Collateral Agent pays or distributes to the Vessel Minority Interest Owner all or part of such amount by reason of the immediately
succeeding clause (i) or (ii) below, then each Grantor shall be and remain liable to the Pari Passu Secured Parties for, and the Pari Passu Obligations shall not be reduced by, the amount so paid or distributed to the same extent as if
such amount had never originally been received by the Pari Passu Collateral Agent, and any guarantee of the Pari Passu Obligations with respect to such amount shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, all as if such
payment or distribution had not occurred. In connection with the foregoing: 
 (i) upon the occurrence of any Event of Loss
(however defined in any Pari Passu Document) in respect of the applicable Vessel and the receipt of Event of Loss Proceeds by the Pari Passu Collateral Agent, notwithstanding the redemption provisions set forth under Section 3.09
(“Mandatory Redemption Upon Event of Loss of a Vessel”) or the equivalent redemption or repayment provisions in any other Pari Passu Document to the contrary, the Pari Passu Collateral Agent shall distribute such Event of Loss Proceeds as
follows: (A) first, to the payment of all unpaid fees, expenses, reimbursements and indemnification amounts owed to the Pari Passu Collateral Agent and any other Agent or Authorized Representative and all fees owed to any of them in
connection with the collection of such proceeds (regardless of whether allowed or allowable as a claim in any bankruptcy proceeding), pro rata in accordance with the relative amounts thereof on the date of any payment or distribution; and
(B) second, with the remaining balance of the applicable Event of Loss Proceeds after giving effect to the distribution set forth in the immediately preceding subclause (A), (1) to such Vessel Minority Interest Owner, in an amount
equal to the product of (x) such remaining balance and (y) the percentage of ownership interest in the applicable Vessel of the Vessel 

  
 117

 
Minority Interest Owner and (2) to the Pari Passu Secured Parties, in an amount equal to the product of (x) such remaining balance and (y) the percentage of ownership interest in
the applicable Vessel not owned by such Vessel Minority Interest Owner, to be distributed in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement; 
 (ii) upon any exercise of rights and remedies by the Pari Passu Collateral Agent or any other Pari Passu Secured Party pursuant to applicable law or any Pari Passu Document with respect to the applicable
Vessel or the proceeds thereof, the Pari Passu Collateral Agent shall distribute the proceeds of any Shared Payments received in respect thereof as follows: (A) first, to the payment in full of (x) all obligations secured by liens
and encumbrances existing on or with respect to such Vessel (other than the relevant Ship Mortgage) and (y) all other obligations having priority to the relevant Ship Mortgage under applicable law; (B) second, to the payment of all
unpaid fees, expenses, reimbursements and indemnification amounts owed to the Pari Passu Collateral Agent and all fees owed to it in connection with such collection or sale or otherwise in connection with the Intercreditor Agreement or any other
Pari Passu Document (regardless of whether allowed or allowable as a claim in any bankruptcy proceeding), pro rata in accordance with the relative amounts thereof on the date of any payment or distribution; and (C) third, with the
remaining balance of the applicable Shared Payments after giving effect to the distributions set forth in the immediately preceding subclauses (A) and (B), (1) to such Vessel Minority Interest Owner, in an amount equal to the product of
(x) such remaining balance and (y) the percentage of ownership interest in the applicable Vessel of the Vessel Minority Interest Owner and (2) to the Pari Passu Secured Parties, in an amount equal to the product of (x) such
remaining balance and (y) the percentage of ownership interest in the applicable Vessel not owned by such Vessel Minority Interest Owner, to be distributed in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement; 

(iii) any bill of sale or other instrument of partial transfer shall state on its face that the interest transferred to the Vessel
Minority Interest Owner is subject to the lien of the relevant Ship Mortgage, and the Vessel Minority Interest Owner shall explicitly acknowledge to the Pari Passu Collateral Agent that the Vessel Minority Interest Owner takes such interest subject
to the relevant Ship Mortgage; and 
 (iv) no provision of any Pari Passu Document shall limit or otherwise prohibit or restrict
such Grantor’s ability to distribute to 

  
 118

 
such Vessel Minority Interest Owner its pro rata share of revenue, earnings or other distributions due and owing and made in respect of such Vessel; provided that this clause
(iv) shall be subject to the immediately preceding clauses (i) through (iii) and shall not modify or limit the application of any provision of any Pari Passu Document. 

(C) Authorization of Agents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Pari Passu Document, upon and after
receipt of the Requisite Consents, without the need for any further consent or other action by any Pari Passu Secured Party or Agent, then the Pari Passu Collateral Agent, the Controlling Party and any other Agent or other representative whose
consent is otherwise required may amend, restate, supplement or otherwise modify any Pari Passu Document, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all security agreements, ship mortgages, financing statements, other lien
instruments, insurance arrangements and agreements, and intercreditor agreements, enter into one or more other Pari Passu Documents and may take any other action that is reasonably incidental thereto to give effect to or to evidence the foregoing,
and each of: 
 (i) each applicable Agent; 
 (ii) each Authorized Representative, including without limitation the applicable Controlling Party; 
 (iii) the applicable Controlling Secured Parties; and 
 (iv) the Pari Passu
Collateral Agent, 
 will then take such actions as may be requested by the Company or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary in
its reasonable discretion to give effect to or to evidence the foregoing and that are otherwise not prohibited by any of the Pari Passu Documents and each such Agent, Authorized Representative, Controlling Party or Pari Passu Collateral Agent shall
act upon the written instruction of the Company or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary with respect thereto. Upon and after the receipt of the Requisite Consents, no Pari Passu Secured Party shall contest, protest or object to any action taken by
the Pari Passu Collateral Agent, the Controlling Secured Parties, the Controlling Party or any applicable Agent or any other exercise by the Pari Passu Collateral Agent, the Controlling Party, the Controlling Secured Parties or any applicable Agent,
in each case, to the extent (and only to the extent) that the Pari Passu Collateral Agent, the Controlling Party, the Controlling Secured Parties or such Agent, as the case may be, considers such action or exercise necessary or desirable to give
effect to or to evidence the foregoing. 

  
 119

 (c) Other than as expressly set forth herein, this Article 12, the Security Agreement and
the other Collateral Agreements (other than the Intercreditor Agreement) will be subject to the terms, limitations and conditions set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement. 
 (d) The Trustee will determine the circumstances and manner in which the Collateral will be disposed of, including, but not limited to, the determination of whether to release all or any portion of the
Collateral from the Liens created by the Collateral Agreements and whether to foreclose on the Collateral following a Default or Event of Default. 
 Section 12.02 Recording and Opinions. 
 (a) The Company shall, and
shall cause each of the Guarantors to, at their sole cost and expense, take or cause to be taken all commercially reasonable action required to perfect (except as expressly provided in the Collateral Agreements), maintain (with the priority required
under the Collateral Agreements), preserve and protect the security interests in the Collateral granted by the Collateral Agreements, including (i) the filing of financing statements, continuation statements, collateral assignments and any
instruments of further assurance, in such manner and in such places as may be required by law to preserve and protect fully the rights of the Holders, the Pari Passu Collateral Agent, and the Trustee under this Indenture and the Collateral
Agreements to all property comprising the Collateral pursuant to the terms of the Collateral Agreements, and (ii) the delivery of the certificates, if any, evidencing the certificated securities pledged under the Collateral Agreements, duly
endorsed in blank or accompanied by undated stock powers or other instruments of transfer executed in blank. The Company shall from time to time promptly pay all financing and continuation statement recording and/or filing fees, charges and
recording and similar taxes relating to this Indenture, the Collateral Agreements and any amendments hereto or thereto and any other instruments of further assurance required pursuant thereto. Neither the Company nor any Guarantor will be permitted
to take any action, or omit to take any action, which action or omission might or would have the result of materially impairing the security interest with respect to the Collateral for the benefit of the Holders and other Pari Passu Secured Parties
except as expressly set forth herein, in the Intercreditor Agreement or the Collateral Agreements. 
 (b) If property of a type
constituting Collateral is acquired by the Company or any Guarantor (other than Parent) that is not automatically subject to a Lien or perfected security interest under the Collateral Agreements or there is a new Guarantor, then the Company or such
Guarantor will, as soon as practicable after such property’s acquisition or such Subsidiary becoming a Guarantor and in any event within 20 Business Days or as soon as practicable where applicable local law requires additional time for
compliance with applicable legal requirements, grant Liens having first priority on such property (or, in the case of a new Guarantor, all of its assets constituting the type that is Collateral) in favor of the Pari Passu Collateral Agent and
deliver certain certificates (including in the case of real property title insurance) in respect thereof as required by this Indenture or the Collateral Agreements and take all necessary steps to perfect the security interest represented by such
Liens. 
 (c) The Company shall furnish to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent (if other than the Trustee), on or within one
month of December 31 of each year, commencing December 31, 2013, an Opinion of Counsel either (1) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all action 

  
 120

 
necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of the security interests created by the Collateral Agreements and reciting the details of such action or referring to prior Opinions of Counsel in
which such details are given have been taken or (2) stating that, in the Opinion of such Counsel, no such action is necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of any security interest created under any of the Collateral Agreements.

 Section 12.03 Release of Collateral. 
 (a) The Company and the Guarantors will be entitled to releases of assets included in the Collateral from the Liens securing Note Obligations under any one or more of the following circumstances:

 (1) upon the full and final payment and performance of all Note Obligations of the Company and the Guarantors;

 (2) with respect to any asset constituting Collateral (other than the Capital Stock of the Company), if such
Collateral is sold or otherwise disposed of in accordance with the terms of Section 4.18 (“Asset Sales”) and the Collateral Agreements and the Company has delivered to the Pari Passu Collateral Agent an Officers’ Certificate
certifying to such effect; provided that (a) any cash received from a disposition of Collateral will be required to be deposited in a deposit account controlled by the Company and held as Collateral subject to the Liens pending its
application or use in compliance with Section 4.18 (“Asset Sales”) and, from such deposit account, Parent, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary may withdraw funds to deploy the proceeds of an Asset Sale in compliance with
Section 4.18 (“Asset Sales”); and (b) to the extent that any disposition in such Asset Sale was of Collateral, the non-cash consideration received is pledged as Collateral under the Collateral Agreements substantially
simultaneously with such sale, in accordance with the requirements set forth in this Indenture and the Collateral Agreements; 
 (3) upon legal or covenant defeasance or satisfaction and discharge of the Notes as provided in Sections 8.02, 8.03 and 10.01 (“Legal Defeasance and Discharge,” “Covenant Defeasance”
and “Satisfaction and Discharge,” respectively); 
 (4) with respect to an applicable Subsidiary, upon
the occurrence of a Contract Unwind Trigger; 
 (5) with respect to any assignment of rights under the respective
terminated Internal Charter only, upon the occurrence of an Internal Charter Unwind Trigger; or 
 (6) if any
Guarantor is released from its Note Guarantee in accordance with the terms of this Indenture (including by virtue of such Guarantor ceasing to be a Restricted Subsidiary), that Guarantor’s assets will also be released from the Liens securing
its Note Guarantee and the other Obligations. 
 (b) In addition to the foregoing, the Company and the Guarantors will comply
with the provisions of TIA Section 314. To the extent applicable, the Company and the Guarantors will comply with TIA Section 314(d), relating to the release of property or securities or relating

  
 121

 
to the substitution therefor of any property or securities to be subjected to the Lien of the security documents. Any certificate or opinion required by TIA Section 314(d) may be made by an
Officer of the Company except in cases where TIA Section 314(d) requires that such certificate or opinion be made by an independent Person, which Person will be an independent engineer, appraiser or other expert selected by the Parent.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph, neither Parent nor the Company will be required to comply with all or any portion of TIA Section 314(d) if it determines, in good faith based on advice of counsel, that under the terms
of TIA Section 314(d) and/or any interpretation or guidance as to the meaning thereof of the SEC, including “no action” letters or exemptive orders, all or any portion of TIA Section 314(d) is inapplicable to one or a series of
released Collateral. 
 (c) Upon receipt of any necessary or proper instruments of termination, satisfaction or release prepared
by the Company or the Guarantors, as the case may be, the Noteholder Collateral Agent shall execute, deliver or acknowledge such instruments or releases to evidence the release of any Collateral permitted to be released pursuant to this Indenture or
the Collateral Agreements, including the Intercreditor Agreement (if any). 
 (d) The release of any Collateral from the terms
of the Collateral Agreements shall not be deemed to impair the security under this Indenture in contravention of the provisions hereof if and to the extent the Collateral is released pursuant to this Indenture and the Collateral Agreements.

 Section 12.04 Form and Sufficiency of Release. 
 In the event that the Company or any Guarantor has sold, exchanged, or otherwise disposed of or proposes to sell, exchange or otherwise dispose of any portion of the Collateral that may be sold, exchanged
or otherwise disposed of by the Company or any Guarantor to any Person other than the Company or a Guarantor, and the Company or any Guarantor requests in writing that the Noteholder Collateral Agent furnish a written disclaimer, release or
quit-claim of any interest in such property under this Indenture and the Collateral Agreements, the Noteholder Collateral Agent shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company or such Guarantor (in proper form prepared by the Company or such
Guarantor) such an instrument without representation or warranty promptly after satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein for delivery of any such release. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, all purchasers and grantees of any property or
rights purporting to be released herefrom shall be entitled to rely upon any release executed by the Noteholder Collateral Agent hereunder as sufficient for the purpose of this Indenture and as constituting a good and valid release of the property
therein described from the Lien of this Indenture or of the Collateral Agreements. 
 Section 12.05 Authorization of Actions to be Taken
by the Pari Passu Collateral Agent Under the Collateral Agreements and the Noteholder Collateral Agent Under the Intecreditor Agreement. 
 Subject to the provisions of the applicable Collateral Agreements and the Intercreditor Agreement, the Trustee and each Holder, by acceptance of any Notes, agrees that (a) the Pari Passu Collateral
Agent shall execute and deliver the Intercreditor Agreement, the Collateral Agreements, and all agreements, documents and instruments incidental thereto, and act in 

  
 122

 
accordance with the terms thereof and in accordance with the written directions of the “Controlling Party” (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement), (b) the Pari Passu
Collateral Agent may, in its sole discretion and without the consent of the Trustee or the Holders, take (and, at the written direction of the Controlling Party, shall take) all actions it or the Controlling Party, as the case may be, deems
necessary or appropriate in order to (i) enforce any of the terms of the Collateral Agreements and the Intercreditor Agreement and (ii) collect and receive any and all amounts payable in respect of the Obligations and other Pari Passu
Obligations of the Company and the Guarantors hereunder and under the Notes, the Note Guarantees, the Intercreditor Agreement, the Collateral Agreements and the other Pari Passu Documents, (c) the Pari Passu Collateral Agent shall have power to
institute and to maintain such suits and proceedings as it may deem expedient (or as the Controlling Party may instruct it in writing to take) to prevent any impairment of the Collateral by any act that may be unlawful or in violation of the
Collateral Agreements or this Indenture, and suits and proceedings as the Pari Passu Collateral Agent or the Controlling Party may deem expedient to preserve or protect its interests and the interests of the Trustee and the Holders or any other Pari
Passu Secured Party in the Collateral (including the power to institute and maintain suits or proceedings to restrain the enforcement of or compliance with any legislative or other governmental enactment, rule or order that may be unconstitutional
or otherwise invalid if the enforcement of, or compliance with, such enactment, rule or order would impair the security interest thereunder or be prejudicial to the interests of the Pari Passu Collateral Agent, the Holders, the Trustee or any other
Pari Passu Secured Party) and (d) at any time the Noteholder Collateral Agent is the Controlling Party, it shall be entitled to direct the Pari Passu Collateral Agent in writing to take any of the foregoing actions. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, at any time the Noteholder Collateral Agent is the Controlling Party, it may, at the expense of the Company, request the direction of the Holders with respect to any such actions and upon receipt of the written consent of the Holders of
at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes, shall take, or instruct the Pari Passu Collateral Agent in writing to take, such actions; provided that all actions so taken shall, at all times, be in
conformity with the requirements of the Intercreditor Agreement. The Pari Passu Collateral Agent shall be entitled to the rights contained in and shall be protected by the provisions contained in Article IV of the Intercreditor Agreement and the
Noteholder Collateral Agent shall be entitled to the rights contained in and shall be protected by the provisions contained in Article IV of the Intercreditor Agreement mutatis mutandis. 

Section 12.06 Authorization of Receipt of Funds by the Trustee Under the Collateral Agreements. 

The Noteholder Collateral Agent is authorized to receive any funds for the benefit of itself, the Trustee and the Holders distributed
under the Collateral Agreements and to the extent not prohibited under any future Intercreditor Agreement, as applicable, for turnover to the Trustee to make further distributions of such funds to itself, the Trustee and the Holders in accordance
with the provisions of Section 6.10 (“Priorities”) and the other provisions of this Indenture. 

  
 123

 Section 12.07 Replacement of Noteholder Collateral Agent. 

A resignation or removal of the Noteholder Collateral Agent and appointment of a successor Noteholder Collateral Agent may be effected
pursuant to the terms of the Security Agreement. 
 Section 12.08 Further Assurances. 

(a) Neither the Company nor any Guarantor will enter into (i) any agreement that requires the proceeds received from any sale of
Collateral to be applied to repay, redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire any Indebtedness of any Person, other than as permitted or required by this Indenture and the Collateral Agreements or (ii) any amendment to, or other agreement
in respect of, the Tungsten Explorer Construction Contract to the extent that any such amendment or agreement would be materially adverse to the Company or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries or the Holders. 

(b) To the extent that any instrument, Mortgage or other document is required to be delivered to give effect to and perfect the Liens
(including with respect to the Tungsten Explorer when title thereto becomes legally vested in the applicable Guarantor), the Company and the Guarantors will be required to use their commercially reasonable efforts to deliver such instruments,
Mortgages and/or other documents as soon as possible but in no event later than 20 Business Days following the Issue Date or, if an asset is acquired or delivered after the Issue Date, not later than 20 Business Days after such acquisition or
delivery date; provided, however, that with respect to the Mortgage amendments in respect of the Panamanian flag vessels the Emerald Driller, the Sapphire Driller, the Topaz Driller and the Aquamarine Driller, the
Company and the Guarantors shall be required to file such instruments, Mortgages and/or other documents no later than the second business day following the Issue Date. Upon the occurrence of a Contract Winning Trigger, Parent or the Company shall
cause the applicable Subsidiary to pledge its assets and property pursuant to the Collateral Agreements to become part of the Collateral subject to the Liens and shall perfect such Liens as soon as practicable but not later than 20 Business Days or
as soon as practicable where applicable local law requires additional time for compliance with applicable legal requirements; and such Liens shall be released upon the occurrence of a Contract Unwind Trigger, provided that no assets or
property have been transferred or sold, directly or indirectly, by the Company or a Guarantor to such applicable Subsidiary that is subject to Section 4.18 (“Asset Sales”). 

(c) In furtherance of the foregoing in this Section, Parent and the Company shall, and they shall cause any Guarantor to, at their sole
cost and expense: 
 (1) execute and deliver all such agreements and instruments and take all further action as
the Pari Passu Collateral Agent or the Trustee shall reasonably request to more fully or accurately describe the property intended to be Collateral or the obligations intended to be secured by the Collateral Agreements; 

(2) file any such notice filings or other agreements or instruments as may be reasonably necessary under applicable law to
perfect the Liens created by the Collateral Agreements; 

  
 124

 (3) not assign or grant a security interest or pledge in or of the Tungsten
Explorer Construction Contract or Tungsten Explorer Refund Guarantee to any Person other than the Pari Passu Collateral Agent; and 
 (4) deliver to the Pari Passu Collateral Agent not more than five (5) months after the Issue Date an opinion of Panamanian counsel reasonably acceptable to the Pari Passu Collateral Agent to the
effect that the Ship Mortgages covering the Panamanian flag vessels have been duly permanently registered in the Public Registry as appropriate in Panama.

Day. Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent Interest Payment Date or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance; provided that if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is
authenticated between a Record Date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date. The Company will pay interest (including post-petition interest
in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal, premium, if any, and interest (without regard to any applicable grace period), from time to time on demand at a rate equal to 2% per annum in excess of the then applicable
interest rate on the Notes to the extent lawful. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. The Company will notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of interest proposed to be paid on each Note
and the date of the proposed payment. At least 15 days before the Record Date, the Company (or, upon the written request of the Company, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company) will mail or cause to be mailed to Holders a notice
that states the Record Date, the related Interest Payment Date and the amount of such interest to be paid. The Company will pay Additional Interest, if any, to Holders pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement. All references to
“interest” shall mean the initial interest rate borne by the Notes plus any Default Interest, any Additional Interest and any Special Interest, as the case may be. If there has been no demand that the Company pay Default Interest, the
Company shall pay Default Interest, Additional Interest, if any, and Special Interest, if any, in the same manner as other interest, and on the same dates as set forth in the Notes and in the Indenture dated as of March 28, 2013 (the
“Indenture”) among the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee. 
 (2) METHOD
OF PAYMENT. The Company will pay interest on the Notes to the Persons who are registered Holders at the close of business on March 15 or September 15 immediately preceding the next Interest
Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such Record Date and on or before such Interest Payment Date. The Notes will be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and interest at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such
purpose, or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders; provided that (1) payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds
will be required with respect to principal of and interest, premium on, all Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which will have provided wire transfer instructions to the Company or the Paying Agent and (2) such payment by check may

only be paid so long as no event of default under the Indenture is continuing. Such payment will be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal
tender for payment of public and private debts. The principal of the Notes shall be payable only upon surrender of any Note at the specified offices of the Paying Agent. If the due date for payment of the principal in respect of any Note is
not a Business Day at the place in which it is presented for payment, the Holder thereof shall not be entitled to payment of the amount due until the next succeeding Business Day at such place.

discretion for the Vessel; 
 (ii) for the purposes of insurance against Total Loss (as defined herein), the
Vessel and its equipment and appurtenances shall be insured for and valued (for the avoidance of doubt being an agreed/assessed value as between the assured and the insurers) in forms which are substantially equivalent to the coverage reflecting the
customary and prudent practice of other responsible and experienced Persons of similar size and established reputation engaged in the same or similar operation of vessels similar to the Vessel;

reputable war risk association or club against all risks covered under the rules of such association or club and with reasonable deductibles provided therein; 
 (iv) the Vessel shall also be insured against protection and indemnity risks and liabilities, including, without limitation, the Vessel’s full tonnage and insurance against liability for pollution or
the spillage or leakage of oil or other cargo by the Vessel, unless such risk is fully covered by the entry of the Vessel into an international group protection and indemnity association, in an aggregate amount equal to at least $500,000,000 and by
the entry of the Vessel in a protection and indemnity association or club belonging to the International Group of Protection and Indemnity Clubs (the “International Group”), but in any event shall be in an amount recommended by the

other vessels under such fleet cover or any premiums due for other insurances, nor cancel the insurance for reason of non-payment of premiums for other vessels under such fleet cover or of premiums for such other insurances, and shall undertake to
issue a separate policy or policies in respect of the Vessel if and when so requested by the Mortgagee; and 

(vi) if the Mortgagee determines solely based upon the advice of the Insurance Advisor that the insurances do not
reasonably protect the interests of the Mortgagee to the Vessel, it will consult with the Shipowner and the Insurance Advisor in order to agree to any changes to the insurances that may be appropriate to protect the interest of the Mortgagee in
relation to the Vessel, provided that if the Mortgagee and the Shipowner are unable to agree upon which changes may be appropriate, the Shipowner will comply with any further requirements relating to insurance recommended by the Insurance Advisor.

 (vii) The amount, types of coverage, the insurance provider(s) and all other issues related to the insurance
required by this Section 2.19 shall be those reasonably determined by the Insurance Advisor and recommended to the Mortgagee in writing. The Mortgagee shall have no duty or obligation to investigate or otherwise inquire into the recommendations

Mortgagee and the Secured Parties, mortgagee’s interest insurance, mortgagee’s additional perils (pollution) insurance, and, when applicable, mortgagee’s rights insurance or similar coverage, and providing coverage which shall be in
the maximum amounts obtainable under the hull policies or, if less, 110% of outstanding principal amount of the Credit Facilities set forth in Section 2.19(c)(ii). 
 (e) In the case of all marine and war risk hull and machinery policies and all protection and indemnity insurances (including insurance against liability for pollution or the spillage or leakage of
cargo), the Shipowner will cause the Mortgagee to be named an additional insured without liability for premiums or calls payable under the insurances. 
 (f) The Shipowner will cause all policies and certificates of entry with respect to insurance required hereby for the Vessel to contain a loss payable clause which shall be on substantially the terms set
forth in Schedule I attached to the Assignment of Insurances (or, if such terms are not obtainable, then such terms as shall, in the opinion of the Insurance Advisor be the best otherwise attainable), in the case of all marine and war risk hull and
machinery (including excess values) policies and all protection and indemnity and liability and oil pollution liability insurance, and which shall: (A) in the case of protection and indemnity insurance, provide for payment to the Shipowner or
its order unless the payment is to indemnify the Mortgagee from or reimburse the Mortgagee for any loss, damage or expense incurred by it or unless and until the insurers or associations receive notice from the Mortgagee that an Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing under this Mortgage, in which event all payments shall be made to the Mortgagee, provided, that the insurer may in all events make payments directly to third parties to whom liability has been established in
discharge of guaranties issued by the insurer or claims against the Shipowner or insurer, and (B) in the case of all other insurance, provide for payment in accordance with the terms of Subsection (h) of this Section 2.19.

Charterers to assign to the Mortgagee, by an Assignment of Insurances, all of the Shipowner’s, and as applicable, Internal Charrterer’s right, title and interest in and to each policy and contract of insurance (including all entries in
protection and indemnity or war risk associations) with respect to the insurance required hereby and furnish, or cause its brokers to furnish, written notice of such assignment to all insurers, underwriters, clubs and associations with respect to
such insurance, and (b) cause the insurance brokers and club managers to hold to the order of the Mortgagee the originals of all policies, contracts, binders, insurance slips, cover notes and certificates of entry relating to the Vessel and to
deliver certified copies thereof to the Mortgagee and to execute and deliver to the Mortgagee a letter of undertaking in connection with the above mentioned insurances and entries. 

(h) The proceeds of any insurances or entries referred to in this Section 2.19 shall be applied as follows: 

(i) Until the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default: 

  
 16 

 (A) any claim under any such insurance (other than in respect of a Total
Loss), whether such claim is under the terms of the relevant loss payable clause payable directly to the Shipowner or not, shall be applied by the Shipowner in making good the loss or damage in respect of which it has been paid or paid to the
Shipowner in reimbursement of moneys expended by it for such purpose, except that any loss in excess of $15,000,000 shall be paid to the Mortgagee and held by the Mortgagee, provided that the Mortgagee shall pay out of such insurance proceeds costs
and expenses in connection with the Shipowner’s repair of the Vessel so that the Vessel is restored to the condition required by this Mortgage. Such proceeds shall be paid by the Mortgagee in the amounts and to the persons certified from time
to time by the Shipowner in one or more Officer’s Certificates delivered to the Mortgagee as properly payable in connection with the repair of the Vessel; and 

(B) any claim in respect of protection and indemnity insurance shall be paid directly to the person, firm or company to
which the liability covered by such insurance was incurred or to the Shipowner in reimbursement of moneys expended by it in satisfaction of such liability. 
 (ii) Upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, any claim under any such insurance and entry (other than in respect of a Total Loss) shall be paid to the Mortgagee. The Mortgagee agrees
to apply any such amount received in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. 
 (iii) Whether
or not an Event of Default shall have occurred, any claim under any such insurance and entry in respect of a Total Loss shall be paid to the Mortgagee. The Mortgagee agrees to deliver such proceeds to the Pari Passu Collateral Agent for application
of such proceeds to the Secured Obligations in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement. Upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, the Mortgagee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to negotiate any claim in respect of
a Total Loss. 
 (iv) For purposes of this Mortgage, “Total Loss” means any of the following
events respecting the Vessel: (a) the actual, constructive, arranged, agreed, or compromised total loss of the Vessel; (b) the loss, theft or destruction of the Vessel or damage thereto to such extent as shall make repair thereof
uneconomical or shall render the Vessel permanently unfit for normal use for any reason whatsoever; (c) the requisition for title or other compulsory acquisition or forfeiture of the Vessel otherwise than by requisition for hire; or
(d) the capture, condemnation, seizure, arrest, detention or confiscation of the Vessel by any Governmental Authority or by Persons acting or purporting to act on behalf of any Governmental Authority unless such Vessel be released from such
capture, seizure, arrest, detention or confiscation within one (1) month after the occurrence thereof. 
 Any loss covered by this
paragraph (h) which is paid to the Mortgagee but which might have been paid, in accordance with the provisions of this Subsection, directly to the Shipowner or others, shall be paid by the Mortgagee to or as directed by the Shipowner. The
Mortgagee agrees that all payments to the Mortgagee of losses covered by this Subsection shall be applied by the Mortgagee in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, as applicable. 

  
 17 

 (i) In the event that any claim or Lien is asserted against the Vessel for loss, damage or
expense which is covered by insurance required hereunder (other than in the event of a Total Loss of the Vessel), and it is necessary for the Shipowner to obtain a bond or supply other security to prevent arrest of the Vessel or to release the
Vessel from arrest on account of such claim or Lien, the Mortgagee, on request of the Shipowner or its agent, shall, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, assign to any person, firm or corporation executing a surety
or guaranty bond or other agreement to save or release the Vessel from such arrest, all right, title and interest of the Mortgagee in and to said insurance (excluding any protection and indemnity insurance under which the Mortgagee is a named
insured) covering said loss, damage or expense, as collateral security to indemnify against liability under said bond or other agreement, which assignment shall be made in such form as the Shipowner shall instruct the Mortgagee. 

(j) The Shipowner will cause each insurance company, underwriter, club or fund (or an authorized agent thereof) with respect to all
insurance required hereby to agree in writing for the benefit of the Mortgagee that each policy or contract issued by such insurance company, underwriter, club or fund shall not lapse, expire, terminate or be cancelled for any reason whatsoever
without at least seven (7) days’ prior facsimile notice to the Mortgagee addressed as provided in Section 4.10. 

(k) The Shipowner agrees that it will not do or permit or willingly allow to be done any act by which any insurance or entry required by
this Section 2.19 may be suspended, impaired or cancelled, and that it will not permit or allow the Vessel to undertake any voyage, or perform any drilling contract, or run any risk or transport any cargo which may not be permitted by
the policies in force, without having previously insured the Vessel by additional coverage to extend to such voyages, risks or cargoes. The Shipowner agrees to give the Mortgagee prompt notice of the proposed location of the Vessel in the Gulf of
Mexico, and confirm to the Mortgagee that the insurance coverage meets the requirements of this Mortgage. While the Vessel is located in the Gulf of Mexico, the insurances may contain named windstorm coverage exclusions in the Gulf of Mexico unless
the Insurance Advisor advises that such named windstorm coverage is available in the Gulf of Mexico on a commercially reasonable basis and is customary with respect to the operation in the drilling industry of any vessel similar to the Vessel in the
Gulf of Mexico. 
 (l) The Shipowner will not cause or permit the Vessel to operate in or undertake a voyage to or to sail in
any area which has been declared a war area by the relevant underwriters and insurance companies and has been included in the list of exclusions from time to time in effect attached to the war risks insurance policies in the form of the war risks
trading warranties, without first notifying thereof the Mortgagee and the war risks underwriters of the Vessel and paying any additional insurance premiums required. The Shipowner agrees that it will promptly furnish to the Mortgagee evidence of
payment of such additional premiums. 

  
 18 

 (m) The Shipowner will comply with and satisfy in all material respects all of the
provisions of any applicable law, convention, regulation, proclamation or order concerning financial responsibility for liabilities imposed on the Shipowner or the Vessel with respect to pollution by any state or nation or political subdivision
thereof and will maintain all certificates or other evidence of financial responsibility as may be required by any such law, convention, regulation, proclamation or order with respect to the trade which the Vessel is from time to time engaged in and
the cargo carried by it. 
 (n) Any insurance placed through a “captive” insurer, or an unrated local insurer through
which all or a part of the insurance is required to be placed under the local laws of the jurisdiction in which the Vessel may be located from time to time, or cover reinsured will be in form and substance recommended by the Insurance Advisor in its
reasonable discretion and in any event such insurance will: 
 (i) be on the same terms as the original
insurances and will include the provisions of this Section 2.19 (including but not limited to an assignment of such insurances or reinsurances to the Mortgagee as set forth in Section 2.19(g) of this Mortgage); 

(ii) provide that notwithstanding any bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, dissolution or similar proceedings of or
affecting the reinsured that the reinsurers’ liability will be to make such payments as would have fallen due under the relevant policy of reinsurance if the reinsured had (immediately before such bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation,
dissolution or similar proceedings) discharged its obligations in full under the original insurance policies in respect of which the then relevant policy of reinsurance has been effected; and 

(iii) contain a “cut-through” clause in the following form (or a form otherwise recommended by the Insurance
Advisor in its reasonable discretion): 
 “It is hereby declared and agreed that if [•], a [•]
(“[•]”), as Insurer (or any successor to [•] as insurer) under the insurance policy (the “Policy”) between [•], as Insurer, and [•] and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as
Mortgagee, as Assured, fails for any reason to pay in full all or any portion of any losses payable in respect of the insured vessel (the “Vessel”) under the Policy, or in any event upon written notice by the said Assureds of an Event of
Default under the Mortgage, then all such losses (or such portion thereof) shall be paid directly by the reinsurers (collectively, the “Reinsurers”) identified from time to time under any and all reinsurance agreements (the
“Reinsurance Agreements”) providing for reinsurance under the Policy with respect to the Vessel to such Assureds, as the respective interests of the Assureds may appear under the Policy, but only for the proportions subscribed by the
Reinsurers and provided that the Reinsurers have not already made payment in full for their proportion in accordance with the terms of the Reinsurance Agreements and the Policy.” 

  
 19 

 (o) At all times during which the Vessel is operating within the jurisdiction of the United
States of America, the Shipowner shall maintain with respect to the Vessel: 
 (i) insurance or post bonds or
maintain approved evidence of financial responsibility (including, without limitation, qualification as a “qualified self-insurer” by the United States Coast Guard) with respect to the Vessel to cover the actual cost of removal of
discharged oil for which the Shipowner or the Mortgagee may be held strictly liable (or held liable due to negligence of the Shipowner or any other Person) under the Clean Water Act of 1977, as amended, the Oil Pollution Act 1990 (33 U.S.C. §
2701 et seq.), as amended, or the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act, as amended, or under any other Legal Requirement, including, without limitation, any Environmental Law, of any Governmental Authority that, now or in the future, may apply to the
Shipowner or the Mortgagee, the Vessel or its operations; and 
 (ii) such worker’s compensation or
longshoremen’s and harbor workers’ insurance as shall be required by applicable law, including endorsements for foreign and outer continental shelf operations, borrowed servant, voluntary compensation and in rem claims. 

SECTION 2.20 The Shipowner hereby irrevocably and unconditionally grants to the Mortgagee a power of attorney permitting the
Mortgagee and representatives thereof to examine the class records of the Vessel at any time, and, without cost or expense to the Mortgagee, the Shipowner will irrevocably and unconditionally instruct and authorize the Classification Society of the
Vessel as follows, and use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain from the Classification Society a written undertaking to the Mortgagee: 
 (a) to send to the Mortgagee, following receipt of a written request from the Mortgagee at the direction of Controlling Party (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement), certified true copies of all
original class records held by the Classification Society relating to the Vessel; 
 (b) to allow the Mortgagee (or its agents),
at any time and from time to time if an Event of Default (in the sole opinion of the Mortgagee) has occurred and is continuing, to inspect the original class and related records of the Shipowner and the Vessel at the offices of the Classification
Society and to take copies of them; and 
 (c) following receipt of a written request from the Mortgagee sent at the direction
of the Controlling Party (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement): 
 (i) to advise of any facts or matters
which may result in or have resulted in a change, suspension, discontinuance, withdrawal or expiry of the Vessel’s class under the rules or terms and conditions of the Classification Society; 

(ii) to confirm that the Shipowner is not in default of any of its contractual obligations or liabilities to the
Classification Society and, without limiting the foregoing, that it has paid in full all fees or other charges due and payable to the Classification Society; 

  
 20 

 (iii) if the Shipowner is in default of any of its contractual obligations
or liabilities to the Classification Society, to specify to the Mortgagee in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances of such default, the consequences thereof, and any remedy period agreed or allowed by the Classification Society; and

 (iv) to notify the Mortgagee immediately in writing if the Classification Society receives notification from
the Shipowner or any other person that the Vessel’s Classification Society is to be changed. 
 Notwithstanding the above
instructions and undertaking given for the benefit of the Mortgagee, the Shipowner shall continue to be responsible to the Classification Society for the performance and discharge of all its obligations and liabilities relating to or arising out of
or in connection with the contract it has with the Classification Society, and nothing herein or therein shall be construed as imposing any obligation or liability of the Mortgagee to the Classification Society in respect thereof. 

The Shipowner shall further notify the Classification Society that all the foregoing instructions and authorizations shall remain in full
force and effect until revoked or modified by written notice to the Classification Society received from the Mortgagee, and that the Shipowner shall reimburse the Classification Society for all its costs and expenses incurred in complying with the
foregoing instructions. 
 SECTION 2.21 The Shipowner covenants that it will at all times comply in all material respects
with the International Management Code for the Safe Operation of Ships and for Pollution Prevention adopted by the International Maritime Organization. The Shipowner shall take, or cause to be taken, all reasonable precautions to prevent illegal
drugs or drug paraphernalia from being used or kept on board the Vessel and, if applicable, otherwise comply with the Zero Tolerance anti-drug policy of the United States Government.

“Event of Default” means (a) with respect to the Existing Indenture, an “Event of Default” under, and as defined therein, (b) with respect to the 2012 Indenture, an “Event of Default” under, and as defined
therein, (c) with respect to the Term Loan Agreement, an “Event of Default” under, and as defined therein, or (d) with respect to the Credit Loan Agreement, an “Event of Default” under, and as defined therein. If an

in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and Section 4.13 hereof, to: 

  
 21 

 (a) declare immediately due and payable all of the Secured Obligations (in which case all of
the same shall be immediately due)(provided, no such declaration shall be required if an Event of Default shall have occurred under a particular Pari Passu Document that triggers an automatic enforcement of rights under such Pari Passu Document) and
bring suit at law, in equity or in admiralty, as it may be advised, to recover judgment for the Secured Obligations and satisfy the same out of the Vessel; 
 (b) exercise all of the rights and remedies in foreclosure with respect to the Vessel and otherwise given to mortgagees by the provisions of applicable law, including but not limited to, the provisions of
Panamanian Ship Mortgage Law and the regulations in effect thereunder from time to time, as amended; 
 (c) take and enter into
possession of the Vessel, at any time, wherever the same may be, without court decision or other legal process and without being responsible for loss or damage, and the Shipowner or other person in possession forthwith upon demand of the Mortgagee
shall surrender to the Mortgagee possession of the Vessel and the Mortgagee may, without being responsible for loss or damage (except to the extent caused by the Mortgagee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct), hold, lay up, lease, charter,
operate or otherwise use such Vessel for such time and upon such terms as it may deem to be for its best advantage, and demand, collect and retain all hire, freights, earnings, issues, revenues, income, profits, return premiums, salvage awards or
recoveries, recoveries in general average, and all other sums due or to become due in respect of such Vessel or in respect of any insurance thereon from any person whomsoever, accounting only for the net profits, if any, arising from such use of the
Vessel and charging upon all receipts from the use of the Vessel or from the sale thereof by court proceedings or pursuant to Section 3.1(e) below, all costs, expenses, charges, damages or losses by reason of such use (including
attorney’s fees); provided, that the Mortgagee shall be obligated to provide the Shipowner only with a final accounting; and if at any time the Mortgagee shall avail itself of the right herein given it to take possession of the Vessel, the
Mortgagee shall have the right to dock the Vessel for a reasonable time at any dock, pier or other premises of the Shipowner without charge, or to dock them at any other place at the cost and expense of the Shipowner, and the Mortgagee shall have
the right to require the Shipowner to deliver, and the Shipowner shall on demand, at its own cost and expense, deliver to the Mortgagee the Vessel as demanded; and the Shipowner hereby irrevocably instructs the master of the Vessel so long as this
Mortgage is outstanding to deliver the Vessel to the Mortgagee as demanded; 
 (d) inspect and make copies of all original class
records held by the Classification Society relating to such Vessel; and/or 
 (e) without being responsible for loss or damage,
other than loss or damage due to its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, sell such Vessel, at any place and at such time as the Mortgagee may specify and in such manner and such place (whether by public or private sale) as the Mortgagee may
deem advisable (without necessity of bringing the Vessel to the place designated for such sale), free from any claim by the Shipowner in admiralty, in equity, at law or by statute, after first giving notice of the time and place of any public sale
with a general description of the property in the following manner: 

  
 22 

 (i) by publishing such notice for twenty (20) consecutive days in a
daily newspaper of general circulation published in New York City; 
 (ii) if the place of sale should not be New
York City, then also by publication of a similar notice in a daily newspaper, if any, published at the place of sale; and 
 (iii) by mailing a similar notice to the Shipowner at its last known address on the day of first publication; 
 and notice of the time and place of any private sale by mailing such notice to the Shipowner at its last known address. 
 SECTION 3.2 Any sale of the Vessel or any interest therein made by the Mortgagee after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default in pursuance of this Mortgage, whether under
the power of sale hereby granted or any judicial proceedings, shall operate to divest all right, title and interest of any nature whatsoever of the Shipowner in and to the Vessel or such interest therein sold, as the case may be, and shall bar any
claim from the Shipowner, its successors and assigns, and all persons claiming by, through or under them. No purchaser shall be bound to inquire whether notice has been given, or whether any default has occurred, or as to the propriety of the sale,
or as to the application of the proceeds thereof. In the case of any such sale, the Mortgagee shall deliver the proceeds to the Pari Passu Collateral Agent for application of such proceeds to the Secured Obligations in accordance with the terms of
the Intercreditor Agreement. At any such sale, the Mortgagee may bid for and purchase such property and upon compliance with the terms of sale may hold, retain and dispose of such property without further accountability therefor. 

SECTION 3.3 Subject always to and in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Mortgagee is hereby appointed
attorney-in-fact of the Shipowner to execute and deliver to any purchaser referred to in Section 3.2, and is hereby vested with full power and authority to make, after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, in
the name and on behalf of the Shipowner, a good conveyance of the title to the Vessel so sold. In the event of any sale of the Vessel under any power herein contained, the Shipowner will, if and when required by the Mortgagee, execute such form of
conveyance of such Vessel and other related documents as the Mortgagee may specify. The powers and authority granted to the Mortgagee herein have been given for a valuable consideration and are hereby declared to be irrevocable. 

SECTION 3.4 Subject always to and in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Mortgagee is hereby appointed
attorney-in-fact of the Shipowner in the name of the Shipowner to, after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, demand, collect, receive, compromise and sue for, so far as may be permitted by law, all freights, hire,
earnings, issues, revenues, income and profits of the Vessel and all amounts due from underwriters under any insurance thereon as payments of losses or as return premiums or otherwise, salvage awards and recoveries of the Vessel, recoveries in
general average or otherwise in respect of the Vessel, and all other sums in respect of the Vessel, due or to become due at the time of the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, or in respect of any insurance thereon, from
any person whomsoever, and to make, give and execute in 

  
 23 

 
the name of the Shipowner acquittances, receipts, releases or other discharges for the same, whether under seal or otherwise, and to endorse and accept in the name of the Shipowner all checks,
notes, drafts, warrants, agreements and other instruments in writing with respect to the foregoing. The powers and authority granted to the Mortgagee herein have been given for a valuable consideration and are hereby declared to be irrevocable.

 SECTION 3.5 Whenever any right to enter and take possession of the Vessel accrues to the Mortgagee, it may require the
Shipowner to deliver, and the Shipowner shall on demand, at its own cost and expense, deliver to the Mortgagee such Vessel as demanded, subject always to and in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. If any legal proceedings shall
be taken to enforce any right of Mortgagee under this Mortgage, the Mortgagee shall be entitled as a matter of right to the appointment of a receiver of such Vessel and of the freights, hire, earnings, issues, revenues, income and profits due or to
become due and arising from the operation thereof, subject always to and in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. 
 SECTION 3.6 Subject always to and in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Shipowner authorizes and empowers the Mortgagee or its appointees or any of them to, after the
occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, appear in the name of the Shipowner, its successors and assigns, in any court of any country or nation of the world where a suit is pending against the Vessel because of or on account of
an alleged lien against such Vessel from which such Vessel has not been released and to take such proceedings as to them or any of them may deem necessary towards the defense of such suit and the purchase or discharge of such lien, and all
expenditures made or incurred by them or any of them for the purpose of such defense or purchase or discharge shall be a debt due from the Shipowner, its successors and assigns, to the Mortgagee, and shall be secured by the lien of this Mortgage in
like manner and extent as if the amount and description thereof were written herein. 
 SECTION 3.7 The Shipowner covenants
that at any time that any Secured Obligations shall be due and payable (whether by acceleration or otherwise), the same shall be paid in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement; and in case the Shipowner fails to pay or causes to be paid the
same when due in accordance with the Pari Passu Documents, and that failure constitutes an Event of Default, the Mortgagee shall be entitled to recover judgment for the whole amount so due and unpaid, together with such further amounts as shall be
provided by the Pari Passu Documents and applicable law. All moneys collected by the Mortgagee under this Section 3.7 shall be delivered to the Pari Passu Collateral Agent and applied by the Pari Passu Collateral Agent in accordance with
the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. 
 SECTION 3.8 Each and every power and remedy herein given to the Mortgagee
shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other power and remedy herein given or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity, in admiralty, by statute or under any Pari Passu Document or other agreement, and each and every power and
remedy whether herein given or otherwise existing may be exercised from time to time and as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by the Mortgagee, and the exercise or the beginning of the exercise of any power or remedy by the
Mortgagee shall not be construed to be a waiver of the right to exercise at the same time or thereafter any other power or remedy. No delay or omission by the 

  
 24 

 
Mortgagee in the exercise of any right or power or in the pursuance of any remedy accruing upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default shall impair any such right,
power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any such right, power or remedy; nor shall the acceptance by the Mortgagee of any security or of any payment of or on account of the Secured Obligations be construed to be a waiver of any right that
the Mortgagee may have hereunder after the occurrence and during the continuance of such Event of Default or any other Event of Default, including any subsequent Event of Default of the same or a different nature. 

SECTION 3.9 Subject always to and in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, if at any time prior to any sale of
or consummation of foreclosure proceedings on the Vessel by the Mortgagee after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default in accordance herewith, the Shipowner offers to cure such Event of Default and to pay all expenses,
advances, fees and damages to the Mortgagee arising from such Events of Default to the extent provided for in the Existing Indenture, the 2012 Indenture, the Credit Agreement or the Term Loan Agreement, respectively, or the other Pari Passu
Documents, including all costs and expenses incurred by the Mortgagee upon the exercise by the Mortgagee of its rights hereunder as a result of such Event of Default, then the Mortgagee may, but shall be under no obligation to, accept such offer,
cure and payment and restore the Shipowner to its former position, but such action shall not affect any rights which the Mortgagee may have hereunder after the occurrence and during the continuance of any subsequent Event of Default or impair any
rights consequent thereon. 
 SECTION 3.10 In case the Mortgagee shall have proceeded to enforce any right, power or remedy
under this Mortgage by foreclosure, entry or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Mortgagee, then and in every such case the Shipowner and the
Mortgagee shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the property subject or intended to be subject to this Mortgage, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Mortgagee shall continue as if no such proceedings
had been taken. 
 SECTION 3.11 Unless otherwise specified herein or in the other Pari Passu Documents, any cash proceeds
received by the Mortgagee from the sale of, collection of, or other realization upon any part of the Vessel or related collateral or any other amounts received by the Mortgagee hereunder, including the net earnings of any charter operation or other
use of the Vessel by the Mortgagee under any of the powers specified in Article I and/or Article II, may be, at the reasonable discretion of the Mortgagee, subject always to and in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor
Agreement (a) held by the Mortgagee in one or more cash collateral accounts as cash collateral for the Secured Obligations under the terms of the Pari Passu Documents or (b) delivered to the Pari Passu Collateral Agent for application to
the Secured Obligations. Amounts applied to the Secured Obligations shall be applied to the payment of the Secured Obligations in the order set forth in and in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. Any surplus cash collateral or
cash proceeds held by the Mortgagee after payment in full of the Secured Obligations shall be paid over to the Shipowner or to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus. 

  
 25 

 SECTION 3.12 Unless and until one or more Events of Default shall occur and be
continuing, the Shipowner (a) shall be suffered and permitted to retain actual possession and use of the Vessel and (b) shall have the right, from time to time, in its discretion, and without application to the Mortgagee, and without
obtaining a release thereof by the Mortgagee, to dispose of, free from the lien hereof, any boilers, engines, generators, drilling machinery and equipment, pumps and pumping equipment, machinery, masts, spars, sails, rigging, boats, anchors, cables,
chains, tackle, outfit, apparel, furniture, fittings, equipment, spares, fuel, stores or any other appurtenances of the Vessel, provided such item of property is replaced and such Vessel is maintained in the condition required herein and in the Pari
Passu Documents, and such replacement item, if any, shall forthwith become subject to the lien of this Mortgage as a first naval mortgage thereon. 
 SECTION 3.13 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Mortgage, the amount of any Secured Obligations that are secured by the Shipowner’s rights in the Vessel or any related collateral
or subject to a Lien in favor of the Mortgagee hereunder or under any other Pari Passu Document shall be limited to the extent, if any, required so that the Liens granted under this Mortgage shall not be subject to avoidance under Section 548
of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States or any comparable provision of any other applicable Law or to being set aside or annulled under any applicable Law relating to fraud on creditors. In determining the limitations, if any, on the amount of
any Secured Obligations that are subject to the Lien on the Vessel and related collateral hereunder pursuant to the preceding sentence, it is the intention of the parties hereto that any rights of subrogation or contribution which such Shipowner may
have under the Pari Passu Documents, any other agreement or applicable Law shall be taken into account.

(iv) cause each insurance company, underwriter, club or fund (or an authorized agent thereof) to agree in writing to mark
their records and to advise the Mortgagee at least seven (7) days prior to the lapse of each policy or contract issued by such insurance company, underwriter, club or fund by expiration, termination, failure to renew or otherwise for any reason
whatsoever and of any default in payment of any premium in respect of any insurances with respect to the Vessel. The Mortgagee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any such lapse of insurance in the absence of receipt of notice from such
brokers. If such insurances are not maintained in full force and effect, then the Mortgagee, at its option, may procure such insurance at the Shipowner’s expense; 

(v) deliver to the Mortgagee copies of all cover notes, binders, policies and certificates of entry in protection and
indemnity associations, and all endorsements and riders amendatory thereof, in respect of the insurances maintained in connection with the Vessel; 
 (vi) cause the insurances to provide for a deductible amount not in excess of $5,000,000 per occurrence; 
 (vii) provide to the Mortgagee promptly after receiving them copies of any communications relating to (A) non-payment of premiums and cancellation of the insurances; and (B) the imposition of
any exclusion or qualification or other material modification of the insurances; and 

  
 13 

 (viii) do all things necessary and provide all documents, evidence and
information within its power which may be necessary to enable the Mortgagee to collect or recover any moneys which may at any time become due in respect of the insurances. 
 (b) As long as either the Existing Indenture or the 2012 Indenture remains in effect and has not been terminated, the Mortgagee shall retain Willis Limited (or other independent insurance advisor of
reputable standing nominated by the Issuer and acceptable to the Mortgagee) as Insurance Advisor (the “Insurance Advisor”) who will from to time at the request of the Mortgagee advise whether the Shipowner’s insurances meet the
requirements of this Deed of Covenants or what additional or other insurances may be advisable from time to time to protect the interests of the Mortgagee in the Vessel, and the Mortgagee shall be entitled to rely without further inquiry or
determination and shall be fully protected in so relying on such Insurance Advisor’s advice. All fees and expenses of the Insurance Advisor shall be paid by the Shipowner. The Shipowner covenants and agrees that neither it nor any affiliate of
it will place any insurances required to be maintained by it under this Deed of Covenants through the Insurance Advisor. 
 (c)
The insurances shall include the following terms and conditions: 
 (i) while being operated, the Vessel shall
always be covered against marine perils and all risks of loss or damage, including loss, damage, fire and such other perils as are customary in the industry, in accordance with English, American or Norwegian hull clauses with reasonable deductibles
as determined by the Shipowner but in no event in excess of $5,000,000. When and while the Vessel is laid up, in lieu of the aforesaid hull insurance, port risk insurance may be taken out thereon by the Shipowner under forms of policies recommended
by the Insurance Advisor in its reasonable discretion for the Vessel; 
 (ii) for the purposes of insurance
against Total Loss (as defined herein), the Vessel and its equipment and appurtenances shall be insured for and valued (for the avoidance of doubt being an agreed/assessed value as between the assured and the insurers) in forms which are
substantially equivalent to the coverage reflecting the customary and prudent practice of other responsible and experienced Persons of similar size and established reputation engaged in the same or similar operation of vessels similar to the Vessel;

 (iii) the Vessel shall be covered against war and terrorist risks (including risks, whether or not regarded as
war risks, excluded by the “Free of Capture and Seizure” clauses in the standard form of marine policy) in accordance with English, American or Norwegian clauses and incorporating protection and indemnity clause and with crew war risk
insurance being effected separately, and the Vessel shall be covered for “strikes, riots and civil commotion” risk. Such risks may, at the option of the Shipowner, be insured by entering the Vessel in a reputable war risk association or
club against all risks covered under the rules of such association or club and with reasonable deductibles provided therein; 

  
 14 

 (iv) the Vessel shall also be insured against protection and indemnity risks
and liabilities, including, without limitation, the Vessel’s full tonnage and insurance against liability for pollution or the spillage or leakage of oil or other cargo by the Vessel, unless such risk is fully covered by the entry of the Vessel
into an international group protection and indemnity association, in an aggregate amount equal to the greater of (x) the highest amount of such coverage available from time to time, or (y) at least $500,000,000 and by the entry of the
Vessel in a protection and indemnity association or club belonging to the International Group of Protection and Indemnity Clubs (the “International Group”), but in any event shall be in an amount recommended by the Insurance Advisor in its
reasonable discretion; 
 (v) if any of the insurances referred to in this Section 2.19 form part of
a fleet cover, the Shipowner shall procure that the brokers shall undertake to the Mortgagee that such brokers shall neither set off against any claims in respect of the Vessel any premiums due in respect of other vessels under such fleet cover or
any premiums due for other insurances, nor cancel the insurance for reason of non-payment of premiums for other vessels under such fleet cover or of premiums for such other insurances, and shall undertake to issue a separate policy or policies in
respect of the Vessel if and when so requested by the Mortgagee; and 
 (vi) if the Mortgagee determines solely
based upon the advice of the Insurance Advisor that the insurances do not reasonably protect the interests of the Mortgagee to the Vessel, it will consult with the Shipowner and the Insurance Advisor in order to agree to any changes to the
insurances that may be appropriate to protect the interest of the Mortgagee in relation to the Vessel, provided that if the Mortgagee and the Shipowner are unable to agree upon which changes may be appropriate, the Shipowner will comply with any
further requirements relating to insurance recommended by the Insurance Advisor. 
 (vii) The amount, types of
coverage, the insurance provider(s) and all other issues related to the insurance required by this Section 2.19 shall be those reasonably determined by the Insurance Advisor and recommended to the Mortgagee in writing. The Mortgagee shall have
no duty or obligation to investigate or otherwise inquire into the recommendations made by the Insurance Advisor in connection with obtaining such insurance. 
 (d) At the Shipowner’s expense, the Mortgagee will obtain, for and on behalf of the Mortgagee and the Secured Parties, mortgagee’s interest insurance, mortgagee’s additional perils
(pollution) insurance, and, when applicable, mortgagee’s rights insurance or similar coverage, and providing coverage which shall be in the maximum amounts obtainable under the hull policies or, if less, 110% of outstanding principal amount of
the Credit Facilities set forth in Section 2.19(c)(ii). 
 (e) In the case of all marine and war risk hull and machinery
policies and all protection and indemnity insurances (including insurance against liability for pollution or the spillage or leakage of cargo), the Shipowner will cause the Mortgagee to be named an additional insured without liability for premiums
or calls payable under the insurances. 

  
 15 

 (f) The Shipowner will cause all policies and certificates of entry with respect to
insurance required hereby for the Vessel to contain a loss payable clause which shall be on substantially the terms set forth in Schedule I attached to the Assignment of Insurances (or, if such terms are not obtainable, then such terms as shall, in
the opinion of the Insurance Advisor be the best otherwise attainable), in the case of all marine and war risk hull and machinery (including excess values) policies and all protection and indemnity and liability and oil pollution liability
insurance, and which shall: (A) in the case of protection and indemnity insurance, provide for payment to the Shipowner or its order unless the payment is to indemnify the Mortgagee from or reimburse the Mortgagee for any loss, damage or
expense incurred by it or unless and until the insurers or associations receive notice from the Mortgagee that an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing under this Deed of Covenants, in which event all payments shall be made to the
Mortgagee, provided, that the insurer may in all events make payments directly to third parties to whom liability has been established in discharge of guaranties issued by the insurer or claims against the Shipowner or insurer, and (B) in the
case of all other insurance, provide for payment in accordance with the terms of Subsection (h) of this Section 2.19. 
 (g) In addition, the Shipowner will, at its cost and expense, (a) assign to the Mortgagee, and will cause all Internal Charterers to assign to the Mortgagee, by an Assignment of Insurances, all of
the Shipowner’s and, as applicable, Internal Charterers’ right, title and interest in and to each policy and contract of insurance (including all entries in protection and indemnity or war risk associations) with respect to the insurance
required hereby and furnish, or cause its brokers to furnish, written notice of such assignment to all insurers, underwriters, clubs and associations with respect to such insurance, and (b) cause the insurance brokers and club managers to hold
to the order of the Mortgagee the originals of all policies, contracts, binders, insurance slips, cover notes and certificates of entry relating to the Vessel and to deliver certified copies thereof to the Mortgagee and to execute and deliver to the
Mortgagee a letter of undertaking in connection with the above mentioned insurances and entries. 
 (h) The proceeds of any
insurances or entries referred to in this Section 2.19 shall be applied as follows: 
 (i) Until the
occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default: 
 (A) any claim under any such insurance (other than in
respect of a Total Loss), whether such claim is under the terms of the relevant loss payable clause payable directly to the Shipowner or not, shall be applied by the Shipowner in making good the loss or damage in respect of which it has been paid or
paid to the Shipowner in reimbursement of moneys expended by it for such purpose, except that any loss in excess of $15,000,000 shall be paid to the Mortgagee and held by the Mortgagee, provided that the Mortgagee shall pay out of such insurance
proceeds costs and expenses in connection with the Shipowner’s repair of the Vessel so that the Vessel is restored to the condition required by this Deed of Covenants. Such proceeds shall be paid by the Mortgagee in the amounts and to the
persons certified from time to time by the Shipowner in one or more Officer’s Certificates delivered to the Mortgagee as properly payable in connection with the repair of the Vessel; and 

  
 16 

 (B) any claim in respect of protection and indemnity insurance shall be paid
directly to the person, firm or company to which the liability covered by such insurance was incurred or to the Shipowner in reimbursement of moneys expended by it in satisfaction of such liability. 

(ii) Upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, any claim under any such insurance and entry (other than
in respect of a Total Loss) shall be paid to the Mortgagee. The Mortgagee agrees to apply any such amount received in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. 

(iii) Whether or not an Event of Default shall have occurred, any claim under any such insurance and entry in respect of a
Total Loss shall be paid to the Mortgagee. The Mortgagee agrees to deliver such proceeds to the Pari Passu Collateral Agent for application of such proceeds to the Secured Obligations in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement. Upon the
occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, the Mortgagee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to negotiate any claim in respect of a Total Loss. 

(iv) For purposes of this Deed of Covenants, “Total Loss” means any of the following events respecting
the Vessel: (a) the actual, constructive, arranged, agreed, or compromised total loss of the Vessel; (b) the loss, theft or destruction of the Vessel or damage thereto to such extent as shall make repair thereof uneconomical or shall
render the Vessel permanently unfit for normal use for any reason whatsoever; (c) the requisition for title or other compulsory acquisition or forfeiture of the Vessel otherwise than by requisition for hire; or (d) the capture,
condemnation, seizure, arrest, detention or confiscation of the Vessel by any Governmental Authority or by Persons acting or purporting to act on behalf of any Governmental Authority unless such Vessel be released from such capture, seizure, arrest,
detention or confiscation within one (1) month after the occurrence thereof. 
 Any loss covered by this paragraph (h) which is paid
to the Mortgagee but which might have been paid, in accordance with the provisions of this Subsection, directly to the Shipowner or others, shall be paid by the Mortgagee to or as directed by the Shipowner. The Mortgagee agrees that all payments to
the Mortgagee of losses covered by this Subsection shall be applied by the Mortgagee in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, as applicable. 
 (i) In the event that any claim or Lien is asserted against the Vessel for loss, damage or expense which is covered by insurance required hereunder (other than in the event of a Total Loss of the Vessel),
and it is necessary for the Shipowner to obtain a bond or supply other security to prevent arrest of the Vessel or to release the Vessel from arrest on account of such claim or Lien, the Mortgagee, on request of the Shipowner or its agent, shall, so
long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, assign to any person, firm or corporation executing a surety or guaranty bond or other agreement to save or release the Vessel from such arrest, all right, title and interest of the
Mortgagee in and to said insurance (excluding any protection and indemnity insurance under which the Mortgagee is a named insured) covering said loss, damage or expense, as collateral security to indemnify against liability under said bond or other
agreement, which assignment shall be made in such form as the Shipowner shall instruct the Mortgagee. 

  
 17 

 (j) The Shipowner will cause each insurance company, underwriter, club or fund (or an
authorized agent thereof) with respect to all insurance required hereby to agree in writing for the benefit of the Mortgagee that each policy or contract issued by such insurance company, underwriter, club or fund shall not lapse, expire, terminate
or be cancelled for any reason whatsoever without at least seven (7) days’ prior facsimile notice to the Mortgagee addressed as provided in Section 4.10. 
 (k) The Shipowner agrees that it will not do or permit or willingly allow to be done any act by which any insurance or entry required by this Section 2.19 may be suspended, impaired or cancelled, and
that it will not permit or allow the Vessel to undertake any voyage, or perform any drilling contract, or run any risk or transport any cargo which may not be permitted by the policies in force, without having previously insured the Vessel by
additional coverage to extend to such voyages, risks or cargoes. The Shipowner agrees to give the Mortgagee prompt notice of the proposed location of the Vessel in the Gulf of Mexico, and confirm to the Mortgagee that the insurance coverage meets
the requirements of this Deed of Covenants. While the Vessel is located in the Gulf of Mexico, the insurances may contain named windstorm coverage exclusions in the Gulf of Mexico unless the Insurance Advisor advises that such named windstorm
coverage is available in the Gulf of Mexico on a commercially reasonable basis and is customary with respect to the operation in the drilling industry of any vessel similar to the Vessel in the Gulf of Mexico. 

(l) The Shipowner will not cause or permit the Vessel to operate in or undertake a voyage to or to sail in any area which has been
declared a war area by the relevant underwriters and insurance companies and has been included in the list of exclusions from time to time in effect attached to the war risks insurance policies in the form of the war risks trading warranties,
without first notifying thereof the Mortgagee and the war risks underwriters of the Vessel and paying any additional insurance premiums required. The Shipowner agrees that it will promptly furnish to the Mortgagee evidence of payment of such
additional premiums. 
 (m) The Shipowner will comply with and satisfy in all material respects all of the provisions of any
applicable law, convention, regulation, proclamation or order concerning financial responsibility for liabilities imposed on the Shipowner or the Vessel with respect to pollution by any state or nation or political subdivision thereof and will
maintain all certificates or other evidence of financial responsibility as may be required by any such law, convention, regulation, proclamation or order with respect to the trade which the Vessel is from time to time engaged in and the cargo
carried by it. 
 (n) Any insurance placed through a “captive” insurer, or an unrated local insurer through which all
or a part of the insurance is required to be placed under the local laws of the jurisdiction in which the Vessel may be located from time to time, or cover reinsured will be in form and substance recommended by the Insurance Advisor in its
reasonable discretion and in any event such insurance will: 

  
 18 

 (i) be on the same terms as the original insurances and will include the
provisions of this Section 2.19 (including but not limited to an assignment of such insurances or reinsurances to the Mortgagee as set forth in Section 2.19(g) of this Mortgage); 

(ii) provide that notwithstanding any bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, dissolution or similar proceedings of or
affecting the reinsured that the reinsurers’ liability will be to make such payments as would have fallen due under the relevant policy of reinsurance if the reinsured had (immediately before such bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation,
dissolution or similar proceedings) discharged its obligations in full under the original insurance policies in respect of which the then relevant policy of reinsurance has been effected; and 

(iii) contain a “cut-through” clause in the following form (or a form otherwise recommended by the Insurance
Advisor in its reasonable discretion): 
 “It is hereby declared and agreed that if [•], a [•]
(“[•]”), as Insurer (or any successor to [•] as insurer) under the insurance policy (the “Policy”) between [•], as Insurer, and [•] and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as
Mortgagee, as Assured, fails for any reason to pay in full all or any portion of any losses payable in respect of the insured vessel (the “Vessel”) under the Policy, or in any event upon written notice by the said Assureds of an Event of
Default under the Deed of Covenants, then all such losses (or such portion thereof) shall be paid directly by the reinsurers (collectively, the “Reinsurers”) identified from time to time under any and all reinsurance agreements (the
“Reinsurance Agreements”) providing for reinsurance under the Policy with respect to the Vessel to such Assureds, as the respective interests of the Assureds may appear under the Policy, but only for the proportions subscribed by the
Reinsurers and provided that the Reinsurers have not already made payment in full for their proportion in accordance with the terms of the Reinsurance Agreements and the Policy.” 

(o) At all times during which the Vessel is operating within the jurisdiction of the United States of America, the Shipowner shall
maintain with respect to the Vessel: 
 (i) insurance or post bonds or maintain approved evidence of financial
responsibility (including, without limitation, qualification as a “qualified self-insurer” by the United States Coast Guard) with respect to the Vessel to cover the actual cost of removal of discharged oil for which the Shipowner or the
Mortgagee may be held strictly liable (or held liable due to negligence of the Shipowner or any other Person) under the Clean Water Act of 1977, as amended, the Oil Pollution Act 1990 (33 U.S.C. § 2701 et seq.), as amended, or the Outer
Continental Shelf Lands Act, as amended, or under any other Legal Requirement, including, without limitation, any Environmental Law, of any Governmental Authority that, now or in the future, may apply to the Shipowner or the Mortgagee, the Vessel or
its operations; and 

  
 19 

 (ii) such worker’s compensation or longshoremen’s and harbor
workers’ insurance as shall be required by applicable law, including endorsements for foreign and outer continental shelf operations, borrowed servant, voluntary compensation and in rem claims. 

SECTION 2.20 The Shipowner hereby irrevocably and unconditionally grants to the Mortgagee a power of attorney permitting the
Mortgagee and representatives thereof to examine the class records of the Vessel at any time, and, without cost or expense to the Mortgagee, the Shipowner will irrevocably and unconditionally instruct and authorize the Classification Society of the
Vessel as follows, and use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain from the Classification Society a written undertaking to the Mortgagee: 
 (a) to send to the Mortgagee, following receipt of a written request from the Mortgagee at the direction of the Controlling Party (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement), certified true copies of all
original class records held by the Classification Society relating to the Vessel; 
 (b) to allow the Mortgagee (or its agents),
at any time and from time to time if an Event of Default (in the sole opinion of the Mortgagee) has occurred and is continuing, to inspect the original class and related records of the Shipowner and the Vessel at the offices of the Classification
Society and to take copies of them; and 
 (c) following receipt of a written request from the Mortgagee sent at the direction
of the Controlling Party (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement): 
 (i) to advise of any facts or matters
which may result in or have resulted in a change, suspension, discontinuance, withdrawal or expiry of the Vessel’s class under the rules or terms and conditions of the Classification Society; 

(ii) to confirm that the Shipowner is not in default of any of its contractual obligations or liabilities to the
Classification Society and, without limiting the foregoing, that it has paid in full all fees or other charges due and payable to the Classification Society; 
 (iii) if the Shipowner is in default of any of its contractual obligations or liabilities to the Classification Society, to specify to the Mortgagee in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances of
such default, the consequences thereof, and any remedy period agreed or allowed by the Classification Society; and 
 (iv) to notify the Mortgagee immediately in writing if the Classification Society receives notification from the Shipowner or any other person that the Vessel’s Classification Society is to be
changed. 

  
 20 

 Notwithstanding the above instructions and undertaking given for the benefit of the
Mortgagee, the Shipowner shall continue to be responsible to the Classification Society for the performance and discharge of all its obligations and liabilities relating to or arising out of or in connection with the contract it has with the
Classification Society, and nothing herein or therein shall be construed as imposing any obligation or liability of the Mortgagee to the Classification Society in respect thereof. 

The Shipowner shall further notify the Classification Society that all the foregoing instructions and authorizations shall remain in full
force and effect until revoked or modified by written notice to the Classification Society received from the Mortgagee, and that the Shipowner shall reimburse the Classification Society for all its costs and expenses incurred in complying with the
foregoing instructions. 
 SECTION 2.21 The Shipowner covenants that it will at all times comply in all material respects
with the International Management Code for the Safe Operation of Ships and for Pollution Prevention adopted by the International Maritime Organization. The Shipowner shall take, or cause to be taken, all reasonable precautions to prevent illegal
drugs or drug paraphernalia from being used or kept on board the Vessel and, if applicable, otherwise comply with the Zero Tolerance anti-drug policy of the United States Government.

no such declaration shall be required if an Event of Default shall have occurred under a particular Pari Passu Document that triggers an automatic enforcement of rights under such Pari Passu Document) and bring suit at law, in equity or in
admiralty, as it may be advised, to recover judgment for the Secured Obligations and satisfy the same out of the Vessel; 
 (b)
exercise all of the rights and remedies in foreclosure with respect to the Vessel and otherwise given to mortgagees by the provisions of applicable law; 

  
 21 

 (c) take and enter into possession of the Vessel, at any time, wherever the same may be,
without court decision or other legal process and without being responsible for loss or damage, and the Shipowner or other person in possession forthwith upon demand of the Mortgagee shall surrender to the Mortgagee possession of the Vessel and the
Mortgagee may, without being responsible for loss or damage (except to the extent caused by the Mortgagee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct), hold, lay up, lease, charter, operate or otherwise use such Vessel for such time and upon such
terms as it may deem to be for its best advantage, and demand, collect and retain all hire, freights, earnings, issues, revenues, income, profits, return premiums, salvage awards or recoveries, recoveries in general average, and all other sums due
or to become due in respect of such Vessel or in respect of any insurance thereon from any person whomsoever, accounting only for the net profits, if any, arising from such use of the Vessel and charging upon all receipts from the use of the Vessel
or from the sale thereof by court proceedings or pursuant to Section 3.1(e) below, all costs, expenses, charges, damages or losses by reason of such use (including attorney’s fees); provided, that the Mortgagee shall be obligated to

the Vessel to the place designated for such sale), free from any claim by the Shipowner in admiralty, in equity, at law or by statute, after first giving notice of the time and place of any public sale with a general description of the property in
the following manner: 
 (i) by publishing such notice for twenty (20) consecutive days in a daily newspaper
of general circulation published in New York City; 
 (ii) if the place of sale should not be New York City, then

(iii) by mailing a similar notice to the Shipowner at its last known address on the day of first publication; 

and notice of the time and place of any private sale by mailing such notice to the Shipowner at its last known address.

 SECTION 3.2 Any sale of the Vessel or any interest therein made by the Mortgagee after
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default in pursuance of the Mortgage and this Deed of Covenants, whether under the power of sale hereby granted or any judicial proceedings, shall operate to divest all right, title and
interest of any nature whatsoever of the Shipowner in and to the Vessel or such interest therein sold, as the case may be, and shall bar any claim from the Shipowner, its successors and assigns, and all persons claiming by, through or under them. No
purchaser shall be bound to inquire whether notice has been given, or whether any default has occurred, or as to the propriety of the sale, or as to the application of the proceeds thereof. In the case of any such sale, the Mortgagee shall deliver
the proceeds to the Pari Passu Collateral Agent for application of such proceeds to the Secured Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. At any such sale, the Mortgagee may bid for and purchase such property and upon
compliance with the terms of sale may hold, retain and dispose of such property without further accountability therefor. 

SECTION 3.3 Subject always to and in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Mortgagee is hereby appointed
attorney-in-fact of the Shipowner to execute and deliver to any purchaser referred to in Section 3.2, and is hereby vested with full power and authority to make, after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, in
the name and on behalf of the Shipowner, a good conveyance of the title to the Vessel so sold. In the event of any sale of the Vessel under any power herein contained, the Shipowner will, if and when required by the Mortgagee, execute such form of
conveyance of such Vessel and other related documents as the Mortgagee may specify. The powers and authority granted to the Mortgagee herein have been given for a valuable consideration and are hereby declared to be irrevocable. 

SECTION 3.4 Subject always to and in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Mortgagee is hereby appointed
attorney-in-fact of the Shipowner in the name of the Shipowner to, after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, demand, collect, receive, compromise and sue for, so far as may be permitted by law, all freights, hire,
earnings, issues, revenues, income and profits of the Vessel and all amounts due from underwriters under any insurance thereon as payments of losses or as return premiums or otherwise, salvage awards and recoveries of the Vessel, recoveries in
general average or otherwise in respect of the Vessel, and all other sums in respect of the Vessel, due or to become due at the time of the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, or in respect of any insurance thereon, from
any person whomsoever, and to make, give and execute in the name of the Shipowner acquittances, receipts, releases or other discharges for the same, whether under seal or otherwise, and to endorse and accept in the name of the Shipowner all checks,
notes, drafts, warrants, agreements and other instruments in writing with respect to the foregoing. The powers and authority granted to the Mortgagee herein have been given for a valuable consideration and are hereby declared to be irrevocable.

 SECTION 3.5 Whenever any right to enter and take possession of the Vessel accrues to the Mortgagee, it may require the
Shipowner to deliver, and the Shipowner shall on demand, at its own cost and expense, deliver to the Mortgagee such Vessel as demanded, subject always to and in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. If any legal proceedings shall
be taken to enforce any right of Mortgagee under the Mortgage or this Deed of Covenants, the Mortgagee shall be entitled as a matter of right to the appointment of a receiver of such Vessel and of the freights, hire, earnings, issues, revenues,
income and profits due or to become due and arising from the operation thereof, subject always to and in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. 

  
 23 

 SECTION 3.6 At any time after the Secured Obligations shall have become due and
payable, the Mortgagee shall be entitled (but not bound) by writing executed as a deed or under the hand of any director or officer of the Mortgagee to appoint any person or persons to be a receiver and/or manager of the Vessel (the
“Receiver”) or any part thereof (with power to authorise any joint receiver and/or manager to exercise any power independently of any other joint receiver and/or manager) and may from time to time fix his remuneration, and may
remove any Receiver so appointed and appoint another in his place. Any Receiver so appointed shall be the agent of the Shipowner and the Shipowner shall be solely responsible for his acts or defaults and for his remuneration, and such receiver
and/or manager so appointed shall have all powers conferred by the Conveyancing and Law of Property Act (Ch. 138) and, in addition, power on behalf of and at the cost of the Shipowner to do or omit to do anything which the Shipowner could do or omit
to do in relation to the Vessel any part thereof and in particular (but without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing) any such receiver and/or manager may exercise all the powers and discretions conferred on the Mortgagee by the Mortgage and
this Deed of Covenants. 
 SECTION 3.7 Neither the Mortgagee nor any Receiver shall be liable as mortgagee in possession in
respect of the Vessel to account or be liable for any loss upon realisation or for any neglect or default of any nature whatsoever in connection therewith for which a mortgagee in possession may be liable as such. 

SECTION 3.8 Upon any sale of the Vessel or any share or interest therein by the Mortgagee, or by any Receiver, the purchaser shall
not be bound to see or enquire whether the Mortgagee’s power of sale has arisen in the manner provided in this Deed of Covenants and the sale shall be deemed to be within the power of the Mortgagee (or the Receiver, as the case may be) and the
receipt of the Mortgagee (or the Receiver, as the case may be) for the purchase money shall effectively discharge the purchaser who shall not be concerned with the manner of application of the proceeds of sale or be in any way answerable therefor
and the sale shall operate to divest the Shipowner of all rights, title and interest of any nature whatsoever in the Vessel and to bar any such interest of the Shipowner and all persons claiming through or under the Shipowner. 

SECTION 3.9 Section 19 of the Conveyancing and Law of Property Act or the equivalent provisions of any subsequent amending or
consolidating act shall not apply to this Deed of Covenants. The statutory power of sale shall be exercisable at any time after the money owing on this security shall have become payable without regard to Section 22 of the Conveyancing and Law
of Property Act which section shall not apply to this security or any sale made by virtue thereof. 
 SECTION 3.10 Subject
always to and in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Shipowner authorizes and empowers the Mortgagee or its appointees or any of them to, after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, appear in
the name of the Shipowner, its successors and assigns, in any court of any 

  
 24 

 
country or nation of the world where a suit is pending against the Vessel because of or on account of an alleged lien against such Vessel from which such Vessel has not been released and to take
such proceedings as to them or any of them may deem necessary towards the defense of such suit and the purchase or discharge of such lien, and all expenditures made or incurred by them or any of them for the purpose of such defense or purchase or
discharge shall be a debt due from the Shipowner, its successors and assigns, to the Mortgagee, and shall be secured by the lien of the Mortgage and this Deed of Covenants in like manner and extent as if the amount and description thereof were
written herein. 
 SECTION 3.11 The Shipowner covenants that at any time that any Secured Obligations shall be due and
payable (whether by acceleration or otherwise), the same shall be paid in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement; and in case the Shipowner fails to pay or causes to be paid the same when due in accordance with the Pari Passu Documents, and
that failure constitutes an Event of Default, the Mortgagee shall be entitled to recover judgment for the whole amount so due and unpaid, together with such further amounts as shall be provided by the Pari Passu Documents and applicable law. All
moneys collected by the Mortgagee under this Section 3.11 shall be delivered to the Pari Passu Collateral Agent and applied by the Pari Passu Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. 

SECTION 3.12 Each and every power and remedy herein given to the Mortgagee shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every
other power and remedy herein given or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity, in admiralty, by statute or under any Pari Passu Document or other agreement, and each and every power and remedy whether herein given or otherwise existing may be
exercised from time to time and as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by the Mortgagee, and the exercise or the beginning of the exercise of any power or remedy by the Mortgagee shall not be construed to be a waiver of the right to
exercise at the same time or thereafter any other power or remedy. No delay or omission by the Mortgagee in the exercise of any right or power or in the pursuance of any remedy accruing upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of
Default shall impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any such right, power or remedy; nor shall the acceptance by the Mortgagee of any security or of any payment of or on account of the Secured Obligations be
construed to be a waiver of any right that the Mortgagee may have hereunder after the occurrence and during the continuance of such Event of Default or any other Event of Default, including any subsequent Event of Default of the same or a different
nature. 
 SECTION 3.13 Subject always to and in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, if at any time
prior to any sale of or consummation of foreclosure proceedings on the Vessel by the Mortgagee after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default in accordance herewith, the Shipowner offers to cure such Event of Default and to
pay all expenses, advances, fees and damages to the Mortgagee arising from such Events of Default to the extent provided for in the Existing Indenture, the 2012 Indenture, the Credit Agreement or the Term Loan Agreement, respectively, or the other
Pari Passu Documents, including all costs and expenses incurred by the Mortgagee upon the exercise by the Mortgagee of its rights hereunder as a result of such Event of Default, then the Mortgagee may, but shall be under no obligation to, accept
such offer, cure and payment and restore the Shipowner to its former position, but such action shall not affect any rights which the Mortgagee may have hereunder after the occurrence and during the continuance of any subsequent Event of Default or
impair any rights consequent thereon. 

  
 25 

 SECTION 3.14 In case the Mortgagee shall have proceeded to enforce any right, power or
remedy under the Mortgage or this Deed of Covenants by foreclosure, entry or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Mortgagee, then and in every such
case the Shipowner and the Mortgagee shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the property subject or intended to be subject to the Mortgage or this Deed of Covenants, and all rights, remedies and powers of
the Mortgagee shall continue as if no such proceedings had been taken. 
 SECTION 3.15 Unless otherwise specified herein or
in the other Pari Passu Documents, any cash proceeds received by the Mortgagee from the sale of, collection of, or other realization upon any part of the Vessel or related collateral or any other amounts received by the Mortgagee hereunder,
including the net earnings of any charter operation or other use of the Vessel by the Mortgagee under any of the powers specified in Article I and/or Article II, may be, at the reasonable discretion of the Mortgagee, subject always to and in
accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement (a) held by the Mortgagee in one or more cash collateral accounts as cash collateral for the Secured Obligations under the terms of the Pari Passu Documents or (b) delivered to the
Pari Passu Collateral Agent for application to the Secured Obligations. Amounts applied to the Secured Obligations shall be applied to the payment of the Secured Obligations in the order set forth in and in accordance with the terms of the
Intercreditor Agreement. Any surplus cash collateral or cash proceeds held by the Mortgagee after payment in full of the Secured Obligations shall be paid over to the Shipowner or to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

 SECTION 3.16 Unless and until one or more Events of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Shipowner (a) shall
be suffered and permitted to retain actual possession and use of the Vessel and (b) shall have the right, from time to time, in its discretion, and without application to the Mortgagee, and without obtaining a release thereof by the Mortgagee,
to dispose of, free from the lien hereof, any boilers, engines, generators, drilling machinery and equipment, pumps and pumping equipment, machinery, masts, spars, sails, rigging, boats, anchors, cables, chains, tackle, outfit, apparel, furniture,
fittings, equipment, spares, fuel, stores or any other appurtenances of the Vessel, provided such item of property is replaced and such Vessel is maintained in the condition required herein and in the Pari Passu Documents, and such replacement item,
if any, shall forthwith become subject to the lien of the Mortgage and this Deed of Covenants as a first priority statutory mortgage thereon. 
 SECTION 3.17 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Deed of Covenants, the amount of any Secured Obligations that are secured by the Shipowner’s rights in the Vessel or any related
collateral or subject to a Lien in favor of the Mortgagee hereunder or under any other Pari Passu Document shall be limited to the extent, if any, required so that the Liens granted under the Mortgage or this Deed of Covenants shall not be subject
to avoidance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States or any comparable provision of any other applicable Law or to being set aside or annulled under any applicable Law relating to fraud on creditors. In determining the
limitations, if any, on the amount of any Secured 

  
 26 

 
Obligations that are subject to the Lien on the Vessel and related collateral hereunder pursuant to the preceding sentence, it is the intention of the parties hereto that any rights of
subrogation or contribution which such Shipowner may have under the Pari Passu Documents, any other agreement or applicable Law shall be taken into account.

No. [            ], Document No. [            ]. 
 C. The Original Mortgage secures, inter alia, the Shipowner’s obligations under, and the Shipowner’s guarantees of the Issuer’s obligations under, the following documents (in each
case, as defined in the Original Mortgage): 
  

	 	(i)	the 2012 Indenture; 

  

	 	(ii)	the Term Loan Agreement; 

  

	 	(iii)	the Credit Agreement; and

 E. The Shipowner is party to, and has executed and delivered a guarantee (the “2013
Note Guarantee”) of the obligations of the Issuer under the 2013 Indenture, pursuant to which the Issuer has issued to the Initial Purchasers (as defined in the 2013 Indenture) notes in US$775,000,000 aggregate principal amount bearing
interest at the rate of 7.125% and due 2023. The form of the 2013 Indenture is annexed hereto as Exhibit A and made a part hereof, and the form of the 2013 Note Guarantee is annexed to the 2013 Indenture as Exhibit E thereto.

 L. The Original Mortgage as amended by this Amendment secures the Secured Obligations, as such term is amended by virtue of the amended definition of “Pari Passu Obligations” as set forth in

and property hereby assigned which may come into the addressee’s hands or control and to continue to make such remittances or delivery until such time as the addressee may receive written notice or instructions to the contrary direct from the
Assignee. Each such addressee shall acknowledge in writing directly to the Assignee receipt of such Assignor’s letter of notification and instructions. 
 (h) Upon entering into an Internal Charter respecting any Vessel, each such Assignor will cause any Internal Charterer to execute and deliver to the Assignee an Assignment of Earnings substantially in the

that, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Assignee shall have no obligation or liability under any drilling contract, Internal Charter, Permitted Third Party Charter, other charter, contract of affreightment or pooling

Permitted Third Party Charter, other charter, contract of affreightment or pooling arrangement nor to make any payment, nor to make any inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by the Assignee or to present or file any claim,
or to take any other action to collect or enforce the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or which it may be entitled to hereunder at any time or times. 
 Section 6. Payment Directions; Power of Attorney; Financing Statements.

agrees to furnish the Issuer with information from time to time as to the accounts (other than the Earnings Account) into which moneys assigned hereunder are paid, the amounts and sources of such payments and the amounts and application of moneys
withdrawn therefrom. The Assignee, its successors and permitted assigns, are hereby constituted lawful attorneys of each Assignor, irrevocably, with full power (in the name of such Assignor or otherwise), to ask, require, demand, receive, compound
and give acquittance for any and all moneys, claims, property and rights hereby assigned, to endorse any checks or other instruments or orders in connection therewith and to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings which the
Assignee may deem to be necessary or advisable in the premises. Any action or proceeding brought by the Assignee pursuant to any of the provisions hereof or of any drilling contract, Internal Charter, Permitted Third Party Charter, other charter,
contract of affreightment, pooling arrangement or otherwise, and any claim made by the Assignee hereunder or under any drilling contract, Internal Charter, Permitted Third Party Charter, other charter, contract of affreightment or pooling
arrangement, may be compromised, withdrawn or otherwise dealt with by the Assignee without any notice to, or approval of, any Assignor. 
 (c) Each Assignor hereby irrevocably (x) authorizes the Assignee to file, at any time and from time to time, both before and after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at
such Assignor’s expense, such financing and continuation statements or perfection papers of similar purpose or effect relating to this Assignment, without such Assignor’s signature, as the Assignee at its option may deem appropriate and
(y) appoints the Assignee as such Assignor’s attorney-in-fact to execute any such statements in the Assignor’s name and to perform all other acts which the Assignee may deem appropriate to perfect and continue the security interest
conferred hereby. Notwithstanding the foregoing authorization, each Assignor shall at its own expense file all financing and continuation statements or perfection papers of similar purpose or effect and give such notices relating to this Assignment,
and perform all other acts, necessary or appropriate to perfect and continue the security interest conferred hereby.

proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this paragraph shall affect the right of the Assignee to serve legal process in any other manner
permitted by law or affect the right of the Assignee to bring any action or proceeding against any Assignor or any of its property in the courts of any other jurisdiction. 
 (b) BY ITS SIGNATURE BELOW WRITTEN EACH ASSIGNOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES UNDER APPLICABLE LAW ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR
OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS ASSIGNMENT, THE PARI PASSU DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

Dear Sirs, 
  

	Re:	First Priority Bahamian Mortgages with respect to the Rigs, [Vessel 1] and [Vessel 2] 

 You have requested our legal opinion with respect to a first priority statutory mortgage dated October 25, 2012 over drilling rig [Vessel 1] (the “PE Rig”) by [Vessel 1 Shipowner]
(the “PE Owner”) in favor of Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Mortgagee”) (the “PE Mortgage”) and a first priority statutory mortgage dated October 25, 2012 over drilling rig
[Vessel 2] (the “TE Rig”, together with the PE Rig, the “Rigs” and each a “Rig”) by [Vessel 2 Shipowner] (the “TE Owner”, together with the PE Owner the “Owners”
and each an “Owner”) in favour of the Mortgagee (the “TE Mortgage”, and together with the PE Mortgage, the “Mortgages” and each a “Mortgage”) and related deeds of covenants
dated October 25, 2012 (the “Original Deeds of Covenant”) as amended by Amendment No. 1 dated [            ], 2013 to each Original Deed of Covenant (the Original
Deeds of Covenant as so amended are called, together, the “Amended Deeds of Covenants” and each an “Amended Deed of Covenants”) in connection with (1) an amended and restated credit agreement dated March [ ],
2013 which amends and restates a Credit Agreement dated June 21, 2012 made by and among (i) Offshore Group Investment Limited (the “Company”) and Vantage Drilling Company, as borrowers, (ii) Vantage Drilling Company
and certain Subsidiaries thereof, as guarantors, (iii) the Lenders from time to time, as lenders, and (iv) the Royal Bank of Canada and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as collateral agent, as amended by a Second Amendment to the
Credit Agreement dated October 25, 2012 (the “Restated Credit Agreement”), (2) a new term loan agreement dated as of March [ ], 2013 among, inter alios, Offshore Group Investment Limited, and the US Borrower (as defined
therein), as co-borrowers, Vantage Drilling Company, the other guarantor party thereto, and Citibank, N.A., as term loan agent (the “2013 Term Loan Agreement”) and (3) a new indenture dated March [ ], 2013, among the Company,
Vantage Drilling Company, the other guarantors named therein, the trustee and the noteholder collateral agent regarding the             % Senior Secured First Lien Notes due 2023 (the
“2013 Indenture”). 

	1.	Interpretation 

 In this
opinion: 
 “Act” means the Merchant Shipping Act (as amended) Ch 268 of the Revised Statute Laws of The Bahamas, 2007
Edition. 
 “Documents” means the documents listed in Clause 2 of this opinion. 

“law” includes any order of any governmental, judicial, regulatory or other authority compliance with which is considered by us
to be mandatory. 
 “Security Documents” means the Mortgages and the Amended Deeds of Covenants. 

 

	2.	Documents 

 For the
purpose of this opinion we have examined copies of the following documents: 
  

	 	(i)	a Transcript of Register dated March [ ], 2013 with respect to each Rig issued by the London office of the Bahamas Maritime Authority; 

 

	 	(ii)	the Mortgages; 

  

	 	(iii)	the Amended Deeds of Covenants; 

  

	 	(iv)	a Designation Letter, delivered on March [ ], 2013 by the Company to the Pari Passu Collateral Agent and the Existing Notes Trustee (as those terms are defined therein
) (the “Designation Letter”); 

  

	 	(v)	the Restated Credit Agreement; 

  

	 	(vi)	the 2013 Term Loan Agreement; and 

  

	 	(vii)	the 2013 Indenture. 

  

	3.	Assumptions 

 In giving
this opinion, we have assumed that: 
  

	 	3.1	Authenticity of original documents: all signatures, seals and markings on the Documents are, as appears to us, authentic; 

  
 2 

	 	3.2	Conformity of copies: the copies of the Documents presented to us conform to the originals; 

 

	 	3.3	Authorization: the due capacity and authority of all persons executing the Documents and that the same have been duly executed by the parties to it; and

  

	 	3.4	Pari Passu Obligations: that the Obligations under the 2013 Term Loan Agreement and the 2013 Indenture have been properly designated by the Company as
“Other Pari Passu Obligations” under the Amended and Restated Intercreditor Agreement dated October 25, 2012 and the Designation Letter. 

  

	4.	Opinion 

 Based on and
relying on the assumptions set out above and subject to the qualifications set out below, we are of the opinion that: 
  

	 	4.1	The PE Rig is permanently registered under the Bahamian flag at the port of Nassau, The Bahamas in the name and ownership of the PE Owner, free from any mortgage, lien
or other registered encumbrance except the PE Mortgage; 

  

	 	4.2	The TE Rig is permanently registered under the Bahamian flag at the port of Nassau, The Bahamas in the name and ownership of the TE Owner, free from any mortgage, lien
or other registered encumbrance except the TE Mortgage; 

  

	 	4.3	Each of the Mortgages has been duly registered and recorded in the Registry of Bahamian ships in favour of the Mortgagee and each such Mortgage is in full force and
effect notwithstanding the execution of the Amended Deeds of Covenants, the Restated Credit Agreement, the 2013 Term Loan Agreement and the 2013 Indenture and continues to validly secure the Secured Obligations (as defined in the Amended Deeds of
Covenants applicable to each such Mortgage); 

  

	 	4.4	Each Mortgage validly secures such future amounts as may be issued under the 2013 Indenture respecting any future series of notes that are issued under one or more
Supplemental Indentures thereunder and such increased commitments that may be made under the Restated Credit Agreement. No further filings are necessary or required to be made with the Registry of Bahamian ships in respect of the Security Documents,
the Restated Credit Agreement, the 2013 Term Loan Agreement and the 2013 Indenture; 

  

	 	4.5	The Amended Deed of Covenants applicable to each Mortgage constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Owner enforceable in accordance with its terms in
favour of the Mortgagee; 

  

	 	4.6	Each Mortgage constitutes a legal, valid and binding first priority statutory mortgage over the applicable Rig enforceable in accordance with its terms in favour of the
Mortgagee securing the “Secured Obligations” as defined in the respective Amended Deed of Covenants; 

  
 3 

	 	4.7	It is not necessary under the laws of The Bahamas that the Mortgagee or any of the parties to the Security Documents be licensed, authorized, qualified or otherwise
entitled to carry on business in The Bahamas (i) for the entering into, execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of the Security Documents or (ii) to enable the Mortgagee to enforce its rights under the Security Documents;

  

	 	4.8	Neither the Mortgagee nor any of the parties to the Security Documents will be deemed to be resident, domiciled, carrying on business or subject to taxation in The
Bahamas by reason of the negotiation, preparation, execution, recording (as applicable) or performance or enforcement of, and/or receipt of any payment due from any Owner under the Security Documents; 

 

	 	4.9	The Security Documents are in proper form for their enforcement in the courts of The Bahamas; 

 

	 	4.10	No taxes of The Bahamas are imposed by withholding or otherwise on any payment to be made by any Owner under the Security Documents or are imposed on or by virtue of
the execution or delivery or recording (as applicable) of the Security Documents or any document or instrument to be executed or delivered under the Security Documents; 

 

	 	4.11	No stamp or registration fee, duty or similar taxes or charges are payable in respect of the Security Documents except in relation to the registration of the Mortgages
(which sums have been paid) or if enforcement of the Security Documents are to be sought in The Bahamas otherwise than executing a foreign judgment, in which event filing fees are payable at the commencement of any cause, matter or proceeding
brought under the divisions of the Supreme Court in accordance with the Supreme Court (Amendment) Rules 2010; 

  

	 	4.12	No registration, notarization, filing, recording, enrollment, or other official action in any court public office or elsewhere in The Bahamas is necessary or advisable
to create, validate, perfect, establish or maintain the priority of the security created by the Security Documents or to ensure the legality, enforceability or admissibility in evidence of the Security Documents (with the exception of the Mortgages
which must and have been registered at the Bahamas Maritime Authority); 

  

	 	4.13	All authorisations, approvals, consents, licenses, exemptions, filings, registrations, recordings, notarizations, payments of taxes and duties and other matters,
official or otherwise required or advisable in connection with the entry into, execution, delivery, performance, validity, enforceability and admissibility in evidence of the Security Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby have been
obtained or effected and are in full force and effect;

	 	4.14	The property which is the subject of the Security Documents is legally capable of being mortgaged or charged under the laws of The Bahamas and the security thereby
created will confer a valid and effective charge and claim over such property in favour of the Mortgagee which will rank prior to the general creditors (except the maritime liens described in 4.16 below) of each Owner in the event of its liquidation
and/or bankruptcy; 

  

	 	4.15	Any lien exercisable by a ship-builder or repairer over a ship in his possession shall take priority over all claims arising after such possession was taken but shall
be postponed to those claims (including those under the Security Documents) which were created before the time of taking possession; 

  

	 	4.16	The maritime liens set out in Section 277 ((i) wages and other sums due to the master, officers and other members of each Rig’s complement in respect of their
employment on such Rig, (ii) port, canal, and other waterway dues and pilotage dues and any outstanding fees payable in respect of each Rig, (iii) claims against an Owner in respect of loss of life or personal injury occurring, whether on
land or on water, in direct connection with the operation of a Rig, (iv) claims against any Owner, based on tort and not capable of being based on contract, in respect of loss of or damage to property occurring, whether on land or on water, in
direct connection with the operation of a Rig, (v) claims for salvage, wreck removal and contribution in general average) of the Act shall take priority over mortgages registered under the Act or any preferential rights arising under the laws
of The Bahamas in the event of an Owner’s liquidation and/or bankruptcy and no other claim shall take priority over such mortgages or rights; 

  

	 	4.17	The choice of Bahamian law to govern the Security Documents is a valid choice of law and submission in the Amended Deed of Covenants applicable to each Mortgage to the
non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Courts of New York is a valid submission; 

  

	 	4.18	The courts of The Bahamas will award a judgment in relation to the Security Documents expressed in terms of United States Dollars in respect of any amount due and owing
under the Security Documents and/or will recognise as a valid judgment and enforce any final, conclusive and enforceable judgment obtained by the Mortgagee against any Owner in a New York court subject to 4.20 below; 

 

	 	4.19	None of the parties to the Security Documents nor any of their assets are entitled to immunity on the grounds of sovereignty or otherwise from any legal action or
proceeding (which shall include, without limitation, suit, attachment prior to judgment, execution or other enforcement); 

  

	 	4.20	 Subject to compliance with the Reciprocal Enforcement of Judgments Act, a final and conclusive judgment for a specified sum of a superior court of the
United Kingdom or certain Commonwealth Courts outside the United Kingdom (including any such judgment rendered against an Owner in connection with any action arising out of the Security Documents) may be registered in the Supreme Court of The
Bahamas. A judgment of a foreign court which is not caught by the 

  
 5 

	 	
said Act (which includes a New York, United States or an Indian Court) cannot be enforced by direct execution of the judgment but the Courts of The Bahamas will, however, recognize any final and
conclusive judgment in personam handed down by a foreign court which is not caught by the said Act as a valid judgment and permit the same to found the basis of a fresh action in The Bahamas and should give a judgment based thereon without there
being a re-trial of the merits provided that: 

  

	 	(a)	It was for a sum of money (other than a sum of money paid in respect of taxes or other penalty); 

 

	 	(b)	Such court had proper jurisdiction over the parties subject to such judgment; 

 

	 	(c)	Such courts did not contravene the rules of natural justice of The Bahamas; 

 

	 	(d)	Such judgment was not obtained by fraud; 

  

	 	(e)	The enforcement of such judgment would not be contrary to the public policy of The Bahamas; 

 

	 	(f)	The correct procedures under the laws of The Bahamas are duly complied with; 

 

	 	(g)	The judgment is not inconsistent with a prior Bahamian judgment in respect of the same matter; and 

 

	 	(h)	Enforcement proceedings are instituted within six years after the date of judgment. 

 

	 	4.21	Based on the information presently in our possession, none of the terms of the Security Documents violates public policy in the Commonwealth of The Bahamas or the
purpose of a statute in the Commonwealth of The Bahamas reflecting that public policy; 

  

	 	4.22	Neither the execution nor delivery of the Security Documents, nor the performance of any obligations under the Security Documents by the parties thereto will contravene
any existing applicable law or regulation of The Bahamas; and 

  

	 	4.23	The courts of The Bahamas would uphold the validity of registration of the TE Rig under the laws and flag of The Bahamas, provided that a Polish court would not find
the Bahamian vessel registration void or voidable due to non-compliance by the TE Owner or Vantage Drilling Poland Sp. z o.o. with Article 10, Section 1 and/or Article 73, Section 1 and/or Article 23 of the Polish Maritime Code.

  
 6 

	5.	Qualifications 

 The
opinions expressed above are, however, subject to the following qualifications:- 
  

	 	5.1	The enforcement of the Security Documents may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, limitation of actions or other similar laws
relating to the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally. 

  

	 	5.2	Obligations or liabilities of the Owner otherwise than for payment of money may not be enforceable in The Bahamas by way of such equitable remedies as injunction or
specific performance which remedies are in the discretion of the courts. 

  

	 	5.3	Any provisions requiring any party to pay interest on overdue amounts in excess of the rate (if any) payable on such amounts before they become overdue may be
unenforceable if held by a Bahamian Court to be unconscionable and therefore a penalty. 

  

	 	5.4	If any provision of any document is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, the severance of such provision from the remaining provisions of such document will be
subject to the exercise of the discretion of a Bahamian Court. 

  

	 	5.5	Any provision in any of the Security Documents that certain calculations and/or certificates will be conclusive and binding will not be effective if such calculations
and/or certificates are fraudulent or erroneous on their face and will not necessarily prevent judicial enquiry into the merits of any claim by an aggrieved party. 

 

	 	5.6	If any party of any of the Security Documents is vested with a discretion or may determine a matter in its opinion, the courts of The Bahamas may require that such
discretion is exercised reasonably or that upon which such opinion is based is reasonable. 

  

	 	5.7	Insofar as the parties resort to the Bahamian Courts, claims may be or become subject to defenses of set-off or counterclaim. 

 

	 	5.8	Bahamian court may refuse to give effect to a purported contractual obligation to pay costs imposed upon another party in respect of the costs of any successful
litigation brought against that party and such a court may not award by way of costs all of the expenditure incurred by a successful litigant in proceedings brought before that Court. 

 

	 	5.9	If Bahamian law shall apply to the question of priorities the rules in Hopkinson v Rolt and Clayton’s Case will apply to this security and accordingly any advances
made subsequent to receipt of notice of any further mortgage on the Rig may be postponed in priority to such further mortgage. 

  

	 	5.10	Except with the leave of the Court, a mortgagee may not itself purchase a rig when exercising its power of sale if the rig is on the high seas or in waters of a country
whose laws prohibit a lender from purchasing security it holds as mortgagee.

 This opinion is confined to and given on the basis of the laws of the Commonwealth of The Bahamas as
currently applied by the courts of the said Commonwealth. We have not investigated and we do not express or imply any opinion on the laws of any other jurisdiction, and we have assumed no other law would affect the opinion stated herein. 

This opinion is addressed to you and is solely for you and your successors and assigns benefit and the benefit of your legal advisers and is not to be
relied upon by any person or legal entity other than yourselves (and your successors and assigns) and your legal advisers. 
 Yours faithfully,
